Are youkai able to feel love as we humans do?

Is fresco Jesus related to gimpling.jpg?

Only with other youkai, humans are just animals.

Probably not. Romance didn't exist in traditional Japan. Marriages were arranged and for social/political/sexual/tax reasons. Love was tacked on after due to globalization.

>> No.10289780

Of course they are.

>> No.10289782

I'm sure there are multiple youkai characters that have expressed something close to love before in even canon works.

At least you can look at the half youkais and ponder upon how they were born.

Humans can love animals romantically, you know.

>> No.10289836

Are we talking generally or Touhou canon here? In both cases I will say "yes, probably", but of course that depends on what you mean by "love".

Also can't forget that there are youkai who used to be human.

Which is why they are disgusting creatures no better than the other animals that they fuck.

Who's laughing now when their faggy asses are sealed in Gensokyo and are dependent on our fear when the rest of humanity enjoys the safety of the youkai-free Earth.
Gensokyo is like a zoo for endangered species and Reimu is the groundskeeper.

Beast youkai seem likely. Tengu lay eggs.
I wouldn't think medicine, kogasa or the ghosts and undead would be very fertile.

Not as likely as you'd think. Unless you count their animal stages of life. Reproducing in a youkai stage is unnecessary for the survival of their species, and since it's the oldest animals that turn youkai, they may be past their menopause already.

As far as I know, only humans and whales have it.

If youkai feed on fear and infamy to sustain themselves, and are born from scary stories and tales, what do half-youkai feed on?
Serious question.

>> No.10291588

>>10291581
I'm sure they can just eat normal food to sustain themselves.

>> No.10291994

They very frequently do in folklore, in fact you can even turn into a youkai from excessive love (and jealousy). You grow those tiny horns and get the power to curse the shit out of whichever dirty skank who dares to look at your husband the wrong way.
