Nope

Still, this isn't that abstract, since it's still dealing with real things in the real world. Many believe that in this world, there are those things that are true, and those that obviously aren't. This divides reality into two extremes: truth and falsehood. But, since we have two extremes, logically one can imagine a boundary between those two extremes - the border between truth and lies. If one were to manipulate this border, suddenly things that were pure fantasy (flying pigs, for the sake of argument) have become reality - or things from reality have ceased to exist. This is how Yukari is said to have invaded the moon - by manipulating the border between truth and lies, as applied to the reflection of the moon on a pond, she was able to make the reflection of the moon into a manifestation of the actual moon, and so send her youkai army onto it. This is what's truly amazing about Yukari's power - the ability to manipulate the border between completely abstract concepts allows her to fundamentally change reality as we know it (at least in terms of two abstract concepts).

Welcome to purgatory

>There's no such thing as an overly complicated thought.

Let me reiterate: Yukari is a youkai. Her thought process is not human. Of course we can try to interpret her actions in a human way, but we should always be aware that we're viewing her through a biased lens.

Think of it this way: it is already a stretch to attribute human thoughts to domesticate animals like dogs and cats. Some people don't feel such animals can ever really "love" or "want" things, yet in normal conversation it is often said that dogs "love" their owners, or that cats "want" to sleep all day.

Go a little further out from domesticated animals: do bears, whales, and owls have humanlike thoughts?

Consider that these animals at least share our environment, not to mention the fact that we are all connected in an evolutionary sense. Yet we are still hesistant to allow that they think like us.

Then consider that youkai are mythical, alien, supernatural creatures, effectively MONSTERS from another world. You're telling me they're going to find a /jp/ autist "charming". Alright then.

And? So does Komachi. All the time.

Well, enjoy the show.

The crawling chaos certainly has a huge hat in that pic.

It's been a while since she last ate a human.
