I like the more serious moments of this anime, but I really don’t like the comedic bits, especially from those who I can only still see as (nearly) indiscriminate murderers.
I also really don’t like the way this show is withholding information. Yuru had ample opportunity to ask about why they murdered the village, but only asked about his parents (except the why), even when Asa gave them a perfect hook when she brought up the Higashi village. Which is pretty crucial to everything and possibly also why his parents left. It feels like an artificial way to keep their intentions a mystery, but at the same time they want to us sympathize with them.
Tbf, we did get a pretty big hint - it sounds like Higashi village has been sending assassins after Asa. Also, their conversation was interrupted. I imagine he thought he would have time for a longer discussion.
We did get a hint and yes it was interrupted, but the convo itself had plenty of room to ask for it. When she dropped the hint, Yuru barely responded to it.
