autism isn't really... that's like the bastardized version of autism that's thrown around. like marisa would be autistic about learning magic, alice autistic with dolls, etc. if that's what's intended, then ok, but...

yuuka doesn't have any problem interacting with people, and she can obviously be courteous when she feels like it, she just doesn't care about hurting feelings of the thin-skinned, and she's determined to get whatever she's after. she's one of the old yokai who really act their age - when you've been around that long, why bother putting up with the bs of others? or simply why bother entertaining folks who don't entertain you? especially if you live a more secluded life and have the power to dispatch anyone who'd mess with you; there's little to no point continuing to care about appearances, and you can be completely selective with who you spend your time with. like in the games - while a lot of folks were simply in her way (with neither party backing down, mind), some of her banter, especially in pofv, could simply be viewed as a test. do you have the wit and personality to keep up with her and be worthy of her time? no, they usually didn't! not sadism, not autism, just assertive and about on a lark and not caring if others got their panties in a twist about it. or that's my take, anyway.

also, i also don't think mima is sadistic at all, but that's for another thread i suppose.
