    • I'm going to do my best in my studies!
    • I'm going to make a dojinshi!
    • I'm going to live my work!

    Well, even regular yukkuri are rather squishy/stretchy (as long as you don't go to abuse levels), and since their main method of transport is jumping it would stand to reason that it can 'bow' by something similar to crouching to jump but not actually leaping.

    Maybe Yukkureimu shifted her fillings around her forehead to makes her tilt forward due to her round shape, hence she's able to bow.. And the very first thing i gave some thought in this new year is yukkuri bowing mechanism.. This'll be an interesting year..

    It's established by fanon that regular yukkuris are extremely malleable, so I don't see anything wrong with Yukkureimu bowing (or something akin to that). But then again, we're talking about a universe occupied by limbed yukkuris who flip the bird to all laws of Gensoukyou physics just because they can, so I guess my point is moot.
