Those might or might not be plot holes. They could be holes in the shikis' plan. Having lived this strange life for a couple of hundred years, Sunako is certainly a bit mad. As well as desperate.
Or there might be a way the plan could work that we have not thought of. Perhaps they don't actually have to kill, and can control and farm enough compliant normal humans for a population of a few dozen shiki/jinrou. Perhaps they can get away with not killing too unusual a number of humans in the surrounding villages. Perhaps they can make do with some animal blood. Perhaps something else. This doesn't all have to be explained at this point. Or at any point, for me.
These points may have been discussed before, but I haven't read all of your posts and the replies. Sorry, just as you take so much pleasure in tearing this show apart, I take very little pleasure in that. For me, whether there are plot holes or not, it was one of the 3-4 top shows of the year. I've never seen anything quite like it, in pacing, build-up, atmosphere, characters, et al.
