This is so tragic. how could a person be so disgusting.. AND THE FACT that it’s easy to do this to idols because they aren’t being protected is DISGUSTING.
@@almilall her case was worse, the fact that all those disgusting people are free, makes me never want to visit japan, although it used to be my dream county
He is absolutely going to come back and hurt her again after his term is over. He was already getting aggressive when she was testifying at the court, which already showed that he was not apologetic about what he did.
I know it's their job as his attorney, but it's absolutely disgusting to me that they argued that the attack was "spur of the moment" and not premeditated. Um, he brought a knife to the venue. How is that NOT premeditated? I hope for the woman's continued recovery from this reprehensible act.
@@Ifaeya Because someone needs to do it. They have to defend the alleged guilty to be able to defend the alleged innocent too. Also making it a fair trial allows it so that the ones that are guilty (hopefully not falsely though) cannot appeal the verdict. The law area is already very complicated thing, and we need to allow a fair trial for everyone, because even now people are getting falsely convicted. Imagine how it would be if no one is getting defended, it would make it another witch hunt where everyone gets stoned. Of course there is the "corrupted" defenders that don't care about who they are defending, but many do care and try to defend the alleged innocent ones. I wouldn't be able to be a lawyer/attorney either, because I'm too emotionally charged to be fair. Edit: Also sometimes it's not even about if the alleged is guilty (when it's an obvious one like in this case), it's about how severe the verdict is aka, life/death sentence or multiple years. Obviously he is guilty with so much evidence and I hope he got the sentence he deserved or even more.
@@Ifaeya Sometimes I wonder if they feel guilt after defending a criminal and winning the case, knowing deep down that they disagreed with the criminal personally
The police do not protect people. They help the system to punish people for committed crimes. Bodyguards are protecting people. It's the agency's fault. They have to protect their idols better. Because they create an image that everyone desires.
I can’t believe I’ve been into kpop/idols for eight years and never heard of this. This should be a cautionary tale in the community. So sad, I hope she’s resting well now.
But japanese police can't or else the crime rates on their district rise up. And their selfish police department will feel the shame that they have higher crime rates than other districts. Same thing happens with chikan/molesters. Many women get molested in public areas, but police refuse to do anything because they don't want crime rates to go up in their district.
I feel so sorry for this girl being hurt by a crazy stalker who didn't get noticed by his idol. Jpop/rock & other Asian idols need to be protected from obsessed stalkers who are very troubled people and are living in a delusion/fantasy. I've heard about idols and celebrities being stalked by sasaengs who are older or younger than them and won't leave said idol alone until they have been noticed by their idol.
There have been other Idol Anime that does this. Two of them off the top of my head are 22/7 and Wake Up Girls. Also, unless you've been in the J-Idol Scene, you wouldn't know too much about it except for the ones that go International. Been in it for 13 years and while I missed this incident, I was there during the Yamaguchi incident and several others. I'm not proud of it, but, I still support them
@@Odd_Cinderella There's also the terrifying Perfect Blue by the legend himself, Satoshi Kon, though this one though kind of focuses more on the idols' mental health, but the stalker is also terrifying.
He said: "I'm really sorry for having caused great trouble to Ms Tomita" Great trouble? This POS was determined to make it so she never drew a breath again. You don't stab someone 61 times because you were having a lapse in judgement that day. He came to end her. I doubt he is sorry and he deserves a longer sentence.
This is so horrible on so many levels. I hope Mayu is getting the help she needs both mental and physically. Her company and law enforcement let her down and should be called out for it. Unfortunately we have very sick minded people in this world and Idols need to be protected more.
I am proud of her for speaking up afterwards about the police handling of her complaints, and also seeking compensation for wages lost during her recovery. It's so sad that idols spend so much of their time in front of cameras and people, and they can never be alone, because of these kinds of fears.
This is happening to Nayeon from Twice and I'm worried for her. A guy from Germany was stalking her, going to Twice concerts and her apartment and even went on the same flight with the Twice members for Nayeon to accept his love. Even worse, he threatens to hurt her if she dates someone else
Sasaengs are a real danger to idols, this is why they must be dealt with and properly punished for the crimes they commit against the idols. No idols deserve to suffer at their hands
I can't even put in words how PISSED I was watching this. I can't even IMAGINE how she must feel, now, and for the REST OF HER LIFE. I can't even comprehend the fear she must've felt, being stabbed 61 TIMES, by a PSYCHOPATH. I hope and am praying for her to be able to live peacefully, and not in fear, or discomfort of any kind.
I can't even imagine the fear she must feel. Like every single time she leaves her house, she knows there are psychos like him out there. Like, 61 times? And that psycho only got 14 YEARS? That is not enough jail time. I am also hoping and praying for her safety, peace, comfort, and for her not to be in any fear.
the scariest thing is that this monster is gonna be released in a few years and I am pretty sure the first thing he will do is continue his revenge His apologies were only given to shorten his sentence. These light sentences are just a way to allow these criminals to continue committing horrendous acts It's ridiculous that he didnt get the Capital punishment
This is nightmare fuel. This story is something you would see in Perfect Blue. I really hope she recovers and gets the justice she deserves. Shame on the police.
Please now we don't want to lose our idols please guys protect them as much you can and those saesangs please get over your obsession it's not right please it about on someones life 😔
Oshi no ko literally portrays such unfortunate incidents very well and it's just sad and disgusting how people in the entertainment industry in japan (and other countries) aren't seen as "people" anymore by their own fans
I was once out with my friends alone to go to a restaurant, then 2 mens came and started to follow us One of my friends called the police and told them what was happening and the police dissmissed our complaints and hangs uo Luckly my fighting vibe came and i start to pull out my shoe and my friends followed, and the stalkers started running away Now i have a new rule, police is a waste of time
I have heard of this case before, this is scary , sasengs are beyond psychotic,stalking in japan i heard is a big deal ..the police at the time failed her, now this changed her life forever and lives with ptsd...i hope she is ok today
I remember walking by that toilet in Seoul where that woman was m*rdered by her coworker after stalking her. That feeling when seeing that closed of toilet stall.. seeing all those messages in front. It was only a few days prior if I recall correctly. So scary and gut wrenching..
There was a stabbing in Hong Kong at Diamond Mall only a day ago where a man started randomly stabbing a girl and her friend tried to intervene, but they both d13d
@@LM-xw1hf yes, thankfully…but he’s probably claiming mental illness to lessen his sentence. I read recently it’s been confirmed that the two girls were actually a lesbian couple by their families, so i think it is a hate crime.
It’s heartbreaking to see people being attacked and feeling unsafe even if they were idols or not and the fact that it’s mostly girl getting attacked when the world can never live without any of them 😕
Something like this must not happen again. I feel the idol industry needs to ensure safety and betterment of livelihood for the idols, including allowing dates, and obsessive fan behavior would not be tolerated. Also would've thought that Oshi no Ko turn out to be real.
14 years is nothing it should have been life if he was put in jail in 2016 like they said he is literally almost done with his sentence being 7 to 8 years in
how about: Attacker: first he gets 62 x 2 stabs (double the amount he gave her), then after he heals -> Capital Punishment Three Police Offcers: investigated, prosecuted, discharged Mayu gets compensated Millions of dollars worth of damages by the police and by the Attacker
Hearing this is giving me anxiety because Japan was supposed to be safe but I guess that’s not happening and the fact that it’s someone who isn’t just being a regular person who dislikes people it’s insane to see fans become so toxic over a small thing
She is so talented still she is having scars in her recent pics iam so devasted she suffered so much she is not in public eye now in her case police is so irresponsible she plays guitar so good but as of the attack she is not able to play and the trauma she is suffering she is so young and very aspiring still it haunts me iam sorry but somewhere i read that he shouted in court that he will kill her likr no regrets for his actions but u said he regreted his actions may be its his act for lesser punishment
Don't they have staff like managers, etc? I know idols usually have a manager who picks them up at their home if they can't drive. So I'm curious, about how Japanese idol culture works.
14 years WTF, he stabbed her 61 times!!!!! Thank god she didn't end up dying but you just know if she had he would have gotten life or the death penalty even if the action was the exact same, whether the victim dies or not these sorts of people are dangerous to society and must not be re-introduced to the outside world until they have some serious physiological help.
i wish everywhere would start taking stalking more seriously. it shouldn't take 'attempted murder' for something to even begin to happen. stalking needs to be illegal.
Did anyone else read the title and think “wtf?!?!” like honestly after watching this video I didn’t and still don’t understand how disgusting some people can be.
The fact that the police didn't believe her that she was getting threats by someone in social media, but now.She's in hospital suffering and living the worst.If police helped,she would have been much safer.
Omg. This is beyond reprehensible. I do hope that the assailant learns a lesson and should no longer have anything to do with idols. When simping goes too far, you know exactly why the hell there are cons when it comes to admiration.
Idol culture is based on creating a captive obsessive audience who can form a pseudo-romantic relationship with the idols. This brings money for the companies, but makes the idols suffer due to inhuman restrictions on their personal freedom to make her available for the fans. Not sure what governments have done to stop this.
That's not a sasaeng, that's just normal Japanese culture On top of that Japanese police being completely inactive in case of stalkers or rape is just the usual thing Heck Japanese justice even acquitted rapists because "there's indeed rape but he was too drunk to understand there was no consent"
Mayo Yamaguchi’s case is tragic cuz she hinted* that some of her group mates (one of them being the girl who was pseudopopular on produce 48 Noe Yamada) were the ones who leaked her address and also led the guys in to their apartment.
cases of stalking and obsession shouldn't be taken lightly... the more and more stories i hear about korean/japans justice system gives me more disappointment each time. they're laws are a joke, criminals are let off so lightly its disgusting
How can someone have even the slightest thought to do something like this, I get the part of being obsessed because that is something you can't really control, but to stab or physically threaten someone? Idols, not just J pop idols,(Was she part of J pop or K pop again??), need more protection.
Oh god being stalk by sasaeng is so terifying imagine how traumatizing she was it muat be hard on her the life she was living ruin by some stalker i really the idols whom i love stay safe bcz this sasaeng thing is keep happening and its really scary
Her management company definitely failed in providing adequate security for the girls. The police failed in taking the threats seriously so she should be compensated
He should have gotten a year for every stab wound she received…..he promises to never go near her again…. Yes because you can always trust a psychopath ic stalker
This is not the first time I heard Japanese stocking case that end up in deadly situation. I read about a case where a couple broke up because guy was aggressive etc. after break up he kept stocking and threatening the girl, harassed her through calls, internet and I think he followed at her work place etc. Finally he was sent to jail for two years and girl got married to someone but also changed her address, name etc and by police and gov records requested to keep her new identity and address secret and not reveal to anyone. When the stocker came out of jail he started searching her again for a long time. Finally he got a single hint and he tricked gov official to reveal her address. Soon after he stoked her area and one day when her husband left for the day he entered into the house killed her and killed himself too. The laws around stockers are very lenient and police don’t take them seriously.
