A woman who had the gumption to tell another passenger on her train that his mobile phone gaming was a nuisance was viciously beaten for her trouble, leaving her with a broken jaw, we hear.
The man (21) was apparently engrossed in a game on his mobile one morning on his commute to work, when the lady in front of him told him “You’re being a nuisance!”
He took exception to this, told her to “Shut the hell up!”, and then proceeded to punch her repeatedly in the face, an attack which left her with a broken jaw.
He was arrested immediately after.
The man says of his crime “When I was warned like that, it just went straight to my head.”
The lady victim was severely injured, but is expected to make a complete recovery in a month.
It is not clear if his gaming was proving noisy, but it seems unlikely he would have been warned for silent gaming. We also do not hear which game it was which proved good enough to provoke such a violent outburst.
Via Asahi.
Japanese trains generally observe a strict informal ban on using mobile phones in an audible manner, though it is otherwise common to see passengers messaging or using handhelds. It is exceptional for other passengers to do anything but studiously ignore those flouting this ban.
Whilst it in no way excuses his actions, the choice of language on the lady’s part probably contributed, as it was an extremely brusque “You’re a nuisance!”, as opposed to a typically Japanese polite phrasing, such as “I beg your pardon, would you be kind enough to refrain from doing that, as it is inconveniencing other passengers?”
Clearly, it never hurts to be polite to strangers, but the converse can be quite painful.

why not?
Well, apparently she didn't stop there as other source say he did ignore her, and grab his phone and close it for him, which resulted end of his hard work.
Ok I would have snapped maybe not punched someone but if that's the case I really can't blame the man. Bitch had it coming, hopefully she learned a lesson.
This puts a new meaning to the phrase "Hardcore gamer"
Wondering if this dude would hit the annoyed person if it's a big muscular man instead? I bet he won't, just like a weakling.
But i can sympathy with him; some months ago in a subway, i'm preparing to use my laptot to watch some animes while an old lady(in her forthy maybe) who was siting in front of me get some exaspered face, like i'm a nuisance, i asked neutrally to her what is wrong? She answered that i'm gonna be a nuisance with my music. My destop wasn't even power on so what's with the bitching?! Even after leaving to my station she still watching me with hate! She's lucky that i'm in a good mood this morning but seriously, i really wanted to punch this old hag! Just Fate/Stay in the Kitchen!
That's a real competitor for the worst pun I've ever seen. It doesn't help that I thought the game was an overrated piece of mass-consumer bullshit.
Dude, your commute must suck if you're on the subway long enough to actually take out a laptop and watches animeS on it before your stop. But I can also guess your commute isn't that crowded since you actually have the space to get a seat and have enough room to take out the laptop.
A Broken jaw for calling him a nuisance.. No need to wonder what'll happen to her if she grabbed and snapped that guy's phone instead.
ps:Good to know that 2channers are actually pure gentlemens..
take that bitch
gb2/ktchn/
AND MAKE ME A SAMMICH! :P
dont fuck with a gamer when hes hauling ass on his psp.
Some of these Japanese people tend to get real uppity now and again for something that is clearly not their business. I'm sure that woman wont wag her tongue so freely again.
Even in NYC nobody would go "hey buddy, can you turn it down ?" forget about "Shut the hell up!". That former would get you the bird, the latter two hold stainless steel rounds to your chest.
Oh, wow. He's nuts.
And that's a rare case of "бей бабу по ебалу" in real life.
He was DEFINITELY playing Dragonball Evolution
xD
Urusai urusai urusai!
I'd definitely not punch Shana's face, but rather make sweet love to it. :P
But I bet this has something to do with salaryman stress and constrained hatred towards his boss or something...
Doesn't justify his actions though.
I feel like snapping half the time. Oh, yeah, snap, yeah, snap...violent snap
I don't care what anyone says, ol' boy needs his ass severly kicked.
End of story.
If you disagree, I facepalm on your behalf
Why are people getting so complex about this?
He was being an annoying prick, this woman got fed up and snapped at him, then he became an even bigger prick and assaulted her.
The dude needs to go to jail for a while. He should also pay the hospital bill. If I was the old lady's son I'd put HIM in the fucking hospital.
She could have worded her statement better, but the guy shouldn't have snapped like that. I guess we can blame both parties for this incident? The female for her rather demeaning comment and the male for grossly overreacting.
Demeaning? If someone insults you and calls you names, the correct course of action is to ignore them unless they start threatening to use physical violence. The fellow traveller did less than that to the moron. He likely had anger management issues and feelings of inferiority galore.
Man, all Japanese are so brutal.
Oh wait, was that stereotyping? Nah...
Wow, everything about this seems unusual.
BOOM! HEADSHOT
Did he teabag her after?
yes he did then he started saying "counter-terrorists win"
Now if he only had a knife...
yo bitches don't distract mah from gaming
If I had been on that train, dude would have gotten my boot in his face. maybe more than once...
Get back in the kitchen and make me a sammich bitch
On the double bitch!!!!!!!!!!
He was playing a Eroge and then the 3D witch interrupts his concentration in the beautiful 2D girls and BAM!!
He attack the ugly reality.
(my hypothesis xD)
Quite intriguing...
Another hypothesis:
He didn't really do anything with his cellphone, but did in fact sleep (snoring etc.). Then, as he was waked up, he tought by the harsh language, that it must be some dick and without furhter thinking beat the hell out of the bitch. Because of the deformation on her face, from the first punch, he didn't recognize her as a woman and kept punching her.
It's no wonder the Japanese are so anti social among strangers and have a policy to look down and mind their own business.
Not new to me. Here in L.A. this can happen to anybody, not just mobile gamers.
I would have kicked him in the crotch so hard, his future children would be wiped out of existence from the sheer force of the ball destroying.
The sheer amount of misogyny in these comments is amazing, though.
I'm a bit surprised myself. Even 2ch was more sympathetic than this.
Yeay! We beat 2ch!! Way to go guys!!!
...
....
Wait a sec...
We beat 2ch on the "bitch got what she deserved" category. A matter of pride, I must say. /sarcasm
More seriously, I only know that he ended up getting arrested, but to beat the women to the point that he broke her jaw... Wasn't anyone able to simply stop him, either by way of submission or a good old ass kicking or were they too busy looking to the other side?
Everyone loves a spectacle, Mana. Whether it be a wedding or a hanging.
This even reminds me of the case of a female family member who was beaten by her ex-husband on a bus, here in Portugal, and everyone applauded like it was some kind of gladiatorial arena.
I'm used to stuff like this from 4chan and the like and have seen it here and there on this site, but this is just a complete 180 from what I'm used to Sankaku denizens saying.
Besides, what cell phone game can possibly be that fucking amazing that it warrants this?
You're a brave man for dealing with all this Artefact; keep it up.
NA traffic is closer to 45-50%.
Sankaku Complex is not 4chan, and frankly seeing the level of what comes out of 4chan leads me to question the tolerance lent to that place here.
The general anonymity of the internet, plus you can post as anonymous, plus it seems like half these articles have to contains comments related to 4ch somehow. I think Alexa said around 1/3 of the traffic comes from the US, which makes me think a lot of the people commenting are 16-24 year old weaboo trolls.
Just a guess.
When it comes to gaming, Westerners can be very hardcore too. Just look at the 360 controller soap and the Dualshock 3 soap....
tl;dr
Just chill the fuck down people....
maybe everyone of those who replied got yelled by some older women when playing °L°
We are just joking Sweetie. You should know by now that women can make men do ANYTHING they want, try it out.
4chan comments need to *stay* in 4chan, folks.
That man was most definitely NOT a gentlemen. But what could the other passengers do? Too many other cases of 'No Good Deed Goes Unpunished' articles to count have shown up here even. :(
We'd all like to think like we'd be any different, but that's fantasy, not reality.
I'm inclined to think some external factor is involved in attracting these kinds of comments in this case; I couldn't guess as to what though.
I'm in total agreement. I'm having a hard time stomaching all the "ugly bitch dsrvd it lololol"-ing I'm seeing in this comments list. Honestly, guys, what the hell? The guy broke her fucking JAW!
can't act surprised when the rats come, if you've just finished painting your house with cheez whiz.
was this kind of response really, actually a surprise?
lolol welcome to teh intarnets
Except maybe in response to direct threats to yourself or others, I would be reluctant to accept battering someone for saying something. The man's actions are antisocial and I hope they find a cage to put him in and that his victim can obtain remuneration.
In determining that I don't even need to consider the gender of his victim or what he was doing. If those data suddenly engender a negative impression of the victim, then I would reflect on whether I had been dropped on my head one too many times.
The circumstances may be interesting for explaining why the events occurred: the differences in expected gender roles might influence the degree of offense taken and the willingness to act, while the excessive attention paid to the game might have depleted the aggressor's capacity for self-restraint. However those are things I would leave to experts, and don't really change the desire to not be accosted while using public transportation for giving a passenger a case of butt-hurt.
The geniuses you are referring to that treat the Internet like a toilet would be in the line for beatings if we were tolerating such things in our societies.
yes, im rather supprised to, i thought sankaku comments useualy have a higher standard than this, maby one or two arseholes. I guess that's what happens when a site that allows anonymous commenting gets popular. ( not that im complaining or anything, as long as the report on this site keeps up to its high, high standards, it dosnt matter too much what idiots comment)
Equality for all. If he had done the same thing to another man then what's the problem? Hell if somebody interrupted my gaming session it wouldn't matter their sex, I would tell them to either stfu or gtfo.
hope it not the DS's GTA he's playing ._.
pimp had to choke a bitch
Bitch got owned
I wish the guy told her "Know you place BITCH!"
just joking... hahaha
He won't be booked for assault, but rather violence against women.
Sigh at society.
Lol. Like in the South Park episode, the one when Cartman is jailed by "hate crimes".
What?
must be an ugly lady.i dun think a man can lay a finger on a pretty woman
Dude,you really don`t know how the real world works!
if that lady hot like in OP picture maybe he will forget the game that he play and focusing on that lady... except he was a game maniac...
If he likes the lady, he would rape her without compunction. And the rest of the passengers would take part in the raping (apart from the ungly and old people). Welcome to the hentai land!
tell that to Chris Brown. Zing!
Well, there was the umbrella song, that would make anyone want to beat the singer with an umbrella at least after a while.
lold irl
but Rhianna had the word "punching" and "bag" on her forehead
LMAO!!!!!!!!! Touche Sir Touche!
I doubt it, anger clouds judgement so he probably wouldn't have even noticed anyway, not that it even matters.
lol so ugly women deserve to be hurt or killed because they're not pretty?
I guess it's a vicious cycle for being an ugly woman. You get beat for being ugly causing them to be more ugly, which then leads to more beatings.
Seriously though, it's really all women should be beaten so they their shut their mouths and know role is in the kitchen and bedroom only. Everyone knows that.
Damn right budd!!
What a fag.
And the others just.... watched?
I think in Japan if you want to help someone, for your own protection you should do it at a non close proximity (such as calling the police) to not get directly involved. I think we all seen the other articles where people try to be a good guy but get into trouble/arrested etc...
sadly it happens not only in japan
they watched... THEN informed the police lol. some people need to learn how to step up =/
if a woman is getting HER FACE beaten in front of you, this least you can do is say, "uhh.. please stop?"
sure ur risking a punch in the mouth, but who cares! you'll look like a hero!
I'd be like...."Hey Pal, your sensely beating of the female is interupting my half-naked Manga"...some other guys going "Dude!- I was trying to image her naked and the you gotta go and..."
We gotta know what game he was playing! I am sorry about the women though.
Well the police did arrest him so...
Bitches Get Stitches xD
Apparently her face was a "nuisance" to this gentlemen.
Or he thought that Falcon Punch really solves everything. XD
no no no you've got it all wrong Vetus since the man who punched the woman was in fact Captain Falcon!!!
doesn't sound like a "gentle" anything to me. much less a man. or even humanoid to me.
He probably won't beat her up if shes pretty or cute.
then that'd made her being rape? >.>
Krauser will come and rape her 1st before him if that's true :)
lol wtf??
that's what happens when you don't have
EARPHONE!
Most phones still don't have standard 1/8" earphone ports...
Which pisses me off to no end. D:
Thats what you get for being impolite.
true and hopefully she learned a valuable lesson:
"never get between an obsessed gamer and his games"
and this is how it happened to her
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-AQ5iaNZN_s&feature=channel_page [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-AQ5iaNZN_s&feature=channel_page]
I hope they throw the book at this fucker. Any man that hits a woman doesn't deserve to be called a man.
A real man is equal and would punch both genders.
I'd do the same thing to that bitch if it were up to me.
Of course. Because man or woman, insult or no insult, beating people is how respectable people do things.
Well duh. I think it is already universally accepted that world without people would be a much better place.
more: if people could just beat down other people, there wouldn't be need of lawyers, wars, etc. it would be a cleaner world.
Well given that the woman still knows how to act like a woman.
I can understand gentlemen were supposed to be polite but that wouldn't apply to impolite people like that, giving in to those people just made them more spoilt.
Your a woman then. Any man who puts a women before himself is gay. Get a backbone.
nope...
if the woman is very~ very~ bitches and annoying we should smackdown her without hesitated...
i dont care... bitch is bitch and it should be to shutdown...
And the misguided reinforcement of negative gender norms and the concept of the "weaker sex" continues. Statements like this do nothing to help women. Get over your macho ass.
