Police have finally managed to catch the deranged Kuroko fan whose many threats of mayhem and murder caused so much disruption to events and shops handling Kuroko no Basket related products, surprising many by not being a crazed fujoshi after all.
The 36-year-old Osaka man of uncertain occupation was arrested in connection with a campaign of criminal intimidation waged for over a year and the cause of much exasperation to Kuroko fans and embarrassment to police.
For sending menacing chemicals to the alma mater of the Kuroko mangaka and posting some 250 threatening letters to a variety of businesses throughout Japan, he faces numerous charges of interfering with official duties.
Police say he admits the charges, saying “I’m sorry, I lost.”
Each count carries a maximum of 3 years imprisonment or a 500,000 yen fine.
He apprehension is the cause of some celebration online – and plenty of speculation:
“Finally!”
“Took their damn time…”
“Well done.”
“That much evidence and look how long it took to get him.”
“36…”
“So it was an older guy after all.”
“At least it wasn’t a fujoshi!”
“I so thought this was a forty-something fujoshi.”
“Sorry for doubting you, fujoshi.”
“What kind of grudge did this guy have…”
“This idiot caused chaos all over the country.”
“He was more rotten than the fujoshi in the end.”
“Finally we can have Kuroko at Comiket unmolested again!”
“I can’t help but think there were multiple perpetrators and he was just a copycat.”
“We still don’t know what his actual motive was…”
“Seriously, what could drive a 36-year-old man to this level of hatred over Kuroko no Basket?”

“I can’t help but think there were multiple perpetrators and he was just a copycat.”
It was a Stand Alone Complex.
Rejoice, everyone !
Now Croco can play with his balls in public again.
This is the Japanese police remember, the chance of the person actually being guilty of any of the charges even with a signed confession is at best 50/50.
That's what I thought. Cops can always coerce a confession if they want to.
Like everyone everywhere, it's more important for them to look good than to actually be doing good.
SC doesn't elaborate much on the arrest, but the actual evidence is pretty damning: his backpack had been identified from footage from a previous incident and when they spotted him with his backpack, they followed him as he travelled between prefectures and arrested him right as he was about to deposit more threatening letters in a mailbox. His backpack was full of similar material.
That's the first thing that came into my mind when I read this.
However, it should be noted that police have fabricated news of arrested and fed them to media outlets to confuse the real perps before.
...Then again, this is the NPA we're talking about. Their high success rate brings a lot of suspicion with the rise and empowering of Yakuza organizations and the revelation of forced confessions, so I ain't holding my breath.
You are obviously not Japanese or you woule know that everyone who is not Employed in a Goverment Paid Position is instantly guilty, and has even with the best lawyers only a slight chance to avoid the Prison let alone the Money charges.
I feel bad for the fujoshi that were targeted and accused by this nonsense. How could they be suspicious if they are just as sad and creepy as their male counterparts?
It seems seriously fucked up to blame fujoshi, when they were the ones harmed.
That's utter nonsense. Being part of group A does not exclude a person from acting against group A.
Well, you know what they say - one bad apple and all that.
Since when fujiyoshi is harmed? They are just wrongly accused in this case, and not harmed..
Anyway, fujisyoshi was accused because they make a big part of Kuroki fanbase, and they are known extreme obsession with pairing , so that is why they are the first one to be suspected.
They were "harmed" by not having their homo-erotic Basketball doujin in any events because of this person.
Someone explain to me how fujoshi being the main fanbase makes them a suspect??? Why would a fan do this?
Its like saying 'hey someone made threats against Mcdonalds and how its animal cruelty, I bet it was that guy who comes in every day to order a big mac and not the PETA guys outside!'
When people get obsessive about or feel strongly for something, they create their own idealized expectations and become very upset when things dosn't go the direction they want.
That scenario is more common than a random person hating something enough that they'd go to great lengths to destroy it.
>feeling bad for fujoshi
ishygddt
uh...he wasnt a Kuroko fan. This whole thing happened because he hated it. Just another deranged otaku in the end, but sure, make fujoshi out to be the villains.
I bet American police investigators would have had this guy caught in less than a month. Japan Police are so incompetent.
Less than a month is pushing it.
But with all the supposed terrorist threats happening on American soil lately, they'd probably mobilize their entire state police, federals, even defense intelligence. Not exactly the kind of response you'd see from a country in a state of peace, but United States are so paranoid right now that I can't think of how much more fucked up this Jap guy would be if he pulled this off in the US.
Nailed those faggots behind the boston bombing in record time.
Yeah, because the US police did such a great job with Bin Laden and the 2001 anthrax letter attacks.
Seriously though, I don't think the US authorities would give much of a shit about this kind of thing. They're too busy spying on people for profit to care about petty domestic terrorism.
To clarify, my comment isn't implying that JP police aren't incompetent. I just don't think the US police is any less incompetent.
“Finally we can have Kuroko at Comiket unmolested again!”
I wish we didn't though.
Don't worry, it's Comiket so Kuroko will probably be molested after all.
I figured Comiket was mainly FOR molesting characters.
I wonder what the guy had done that the police were able to say they traced back to him?
Seriously, what could drive a 36-year-old man to this level of hatred over Kuroko no Basket?”
they had bigger balls to play with!
He just hates the idea of hordes of women not being in the kitchen.
He is definitely a WIZARD level OTAKU with 9000 power level. Kuroko you shall not passs... Wait??? BUSTED....
The Je!ly School in Tokyo is ready to take him
"I lost."
It was all just one big game. Fucking onani master/zero/kira/god of conquests, how could you?
How could you?
eh? why would it be a fujoshi? if anything, it could be an anti-fujoshi.
is that rumor that it was some homo who the author cockblocked from another guy in highschool true? i don't remember the details too well, but it kinda went like that.
$5000, that's it?! That's all you get for terrorism in Japan?! The country where accidentally discharging a single firearm round outside of it's designated areas will get you life in prison?!
Japanese police are fairly incompetent at the big stuff and prone to arresting innocent people and torturing them till they confess, so we'll have to see if the incidents actually stop.
Oh, no. The only enemy of that caricature of a manga about Basketball is gone... Jokes apart, I'm happy they caught him.
You should try to learn how to make a joke since your sense of humour sucks.
Who's joking? It IS a caricature of a manga about basketball.
Why did so many people think it was a fujoshi in the first place? He always claimed to me a male.
*be
Because people lie on the internet?
Well, they are right to believe that, as women do in fact lie.
The capacity to lie is not limited to gender.
Because sexists think women lie?
Because Kuroko manga attracting fujiyoshi the most with all its Bishōnen character, so many would assume one of the them gone crazy and start the death threat.
probably he was a Buzzer Beater fanatic or Slam Dunk.
he was some sort of butthurt NEET, that's for sure
“Seriously, what could drive a 36-year-old man to this level of hatred over Kuroko no Basket?”
The absence of personal life can do that to you and even more...
“I’m sorry, I lost.”
He thought it was some sort of a game?
This is why you otakus should stay in your mom's basement or maybe deeper beneath ground LOL
No; they should be pulled out of there and put in concentration camps. No wonder Ishihara thinks they're genetically defective. Not that I support that degenerate old bastard, though; he should be put into retirement before he transforms Japan into a Reich.
Shitty real life conditions and high expectations/ideals inevitably leads to otaku-like people.
It's like cutting a hose to stop the water flow instead of turning off the tap it's connected to.
You're confusing otaku with hikikimori, you loser. Otaku is obsession. If you collect anything, that's being Otaku.
Actually he's not. hikki is just a subculture of otaku, like like fujoshi. Stupid weaboo.
just_dont_reply.jpg
You mean they should chained down there instead
He probably did exactly that.
