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?”

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....
Wow... now I found a reason to be proud of the Japanese police.
They couldn't catch him over a year, so there's little to be proud. Probably were busy caching all those horrible man's who walked same road with girl's.
Actually you don't need to walk down the same road with girl. I was caught for being a "foreigner" true story.
To be fair, they just wasted my time and ruin my day, but that's all thank to my Japanese friend, i wonder if i didn't have my Japanese friend at the time what kind of trouble i could be in.
The reason i got caught is because "I speak a foreign language with my friend"
Yes, my Japanese friend can speak my language.
They probably just decided that 1year is enough and got some random dude to take all the blame.
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.
“Finally we can have Kuroko at Comiket unmolested again!”
I wish we didn't though.
I figured Comiket was mainly FOR molesting characters.
Don't worry, it's Comiket so Kuroko will probably be molested after all.
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?
Because sexists think women lie?
Well, they are right to believe that, as women do in fact lie.
The capacity to lie is not limited to gender.
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
"That's right I am Kira"
No, I am Kira
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.
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.
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.
>feeling bad for fujoshi
ishygddt
i knew it was an osakan all along... those crazy japanese rednecks
This is why you otakus should stay in your mom's basement or maybe deeper beneath ground LOL
just_dont_reply.jpg
He probably did exactly that.
You mean they should chained down there instead
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.
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 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.
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.
“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?
