You already know what Otaku Hunting means from this previous article. You will be glad to hear that a boy and girl of 20 were jailed for hunting otaku. Their technique was to bump into an otaku on purpose and ask them to apologize - then threatening them. Via Mainichi. Image via CobSheriff.
thats good. they should rot in jail
eh eh erm.... im new to the site and im really lost i dont understand it all... im in the uk and basically am planning to emigrate to japan in the next 5 years but im so lost about culture etc. im thinkin twice any advice people... sorry if this is the wrong place to post this message to.
Gosh, only 20 and a girl involved.
i think ur indirectly being sexism ^^" anyways good and bad in some way... but i dun believe they actually have such stuff lol. It lieks otaku hunting ain't really a crime ^^" (excluding the threatening, physical assault and stealing part lol) but those fall under those 3 category soo ya...
Why do people give in to them? They're in a public area right? Just shout if things get out of hand.
it's good to hear that otaku hunters are getting punished but the authorities needs to put more effort in protecting otakus from otaku hunters
Violence knows no age and gender (I am not for different treatment of offenders depending on such criteria). Good thing they were caught & sent to jail. I just hope their sentence will be proportional to their terrible actions.
I agree, they should be dressed up in cosplay and intimidated by large yakuza with pet baboons.
being from New York, idiots like this exist and can be easily spotted by the fact that they'll trip over their low riding jeans. In a year or two from now when I go see extended family in Japan, you'll be able to spot the Otaku hunters easily after I leave them for dead in the street.
Good to hear that people like that are caught and taken off the street. Though apologizing and threatening is a bit excessive, just cut out the "middle man" (apologizing) and just threaten, especially if they were alone.
those otaku hunters better don't pick on me. not when i have my black notebook with me. hehe...
well, I do have a tendency to fight, when I need to flight... hope none of those otaku hunting fags have knives or guns... b/c the last thing they need is me going berserk...
isn't gun possession illegal in japan
Thank god that something is being done to people that deserve it! Tho, if it was me, my fist will prolly be halfway into the guy's face when he "bumped" into me. Yea, I hate people that does this kind of crap!
Wow 20 otaku victims before they got caught? Do they threaten them with knives or baseball bats? If it ever happens to me in Japan(Which i seriously doubt), I'll just go "Huh What are you talking about? Sorry, i don't speak japanese ^^;". If that doesn't work out, I'll be glad to sort it out with my fists. "Talk to the hand". >:)
Ok if they had gun, i give them without 2nd thought, maybe yell like a woman^^ if they had knife, i block it with my hand/arm, let the knife stabbed in my hand/arm, pulled it, and stabbed it to their head most of this hunter usually never use their knife to hurt ppl,right?, and usually let the knife loose when they stabbed someone
death to the otaku hunters may they all burn in hell
I`m a very quite person, but if anyone try to mess with me, or more important with my new purchased stuff.. I can be like a beast!! Seriosully, well done, this time of scum get that deserve
Good. They got what they deserved. Thankfully I won't have to worry about that.
Im hoping that these otaku hunter fags got in trouble messing up with weapon otaku or martial-art otaku.
