Friendly FYI 😊 Chan, Tan. In Japanese pronunciation the "a" is like in the word ambience or ahh. Tahn or Chahn may better explain the "a" it just translates as the letter "a" but doesn't necessarily follow the typical American sound for "a". 😁 Sorry, I'm babbling. LOVED the video! 🤩😍 Please erase after you've read. 😇
@@diretrip I should edit to say: your other pronunciation of the Japanese words were well done! 😬 Again, it was a really good video. Keeping this old lady past bedtime! LOL thanks for your hard work!
@Gwendolyn Agreed. Losing a child is *THE WORST* pain any parent can go through. I thoroughly empathize with him. Although my son wasn't murdered, he was "taken" suddenly, which my therapist has said is a trauma in of itself and has left me with PTSD. As if I need more PTSD. He was nineteen, almost twenty, and was at his dad's for the weekend with his seventeen year old younger brother. I only had my two boys. He had been diagnosed with Addison's Disease at eighteen and we tight he'd been doing well titrating his meds to cope with any stress, or if he became sick. Also, I told him to *NEVER* worry about the cost of his meds, (he also had hyperthyroidism, which seems to go hand in hand with Addison's, and his cortisol pills, plus the thyroid pills weren't cheap), that I would *always* pay for them if need be. But he went into an Addisonian Crisis and died suddenly. His little brother found him, which just tears at my heart and soul even more since they were best friends as well as brothers. My younger son also was the one to call me as his dad was doing CPR and I did my damndest to not just scream a primal scream with him on the phone. I heard the cop come in and pronounce my son dead and just sobbed. Told my baby I would be there as fast as I could, and when I got to my ex-husband's house? My younger son ran into my arms and we just held each other. Even as we sat on the couch, we clung to each other. My arm wrapped around his shoulder. Didn't matter if he was just shy of being an adult. I was super close to my oldest, too. We'd hit the perfect adult son/mom relationship where we could sit on the patio, watch the sun set, and talk about everything and nothing. He'd even told me he was falling in love.💜 This was March 6, 2016. Seems like it was yesterday it still hurts that badly. Like I'm missing a huge chunk of my heart AND soul. My younger son is the other half. I'd also lost my dad eight months before my son, in July 2015. But I had time to say goodbye to him. He had chronic kidney failure from type 1 diabetes, and I was his sole caregiver. Plus I made sure he did hospice at home with me. Where he should be. But losing a child is something no parent should ever have to go through. I wouldn't wish it on my worst enemy.
As a single dad these stories hit me even harder, its been just me and my son since he was born pretty much, i would end up having a mental breakdown or something i assume.
No but seriously, he should have realised that spoiling his child to such an extent would end up giving her such an attitude making her an easy target.
@@kawaiiboba6074 nobody raises their child expecting them to be murdered by their classmates. You can’t blame the dad for his kids attitude, he likely didn’t know what was happening. She was also a child, kids can be bullies, doesn’t make it right but it does happen, the teachers should’ve been more involved. Killing someone is never the answer to an issue.
Parents let their kids goes to the internet in such of young age. That is a mistakes. Kids will find things that should not or even people with mental disorder will influence the kids. They targeting the children using internet to influence their crazy ideology or even motivate them. Kids are fragile, they learn from what they see or heard. Wrong place will make them lost humanity. Even in cartoon those people trying to influence the kids. We must teach our kids about the danger of internet so they prepared and know which one is good which one that need to be avoided. I will not give my child an Internet/social media until He/She 13-14 years old. I'll teach them Life and reality
@@jeremytheexplorer4689 my mom let me go on the internet at a young age but because i had other things to play with and just generally had no idea what it was, i didnt go and i think that was for the best since i probably wouldve came out as a pretty effed up kid had i not been ignorant
@@jiayitan1767 nice 👍 Life outside internet is more colorful. The Green, the Blue, The Golden Sun, many things. Experience = Color. The more you have experience, the more your life is full of colors
Society today 😥 and kids younger and younger committing these horrid crimes. Because they don't pay for the crimes they do. So kids want their 15 min. Of fame. As society has become fake and uncaring!
@@mouse9665 It is unfortunate but a culture of narcissism does seem to dominate today, not sure that it plays a role in this case or is as prominent in japan however (though I am aware that many Japanese certainly feel it is a concern of westernisation in their country as well). The thing that got me is that while even the perpetrator showed regret and an understanding of the magnitude of her actions, others are glorifying it and trivialising the human sanctity of a child and the victim for such an appalling by depicting light heartily the horrible and painful last moments she suffered. I can only imagine what it must be like for her family. How horrible it must be for her classmates as well that the real image of her as a person is being washed over, especially in a country where face is important like Japan.
Just like how they worship that lunatic that ate that French lady, he's a best-selling author on what he did and is a celebrity or many people hound him for autographs and he profits pretty well off of his horrific crime. Only in Japan
The cosplaying, following and boost sales of specific hoodies are in such poor taste. No matter how one might feel about "Nevada" personally within its initial complex situation to many, a child was still brutally murdered. Her father was beyond devastated. Other students and teachers had PTSD from witnessing the scene. Imagine if people cosplayed as John Wayne Gacy, Karla Homolka or Chikatilo? People would be pissed. It really gives a giant heartless middle finger to the victim and their family 😕
@@alastor8091 I would care, anyone of us could be a victim if you allow killing to be anything but deplorable. This comment section is humane that's what it is
100% agree. The amount of 'fan art' featured on the video is disturbing. (Not DT's fault for sure, and I don't blame him for using it for the visual aspect of this video... it's just disturbing that it exists.)
this is from my own experience: never EVER get involved with the brutal side of the internet. i remember from y.15-18 i got really into gore and liveleak stuff. it made me absolutely numb to people dying. i thought "its just flesh" - but no, it's a person. i had to completely get rid off all bad influences to give me a "human" perspective on brutality back.. still struggling to this day with empathy but im glad i took this route to process the concept of life and death better.
same with me too. I found comfort in it, seeing others hurt. I would be abused physically and mentally. and at one point I was about to kill my family. luckily I had one very good friend that was able to prevent that and give it back to me. and my siblings found out. my sister knows that I kind of. struggle to understand when to stop if I do end up fighting. and knows I wouldn't stop. I sometimes still get the urge to looka t gore and blood but I really try and prevent it and I'm in therapy now. crazy how things go :((
It’s comforting to know others have this issue as well. While it’s good to understand and come to terms with death, you should never seek it out, in any way. I’m just starting out with removing the gore from my life, I’ve become far too paranoid due to it. I hope we all have a good recovery with this.
I did not know that Nevada was a killer in real life and my older sister wanted to cosplay her. None of our family batted an eye until I watched this thank God I watched this before she could go out for Halloween as a child murderer. Fortunately my sister cared enough to change her costume from Nevada to Himiko Toga.
Himiko Toga if i remember right is a character with a few screws loose from My hero academia anime. She uses a knife to fight and likes blood in that show. Just wanna let you know in case you are unaware of this. She's a fictional character though so that's a different story :P
@@dyentyuiop Thank you, but I am an avid MHA fan and have seen all the episodes with my sister, my sister went as Himiko and I went as a female Bakugo :)
I often wonder why some people tend to idolise, for lack of a better term, killers like this. I'm not just referring to Nevada-tan, there's plenty of content speaking highly, affectionately or flippantly about people like Ted Bundy for instance, or the Columbine shooters, or that one woman who stabbed her boyfriend and then smoked a cig as the police came (EDIT: Her name is Yuka Takaoka). I feel like the main factor at play is distance, either by time, location or emotion. They don't think about the victims, because they don't have to. They just find a case and like the murderer, because they're "cute" or "pained" or in other ways interesting. One could argue that Nevada-tan is the point where our obsessions with killers found community. I was just thinking, anyway.
There seems to be a lot of sympathy for killers that people find "attractive". Some recent cases that come to my mind are these 2 recent cases that happened in the US where a rich teenage boy was going 100+ mph on the road and ended up killing someone, but then they both amassed a fan base of people who think they're "too cute to go to jail" 🤢 it's sickening.
I can’t imagine how little Satomi’s father feels, loosing his baby and then the world goes and idolizes her killer! And that one art WITH LITTLE SATOMI GETTING BUTCHERED! What in the hell! Again, I just can’t stop thinking of the poor victim and her devastated father!
Just a quick note to let you know I really like this "In Full Detail" type segment, giving your viewers more than just the most dramatic moments. Thanks much, DT 🙂
Japan's justice system be wild man, I read about a case in which a 10 yr old girl DECAPITATED her friend because she was 'jealous', you know what the courts decided? The family of the murderous child just had to PAY A FINE. THAT'S IT. No psychiatric intervention for the child. No prison sentence. A FINE. Wtf.
@@egg_bun_ i get japan has problem with protecting minor who commit violent crime, but you want to believe that happen without any blacklash from the public.
It is wild to me that you would imprison a 10 year old, countries like the US who do that just lack humanity. The goal always should be rehabilitation, especially when a person is that young. The Japanese system isn’t broken the US system is, you wouldn’t see a 10 year old imprisoned in any other developed nation either.
If nothing else they've put up some nice Red Flags. Not that I expect they're all closet murderers but there could be skeletons in their closets that you really don't wanna deal with
Unfortunately now ppl think I'm a fan of Navada Tan all because I have a Nevada jacket because I thought it looked cool and because of Madness Combat, I'm not a fan of Nevada Tan, I just like the jacket Although I used the same jacket to cosplay my oc who could be considered a real killer as he killed many people, tho he is based off of me and how I decided to make him to kill as many people as possible to relieve my stress and so real people don't die
if you have great parents who want the best 4 you, then you are able to do something like that. If not then you end up becoming the backbone of society
whole incident made me appreciate parents who moniter their children's behaviour especially on the Internet. Gruesome and sad, my condolences to the poor girl who lost her life
@@leafy4142 surely in this specific case you can understand that she was in such a formative time in her life that rehabilitation could work? She was clearly suffering from social isolation and had undiagnosed mental illness, and showed a lot of remorse for what she did.
I've researched about this case as much as I can,but the facts you stated were something I've never heard of,looking forward to more of this detailed videos..👍🏼
Only recently I heard about Nevada-tan especially from a music video dedicated to her. I thought she was someone who unalived herself & people were paying tribute to her, however now hearing what's going on...I do pity her & wish her well in rehabilitating herself, but I have more sympathy for her victims family who must feel disgusted by how people idolized the one who killed her daughter.
I think you might be confusing her with roro Chan who was a girl that killed herself in a livestream and has a music video dedicated to her. I haven’t seen a Nevada tan music video but it might exist.
This more detailed, serious and less sensationalized aproach to true crime hits much harder. This feels more respectful and really makes you put yourself in the eyes of the people around nevada or the victim. One of the best TC channels out there
Duuuuuuude that shit is soooooooo fucking crazy, like I was a dark kid, I kinda almost get it, but, no matter bullying or arguments or hatred, it had never crossed my mind once to do something like that. Honestly I'm a proponent of rehabilitation, but in situations like this. I honestly don't give a shit about possible rehabilitation. I've studied a lot on mental health and all kinds of things. If you are capable of doing something like this in cold blood. That's not normal and chances are you'll never be reasonable or safe to be around.
I can relate... was bullied through school and became very introspective and drawn to darkness, and started using a box cutter from the age of 10... only I used it to cut myself. Never thought about harming the bullies. I guess in a way I can understand the logic of a child nearing puberty having poor decision making skills while dealing with hormones, social difficulties, trying to understand oneself, etc... but the manner of this murder is next level for that age I think. She planned it out from the choice of weapon to luring her victim so cruelly, and taunting her by saying she was going to kill her, and then the brutality and mindful choice of slicing the throat and arm/wrist so deeply that it would guarantee hitting major arteries for fatally rapid blood loss. There's dark, and then there's that...
@@Sharon_L_W Psychotic? Total lack of emotion before and directly after the murder seems to point to a psychotic break. Not defending her, just trying to figure out what she was thinking. ✌️😺
@@Sharon_L_W right??? Like I don't care how emotional or angry or anything someone is if you're able to consciously make that decision over an internet squabble with your former best friend, like there's something wrong with your head and it's most likely not fixable. Also part that bugged me was how they say it went down, the friend obviously didn't believe her former friend would do that. To imagine the utter pain and betrayal that she felt when she realized it wasn't just a sick joke.... Damn
@@vicetea86 Agreed. Hopefully for the victim's sake, she bled out quickly. Based on the description of her wounds, and how fast she died, I suspect she didn't suffer too long.. once you lose a certain amount of blood, you pass out from hypovolemic shock. Time it takes varies, depending on rate of blood loss but some people can pass out a lot sooner than others. Still absolutely horrible but hopefully she didn't feel the pain for too long :(
It's fucking horrible how people can glorify people like this. I hope that the family of the victim is doing alright. Losing a child is probably the worst pain anyone could ever experience.
Good job on this one. Every video about her that i've seen in the past made it look like she just did it out of nowhere for no reason. I didn't know about the conflict she was having before all this took place.
I feel Japanese fascination with murders speaks a lot about an oppressed feeling society. I don't know to explain it. But I feel it has something to do with how rigid Japanese, and most Asian cultures are. You had new information to me. This is the first I'd heard of the online fighting and general bullying. Really like the deeper dive!✌️😺
The truth is that they're actually very open , and more socially free than in the west. This exotic notion of how the east is just some fantasy, if you've lived in China, Japan, Thailand e.t.c you'll see that there are crazy people in any population and it can't be blamed on society unless you talk about economic regulations which cause poverty and lack of purpose
I can't imagine what the victim's family is going through seeing people cosplaying and making fanart of the girl that killed their daughter. Absolutely sickening. People have no remorse for the victims of such heinous crimes.
This was well before my time, but I've definitely heard a bit about the basics of the Nevada-Tan phenomenon before. Still find it absolutely vile the internet's response was to glorify her. Just so strange... The public mishandling of her case is especially disgusting. It's like everyone except for the the families of the girls and the school themselves through any and all common sense out the window. I find it interesting to know "Nevada" immediately regretted it; that part I've definitely never heard before. It doesn't excuse her actions, but it does humanize her. Most of the "In Full Detail" series have revealed the culprit to be an even bigger monster than they first appear; this one actually made me feel a degree of sympathy for her... and not in the "uwu cute lil' girl killer" sort of way, more in the "I genuinely feel if the culprit had more help and support this wouldn't have happened, especially because they genuinely regret their actions" way. Given she seems to have gone on to live a fairly normal life all things considered, I wonder if she looks on at people idolizing her as some stereotypical psychopathic killer with guilt and horror.
The fan art of her is really disturbing. As someone who loosely follow true crime cases, I don't understand the idolisation of murderers. Especially 'Nevada Tan' who was just a child.
i have heard about her and what happened in general but i never really knew about the full story in detail and u've explained it so well! such a great video as always!!!
Being from Reno, NV, I vaguely remember this happening. I was only 8, but I overheard school friends with older siblings talking about how UNR had to remove the sweatshirt from the store "because someone got murdered." I assumed they meant someone was murdered because they were wearing the sweatshirt... Then I found 4chan when I was 13 and realized this case was what they were talking about. Crazy!
Hi there, I really like that you're doing this format of in-depth videos! Especially for this case I found it hard to find detailed information on what happened and you did quite a good job considering this murder happened in Japan and isn't as "well-known" as others. I'm looking forward to your next videos (despite the tragic events). And needless to say: treating this incident like an entertaining fictional story you can cosplay about or make "fan art" of is just beyond disturbingly shameless and uncalled for...
I can see how the full story does involve much more than normal... But it is such a better experience for us subscribers.. Rather than the normal 2minute TLDR explanation we get a full understanding of the situation and circumstances... Along with the gorey details. It definitely leaves me more satisfied and feeling like I gained some understanding from this style video. I truly appreciate all of your hard work and dedication to your craft. Thank you Dire!
I was hoping you’d cover Nevada-tan! It was strange being around to witness the culture on the internet surrounding her when it all happened. I regret to admit I even got into it a bit, myself. Only because back then, I was into a lot of violent Japanese media, like Elfen Lied, School Days and Higurashi, and sometimes it was hard for me to separate fiction from reality- which is how Nevada herself seemed to be, too. A misunderstood loner who doodled in her schoolwork with violent thoughts was something I unfortunately connected to. So when you said how much she cried after the killing, a huge wave of relief washed over me. So much different than the cold “yandere” her “fans” were making her out to be. It makes me happy to know that I’m sure doing this was something she seems to very much regret. Like a person, not some fictional character from an edgy anime.
That point you made about violent anime might have been what influenced her portrayal as a cold or yandere-esque figure, especially when all three of those works were decently popular and had yandere style killers as main characters. But then again, it could very well be a coincidence
I wonder if you could share what draws people to violent fiction above other genres? I find that so hard to grapple with, 10 fold when it's a child, that the tragedy of the victims isn't recognised when looking upon depictions of human to human violence. I always think what if that was me?! The lack of sanctity for human life is all I can possibly see, I wouldn't ever be able to trust humans again (actually that ship may have already sailed 😅)
You probably shouldn’t be watching true crime since you love violence so much. Normal people watch it for the shock value and scare factor. We definitely don’t feel any connection to the killers!
@@toreason8146 i personally was introduced to violent media when i was young, movies like saw, human centipeid and chucky. i think it's the action and feeling you get from watching stuff thats violent. like the "can't look away" thing. i always want to find the most messed up thing to watch because i just like the feeling of watching the messed up thing. i still have empathy and goodwill towards humans. i'm no different from someone who watches comedies or romance media. it's hard to explain and since there is little research on how violent media effects people it's just hard to really say the reason why. but great question!
This is the first channel that mentioned the later psychological evaluations, Asperger's, and key point....the killer's remorse. No. That does not bring back her classmate, Sato (?), and undo her actions. I do hope she can reintegrate successfully, and that she does well. She was a child that made a HORRID mistake. My heart breaks for Sato's father and brothers, but due to the age and diagnosis, and her actual remorse of her action, she should have a chance to try at least. She was far too young to fully comprehend the results of her actions. The human brain has not developed that region of reasoning yet. RIP Sato, I hope she found her mother and is at peace.
@@clementine2001 She was a child. Children don't fully understand what it means to "kill" or "die". They might have a vague grasp of it (like killing someone makes them go away), but they don't truly understand the consequences and the suffering of the situation until they're older. So for "Nevada" it was a mistake - a huge mistake that ruined many peoples lives. I don't think she truly understood what she doing past the idea of getting back at someone who they perceived as bullying them.
People always deserve a second chance and help instead of punishment because people can change, no matter what the crime is. Wanting punishment is a primitive instinct of humans. Unless the person is clinical psychopaths who can’t be changed rehabilitation always is the best thing for everyone.
@@IISeverusll yea, rehabilitative justice totally grooming, if anything it is the opposite of that. But I can't expect someone who is brainbroken to understand that.
You are my favorite. Love how you are the true crime love child of Mike from that Chapter and Adrian from Coffeehouse. You have the soothing voice but also have a great sense of humor. I found your channel two weeks ago and have binged watched them all. You have immediately shot up to the top of my list. Keep up the great work homie!
I feel terrible for everyone involved, if some precautions and mental awareness were taken this all could have been avoided, rip and I hope she can grow from this and the internet stops idolizing the murder
This murder happened in 2004 and I was on 4chan back then. The art work and stories was everywhere. It took me ages to learn it was a real crime and not just a creepy pasta the users had made up. I hope Nevada-tan is ok today. It takes serious mental illness to murder as a child.
@@7eyesopenwide168 yeah but those people aren't going to go against their own self-interest and harm someone and fuck up the rest of their life, unless they basically can't help themselves due to impulse issues, trauma, extreme youth, etc. i'm very close to someone who is just wired that way and is even a diagnosed sociopath but he doesn't run around doing dumb shit anymore bc he has smtg to lose.
All I want to know is why is there a rise in child murderers? What is making these children tick as to why they just kill another child without battering an eyelid. Its so crazy that they do the killing then just carry on about their business as if nothing has happened. Thank you for sharing this video but I personally think that making fan art about her or glorifying what she did is sick as it is, let alone creating these fan made Memes. It is a shame as she is a beautiful young lady. One can only hope that she has changed and will not be slaying anymore children or people her own age or above. Great video Kyle x
I feel that it’s the influence that the internet has on children. Someone else in the comments was saying they watched a lot of gore when they were younger and eventually became numb to people dying, Nevada also seemed to watch a lot of media with gore in it. So my guess is that she became numb to death and influenced her to do this maybe
@@TheRocksFavoriteEyebrow Hi there thanks for your reply huni. Yes it could be a factor to consider as there is too much on the internet that is gore and horror. Some kids had actually hurt someone perhaps killed them once and they were asked What made you do that, they replied that they thought it was like a video game as they just get back up over and over again. I was horrified to think that kids nowadays actually think that hurting or murdering someone is ok as they truly think its like a video game, they can get back up and live again. This is so scary that kids of the future will be doing more of these things to people as the internet and playing horror and gore games has made them think that in real life it happens too. Can you believe that some kids actually think that? Anyway you stay safe out there ok and thanks again xx
I really enjoy this kind of content and find that your longer video's are more entertaining. Thanks for all of your hard work and effort so please keep them coming. Take care and stay safe from Keith in Scotland too everyone out there.
100% agree. People need to separate fiction from reality. I can't imagine what the victim's family is going through seeing so many people idolize their child's killer.
I lived in Sasebo at the time it happened. People were already on edge because of Sakakibara, and Natsumi was, like you said, regarded as a "good kid", just as Sakakibara was before the murders. It is important to point out though, that Sakakibara committed those crimes as a sort of rebellion towards the schooling system and everyone felt that at that time. In his letters to Kobe Shinbun he blamed school for his "diminished existence". While Natsumi's crime is also horrid, I remember people in community being somehow relieved that that crime hadn't being a "rebellious" act towards the system and it was "just a kids' spat" gone wrong.
while i fully understand and know that real life tragedies and murders like this will ultimately inspire pop culture (see: the prominence of real life serial killer-inspired fictional stories, such as psycho, texas chainsaw massacre, IT by stephen king, scream, the list goes on), theres something… strange about the specific cult following and idolisation of nevada-tan. i also know biographical information is inevitable, but i feel theres a difference between a biographical piece of information showing the true horrors a killer committed versus the literal fans of nevadas life and subsequent turn to murder at such a young age. i cant imagine the grief satomis father went through, especially after losing his wife prior to this, and people only want to idolise nevada and make her into some quirky little manga icon. like. what????? does no one see anything wrong with this????? i cant stop people from doing this but i sure as hell am going to judge them for it 🤨
Honestly she showed actual legitimate remorse so I kinda can't imagine the demons in her and I do feel almost sorry for her to an extent. But not as much as the victim of course. What she did was horrible but I wish her the best re integrating
I didn’t know about the laws and processing Japan did for murderers until I saw your videos. I’m not sure if I agree with it but it is interesting to see how other countries do it.
Man your videos are AMAZING!!! I remember watching you when you had a few thousand subs, congrats on 150k 🎉 The sound quality is perfect now, great and accurate content, vids are a good consistent length, consistent uploads weekly. Great work!!
We are "kinda evil" when born, we do not understand consequences, if you grew up in the wild for any reason you would be capable of ripping someone's face off without any problem probably, the gravity of our actions is determinated by the society we live in. American indians used to make mass killings in religious events and noone had any problem with them, they were not scarred by those sights, it was so bad that even those who were going to die were happy to do it. Romans were attending the colossium in masses to watch the next massacre. Spartans threw children off a cliff if they had physical problems at birth. Slaves in most parts of the world were threated like shit, brutalized and killed for little to no reason. Being young and affected by asperger made it hard for her to understand the gravity of her actions, up until the direct consequences, proof of the fact that she is not "just evil" is that she did in fact have a powerful reaction to what she had done.
@@watchmehope6560 I personally think all humans are born just like a blank piece of paper/canvas. Anything can happen and change without us knowing :/
Feel like I shouldn't have to say this but just in case anyone thinks otherwise: No, being autistic doesn't make you more prone to violence due to autism itself. The only thing that could possibly make autistic people (such as myself) more prone to violence is the sheer amount of social violence we experience on the DAILY. This world was not built for us and actively tries to kill us every step of the way. But otherwise no, being autistic doesn't make someone violent.
Monday Night Mystery Theater is Japanese, not Korean. There was a very popular Korean show called "Saturday Mystery Theater" in the late 90s but that is a completely unrelated, totally different show. The name format (**day mystery theater) is just popular in both countries in general. Also there have been MANY Japanese shows of the similar names (Thursday Mystery Theater, Friday Mystery Theater, Tuesday Suspense Theater, etc.)
I truly cannot believe people are making memes and even "fan art" for a murderer. Absolutely unbelievable. It's one thing to cosplay a fictional murderer, but a real one? A victim lost their life to this girl, and she's the inspiration for your "costume"? Seriously? It's not some cute little horror cosplay, that's a REAL murderer. These people need to have some humanity.
How come there are so many grotesque juvenile murderers in Japan? Sure lots of first world countries have some underage offenders but rarely do I hear of something as severe and often as cases in Japan
Dear lord, the photo quality 😭😭 Our great grandparents are rolling in their graves looking at the shit ass quality of our digital photos even 20 years later 😂😂😂 I have a near perfect print of my grandmother in 1968....my 2005 digital photos look like pixel art.
I'm 50 years old and I am the same and I think a hell of a lot of people around the world have become similar in the way of being online so much that before you know it you realise that you are totally neglecting your normal life for a unhealthy life online ?!!
Did you do this case already? I swear I had heard about it! I thought it was from you? Are you going to cover the case about the school stabbing you mentioned in the beginning? Either way loved the video keep up the amazing work!
Very informative whilst horrific and sad. I just found your channel and love your presentation style, I'm hooked, back catalogue here I come for a binge.
thanks for posting this! ive been asking about it for a while, i've always wanted to know more, but my japanese skills are on child level, lol. i knew a guy in college who was w a a a a a y obsessed with nevada tan, had the same hoodie and everything and would talk about her when asked about his shirt (are you from nevada?)
I'm more interested in exactly how and why the young girl acquired that sweatshirt. It's not like it's important to this case, but it's just so odd to me that this very young Japanese girl would be wearing such a seemingly random shirt in a language she probably didn't really understand. Imagine being a University of Nevada-Reno student, perhaps wearing a similar sweatshirt and having absolutely no idea what kind of connotation that could have for those who are familiar with the case.
It's so disturbing that people made fanart and cosplayed as this girl. Like what the hell is wrong with people? This is reality, not some fictional Jeff the Killer crap.
Great job! You're one of a few people that I patron, just because I'm not rich in the first place but the quality of work deserves it I think. I also like being last when you read the patron list!
I am not sure lowering the age of responsibility would have done a damn thing to prevent this. The motivations were childish and the girl's mind was clearly more influenced by the media she consumed than what the legal consequences for her actions might have been. I doubt she could even comprehend that there were consequences. She probably thought it would be just like the movies.
This whole thing is disturbing. Between the glorification and memeification of the girl on the internet, to the "it's a cool setup" for "kids on an island forced to kill each other with various weapons", it really depresses me. I don't think violent media makes for violent kids per say, and at the same time, what kids think of as "cool" can certainly influence their behaviour and decisions. Let alone what the adults around them think is cool.

The quote “she’s as necessary as air” from the father of the victim really got me, I can’t even imagine how heartbreaking that loss was for him
@Gwendolyn
Agreed. Losing a child is *THE WORST* pain any parent can go through. I thoroughly empathize with him.
Although my son wasn't murdered, he was "taken" suddenly, which my therapist has said is a trauma in of itself and has left me with PTSD. As if I need more PTSD.
He was nineteen, almost twenty, and was at his dad's for the weekend with his seventeen year old younger brother. I only had my two boys. He had been diagnosed with Addison's Disease at eighteen and we tight he'd been doing well titrating his meds to cope with any stress, or if he became sick. Also, I told him to *NEVER* worry about the cost of his meds, (he also had hyperthyroidism, which seems to go hand in hand with Addison's, and his cortisol pills, plus the thyroid pills weren't cheap), that I would *always* pay for them if need be.
But he went into an Addisonian Crisis and died suddenly. His little brother found him, which just tears at my heart and soul even more since they were best friends as well as brothers.
My younger son also was the one to call me as his dad was doing CPR and I did my damndest to not just scream a primal scream with him on the phone. I heard the cop come in and pronounce my son dead and just sobbed. Told my baby I would be there as fast as I could, and when I got to my ex-husband's house? My younger son ran into my arms and we just held each other. Even as we sat on the couch, we clung to each other. My arm wrapped around his shoulder. Didn't matter if he was just shy of being an adult.
I was super close to my oldest, too. We'd hit the perfect adult son/mom relationship where we could sit on the patio, watch the sun set, and talk about everything and nothing. He'd even told me he was falling in love.💜
This was March 6, 2016. Seems like it was yesterday it still hurts that badly. Like I'm missing a huge chunk of my heart AND soul. My younger son is the other half.
I'd also lost my dad eight months before my son, in July 2015. But I had time to say goodbye to him. He had chronic kidney failure from type 1 diabetes, and I was his sole caregiver. Plus I made sure he did hospice at home with me. Where he should be.
But losing a child is something no parent should ever have to go through. I wouldn't wish it on my worst enemy.
As a single dad these stories hit me even harder, its been just me and my son since he was born pretty much, i would end up having a mental breakdown or something i assume.
No but seriously, he should have realised that spoiling his child to such an extent would end up giving her such an attitude making her an easy target.
But I agree. This would be a real tragedy for me if I was her dad.
@@kawaiiboba6074 nobody raises their child expecting them to be murdered by their classmates. You can’t blame the dad for his kids attitude, he likely didn’t know what was happening. She was also a child, kids can be bullies, doesn’t make it right but it does happen, the teachers should’ve been more involved. Killing someone is never the answer to an issue.
Only on the internet can a child murderer be glorified to an unsettling extent.
By pedophiles no less. God damn internet.
Parents let their kids goes to the internet in such of young age. That is a mistakes. Kids will find things that should not or even people with mental disorder will influence the kids. They targeting the children using internet to influence their crazy ideology or even motivate them.
Kids are fragile, they learn from what they see or heard. Wrong place will make them lost humanity.
Even in cartoon those people trying to influence the kids.
We must teach our kids about the danger of internet so they prepared and know which one is good which one that need to be avoided.

@@mouse9665 It is unfortunate but a culture of narcissism does seem to dominate today, not sure that it plays a role in this case or is as prominent in japan however (though I am aware that many Japanese certainly feel it is a concern of westernisation in their country as well).
The thing that got me is that while even the perpetrator showed regret and an understanding of the magnitude of her actions, others are glorifying it and trivialising the human sanctity of a child and the victim for such an appalling by depicting light heartily the horrible and painful last moments she suffered. I can only imagine what it must be like for her family. How horrible it must be for her classmates as well that the real image of her as a person is being washed over, especially in a country where face is important like Japan.
Just like how they worship that lunatic that ate that French lady, he's a best-selling author on what he did and is a celebrity or many people hound him for autographs and he profits pretty well off of his horrific crime. Only in Japan
Yep. Look at this chick's eyes at the end of the video. Psycho
It chills me to the bone - "god" help us all
The cosplaying, following and boost sales of specific hoodies are in such poor taste. No matter how one might feel about "Nevada" personally within its initial complex situation to many, a child was still brutally murdered. Her father was beyond devastated. Other students and teachers had PTSD from witnessing the scene. Imagine if people cosplayed as John Wayne Gacy, Karla Homolka or Chikatilo? People would be pissed. It really gives a giant heartless middle finger to the victim and their family 😕
People 100% do that, people make fanart and gush over male serial killers, too. They're all fucked.

Help being the good friend bullet
They wanna be different so bad
Yes yes they really do need help
this is from my own experience: never EVER get involved with the brutal side of the internet. i remember from y.15-18 i got really into gore and liveleak stuff. it made me absolutely numb to people dying. i thought "its just flesh" - but no, it's a person. i had to completely get rid off all bad influences to give me a "human" perspective on brutality back.. still struggling to this day with empathy but im glad i took this route to process the concept of life and death better.
cap
Same here!
same with me too. I found comfort in it, seeing others hurt. I would be abused physically and mentally. and at one point I was about to kill my family. luckily I had one very good friend that was able to prevent that and give it back to me. and my siblings found out. my sister knows that I kind of. struggle to understand when to stop if I do end up fighting. and knows I wouldn't stop. I sometimes still get the urge to looka t gore and blood but I really try and prevent it and I'm in therapy now. crazy how things go :((
It’s comforting to know others have this issue as well.
While it’s good to understand and come to terms with death, you should never seek it out, in any way.
I’m just starting out with removing the gore from my life, I’ve become far too paranoid due to it.
I hope we all have a good recovery with this.
but a person is "just flesh"
I did not know that Nevada was a killer in real life and my older sister wanted to cosplay her. None of our family batted an eye until I watched this thank God I watched this before she could go out for Halloween as a child murderer. Fortunately my sister cared enough to change her costume from Nevada to Himiko Toga.
Himiko Toga if i remember right is a character with a few screws loose from My hero academia anime. She uses a knife to fight and likes blood in that show.
Just wanna let you know in case you are unaware of this.

I’m glad your sis changed her mind and went as a fictional character instead! Nobody should be cosplaying as a real life killer.
Sounds like a dink
I often wonder why some people tend to idolise, for lack of a better term, killers like this. I'm not just referring to Nevada-tan, there's plenty of content speaking highly, affectionately or flippantly about people like Ted Bundy for instance, or the Columbine shooters, or that one woman who stabbed her boyfriend and then smoked a cig as the police came (EDIT: Her name is Yuka Takaoka).
I feel like the main factor at play is distance, either by time, location or emotion. They don't think about the victims, because they don't have to. They just find a case and like the murderer, because they're "cute" or "pained" or in other ways interesting. One could argue that Nevada-tan is the point where our obsessions with killers found community.
I was just thinking, anyway.
There seems to be a lot of sympathy for killers that people find "attractive". Some recent cases that come to my mind are these 2 recent cases that happened in the US where a rich teenage boy was going 100+ mph on the road and ended up killing someone, but then they both amassed a fan base of people who think they're "too cute to go to jail" 🤢 it's sickening.
I got no idea but it's in bad taste!
Sheep tend to be more docile towards wolves if they lack self preservation
@@BlazeDuskdreamer I don't think they are still an influence on anyone. Move with the times.

The family of the murderous child just had to PAY A FINE. THAT'S IT. No psychiatric intervention for the child. No prison sentence. A FINE. Wtf.
I going to need a source before i believe that
Considering what I've read about Japanese crime involving minors, I believe it.
@@egg_bun_ i get japan has problem with protecting minor who commit violent crime, but you want to believe that happen without any blacklash from the public.
Definitly rings a bell but i too can not remember which case it was but saw it on you tube, a japanese case if i remember correctly.
It is wild to me that you would imprison a 10 year old, countries like the US who do that just lack humanity.
The goal always should be rehabilitation, especially when a person is that young.
The Japanese system isn’t broken the US system is, you wouldn’t see a 10 year old imprisoned in any other developed nation either.
Imagine getting killed and your killer gains fans??? Like wtf bruh.

If nothing else they've put up some nice Red Flags. Not that I expect they're all closet murderers but there could be skeletons in their closets that you really don't wanna deal with

Unfortunately many murderers get 'fan mail' and groupies who would do anything for them and even wanna marry the monsters.
This even happens now! It happens a lot and it's so sad. It's more common when the killer is "attractive"

Only recently I heard about Nevada-tan especially from a music video dedicated to her. I thought she was someone who unalived herself & people were paying tribute to her, however now hearing what's going on...I do pity her & wish her well in rehabilitating herself, but I have more sympathy for her victims family who must feel disgusted by how people idolized the one who killed her daughter.

Duuuuuuude that shit is soooooooo fucking crazy, like I was a dark kid, I kinda almost get it, but, no matter bullying or arguments or hatred, it had never crossed my mind once to do something like that. Honestly I'm a proponent of rehabilitation, but in situations like this. I honestly don't give a shit about possible rehabilitation. I've studied a lot on mental health and all kinds of things. If you are capable of doing something like this in cold blood. That's not normal and chances are you'll never be reasonable or safe to be around.
I was also a dark kid. Not going to lie, I thought of some sick shit as a child/teen but I never considered acting upon it whatsoever.
I can relate... was bullied through school and became very introspective and drawn to darkness, and started using a box cutter from the age of 10... only I used it to cut myself. Never thought about harming the bullies. I guess in a way I can understand the logic of a child nearing puberty having poor decision making skills while dealing with hormones, social difficulties, trying to understand oneself, etc... but the manner of this murder is next level for that age I think. She planned it out from the choice of weapon to luring her victim so cruelly, and taunting her by saying she was going to kill her, and then the brutality and mindful choice of slicing the throat and arm/wrist so deeply that it would guarantee hitting major arteries for fatally rapid blood loss.
There's dark, and then there's that...
@@Sharon_L_W Psychotic? Total lack of emotion before and directly after the murder seems to point to a psychotic break. Not defending her, just trying to figure out what she was thinking. ✌️😺

Like I don't care how emotional or angry or anything someone is if you're able to consciously make that decision over an internet squabble with your former best friend, like there's something wrong with your head and it's most likely not fixable. Also part that bugged me was how they say it went down, the friend obviously didn't believe her former friend would do that. To imagine the utter pain and betrayal that she felt when she realized it wasn't just a sick joke.... Damn
@@vicetea86 Agreed. Hopefully for the victim's sake, she bled out quickly. Based on the description of her wounds, and how fast she died, I suspect she didn't suffer too long.. once you lose a certain amount of blood, you pass out from hypovolemic shock. Time it takes varies, depending on rate of blood loss but some people can pass out a lot sooner than others. Still absolutely horrible but hopefully she didn't feel the pain for too long :(
It's fucking horrible how people can glorify people like this. I hope that the family of the victim is doing alright. Losing a child is probably the worst pain anyone could ever experience.

I’m Japanese but I always thought this was just an urban legend not a real murder case… thanks for sharing
I always appreciate the way you present your cases with respect
I feel Japanese fascination with murders speaks a lot about an oppressed feeling society. I don't know to explain it. But I feel it has something to do with how rigid Japanese, and most Asian cultures are.
You had new information to me. This is the first I'd heard of the online fighting and general bullying. Really like the deeper dive!✌️😺
You saying deep down a part of them all wishes to kill?
So, like America in the 80s
The truth is that they're actually very open , and more socially free than in the west. This exotic notion of how the east is just some fantasy, if you've lived in China, Japan, Thailand e.t.c you'll see that there are crazy people in any population and it can't be blamed on society unless you talk about economic regulations which cause poverty and lack of purpose
Creating “fan art” of a girl who did this. God, sometimes I really hate humanity.

@@teacat5474 Look up Japanese killer kids for a start to understand some of it. this should be on youtube.
This was well before my time, but I've definitely heard a bit about the basics of the Nevada-Tan phenomenon before. Still find it absolutely vile the internet's response was to glorify her. Just so strange... The public mishandling of her case is especially disgusting. It's like everyone except for the the families of the girls and the school themselves through any and all common sense out the window.
I find it interesting to know "Nevada" immediately regretted it; that part I've definitely never heard before. It doesn't excuse her actions, but it does humanize her. Most of the "In Full Detail" series have revealed the culprit to be an even bigger monster than they first appear; this one actually made me feel a degree of sympathy for her... and not in the "uwu cute lil' girl killer" sort of way, more in the "I genuinely feel if the culprit had more help and support this wouldn't have happened, especially because they genuinely regret their actions" way. Given she seems to have gone on to live a fairly normal life all things considered, I wonder if she looks on at people idolizing her as some stereotypical psychopathic killer with guilt and horror.
This case is fascinating! Thanks for the in depth coverage.
The fan art of her is really disturbing. As someone who loosely follow true crime cases, I don't understand the idolisation of murderers. Especially 'Nevada Tan' who was just a child.
i have heard about her and what happened in general but i never really knew about the full story in detail and u've explained it so well! such a great video as always!!!
Me too
simply unthinkable for an 11 yr old girl to do such a horrific crime...
Being from Reno, NV, I vaguely remember this happening. I was only 8, but I overheard school friends with older siblings talking about how UNR had to remove the sweatshirt from the store "because someone got murdered." I assumed they meant someone was murdered because they were wearing the sweatshirt... Then I found 4chan when I was 13 and realized this case was what they were talking about. Crazy!
Hi there, I really like that you're doing this format of in-depth videos! Especially for this case I found it hard to find detailed information on what happened and you did quite a good job considering this murder happened in Japan and isn't as "well-known" as others. I'm looking forward to your next videos (despite the tragic events).
And needless to say: treating this incident like an entertaining fictional story you can cosplay about or make "fan art" of is just beyond disturbingly shameless and uncalled for...
I can see how the full story does involve much more than normal... But it is such a better experience for us subscribers.. Rather than the normal 2minute TLDR explanation we get a full understanding of the situation and circumstances... Along with the gorey details. It definitely leaves me more satisfied and feeling like I gained some understanding from this style video. I truly appreciate all of your hard work and dedication to your craft. Thank you Dire!
I was hoping you’d cover Nevada-tan! It was strange being around to witness the culture on the internet surrounding her when it all happened.
I regret to admit I even got into it a bit, myself. Only because back then, I was into a lot of violent Japanese media, like Elfen Lied, School Days and Higurashi, and sometimes it was hard for me to separate fiction from reality- which is how Nevada herself seemed to be, too.
A misunderstood loner who doodled in her schoolwork with violent thoughts was something I unfortunately connected to.
So when you said how much she cried after the killing, a huge wave of relief washed over me. So much different than the cold “yandere” her “fans” were making her out to be.
It makes me happy to know that I’m sure doing this was something she seems to very much regret. Like a person, not some fictional character from an edgy anime.
That point you made about violent anime might have been what influenced her portrayal as a cold or yandere-esque figure, especially when all three of those works were decently popular and had yandere style killers as main characters. But then again, it could very well be a coincidence
great anime taste btw. i heard people hate school days but i love it
I wonder if you could share what draws people to violent fiction above other genres? I find that so hard to grapple with, 10 fold when it's a child, that the tragedy of the victims isn't recognised when looking upon depictions of human to human violence. I always think what if that was me?!
The lack of sanctity for human life is all I can possibly see, I wouldn't ever be able to trust humans again (actually that ship may have already sailed 😅)
You probably shouldn’t be watching true crime since you love violence so much. Normal people watch it for the shock value and scare factor. We definitely don’t feel any connection to the killers!
@@toreason8146 i personally was introduced to violent media when i was young, movies like saw, human centipeid and chucky. i think it's the action and feeling you get from watching stuff thats violent. like the "can't look away" thing. i always want to find the most messed up thing to watch because i just like the feeling of watching the messed up thing. i still have empathy and goodwill towards humans. i'm no different from someone who watches comedies or romance media. it's hard to explain and since there is little research on how violent media effects people it's just hard to really say the reason why. but great question!
This was such a tragic case and the internet's response to it is sickening.
Thank you I’ve been away happy to be back , one of my favourite crime story teller ! Thank you for all you do Dire Trip .
This is the first channel that mentioned the later psychological evaluations, Asperger's, and key point....the killer's remorse. No. That does not bring back her classmate, Sato (?), and undo her actions.
I do hope she can reintegrate successfully, and that she does well. She was a child that made a HORRID mistake. My heart breaks for Sato's father and brothers, but due to the age and diagnosis, and her actual remorse of her action, she should have a chance to try at least. She was far too young to fully comprehend the results of her actions. The human brain has not developed that region of reasoning yet.
RIP Sato, I hope she found her mother and is at peace.
I came in not believing she deserved another chance. But both the video and this comment changed my mind. Well said mate.
@@clementine2001 She was a child. Children don't fully understand what it means to "kill" or "die". They might have a vague grasp of it (like killing someone makes them go away), but they don't truly understand the consequences and the suffering of the situation until they're older. So for "Nevada" it was a mistake - a huge mistake that ruined many peoples lives. I don't think she truly understood what she doing past the idea of getting back at someone who they perceived as bullying them.
People always deserve a second chance and help instead of punishment because people can change, no matter what the crime is.
Wanting punishment is a primitive instinct of humans.
Unless the person is clinical psychopaths who can’t be changed rehabilitation always is the best thing for everyone.

Someone else in the comments was saying they watched a lot of gore when they were younger and eventually became numb to people dying, Nevada also seemed to watch a lot of media with gore in it. So my guess is that she became numb to death and influenced her to do this maybe
@@TheRocksFavoriteEyebrow Hi there thanks for your reply huni. Yes it could be a factor to consider as there is too much on the internet that is gore and horror. Some kids had actually hurt someone perhaps killed them once and they were asked What made you do that, they replied that they thought it was like a video game as they just get back up over and over again. I was horrified to think that kids nowadays actually think that hurting or murdering someone is ok as they truly think its like a video game, they can get back up and live again. This is so scary that kids of the future will be doing more of these things to people as the internet and playing horror and gore games has made them think that in real life it happens too. Can you believe that some kids actually think that? Anyway you stay safe out there ok and thanks again xx
LOVE the “in detail” episodes!!
I hate when people idolize criminal ,murderers, serial killers, rapist ..
What is wrong with some people..
I really enjoy this kind of content and find that your longer video's are more entertaining. Thanks for all of your hard work and effort so please keep them coming. Take care and stay safe from Keith in Scotland too everyone out there.
Cosplaying as fictional killers is one thing, but an actual murderer? I’m appalled
even cosplaying fictional killers is weird… like… 😭
100% agree. People need to separate fiction from reality. I can't imagine what the victim's family is going through seeing so many people idolize their child's killer.
Thank you Dire Trip, I appreciate your hard work to bring us these interesting videos👍👍
Can't believe I never really knew much about this until this video. Very informative and respectful, subscribed 😊
In binge watching this series I find myself amazed how empathetic people seem for the criminals and that rehabilitation is strived over punishment
I lived in Sasebo at the time it happened. People were already on edge because of Sakakibara, and Natsumi was, like you said, regarded as a "good kid", just as Sakakibara was before the murders. It is important to point out though, that Sakakibara committed those crimes as a sort of rebellion towards the schooling system and everyone felt that at that time. In his letters to Kobe Shinbun he blamed school for his "diminished existence". While Natsumi's crime is also horrid, I remember people in community being somehow relieved that that crime hadn't being a "rebellious" act towards the system and it was "just a kids' spat" gone wrong.

She looks like an innocent child. Really proves how you can never judge a book by its cover.
She is
@@emilydavis162 innocent 💀
while i fully understand and know that real life tragedies and murders like this will ultimately inspire pop culture (see: the prominence of real life serial killer-inspired fictional stories, such as psycho, texas chainsaw massacre, IT by stephen king, scream, the list goes on), theres something… strange about the specific cult following and idolisation of nevada-tan. i also know biographical information is inevitable, but i feel theres a difference between a biographical piece of information showing the true horrors a killer committed versus the literal fans of nevadas life and subsequent turn to murder at such a young age. i cant imagine the grief satomis father went through, especially after losing his wife prior to this, and people only want to idolise nevada and make her into some quirky little manga icon. like. what????? does no one see anything wrong with this????? i cant stop people from doing this but i sure as hell am going to judge them for it 🤨
Honestly she showed actual legitimate remorse so I kinda can't imagine the demons in her and I do feel almost sorry for her to an extent. But not as much as the victim of course. What she did was horrible but I wish her the best re integrating
i agree.. so young and obviously already mentally ill and vulnerable to the horrors of unsupervised access to the internet..
Let me get my tea ready 🤩 love you DT!
WOW... your video was simply amazing... you deserve more and more members, your channel is exceptionally good
I'll never understand why the internet tends to glorify killers.
I didn’t know about the laws and processing Japan did for murderers until I saw your videos. I’m not sure if I agree with it but it is interesting to see how other countries do it.
Man your videos are AMAZING!!! I remember watching you when you had a few thousand subs, congrats on 150k 🎉 The sound quality is perfect now, great and accurate content, vids are a good consistent length, consistent uploads weekly. Great work!!
"Anyone who entered the room got a severe case of PTSD"
"Cuts so deep you can see the bone"
So she was able to bring a boxcutter to school, threaten students with it, and stayed? School, what did you do?
So glad you posted
I think this was the first time I heard this case with that many details, thanks a lot :)
"The whole case was handled...poorly...by the media..." Well that's unsurprising
its shocking home many sick people make fan art/dress up as somone who murdered a child
I remember seeing a giant stick at school and asked the teacher what it was used for
For defending against people attacking students at the school
It's crime cases like this that make me ask myself "is it possible for someone to be born evil?".
We are "kinda evil" when born, we do not understand consequences, if you grew up in the wild for any reason you would be capable of ripping someone's face off without any problem probably, the gravity of our actions is determinated by the society we live in.
American indians used to make mass killings in religious events and noone had any problem with them, they were not scarred by those sights, it was so bad that even those who were going to die were happy to do it.
Romans were attending the colossium in masses to watch the next massacre.
Spartans threw children off a cliff if they had physical problems at birth.
Slaves in most parts of the world were threated like shit, brutalized and killed for little to no reason.
Being young and affected by asperger made it hard for her to understand the gravity of her actions, up until the direct consequences, proof of the fact that she is not "just evil" is that she did in fact have a powerful reaction to what she had done.
It seems more likely to me that she had some kind of brain damage and poor impulse control since birth.
Are we born evil or good ..or we just exist?
@@watchmehope6560 I personally think all humans are born just like a blank piece of paper/canvas. Anything can happen and change without us knowing :/
This was very well done. I appreciate all the obvious hard work that went into this.
The fact that people decide to make fanart and cosplay as this sick monster do baffles me and will never understand why.
This was so disrespectful to the victim and her family.
What was? The video or the people making gross memes off of the murder?
@@mrselfdestruct7605 must be the horrible memes.
Feel like I shouldn't have to say this but just in case anyone thinks otherwise: No, being autistic doesn't make you more prone to violence due to autism itself. The only thing that could possibly make autistic people (such as myself) more prone to violence is the sheer amount of social violence we experience on the DAILY. This world was not built for us and actively tries to kill us every step of the way. But otherwise no, being autistic doesn't make someone violent.
In Full Detail is my new favorite series - so well done!
Monday Night Mystery Theater is Japanese, not Korean. There was a very popular Korean show called "Saturday Mystery Theater" in the late 90s but that is a completely unrelated, totally different show. The name format (**day mystery theater) is just popular in both countries in general. Also there have been MANY Japanese shows of the similar names (Thursday Mystery Theater, Friday Mystery Theater, Tuesday Suspense Theater, etc.)
I truly cannot believe people are making memes and even "fan art" for a murderer. Absolutely unbelievable. It's one thing to cosplay a fictional murderer, but a real one? A victim lost their life to this girl, and she's the inspiration for your "costume"? Seriously? It's not some cute little horror cosplay, that's a REAL murderer. These people need to have some humanity.
How come there are so many grotesque juvenile murderers in Japan? Sure lots of first world countries have some underage offenders but rarely do I hear of something as severe and often as cases in Japan
The hell is wrong with people?! They are cosplaying and idolizing her is messed up. Imagine the victim's family.
Dear lord, the photo quality 😭😭
Our great grandparents are rolling in their graves looking at the shit ass quality of our digital photos even 20 years later 😂😂😂
I have a near perfect print of my grandmother in 1968....my 2005 digital photos look like pixel art.
There is a definite shortage of quality pictures in this case
I'm 50 years old and I am the same and I think a hell of a lot of people around the world have become similar in the way of being online so much that before you know it you realise that you are totally neglecting your normal life for a unhealthy life online ?!!
Did you do this case already? I swear I had heard about it! I thought it was from you? Are you going to cover the case about the school stabbing you mentioned in the beginning?
Either way loved the video keep up the amazing work!
Danielle Kristy, Anna Solved did this case maybe you've watched them
@@kimyatae4424 ohh both of them? Gonna have to watch those both next. Love them both.
Very informative whilst horrific and sad. I just found your channel and love your presentation style, I'm hooked, back catalogue here I come for a binge.
The fact that this could have been avoided with some therapy or if her parents monitored her Internet consumption
First case that made me cry in a while. I was expecting 0 remorse, and that just shocked me. I hope the remorse was genuine, because she's out now
thanks for posting this! ive been asking about it for a while, i've always wanted to know more, but my japanese skills are on child level, lol. i knew a guy in college who was w a a a a a y obsessed with nevada tan, had the same hoodie and everything and would talk about her when asked about his shirt (are you from nevada?)
Wtf? What is there to even talk about? She's an 11 year old child, I don't understand
@@egg_bun_ idk, it was mostly 4chan meme shit but he'd be all HEY YOU GUYS KNOW OF NEVADA TAN
I feel like any grown man obsessed with an 11-year-old girl in any way should definitely be on a list.
@@ChakkyCharizard you know, you got a good point there.
I'm more interested in exactly how and why the young girl acquired that sweatshirt. It's not like it's important to this case, but it's just so odd to me that this very young Japanese girl would be wearing such a seemingly random shirt in a language she probably didn't really understand. Imagine being a University of Nevada-Reno student, perhaps wearing a similar sweatshirt and having absolutely no idea what kind of connotation that could have for those who are familiar with the case.
It's so disturbing that people made fanart and cosplayed as this girl. Like what the hell is wrong with people? This is reality, not some fictional Jeff the Killer crap.
Great job! You're one of a few people that I patron, just because I'm not rich in the first place but the quality of work deserves it I think. I also like being last when you read the patron list!
I am not sure lowering the age of responsibility would have done a damn thing to prevent this. The motivations were childish and the girl's mind was clearly more influenced by the media she consumed than what the legal consequences for her actions might have been. I doubt she could even comprehend that there were consequences. She probably thought it would be just like the movies.
This whole thing is disturbing. Between the glorification and memeification of the girl on the internet, to the "it's a cool setup" for "kids on an island forced to kill each other with various weapons", it really depresses me. I don't think violent media makes for violent kids per say, and at the same time, what kids think of as "cool" can certainly influence their behaviour and decisions. Let alone what the adults around them think is cool.
You should cover the Issei Sagwa aka the kobe cannibal it's a pretty gross but interesting story. How he's not in prison.
The dad should also sue all those disrespectful cosplayers.
