@@fyinghigh1868 yeah...dont call the police because a repeat molester + stalker + creep combo of a disgrace to mankind just rubbed up against a woman because you don't want your fun ruined...nice mindset there...
Police: "We can't do anything until they do something illegal." *Man assualts the cosplayer in public* Police: "We can't do anything because you're not a resident of Japan." This is so infuriating to see. I think the only way the police will take action in this situation is if the police will lose face for doing nothing.
True, if it gains traction on internet and spreads into real world, police will have the man caught and everything sorted in 2 days. Most police around the world are like that, except US police, they somehow go out of their way to exert dominance on people without proper knowledge of the law they're executing.
@@Tatian4191 Japanese have a collectivist culture. They will not think about logic as long as the law won't say it. They're very compliant and that's the loophole for exploitation.
It's literally not their fault though blame it on how international laws works they literally said the truth that if she does want to take a legal action then her starting point should be from the embassy since she isn't a citizen so her legal rights are different from a regular citizen
I think the issue is that Japan doesn't have a proper law to prosecute stalkers. Like Mujin said they don't do anything because the stalker did not commit a crime. Stalking is a crime Edit: It's more like the laws protect only the citizen and not everyone
@@aytestarose8903 From the way it was phrased, they only help people residing in Japan, as in if you are a foreigner visiting Japan, like Keekihime is, they don't really do anything in terms of of aiding people who are tourists or visiting Japan, not like they do a lot in terms of stalking even for Japanese people.
I went on a single date with a girl back in 2012, it went okay and we made out a little by the end of the night. Talked for a few more days but it just wasn't clicking. She stalked me for 7 years across, 6 phone numbers, 3 addresses and two state lines before it finally stopped. Stalking can get really crazy, and should be taken seriously.
@@espeon871 It's been about 5 years since there was any attempt at contact, so I feel secure that it's stopped. Still take basic precautions though, just to be safe.
@@Pepe-dq2ib probably because she hasn't attended for years and thought he'd be over her by that point also thinking security, staff, whoever would be more strict that time around regarding troublemakers. She already said she'll be hiring a bodyguard after the incident because it's public knowledge how easily pychos like him can get away with stuff like this and the police and event staff don't really give a toss.
One reason the police don't appear to take it seriously until it gets serious is because a number of the provisions in Japan's anti-stalker laws require multiple complaints before the behavior is legally a crime. Hence the need to file a police report every single time, though even that comes up against obstacles since most police reports only exist inside the physical office where they were made because the documentation is physical (literally stored in a filing cabinet) rather than digital on a shared network. So when filing a new complaint, a victim also needs to say "I also filed a complaint at this police station or this koban, on this date and at this time, so please contact them for copies" and so on. It's a huge pain in the ass and was explained to me pretty thoroughly by the (very cool) officer who handled my stalker situation while I lived there.
I find it incredible that Japan is lauded for its advancements in technology…but their law enforcement can’t afford to create an online database of its criminals? That is wild…and it honestly sounds more like the Japanese would feel ashamed that they’d need to create an online database…but in today’s age, it is practically necessary.
To anyone who’s ever had someone stalk them, never refer to them as “your stalker” or “my stalker.” Instead, call them “THE stalker” to avoid any personal connection whether positive or negative. Just something I heard. Good day.
This is what keekihime said... ETA: She asked that people not refer to that asshole as hers - she basically said, "I refuse to have him connected to me in any way.... I don't want him to be my anything!" This is paraphrased, of course, but the emotion when she said it was just so desperate and painful and sad. It hurt listening to that more than anything. So he is just the asshole who is stalking Keekihime.
@@KippoKupoThey didn’t steal it it’s not like that’s some secret knowledge. It’s common sense and by now people should be aware of it. Unfortunately she called him "stalker of mine" in her tweet
it's a translation issue, in Japanese she can't say it like that as the language just doesn't work like that, then translating it back comes out as "my stalker"
@@KippoKupo My bad, I must've zoned out at that part I normally play things like this as I work. I originally heard this advice from a true crime RUclipsr and thought I'd share.
I don’t know why they don’t do it, I feel like it is definitely impacting their tourism, which is likely a large part of their economy. I know I would never go to Japan if I was a woman.
Japan is still one of the safest countries in the world. These issues are blown out of proportion since the average foreigner in Japan is a famous streamer.
Keekihime getting fired from her talsnt agency then stalked without help from the police, all because of idol fandom and idol obsession? That poor woman really experienced the very worst of Japan
Living in japan is not hell that's overexageration , It has its own flaws and positives like any other place. The places that are hell tho are South America and Africa (Besides besotho) Edit: It's a joke, it's like saying california is hell, it's an overexagerated joke. RELAX
@@ronel7836 From the south america part i can assure you is another overexageration, the only countries that are ass here are venezuela, brasil but only the favelas zone and maybe argentina
@@ronel7836 that's also an overreaction. Africa is a gigantic place and there are good places to live there, (not every country is imploding) same thing with South America but being honest also like it is with Japan it's easier to live in these places if you're a certain skin tone, And also if you can speak the language of course but as with this situation in the video if you're a foreigner and you're not in Japan for a substantial amount of time they won't help you.
I like how everyone is like "this is just like oshi no ko!" I mean its litterally about how horrible the idol industry is? Art reflects reality more often than not.
Ikr and I hate it when people shit on the series for the initial episode where the doctor is kind of creepy about it. I dont mean you have to like him being like that. it's the shows intention of showing and mocking how the idol culture is. It is supposed to make you uncomfortable. It is supposed to show you how normal it is to find people like that in Japan especially. And the show potrays it brilliantly not only about the idol culture and japan but the whole entertainment industry. I haven't read the manga and I've heard rumors abt incest idk if it's true or not but till the point I watched it's a great show potrayi g very real things.
Tbh I'm happy that Oshi no ko let more people known this issue event tho it's been an issue since the first idol era I think. Atleast people(especially content creator etc) are aware when they visit japan
She also has horror stories about her days during the underground idol era. She was forced to do wrestling in her cosplay with men for entertainment, and the men basically assaulted her. She has to keep going because it was for the job. She went home and cried after that recording. The video is still on RUclips, it was very creepy. Glad her Vtubing career took off.
Ew thats so nasty, so happy her vtuber future and present is so bright she deserves safety and comfort. These awful men and awful managers need to be held accountable. The fact people treated her like this is awful.
you know, the worst part about this is if your partner gets stalked, theres nothing you can do about it technically. I got reprimanded for punching her stalker, I couldnt speak Japanese well at that time so I was Strongly arguing with the traffic cop in english. My supervisors handled everything in the end. She got back home I got to continue my job but was frustrated that I was at fault. The more insulting part about it was that the only advise that my supervisor gave me was to 'be careful'. WE WERE WALKING ON THE SIDEWALK TO BUY ICECREAM AT THE CONVINIENCE STORE IN BROAD FUCKING DAYLIGHT. She was supposed to stay there for a month but was cut short. I never heard anything about the guy after that day, asking my supervisors about it would just piss me off as they would dance around the topic until they get to ask about how my nihongo studies. Japan was amazing but good lord they need to do something about this shit. It happened to someone as popular as Keeki, and they still dont give a shit, like who knows what happens to that random girl who no one will ever care about.
Good on you man. That'd be infuriating and getting into legal trouble in another country is always a scary thought (especially when you don't know the language). But you did what you had to do.
Eh, if Japan sucks at doing the right thing then they can't really complain when someone DOES the right thing. I honestly think that they should feel embarassed by seeing how useless and weak they are when dealing with such cases, it's embarassing to see that such an "advanced country" is so backwater when it comes to dealing with this.
Dang.. That sucks. Something similar happened to me and my female friend. Some random dude groped her and I thought "lets see if he likes it" then I held him in place and started groping and sloppy kissing him, saliva everywhere as he started yelling for help. Apparently the justice system had the nerve to kick me out of the country and ban me cause of "repeated offenses" and "disturbing the peace"... No one appreciated the guy on guy action. >:(
Tokyo Metropolitan Police are lazy and corrupt If they started cracking down on stalkers and molesters they'd have to reveal there's actually a problem and they wouldn't be able to pretend it doesn't exist anymore. Kinda like how US police stop arresting people for certain crimes and then say that crime has gone down.
@@Revoncheap dude the judicial system in Japan has A 99% CONVICTION RATE, THE FACT *_HE_* OUT OF ALL PEOPLE GOT THE INNOCENT ENDING IS ACTUALLY INSANE
the saddest thing about it is that it took a foreigner, bc the native japanese girls are taught to keep quiet and eat it up from the day they're born, no matter how much they suffer. imagine how many stories like this or worse are out there, kept quiet to avoid scandals
Wasn't there a Japanese singer who got stabbed by her stalker? And also an incident where the stalker found an idol's location using the reflection in her eyes? Crazy... Just looked it up and the one who got stabbed is Tomita Mayu but about the idol, some people said it wasn't the eye reflection but he extracted geolocation from metadata. The stalker just made that story up to look impressive.
@@vjbd2757 i thought oshi no ko is just basically anime show refrences all the real life tragedies that happen like tomita mayu and hana kimura correct me if im wrong
My cousin worked at an English centre in Hiroshima in 2018. She had a stalker who originally worked at a 7/11 near her work. It got so bad that she left her job and came back to South Africa because the police in Japan did nothing. Even when she was back in South Africa, she was too sacred to leave her parents’ house for almost 3 months in case he followed her back to South Africa.
as someone who actually had to deal with a stalker, i feel so much for this girl. it genuinely made me tear up when you got to the last incident part. i just don't understand how some people do not take even a second to respect someone else's boundaries and are so blinded and obsessed with a person who doesn't even know them.
@@Pepe-dq2ib What you mean with "doxxed herself"? It is easy to know it was her because 1)she has a specific voice and 2)RUclips itself sometimes advertises the real life/other life of "people like her alter ego".
I really feel like a lot of Japan's issues trace back to their basically "hands off" approach to many things. There's times where you clearly shouldn't "leave someone to their own devices" and actually get them some help. But a lot of Japan is honestly scared to do so cause they don't want to "inconvenience or become a burden to someone else". And in some cases, the victims even get blamed. This subject in itself is one massive rabbit hole. Trust me when I say that stalking cases is just a fraction of the tip of the iceberg.
when you can sue someone for stating the truth lots of rich people/mostly companies have a power trip that people outside japan can feel it just think of nintendo, capcom in youtube people need to be careful making vids about them. theres probably more but im just more updated in gaming. i cant even wonder how its like there going around in circles avoiding the subject just to avoid getting sued.
@@Zombie-Hunter kinda going into another subject, but that's how the UK (and people outside of it) feel about the "Just Stop Oil" protesters cause the police only truly got involved when national monuments got vandalized. there's plenty of cases when they should have gotten involved before, like when they blocked firetrucks and such from doing their job
@@artix003 actually, that's just companies and people with power in general. and even some of those without not saying everyone is like that, but there's a lot of cases where people will massively go out of their way to cover things up.
@@DarkFrozenDepthstbf, it was a problem with the law which has now been changed. You can just google police removing just stop oil and you'll get a bunch of articles. Police can't just arrest people lol.
A coworker of mine was stalked by a student. She ended up at social events he was in and only requested him. Luckily, the schools staff protected him and eventually got her banned from that location. I am so glad he had that support system. As for the man that is stalking Keeki- his action at comiket was unusual for any stalker - they typically prefer to isolate their victims and rarely act in front of so many people. Its such a scary situation all aroubd.
@@zeroanimation3956I think the "he" in this story is the one being stalked in OP's story. OP does say luckily the school protected 'him' and got 'her' banned. Guys can get stalked too.
While sexual assault is already terrible enough, the scariest aspect of stalkers is that these mentally unstable people might even potentially resort to more serious crimes of passion such as murder. It makes the idea of becoming a RUclipsr, an influencer, an idol, or any kind of popular person known by many, frightening, especially when it seems like law enforcement across the world just doesn't treat it with the seriousness it actually warrants.. All it takes is one individual who is crazy enough, out of however many fans you might have, for you to be in real danger.
I like how everyone in the comment thread (and I mean everyone) is acting like this is only a Japanese thing. Stalkers? That's a global issue. The U.S only enacted tough stalker laws recently. Oh, and people are conflating idols with singers or pop stars. They're different things. Japan has singers, pop stars, etc but idols are usually girls with no other talents so instead they devote themselves to their fans. Sometimes idols go onto to become singers, models, actors, but initially they have no talent. This is why they're not allowed to date or anything because they have to devote themselves to their fans. Videos like this act like it's a horrible thing, these girls know what they're getting into and they agree to it. It's in their contracts. They're free to leave any time. It's like an actor who signs an lucrative contract saying he'll/she'll only be seen drinking coke in public. Their managers invest in these girls, lots of money, so if they break the rules of the contract, it's no wonder it becomes a scandal. The west doesn't have a job like an idol so it's hard for us to wrap our head around.
Actually false. Because in some states a stalker will get shot or beat to death by the multiple people that might be living at the place. Only people scared are fake people that try to be famous while not even the quality to be famous.
I am a 44 year old male american and I haven't had social media for more than 12 years now. I love my privacy and inner peace. I don't want attention nor confirmation from strangers.
@@Pepe-dq2ib Statements like whatever you just said only reinforce victim blaming; You're basically saying it's her fault that she has a stalker because she's famous and should have expected it. Being famous does not mean you should expect to have stalkers, the only reason there was even a stalker in the first place is because he's fucked up in the head and delusional, and even if keekihime herself wasn't famous the stalker likely would've started harassing another person. Also I would like you to explain what you mean by "doxxing herself"? Because as far as I'm aware the closest thing she did to doxxing herself was telling fans where she was in comiket, which was a huge event with thousands of people present, so obviously she was going to tell fans where she was if they wanted to see her.
On that note, its why Persona 5 exists as well. It went from a globe-trotting adventure concept to a direct crticism about corruption in Japan in the final project.
If I remember correctly Japan also has a high rate of innocents being declared guilty. I've even heard someone say "in Japan you are guilty until proven innocent". Ace attorney absolutely exists because of this
WTF how Insane Law in japan is, You're telling me If you got Stalked more then 10 years, got assault moee then once, you gotta Go to Your embassy filed a report there and then you can report it to japanese police ?
it's extra fucked cause if she fought him off he could charge HER for assault and the cops and laws would side with him. self defense in japan is not a thing.
You really expect for police to do anything when there is anything political? Look at the west and their refugee problem, they side with the attacker most of the time
@@Pepe-dq2ib That's different. Some places, yes, you have a legal obligation to avoid confrontation as much as possible. That's different from a genuine "no self defence" place like S Korea. I'm going to assume (I don't actually know where in the US you live) that you live somewhere without a castle doctrine, which means you can't use force to defend property. That doesn't mean you can't defend yourself if you are physically attacked and have no route of escape. What it _does_ mean is that you can't actively accost them if they're burglarizing your home. A real "no self defence" place like S Korea has laws saying you can't engage even if the other party engages first. Not like the police will side with the other party if you fight back, but both of you will be in trouble because the law says both parties are responsible for engaging in a fight.
@@306CynthiaIIII think you may have something added to your browser (mobile and desktop) that does this to words in any page that look relevant. It's not happening to me, in YT app.
Stalking has been illegal in Japan since 2000 (Act on Regulation of Stalking and Similar Acts). So the police saying to her "We can't do anything unless he does something illegal" says a lot about their ignorance of the anti-Stalking law, or lacking interest of enforcing it
He probably does not fall into that law because all he did was show up to public invitations. Kind of a stretch to call him a stalker IMHO. Assaulter sure.
I know people say this about Japan and how the police does nothing until someone gets hurt.. But I had the same experience here in the Netherlands.. I got stalked by a man at night, he followed me to my house and then when I thought he was gone I went inside. My neighbours later told me he had broke into our building that night and tried to find me by knocking on everyone's door. Then a week later I'd forgotten about the incident and heard a knock on my door late at night while I was talking to friends on discord, I went to go open my door because normally only my neighbours would be able to knock on my apartment door. He tried to push the door open and into my apartment but I quickly put myself in the door and held it tightly telling him "No, you're not coming in! What are you doing here?!" As this happened a neighbour came up the staircase and asked if he was bothering me, I said yes and asked if they could help, the stalker then went to talk to my neighbour and insulted him, my (male) neighbour was offended and scared and he went inside his apartment leaving me alone with the stalker. I tried to tell the man to leave, that I don't want him in my house, he then actually moved forward and with both hands groped my ass, I was so shocked that I immediately shoved him away from me and put on my most aggressive voice telling him that I want him out of the house immediately or I'll call the police. He then ran down the stairs yelling profanities, I in shock called the police and told them about the incident, of course they said they could do nothing as the man was no longer there.. In the year after I'd frequently hear knocking on my door at night (sometimes continuously for 30 minutes), in the end I've called the police 3 times in paralyzing fear and they never even showed up, that they couldn't do anything unless the stalker actually actively broke down my door and physically hurt me. Thankfuly after about a year of this going on the stalker stopped coming to knock on my door, I also had extra locks installed for the sake of safety, I'm a woman living alone, I'm not famous, I don't look like a model (just average looking and curvy), our culture isn't like Japan's.. And yet I have dealt with a stranger stalking me as well, I also have been followed in the street and sexually harassed on the train far too often to call it just bad luck. There is an inherent problem, not just in Japan's society.
@@eev14 I thought you were adding and expanding on how countries treat criminal complaints of foreigners. This question is out of curiosity and knowledge without meaning to offend in any way. But did this happen in your early adult years when you started living alone in a new area far away from close relatives and friends? Or were you already adapt to the area and circumstances surrounding it but still didn't have any defense mechanism or sources to rely on if and when such cases could happen?
For foreigners, Japanese police are absolute joke. They'll do next to nothing to help you out but will look for the slightest infraction to make your day that much more tedious. Self defense laws aren't really a thing in Japan either. So she really couldn't have done much in that situation without landing herself in hot water. I love living in Japan, but some things are really backwards here.
if you think thats backwards, wait till you see the laws in my country. Prosecutors and judges will do above and beyond to release criminals, but they throw the sink at law abiding citizens
@@Pepe-dq2ib at least int he us, assuming where you are from, police will actually arrest him and issue a AVO until she goes back to Austria, the us is very safe for foreigners as they only bully americans.
If you're a foreigner who can't speak Japanese, yes, the police are a joke. This is true for ANY country. Communication is important. Japanese police are just as good as any other police if you can speak the language. They're SIGNIFICANTLY less corrupt than the police in my country (the U.S) as they don't have a for-profit justice system.
Sadly, Japan's low crime rate is attributed in part to them ignoring a lot of crimes, especially SA, and r*pe... They just don't take these things seriously, to the point where they have women-only cars on all the main train lines, so they can basically blame any woman who gets assaulted on a train for "asking for it" by not being in one of those cars (even if they're packed). It's frankly rather insane from a western perspective.
That's why it's important to bring the truth of these people to light. By exposing them to view, they shrink back into their hole. The real problem in Japan is that the method od exposing people via social media, or whatever is illegal with the way that their defamation laws exist. Telling the truth is a criminal activity if it lowers the reputation of someone else. Imagine if that one law changed. The first thing that would be ALL over social media is how the cops didn't do anything, they would be forced to actually protect the citizens of the country, next would be the fact that the Japanese public cannot spread how bad this guy is because he can sue them all. Thing is Keekihime has not thousands of fans but literally millions of fans, and because she speaks Japanese, some of them are Japanese - so there is no way to rein in the vast number of social media posts and just a weeks worth of postings is enough to ruin this guy
When talking about a stalker, it’s best to not call them “my” stalker or “her”, “his”, “their” stalker and instead call them “the” stalker. This can make some stalkers feel more tied to/connected to their victim. Stalkers are the worst…
Keekihime said in her Twitter/X space that had the stalker had a knife she could have easily been killed, just as in Oshi no Ko. That was indeed a frightening, plausible possibility.
I just wanted to add some minor clarification on the whole “Japanese police won’t help her cause she isn’t a citizen” aspect. I’ve seen some people mention that it was actually the staff at the con who lost visuals on the stalker so by the time the police arrived, they couldn’t do anything since they didn’t know where he went. I don’t doubt Japanese police being somewhat dismissive in cases with non-Japanese citizens, but in this case they couldn’t do anything because the staff at the con literally lost the stalker.
yeah so unfortunately that detail wasn't stated in the video but she actually wanted to get the police involved immediately after she calmed down and was separated but the convention staff did lose him and so she couldn't go to the police afterwards since the staff lost the stalker. That's why she decided to continue taking pictures with her fans and photographers since the stalker had left and she had no way of getting anything done. Afterwards she talked to police and that's when they told her to go to the embassy about it. If you want all the details listen to her twitter space it has everything laid out pretty clearly
Americans have an agenda against Japan, since their country has been exposed as toxic now with all the mass shooting they'll do anything to attack other countries, take a whole isolated incident and treat it like an everyday occurance.
Years ago, he followed her on the street on her way home and even waited for her outside a police station when she noticed he wasn't fucking off and the officers dismissed her nonchalantly because "he wasn't doing anything to her physically anyway".
I mean, the dumb thing is typical Internet weebs we’re able to find his online handles. I find it sad that the cops couldn’t really do much where the Internet is coming through in the clutch.
@@Toucanbird It impresses me when someone is able to track the name, info, state/living area of a person using just social media but it stuns me how cops don't always progress like these online people.
All I’m gonna say is that Keekihime is still a prominent figure in the industry. She really is still huge. It’s wild that she is well employed by a huge Japanese corporation and the cops still don’t do anything.
Poor Keekihime, having to go through that and somehow the police failing her. She shouldn’t have needed to deal with that. I hope that from here on she can still enjoy her trips and cosplaying.
Put yourself online for everybody to see, knowing the fandom in it has creeps/stalkers/doxxers, get famous with over 2mil followers, doxx yourself so everyone knows your other identity and doesnt have a bodyguard... Pokimane never goes out in public without a bodyguard and shes in one of the most diverse, safe, mental and liberal country.
Eh, police failing people seem to be a common trend everywhere in the world. Japanese police are really just traffic guards and occasionaly help with the missing kid, otherwise they're as useful as wet toilet paper.
Sorry, just to correct you at 00:43 *EVERY* country has stalkers who don't just stalk famous people. Stalkers become obsessed with their victim no matter their level of public fame. I was stalked when I was in my early 20's (20 years ago) after a man whose house I went to view to rent became obsessed with me. He'd follow me, call me, be outside my place of employment, on the same underground train as me, turn up in the same bars and restaurants, send me texts telling me how good I looked in whatever i was wearing that day. He ruined my life for a year. I told the police and they warned him to keep away but that was it. In the ned he went to prison for a very serious SA and I was able to move so he couldn't find me when he got out. I had to leave behind all my friends as I couldn't risk him finding out from one of them where I was. And I was one of the *lucky* ones. Many women (and men) have ended up hurt, SAd, and even murdered by their stalkers. And the infuriating thing is that even now with better anti-stalking laws, mostly we have to wait for something serious to happen before any real action can be taken. It's an absolutely terrifying thing to live with and it is *everywhere*.
You know what's crazy the difference between men and women stalkers is that women are the smarter stalkers than men. As a man I realized based on personal experiences. Women are patient and tactical on getting close on their victim.
I'm also a landlord and had people multiple times after hearing my voice text to see if i wanted to get a coffee etc and its like no sir, now I won't even consider business with you.
@@Trancyminddid you see the one stalking case where the women killed the dudes girlfriend and pretended to be her texting him for like five years harassment him and even burnt down her own house claiming that it was the ex
@Trancymind Yeah most stalker are men because misogyny and sexism is still an issue even in the west with andrew tate, matt Walsh, and what ever red pill dude have followers and fan and misogyny and sexism can encourage some men to do stuff that are no good
Also add the creepyness of a older man going after women who not around his age or teenager their a reason you seek people aroudn your age because of power dynamics and life experience that will alway be different and can be rippe for abuse Also when a olde guy seek women too young for him or teenger it because girls at that age dont know better of red flag, warning signs, or if their in a bad spot also less lieky to speak out dude power dynamics and lofe experiences
As someone who has heard so many horror stories about stalkers, don't ever say "My stalker" cause they love that attention. Always say "the stalker" or "a stalker" These people live in dululu land so don't expect anything logical.
This!! You just tooke the words out of my mouth. Saying "The stalker" and not "My/Their Stalker" is 100 better because they don't care if the attention is good or bad, if they have that little confirmation that what they are doing makes them form part of the life of the victim they will keep doing it because they only think "They called me theirs, so I am someone important in their life"
even as a man i have that issue with a local stalker woman , i understand completely the feeling you said "the world shrinks so much you dont even want to get out of the house"
Honestly more people should start questioning why authorities have this backwards belief that "a person should not be arrested until they commit an 'actual' crime". This isn't just a thing in Japan but also in other countries. This lunatic has been stalking her for around a decade and even assaulted her live in front of so many people. Are the police waiting until she's murdered to finally go "okay let's arrest him now lol" ??? It's baffling how most people have accepted this as "normal" and don't do anything about it.
"Stalking" is really hard to prosecute, because just walking around in public places is perfectly legal. They'd have to be in your private space and you'd have to CATCH THEM. This guy crossed the line from "stalking" to "assault," and if the cops gave a damn they could easily prosecute him.
Tbh this isn't an issue solely isolated in Japan tho its a global problem where stalking isnt taken seriously and the law wont do anything unless the stalker does something which by then is usually to late the amount of women in the US and UK alone that has been killed by their stalkers even when they reported them multiple times they where being stalked
I just wanna make this known. Please don't call this man HER stalker. It links her to the stalker and thats what he wants. Please call him THE stalker or creep or the assailant
@@Cunningstunts23He forgot to make this clear and it came off as he just throwing it out there on his own, but it’s actually something Keekihime herself explicitly expressed in her twitter space that she doesn’t want any association with the guy though; so if you would respect her wish, it’d be appreciated.
If someone look at Japan with the "same as in anime" type of mindset then it's their fault for not managing their expectation in a realistic way, but when you look at it with logic in mind then Japan is just like any other countries... But yeah your point still stand and it's unfortunate that people saw Japan as a perfect country full of big titty girls like the anime lmao
Why get people so hung up about how to spell words? Like there was some prize attached to it... Ever heard a French or Russian person spell these words? You'd surprised...
Another day, another Mujin upload; we absolutely love to see it and thank you for keeping people like me who don't pay attention to most things in the loop
she shouldnt entertain Racist japan ever again. there are a lot of countries to visit, this incident just made japan a racist and desrespectful country
Saying “her stalker” is dangerous. Once you use possessive words like “her”, “my”, “his” before “stalker” it makes the stalkers feel more special. You have to treat them as insignificant and disconnected.
I moved to Japan a few years ago, and I can confirm how "helpful" the police are, especially to foreigners. When we first moved to Japan, we had a neighbor who was xenophobic and kept calling the police on us for no reason. We didn't break any laws, and yet the police at first would talk to us like we were criminals. Long story short, after at least a dozen calls to the police, our neighbor in a drunken state pushed me outside our home. Police came, but again, they didn't do much. At least our neighbor finally moved away last year, and we've had nothing but peace and quiet since then.
@chaous2000 I don't think they are all racist. Most are incredibly nice and compassionate. My neighbor from the other side is literally an angel who often brings us free fruits. Her daughter and her are honestly incredible. My Japanese is still pretty bad, so when my bad neighbor came out of his house to harass me. My good neighbor literally came out and started yelling at him and defending me 😂😂😂. Never mess with Japanese women from Kansai area. They will mess you up.
@@chaous2000 ah yes call an entire nation racist because of the bad apples. Might as well say all black people hate asians for being in the states or all texans hate latinos.
My goodness, I'm so sorry that you had to go through that. That drunk guy should have at the very least be kicked out of his apartment for harassing you that much.
@@Earliersphere She did live in Japan for a while, but then covid came along and she was very isolated. Eventually moved back and now has a whole apartment set up she can hang out at with IRL friends, so it'd be harder to move again when she has a lot of friends moving there now again.
I remember seeing a video of a young woman being stalked, and she turns around and goes full ape mode, bold legged and charging him like a silver back gorilla and that dude ran for the hills. If all else fails go nuts, because police are useless
I couldn’t imagine putting the effort into stalking someone. That’s never going to work out where she/he is going to be like “yeah I want to date the person who’s been following me around and being weird”.
its what happens when one goes *'ALL DESIRE, ZERO RIZZ'* When one's heart is on fire, smoke gets in their eyes, tunnel vision, man of focus, commitment, sheer will, social status be dammed
You're applying logical thinking, thats the problem: an obsessed person, a stalker, is beyond both logic and thought, so they wont analyse their own expectations, let alone actions.
This type of stalking isn't rational, though. They'll see little things done as being messages to them, confirming the love. They'll believe that when the person doesn't openly respond, that their managers or others are trying to get in the way of their mutual thing. Or else they'll believe that they are the only one who truly understands the object of their desire or that the person belongs to them . To them, it already is, or it is fate, and so on. They are not quite right in the head. It is far removed from going to a party you weren't going to go to, but then you heard the person you have a crush on will be there, so you go because maybe you'll make a connection. These people already believe a connection exists, and a very strong one at that.
One thing that I noticed in a lot of Anime and Videogame productions in Japan is that their interpretations of the police system are always portrayed as useless or always try to stop the main characters. Sonic, Mario, Phoenix Wright, etc. They really aren't afraid to make crack at their own laws. And that's not even mentioning the Defamation suits.
There was the whole thing with The Monster With 21 Faces. Now I can kind of comprehend the motive to why they would do such a thing... Not an endorsement in any way of what they did, it was horrible. Just saying I kind of get their criticism of the police now...
You can’t help but tell bad for the person being stalked, these people are downright creepy and people having to deal with this must live in constant fear, like imagine you are going to Japan for a vacation, and next thing you know your getting stalked, would not want to live there as longs as this keeps happening, wish luck to anyone who deals with this shit
It's also because it's so easy for stalkers in Japan. The "safeness" of this place makes everything accessible, even your personal information especially where you live. Like, you can just walk in an apartment building and no one would pay attention. There are CCTVs for access points but who even looks at those or are those even recorded? It's scary especially for normal people because who would even think that they could be stalked if they're not popular, right? I hope Keekihime is now safe and that she's protected by her company now. I also hope this incident is a turning point for stricter laws against stalking even for foreign victims in Japan.
I don't know how but you are the best english speaker I found on youtube that makes me have no need to check on subtitles even though I'm not fluent. Somehow I'm fully understand what you said. Good job and thank you!
Sounds like that police officer didn't want to be bothered, or didn't know how own countries law. I would reach out to the embassy and then report the officer for refusing to do his job because she was a foreigner. Don't just say yes and take what they say as fact that there's nothing you can do till he tries again.
The dark side of Japan is not just stalking, but the law is a joke, like if they met in court after the incident where she kicked him she could have been in more trouble than he, because mental damage is not considered, while she retaliated physically. Japanese law is just 60 years behind other countries of similar industrialization. On the other hand, that the police couldn't do anything at the airport, that is rather normal in every country, because you can't punish someone for a thought crime and the airport is a public place, so at that point he didn't do anything illegal. The problem is, at that point they should have taken his identity and the moment the second incident happened he should have been on the shortlist for prison.
Man, I just don't get how people can concoct these fantasies of love with someone they don't even know and think it's real. I also wonder why stalking is so common in Japan. It's crazy, man.
In Japan it's become a norm and has been to not be a burden to others to not inconveinence them, this means to not speak badly of others publicly and countless other behaviors that make the country appear a utopia but in fact is an actual dystopia hidden by a facade.
They're crazy. Don't bother trying to understand. Japan also has over a 100 million people with a different culture in terms of dealing with mental health problems, how people interact with each other, etc. When you have that many people, with a pretty open connection to the Western world and internet, you get more exposed to the problems that they face.
I said this in a video about this incident, and everything about this incident made me PISSED. How the Japanese police didn’t help her, NOR DID THE STAFF, and how the stalker has been doing this for 10 WHOLE YEARS. I genuinely hope for Keekihime’s sake and safety and I hope the Japanese police actually DOES SOMETHING INSTEAD OF IGNORING IT. Edit: Seeing the stalker‘s face creeps me out, even now.
Really good informative video, but just a pointer: Normally it is advised against calling them "*her* stalker" since this alone can feed their delusions. Keekihime refers to him as "the stalker" as well and not "my stalker".
This whole situation is just disgusting... parasocial exists, but you never want someone who's as dilusional as this ... guy ... This case needs more attention and clarification for the public, how dangerous stalking can be and potentially could be, if there are no boundaries ... Thank you for your very informative video! I really like your structure and the infos you selected. Not too much indepth but still enough to have the context for this specific case! Keep it up! :D
I have to say I was so excited to see another Mujin drama video talking about the world's craziest shit that is happening in the world. Love your takes on news. Makes it quite exciting
One of the worst things in Japanese culture is the "don't rock the boat" mentality. Even Kojima was looked down upon because he was a "westernaboo" until he became a literal rock star in the video game industry. Hell, Konami still hates him and got rid of him to steal his IP which they nosedived into the ground because he doesn't wanna work under them but instead as an equal due to his legacy.
@@AxleTrade japan also bought the rights of Destiny 2 and Helldivers 2. Bungie no longer have any IP for Destiny 2. then they started massive layoffs in bungie
Just hearing about this makes me feel disgusted. I can't even imagine what she is going through. Hope she is doing well and that sh*t of a human suffers for what he has done. I love Japan, so hearing about this is heartbreaking, but there will always be people like him. I just hope that everyone will have a safe and happy life.
As much as the lack of protection police gives to stalking agents sucks, it was good on the airport police during that first incident to have other police check up on Keekihime at Comiket. Their hands were tied but at least they went out of their way to make sure she was fine.
I experienced this when i was in japan. I was just out on the streets exploring Ueno, and then stop at front of mosburger to check out their menu and then this chubby japanese guy pushing his bicycle and with a covered face mask came up to me and asked me where i am from and if i was traveling with anyone. I thought he was just being friendly so i just replied with my usual cautious answers when traveling alone, "I am from australia, and i am traveling with a group of friends". He then said goodbye and pretended to walk away. He actually walked away from about 2 minutes but came back stood about 8 meters away from me and kept taking photos of me. I ignored it and continued walking, he kept following me around and continued taking photos and calling someone. I got worried and i knew that if i went back to my hotel, he would know where i am staying and if i kept going, he would kidnap me because he was talking to someone on the phone. Luckily i saw 2 policemen walking. I didnt know japanese so i just walk next to the police and then asked them how to get to certain place in english. As expected, they didnt speak much english and only able to understand and point. Also police in japan seems to be more of a tourist guide more than actual law enforcers. Lucky for me, this spooked the stalker out and he disappeared after this moment. I went straight to a japanese dollar store and bought myself a box cutter to arm myself but the rest of my trip was safe and i didnt need to use it.
@@P.90.603 true, but japan is special. You can be SA'd for years by your own father and the case is still dismissed because the court thinks you "wanted it" because you didnt "fight back enough". This isnt something that would happen in the US.

Police: "We can't do anything because you're not a resident of Japan."
This is so infuriating to see. I think the only way the police will take action in this situation is if the police will lose face for doing nothing.
True, if it gains traction on internet and spreads into real world, police will have the man caught and everything sorted in 2 days.
Most police around the world are like that, except US police, they somehow go out of their way to exert dominance on people without proper knowledge of the law they're executing.

Japanese have a collectivist culture. They will not think about logic as long as the law won't say it. They're very compliant and that's the loophole for exploitation.
It's literally not their fault though blame it on how international laws works they literally said the truth that if she does want to take a legal action then her starting point should be from the embassy since she isn't a citizen so her legal rights are different from a regular citizen
Goes to the embassy
"We can't do anything because now it's an international diplomatic issue"

Edit: It's more like the laws protect only the citizen and not everyone
Its normal there. Some places dont allow foreigners and if you call the cops, they side with the places that are being racist.
Honestly, they don't help japanese citizens too much either. It feels worse because she is resigned to this fact.
@@aytestarose8903
From the way it was phrased, they only help people residing in Japan, as in if you are a foreigner visiting Japan, like Keekihime is, they don't really do anything in terms of of aiding people who are tourists or visiting Japan, not like they do a lot in terms of stalking even for Japanese people.
Most cops will refuse to help stalking victims
I went on a single date with a girl back in 2012, it went okay and we made out a little by the end of the night. Talked for a few more days but it just wasn't clicking. She stalked me for 7 years across, 6 phone numbers, 3 addresses and two state lines before it finally stopped. Stalking can get really crazy, and should be taken seriously.
Imagine if you'd given her the pipe. She'd be living in your attic right now. Matter of fact, go check just to make sure.

@@xFreya90 why doesnt she have a bodyguard? Even big youtubers in the US have bodyguards, Pokemane never goes in public without one.
@@Pepe-dq2ib probably because she hasn't attended for years and thought he'd be over her by that point also thinking security, staff, whoever would be more strict that time around regarding troublemakers. She already said she'll be hiring a bodyguard after the incident because it's public knowledge how easily pychos like him can get away with stuff like this and the police and event staff don't really give a toss.
One reason the police don't appear to take it seriously until it gets serious is because a number of the provisions in Japan's anti-stalker laws require multiple complaints before the behavior is legally a crime. Hence the need to file a police report every single time, though even that comes up against obstacles since most police reports only exist inside the physical office where they were made because the documentation is physical (literally stored in a filing cabinet) rather than digital on a shared network. So when filing a new complaint, a victim also needs to say "I also filed a complaint at this police station or this koban, on this date and at this time, so please contact them for copies" and so on.
It's a huge pain in the ass and was explained to me pretty thoroughly by the (very cool) officer who handled my stalker situation while I lived there.
Thats great to hear
I find it incredible that Japan is lauded for its advancements in technology…but their law enforcement can’t afford to create an online database of its criminals?

To anyone who’s ever had someone stalk them, never refer to them as “your stalker” or “my stalker.” Instead, call them “THE stalker” to avoid any personal connection whether positive or negative.
Just something I heard. Good day.
This is what keekihime said...
ETA: She asked that people not refer to that asshole as hers - she basically said, "I refuse to have him connected to me in any way.... I don't want him to be my anything!"
This is paraphrased, of course, but the emotion when she said it was just so desperate and painful and sad. It hurt listening to that more than anything.
So he is just the asshole who is stalking Keekihime.

it's a translation issue, in Japanese she can't say it like that as the language just doesn't work like that, then translating it back comes out as "my stalker"
@@KippoKupo My bad, I must've zoned out at that part I normally play things like this as I work. I originally heard this advice from a true crime RUclipsr and thought I'd share.

Japan is still one of the safest countries in the world. These issues are blown out of proportion since the average foreigner in Japan is a famous streamer.

She got back home I got to continue my job but was frustrated that I was at fault. The more insulting part about it was that the only advise that my supervisor gave me was to 'be careful'.

I really feel like a lot of Japan's issues trace back to their basically "hands off" approach to many things.
There's times where you clearly shouldn't "leave someone to their own devices" and actually get them some help. But a lot of Japan is honestly scared to do so cause they don't want to "inconvenience or become a burden to someone else". And in some cases, the victims even get blamed.
This subject in itself is one massive rabbit hole. Trust me when I say that stalking cases is just a fraction of the tip of the iceberg.
when you can sue someone for stating the truth lots of rich people/mostly companies have a power trip that people outside japan can feel it just think of nintendo, capcom in youtube people need to be careful making vids about them. theres probably more but im just more updated in gaming. i cant even wonder how its like there going around in circles avoiding the subject just to avoid getting sued.

Guys can get stalked too.
While sexual assault is already terrible enough, the scariest aspect of stalkers is that these mentally unstable people might even potentially resort to more serious crimes of passion such as murder. It makes the idea of becoming a RUclipsr, an influencer, an idol, or any kind of popular person known by many, frightening, especially when it seems like law enforcement across the world just doesn't treat it with the seriousness it actually warrants.. All it takes is one individual who is crazy enough, out of however many fans you might have, for you to be in real danger.
I like how everyone in the comment thread (and I mean everyone) is acting like this is only a Japanese thing. Stalkers? That's a global issue. The U.S only enacted tough stalker laws recently. Oh, and people are conflating idols with singers or pop stars. They're different things. Japan has singers, pop stars, etc but idols are usually girls with no other talents so instead they devote themselves to their fans. Sometimes idols go onto to become singers, models, actors, but initially they have no talent. This is why they're not allowed to date or anything because they have to devote themselves to their fans. Videos like this act like it's a horrible thing, these girls know what they're getting into and they agree to it. It's in their contracts. They're free to leave any time. It's like an actor who signs an lucrative contract saying he'll/she'll only be seen drinking coke in public. Their managers invest in these girls, lots of money, so if they break the rules of the contract, it's no wonder it becomes a scandal. The west doesn't have a job like an idol so it's hard for us to wrap our head around.
Yes this happened to Christina Grimmie when she was at a meet and greet, an obsessed fan shot her 3 times and she died :( RIP
@@minmaelim That's terrible to hear. I feel sorry for her and her loved ones
You're lying and making a strawman. Everyone doesn't think that you clown
Actually false. Because in some states a stalker will get shot or beat to death by the multiple people that might be living at the place. Only people scared are fake people that try to be famous while not even the quality to be famous.
My wife is Japanese, and she was the first person my age I have ever met without any social media, due in large part to problems like this.
I am a 44 year old male american and I haven't had social media for more than 12 years now. I love my privacy and inner peace. I don't want attention nor confirmation from strangers.
@@Pepe-dq2ib Statements like whatever you just said only reinforce victim blaming; You're basically saying it's her fault that she has a stalker because she's famous and should have expected it. Being famous does not mean you should expect to have stalkers, the only reason there was even a stalker in the first place is because he's fucked up in the head and delusional, and even if keekihime herself wasn't famous the stalker likely would've started harassing another person.
Also I would like you to explain what you mean by "doxxing herself"? Because as far as I'm aware the closest thing she did to doxxing herself was telling fans where she was in comiket, which was a huge event with thousands of people present, so obviously she was going to tell fans where she was if they wanted to see her.

There is a reason why Ace Attorney exists - someone basically made a whole gay lawyer series out of their frustration with the Japanese legal system.
On that note, its why Persona 5 exists as well. It went from a globe-trotting adventure concept to a direct crticism about corruption in Japan in the final project.
Don't forget Judgment and Lost Judgment.
If I remember correctly Japan also has a high rate of innocents being declared guilty. I've even heard someone say "in Japan you are guilty until proven innocent". Ace attorney absolutely exists because of this
WTF how Insane Law in japan is, You're telling me If you got Stalked more then 10 years, got assault moee then once, you gotta Go to Your embassy filed a report there and then you can report it to japanese police ?
it's extra fucked cause if she fought him off he could charge HER for assault and the cops and laws would side with him. self defense in japan is not a thing.
You really expect for police to do anything when there is anything political? Look at the west and their refugee problem, they side with the attacker most of the time
@@Earliersphere That's not true at all.
@@Earliersphere where i live in the U.S, if somebody robs my house and i defend myself, the criminal could sue me because i am supposed to run away.
@@Pepe-dq2ib That's different. Some places, yes, you have a legal obligation to avoid confrontation as much as possible. That's different from a genuine "no self defence" place like S Korea. I'm going to assume (I don't actually know where in the US you live) that you live somewhere without a castle doctrine, which means you can't use force to defend property. That doesn't mean you can't defend yourself if you are physically attacked and have no route of escape. What it _does_ mean is that you can't actively accost them if they're burglarizing your home. A real "no self defence" place like S Korea has laws saying you can't engage even if the other party engages first. Not like the police will side with the other party if you fight back, but both of you will be in trouble because the law says both parties are responsible for engaging in a fight.

Stalking has been illegal in Japan since 2000 (Act on Regulation of Stalking and Similar Acts). So the police saying to her "We can't do anything unless he does something illegal" says a lot about their ignorance of the anti-Stalking law, or lacking interest of enforcing it
He probably does not fall into that law because all he did was show up to public invitations. Kind of a stretch to call him a stalker IMHO. Assaulter sure.
The aggressive messaging and everything would be enough in most European countries for them to be at least alert of it @@shugyosha7924
I know people say this about Japan and how the police does nothing until someone gets hurt.. But I had the same experience here in the Netherlands..
I got stalked by a man at night, he followed me to my house and then when I thought he was gone I went inside. My neighbours later told me he had broke into our building that night and tried to find me by knocking on everyone's door.
Then a week later I'd forgotten about the incident and heard a knock on my door late at night while I was talking to friends on discord, I went to go open my door because normally only my neighbours would be able to knock on my apartment door.
He tried to push the door open and into my apartment but I quickly put myself in the door and held it tightly telling him "No, you're not coming in! What are you doing here?!"
As this happened a neighbour came up the staircase and asked if he was bothering me, I said yes and asked if they could help, the stalker then went to talk to my neighbour and insulted him, my (male) neighbour was offended and scared and he went inside his apartment leaving me alone with the stalker.
I tried to tell the man to leave, that I don't want him in my house, he then actually moved forward and with both hands groped my ass, I was so shocked that I immediately shoved him away from me and put on my most aggressive voice telling him that I want him out of the house immediately or I'll call the police.
He then ran down the stairs yelling profanities, I in shock called the police and told them about the incident, of course they said they could do nothing as the man was no longer there.. In the year after I'd frequently hear knocking on my door at night (sometimes continuously for 30 minutes), in the end I've called the police 3 times in paralyzing fear and they never even showed up, that they couldn't do anything unless the stalker actually actively broke down my door and physically hurt me.
Thankfuly after about a year of this going on the stalker stopped coming to knock on my door, I also had extra locks installed for the sake of safety, I'm a woman living alone, I'm not famous, I don't look like a model (just average looking and curvy), our culture isn't like Japan's.. And yet I have dealt with a stranger stalking me as well, I also have been followed in the street and sexually harassed on the train far too often to call it just bad luck. There is an inherent problem, not just in Japan's society.

This question is out of curiosity and knowledge without meaning to offend in any way.
But did this happen in your early adult years when you started living alone in a new area far away from close relatives and friends? Or were you already adapt to the area and circumstances surrounding it but still didn't have any defense mechanism or sources to rely on if and when such cases could happen?
For foreigners, Japanese police are absolute joke. They'll do next to nothing to help you out but will look for the slightest infraction to make your day that much more tedious. Self defense laws aren't really a thing in Japan either. So she really couldn't have done much in that situation without landing herself in hot water. I love living in Japan, but some things are really backwards here.
It has its silver linings because some kick streamer got assaulted for basically being racist. Bastard.
if you think thats backwards, wait till you see the laws in my country. Prosecutors and judges will do above and beyond to release criminals, but they throw the sink at law abiding citizens
@@Pepe-dq2ib at least int he us, assuming where you are from, police will actually arrest him and issue a AVO until she goes back to Austria, the us is very safe for foreigners as they only bully americans.
If you're a foreigner who can't speak Japanese, yes, the police are a joke. This is true for ANY country. Communication is important. Japanese police are just as good as any other police if you can speak the language. They're SIGNIFICANTLY less corrupt than the police in my country (the U.S) as they don't have a for-profit justice system.
@@Pepe-dq2ib No on cares about the US and Commonwealth countries. Enough with the whataboutism.
Sadly, Japan's low crime rate is attributed in part to them ignoring a lot of crimes, especially SA, and r*pe... They just don't take these things seriously, to the point where they have women-only cars on all the main train lines, so they can basically blame any woman who gets assaulted on a train for "asking for it" by not being in one of those cars (even if they're packed). It's frankly rather insane from a western perspective.

I didn't even know all this about her. This is really horrible.
Sadly police do nothing about this in most places until its to late
That's why it's important to bring the truth of these people to light. By exposing them to view, they shrink back into their hole. The real problem in Japan is that the method od exposing people via social media, or whatever is illegal with the way that their defamation laws exist. Telling the truth is a criminal activity if it lowers the reputation of someone else.
Imagine if that one law changed. The first thing that would be ALL over social media is how the cops didn't do anything, they would be forced to actually protect the citizens of the country, next would be the fact that the Japanese public cannot spread how bad this guy is because he can sue them all. Thing is Keekihime has not thousands of fans but literally millions of fans, and because she speaks Japanese, some of them are Japanese - so there is no way to rein in the vast number of social media posts and just a weeks worth of postings is enough to ruin this guy
Even after you're dead they try to prove you did it to yourself in many parts of North America.
When talking about a stalker, it’s best to not call them “my” stalker or “her”, “his”, “their” stalker and instead call them “the” stalker. This can make some stalkers feel more tied to/connected to their victim. Stalkers are the worst…
I see we are now getting into Oshi no ko levels of territory here 😨
When you realize that Oshi No Ko is basically telling you are real facts about idol and entertainment culture in Japan
Keekihime said in her Twitter/X space that had the stalker had a knife she could have easily been killed, just as in Oshi no Ko. That was indeed a frightening, plausible possibility.
@@RKNancy oshi no ko was literally a reflection of how shi*ty the idol industry can get
@@whatever_art and yet, people watch shows like that, and still think that stalking/violence is a good idea. People never learn.
@@TheShiningEnergy agreed
I just wanted to add some minor clarification on the whole “Japanese police won’t help her cause she isn’t a citizen” aspect. I’ve seen some people mention that it was actually the staff at the con who lost visuals on the stalker so by the time the police arrived, they couldn’t do anything since they didn’t know where he went. I don’t doubt Japanese police being somewhat dismissive in cases with non-Japanese citizens, but in this case they couldn’t do anything because the staff at the con literally lost the stalker.
yeah so unfortunately that detail wasn't stated in the video but she actually wanted to get the police involved immediately after she calmed down and was separated but the convention staff did lose him and so she couldn't go to the police afterwards since the staff lost the stalker. That's why she decided to continue taking pictures with her fans and photographers since the stalker had left and she had no way of getting anything done. Afterwards she talked to police and that's when they told her to go to the embassy about it. If you want all the details listen to her twitter space it has everything laid out pretty clearly
Americans have an agenda against Japan, since their country has been exposed as toxic now with all the mass shooting they'll do anything to attack other countries, take a whole isolated incident and treat it like an everyday occurance.
Years ago, he followed her on the street on her way home and even waited for her outside a police station when she noticed he wasn't fucking off and the officers dismissed her nonchalantly because "he wasn't doing anything to her physically anyway".
I mean, the dumb thing is typical Internet weebs we’re able to find his online handles. I find it sad that the cops couldn’t really do much where the Internet is coming through in the clutch.
@@Toucanbird It impresses me when someone is able to track the name, info, state/living area of a person using just social media but it stuns me how cops don't always progress like these online people.
All I’m gonna say is that Keekihime is still a prominent figure in the industry. She really is still huge. It’s wild that she is well employed by a huge Japanese corporation and the cops still don’t do anything.

17:46 super senior behaviour 😭why did he think that would charm her at all
Cuz if he was sane he wldnt even be stalker but hes insane
Sorry, just to correct you at 00:43 *EVERY* country has stalkers who don't just stalk famous people. Stalkers become obsessed with their victim no matter their level of public fame. I was stalked when I was in my early 20's (20 years ago) after a man whose house I went to view to rent became obsessed with me. He'd follow me, call me, be outside my place of employment, on the same underground train as me, turn up in the same bars and restaurants, send me texts telling me how good I looked in whatever i was wearing that day. He ruined my life for a year. I told the police and they warned him to keep away but that was it. In the ned he went to prison for a very serious SA and I was able to move so he couldn't find me when he got out. I had to leave behind all my friends as I couldn't risk him finding out from one of them where I was. And I was one of the *lucky* ones. Many women (and men) have ended up hurt, SAd, and even murdered by their stalkers. And the infuriating thing is that even now with better anti-stalking laws, mostly we have to wait for something serious to happen before any real action can be taken. It's an absolutely terrifying thing to live with and it is *everywhere*.
You know what's crazy the difference between men and women stalkers is that women are the smarter stalkers than men. As a man I realized based on personal experiences. Women are patient and tactical on getting close on their victim.
I'm also a landlord and had people multiple times after hearing my voice text to see if i wanted to get a coffee etc and its like no sir, now I won't even consider business with you.
@@Trancyminddid you see the one stalking case where the women killed the dudes girlfriend and pretended to be her texting him for like five years harassment him and even burnt down her own house claiming that it was the ex
@Trancymind Yeah most stalker are men because misogyny and sexism is still an issue even in the west with andrew tate, matt Walsh, and what ever red pill dude have followers and fan and misogyny and sexism can encourage some men to do stuff that are no good
Also add the creepyness of a older man going after women who not around his age or teenager their a reason you seek people aroudn your age because of power dynamics and life experience that will alway be different and can be rippe for abuse
Also when a olde guy seek women too young for him or teenger it because girls at that age dont know better of red flag, warning signs, or if their in a bad spot also less lieky to speak out dude power dynamics and lofe experiences
As someone who has heard so many horror stories about stalkers, don't ever say "My stalker" cause they love that attention. Always say "the stalker" or "a stalker" These people live in dululu land so don't expect anything logical.
This!! You just tooke the words out of my mouth.
Saying "The stalker" and not "My/Their Stalker" is 100 better because they don't care if the attention is good or bad, if they have that little confirmation that what they are doing makes them form part of the life of the victim they will keep doing it because they only think "They called me theirs, so I am someone important in their life"
even as a man i have that issue with a local stalker woman , i understand completely the feeling you said "the world shrinks so much you dont even want to get out of the house"

Honestly more people should start questioning why authorities have this backwards belief that "a person should not be arrested until they commit an 'actual' crime". This isn't just a thing in Japan but also in other countries. This lunatic has been stalking her for around a decade and even assaulted her live in front of so many people. Are the police waiting until she's murdered to finally go "okay let's arrest him now lol" ??? It's baffling how most people have accepted this as "normal" and don't do anything about it.
"Stalking" is really hard to prosecute, because just walking around in public places is perfectly legal. They'd have to be in your private space and you'd have to CATCH THEM.
This guy crossed the line from "stalking" to "assault," and if the cops gave a damn they could easily prosecute him.
They cannot, "innocent until proven guilty" still. Although on a watch list it's not impossible.
Because if that happens, every single damn gamer would be arrested for 'promoting terrorism'.

Saying “her stalker” is dangerous. Once you use possessive words like “her”, “my”, “his” before “stalker” it makes the stalkers feel more special. You have to treat them as insignificant and disconnected.
I moved to Japan a few years ago, and I can confirm how "helpful" the police are, especially to foreigners.
When we first moved to Japan, we had a neighbor who was xenophobic and kept calling the police on us for no reason. We didn't break any laws, and yet the police at first would talk to us like we were criminals.
Long story short, after at least a dozen calls to the police, our neighbor in a drunken state pushed me outside our home. Police came, but again, they didn't do much.
At least our neighbor finally moved away last year, and we've had nothing but peace and quiet since then.
use the word that really describes them, racist.
@chaous2000 I don't think they are all racist. Most are incredibly nice and compassionate. My neighbor from the other side is literally an angel who often brings us free fruits. Her daughter and her are honestly incredible.

I couldn’t imagine putting the effort into stalking someone. That’s never going to work out where she/he is going to be like “yeah I want to date the person who’s been following me around and being weird”.
its what happens when one goes *'ALL DESIRE, ZERO RIZZ'*
When one's heart is on fire, smoke gets in their eyes, tunnel vision, man of focus, commitment, sheer will, social status be dammed
You're applying logical thinking, thats the problem: an obsessed person, a stalker, is beyond both logic and thought, so they wont analyse their own expectations, let alone actions.
This type of stalking isn't rational, though. They'll see little things done as being messages to them, confirming the love. They'll believe that when the person doesn't openly respond, that their managers or others are trying to get in the way of their mutual thing. Or else they'll believe that they are the only one who truly understands the object of their desire or that the person belongs to them . To them, it already is, or it is fate, and so on. They are not quite right in the head.
It is far removed from going to a party you weren't going to go to, but then you heard the person you have a crush on will be there, so you go because maybe you'll make a connection. These people already believe a connection exists, and a very strong one at that.
My heart aches for her... She's so resilient to keep on doing what she loves, in spite of everything
One thing that I noticed in a lot of Anime and Videogame productions in Japan is that their interpretations of the police system are always portrayed as useless or always try to stop the main characters. Sonic, Mario, Phoenix Wright, etc. They really aren't afraid to make crack at their own laws. And that's not even mentioning the Defamation suits.
There was the whole thing with The Monster With 21 Faces. Now I can kind of comprehend the motive to why they would do such a thing... Not an endorsement in any way of what they did, it was horrible. Just saying I kind of get their criticism of the police now...
Also, that line about her 'not doing much' during 2020 makes me laugh. Because, well...
okay, hooman.
LMAOOOOO I GET THIS ONE
Well... she's selling fried chicken... or phoenix? I dunno...

You can’t help but tell bad for the person being stalked, these people are downright creepy and people having to deal with this must live in constant fear, like imagine you are going to Japan for a vacation, and next thing you know your getting stalked, would not want to live there as longs as this keeps happening, wish luck to anyone who deals with this shit
This is horrible, why can't people leave others alone, I hope she feels better soon
Thankfully, she has a lot of friends in her "other" persona's company
Japan has a serious simping problem
It's also because it's so easy for stalkers in Japan. The "safeness" of this place makes everything accessible, even your personal information especially where you live. Like, you can just walk in an apartment building and no one would pay attention. There are CCTVs for access points but who even looks at those or are those even recorded? It's scary especially for normal people because who would even think that they could be stalked if they're not popular, right? I hope Keekihime is now safe and that she's protected by her company now. I also hope this incident is a turning point for stricter laws against stalking even for foreign victims in Japan.
when even elementary school students use public transpo because of how safe it is. It's a double-edged sword sometimes.

Sounds like that police officer didn't want to be bothered, or didn't know how own countries law. I would reach out to the embassy and then report the officer for refusing to do his job because she was a foreigner. Don't just say yes and take what they say as fact that there's nothing you can do till he tries again.
Unfortunately the embassy told her they can't do anything until it happens again. Because on their record it had only happened once.
The dark side of Japan is not just stalking, but the law is a joke, like if they met in court after the incident where she kicked him she could have been in more trouble than he, because mental damage is not considered, while she retaliated physically.
Japanese law is just 60 years behind other countries of similar industrialization.
On the other hand, that the police couldn't do anything at the airport, that is rather normal in every country, because you can't punish someone for a thought crime and the airport is a public place, so at that point he didn't do anything illegal. The problem is, at that point they should have taken his identity and the moment the second incident happened he should have been on the shortlist for prison.
i'm Austrian, but I never knew about all this! I feel so sorry for her, sending lots of love :( 💖
Man, I just don't get how people can concoct these fantasies of love with someone they don't even know and think it's real. I also wonder why stalking is so common in Japan. It's crazy, man.
In Japan it's become a norm and has been to not be a burden to others to not inconveinence them, this means to not speak badly of others publicly and countless other behaviors that make the country appear a utopia but in fact is an actual dystopia hidden by a facade.

its a problem all over the world with parasocial relationships perpetuated by social media. the Japanese Police are just really incompetent
They're crazy. Don't bother trying to understand. Japan also has over a 100 million people with a different culture in terms of dealing with mental health problems, how people interact with each other, etc. When you have that many people, with a pretty open connection to the Western world and internet, you get more exposed to the problems that they face.
I said this in a video about this incident, and everything about this incident made me PISSED. How the Japanese police didn’t help her, NOR DID THE STAFF, and how the stalker has been doing this for 10 WHOLE YEARS.
I genuinely hope for Keekihime’s sake and safety and I hope the Japanese police actually DOES SOMETHING INSTEAD OF IGNORING IT.
Edit: Seeing the stalker‘s face creeps me out, even now.
Really good informative video, but just a pointer: Normally it is advised against calling them "*her* stalker" since this alone can feed their delusions. Keekihime refers to him as "the stalker" as well and not "my stalker".
Some people js have no chill 💀😭
Fr 💀 get a therapist
@@S3PH13 Honestly 😭
@@S3PH13not in this economy, sorry kids.
@@D4C_LoveTrain1 do you know how much therapy cost? Just shake it off like a man, aint nobody got time for this.
This is absolutely diabolical
Police everywhere be like : we can't protect you from something before it happens, it has to happen first.
This whole situation is just disgusting... parasocial exists, but you never want someone who's as dilusional as this ... guy ...
This case needs more attention and clarification for the public, how dangerous stalking can be and potentially could be, if there are no boundaries ...
Thank you for your very informative video! I really like your structure and the infos you selected. Not too much indepth but still enough to have the context for this specific case! Keep it up! :D
I have to say I was so excited to see another Mujin drama video talking about the world's craziest shit that is happening in the world. Love your takes on news. Makes it quite exciting
MUJIN MENTIONED, WHERE IS MY BIG CERTIFIED MUJIN HUG
Japan loves to show the world how polite they are, but refuses to help foreigners. How contradicting is that.
One of the worst things in Japanese culture is the "don't rock the boat" mentality. Even Kojima was looked down upon because he was a "westernaboo" until he became a literal rock star in the video game industry. Hell, Konami still hates him and got rid of him to steal his IP which they nosedived into the ground because he doesn't wanna work under them but instead as an equal due to his legacy.
@@AxleTrade japan also bought the rights of Destiny 2 and Helldivers 2. Bungie no longer have any IP for Destiny 2. then they started massive layoffs in bungie
Just hearing about this makes me feel disgusted. I can't even imagine what she is going through. Hope she is doing well and that sh*t of a human suffers for what he has done. I love Japan, so hearing about this is heartbreaking, but there will always be people like him. I just hope that everyone will have a safe and happy life.
As much as the lack of protection police gives to stalking agents sucks, it was good on the airport police during that first incident to have other police check up on Keekihime at Comiket. Their hands were tied but at least they went out of their way to make sure she was fine.
Let's go another mujin video my favourite commentary RUclipsr
I experienced this when i was in japan. I was just out on the streets exploring Ueno, and then stop at front of mosburger to check out their menu and then this chubby japanese guy pushing his bicycle and with a covered face mask came up to me and asked me where i am from and if i was traveling with anyone. I thought he was just being friendly so i just replied with my usual cautious answers when traveling alone, "I am from australia, and i am traveling with a group of friends". He then said goodbye and pretended to walk away. He actually walked away from about 2 minutes but came back stood about 8 meters away from me and kept taking photos of me. I ignored it and continued walking, he kept following me around and continued taking photos and calling someone. I got worried and i knew that if i went back to my hotel, he would know where i am staying and if i kept going, he would kidnap me because he was talking to someone on the phone. Luckily i saw 2 policemen walking. I didnt know japanese so i just walk next to the police and then asked them how to get to certain place in english. As expected, they didnt speak much english and only able to understand and point. Also police in japan seems to be more of a tourist guide more than actual law enforcers. Lucky for me, this spooked the stalker out and he disappeared after this moment. I went straight to a japanese dollar store and bought myself a box cutter to arm myself but the rest of my trip was safe and i didnt need to use it.
I swear, I am addicted to Mujin videos
Okay.. that's creepy
Japanese police and law have a very bad track record on taking women seriously and on womens rights in general
It's like that everywhere. I mean, most sexual assault cases are dropped in the US.
@@P.90.603 true, but japan is special. You can be SA'd for years by your own father and the case is still dismissed because the court thinks you "wanted it" because you didnt "fight back enough". This isnt something that would happen in the US.
Mess with my Oshi, you done bruh
same here
Babe wake up, new mujin video just dropped 🗣️🔥
believe it or not, you don't have to be famous to have a stalker in america either
And just when i wanted to go to bed, mujin dropped another banger
