Holy crap, I was wondering why this story felt so familiar. I had heard about this chick years ago when her pics went viral as the internet called her a “real life Yandere” and romanticized her for being too attractive to kill. News outlets even posted her journal written in blood from her fingers with the words “i love you” scrawled all over the pages. But never have I ever heard the context behind the crime until now. And she’s about to be a free woman in 2023. Just…wow.
@@ToweTiih I think the idea is that if she can’t “have” him nobody else can. And its clear that he was only using her for money. Not justifying her actions, just trying to think like a psycho
@@Nathan-Croft It's the same with the phantom librarian and doctor horror, they're both amazing story tellers but have been silent for a long time, it's such a shame.
Welcome back! And it looks like another true crime story. The way this girl was described, she fits into the Yandere description a bit with the obsession and the will to hurt her Senpai if she has too just to hear him say "I love you." Also shows that some people can never be too careful with these situations.
To be honest Juka is also the victim in this story she clearly needed help and i think Feniks knew it but took advantage of it he moved in with her but didn't pay any attention to her he just used her.... If Feniks can manipulate her like that and take advantage of her despite knowing that she needed help he also knows the consequences of it. Juka just wanted to be loved but Feniks took advantage of it i feel sorry for her even after what she has done
@@jessicalunar7857 oh plz if it was flipped you’d be bitching how women are such victims and don’t deserve being killed over something that may or may not have happened
steven I found your channel almost 4 years ago, you were the very first narrator/animator that I started watching and introduced me to this side of youtube that I love, as always your animations never dissapoint, many of us are always waiting in anticipation for new videos! keep up the good work!
Red Flag 🚩 : Do not date someone that works at a host at a club or someone who is a client at a club. (Stranger Danger) I guess you can if you are careful enough and is able to detect red flags of someone.
It will never cease to amaze me how talented Steven is to be able to do the research and the art animations as well as just being extremely good at telling the story it’s crazy, Another Banger Story telling Steven! 👏👏👍
I know you've been feeling a little burnt out from the youtube stuff Steven, thank you for uploading you're still one of my favourite youtube animators and we all really appreciate your hard work❤️
@@IamtheSpy2005 afaik they did shut it down already, but it managed to raise quite a bit of funds regardless. It was mainly by people who are fans of the yandere character in anime, and she was dubbed the IRL Yandere by her fans. I mean, I also like some very questionable fictional characters, but I wouldn't support a real life murderer 😭
Yea but it ws the boys fault for playing with her heart if he just stopped talking to her or ended his relationship with her when hi didn't feel a spark anymore, idk but in my opinion it was his fault not yuka but i do think that yuka's insane asf
@@NANI-ce8tp Initially I agree Phoneix was a dick, but the video at the end said that Phoneix claimed to never making those promises. So I guess it's a he said she said thing. But even if he did make her those promises, her reaction was way too extreme. She should have talked to him about it or dumped him.
I saw an article, and i just want to share it, like these specific sentences she said; She was then quoted by the police saying, “My plan was to first kill him and then I thought about committing suicide.” During the questioning, it was revealed that the crime was likely the result of a dispute in their relationship, according to Tokyo Reporter. “Since I loved him so much, I just couldn’t help it. After killing [him], I, too, wanted to die,” she told the authorities.
have you ever considered making a podcast on spotify where you read all the thrilling stories there? you have a good storytelling skill and your pronunciation is so clear which can be helpful to those who are learning English through listening
2 years?! wow thats very light sentence for commit attempted murder im glad Phoenix is okay thats a relief but nice to see you uploading again Steve I love your videos.
@@TvTink I know right? the guy was basically using her for money. I felt nothing for him. That doesn't mean I wanted him to die or anything but he was a piece of shit regardless. The girl was obsessive and totally mental. She needed help but instead he lied to her and more. She straight up turned to prostitution for more money. What she did is still wrong, he could've still avoided a lot of it.
She clearly was mentally ill from the start. Obsessed, no self value. He probably saw it and took advantage. I wish someone had intervened on her first of all.
Love Steven D's videos. Yuka almost sounds like Jodi Arias. Obsessed with a guy who she wants a life with but he prefers other girls and unwilling to commit. Willing to ensure the guy will never be with anyone else by any means necessary even murder to make sure of it. Difference is Phoenix survived whereas Jodi's victim, Travis, died.
And that is why I strongly advise against having an infatuation or lusting after a guy/girl. We should love the guy/girl for who they really are instead of liking the idea of them
I was in Akihabara/Tokyo in 2019 when this happened. It was all anyone could talk about. I really liked the animations and Narration in your storytelling!
Phoenix and Yuka never dated. She was obsessed with him and got jealous that he was talking to other girls so she planned to kill him over it. I watched Eleanore neale’s video before I found this one, both did a good job but the fact they dated is false.
@@芸芸-e5jthey don't live together lol.. which tv news broadcast this??? Yuka did want to live with Phoenix, she even prepared everything and moved to an apartment closer to Phoenix's workplace.. but Phoenix couldn't live with her.. Phoenix still lived in the dormitory provided by his workplace. They admitted this in court.
I get the feeling that as soon as her sentence is up there’s gonna be a line of thirsty Yandere fanboys waiting to greet her when she gets out of prison.
Both of them are worst. Obsession never ends well. She was a psycho.And cheating is the worst thing you can do. Call off the relationship. You don't have the right to say no when you took everything she gave.
*AHA!!! I KNEW IT!!!!* I knew it was about Takaoka Yuka the moment I saw the thumbnail/title- Wait a minute....."released between 2023/2024"?.... .....should we worry 😱?
Its Been a while, I miss your videos so much I miss you too, we all miss you I was hoping that you can post one video every week I'm glad that you're back with a new video ☺☺☺
yeah, both of them are not that innocent.. Phoenix took advantage of naive clients like Yuka.. and Yuka took advantage of her sugar daddy to pursue her obsession with host(gigolo) like Phoenix. it's like a vicious cycle.

@@soulemissary of course lol
Oh shit, I remember that
So this is that story..
Well, id like to think that, a "real Yandere" would have killed those around him, and not him, unless its worst case scenario.. but what do I know..

Actually that's what i wanted to say. She was fcked up but he made him more
Meh I really don’t feel bad like yea if she had mental health problems that’s sad but that gives u no right to kill people for zero reason
Yeah Feniks was a dick, but there’s no way anyone can justify attempted murder
So true 100% I hope he gets his karma

I absolutely love Steven true crime stories. They are one of my favorite series so I'm glad he's back with another one.
Whoa.. she was covered in his blood and was casually sitting while smoking and talking on phone.. 💀
Yuka takaoka is the perfect example of a real life Yandere
Yup very obsessed with her crush/man

The sickest part of this is apparently a fanbase set up a GoFundMe to support Yuka D:

Welcome back Steven, and looking forward to more of your horror/true crime stories!
This story evokes very conflicting feelings in me 😅 the ending has me all sorts of confused
In summary, the dude survived, and she got a very light sentence.
Nice animation man and this was such an awesome and a interesting video to watch and enjoy today :]
She clearly was mentally ill from the start. Obsessed, no self value. He probably saw it and took advantage. I wish someone had intervened on her first of all.
he is back, but honestly we need uploads every week or something alike, but great to see an upload again
Same at least weekly or biweekly.
@@Lolapetunia so 3 times a year. Understandable so spend time with family and friends n eat food

I don’t feel sorry for either of them
Watching this now, Especially it's 2023 and soon to be 2024: Good luck, Pheonix. You're going to need it.
I feel for Yuka....
Oh shit.... well nvm she crazy
Steven: the blood on the bed sheets
Me: what blood
And that is why I strongly advise against having an infatuation or lusting after a guy/girl. We should love the guy/girl for who they really are instead of liking the idea of them
You never hear the male side of the story when financially exploited men take revenge, but I've always enjoyed this story nonetheless.
I was in Akihabara/Tokyo in 2019 when this happened. It was all anyone could talk about.
I really liked the animations and Narration in your storytelling!
I'm so glad you're back
Wow I've Missed you Steven 🥲❤️
It sickens me that she got "fans" out of this because as some have said, "But... she's so cute! She's so hot!" Puleeze...😒
Damn- she got sentenced on my birthday- and that’s terrifying that she’s gonna be released either this coming year or the year after that 😳
December 3rd is my birthday too

Not terrifying, at least she will be free.

Glad to see you again! This was a crazy story and a great video! Thanks
Im curious what will happend when yuka is realesed 🗿
Well, she's poor af now, so she'll likely end up back in prison.
@@Nemisis007 true true.
Sooooooo happy to see a new ul!! Missed you & your work!!
Bro remembered his password
Thank goodness you are back ❤
Steven D, you should post more. Especially retelling of real life cases like the John List case, which is my favourite.
I get the feeling that as soon as her sentence is up there’s gonna be a line of thirsty Yandere fanboys waiting to greet her when she gets out of prison.
All I can say is thank god he was ok
I am happy about the video, and how you always deliver...
but OMG that was Brutal XD
Glad you got now stories always amazing please don't be gone to long Steven D Keep them coming awesome work!!!!
According to the wikipedia, Takaoka is now released and out of prison. She now livestreaming games and cosplaying.
Both of them are worst. Obsession never ends well. She was a psycho.And cheating is the worst thing you can do. Call off the relationship. You don't have the right to say no when you took everything she gave.
U know it was just he said she said right and didn’t she supposedly cheat too why isn’t she getting dragged for that
@brennathecatlover4360 Proof that she chested on a guy that she was OBSESSED with?
They weren’t even together
