I'm by no means a Kuroko fan, but I sincerely hope that this is the right guy, that there aren't any others still at large, and that this nonsense can be brought to an end. It's kind of sad that forevermore now I'll think of this series as 'Oh yeah, that one where the crazy guy was being a terrorist over it?'

Although the even funnier thing is that I'm now more aware of the title and interested in checking it out than I would have been otherwise. Good job psycho guy, you've just pushed me into supporting the series when I might not have before, you must feel so proud. Razz

From what I recall, it has nothing to do with Kuroko. The person doing this has/had personal business with the author himself.


I hope we find out if that is true or not. I have a suspicion that he is just some nutcase that merely believes he knows the author.

Edit: I seems I was somewhat right. He simply lied about knowing the mangaka.

EDIT: IN retrospect that was pointless. They're just a bunch of no-name guys on the internet...


Good that this shit got arrested.

No really, someone make a manga or light novel out of these events because they are even more bat crazy than some of the plot twists in active anime within the last year.

Let's see if this is for real, or one of those so-called "confessions."

And what of others continuing the mayhem?

It'd be interesting if a manga/anime/LN tackles this kind of current social issue.

I'm so happy to hear this. Fandom should be a safe place where people can let down their hair and just enjoy themselves, not worry if the Kuroko corn snack or whatever is going to make them sick.

I'm glad for the Japanese fans and hope nothing threatens their safety again.

Isn't it embarrassing to be a middle-aged guy pulling all this childish bullshit? I think that's worse than being caught for the actual crime.

About time the police made real progress, if this is the right suspect, then they're doing it right. If it's not our guy, then I lost faith in Japanese law enforcement.
