Murder in Akihabara

This is something that i found quite shocking (also i just kind of found out about this).

Apparently on June 8th at 12:30 pm in Tokyo's Akihabara shopping district a factory worker went crazy and killed several people. For what i know all the people killed were just innocent Otaku's. Now usually reading something like this doesn't really effect me, but this struck a nerve somewhere. I feel as effected by this as the people who saw this tragic event.

I just the other day saw this in EGM and thought I would bring to the attention of you all in case you didn't know.

Share your thoughts with me on this?


Some days it's not even worth chewing through the restraints.

Wow you'd think after a least a couple of killings people would have tried to stop him or something, so do you know what the weapon was? This story sounds pretty interesting...

uh...dunno ive read that and found it to be quite normal...judging by the society's current state(worldwide)

things like this happen so much that some people(like me),don't get even a bit surprised

but voodoo,as other users already requested

could you say the weapon he used and the reason(since this happened at june 8th,some time has passed,so i demand some i info)

Looks like it was just another depressed & disturbed person lashing out against society.

It seems pretty normal if you compare this incident to others, but it's still pretty wild and sad if you imagine how it went down.
Just walking and some guy jogs by you and slashes you, then he just jogs on.

shouldn't be worried by this kind of thing that much since it's very rare. the media bring this up because it's flashy and, more important, they know ppl will consume this kind of news. diseases kill more ppl than madmen.
