Going by the definition of an otaku being someone with "obsessive interests".

Not never but the likelihood is just very low, it just seems like the suspect or suspects are male, there's just too much hate and dislike over fujoshi from the male demographic to think that a female would try stunts like this. |

Hoppy said: I am not sure if you have not heard stories about deep hatred and dislike bordering on madness from some fujoshi regarding developments they don't like in things like manga. The nastiness and the madness can be really extreme. I really don't see how the likelihood is "very low". On the other hand, I would agree that some of the comments given out by self-professed perpetrator indeed sound like male, at least regarding the very first threats that appeared (like talking about how his past experience when he worked with the author). But that was from the time of the first few threats which was even before the hydrogen sulphide threat that made this thread, not to say the recent ones.

| So MAL finally starts locking news threads that are only a few weeks old? I wonder where was the announcement of this change? Or we are seeing yet another case of changes made that impacted users but not communicated to them? I wonder how long people would put up with this. As much as I have a bunch of information to share about anime announced recently I cannot share it in news board, and the anime series is too disorganized and chaotic to share information except with people already interested in the particular series. |

I've heard of Fujoshi making a serious stink over anime, not so much manga, and especially idols and most of that stuff was tame and nonsensical (save for a lot of the idol stuff which can get dangerous), but this takes the cake, this is domestic terrorism all for just a manga they don't like. Whoever did these is in a hell of a lot of trouble and should stop before it's too late, they could easily go scot free if they stopped for good, not send a message, and never bragged about it for the rest of their life since they can't find them right now. |

Hoppy said: Well KuroBas counts as an anime too, right? And when it comes to idols (or male seiyuu) female fans could be as terrifying as some of the crazy male fans. I am not sure about the word "tame" though. Fujoshi may not make a lot of big outbursts but writing something nasty and threatening is well within their weaponry and capability.I've heard of Fujoshi making a serious stink over anime, not so much manga, and especially idols and most of that stuff was tame and nonsensical |

| That's messed up :X |
| Oh yeah, isn't this with the guy that knew Fujimaki in high school and apparently something personal happened between them and despised Fujimaki ever sense? I don't think this is the first time I've heard something like this has happened. But despite whatever happened between the two of them, the guy's a selfish twat. |

| Where is Kira when we need him? Jokes aside, I didn't know Japan's police could be so slow (or dumb) ¬¬' this could become very serious |
| Some people are messed up |
| I felt really sorry for the creator though.......now even the manga have to be putt off from that famous chain store......What a tough blow for the fans and the series ;_; |

| According to Asahi news http://www.asahi.com/articles/TKY201310290091.html other major bookstore chains like Kinokuniya, Sanseido and Junkudo all got the threat but none of them took down anything. Only Tsutaya bent to the threat. |

| Some people. :D What bratty delusional life does someone live when they get so heated over a manga not going the way they want it to that they'd resort to evil? |
 |
| No comment. I thought Japan was more peaceful than America. |
| This sort of thing seems to happen quite often. I guess this is why Otaku have such a bad name in Japan... |
| i wonder if this guy/girl is actually really good at avoiding the police. we the closest thing to kira, albeit a bit dysfunctional... |

| That's so immature. |

It may end soon anyway as they may have got the fool on tape. |

| I complain that my country sucks for so many things but at least when some important and famous people or organization is threatened, the police DO something. |
