First of all my respects go out the victims families.


I was there only yesterday and would have been there today if it wasn't for Tokyo drift and the toy fair in Odiaba. I only found out when I got off the train at Akiba to play some Gundam kizuna and saw shops closed and cordons out. I asked around and quickly found out that it was a serious event.

There was blood still in the street and camera crews filming it. After getting over the initial shock I made my way back to Ueno feeling very sad about what had happened.
FFS! Akiba is a safe playground for old and young, weird and normal. No-one deserved what this asshole did. I hope he gets the death penalty after a long time in jail.

But I will say this...
Every day in London someone is stabbed and it goes from one up per day. Do not let this sick event in Tokyo make you feel less safe. It was a one off attack not an everyday thing.
