We’ve learned some tragic news – female streamer Ai Mogami has been stabbed to death while livestreaming on the popular Japanese platform Fuwachi.

Mogami (her performing name) was livestreaming near Takadanobaba station in Tokyo around 10 AM Japan time on March 11th when she was stabbed to death by a man, who is now in police custody. Ai was 22 and the man is reportedly said to be in his 40s or 50s.

Some confusion has come about during the incident due to Mogami sharing the same name with a voice actress, and unsubstantiated rumors on the relationship between Ai and the attacker. Japanese news reported on the incident:

Wouldn't Lebanon be a better place to flee too, since they don't have extradition treaties with Japan? But then again, it may not be a good idea if you were a woman to flee there, compared to being a French-Lebanese automotive company CEO who fled to there in a musical instrument box to avoid the Japanese prison system.

Or she could just pay him back, unless he Shylocked her some insane interest. Though probably thought that if even the court didn't do anything, neither will some sad weirdo.

watched someone (a streamer) talk about this. Going over the messages send between AI and her "stalker"

TLDW She got what she fucking deserved. Always pay back your local schizo or get stabbed.

I dont understand why the court held off forcing her to pay back the money she borrowed when the man already won the case and was struggling. All of this could have been avoided but it seemed AI did everything in her power avoid paying back her sum even when she had more then enough to pay back. Entitled sociopathy behavior.

Holy kek, Yen has really gone down the toilet
I don't support stabbing people, but if a deranged fan lets you "borrow" this much fucking money, you really should just pay them back. She's lucky that he couldn't figure out a way to kidnap her and have her "pay him back" some other sick way down in his basement, ala Josef Fritzl

It doesn’t really sound like he was a “fan,” but just someone she was associated with. I could be wrong since most of the stuff about this is in Japanese.
