Question: Do the Japanese go on stabbing sprees instead of shooting sprees because of tight gun control laws there?

Looks like he was consumed by the Soul Edge.

the Japanese don't usually go on sprees at all, as their sociology is entirely different than the United States.

Not impressed...

Fizics: I bet they all dropped crappy loot though.

Yeah, if he was able to solo 14 of them, they probably only dropped some lame low-level greens that aren't even worth disenchanting.

He didn't even use Slice n' Dice.

Sinister Strike spamming, keyboard turning, mouse clicking noob

FTA: "suspect drove his truck into a crowd of pedestrians and then went on a stabbing spree" ..LOL

I'm going to go ahead and blame video games.

Because real men use Envenom?

Revenge must be taken for Lord Asano...

There have been lots of such sprees over the past few years, actually. This would be a scary country if guns were easy to come by.

Just finished a class on Tokugawa Japan. Fairly interesting, but I like the time period before it much better.

/Tokugawa was a big fail
//Kadish FTW

Maybe he played the new Ninja Gaiden game?

/I want the new Ninja Gaiden game

Was the guy's name Hiro Protagonist?

Was part of Snow Crash set in Akihabara or something? I love that book, but I thought it was basically all in "America" and on the raft. Been a while since I read it...maybe time for a re-read.

If he used these, he could have lopped off a double-baker's dozen of heads AND NEVER WORRY ABOUT SHARPENING THEM AGAIN

Wanted for questioning.

Also, that really sucks. Akihabara is a crazy enough place without some asshole stabbing people.

Sure they do, the American news just doesn't talk about it for 6 months when it happens because it's IN JAPAN.

Have they ever had the photoshop contest of what fark would look like if it were a stabbin?

Suicidal Writer

Let him within striking range of your arm first, then shoot. Got it.

Akihabara is the ultra-techie division of Tokyo - so that means - IT'S ALL JACK THOMPSON'S FAULT!

I was kinda hopin' somebody would have made a Wu-Tang Clan reference by now.

/ain't nuthin' ta fark wit

Hold on, a headline referencing ancient medieval japanese history? On Fark? Really? No fart jokes to accompany it? Are we growing up? How do we tell ourselves to stay off our lawns???

Jedekai: Akihabara is the ultra-techie division of Tokyo - so that means - IT'S ALL JACK THOMPSON'S FAULT!

Cool, does that mean we can get him disbarred more quickly because of it?

Does not approve.

There's also a bunch of porn stores and shady maid cafes. Maybe it's sex's fault.

Weeaboos know their history.

Mishima didn't approve of much.

Japan's not all about giant robots piloted by 14-year-old emo kids, magical girls in tight schoolgirl uniforms, or tentacle rape, ya know. I actually studied about Japan in a World History course, and they're a pretty interesting country when it comes to tactics and thought.

Should've used the Death Note.

i shot this video in Akihabara a few months ago. it is a strange place. dork capital of the world. i can certainly understand why someone would want to go on a stabbin' spree.

Maid cafe? Sounds interesting.

Imagine if every civilian faced with this situation had a gun and started firing...chaos could have been averted...

The statue of Bukkake was unharmed. The glazing was intact, and police were coming endlessly from every facet of Tokyo to make sure there was no individuals rigidly aprostrate.

/I'm the first, really?

I was reading the 47 ronin (pretty boring really) while waiting to get my driver's license. I noticed the DL had printed and the tech didnt hand it strait to me like the previous 'customers'. After waiting 20 mins, I inquired wtf he hadnt handed me the printed card. He mumbled something and said he was on break, five min later another tech comes and hands me the DL.

Later, I find out the guy thought I must be a criminal or something and was checking up on me. I have one of those faces where people assume im up to no good (it has made me an honest and indignant person), and i think the book drove his paranoia over the edge. One of those 'in this day and age' people I guess. No $2 bills involved sadly.

sadly off topic, because im bored, im waiting for one of these headlines to be funny, but tells me what i need to know about the story without needing to read it, because thats when i know the world has gone to hell

Unless they are the parents of precious snowflakes who all want to be Snow White. . .

Don't worry! I'm a singin' Ronin, not a stabbin' Ronin!

Nothin beats the Ronin life
Stabbin' folks with my Ronin knife

Actually, no part was set there. But I thought a crazy knife wielding guy in the tech district was like him, and Aki reminded me of the Metaverse.

You could say I reached a little.

jaroho: sadly off topic, because im bored, im waiting for one of these headlines to be funny, but tells me what i need to know about the story without needing to read it, because thats when i know the world has gone to hell

It may be because it's late, but I have no idea what you're talking about. That sentence (and it's just one with an assload of commas) made no sense whatsoever. Are you looking for funny headlines that tell the story, funny headlines that don't tell the story, or unfunny headlines that do/don't _{(please circle one)} tell the story? Which one determines that the world is plunging into hell?
