22yo Sato Airi, a livestreamer who went by Mogami Ai, was brutally murdered on March 11th in Shinjuku City's Takadanobaba. So why are so many people on Japanese social media expressing sympathy for her murderer? (Spoiler alert: it's misogyny.)

While murder is never justified, the reason for the crime is not misogyny, as claimed by the post. The victim (Mogami Ai) owes the culprit large sums of money, which she has yet to return, thus leading up to the crime. www3.nhk.or.jp/news/html/2025…
