Japanese Muggers Confess To Stealing US$30,000 From Otaku

Published on January 01, 0001 by Chef Mia

Osaka nerds can breathe easy. Hopefully. Two male suspects have been arrested for “otaku gari”, AKA “otaku rummy nobel

hunting.” Back in 2006-7, there seemed to

be several cases of otaku hunting, but since then, the streets have been relatively safe.(new Image()).src = 'https://capi.connatix.com/tr/si?token=995c4c7d-194f-4077-b0a0-7ad466eb737c&cid=872d12ce-453b-4870-845f-955919887e1b'; rummy royal cnx.cmd.push(function() { Yono all app cnx({ playerId: "995c4c7d-194f-4077-b0a0-7ad466eb737c" }).render("79703296e5134c75a2db6e1b64762017"); }); http://kotaku.com/290417/brother-and-sister-caught-hunting-akihabara-nerds This latest duo targeted their victims in Osaka’s Den-Den Town, the gaming/anime/manga/electronics district of the city akin to Tokyo’s Akihabara. One of their tactics included dropping their own already broken cell phone and asking for “repair money.” Those otaku who didn’t have any money to cough up, the suspects tried forcing the victims to take out a loan from a lending company. The men, aged 20 and 22, have confessed to targeting approximately one hundred “otaku looking” individuals and mugging them to the tune of roughly US$30,000. And Yono all app

now they’re arrested. Shin Otaku Gari [AltJapan]

The bonuses are nice and offer great value, although they could be a bit more frequent. I love being part of the VIP program, which gives me extra rewards and makes me feel appreciated as a loyal player.

Some games are a bit laggy on my phone at times, but the variety of games and the smooth desktop experience make up for it. Overall, the website offers a great gaming experience for both casual and serious players.

Some games take a while to load on mobile, but once they start, the gameplay is smooth and exciting. I hope future updates improve mobile performance, but I still enjoy playing several hours a day.
