Otaku Corpse Carver Gets Life (again not for the Faint of Heart)

A sentence has been passed on the eroge otaku who murdered his female neighbor after he failed to make her his personal sex slave, and then proceeded to grotesquely dismember her corpse in an attempt to dispose of the remains via his toilet.

The judge presiding over the case deemed the death penalty too severe, considering the murder and desecration of the victim’s corpse as not being premeditated, much to the dismay of the victim’s family.

The culprit himself told the court that he considered his own death the only true means of apologizing to his victim.

The results of this case, as well as the murderer’s self-published doujinshi, are not going to help the already repugant image such otaku are cursed with in Japanese society, although this is not of course an entirely unjustified reputation
