The Otaku Killer- Child Killer and Necrophile

The Otaku Killer, or Tsutomu Miyazaki, is a serial killer that is responsible for murdering four young girls between August 1988 and June 1989. He murdered the children in Saitama and Japan and would often lure them or force them into his Nissan Langley. After sitting there with them for an extended period of time, he would murder them then proceeded to perform sexual acts on their bodies and photographed and videotaped their staged corpses before sending taunting letters, phone calls, and mementos to the families of the missing children. After murdering four children and attempting to assault a fifth, he was arrested and sentenced to death by hanging.

Tsutomu Miyazaki was born prematurely and had deformed hands that caused his wrists to fuse directly to his forearm; because of this deformity, it was required that he move his entire forearm to move his hand in any direction. From the time he entered elementary school, he was shown how cruel children can be; he was often mocked for the way he looked and because of this, he isolated himself from other children.

At the beginning of his high school career, Tsutomu excelled in his classes and was known to impress his successful, business owning parents. However, his grades started to slip at the end of his school years and when he graduated he ranked number 40 of 56 in his class and did not receive the customary entry to Meiji University like the other students of his class. He had dreams of studying English and becoming a teacher, but after he was rejected from Meiji University he decided to become a janitor and study to become a photo technician.

In the mid-1980’s Tsutomu moved back in with his parents and began to further isolate himself from the outside world. His father owned a newspaper business and was highly respected in the community because of his success; however, Tsutomu showed no interest in inheriting the company. In later interviews he claimed all he wanted at this time was for someone to listen to his problems but his parents were too concerned with material objects to care; he claimed he began having suicidal thoughts around this time.

With the lack of relationship he had with his mother and father coupled with his two sisters cold demeanors towards him, the only unconditional and genuine relationship he had was with his grandfather. After his grandfather’s death in May of 1988, he reportedly consumed some of his ashes in order to “retain something from him.”

A few weeks after this, he was caught watching his sister in the shower. When she confronted him and told him to leave, he began attacking her. When his mother told him he needs to start working more, he attacked her as well.

On August 22, 1988, a day after his 26th birthday, Tsutomu lead four year old Mari Konno into his vehicle and drove her to a remote area under a bridge. After sitting there for thirty minutes, he murdered her then performed sexual acts on her corpse, took her clothes to keep as a trophy, and photographed her nude body. He then dumped her body in a set of hills near his home and returned to it at a later date to remove her hands and feet before cremating the remaining bones and tissue. After crushing her charred bones into powder, he sent a box to her family containing a few of her teeth, photos of her clothes, and a postcard that read: “Mari. Cremated. Bones. Investigate. Prove.”

On October 3, 1988 Tsutomu spotted seven year old Masami Yoshizawa and offered her a ride to which she accepted and he drove her to the same spot he killed Mari Konno. He then killed her in a similar fashion, performed sex acts on her corpse and took her clothes to keep as a memento.

On December 12, 1988 Tsutomu kidnapped four year old Erika Namba after she was returning home from her friends house. Once she was in his vehicle he forced her to undress and he took photographs of her nude body before he murdered her and dumped her body in a parking lot directly adjacent from where he killed her. A letter was then sent to Erika’s family made out of cut out magazine letters that read: “Erika. Cold. Cough. Throat. Rest. Death.”

On June 6, 1989 Tsutomu convinced five year old Ayako Nomoto to let him take pictures of her; he then killed her, took her body to his apartment and spent the next two days performing sex acts on her body and taking photos/videotaping it from different staged positions. Once it started to decompose, he dismembered her and left the torso in a cemetery and the head on a nearby hill; he kept the rest of her remains in his bedroom closet.

After a young girls father caught Tsutomu attempting to put a camera lense inside of his her vagina at a public park, he scared a naked Tsutomu away. Once he returned to retrieve his vehicle, he was arrested. When his home was searched, authorities found 5,763 videotapes containing anime and slasher films; he later attributed his sadistic desires to these movies. While on trial for the crimes, he claimed that his alter ego “rat man” forced him to kill and he had diminished responsibility for the killings because of this. However, he was found guilty of all counts and was sentenced to death.

In 1994, Tsutomu’s father committed suicide. On June 17, 2008 serial killer Tsutomu Miyazaki was publicly hung.

I love the four-horsemen. its such a cool take on the apocalypse. Bible did good

One. Famine is a teenage girl, sipping cappucino foam through the holes of her gas mask. Her eyes are hidden behind tainted black; when you pass her, you see the bright reflection of something red behind the glass. You saw it, but it did not happen. Two. Hundreds of people in the streets are bawling but one of them stays silent. He wears the oil-greased overall of the workshop around the corner. It reads Conquest. His teeth are razor sharp and glisten in the dying sun above. It reminds you of a butter knife. You blink and he’s gone. Three. Four men in posh busniess suits drop dead to the earth. A middle aged lady looks at you with a knife in her hand and a gun at her hip. Someone far away calls out for her. Her name is something British, but you’re sure they called her War. She throws her head back and starts to laugh. It chills you to the bones. Four. An old man smiles at you from a park bench while he throws rotten corn at the pigeons. You realize the pigeons are actually vultures. When you look at the old man again, Death looks back at you. It doesn’t matter. The world around you is already dead.
