Well, there you have your motivation, in black and white.
Care to guess who brought that tidbit of information up to the public?
Fighto!
Good. Justice has been served.
Rest in Peace to the poor young boy. His family have no doubt had their lives destroyed by this evil act.

No Xi pardon for being a patriotic Chinese?

Would be just the same if the boy were not half Japanese half Chinese.
Kill and be killed.

As always if these psychos wanted to rack up a body count, they should have to start with themselves.

What happened to people that being convicted in stabbing spree in Japan?
China doing better way in protecting people.

The Akihabara killing spree of 2008? He was sentenced to death in 2021 and executed in 2022.
Long live the death sentence!

Not down with everything China does, but for crimes like this I wouldn't say they were wrong.

That's your state-sanctioned killing for the day. Have a great weekend.

Before the execution takes place, there needs to be a thorough investigation of the killer’s motive.
Was it really just a random attack, or did government propaganda of the CCP influence the murderer to target Japanese in a hate crime?

Violeta begets violence.

And this is how you handle it, FOLKS.
Sometimes taking someone else's life is NOT a joking matter as many Psychos seem to think.

This is how the Chinse justice system has managed to keep the Psychopaths under control and it works.

In Japan, they would take the time to thoroughly investigate the motive, as they did in the Aum Shinrikyo subway sarin gas attack, but in China, which is not a country governed by laws, this is the best they can do.
It's the same as burying a railway line before finding the cause of an accident.
As with other crimes, they sent the culprit underground and put a lid on it forever.

Quercetum above....not so silly.
People with mental illnesses like Paranoid Schizophrenia SOMETIMES believe say, the TV is talking to them directly and implicitly telling them to take some action.
I have zero info. on this particular case but have a background in Psychiatry ....not as a patient, but a nurse, and it is common that affected people hear voices or commands .

China's sentence on this deranged killer is just. A psychiatric investigation into why he did it, while possibly professionally interesting, should not have a bearing on the nature of the sentence: this would be unfair on the victim's relatives, and possibly lead other mentally disturbed to not hesitate to commit similar crimes.

Justice means giving each person what he or she deserves. A word taken for granted in times we live in.
In this case. Served. RIP to the little boy who lost his life. A parent should never have to lay to rest a child.

Congratulations. You've drawn online attention. Now you'll die for it.
This advice is basically telling them to hide that they're Japanese. The result of brainwashing the Chinese populace, most who've had nothing to do with WWII, to hate and blame the current Japanese for atrocities committed 80+ years ago.

I wonder how long he will be on death row? Weeks, years?

If they wanted REAL Justice, they’d let affected families take care of the punishment

The CCP should be made accountable for these crimes because it has been promoting anti-Japanese sentiment in education, media, social apps, propaganda outlets to such a point Chinese people seen Japanese people as enemies that got to be get rid of off China. The man is a victim of the regime. The poor Japanese boy is the victim of the CCP.
