Why don't the people in this country realise that if you are getting so pissed off with your family that you want to kill them then maybe its time to, you know, move out?

She probably stopped putting unpanman furikaki on his rice. Or she wouldn't part with her pension so he could go to pachinko. It doesn't really matter what the reason was. He is obviously just another demented Japa with an urge to kill someone. Sad!

I don't know man, 26 y/o kid, no social skills, never been on a date, hates his life. Old woman, completely upset with her own kids leaving the grandkid for her to take care of, one day just loses it and rips into junior, pushing all his buttons, telling him what pathetic fool he is, coming from pathetic parents. I can imagine how that would put somebody over the edge...

Perhaps she was making unrealistic and unreasonable demands. Like he should move out and find his own place, get a job perhaps, stop collecting toy robots. What a sick man - to end the life of an old lady in her 80s, who no doubt gave him a ton of otoshidama when he was a spoilt rotten brat.
