The death of professional wrestler and reality television star Kimura Hana has prompted the Japanese government to take action against cyberbullying. Kimura was apparently driven to suicide by the intense online abuse she received after her appearances on a popular Netflix show.
The 22-year-old Kimura had been a cast member in the latest season of “Terrace House”, a hit reality show broadcast by Fuji Television and distributed by Netflix. It follows a group of strangers living together in a shared residence, and has launched the careers of several TV and movie stars.
Kimura joined the show in September and was targeted by cyberbullying. The abuse got especially bad following an episode aired in March, in which she yelled at a roommate for accidentally shrinking one of her wrestling costumes. In the days after the broadcast, she received a torrent of hateful messages. She was found dead in her Tokyo home on May 23.

Yes, it was the "cyberbullying" not the mentally and morally deranged _reality_ show and the unwell attention whores who populate it.

Terrace House isn't really like American reality shows. Arguing about laundry and food in a somewhat upset tone is the most extreme thing that ever happens in the show.

I can say the Japanese sure have a communication problem. I wish things would turn around but it is hard for their society to change.

I heard they're trying to scrub the show footage of her off the internet now as if that's going to help.

Any way to find a pretext to criminalize thoughts, language, and expression.

Someone committed suicide because they couldn't properly manage their LAUNDRY.
FUCK THAT IS MESSED UP…but I don't know what that has to do with cyber bullying. Learn to get your shit out of the community laundry if it was that important to you.

They have already done this and perfected it to unreal levels. No one says what is actually on their mind anymore. It is really sad. We live in a society that is so sick that there isn't really even room for individual thoughts anymore.

That was most people's response to this episode.

People sent her messages on Instagram and Twitter telling her to die and kill herself because she knocked the guy's hat off and yelled at him over laundry that she herself didn't take care of.

Looks kinda wack anyway. Like others have said, They seem so emotionally challenged in their lack of response. If I wanted to watch autists I would just look in the mirror.

They should've let that Jersey goblin loose tbh. Just imagine random nips getting bullied by Muttmurricuh's finest.
