Today’s block wouldn’t have been possible without the massive contribution of the Takken Taro part (including adding the questions) from @speranzom in the summary from https://jbbs.shitaraba.net/bbs/read.cgi/music/29852/1553736787 for 2/1 (Saturday).
Note: I try to repeat the Japanese thread as closely as possible here. Where I do make some editorial additions I’ll put them in [ ], though I do occasionally soften the posters’ tone.
- Maho’s Instastory
- Riko’s tweets from yesterday
- Rena’s Instastory Q&A
- Takkentaroâs video: “NGT â What Takkentaro would like to ask at the testimony interrogation session of the defendants (or rather, their own interrogation session)”
- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a1avSkcWsY4
- [note: the following are a list of the question themselves]
- Since itâs the defendants themselves, that is Defendant #1 and Defendant #2 who put forward their finalized statement papers, it begs the question if they are going to possibly perform a interrogation session of their litigating party
- When, instead of a testimony being summoned in from outside, itâs the plaintiff and the defendant themselves who have to stand up on the witness stand and make a verbal testimony. That is called an interrogation of the parties.
- ãQuestion 1: Is there any member which you hung out together with, and ate out with? In case there is, can you give us their names?ã
- That one represents the root cause at the basis of the assault incident on Yamaguchi Maho-san. Even I [Takkentaro] do no think they are implicated in a criminal case kind of way, directly, but I can picture how this way of seeing each other with people that they would merrily hang out and eat out together has led, in a roundabout way, to the assault incident itself. As such, please do tell us what their names are.
- ãQuestion 2: Is there any member with with you interacted via smartphone or any apps? In case there is, can you give us their names, too?ã
- Regarding that part, nothing at all has been clarified, after all. Members who they consorted with, members who are responsible for the decay of good manners, none of this has been examined in the least.
- Both AKS and the third-party committee, they didnât bring themselves to the point of making public the names and showing who that was.
- And when it comes to AKS, they are speaking as though âconsortingâ isnât to mean hanging out having fun. They say that itâs being directly implicated in a criminal case sort of way, committing incitement to crime, or criminal conspiracy, being arrested and then prosecuted â thatâs what they say âconsortingâ means to them. And so they argue that since [members] werenât arrested and prosecuted, they consequently didnât engage in consorting either…
- They are taking the argument that this means that it was all nothing more than Yamaguchi-sanâs misgivings, but this is not the point at all.
- Even supposing there is not direct involvement in the criminal case itself, the suspicions they have on themselves is if there isnât a buddy-buddy relationship with such yakkai wotas.
- If things arenât like that, either they say it clearly that things stand differently, or thereâs no way to look at the whole details of the assault incident, hence why Iâd like to ask that.
- ãQuestion 3: Is there any member with with you went out on dates with, that you had romantic affairs with, in other words that had any deep male-female relationship? In case there is, can you give us their names as well?ã
- Because, Iâd want them to tell us the name of who are those who had a buddy-buddy kind of interpersonal relationship.
- ãQuestion 4: What is the reason you snubbed the third-party committee and refused to collaborate in the analysis of the incidentã
- It seems likely that Kaisei was willing to cooperate as long as they lifted his entrance ban at events, but since the request was declined in the end he did not cooperate. [note: this is written in the research report itself, in fact]
- As for the remaining two people, since they couldnât get in contact with them, they did not offer their collaboration in the least
- Even speaking of the third-party committee, they made their judgement based only on one-sided information coming from the members, and regardless of the fact they could not carry out an information hearing with the perpetrators side, AKS still took a look at the report and decided to hand out âpardonâ, even though it was only a partial product, which accomplished only unilateral research.
- They refused to cooperate, yet on live-streams they would blab on and on ; what about that?
- If you are starting to speak only now, Iâd rather that you speak about the true facts of the incident, what happened, who you are consorting with, and all that related stuff.
- ãQuestion 5: You claim, as the reason why you happen to know Yamaguchi-sanâs cellphone number but you never tried calling her, that it was out of consideration so as to avoid exposing your consorting to the other members. Havenât you ever thought there are numerous ways to conceal information about someone you have an intimate relation with? Moreover, whatâs the reason you never tried contacting her via SMS messages instead?ã
- When the telephone number of someone whoâs calling you is displayed on the smartphone screen, as long as you would register it under the name of someone else, the other girls wonât find out even if they were to see it, so even just giving a call wouldnât supposedly be an issue.
- If itâs true that you could have interactions on Twitter direct messages, then even using SMS messages would have been good enough, now wouldnât they?
- So why is it that you have never done such a thing? Is there anything that you feel guilty about it?
- Isnât it, in reality, that you didnât know at the time? Or alternatively, itâs that you knew of it, but itâs not that you learned about it personally from her, but rather from someone else? Did you pay money to acquire it, or any such thing?
- Because of this, she would have only acted creeped-out at you if you were ever to give a phone call, so you never tried to call before, correct? That’s also one of the reasons, isnât it?
- ãQuestion 6: If itâs true that you already knew her telephone number and her Twitter direct message address by the day of the incident, then how come you didnât contact her in advance to say âIâm comingâ?ã
- If itâs true that you were actually intimate with each other, then such an incident would have never occurred if only you used the cellphone or direct messages to tell her in short that you were just about to go meet with her, right?
- ãQuestion 7: Why is it that you waited for Yamaguchi-san inside of apartment #314, instead of just waiting in front of the elevator or in the hallway?ã
- Wouldnât waiting in front of the elevator have been fine enough? Even considering that you were saying how at the beginning you apparently intended to speak up to her right in the hallway.
- If nothing else, itâs as if you want people to put suspicions on you. As in, werenât you aiming for the right occasion when she would open the door to act out?
- ãQuestion 8: How come you constantly keep making assertions about consorting with Yamaguchi-san, which has nothing to do with the point at issue in the litigation?ã
- Even if you were to make a case about having consorted with Yamaguchi-san, this doesnât mean you can deny the assault incident this way. Nor does it imply that you werenât consorting with other members, either.
- This doesnât serve as a counterargument to the claims by the plaintiff. I can imagine that president Yoshinari would be more than happy if you ever managed to demonstrate there was any consorting between you and Yamaguchi-san, but point is that this is no counterargument.
- So why is it that you continue making such assertions all the time? It inevitably feels weird.
- ãQuestion 9: In the audio recordings data you didnât deny that you grasped her face, so why is it that you are now doing it at the trial?ã
- Right after the incident, when they were accused of clutching her face, they didnât deny it, yet those same culprits for some obscure reason are claiming they didnât do it now at this trial, as in: we just yanked the door back and forth⊠The details of what you are telling now is different from what you spoke at the time. Please explain to us why there is such a difference.
- ãQuestion 10: How come the fields for the signatures and the seal stamps are being omitted in the set-time rental contract for room #602 and in the explanatory pamphlet for a set-time rental contract for room #314? Also, did you inform the judge that you left out the fields for the signatures and the seal stamps?ã
- Seems like they said that the signatures field was cut out from the document originally, but considering things normally, the field for the signatures and the seal stamps isnât something to be cut out from the document…
- In case you were to present it as evidence without first informing that it was left out, wouldn’t this cause to mislead the judge?
- It would make him, maybe, wrongly assume that room #314 was borrowed under the name of the defendant.
- Itâs like they want to be suspected; heâs exactly hoping that the judge would end up being misled this way.
- ãQuestion 11: About the alleged interactions on Twitterâs direct message with Yamaguchi-san: any records of you having given her presents, and any other evidences about the rest, you have showed pretty much nothing of that, why?ã
- How come thereâs no evidences coming forward at all about it?
- In a court trial, no matter how many claims you make, if it turns out that thereâs nothing to attest to it, then this is simply âjust something I saidâ.
- Thereâs none? Did you throw them away? Or alternatively, it would be serious business if it were to be put forward?
- ãQuestion 12: You did submit as evidence that shot from the photo-shooting event in order to assert you are consorting with Yamaguchi-san, but are you honestly thinking you can demonstrate thereâs consorting, with that one photo?ã
- Anyone, seeing that, would go âWhat?â, with âthat thingâ you surely canât go on saying you are consorting, and be appalled at it.
- Is it something you did just for the fun of making people around you feel appalled?
- I really want to hear about your inner feelings: did you submit it, while being seriously convinced that with that thing you could have proven that you were consorting?
- Your perception of reality is a little weird, huh? — I am to the point of wondering that.
- ãQuestion 13: As for the reason why you decided to move over from room #602 to room #314, you are asserting that the rental price would have been more affordable, but isnât that a lie after all?ã
- I gave my thoughts on it in my other videos, but room #314 is up for rent with Livemax as a sub-leaser, and it is more expensive to rent out.
- Unless you take advantage of some promotional campaign, it would cost 150,000 or 160,000 yen a month.
- If you are to take advantage of a campaign, though, you can make it cheaper and lower the price down to as much as 70,000 yen
- Still, room #602 was already much cheaper since the beginning already, with it costing around 55,000 yen a month. So no matter how you look at it, the costs would only end up rising.
- Yet in spite of it, at the court trial the defendants said that they moved over because the rental price was less expensive. And thatâs a lie, a blatant one at that.
- If this isnât a lie, Iâd wish them to explain to us how this cannot be a lie.
- ãQuestion 14: When you were replied to by Yamaguchi-san with, âHow about not lumping me together with the bitches you people are associating with?â, you appeared not to make any particular effort to deny it; who do you think the term âbitchesâ, as said in that context, was referring to?ã
- Since, you know, (the defendant) didnât react with a âthey arenât bitches or anythingâ. I sense he was aware about that. Who is it that came up to his mind? Iâd like to ask him, about that.
- ãQuestion 15: âWhen I would meet with other girls, myself, this was the normal way, so I didn’t expect it would have resulted into (Yamaguchi) getting in, well, such a panic, I mean.â. In this conversation, said to Yamaguchi-san, who are those âother girlsâ appearing in it, who didnât get into a panic at it [the defendant’s visits]?ã
- Who could that be, those people who didnât get into a panic about it? Would that link back to, as is found in the very first question, the argument about the girls they hang out with, that they eat out with, that they might be going out on dates with too depending on the circumstances?
- ãQuestion 16: When did you first learn that room #314 was the room Tano-san was using?ã
- Didnât you presumably already known that this was Tano-sanâs room?
- This also allows for speculations, wondering if you didnât go on to get in there and sign up the contract after you caught wind that she had moved out. That too, Iâd like to ask.
- ãQuestion 17: Who pays for the attorneyâs fee?ã
- The upfront retainer fee is usually 10% of the whole cost.
- Since you are being demanded for 30 million yen, I can imagine that you must have 10% of it, that is 3 million yen, ready with you and you are paying it to the attorney, but the question is where does that money come from?
- Thereâs also some stories about the parents being wealthy, but I want to ask even about that point.
- ãQuestion 18: Are you in any condition to pay 30 million yen, should you lose the court trial?ã
- Even in the hypothetical situation the plaintiff, AKS, were to win and be awarded 30 million yen, what it means is that there wouldnât be anywhere they can take that from, and so the point would be that all this court trial was useless.
- ãQuestion 19: Who do you think is the actual liar in this?ã
- So, yes, who would the actual liar be in this?
- Itâs very clear they want to paint Yamaguchi-san as such, this is what can be sensed from this court trial, but who is the actual liar, actually? The plaintiff, or the defendant?
