The 42-year-old female victim escaped the house in the city of Koga, rushed to a nearby shop and held up a piece of paper that read "please help me", Makoto Hiyama, a senior local police official, said.

The injured woman told police "the suspect became angry over a trouble and my lips were sewed", public broadcaster NHK reported.

Yeah I’m gonna need a little bit more clarification than that.

Do you not stop this person? Was the victim sedated?

This has how to draw an owl vibes. You'd need full on anesthesia for this

Rest of the fucking altercation.

[-] unknown@piefed.social 9 points 16 hours ago

Sedation maybe to stop the victim moving, but not full anesthetic.

The victim here was more likely to have been psychologically abused into submitting to her abusers whims for this though.

Yeah, but then survival instinct due to horrible pain would set in.

Yeah I'm confused too. It's not exactly an immediate process. How does any of that not result in getting an elbow to your eye socket?

[-] PP_BOY_@lemmy.world 57 points 18 hours ago

It's difficult to explain to a gaijin ("foreigner"), but that would go against the deeply-held Japanese concept of kirikoru-ru, which translates roughly to "the idea of not elbowing someone in the eye after they've sewn your mouth shut."

Translation: Kiriko rules.

Yes, yes she does. Please don't sew my lips.
