Fear: Reiwa Ghost Story - Vol. 4 Ch. 37 - Justice

Who knows what evil lurks in the hearts of men?
A random internet ghost knows!

 

[Skullkrusher]

The real reason Japan doesn't have vigilantes is that everyone who dies, without fail, becomes a butthurt vengeful ghost which proceeds to annihilate 10% of the population every single time. Keep your head down, accept societal standards, don't make waves, just let it happen, or else you and everyone in a 20 kilometer radius goes to superhell forever.

I uh, expected the bit about pushing the groper to be a lot more gorey since I'm pretty sure he tripped the guy face-first into the escalator...

 

[Madologist]

Just in case you missed it, the ghost was the groper. Same mole pattern and all.
Refreshing a proper traditional vengeful ghost story. Nothing too elaborate for the sake of it or stretching a modern issue into a weird story.

Grudges be scary, not to mention anyone killed by a grudge ghost becomes one as does the location.

It takes a surprisingly small fall, but concentrated enough to cause a skull fracture and those might not necessarily bleed that much. Not to mention a plain old concussion is deadly and can be near invisible outwardly.

The real terror this time is fragility of life.

I dunno, this one seems...childish compared to other vengeful ghost stories. I can totally get it if the vengeful ghost is a victim. Here, the vigilante guy likely didn't intend to kill the groper, who was clearly in the wrong, but the groper pulled a kindergarten level "I got punished for my misdeeds?! Then I'm taking you with me! Nyeh nyeh!" This isn't vengeance, this is pure butthurt, thus creating a vengeful ghost zone that will likely kill hundreds more as the collective level of butthurt eventually goes prompt critical.

Ending up in a Chinese liveleak video probably would have accelerated the grudge...

The terrible thing about ghost stories is that sometimes ghosts can be real jerkwads

Das rite, an accident.

 

[gomichandesu]

Bro did nothing wrong lol

 

[Homura]

this one got a bit of a political slant to it

 

[Jatopian]

We just not gonna talk about the first event shown in the manga where he's being a paparazzi stalker?

If you carelessly enact violence on someone you are responsible for what happens even if it didn't match your intent. Such deaths are what manslaughter charges are made from.

Death is not an appropriate punishment for groping. Call the police; they have better techniques for arresting someone without harm, especially in Japan. You do not have to be a vigilante on the freaking Japanese metro, where they have cops.

Oh, I know. I just meant that escalators tend to chew people up, so I expected being shoved face-first into one that's presumably moving would result in more than a little fracture.

I mean extremism aside a lot of the 'call out' youtubers and such end up getting exposed for their own wrong doings too lol

Not to mention any ghostly influence prolly could've made it worse internally that wouldn't show up in an autopsy , unless they don't bother with that unless it was a mysterious death/suspected murder

 

[fight2live]

nice

 

[Goodbyefrankenstein]

Guy was a smug dick virtue signaling for sure but like cmon...Justice by the groper of all people lol

Also the mentioned two-timing actor Ryusuke Ishikura is the same one exposed by the streamer back in Ch. 5!

Justice indeed. And I dare say it's good riddance.
