Choose your poison.
You need the women to make little Nips. The little Nips grow into big Nips, who make more animes. Without the women, you eventually run out of anime, or at least any good ones.

Curious, what's the far-right beef with Grandpa Abe? I don't think the grandson of Kishi and member of Nippon Kaigi could piss them off.
>the weapon was a shotgun >all handguns and rifles are already illegal in Japan, but you can own a shotgun if you take a 12 hour course, keep it in a safe, pass comprehensive background and mental checks, and report every individual shot you fire to the authorities, handing in your shell casings as you use them before you are allowed to buy new ones
They're unironically gonna ban the last three guns left in the country lmao
Probably not, looks like a wooden board with two pipes taped to the top and a pretty crude firing mechanism, I feel like I’ve seen the exact same build before online

Looks like the assassin used a homemade shotgun
Wait a minute is that Sam Hyde in the background? He can’t keep getting away with it!?
My understanding is that Abe was reasonably popular, and that getting any kind of gun in Japan is like a 10 year process. Who could have had such significant beef with him that he'd assassinate a former PM, AFTER he'd left power?
>Who could have had such significant beef with him that he'd assassinate a former PM, AFTER he'd left power?
Abe was saying that every japanese male should get a gf, but did not give free nip gfs during his rule.
Lots of salty gfless nips wanting him dead.
Ultranationalists angry that he didn't go full DAI NIPPON TEIKOKU while in power, seething commies, some nutjob convinced Abe stole his idea for an anime. Take your pick. Japanese crazies come in all manner of flavours and while fewer in number than most countries, they make up for it by being 10x more schizo
They aren't interested; they make way too much money of smuggling contraband, prostitution, and extortion. Besides, a Yakuza assassin would have a modern gun instead of something homemade.
>Curious, what's the far-right beef with Grandpa Abe?
There isn't any. he is regarded as mostly a lame-o conservative, but he had an admirable level of nationalism compared to most 1st-world politicians in his time

I mean. Lots of people try in the states. But secret service has just gotten very good at their job. Abe's guards got sloppy and lax, Japan's lack of crime culture softened them.
Unless something has changed recently, they literally hang people. They don't tell anyone when it'll happen either, once all the appeals are done, there will be a random day where the prisoner gets transferred to a secret location for hanging, then they'll announce that it's done after the fact. No lead up, no dates given to anyone, even the executee.
Japan's death penalty is pretty fricked up. The death row inmate is never informed of his date of execution. Not even a warning. On a random day, couple of guards are just gonna go into the cell and drag the prisoner out to be hanged. The date could literally be like 6 months after the inmate arrives to his cell, or 5 years after, or 25 years after, or 50 years after.
It's almost as bad as terrorist groups who rehearses the execution of the hostage week after week until one day they do it for real out of the blue.
>Is Klaus Schwab about to execute order 66?
All this after the satanic NWO commandments the Georgia guide stones been destroyed. More like order 666. i hate the anti-Christ.
Right now in japan they have this "Anti-NHK Party" which is sort of a joke party, around the idea of ending funding of their state broadcaster NHK. Apparently they are getting a lot of popular support. It would be crazy but convenient if this guy turned out to be one of them.
The heart is not pumping blood normally, but this can be treated with chest compressions. Brain death can theoretically be delayed with this indefinitely as long as there is still enough blood on the body.
Who knows the weapon was a crude Black person jigged (black powder) thing but he was supposedly blasted point blank. Hopefully it was just bird shot or whatever moronic shit Japs can actually get over there.
yeah this sort of distance doesn't really jive with homemade shit shotgun

Given how autistic Japan is, I wouldn't put it past the assassin to have actually made fully rifled barrels for actual bullets. Maybe even made the bullets too, machined out the casing, found a source of something that burns close enough to black powder, set up the headspacing, etc.
It's entirely possible they're calling it a shotgun because it looks like one, not because they have any knowledge of what it really is.

He missed the first shot. Keep in mind that he was shooting at a completely stationary target; Abe didn't move off the X after the first boom. If the assassin didn't have the second barrel or if Abe had hit the deck, the outcome could have been very different.
Why would someone shoot Abe? Thats literally the exact opposite of what he wants to happen.
They shouldn't be wasting thier time shooting him, they should be out there shooting thier load into the fertile womb of a young Japanese woman
Damn, just beat me to posting the same pic. Looks like it's got some kind of pistol grip and I can't see anything that looks like a slamfire handle, so I think it's a bit more complicated than a typical pipe gun.
People can get revived from cardiopulmonary arrest. Occasionally.
NYTimes (yeah, I know, but they tend to have good live updates on this kind of thing) had a source that said he was unconscious and had no vital signs by the time he was in the helo to the hospital. Doesn't sound good.
Looked very black powder from the video I saw of the assassination, way too much smoke to be modern shotgun shells. I wish I could find the clip to post here but I saw it on TV.
It kind of looks like one of those shitty Winchester Liberator four barrel shotguns. I wonder if dude 3D printed it and hand loaded it like a four barrel blunderbuss. Would explain all the smoke and would've made it more likely for him to land hits.
because dumb fricks who grew up without a father don't know anything about metalworking or mechanics, so the only form of manufacturing they can possibly grasp is braindead shit like pushing a button on a 3d printer and letting it run.

You do use actual metal, you print all the other shit.
Blood on his chest and arms indicates it wasn't a slug; whether it was buckshot, birdshot, or whatever the guy managed to stuff into a bullet remains to be seen.
>Former Japanese prime minister Shinzo Abe reportedly showing no vital signs
He is as good as dead.
https://www.abc.net.au/news/2022-07-08/former-japanese-prime-minister-shinzo-abe-shot-live-updates-blog/101221152
Surprised to know that Japs are still capable on doing this crazy shit like high level assassination in this day and age. I personally doubt this is political in nature but more of a schizo doing shit but still, the audacity is something else.
To my friends in Japan: I will be happy to comfort any young lady suffering from this tragic event, furthermore, I would be more than willing to help fulfill Abe’s last wish
Japan has a defense treaty with the US. Killing a head of state automatically constitutes an act of war. If the assassin was FSB, that would mean that the Japanese could potentially invoke it and automatically pull the US into a war with Russia.
It was an Asian, I assume it was a Jap.
So... Tuvan like Defense Minister Shogun maybe?

>Franz Ferdinand 2.0 about to kick this into high gear
My body is ready
Spacing out. Security for a former world leader, in a country like Japan? Those shitheels figured their job was just to stand there looking mildly intimidating to keep the crowd from getting too uppity, not be on alert for potential assassins.
It's how it always has been in Japan. The people are up close and personal with politicians. People mob them from all directions. My wife has shaken hands with Based Aso before at a rally.
Unless there's a meme sniper like in an anime I have no idea how this went down. Shooter was behind him by some distance, had a short barrel boom stick of some kind, and managed to make his two shots count. Now in this picture they're putting pressure on his bleeding (?) chest. Hinting at full penetration.
The ones in yellow shirts are Koenkai members (a kind of political rallying club. Every major party has them in every town). The kneeling girl is also wearing a yellow shirt under her cardigan so she's part of the koenkai too. The woman with the bag is probably just a normal spectator trying to render aid.
Seems like it's basically two garden variety pipe bombs but with one open end on each. I don't see any kind of trigger mechanism so I wonder if he manually lit them with some kind of fuse.
>I don't see any kind of trigger mechanism so I wonder if he manually lit them with some kind of fuse.
I take this back, looks like there's some kind of wire, so probably electric ignition. Push-button (as opposed to wheel and flint like a Bic) lighters are really common in Japan so it might have been harvested from one of those.
a machined shotgun with a full barrel, a stock, and sights, sure
this looked like a homemade black powder gun with a short barrel and no sights. we don't really know what the spread is like or even what he loaded it with.
>literally no clue what your poi is gonna be like
It's a fricking shotgun you noguns. The normal method of aiming them is just looking over the barrel, and hunters normally use them at much longer distances than 10 feet.
An inaccurate trajectory compounds with distance. At extremely short ranges, imperfections arising from an improvised barrel and (maybe) ammo mean very little unless the weapon was unusably flawed.
>or a schizo doing it for a silly reason.
Like the KyoAni fire? Someone blaming Abe's policies on his yuri headcanon crumbling would be the absolute funniest shit
(Breaking) Former PM Abe died in hospital after being transported. According to Jiji reports, his cause of death was damage to the heart and blood loss.
more accurately "as opposed to ironically zipgunning somebody"
where ironically doing it means you "had access to real guns but decided to make/use a zip gun anyway for the lulz" or something
I watched a video of Yoshitomo Imura making the revolver on the top far right before he got arrested. It ended with him firing blank cartridges outdoors. It's likely.
>be so incompetent as to let a former head of state get shot >from less that a dozen feet awat >in a country with some of the harshest firearm regulation in the world
I can only imagine the shitstorm these bodyguards are gonna face.
I was wondering why it was taking so long to confirm. JFK took only half an hour to be declared dead (getting shot in the head is different to some jank gun to the back, but still).
Complacency is the enemy I guess.
I wonder why this doesn't happen more often, this dude can't be the only schizo who can slap a bunch of pipes on a 2x4.

Meme grandpa who wanted nothing more than for the Japanese to have sex for the purpose of procreation.

You need the women to make little Nips. The little Nips grow into big Nips, who make more animes. Without the women, you eventually run out of anime, or at least any good ones.
God damn newbies.
He was relatively sane as politicians go. And memeable too.
Abe was Japan's biggest supporter of rearmament. This is probably related to that.
>Won a 2/3rd majority, the first step towards activating constitutional amedment

Chest looks clean but his stomach is full of blood
Is it home made or black market?

Shop made. Witness on NHK says it looked like a mini bazooka.
the video of the moment he was shot shows tons of smoke, he either made black powder or harvested it from fireworks or something.
the gun appears to be 2 pipes duct taped to a wooden board.

But in the event it is able to shoot bullet, which ones? It seems unfit for ACP and too hard to shot .12/.20 shells.
Abe actually had a security detail. Some moron managed to walk up and get close enough for his home made hand cannon. Not just one shot but two.
Oh shit it's a matchlock
He shot past the guards so I'm guessing the whole shotgun spread thing is a meme after all
>what are slugs
Blood on his chest and arms indicates it wasn't a slug; whether it was buckshot, birdshot, or whatever the guy managed to stuff into a bullet remains to be seen.
blood on chest and arms could also be a transverse shot with a slug or ball which would frick someone up real bad
How much do you think a shot from a shotgun actually spreads?
>Former Japanese prime minister Shinzo Abe reportedly showing no vital signs
He is as good as dead.

It was fricking electrical tape lmao
Ai upscale?
>AI upscaling
moron
Two pipes, a plank and shitton of tape. Maybe some hinge and another plank as firing system?
black powder, two pipes, some wood and tape
gun control doesn't work
Surprised to know that Japs are still capable on doing this crazy shit like high level assassination in this day and age. I personally doubt this is political in nature but more of a schizo doing shit but still, the audacity is something else.
To my friends in Japan: I will be happy to comfort any young lady suffering from this tragic event, furthermore, I would be more than willing to help fulfill Abe’s last wish
>Race mixing
That's literally the opposite of his last wish
Ah, but half a nip is better than no nip.

I want the leash to be taken off NATO goddamnit
Japan isn't part of NATO
Japan has a defense treaty with the US. Killing a head of state automatically constitutes an act of war. If the assassin was FSB, that would mean that the Japanese could potentially invoke it and automatically pull the US into a war with Russia.
So... Tuvan like Defense Minister Shogun maybe?
Yes brother
He's not the head of state.
Shut up and stop ruining my anime war fantasy
can't you go be a dumb c**t in some other thread? not everything needs to be about ukraine and putin jackass.
>can't you go be a dumb c**t in some other thread?
No
It was an Asian, I assume it was a Jap.

Have you seen the rapists from Bucha
Confirmed as 41 year old Tetsuya Yamagami.

jesus you are a moron

Sounds American. Time to visit Hawaii again.
I wish to strangle you fricking homosexuals so much. 1 thing happens and now you're obsessed with that backwater shithole.
WHAT IS HIS ENDGAME

Zainichi confirmed!

My body is ready

WTF THOSE BODYGUARD DOING? FRICKING jerk off?
Japan is not america, bodyguards are there just to discourage some drunk fricker from punching the guy instead of for armed assassination attempts.
Spacing out. Security for a former world leader, in a country like Japan? Those shitheels figured their job was just to stand there looking mildly intimidating to keep the crowd from getting too uppity, not be on alert for potential assassins.
It's how it always has been in Japan. The people are up close and personal with politicians. People mob them from all directions. My wife has shaken hands with Based Aso before at a rally.
wtf are you clowns talking about? That's extremely short range.
easily doable with a crude shotgun.
/k/ only has experience in video games
it looks like a slam fire w duct tape holding the pipes together

the shot
Unless there's a meme sniper like in an anime I have no idea how this went down. Shooter was behind him by some distance, had a short barrel boom stick of some kind, and managed to make his two shots count. Now in this picture they're putting pressure on his bleeding (?) chest. Hinting at full penetration.
Oh frick
Good thing they're wearing masks.
Good night sweet prince.
Why is that guy holding pepper spray to Abe?
look like spray paint
The rabbit hole goes ever deeper
why are there women there, are they even trianed medics?
His assistant perhaps?
Wife?
Nah. His wife doesn't usually go on the road with him. Akie doesn't look like any of those women either.
The ones in yellow shirts are Koenkai members (a kind of political rallying club. Every major party has them in every town). The kneeling girl is also wearing a yellow shirt under her cardigan so she's part of the koenkai too. The woman with the bag is probably just a normal spectator trying to render aid.
Probably campaign staffers.
Seems like it's basically two garden variety pipe bombs but with one open end on each. I don't see any kind of trigger mechanism so I wonder if he manually lit them with some kind of fuse.
>I don't see any kind of trigger mechanism so I wonder if he manually lit them with some kind of fuse.
I take this back, looks like there's some kind of wire, so probably electric ignition. Push-button (as opposed to wheel and flint like a Bic) lighters are really common in Japan so it might have been harvested from one of those.
From what I’ve seen two of them were both trained nurses who were with Abe at the time
abe has a pretty serious chronic intestinal inflammation problems. so yeah they're probably his medical staff.
mask-chan is cute
Abe's not the only one who's had his clothes ruined today
He was like 5 feet behind him. Have you ever fired a gun? You can shoot a man-sized target with a shotgun from well over a hundred feet, my guy.
a machined shotgun with a full barrel, a stock, and sights, sure
this looked like a homemade black powder gun with a short barrel and no sights. we don't really know what the spread is like or even what he loaded it with.
he's like fricking 10 feet away. what the "spread" is is irrelevant. that is pissing distance
10 feet away with a homemade short barreled black powder gun without sights in the middle of a crowd. literally no clue what your poi is gonna be like
>literally no clue what your poi is gonna be like
It's a fricking shotgun you noguns. The normal method of aiming them is just looking over the barrel, and hunters normally use them at much longer distances than 10 feet.
An inaccurate trajectory compounds with distance. At extremely short ranges, imperfections arising from an improvised barrel and (maybe) ammo mean very little unless the weapon was unusably flawed.
I’m hoping it was either a Russian asset, or a schizo doing it for a silly reason.
>or a schizo doing it for a silly reason.
Like the KyoAni fire? Someone blaming Abe's policies on his yuri headcanon crumbling would be the absolute funniest shit
Based, all yurigays will be cleansed from this Earth.
considering this is japan it would most likely be the latter
Did Abe ever say anything against Assad?
NHK saying he was taken to the hospital without vitals, not looking good for Abe-san
From a video taken by an NHK reporter.
oh that's jank as hell. I'm amazed that was able to fire twice
two barrels ?
good idea in the case of using improvised powder/ammo, that's the only expedient way to get a 2nd shot if your first was a dud.
Two shots
that smoke cloud and sound makes it feel more like a blunderbuss than anything else
It's over, he's dead. F
translate it weebs
sadge
RIP
F
That's a fake account.
NHK is still saying condition unconfirmed.
Fake account
(Breaking) Former PM Abe died in hospital after being transported. According to Jiji reports, his cause of death was damage to the heart and blood loss.
What are the chances the shooter was a glowie straight out of The Farm?
I'd say pretty low.
2x4s, duck tape, and piping is all you need. Citizens don't need high powered military rifles. You lost, /k/.
>someone unironically zipgunned a former head of state
>someone unironically zipgunned a former head of state
As opposed to ironically shooting somebody.
more accurately "as opposed to ironically zipgunning somebody"
where ironically doing it means you "had access to real guns but decided to make/use a zip gun anyway for the lulz" or something
Leave it to the Japanese to have the balls to be pioneers in these matters.
>possibly with an electric ignition
cyberpunk timeline gets a chance
>cyberpunk timeline gets a chance
given that it was a Japanese PM it really feels like we're suddenly in Ghost in the Shell.
damn, doesn't get more ghetto than that
that's some favela shit
I wonder if he tested it or if this is the first time it's been used.
Probably somewhere in their depopulated countryside
Probably tested it on some hobos and got an award from a Japanese govt office.
I watched a video of Yoshitomo Imura making the revolver on the top far right before he got arrested. It ended with him firing blank cartridges outdoors. It's likely.
Quality Japanese nig rig.
shouldve put a folding stock on it, just sayin
that's bloat
it worked
>be so incompetent as to let a former head of state get shot
>from less that a dozen feet awat
>in a country with some of the harshest firearm regulation in the world
I can only imagine the shitstorm these bodyguards are gonna face.
>in a country with some of the harshest firearm regulation in the world
I think due to this fact they weren't expecting this.
Here's the current official update
>「意識なく、かなり生命が危ないとの情報が入ってきている」
Unconscious, but life isn't in danger.
woah seriously? He probably has a clone on standby to harvest organs from

No. It says that his life is in danger.
opps you're right, かなり threw me off

pretty sure it means life's in danger

I'm reading "the pleasure of being cummed inside".
I was wondering why it was taking so long to confirm. JFK took only half an hour to be declared dead (getting shot in the head is different to some jank gun to the back, but still).
Japan is a very well run place so they have no experience dealing with emergencies.
Complacency is the enemy I guess.
I wonder why this doesn't happen more often, this dude can't be the only schizo who can slap a bunch of pipes on a 2x4.
JFK was confirmed quickly because his head fricking exploded in front of a crowd of people.
his assassination was so brutal. RIP
Take down after the shooting. Bonus points for the qt female guard.
Whoops fricked that up.
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
Yeah.
Die screaming
Thanks, just made my summer morning even better.
Maybe they're too focused on being salary men to do anything else.
It only takes a fricking NEET to arson a building.
Heheh
