Today, the Mark Is shopping center in Fukuoka became the scene of another horrific knife attack. A man stabbed both a woman and a man before fleeing the scene; he is currently at large.

Tragically, this is the second major violent crime to occur at this exact location. The first incident, in 2020, involved the fatal stabbing of a young woman in the restroom by a juvenile, a case that remains ongoing in the courts.

Is it just bad luck, or does this particular spot need more than just security〓perhaps an exorcist? The reality is sinking in: the chance of being assaulted while shopping casually in central Fukuoka might be starting to feel more terrifying than a solo hike in the remote Hokkaido mountains. Something is deeply wrong here.
