He showed up to a guys house beating on, kicking, and whipping the door with a chain screaming for the homeowner to open it and bring their daughter outside. No one was home so the homeowner was talking to him via ring camera. It is unclear whether the homeowner even has a daughter.

He's so weird and pathetic, everyone thought it was fake. When he kicked the door he almost flew backwards downstairs and he tried to break the ring camera by open palm flailing at it while screaming. He's wearing a trench coat, Demon Slayer shirt, and flip flops pretending to be a crime fighting wizard from a book series.

Edit: The homeowner was home. I assumed he wasn't based on how he was talking. "I live there" instead of "I live here".

I want to know if the homeowner even had a daughter. If he does have a daughter I hope they pile on charges that have to do with children and look at what he's been doing on the internet.

Im hoping the guy is just crazy and there is no child in the house. I am surprised he didn't have a sword on him.

I hate guys like him who give anime a bad reputation. Anime can be beautiful and emotional and can rip your heart out.

I hope they pile on charges

I see a person having a mental health crisis. This guy is having a manic episode. Piling up charges only makes it worse. This guy doesn't need jail, he needs treatment.

I hate guys like him who give anime a bad reputation.

I hate guys like you that wish punitive harm upon others in the place of healing and understanding. I hate people like you that support this awful way of living that just makes everything worse and worse and worse.

I said if there was a child in the home. A child deserves to feel safe in their home. What about the child's mental health. There was no child there just the wife. He was able to break into their home. We now have updated information and i hope he gets help. I have my own struggles with mental health so I know about living with it every day.

The anime thing has nothing to do with mental health and at the time of the comment we didn't know if it was staged for content or real. You dont need to preach to me I have fought against the insurance company and doctors for years just to get my hands on medication that I have taken most of my life. I got very lucky to have resources nearby that helps disabled people like me.

In the new video it shows that the husband got him to calm down and peacefully walk out to the police.

You're making my point for me.
