PREFACESo I wrote this in the Netoge no Yome Ep. 3 thread, but I thought I might post it as a self-post for the people who aren't interested in that series, but may come across it in future comedy anime in the future.In the latest episode, we see a fairly dramatic scene where one character (a girl), tries to attack another girl, and the guy (often the MC) getting in the way. She screams, "Get out of the way (Insert name), I can't kill her!" and it's a scene that sometimes appear in series like:HaganaiNyarukoDog & ScissorsNetoge no YomeA lot of people may not know that it's actually based off of something else. Here's some trivia that some people may not have caught during this episode (or any other), and may want to know. The entire sequence is referring to a very popular made-up story from back in the early 2000s, called the "S-Ken Tsukimiya" incident.CHARACTERS"374" - Male, adult, college student. Not very interested in 2D."S-Ken Tsukimiya" - Female, teenager. Forcing a fake sibling relationship with 374, with her calling him "onii-chan" and proclaiming herself as his little sister. "S-Ken" refers to a place, near where the incident took place."Ako" - Female, underaged, but likes to drink. Apparently somewhat good-looking.THE INCIDENTThis incident all started on August 5, 2002 when S-Ken Tsukimiya (which I'll abbreviate as SKT) asked 374 to go with her to Comiket on the 11th, which 374 rejected. Aside from the fact that he was not interested, he had already plans to meet Ako in person on that specific day. SKT questions 374 asking, "What, you can't grant your little sister's wishes?" When 374 says to no this, SKT tells him that she will come pick him up on that day, after telling him his address correctly.374 now asks Ako for help. When Ako approaches SKT, she starts to talk back to her, saying stuff like:"Onii-chan and I were destined to be together from our past lives.""We're also destined to be separated by a witch.""I promised to meet him once before I'm killed by the witch.""You are the witch's servant."374 and Ako give up and walk away (digitally) from SKT, after which she pleads to 374:"Onii-chan, where are you going!?She's a witch!Don't go to someone like her!"If it wasn't bad enough already, things turn for the worse. August 10, 2002 - 374 receives a text from SKT saying that she will come at midnight to pick him up. After promptly declining, he alerts the police. At this time, he receives another text saying that she will come "ASAP."Midnight arrives, and SKT arrives to 374's house. She yells out "374! I'm here!" but does not receive a response, as he is standing by outside his home. SKT begins to panic about 374's safety, asking desperately if the witch has gotten a hold of him. She takes out a police baton from her purse, and beats down the door. 374 calls the police, and then proceeds to try and stop her. He's met with a hard hit to the thighs, but manages to calm SKT down after asking her what she is doing at his house.She is handed over to the police, but no one can really understand what she's saying, since all she says are things like:"I didn't know my onii-chan would be outside when his little sister was coming.""I thought the witch got a hold of him.""I just wanted to save him."They tried to find out her identity and her personal information (such as age, etc.), but since there were no detectives available at such late hours on such short notice, they couldn't respond well to statements such as:"Onii-chan needs me.""Onii-chan is sought after by the witch, and she might kill him.""He promised me that we would run away together and find the savior."374 manages to get her home address from her by playing her game, telling her that "the witch's black magic had put a spell on where you used to live." However, this later led to SKT to make a fuss when her parents arrived, screaming how she "didn't want to go back to a house that is cursed," and that "onii-chan was going to be caught by the witch."THE INCIDENT, PART IIHowever, that was not the end of the incident. Only 10 hours later, 374 receives a phone call from SKT's mother. It consisted of an apology and a statement that SKT had run away from her house. Feeling immense fear, 374 leaves his house, narrowly missing SKT who arrived moments later.SKT, though, does not break down his door like last time. Instead, she begins screaming for 374, after which she was driven away from neighbors that lived around the house.Meanwhile, 374 is killing whatever time he has until his off-line, in-person meet up with Ako at a local Mister Donuts. Little does he know, SKT had already spotted him at the fast food joint. She tries to catch up, but the lack of exercise in her daily routine tires her out easily and she ends up stalking 374 as he walks to Ako.374 successfully meets up with Ako and they enter an izakaya (a Japanese pub, bar, tavern). An obviously underaged-looking SKT is forced to wait outside, as 374 and Ako enjoy almost 2 hours of drinking.August 11, 2002, 6:00 PM - 374 and Ako leave the izakaya, and walk down an empty street. As they are walking and chatting, Ako suddenly groans and falls down to the ground. Thinking she had drunk too much, 374 quickly turns around to ask her if she all right, only to find SKT with a police baton in her right hand standing before him. "Are you okay, onii-chan?" she asks. Without waiting for a response, she begins to ask 374:"Onii-chan, that's the witch, isn't she?Because you were calling her with the witch's name."Ignoring SKT, 374 tends to Ako and asks if she could move. Seeing that, SKT freaks out. "I'm going to kill her," she says, and proceeds to swing down with the police baton. 374 manages to block her attack with his bag, after which SKT screams:"GET OUT OF THE WAY, ONII-CHAN! I CAN'T KILL HER!!"374 was frozen with fear, not knowing what to do, but the situation took an unexpected turn when Ako suddenly got up and clotheslined SKT, knocking her to the ground. The hit caused some injury to her own arm, and she she again went down to the ground. 374 gathered himself, called the police, and held SKT down, while she screamed, "I'm going to be killed by the witch! Onii-chan, help me!"And so, the incident came to a close when SKT was, again, handed over to the police. SKT disappeared from RO, and so did 374, after claiming that she was now receiving counseling.ENDAgain, this story is claimed to be fake, and rightly so. It's kinda too crazy to be true, but keep in mind this was at a time when the Internet users began it's explosion in Japan, and people started to take part in these online games. It gathered a whole lot of popularity, and is now used as a fun little easter egg in comedy series.It was even made into a song, which I believe can be heard here.More information here, but I'm not going to translate that. It's too long as it is, and who knows how many people even made it this far down. http://ift.tt/1SwrhFd
