Inumaru Rin, the creator of Ojaru Maru, jumped off the roof of her 14 story apartment building on Sunday. The kicker to me — seriously, I laughed aloud — is that the 48-year-old author of children’s books and novels left a note saying “I’m not good at my job.” Hahaha, I mean really? HAHAHA! Good god. See, you just can’t read 2ch these days or you’ll end up getting your feelings hurt and jumping off of a roof. I know, I know, I’m terribly insensitive, but that’s a seriously funny reason to commit suicide for a 48-year-old. The NHK released a statement that basically amounts it “That’s weird. She was really good at her job.”
Still, it’s always a shame that people just feel like they have no where else to turn. Except who really cares.
