Did Mamoru Takuma leave digital footprints?

I'm wondering if he had any social media profiles anywhere on the internet, or if he used to post on anonymous textboards, you name it.

never heared of him

He was executed only three years after the crime.

Most people in Japan that got death sentence are going to be executed much longer than 3 years.

Strange, even Shoko Asahara and his cultists got executed not too long ago.

'social media' in the years 2000-2004 basically means this [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.] (especially in Japan, where they're still a thing among internauts) if there's any inkling of his thoughts that has survived through time, chances are that it can be found on a textboard, as you were suggesting

There might be something on 2channel (now 5channel). Which was launched in 1999, so he might have used that platform.

[You must be registered and logged in to see this link.] There was also a textboard founded in 1996 called "Ayashii warudo" or something similar. But the original site is long gone.

yup. That chan has always been something quite controversial, to say the least. [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]

When I was in high school in the late '90s/early 2000s, almost everyone I knew was on AOL and used AIM. The geekier folks were into IRC. Usenet/BBS was still around, but it wasn't as big as it had been a few years earlier.
