I found the original image used for the skyline. http://ram.viswanathan.in/2006/07/tokyo-travel-notes-4.html It was taken from the tokyo tower.

Oooh, this looks interesting. I didn't get an invitation, but I feel as if I might have to crash the party Wink I know a small chunk about Japan and "watashi-wa nihongo-ga sukoshi wakari-masu" (I understand a little Japanese). Hope I can be of service Smile

Has anyone emailed him with the tokyo tower response yet?

Here is the original of the cloud image, taken on the east side of the city.

All roads lead to Tokyo.

I got a reply

Me: I noticed that the view of tokyo is taken from the tokyo tower is that where you are?

MR: No, that video is a general overview of where I am. Yes, Japan, but I'm not revealing any specifics yet.


Has anyone asked him any questions about his background and the people he has killed? While it is fun to try and find him there seems to be a lot missing from the story at this point.

I haven't gotten a reply email from him yet, but I'm in. I've emailed him asking him who the people he killed were and why he killed them. Did somebody mention that we know his name?

He said we can call him Arman, although i don't think that is his real name.

Hello all, I crashed in as well, seemed like the start of something interesting.

Anyway, looks like a few of us got different emails, all "red" related. Sorry if it's been posted:




It came in at 1:30, but i've been out all day.

I'm surprised it's really Japan; with all this "red" stuff I was thinking China.

The word for red in japanese is "aka". Thanks to GoogleMaps, I discovered a tiny island in Japan also by this name in the Okinawa region. Not sure if this is correct, since the pictures of Japan he gave were city shots.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e4nWEJDcmcc&source=GEOSEARCH <-- a youtube link to some shots of Aka island.

Worth a shot?

That's really interesting. Maybe "aka" is the main location in all of this. Perhaps it will end up fitting in somehow.

New Video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7-xgLg2pUVI

Called 'Look Look Look', tags are arts crafts beauty dance drink finance fitness fashion food gardening health home music sports technology animation anim for those watching tags.

I'm trying to figure out what I'm seeing in the reflection, as well as what i see in the final clip there.

And, he replied to my previous email. I asked if he could see the Rainbow Bridge or the Tokyo Tower, he replies:

Ah, ah, look at my new videos. Try again.

I think we may have to piece together the pictures in between when he's walking the streets.

I asked him who the people he killed were and why he killed them:

Quote:
It varies. A perfect murderer knows to not follow a pattern. My most recent was my guests for Christmas. Around 20-30 people, all dead!


That verifies what was already obvious, that he killed all the people in that merry Christmas video.

Also, looking at reflections in the Look video is tough. Maybe a man in a white shirt, but that's a stretch.

Yeah, I tried it out. I did it on MS Paint, and the pictures don't add up square by square (You have to move them around a bit to find the right match), which added to this being pretty choppy. Also, I couldn't really find a place for the last two strips of grass, so if the bottom looks a bit weird, that's why. But, you'll get the gist.
