Recently, there's been a lot of talk about the arrest of a woman who was involved in "sugar dating," or rather, a woman who was "given a sugar daddy."
Public reaction is varied, and there are many different opinions.
Airi
Sugar dating is really dangerous after all.
Airi
It's their own fault for doing something that led to their arrest; they brought it upon themselves.
This article uses the recent arrest of a woman often lumped together with "sugar babies" (women who engage in sugar dating) as a case and news report to illustrate what can happen in sugar dating, and to help women who engage in sugar dating understand the boundaries between what is acceptable and unacceptable.
Please reflect on the incident and use it as a lesson and a warning to yourself.
To understand what was wrong with the incidents being reported, we need to define some prerequisites.Clarifying where the line is drawn between crime and crime.Please check this first.
Riri-chan, the girl who got

Oseki
Let's start with the most famous person, this one.
"Around June 7th of last year, Watanabe allegedly sold a manual for 28,000 yen, knowing that a 20-year-old woman intended to swindle money from men. Furthermore, in February of this year, he is suspected of assisting in a fraudulent scheme in which he swindled a total of 1065 million yen from two men who had expressed affection for the woman through messaging apps such as LINE. Police are continuing their investigation, believing that Watanabe himself may have swindled money from multiple men using similar methods."
Watanabe, who was active on social media as "Riri-chan," sold a guide book titled "Riri-chan's Complete Magic Strategy Manual," which taught people how to engage in "sugar dating," and rose to become a charismatic figure representing the world of sugar babies. She was also synonymous with the popular term "successful girl," referring to a woman who gets men to give her money.

Uncle
This person was shocking.
Riri-chan, a 25-year-old woman, was arrested for defrauding older men on social media out of approximately 10 million yen in order to earn money to spend on her male host, and for selling a manual on how to do it.
charges
Fraud - She made several men develop romantic feelings for her and then defrauded them of approximately 155 million yen by claiming to be in dire straits.
Aiding and abetting fraud - She helped commit fraud by selling "Riri-chan's Complete Magic Strategy Manual," which was designed to deceive men.
Tax evasion — He allegedly evaded taxes on approximately 4000 million yen by failing to declare the income he obtained through fraud.
Riri's testimony in court
Aya
All I wanted was to make my host happy and think of me as a good girl.
Nagoya District Court ruling
Airi
Male psychologyA truly cunning crime, manipulating victims and taking advantage of their affection.Therefore, the motivation to contribute to the host's sales is selfish.
Airi
Some victims had to cancel their life insurance policies to raise money, and were defrauded of almost all of their assets, resulting in serious consequences.
Airi
They sell manuals and offer advice on how to sexually harass men.Actively encouraging similar crimes is also malicious.That's it. Her motive of wanting to contribute to the sales of the hosts she desired was truly selfish, there is no room for leniency, and her criminal responsibility is quite heavy.
final verdict
[Prison sentence]Nine years in prison and a fine of 8 million yen.
Oseki
Nine years since I was 25... I'll be in my mid-30s when I get out...💦
Public reaction to this ruling
Airi
I can't help but think that the 9-year prison sentence might have been due to the manual being too well-written (highly malicious and reproducible). >Riri-chan
Airi
The verdict is clear, but the man who fell for this and handed over tens of millions of yen is also unfortunate, and will likely suffer damage to his social standing.
Airi
I agree with the harsh sentence. What he did was the same as a greedy host; he exploited people who were poor by taking advantage of their good nature and using romance to deceive and exploit them, which is the very mindset of a villain. It's important to question not only the content but also the maliciousness of his actions. I think this girl is pretty rotten to the core.
Airi
I find it strange that they keep saying Riri's sentence is quite serious, implying she has a heavy criminal responsibility. Even her uncle gave her money willingly...? My husband also said that just tax evasion would be enough. I think it's odd that so many sex crimes receive much lighter sentences than this.
Airi
This is too harsh as a deterrent. If it's meant to be a deterrent, then the people who foolishly gave the money should also be punished in some way, otherwise the number of people who get scammed won't decrease. There are two guys who gave money to a bar hostess after she said, "My mother is in the hospital." Both of them are still complete idiots who don't realize it was a scam.
Airi
It's foolish to think that someone in their 50s can date someone in their 20s. It's the person who gets deceived who's at fault.
Those who feel sorry for Riri-chan (due to her upbringing, etc.)
Those who believe that the punishment for the most heinous criminals should be rather light.
Both sides are equally at fault.
I believe the fault lies with the older man who genuinely thinks he can date an older woman.
Those who take a harsh view of selling methods of committing crimes
Those who criticize the leniency of the sex crime sentence compared to Riri's sentence
This was frequently observed.
Lesson
- Do not lie to men to swindle them out of money.
- When sharing know-how that you believe can generate income, make sure it does not violate any laws.
- Understanding that the other person is a human being with the same emotions as you.

Let's try not to do things to others that we wouldn't want done to ourselves.
The incident caused by the "Itadaki Joshi" (Top Girl) believer, Dogo-chan
There was a woman who bought Riri-chan's manual, which was being sold for 28,000 yen, tried it, and was subsequently arrested.

Defendant's testimony in court
Airi
I was aiming to become a certified public accountant, and even though I was busy, I studied for 50 hours every week.
As a successful woman, I thought that raising money, investing it, and using it as capital for my future business was the shortest route to success.
In the end, it turned out to be a very roundabout process. I ended up paying more money than I was given.
Airi
However, I've realized a lot in the past six months or so.
There are three particularly great things about it.
One thing is, I wasn't alone.
Secondly, the subject should be "the other person" or "we," rather than "myself."
Third, men aren't all enemies.
Oseki
...It leaves me with an indescribable feeling.
judgment
These are the words of Judge Ryoko Tozaki of the Nagoya District Court.
Airi
The defendant's crimes were planned and sophisticated, as he either played two roles himself or hired accomplices to play roles that supported his lies. Furthermore, the maliciousness of repeatedly committing similar crimes cannot be overlooked, and the amount of damages is substantial, making his criminal responsibility heavy.
Airi
The fact that a settlement has been reached with the victim and that both parties have forgiven the crime must be taken into considerable consideration.
In other words, while the crime was premeditated and sophisticated, there is room to provide opportunities for rehabilitation within society.
[Verdict] Three years imprisonment, suspended for five years.
➤It appears that he was able to avoid a prison sentence by reaching a settlement with the victim.
Public reaction to this ruling
Airi
A female university student from Nagoya swindled 1000 million yen through fraud, and she only got a suspended sentence?! Is it okay as long as she settled out of court, you greedy Nagoya people?!
Airi
Four years in jail for 10 million yen... that's definitely a warning to others. Usually, about half of fraud cases result in suspended sentences.
Since the matter was settled out of court, there weren't many notable reviews or comments.
The internet is flooded with reviews about Riri-chan, and it seems that the public's attention is focused on her.
The manual that became a contributing factor to the crime
So, what kind of manual was actually sold?
Some of it has been made public on social media.
