この山野氏というライターの文章は、非常に興味深い。わざわざ、りりちゃんこと渡辺真衣容疑者の情報商材を購入し、詳細に分析している。私だったら、こんなくだらない犯罪者の女の書いたものなど、購入してまで読む気にはなれない。ライターさんの根性には脱帽である。

さて、上記のWEB記事を読んで初めて気づいたことだが、実は渡辺容疑者は「詐欺」では逮捕されていない。彼女が直接だました男性から被害届は出ていないようだ。彼女の罪状は「詐欺ほう助」である。つまり、彼女が頒布した情報商材（いただき女子マニュアル）が犯罪のほう助となり、彼女は逮捕された。犯罪者ながら、彼女のすごいところは、心理操作術にある。だました男性から被害届を出されないように、巧妙に「嫌われない努力」をしていたと考えられる。まあ、相手を怒らせないためにある程度は身体をはったのであろう。私はこの女は全くタイプではない。教養のかけらもないような女である。だが、中高年男性でエロい人は、「若くて多少かわいければ誰でもいい」のかもしれない。

この事件を通して、感じたことは、りりちゃんに心を奪われて大金を渡していた中高年男性、りりちゃん、りりちゃんのマニュアルを使って男性をだました女たち、全員の心が「病んでいる」ことだ。りりちゃんは、ホストクラブのホストに大金を貢いで、その金を稼ぐために「いただき女子」活動をしていた。りりちゃんに金を渡していた中高年男性も、寂しさを紛らわすためにりりちゃんにはまったのであろう。男性も女性も、大金を払ってしまうほどに病的に「寂しい」「心の空白がある」状態なのである。私も、まあ、人のことは言えない。もう、妻とは何年も関係がないし、妻以外の女性を魅力的に感じることもある。だが、私はそんなことよりも、腐った日本社会の改革と、自分のスペックを上げることのほうが興味が強いので、くだらん火遊びをするつもりはない。

また、大金を渡していた中高年男性は、おそらく高学歴であろう。MARCH関関同立や国公立大学くらいは卒業しているだろう。そうでないと、そんなにお金を持っていないだろう。自分自身もそうだからわかるが、高学歴層は貴重な青春時代を犠牲にして受験勉強をしているので、そのことにコンプレックスがある。なので、女子高生～女子大生くらいの若い女性に弱い人が多いのだ。いわば、失われた青春を「買ってでも取り戻したい」のであろう。（私は、30代くらいで知的な女性のほうが好きだが）

いずれにせよ、りりちゃんも、被害者も、りりちゃんのマニュアルを使った人も、少し冷静になるべきであった。異性に溺れるのは心理的な逃避でしかない。エーリッヒ・フロムの著書に「自由からの逃走」というものがあるが、心理的にはその状態に陥っていたと思う。フロムが言うのは、ヒトラーのような権威を持った人物に大衆がひれ伏したことなので、社会現象の規模としては違っているが、彼ら彼女らの病的な心理状況は似たようなものであろう。

1990年代には、オウム真理教が問題になった。あの頃から、日本は変わっていない。いや、むしろ、深刻化しているのかもしれない。高橋まつりさんは、電通という一流企業（の皮をかぶったブラック企業）に過剰適応し、「会社から逃げる」選択肢をとらず、命を失ってしまった。彼女も、人の命をなんとも思わないクソ企業など捨てて、逃げるべきだった。

とにかく、日本国民全員が、今の自分の心理状況が病的ではないのか、今、自分が何をやっているのか、少し冷静に考えたほうがいい。犯罪は論外だし、命より大事な仕事など自衛隊や警察官くらいしかないだろう。

Ririchan and the Pathology of Contemporary Japan

Introduction:

The "Ririchan" incident, involving Ms. Watanabe Mai and her "Itadaki Joshi" persona, has captivated contemporary Japan. This essay delves beyond the surface details of the case, exploring the psychological and societal factors that contribute to such phenomena.

Ririchan and the "Aiding and Abetting Fraud" Charge:

While Ms. Watanabe was not charged with direct fraud, her offense was categorized as "aiding and abetting fraud." This distinction highlights her role in enabling others to commit fraud, rather than directly deceiving them.

Psychological Manipulation and the Allure of Youth:

Ms. Watanabe's ability to manipulate her targets, avoiding direct complaints by exploiting their loneliness and susceptibility to charm, raises questions about human desire and vulnerability.

Disturbed Commonalities and Escapism:

A common thread emerges among Ms. Watanabe, the deceived men, and those who misused her manual: a shared state of "disturbance" and escapism fueled by loneliness and emptiness. This points to underlying societal issues that need to be addressed.

Personal Reflection and Societal Critique:

The author's personal struggles with marital connection and the allure of external fulfillment add a relatable dimension to the critique, highlighting the broader societal context.

Fromm's Escape from Freedom and Societal Stagnation:

The reference to Erich Fromm's "Escape from Freedom" connects individual experiences to broader societal trends and psychological concepts, emphasizing the need for individual empowerment.

A Call for Collective Introspection:

The essay concludes with a powerful call for self-reflection and understanding the consequences of our actions, advocating for a healthier society.

Areas for Further Discussion:

• Nuances of the "Itadaki Joshi" phenomenon: Exploring the motivations and experiences of women involved could provide additional insights.

• Cultural factors in Japan: Considering the role of societal pressures, work culture, and gender norms in shaping these behaviors could enrich the analysis.

• Potential solutions and paths forward: Suggesting concrete steps or resources for individual and societal improvement could strengthen the conclusion.

Conclusion:

The "Ririchan" incident serves as a microcosm of Japan's contemporary social ills. By examining this case in depth, we can gain a better understanding of the psychological and societal factors that contribute to such phenomena and work towards creating a healthier society.

Title: Reflections on the "Ririchan" Incident: A Deeper Look into Societal Anomalies

In the realm of contemporary writers, the works of Mr. Yamano present a captivating exploration, notably delving into the intricacies surrounding the enigmatic figure known as "Ririchan," or Ms. Watanabe Mai, a suspect in an unusual case. Mr. Yamano's deliberate examination of her information products reveals a meticulous analysis that goes beyond mere scrutiny.

Upon reading the aforementioned web article, a startling realization emerged—Ms. Watanabe, while facing charges related to her activities, was not arrested for "fraud" per se. There were no direct victim complaints from the men she allegedly deceived. Instead, her offense was categorized as "aiding and abetting fraud." In essence, the information products she distributed, notably the "Itadaki Joshi Manual," became instruments in criminal activities, leading to her apprehension. Despite her criminality, Ms. Watanabe's remarkable aspect lies in her mastery of psychological manipulation. To avoid triggering complaints from her deceived male counterparts, she adeptly engaged in efforts not to be disliked, perhaps resorting to a certain degree of charm. Personally, I find this woman entirely unappealing, lacking any semblance of refinement. However, for middle-aged and elderly men with certain proclivities, the allure of youth and superficial charm might override discernment.

Through this incident, a disturbing commonality emerges—both the men who willingly parted with substantial sums for Ririchan's affections and Ririchan herself, along with those who utilized her manual for deceptive purposes, share a deeply "disturbed" state of mind. Ririchan contributed to this distorted reality by lavishing funds on hosts from a host club and engaging in activities under the guise of "Itadaki Joshi." The middle-aged men who willingly gave her money likely succumbed to loneliness, seeking solace in the fleeting connection with Ririchan. This excessive reliance on material wealth reveals a pathological sense of emptiness in both men and women involved in these transactions.

I, too, acknowledge the complexities of human relationships. It's been years since I've had any meaningful connection with my wife, and there are moments when I find other women appealing. Yet, my focus remains on the reform of a decaying Japanese society and enhancing my personal capabilities, steering clear of frivolous indulgences.

Regardless, all parties involved—Ririchan, the victims, and those who exploited her manual—could have benefitted from a moment of introspection. Drowning in romantic pursuits is a psychological escape, as Erich Fromm postulates in his work "Escape from Freedom." While the scale of societal phenomena differs, the shared pathological psychological conditions of these individuals resonate with Fromm's concepts.

Reflecting on the 1990s when Aum Shinrikyo was a prominent issue, it becomes apparent that Japan has not evolved, or perhaps has even deteriorated. The tragic case of Matsuri Takahashi, who succumbed to the pressures of a seemingly elite but toxic company like Dentsu, emphasizes the need for individuals to escape from such situations, prioritizing their well-being.

In conclusion, a collective introspection is essential for the entire Japanese population. Evaluating one's psychological well-being, understanding current actions, and contemplating the consequences of those actions can pave the way for a healthier society. Crime is unequivocally unacceptable, and there are few things more valuable than life itself, perhaps only equaled by essential professions like those in the self-defense forces or the police.
