Is That A Man With A Sword?

Elliegato is a Twitch streamer who is Australian but lives in Japan. She often streams IRL or In Real Life content about her daily life in Japan. Recently, she was live streaming IRL together with her friend during Halloween and they were in costume. They were obviously disturbed when they were followed by a man wearing red clothes carrying a sword in his hands!

Ellie was just out for an evening stroll with her friend when suddenly, things started getting a tad hectic. People started asking for selfies with her. Then a man carrying a sword walked over to them. As seen in the video, the Twitch streamer and her friend are completely bothered by the stranger and ask; “Why is this guy following us? Why is he following us”? The man keeps on smiling while walking together with them. When the girls run, trying to shake off the weird stranger, the stranger also runs to catch up with them.

They decided to go a different way, but the man changed direction too, still holding up his sword, and everytime they made a u-turn, the man still followed, making the girls completely uncomfortable. She then told her friend; “Let’s go find your husband”, hoping that it would get the stranger away from following them. The stranger was consistent, following them even when they ran, with Ellie saying during the stream; “He’s like fully running and following us”. Several other men spoke to them and touched them inappropriately, making viewers feel even more anxious on the girls’ behalf.
