Overview
Daniel booked a guest house near the former apartment shared with his ex-wife Chihiro, repeatedly observed the apartment from a nearby park late into the night, followed a walking figure toward the building after the last train arrived, and saw the lights turn on.
After broadcasting the encounter on a livestream the following day, Daniel received a visit from Japanese police officers regarding allegations of stalking his ex-wife, which Daniel disputes.
Detectives escorted Daniel in an unmarked car to a police station, questioned him about waiting outside and following his ex-wife after she reported him, issued an official warning and an anti-stalking leaflet without arresting him, and required him to delete all contacts and remove recent livestreams discussing her.
Daniel became emotional and cried while writing on a police form, was driven back to his guest house, and reflected that the incident ruined his perception of Osaka and Japan, marking the definitive end of hopes to reconnect with Chihiro, later recounting the events on YouTube after departing Japan despite police instructions not to do so.
