But where do you find the full experience? And why are these videos so addictive? Let’s dive in.

Here are a few possibilities regarding your request:

Prosecutors demanded a prison sentence of 22 months, arguing that Oya found "immense joy in tormenting the cats" . His defense team, however, asked for a suspended sentence, claiming he had already been punished enough by "social sanctions"—including losing his job and being ostracized by his community .

– If “Makoto Oya” is a private individual who uploaded personal cat videos to a platform (e.g., YouTube, NicoNico), those would not be publicly aggregated in a report unless they are officially published media. I cannot retrieve or summarize non-public or unverified personal content.

Despite his attempts at anonymity, Oya was undone by the very tool he used to share his crimes: the internet. An anonymous person, horrified by what they had witnessed, reported the videos to the police. This tip led investigators to trace the content back to Makoto Oya, allowing them to build a case that led to his arrest. The case became a significant international news story, with headlines such as "Man filmed himself killing 13 cats with blowtorch" and "Japanese prosecutors seek 22 months' jail for serial cat abuser" dominating media reports.
