The Japanese news is reporting that it was a leg bone that was found, god knows what happened to the flesh.

I just can't imagine the perp being someone she knew...she was just an average student who lived in a dorm and worked at an icecream shop, for crying out loud...

Wild pigs!
- This has the jilted lover scenario all over it. She wouldn't play ball, so he belted her, strangled her, cut her up and fed her to the pigs. Do the cops have a suspect yet? ;)

She might not have been the first, and if the police don't track down the perp soon, she might not be the last either.

How can anybody do such a horrible thing like, cutting this poor girl's head off, then her hands and feet?? This is just so sickening! I hope they catch her murderers as soon as possible! RIP poor university girl.

This is turning into "Body part of the day" Pretty soon the puzzle can be solved...

Oh my god, this gets more sickening every time something new comes out. Now it wasn't just her head chopped off (as if that wasn't bad enough,) but she was completely mutilated, hopefully after death. I feel desperately sorry for her parents, having to come to terms with such atrocities, but I hope most sincerely that she didn't have time to suffer.

I too wonder about Ichihashi. Was she carrying money by any chance? If not, probably someone else. What about that creep who cannibalised a European girl and became a J-tv tarento? Can he account for his whereabouts? (If he's still alive that is.) But I hope she wasn't cannibalised, because that'd just be another nail in the coffin of her parents' misery and suffering. How can they live with such terrible knowledge?

$20 bucks this is a crime of passion involving someone she meet through work. Some guy who is upset he doesn't have girlfriend. They decide to take their frustrations out on her; the classic manga book style is the man just rapes a woman and she starts to get turned on by it. Unfortunately, that is almost never true then they realize they have to silence her. Now they've killed the woman, next they have make sure no one finds her, so they must get rid of the body. It is too diffiuclt to move a whole body so they chop her up. Now they have to dispose of her and the choose the farthest place possible without looking suspicious for being out there. This whole situation is bad! It also says alot about abuse towards women/girls in this country where the majority of perpetrators are lonely men. I hope they catch the person or persons then fry their a@#!

Probably a customer or someone who has seen her going home from work in the evenings. Check the neighborhood.

Enough with the body parts already! Let us know when they've found some other kind of evidence or lead. Thanks.

Rip lady, hope they catch this scum.

Body parts are evidence. Some of the best forensic evidence leading to the arrest of the killer are found on the body of victims.

I can't even begin to speculate what the motive behind this kind of violence could be, but I would love nothing more than a few private moments in a locked room with the savage who did this. Me, him, and an 18" length of steel pipe.

Yeah, yeah, I know. Violence begets violence and it won't bring her back. But it sure will help me come to better grips with such an unconscionable crime.

The news did report that some animals had partaken, as it were. Hope they get the person or people who did this.

a stalker, love affir gone wrong, a fellow jealous student, a hateful teacher, or maybe something much more......

Very sad to hear, I feared she would turn up dead. Obviously the victim of a psycho. Why is it no one here ever just kills someone, they always have to chop up the body.

Last night's news reported that there are three males traveling together in the area who are subjects of interest; Two in their 30s and one in his 20s. I'm not sure why the police have reason to believe they were involved, but they're actively searching for them.
