He stated that he “couldn’t live life like in the anime” and made incoherent remarks referencing situations from the series. At one point, he even said he had given his family a bottled drink before the attack.

The police continue to investigate the real motive behind the case. Julius’s testimony, mixing strange references to One Piece, has raised even more questions about his mental state.

The tragedy shocked the Indonesian public, both for its brutality and the bizarre statements made by the suspect.
