SAPPORO — Police arrested an 80-year-old man in Sapporo on Friday on suspicion of killing his wife after an argument caused by his complaint that she had cooked "too many dishes" for him, police officials said.

Yoshifumi Aoki told the police that he killed his wife Setsuko, 73, in a fit of rage by strangling her with a towel in their kitchen Wednesday night, they said. The incident came to light as the suspect went to a local municipal office Thursday to consult with authorities about cremating her body, they said. (Kyodo News)

It's about challenging the status quo which is perfectly normal for a tired houswife, and the husband just couldn't take criticism.
Crime of passion is nothing unique to Japan. We just don't hear about these domestic violence happening elsewhere.
But to hear about it unawares is always shocking.
Let's talk about something else. This is getting depressing.
Unless of course there's something that needs to be addressed...
