A Japanese cosplayer shocked the internet after reportedly cutting off her boyfriend’s ring finger and keeping it in the fridge.

The woman claimed she “loved him too much” and did not want him to marry anyone else or exchange wedding rings.

The incident came to light in January when police in Osaka, located in Japan’s Kansai region on Honshu Island, received an emergency call from the 21-year-old victim, whose name has not been disclosed.

He reported that his girlfriend, Saki Sato, 23, had assaulted him after an argument about breaking up and requested help.

When police arrived at the flat, they found both individuals, with the man showing visible injuries on his left cheek and nose.

He later told the police that his left ring finger had been cut off by Sato, and that the severed finger was soaking in alcohol in the refrigerator.
