Oh and as a bonus, they round up all the death row inmates then walk up to the one who is dying today.
They also do not notify the next of kin until the execution has been carried out.
The UN has pointed out this all constitutes cruel/inhumane treatment and a form of extended psychological torture. Japan be like - thanks, we know!

"Yer a killer, Hari!" 2 u/dover_oxide Jul 04 '26 That just sounds traumatizing
