The story
It has come to light that Reiji (29), the eldest son of former Hikaru Genji member Mikio Osawa (57), is once again demanding a DNA test from his father to confirm the truth about his birth — an issue reported on 13 and a half years ago as a “0% probability of paternity.” In a 2015 court ruling, the absence of a parent-child relationship was recognized based on Article 772, Paragraph 2 of the Civil Code and DNA test results, but Reiji claims that “the document I secretly saw when I was 16 said the paternity probability was 99.9%,” creating a discrepancy. On 5ch, comments sparked debate, with people saying things like “That’s weak grounds to overturn a court ruling” and “He should just ask his mother directly.”
“Legally, we’re not recognized as father and son, but people still tell me everywhere I go that I look like my dad. I got married four years ago, so I have a wife now, and I’ll turn 30 next January. I’ve been jerked around by my relationship with my parents this whole time, and even now, the fallout from the old scandal often makes it hard for me to be at work.
The reason I’ve come to talk about where things stand now — even if it means cutting ties with my family — is that I wanted to clearly state my feelings toward my parents in my own words.”
So says Reiji (29), eldest son of Mikio Osawa (57), former member of Hikaru Genji.

What people said
Exactly. If he really wants to know who his real father is, that's the only way.
"Even I don't know!"
They're not naming him, but he kind of looks like one of the other Hikaru Genji members…
Yeah, he does kind of give off that vibe.
There's no way they could've faked that.
Since the whole case hinged on the parent-child relationship, they must have done their own testing.
No court would hand down a ruling just taking an outside test result at face value.
Right.
The court's judgment is more reliable than either side's claims, so if he wants to overturn it now, the only way is to file his own lawsuit.
The fact that he's whining to the media instead of doing that makes his story hard to trust too.
Re: #23
Don't just say "apparently" — show me real numbers.
Apparently among the urban poor it's as high as 6% of kids — that's some modern-day darkness right there.
Wasn't she a celebrity?
If they were still getting along this well back then, I figure he could just take another DNA test.
That would probably satisfy the son too.
But apparently there was domestic violence,
so who knows if they were really "getting along"…
Maybe the kid was just putting up with it this whole time.
And sending it off overseas for testing sounds sketchy too.
> In November 2015, Osawa's claim was accepted, with Article 772, Paragraph 2 of the Civil Code and the DNA test results being the deciding factors.
Both sides had lawyers and went through an actual trial to get that result…
Seems pretty weak to overturn it with just "actually, I secretly looked at some documents when I was 16."
Maybe his mind broke somewhere along the way and rewrote the facts in his head.
If the compulsive-lying thing is true too, then it's all exactly as Osawa says.
It's all just speculation in the end, but it's sad.
Way too weak.
The mother won't even agree to meet him — that pretty much confirms it was paternity fraud.
She's the one responsible here lol
Shouldn't he be "Ichiro" (a name that literally means "first son")?
It's "the one that comes after zero," so that makes him number one, see.
Can't reach her.
did the judge misread the test results or something?
Osawa's already living a life apart from yours,
so seriously, just let it go.
There was that ruling not long ago ordering a woman who abandoned three kids from paternity fraud to pay damages.
Feels like that's what's dredging up old cases like this one.
But yeah, seriously, someone should tell him to let it go.
Better than going bald 😠
Wait, huh?
So Osawa really was the father?
Then Mai Kitajima isn't the villain here?
If that were true, there's no way Kitajima's side would've stayed quiet.
but it seems like we won't hear it until she's on her deathbed.
Everyone already knows, lol. Don't complain if you're not interested.
The son and the guy who's rumored to be the father look way too alike — it was obvious.
It says something completely different from what I thought I knew…
If the son is right… then Osawa is the liar.
If Osawa is right… then the son is the liar.
Seriously… what is even going on…
However you slice it, the son's the liar here…
The court already ruled that no parent-child relationship exists.
