AdvertisementMinamino grew up in Osaka, but moved to Tokyo to work in the music industry and for game company NitroPlus.
While at NitroPlus, Minamino created music for many of the game label's acts, such as virtual idol Super Sonico and oversaw Georide, NitroPlus' music label.
I thought I would be sentenced to death if I killed someone," Isohi told authorities.
NitroPlus issued a statement confirming that the Shingo Minamino who was savagely murdered was the same Shingo Minamino who worked with the Tokyo game company, adding, "We hope that he rests in peace, and we offer our deepest condolences to his family."
