I think the problem is deeper than that!
I don't approve what the wife did, i don't approve what the husband did too.
First i think that when you are married you think not as an individual but as a family.
That dude just can't cut his wife from the money bank account, when you are a married couple everything is shared (of course not everything ) but as a matter of fact that he decided to keep all the money and do what he wants with it when he is supposed to be the head of the family(in japanese culture) i think he is an asshole.
I am ok with having a hobby,,but what is the purpose of having one and cutting your other half of the family plus he is a father of an 11 years old which means he is in charge of 2 person at home.
At some points you can't handle a hobby if that means cutting your family?!
About the wife now, she tried to stop the chore to make him understand the problem and he didn't listened so she decided to make a last call of her problem.
The thing is that this woman problem is not really the hobby in itself but her husband acting.
She tried to ask for help, means she really wanted to get help to arrange this situation.
Her action was just a desperate call for help, even if it wasn't a great idea to do it, i think she just wanted to caught his attention but that result to his husband to close himself even more.
I think that actually this woman wasn't heard to begin with, she tried but nothing worked and she thought that the only way to touch him and makes herself existing in this situation was to do what she did.
The immaturity of the husband is to be blame in this matter, first because of his selfishness and because it seems he do love his collection for than his wife.
If it was me i would have kick my husband in the balls to make myself heard instead of destroying his stuff.
Plus this poor woman don't wanna divorce actually so the overreaction is from the husband.
in the end both act were wrong, they both have an inner problem they should do counseling and spit out everything they have on their mind and state some limit,solution etc…
That is so sad how this story is said too, because the anime stuff wasn't even the trigger of the problem (all started with bottles).
Sad story and unnecessary dramas added when they should have talked but i don't think japanese are good at talking...
