This is a Yakuza tradition called Yubitsume where it is a way to be punished or to show sincere apology and remorse to another, by means of amputating portions of one's own little finger You can read more about it under here, and i thought this video would better sit in maiming than self harm since It is more akin to a "ritualistic maiming" than a self harm.
