I very much appreciate your help Bayucca, thanks!
yes, I know for sure its Acrididae. the body looks a lot like the body of Oxya japonica, but not the legs... but to me it doesn't look the same as Oxya sp either: the body of Oxya sp is way less robust, and the hindlegs are not the right color.
Methiolopsis geniculata looks different:

Definitely an Acrididae. Reminds me somehow of Oxya sp., but not Oxya japonica.
