Twitch Streamer Emiru Reveals She’d Been a Target of Grooming at Age 17

In a recent episode of the Noodleshop podcast, popular Twitch broadcaster and cosplayer Emily Schunk better known as Emiru, revealed that she received bizarre messages from “renowned Twitch streamers” while she was underage.

One of the content creators, Emiru, of One True King (OTK) revealed that big Twitch streamers sent her “creepy” messages that included remarks about grooming and other topics.

The OTK trio, Rich Campbell, Tectone, and Emiru, were discussing how the Twitch community has developed over time to become more inclusive to people of diverse ethnicities, genders, and the like during Noodleshop Podcast.

Emiru swiftly interjected and said, “There’s some [expletive] that happened to me that would not [expletive] fly now at all like people would be [expletive] canceled if it happened now.”

She claimed that she began streaming on Twitch when she was in high school, at the age of roughly 17, and that several male streamers who discovered her were significantly older than her would joke about grooming her.

The American streamer was upset since, at the time, no one seemed to mind when some of the notable streamers on the platform made jokes about manipulating actions.

She continued by saying that when she brought it up to others, they would make fun of her, and she would face backlash.

The cosplayer added, “People would call me a [expletive] and be like ‘Oh you’re a clout chaser,’ even though I never contacted them and never hung out with them when they asked me to.. and they knew that I was in high school.”

She didn’t name any of the alleged Twitch streamers, but Campbell and Tectone concur that her story was “terrible,” and they both expressed optimism that the site would keep improving so that incidents like this wouldn’t occur again.

This is not the first time Emiru has spoken about her concerns about stalking. She started her Twitch live on July 28, 2022, with some great news to share. She paced restlessly for the first hour of the stream before taking a big breath and letting it all out.

The Twitch streamer remarked that the man who had been stalking her and essentially forced her to leave her native Kansas had been placed in an institution. He resides in a long-term mental health facility.

In an embarrassing attempt to lighten the situation, she gave two thumbs up. Despite the fact that the specifics of what happened are still unknown to the public, it is no secret that Emiru struggled as a result of the stalker’s actions.

Emiru got some much-needed closure on the situation as a result of the stalker obtaining treatment at a mental health facility and remarked, “I feel more like my old self again.”

Ben Potter, known as YouTube star Comicstorian, has sadly passed away. 

His wife, Nathalie, confirmed the news of his death at the age of 40 as she wrote on X (formerly known as Twitter). Her message read, “Two days ago, on June 8th, my husband, Ben Potter, passed away in an unfortunate accident.”

“To many of you, he was Comicstorian, voicing stories from across multiple different mediums. To his loved ones, he was one of the best and most supportive individuals anyone could ask for. As a husband, a son, a brother, a friend, or even just a stranger, Ben was loving and genuine. He was someone who would listen and make time for his loved ones. He would do his best to make everyone laugh and make sure they were okay. He was our rock and he’d reassure his loved ones whenever they needed it.”

She further added, “He was my world and I need time to be with friends and family. I have so many things I need to figure out but firstly, I need to grieve. I ask that you respect my privacy as well as everyone else’s. Right now my priority is preserving everything he’s built and I don’t have any plans beyond that.”

On YouTube, Potter mostly created audio dramas of comic books on his Comicstorian account, regularly discussing the Marvel and DC Universes. He shared his last upload, titled “Why DC’s Reboots Beat Marvel,” just a day before his death.
