My problem with Elvis The Alien

Elvis the Alien’s second video revives the “Asian Onision” label; Daniel objects, emphasizing he is half-white and dislikes the comparison. He distinguishes his video-diary format from Onision’s skits, rationalizes manipulation as universal, yet asks whether he can change direction before becoming similar. Despite resentment, he thanks Elvis for thousands of subscribers and nearing 100,000, then launches “Walking with Daniel” around Osaka’s river.

Controversy again produces audience growth while Daniel publicly defends himself and questions his trajectory.
