Summary

He says their first one or two months were peaceful until Chihiro discovered his YouTube persona and extensive disclosures about her. He admits deliberately provoking arguments for 50K–100K-view drama, finding conflict rewarding and sacrificing privacy for audience growth. He acknowledges hurting Chihiro and alienating her family, yet blames YouTube’s algorithm and audience incentives for encouraging his behaviour.
