Animation YouTube channel Nux Taku (or Nuxanor) took to one of his YouTube channels earlier today (August 30) to reveal a rather concerning situation involving fellow animation YouTube channel Jaiden Animations (13 million subscribers) and her fans. According to Nux, he has been getting threatening messages from Jaiden's fans.
These threats were apparently due to his social relationship with Jaiden. Both have collaborated in the past and recently, Nux even reacted to one of her videos on his channel. This has been perceived as being "parasocial" among Jaiden's fans.
Speaking about the threatening messages, Nux Taku said this:
"People think I have this unhealthy parasocial relationship with Jaiden Animations to the point that apparently the police were called that I am a stalker. Yeah, because I reacted to her videos. This is how crazy it's gotten."
He added, stating that he has been receiving "death threats" from Jaiden Animations' fans.
"I've been getting death threats. I've been getting these weird messages and emails, talking about how they want to dox me to protect Jaiden Animations. It has been getting a little wild."

Nux Taku shows comments targeted at him by Jaiden Animations' fanbase
Nux Taku, a well-known YouTuber in the anime community, has disclosed that he received threatening messages from fans of fellow YouTuber Jaiden Animations. He also shared some of the troll-like comments left on one of his videos titled Goodbye. Jaiden and I had a great 10 years on YouTube.
Reacting to one of the comments, Nux said:
"'She ain't gonna let you hit lil bro,' which I think is more disrespectful to Jaiden than me because I have never made any inappropriate comments like that in my videos, by the way."
He further said:
"These actual TikTok children are going crazy out here. The toddlers, the f**king Teen Titans Go fans, coming out of the woodwork. Maybe not technically 'cancel' cancelling me, but they are trying."
Here's a screenshot of the said comments:
Jaiden Animations has yet to respond to this controversy. Recently, she gained widespread attention from the mainstream audience after participating in one of MrBeast's videos, where she won an impressive $1 million in prize money.
