== Controversies ==
=== Tobi Drama ===
Junkie had made a video with his editor PhantomHeart about the situation of the Tobi drama and the people who were involved. He heavily criticized users like JUST A ROBOT, Hopeless Peaches, Fuschia Butters, NezzieMonster, and Tobi. He had shown support towards Kai Weiss (also known as prince kai) and Omnia, also recommending one of the videos on the situation made by Prison Mate Luke. His video was fairly well received but was taken down because of complications between his mutuals.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P3TB2YQHzRw
=== MangaKamen ===
In Junkie's video and behind the scenes, PhantomHeart noticed that Hopeless Peaches was shown viewing the Google Doc of the script for the Tobi video JUST A ROBOT had made. She was there for word correction. Junkie had decided to show this to Omnia as they were mutuals before the drama without letting MangaKamen know, as he was the one to provide it. Omnia was upset over this and talked about this on her channel which led to come misconceptions to arise.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5kY9n8Q2DNQ
In a call between the four of them which was posted on the channel of LioConvoy's Reviews. MangaKamen told Junkie that the video idea was originally just for his channel before JUST A ROBOT and Fuschia Butters joined in and her part in the Doc was just checking grammar, even Peaches tried to discourage him from going through with the video. MangaKamen was very hurt by Junkie going behind his back, even crying in part of the call as he values his friendships and has dealt with past betrayal before. Junkie was very nonchalant through the call but they said they would provide corrections.
However, Junkie would end up blocking Kamen and claiming he was threatening to black mail him, which wasn't true.
=== JUST A ROBOT ===
JUST A ROBOT used to be friends with and collab with Junkie. Junkie had also blocked JAR, gaslighting him in private messages about his worries in the drama. He was very vocal about his disagreement of JUST A ROBOT's first Tobi video.
JUST A ROBOT had called him out in a couple of videos, which are the more popular videos talking about what had happened and what Junkie did.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dDB-5xaF59A
=== Hiten Mitsuru ===
Hiten and Junkie had known each other and chatted during the Spoctor Drama. Hiten had a problem with a user known as Fran for their poor takes on Spoctor and his false allegations. She had made a pretty passionate video about Fran which caused a lot of backlash for including private DMS between Junkie and Fran. 
Hiten had removed the video and most of their other commentaries, disappearing from the public eye. Years later, she opened up in a new video talking about how the DMs were actually given to her with permission by Junkie. Junkie had not opened up about this, lying about her to other people, and had turned on Hiten when she was getting all the hate from her former friends. Hiten had lost many mutuals online and struggled with more mental health issues after being isolated from the community she was a part of.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_uLVkB7xuAc
=== Mind Your Business (Only Jesp) ===
Only Jesp had collaborated with Junkie in a video against Kitthesoulless. Jesp had gotten in trouble because of her video about the Tobi Drama, defending Hopeless Peaches and bringing attention to a GoFundMe that was provided by PrisonMateLuke, which was seen as doxxing. 
Junkie tried talking her out of making the video that was intending to defending Peaches, blocked her, and stood his ground that Jesp had doxxed the GoFundMe even though it was public and shared by PrisonMateLuke.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m9ajv3mlVnk
