Over 711 fans on the r/LivestreamFail subreddit commented on the clip in less than an hour, with several community members expressing concern.

"Yup. That’s a traumatizing moment if I’ve ever seen one. Dude was huge too." Reddit user borninsane wrote.
"Bruh, Emiru really can't catch a break. First the stalker in the fair, now this, that poor woman." Reddit user dazedan_confused stated.

"Jesus. Imagine if they had a weapon or something. Should have never been able to get that close. Awful security. Can't blame anyone for not attending this s**t show." Reddit user AnActualSadTaco remarked.
"Twitch bragging about their boosted security in that memo a few days ago, just for their top female streamer to get sexually assaulted on Day 1 AT THE EVENT. Twitch is such a f**king joke it's not even funny anymore." Reddit user obsido commented.

Meanwhile, Redditor tfwsamjackson believed that the incident involving the OTK (One True King) member was "another nail in the twitchcon coffin."

Twitch has addressed the situation. In a statement released to Sportskeeda, a Twitch representative said:

"The safety and security of all those attending TwitchCon is our highest priority. The behavior displayed by the individual involved in this incident was completely unacceptable and deeply upsetting. We immediately removed this individual from TwitchCon premises, and they are banned indefinitely from Twitch, both online and in-person events. Twitch has zero tolerance for harassment."

Emiru discloses that her security guard got permanently banned from TwitchCon

Emiru appeared as a guest on FaZe Clan member Jason "Jasontheween's" livestream on October 17, 2025, before attending TwitchCon 2025.

At one point, she disclosed that two years ago, her security guard had been permanently banned from TwitchCon because he "touched" an individual who had been following her around the convention:

"I've had a security guard, two years ago, where there was a guy following me around TwitchCon, and he, like, asked him to stop. My guard asked him, the guy wouldn't stop. So, he grabbed the guy, but he didn't, like, hurt him. He was just holding the guy until, like, they called the con security came. And then, for some reason, they're like, 'Yeah, because your security guard touched him, he's like, perma-banned from the venue forever.'"
