Cory “CoryxKenshin” DeVante Williams has found himself in a controversy around one of his past relationships.
The YouTuber with over 22.5 million subscribers was accused of manipulating and mentally and emotionally abusing his ex-partner, who claims to be PandaNinjaXx_Official (@pandaninjaxxofficial) on TikTok. She shared her allegations in a three-part series on the platform, titled “The Truth About Your Favorite YouTuber.”
In the caption of her posts, the TikToker also accused CoryxKenshin of narcissistic behavior, love-bombing, gaslighting, and emotional abandonment. At the same time, she also claimed to have faced status-fueled cruelty and illness-related trauma, seemingly referencing the YouTuber’s alleged insensitive comments about her breast cancer reveal.
However, contrary to misinformation on social media, PandaNinjaXx_Official (@pandaninjaxxofficial) didn’t accuse CoryxKenshin of s*xually assaulting her. Read on to learn more about the allegations made by the YouTuber’s ex-partner.
All about PandaNinjaXx_Official’s TikTok posts accusing CoryxKenshin of mental and emotional abuse
As mentioned, the TikToker shared her side of the story in a three-part series, recounting different instances of her interaction with the YouTuber during their relationship and after their breakup. She also attached multiple screenshots of her Xbox chat with CoryxKenshin as proof of the nature of their past relationship.
PandaNinjaXx_Official started in the first slide by writing,
“I didn’t want to do this but I don’t owe you my silence anymore. There’s no clean way to start. Just that familiar weight in my chest while the world kept applauding someone who never showed up for me.”
PandaNinjaXx_Official accused Cory of not acknowledging her publicly and called his “man of faith” image a branding. She alleged that despite talking about devotion, the YouTuber hurt people in private and implied that he fooled many with his persona, but not her. She continued talking about her relationship with CoryxKenshin,
“When I met you, I was at one of the lowest points in my life. I was still healing, still trying to remember how to love myself after going so long without it. I had all this love and nowhere to put it…and for a moment, your attention made me feel seen. Like maybe I wasn’t invisible anymore.”
She alleged that CoryxKenshin ghosted her to teach her a lesson. She added,
“Any time I tried to speak up, you twisted it into something wrong with me. And while I sat alone, replaying every word, breaking myself apart just trying to make sense of it…they were out here calling you a ‘Positive Role Model.’”
PandaNinjaXx_Official claimed that the allegedly toxic relationship had a negative impact on her mental wellbeing, while she tried to “convince myself it wasn’t that bad.” She accused CoryxKenshin of vanishing whenever she needed him and claimed that he “only came around when it was convenient.” PandaNinjaXx_Official asserted that Cory punished her with silence and distance. She added,
“You treated my body, my heart, my time like they were things you could shelve and retrieve whenever it suited you. Like I only existed when you needed to feel wanted.”
PandaNinjaXx_Official accused CoryxKenshin of making her “feel small for the job” she had. The TikToker claimed that she didn’t want anything from him other than being “treated like I mattered.” In the following slides, she recounted the alleged manipulation, gaslighting, and ghosting while talking about how it affected her. She concluded,
“I kept handing you chances. Kept trying to make sense of the hurt. Kept believing maybe there was something good in you worth holding onto. That part’s on me. But everything after that? That’s all you.”
PandaNinjaXx_Official shared screenshots of her Xbox chats with Cory
In the second part of the TikTok series, she shared some screenshots of her Xbox text exchange with CoryxKenshin. In the screengrabs, the YouTuber appears to be asking about the TikToker’s concurrent relationship status. When asked about the reason behind his question, CoryxKenshin jokes,
“Becos I’m trying to f*ck your life up some more”
In the following slide, PandaNinjaXx_Official wrote that his joke was neither funny nor cute due to the supposed pain he caused her the first time. She added,
“My chest locked up. I wasn’t even surprised. Just furious you still had the audacity to crawl back in like you were welcome. Like I’d let you ruin me again for your own entertainment. You didn’t come back to make things right. You came back because f*cking with me made you feel powerful. Because you knew I used to let you in.”
After sharing more screenshots from their chat, she further called out CoryxKenshin,
“You knew I’d survived SA. You knew how hard it was to feel safe in my own body. And you used that as leverage…just to remind me how far you’d gotten. Threw it in my face like I should be flattered. You didn’t want me. You wanted access.”
She continued slamming Cory,
“You crossed lines you had no right to. And you knew exactly what you were doing. Then you tried to backpedal…like everything could be if you called it a mistake. But it wasn’t a mistake. It was you. Being you.”
In the screenshots, the texts from CoryxKenshin read,
“Backpeddle- you were never used for s*x, I need to make sure you understand that I loved you Like I said, didn’t have my shit together”
PandaNinjaXx_Official wrote in the following slides,
“I didn’t have my shit together either. But I still showed up…with heart, with honesty, with care. I never used my chaos as an excuse to mind-f*ck someone else.”
The TikToker revealed that she was diagnosed with triple-negative breast cancer and reached out to many, including Cory, for closure. In one of the text screenshots, the YouTuber seemingly replies to PandaNinjaXx_Official’s reveal as follows:
“That was the most passive-aggressive cancer reveal ever lol”
The TikToker described CoryxKenshin’s response as “cruel” and claimed,
“It hit harder than the diagnosis itself.”
PandaNinjaXx_Official mentioned about meeting other women whom allegedly CoryxKenshin hurt
She called Cory “heartless” for his response despite having a similar experience in the past with his family. In the third story, PandaNinjaXx_Official talked about being reached out to by a gamer named N, who was interested in her and CoryxKenshin’s supposed relationship. She also alleged that one of the YouTuber’s close friends started watching her Instagram Stories all of a sudden.
In one of the slides, PandaNinjaXx_Official claimed that her and CoryxKenshin’s relationship drama helped her connect with other women who have allegedly been treated the same way by the YouTuber. She wrote,
“Because of that, I met the others…The other women you hurt. One by one, I got introduced to more of them. Women with stories. Women with messages they never sent. Women who saw the same patterns.”
In another slide, she revealed why she was opening up about her alleged toxic relationship with Cory,
“Because I was tired of living like your name held more weight than my voice. Tired of wondering if speaking would get me heard…or destroyed. Afraid that the second I said your name, people would stop seeing me and start labeling.”
She also wrote late in the post,
“This was never about revenge. This was about accountability. You wore kindness in public and cruelty in private..and silence helped you get away with both.”
She continued sharing her side of the story in the following few slides and concluded the third post with,
“No extra words. No permission. No apology. Just truth.”
In a subsequent TikTok post, PandaNinjaXx_Official shared a past video with Cory, in which the YouTuber is heard joking about watching her and “doing something” while she slept. In another post, she shared an older selfie with the YouTuber.
As of this writing, CoryxKenshin has yet to respond to PandaNinjaXx_Official’s TikTok posts and allegations.
