Lumi's Early Controversies and Personas [3:27]
Lumi Starbun initially gained attention as an online artist in the VTuber scene. She built an audience through art storytime streams and speed paints, often discussing drama. She became involved with a controversial artist named Madame, later claiming Madame betrayed her, which was later revealed to be a lie. Lumi was also accused of commissioning artists and then falsely claiming their work was traced or ugly to get refunds.

Doxing and Harassment of Castile [5:44]
Lumi repeatedly involved herself in drama to grow her channel. One of her earliest victims was Castile, an artist who was doxed over 20 times after a falling out with Lumi. Her home address, family photos, and phone numbers were leaked. Lumi also sent pizzas to Castile's house as a form of intimidation. Lumi attempted to swat Castile, but it failed due to local authorities requiring verification. Castile experienced PTSD symptoms due to Lumi's sustained, strategic, and personal harassment. Lumi admitted to leaking Castile's address but downplayed it, claiming it was already public and sent only to a close friend, which she later retracted.
Other Victims: Honeyfu and Light [11:38]
Honeyfu, a small YouTuber who initially supported Lumi, was later doxed and banned from servers after she no longer suited Lumi's needs. Lumi also made a video about Light, accusing her of dating a 13-year-old when she was 18, and included private PTSD information. Light debunked Lumi's claims as lies.
