@@JuniDrawzhi I js wanted to let u know that yarlexan is also problematic,I was in his server once and some drama kinda unfolded it happeneded at the start of the jan 2024 but yh(I don’t remember much but it was something about his girlfriend being underage? And a sexual comment he made about a girl
@@JuniDrawzthe only reason I remember this was cause some people were D-riding him and defending him about it and how it was probs ‘normalised’ in his country 💁♀️
for context with lolita the author wrote it with the intention of demonising the actions of humbert humbert. a lot of sickos dont understand that and its gross
Not-so-fun-fact: the author of Lore Olympus romanticized the book Lolita and there’s evidence of it on her old Tumblr page. Kinda makes sense the more you look at Hades and Persephone 🤢
I don't want to be annoying but the author is actually a weirdo and writes borderline or straight up csem in his other books I suggest you watch a video about it
@@RiddleLeft what videos and texts are you talking about i am genuinely curious because all the stuff ive read and watched says that Nabokov wrote lolita as a horror story as someone who was a victim himself?
@@basilbradshaw3947 I saw it in a video called "hiding in plain sight" by owl criticisms I can't remember the specific books but I heard that from a video about it
because its a fictional character i mean would you not be creeped out by a creator romanticizing an abusive relationship that involves a CHILD? Since she in of age then there is nothing really wrong since its just fiction (still weird they purposefully made her freshly 18 tho)
@@IceTea-i don't really gaf if the work is fiction people are messed up in the head if they think about an adult and a mere child in a romantic relationship together.
Every time someone romanticizes Lolita I die a little inside. It is a genuinely well written book about a child abuser and the dark nature they hold. It is about how they lie, manipulate, and cheat everyone (including the reader) in order to get their way. I think it is a well written book, BUT EVERY TIME I hear someone call it a love story, I swear an angel in heaven loses its wings. Also, this isn't aimed at you in a negative way at all rather at other people, but I am so sick of some people being like, "It's lolicon~" when no, it's damn pedophilia and perverted not some "complex." People need to stop trying to call it something else to make it sound "better." It's like those twitter clowns who are like, "I'm a minor attracted person." Wow, that's a weird way to pronounce pedophile, but ok.
In france there’s a wrong idea abt the book like instead of blaming humbert for being a pervert, lolita is blamed to ‘’sexualize’’ herself at a young age
oh yeah and for the 'lolita' stuff it gets worse... that fully rendered drawing is a reference to a scene in lolita where she rests her legs on humbert's lap and he, uh, gets really 'excited'. so that's why he has that expression. gross.
Edit: I did hear their story is based on their own toxic relationship they were in, plus they have some mental health issues. Plus people are mentioning a stalker. These probably don’t excuse all their actions but I thought these were at least very important to add. Dear god, I just saw their elevator man and psychocuties stuff in my recommended a while back. I followed them thinking this was a story that was clearly showing the mistreatment of a vulnerable person and needing to escape that relationship. Sucks to find out about all this. I hope you’re doing well after researching this.
True. I thought this too when I first discovered the animation after Elevator Man on my feed back in January. I thought it was going to paint a story about Mimi needing to realize her situation and needing to escape it, but after hearing what everyone is saying about the creator and the themes, now I don’t want to follow the story or characters. This sucks too, and I was a fan of the animation style (up until now). Well, after all of…this, I hope you’re doing okay, and I hope you have a good day.
@@13sinra13 Yeah, it’s such a shame, I really hope Mimi still leaves the doctor- even though now it may seem less likely. Anywho, dw about me, I’m doing well and I hope you have a nice day too!!
@@13sinra13 I have heard from the comments that psychocuties is based on a toxic relationship Tama was in- an important mention because they could still direct Mimi & the doctor’s relationship in a non yucky way if you get what I mean.
@@SpaceySodaPop Ah got it. Thanks. Still, I’m now not sure if I want to follow this story. Hopefully, it’ll be a “escape the abusive doctor” story since (at least to me initially) the first animation presents the premise somewhat that way (or maybe not, unfortunately). Still, I hope you have a good day!
tamakuz actually posted a new vid on the same day this iceberg was uploaded ! it was a short animatic of dr masacrik dancing along to the song “this hurts” by msi, going along with the lyrics by basically praising himself and following that up with “so why doesn’t that make me feel better ?” it then cuts to ushka with the lyrics “I need some more, need someone who’s insecure” before showing dr masacrik holding onto her as the lyrics say “controlling you makes me better” not really relevant to this vid much, but I thought I’d mention it in case anyone wanted to know,,, but like dr masacrik and ushka’s relationship is very intentionally toxic, and if you somehow couldn’t see that before, then this animatic LITERALLY says in your face that he’s using her to make himself feel better
Yeah I saw that vid, I watched it before I saw this iceberg video, I was initially so happy to see tamakuz finally posting after I had unsubbed cuz I thought she'd gone radio silent. I was about to get back into her channel till I saw this vid and all the things she's been doing online outside of her youtube platform, I genuinely hate how tamakuz tries to make these characters' relationship both clearly abusive and unhealthy but also 'cutsy' and 'fun' like wtf nooooo ewwww
@@Sp00ky_p1zza yesyes msi as in mindless self indulgence, and yeah it DOES explain a lot- that band’s done WAYYY too many things for me to even try to keep track of, and obviously tamakuz has too seeing as how this vid exists
@@silver_dusk its fiction there is nothing wrong with it its not hurting anybody, the mimi acting and looking like a child and the lolita drawings are wrong and weird af yall need to get your priorities straight
Some info here to elaborate on a bunch of things Used to be a fan here. The green haired guy is Buttercup, my favorite chatacter by Tamakuz. He’s the opposite of Masakrik. A man who’s full of himself yet way kinder than the Doctor. He has a crush on Strawberry but she doesn’t like him back. Buttercup and Doctor Masakrik butt heads alot. They both despise eachother. Strawberry and Buttercup are the employees of the hospital Doctor Masakrik used to work at. Unironically, Buttercup is the least toxic character there. Tamakuz is also a neo nazi. She glorifies Putin’s attack on Ukrain. There is a groupchat where she unironically has stickers where she is using swastika’s and “ die to Ukrain “ or something along that. She is for the entire ideal of communism. The creator you mentioned that had proved a lot of proof is also a creep themselves. I was in a server with a bit portion of the fanbase where he was the leader. He voiced the Psychocuties episode in English and it fitted a lot. Though, over the time the people moticed how odd he’s talking about from what i remember a 15 year old, where he was 18/19 at the time of the event. A big portion left the server and riled up against him because of his creepy behavior. Another thing: he kept messaging Tamakuz to a point where Tamakuz had enough of him. She was angry on how he was making, in her words, “ Shitty content “. He messaged her asking a bunch of questions but he wouldn’t stop. He kept making content regardless of Tamakuz being very rude from the start. This iceberg goes a lot deeper than it is 😅… EDIT: Buttercup was never used because she absolutely HATED this oc. She didn’t like him at all because it’s the complete opposite of what she likes.
1St: I didnt know about those during thr making of this video٫ 2nd: Do not use trauma to excuse actions٫ they are explanatioms but I do not owe this peraon forgiveness for their actions. HOWEVER٫ I truly wish Tamakuz is doing better in relation to those incidents.
@@JuniDrawz I completely agree with your words! I haven't been following her social networks for a long time, these are just bright and frequent topics that she raised herself. But she often posted texts about how that stalker harassed her (at one point, this stalker had an open group in VK, where he wished her the worst, constantly insulted her and made plans for a real meeting. I do not know if the group still exists, but I have personally seen these posts.)
@@JuniDrawzSorry, that seemed a bit aggressive? They werent using trauma to excuse their actions?? This is a video about psychocuties and the creator, so it seems important to mention. Thats all they were saying
The lolita drawing actually made my jaw drop. I knew about the other lolita drawing beforehand but seeing that fully rendered image made me feel sick, especially how they sexualized her. Anyway so glad I found this video because a lot of the fandom isnt even aware of tamakuz's actions and seeing someone finally speak up about it in detail gave me hope. I really wish the fandom in future becomes more aware of this and progresses to become better especially considering how many young girls I have seen talk about how they want a relationship simular to mimi's and the doctor (it's a conserning amount). ^^
When i first discovered pshycocuties i didn't know much about the lore and i thought ushka was a child and that she and the doctor were going to have a, probably toxic, father and daughter like relationship, i was SO wrong. Portraying an abusive relationship it's not bad if you don't romanticize it, but after seeing the art that the creator makes of their characters, and how they said that she was 18 when they were being called problematic, thats clearly not their intention, it just seems like a weird way to excuse their actions, to me, it sounds like the classic "she looks young but she's actually a 500 year old elf 🤓☝🏻".
They have a weird kink, it's the "cuteness" effect of kids they like. And if you groom them you basically raise them as your perfect partner. It's sick, but a lot of adults with inferiority complex think this way.
I mean, pedophilia, the disorder, can't be controlled as "I'll stop having weird feelings about children", however it is so easy to not act on it, glorify it, indulge in it, unless someone is a gross and awful person, which they clearly are.
i mean TECHNICALLY it’s a mental illness people don’t have a control of. they can control their actions and it should NOT be acted upon. the best way to deal with it is going to extensive therapy and staying far away from children.
Dude a while ago I saw tamakuz post on her channel making light of the criticism and she literally just said "victims of grooming are just as bad as their groomers cuz they keep bringing it up" (not exactly those words but this is not even an over reaction of what she said) and I find that so crazy💀
@@fizzmire420 yeah, because how dare people have the AUDACITY to speak up about a violent crime committed against them.. the absolute nerve. /sar seriously though, i wonder how she, or mfs in general are able to say that type of shit with ZERO shame. especially because id ASSUME if youve been stalked by a creepy weirdo, youd probably have sympathy towards people who are also victims of creepy weirdos too... apparently not, though.
i remembered loving their art so much after watching their animations that i looked everywhere for the vk account, and when i saw the N@zi vampire art-- i was in denial- looking back.. yeah.. disappointing since they could of had a good psychological horror type story
@@an_enigmaticdream yeah, at least they were in may when I checked their shop, idk if she’s still selling them. But yea they were, I was rlly disgusted. They also sold their church AU there
Yeah idk why we’re wasting so much time talking about cartoons when she’s a literal not-see (something that affects real living people!) but watch time/retention go off ig🤦🏽♂️
Unrelated to the video but i love how you stutter and have actual human emotion in your voice. Its clear you wrote out a script, which is normal. But most iceberg youtubers sound so dead inside and emotionless. You stuttering or skipping over your words occasionally makes it feel so much more human and easy to listen to. Definitely gonna be listening to your videos more!
It’s because the little rabbit girl has a child’s proportions, attitude, and also IS a literal teenager (18). This has always been like this, and none of this comes as a surprise to people who had their eyes open when they first saw it
I loved it because the story was put in an interesting light, i was intrigueded by the animation I stopped liking her after finding out about the neo nazism, pedophilia and communism…
Same... Ushko looking so young and acting so young turned me off. It is so weird. That she's barely legal is also sick. Why not make her 21? And the psycho doctor 33? Still a weird gap, but it's less ephebophilic...
I won't lie, this iceberg left me in shock, it hit me like a truck and even dumped a bucket of ice water on me. The worst part? The worst part was that I was a fan of this series, since I liked the concept I had inside my head (concept influenced by what I had heard from a Spanish-speaking youtuber, since I am Latin and my English level is basic to bad): A comedy where several psychopaths in love find themselves fighting in a love square while adorable and macabre things happen. I went into the video under the idea that I was going to find curiosities about the characters, curiosities that I was going to use to make a bot of a character I liked, but my god, what did I find? I was going to look for copper and I ended up finding hell: It hit me like a bat knowing that the creator was a fart who had changed her work to align with her “tastes” (something that pisses me off, because I went to research her drawings on VK and was surprised to find a human version of Ushka and I must admit I loved it more than the current concept), it hit me like a bucket of ice water about her being a white supremacist and the drawings with the funny mustache man outfit, but without a doubt what left me in shock of disgust was the Lolita drawing. Honestly, I feel quite shocked and upset to know that the creator was so distant to my idea of her, since I thought of her project as “an independent series that seeks to stand out” and I was even glad to think that animation in Russia was having more impact on this side of the globe where I live. But well, I don't know whether to bot or not anymore, but I think the best I can do is to completely disassociate the art from the artist and I guess make some changes to the character to improve it and take it out of the original concept. Shit, another series ruined because the creator doesn't realize that her philia is bad.
To be honest I was expecting something much worse. There are other artists that have evil characters and messed up relationships. I think the problem is people seeing those characters and thinking i want to be like that, or fetishizing it. I also find the fact that when I look for why people want to cancel the artist, it's hard to find evidence to backup why. I don't think a character reflects the thoughts of the artist, for a long time I would draw people that I hated. Just don't want to jump on the hate bandwagon without a good reason.
From an awful person came the details of Tamakuz's personal life and based on them people have made their conclusion that she is a highly problematic person which is true. Her art is her way to deal with unresolved traumatic experience but it causes people who are vulnerable to influence to start inflicting those ideas into themselves. It's okay for a troubled person to vent their feelings onto the paper, but there should be regulations of what you shouldn't post and regards to feelings of others. I don't think of her as a great evil being but rather a mentally ill girl who should get help and maybe her art will get better in means of ideas behind it as well.
You know I'm kinda surprised that just not so many years ago for artist in russian-speaking spaces was totally normal and even "trendy" to draw their characters in the nazi uniform or lolicon stuff, or abusive relationships, no one cared a slightest, it was literally popular for YEARS, from like 2010-2018 I believe. It was everywhere, nearly every artist has drawn just one thing from the list. Because there was NO culture of uhh treating characters and drawings as something serious, just as SOMETHING. Just arts. Just edgy little drawings that ment nothing, did just for fun. Then there was law in 2016(?) that proclaimed sexual drawings of minor characters equals to pedofilia now. I remember the whole MASSIVE albums of nsfw artworks were removed from mlp and homestuck fangroups and everyone was like "noooo" (guess what, the law is just on paper, you still can easily find them in closed groups and no one will or ever had actual legal troubles, The Adults has no care about drawing (oh but they're SURELY CARE about any gay artwork💀 THIS is where you might get troubled.)) And then around 2017-2018 something happened, like the internet kids grown up, learned english to enjoy twitter and tumblr, AND ONLY THEN people in the art community started to tabooing abuse art, nazi uniform and loli art, catching it from the english speaking community. ONLY THEN. But guess what, we still have NO cancel culture. It just don't exist here. I swear, somehow the most of people who actually give a fawk is 12-20yo who uses/used tumblr and twitter or who doesn't know english and just - uhh I don't want to say "catched a trend" but cant come up with the right words rn - from them. I'm just genuinely surprised that if, let's say, the whole russian internet was cut off from the world like the asian one, BY THIS DAY NO ONE WOULD EVER. CARE. A FLIPPING FLYING FUCK BY THESE DAYS. What a cultural perception, huh. So why am I saying this. It's veeery easy to dig up some shit on MANY russian-speaking artist. BUT because of them being just an edgy teens at the time and followed edgy trends without a thought. Many of them changed their minds as they grow up. I personally was obsessed with abusive creations when I was a teen AND AS AN ADULT I HAVE NO IDEA WHY💀💀💀. JUST NO IDEA. I DON'T EVEN REMEMBER. Guess it's was just hormones + teen rebel + mentality. English-speaking people and russian-speaking people were growing up in polar opposite worlds and still have pollar opposite mentalities. And from what I remember, creepypasta and edgy bloody animes was THE MOST popular fandoms at the time in Russia. Amost no one was parent supervised, it wasn't even a thing (and not a thing now, parents here don't care what their children doing on that silly little internet... and most families here are abusive and conservative) And I'm saying this not to defend Tamakuz by any means. She's doing it now, when everyone is already aware, not in 2013 when everyone literally had no idea those stuff are bad. Just informing for those who have no idea but may have a question "why it always russians". Also I love infodumping and have no friends lol sorry
Honestly thank you so much for making me understand now 😭 I always wondered why some ( well..most Russians) can be like this, it's so ridiculous to see some Russians who grow up from this era but still is so edgy to the point it's so immature and disgusting 💀
@@wumpisswhat's wrong with age regression??? I was told age regression is a coping mechanism that is highly recommend I'm glad you defended an age regresser
Oh my goodness it sucks so much when you've found a new interest and starting to enjoy it, but later then you find out about the dark truth of the artist... I'm speechless
In fact, there have been videos on this topic on russian-language youtube for a long time and some of them are just terrible and much worse than what tamakuz did on the Internet. For example, the most popular video about them is a video made by their stalker. He came to the door of the apartment where they live, sent them photos of their door, eavesdropped on them through the wall. He also encouraged people to harass tamakuz online, using their fascination with l0lic0n as a reason for. And all this, as far as I know, happened because they did not reciprocate and blocked him in the VK group. I didn't really dive into this situation, so this is only superficial information that I learned from the videos covering this conflict. I don't support what tamakuz were doing, but it that's not a reason for bullying and stalking online and irl. Also, I think people from the 1st world countries need to keep in mind that, according to my observations, people from the CIS are more prone to problematic behavior, since childhood in Russia and similar countries is often filled with traumatic events. I and most of my social circle live in the CIS, and many people with whom I was close enough to discuss trauma had some serious traumatic events as they grew up, from the death of relatives with subsequent funerals, to sa. And this cannot but lead to an interest in dark topics as a coping mechanism.
I literally just discovered "Psychocuties" last night and thought that the obviously toxic and abusive dynamic was the part of the plot without the sexualization, like, have the problem but it would be a topic that the public would see and think "Eww. Wtf, this guy is shit". Brazilian hugs. But thanks to your video I saw that unfortunately not. In short: I had no idea of the creator's intention or appreciation regarding the questionable dynamics she puts into her characters. I also draw, I have two characters who have a toxic relationship dynamic, but obviously I despise it and I wouldn't want to romanticize or boast about such a thing for a moment. **I really thank you for the informative video**, because I really wasn't aware and I'm quite disgusted and disappointed with the creator because she really knows how to draw and her animation is beautiful, but unfortunately the "beauty" will remain in an aesthetic way and not because of the rotten and unhealthy plot of romanticizing something like this as content for horny sicks who find it "beautiful"...
Very thorough an articulated video. Also, I believe that the art of the N*zi Sw*astika being carved into skin is a direct reference to the Inglorious Basterds movie where the antagonist (Hans Landa) suffers a similar fate.
I immensely respect anyone who will talk about an artist or figure online that no one talks about. So thank you. I saw red flags with the creator when I saw the elevator man vid.
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR MAKING THIS VIDEO, oh my glob i barely see anyone calling out tamakuz on the obvious really gross and weird stuff they’ve done and made
Good lord having this connected to Oingo Boingo and Danny Elfman in a way is absolutely wild LMAOOO (Danny Elfman sang Elevator Man btw, one of my fave artists/bands) It also pisses me off that people might associate this with the band and demonize it like one of the other works which is satire and making fun of creeps, which honestly the author probably would unironically use. Sighs, we cannot have nice things LMAO
all these leaks/exposures on tamakuz are provoked by her crazy stalker, by talking about this topic you are just once again making this creep happy. yes, she did draw gross things, i myself really hate it. but as i remember in the CIS such behavior was not even condemned for a long time, such a video could be made about sooo many russian artists. but why is there nothing like that about them? because they are not monitored by a creep, who sniffs out all the information, sometimes distorts the meaning and makes up facts, lol. (NOT SAYING IT'S NORMAL, i think that every artist who glorified discussed themes should be exposed one day. just why only her and why exactly when that dude wants it?) in conclusion, destroying her reputation is literally what her stalker wants rn, and making a whole video about her and never mentioning him (even in comments, you can do that literally in a couple of minutes) is imo... not good???
As I finished watching the video, I read from some of the comments that Tamakuz had a stalker as well as a declining mental state. Usually people who indulge in "cheese pizza" or NSFW drawings has had previous trauma of sorts, atleast from my experiences. I personally believe that when in a situation like that it is always best to keep yourself in check and look for therapy (or something of that nature), but I am unsure if Russia allows such a thing. Please correct me in the replies if I got some of the facts wrong.
I’m just confused on how some people didn’t realize they were weird from the start. Like, the cat girl looks like a literal child, and is basically OWNED by the doctor. Hello??
I hate when I really enjoy content and the creator turns out to be a massive creep or just awful person :( thank you so much for explaining all of this, I wouldn't have the patience to T^T hope you're doing well
ushka in the drawing abt Lolita wasn’t made by the creator of tamakuz it literally said “ok im terrified”. It was most likely reacting/replying to someone drawing inappropriate fanart of ushka and dr masacrik.
thank you for this video, i was a cautious fan (mostly because i liked the dr character but thought the girl looked way too young) so im glad to see my suspicions have been confirmed about this creator. i unsubscribed from their yt channel and wont be supporting them no longer.
I like when westerns keep talking about tamakuz being n@zi or pedo, but no one says shit about her creepy stalker who started spread all these rumors about her. Most of this proofes either fake or cut out of context. There is such a thing as the presumption of innocence. You have no right to accuse a person until he has comitted a crime. Tamakuz never harassed children or expressed sympathy for n@zism. I agree that she is weird and childish af. But you are trying to cancel a person while providing evidence of someone who has been following her for 3 years. Tell people about her stalker, who came to her home and try to cancel her for 3 damn years. Honestly, I have so many thoughts on this topic. I think that Tamakuz is very strange and is often wrong in her judgments. But she never did anything wrong to get her or psychocuties canceled.
Real and no hate to the creator at all but like, how do you do so much digging to find out that tamakuz has a sister but don't find out that she has a stalker for THREE years? That's also a big part, it's strange that they didn't include it, literally all the proof for the stuff she's done comes from her stalker and supposedly they didn't hear about him...? Ekemrmrrrmmm... 😭
9:28 I think I've seen a post with him, in the description it says his name is buttercup!!! 11:50 Tamakuz confirmed Masacrik is 25 on a page explaining psychocuties
Fun fact: at 15:30 , those are actually characters from the album "Frankenstein girls will seeem strangely sexy" by Mindless Self Indulgence. I'm not sure if those are actual lyrics though, because it seems like something Tamakuz AND Jimmy would say...
OH MY FUCKING GOD- that honestly just.. Made me sick to my stomach I'm not even joking i was sitting in my chair uncomfortably and sweating trying to force myself to listen the video until the end. I watched the Elevator man and psychocuties video because my friend also watched it and at first i jokingly said to her "Wtf Elevator man is such a pedophile 😭" because you know in the video old Ushka LOOKED LIKE A LITERAL CHILD and after hearing some people saying that Tamakuz is a creep and watching this video IT MAKES SO MUCH SENSE NOW 😭
My first exposure to all that was through the first ep of Psychocuties. And then i found out about all the drama throught a video, (admittedly, a very messed up video, considering how the guy managed to dig up most info) talking about lots of drama about Tamakuz. I kinda like that people are discovering stuff from my country, but also a bit ashamed that it's through something from such a problematic creator. Thanks alot for never saying "VKontakte". It always pains my soul when others try to say it in their vids.
GREEN HAIRD GUYS NAME IS BUTTER CUP!! And there is also one other character you missed!!! Her name is snail (not official but she has a snail hat!!)and all we know at the moment is she likes strawberry
If anyone feels like summarizing this i would appreciate, listening to 22 minutes of disappointment from a show i really respected since the day it came out is a pretty fat let down to my day
@@JuniDrawz I respect you for not getting upset of over watch time/views from one person I didn't actually think you'd respond. But damn that's such disappointment and I was really excited to see where this idea was going, I'll definitely watch this once I get over this but thank you for the heads up!
thank you so so much for making this video, i’m so so grateful for the time you put into your research i had intentions to post fanart of his show online and it glad i saw your video before supporting such a horrible person through fanart, genuinely thank you so so much
Everything else is valid but I don't believe the Nun art is that deep. Artists have sexualized many characters as Nuns/Priests before. I won't deny that it's most definately controversial at the very least, but this is just my opinion and the arguments depends on someones beliefs.
Coming from a Christian I do find it very disgusting. I know its been a thing for a while but they're literally women who devote themselves to God and taking that away from them is just awful. It's kind of like sexualising hijabs. The whole point is not to be and to show their devotion to God. As someone who's passionate about my religion it does feel very gross to see
Im drowning in disappointment and the revelation of the romanticized portrayal Lolita in Psycho Cuties. As an avid Nabokov enjoyer it disgusts me when any romanticozation of Lolita comes to play. To make this even worse in some degree Psycho Cuties was actually helping me cope with abuse I had faced previously and that just threw me off man
I found about psycho cuties when it had just came out, And I was honestly pretty amazed by it, I didn’t know about all this things and I had honestly thought it was just a choice of style on how old ushka looked, since some artists do that. I honestly was expecting a story where Ushka like escaped or confronted the doctor about it but uhh given the circumstances I think the story wants to lean into the toxicity. Thank you for informing us!! I hope this video stays the place it is at. Honestly pshyco cuties had some potential (story part, it’s original and such) , but again that’s just my opinion. Thank you!!
I only watched one video of there's because it was on my RUclips reccomend and saw it, but after watching this, I'm deeply and utterly shocked, disappointed and disgusted all at the same time! How do they sleep at night doing this?!
Honestly i agree with everything but i also heard she is getting stalked 😭 It was a russian video i didnt understand most of it💀 Anyways most people from russia is probably supporting her the most especially japan (lolitas ofc) I honestly love her work but im disappointed of her actions if shes able 2 change i would at least appreciate that bcs damn u really lost a beautiful art work 2 waste of ur fantasies Hopefully there isnt more people like this who has a massive fandom😭 Bcs at this point i lost faith in humanity
I’m so glad someone talked about this! I was scrolling on Pinterest when I came across that exact Nun AU fanart and was extremely disgusted. A few days earlier I had found the Elevator Man fan animation and even seeing just how these two characters were depicted made me feel uncomfortable. Anyone with a conscience and the ability to understand the implications of Dr. Masikir (I think that’s how you spell it) and Ushka’s relationship can clearly tell there is a SIGNIFICANT age gap. When I first saw the Elevator Man fan animation I recognized just how young Ushka looked. I’m so glad this video exists so I don’t have to sit here and question my feelings about how weird this whole thing is.
A few days ago my friend showed me and talked about psychocuties I did find it interesting and watched the elevator video and found it a bit strange due to ushka's human appearance being a bit younger despite her being a fresh 18 year old. My friend told me that tamakuz were a bit problematic but still liked the art style of the series. I looked more into the series and stumbled across this video and now I'm disgusted of the things tamakuz did. I tried to reason with my friend how they shouldn't be so mesmerized by the cute art when its romanticizing abuse. Luckily she understands but I'm worried for them.
Thank you so so SO much for covering this topic!! I heard on tiktok about all of the disgusting shit (the n@z! arts, l0lita etc.), which i already found disgusting, but i did not expect it to go this far. You are an absolute gem, spending 16 hours on research. I really hope more people will find this video, because you covered everything so well!!
tamakuz has done a lot of bad stuff but alot of stuff mentioned is oc lore, and a lot of it is in mistranslation (russian to english), not defending tamakuz btw js clarifying
Im so glad you made this video, I got into psycho cuties but felt that the relationship between those two was creepy and every time I saw a post about psycho cuties there was always a comment saying that the creator was a weirdo, and then another comment defending them. Now I now what’s true and false, thank you and to hell with this series.
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR BRINGING THIS SUBJECT TO LIGHT. People I used to be friends with absolutely love this story and I've found it revolting, to say the least. I don't like Psychocuties and I can't be around the people who enjoy it.
Someone in the comments mentioned that artist is also pro-war, and if anyone has evidence or just can confirm, please do, because i personally never heard of it before today.
when I heard Yarlixen I gasped cause im in their discord server and didn't expect to see them here, they are working on their own iceberg and it should be releasing here around mid august ^^
Yikes, and yeah. The more you know. There's been other media where the villains are either revealed to be antiheros or comic relief in their actions. What Tamakuz is doing looks like NONE of that! Hope she gets good help in the future.
idk if it's just me slowly being the most problematic person bc i'm also an msi fan like them.. but i wasn't like shocked or smt bc i think im just really used to people being like this but i mean i don't mind with ppl buying.. weird.. things EXCEPT if they go out and do those things to others and try to hurt others or use an image of A REAL PERSON and get weird with it like ok be weird asf but don't get other people involved
I didnt realize that anyone still looked at psycho cuties but im genuinely so glad this video was made because i didnt have a full extent on how much the creator sucks and is weird, thank you for the education 🙏
Ita great you speak up about this, people will support terrible people just ebcaude there art is "good" or the creator is "hot" etc but my jaw DROPPED on the Lolita art. It sickens me
Hey uhhh psychotic and psychopathic describe different things? Psychosis is a type of unstable grip on reality and usually doesn’t involve violence, and psychotic people are more likely to be victims of violence. Psychopathy is a type of ASPD, which does make people do bad things. But a lot of people consider this stigmatization! People with ASPD aren’t all evil criminals
@@almondthefurret6818Hey... Person with ASPD here! Psychopathy doesn't exist anymore as a professional term, there are like two types of ASPD, but they aren't called "sociopathy" and "psychopathy". Those were used by ableist psychologists back then. They aren't used anymore because they are judgemental.
@@almondthefurret6818 You're welcome, just be careful what you spread next time lmao. I can understand the confusion though. Media treats ASPD like psychopathy is still a term and you seem young. No one's fault here.
actually I've known tmkz for a long time and since im, well, a ru-speaking critter i know a shite ton of stuff about her art at least about her art until 22-23? stopped following her somewhere around that time bc well her style is indeed cool but the themes creeped me out more and more :") although i remember her or some of her friends or followers (i forgor) saying that psychonya is not romanticizing certain themes i simply cannot sence that? it's not some exaggeration for funsies (i for one cannot understand how could anyone treat such themes as fun ones but well people can laugh at anything so-) nor is it a satire or sth like that it really DOES feel like romanticizing and it truly is gross so uhm not sure how to end this, just wanted to say that i prolly know too much info for my liking x) also thanks for the video, it was interesting to listen about a ru creator in English, even if the creator in question isn't the one i'm fond of :D
oh my gosh, my flabbers are gasted, until a couple days ago i only knew of the music video, i was kind of creeped out by dr masacrik but felt relieved knowing that ushka wasnt a kid. but wow i thought the thing was creepy but not THAT creepy, tysm for this vid

And a sexual comment he made about a girl
@@JuniDrawzthe only reason I remember this was cause some people were D-riding him and defending him about it and how it was probs ‘normalised’ in his country 💁♀️
And i found out the green guys name
for context with lolita the author wrote it with the intention of demonising the actions of humbert humbert. a lot of sickos dont understand that and its gross
what really pisses me off and makes me sad even is that he based it off of his own experience with being groomed by his uncle
Not-so-fun-fact: the author of Lore Olympus romanticized the book Lolita and there’s evidence of it on her old Tumblr page. Kinda makes sense the more you look at Hades and Persephone 🤢
I don't want to be annoying but the author is actually a weirdo and writes borderline or straight up csem in his other books
I suggest you watch a video about it
@@RiddleLeft what videos and texts are you talking about i am genuinely curious because all the stuff ive read and watched says that Nabokov wrote lolita as a horror story as someone who was a victim himself?
@@basilbradshaw3947 I saw it in a video called "hiding in plain sight" by owl criticisms
I can't remember the specific books but I heard that from a video about it
it made me so mad that people got upset about him abusing her and then when they found out she was an adult they stopped caring like.. what…..
because its a fictional character i mean would you not be creeped out by a creator romanticizing an abusive relationship that involves a CHILD? Since she in of age then there is nothing really wrong since its just fiction (still weird they purposefully made her freshly 18 tho)
@@IceTea-i don't really gaf if the work is fiction people are messed up in the head if they think about an adult and a mere child in a romantic relationship together.
@@matchmakee i never said it wasnt wrong??? at least read my comment before replying
Every time someone romanticizes Lolita I die a little inside. It is a genuinely well written book about a child abuser and the dark nature they hold. It is about how they lie, manipulate, and cheat everyone (including the reader) in order to get their way. I think it is a well written book, BUT EVERY TIME I hear someone call it a love story, I swear an angel in heaven loses its wings. Also, this isn't aimed at you in a negative way at all rather at other people, but I am so sick of some people being like, "It's lolicon~" when no, it's damn pedophilia and perverted not some "complex." People need to stop trying to call it something else to make it sound "better." It's like those twitter clowns who are like, "I'm a minor attracted person." Wow, that's a weird way to pronounce pedophile, but ok.
Book?
@@extraterrestrialcontent "Lolita" by Vladimir Nabokov
In france there’s a wrong idea abt the book like instead of blaming humbert for being a pervert, lolita is blamed to ‘’sexualize’’ herself at a young age
oh yeah and for the 'lolita' stuff it gets worse... that fully rendered drawing is a reference to a scene in lolita where she rests her legs on humbert's lap and he, uh, gets really 'excited'. so that's why he has that expression. gross.
WHAT.
Oh!
That is just fucking gross 🤢
You don't understand how far my jaw dropped when I read this comment
@@bleedingC0rspe same....
Lolita is actually a really good book. Its dark, but really good. Its not about glorifying pdfilia, its a psychological novel
It’s fucking disgusting
I would argue it's about the dangers of predatory people and how easy it is for them to integrate themselves into the lives of their victims
Nabokov was also a victim himself as a child.
@ exactly!!
Edit: I did hear their story is based on their own toxic relationship they were in, plus they have some mental health issues. Plus people are mentioning a stalker. These probably don’t excuse all their actions but I thought these were at least very important to add.
Dear god, I just saw their elevator man and psychocuties stuff in my recommended a while back. I followed them thinking this was a story that was clearly showing the mistreatment of a vulnerable person and needing to escape that relationship. Sucks to find out about all this. I hope you’re doing well after researching this.
True. I thought this too when I first discovered the animation after Elevator Man on my feed back in January. I thought it was going to paint a story about Mimi needing to realize her situation and needing to escape it, but after hearing what everyone is saying about the creator and the themes, now I don’t want to follow the story or characters. This sucks too, and I was a fan of the animation style (up until now). Well, after all of…this, I hope you’re doing okay, and I hope you have a good day.
@@13sinra13 Yeah, it’s such a shame, I really hope Mimi still leaves the doctor- even though now it may seem less likely.
Anywho, dw about me, I’m doing well and I hope you have a nice day too!!
@@13sinra13 I have heard from the comments that psychocuties is based on a toxic relationship Tama was in- an important mention because they could still direct Mimi & the doctor’s relationship in a non yucky way if you get what I mean.
@@SpaceySodaPop Ah got it. Thanks. Still, I’m now not sure if I want to follow this story. Hopefully, it’ll be a “escape the abusive doctor” story since (at least to me initially) the first animation presents the premise somewhat that way (or maybe not, unfortunately). Still, I hope you have a good day!
@@13sinra13 Understandable and I hope you have a good day as well!!
tamakuz actually posted a new vid on the same day this iceberg was uploaded !
it was a short animatic of dr masacrik dancing along to the song “this hurts” by msi, going along with the lyrics by basically praising himself and following that up with “so why doesn’t that make me feel better ?”
it then cuts to ushka with the lyrics “I need some more, need someone who’s insecure” before showing dr masacrik holding onto her as the lyrics say “controlling you makes me better”
not really relevant to this vid much, but I thought I’d mention it in case anyone wanted to know,,, but like dr masacrik and ushka’s relationship is very intentionally toxic, and if you somehow couldn’t see that before, then this animatic LITERALLY says in your face that he’s using her to make himself feel better
Yeah I saw that vid, I watched it before I saw this iceberg video, I was initially so happy to see tamakuz finally posting after I had unsubbed cuz I thought she'd gone radio silent. I was about to get back into her channel till I saw this vid and all the things she's been doing online outside of her youtube platform, I genuinely hate how tamakuz tries to make these characters' relationship both clearly abusive and unhealthy but also 'cutsy' and 'fun' like wtf nooooo ewwww
msi? as in mindless self indulgence? that explains A LOT knowing what that band did
@@silver_dusk NO CAUSE ME TOO, THIS VID POPPED UP IN MY PLAY NEXT RIGHT AFTER I WATCHED THE ANIMATIC,,,
@@Sp00ky_p1zza yesyes msi as in mindless self indulgence, and yeah it DOES explain a lot- that band’s done WAYYY too many things for me to even try to keep track of, and obviously tamakuz has too seeing as how this vid exists
@@silver_dusk its fiction there is nothing wrong with it its not hurting anybody, the mimi acting and looking like a child and the lolita drawings are wrong and weird af yall need to get your priorities straight
tamakuz is a creep and she doesnt even try to hide it
Some info here to elaborate on a bunch of things Used to be a fan here.
The green haired guy is Buttercup, my favorite chatacter by Tamakuz. He’s the opposite of Masakrik. A man who’s full of himself yet way kinder than the Doctor. He has a crush on Strawberry but she doesn’t like him back. Buttercup and Doctor Masakrik butt heads alot. They both despise eachother. Strawberry and Buttercup are the employees of the hospital Doctor Masakrik used to work at.
Unironically, Buttercup is the least toxic character there.
Tamakuz is also a neo nazi. She glorifies Putin’s attack on Ukrain. There is a groupchat where she unironically has stickers where she is using swastika’s and “ die to Ukrain “ or something along that. She is for the entire ideal of communism.
The creator you mentioned that had proved a lot of proof is also a creep themselves. I was in a server with a bit portion of the fanbase where he was the leader. He voiced the Psychocuties episode in English and it fitted a lot. Though, over the time the people moticed how odd he’s talking about from what i remember a 15 year old, where he was 18/19 at the time of the event. A big portion left the server and riled up against him because of his creepy behavior. Another thing: he kept messaging Tamakuz to a point where Tamakuz had enough of him. She was angry on how he was making, in her words, “ Shitty content “. He messaged her asking a bunch of questions but he wouldn’t stop. He kept making content regardless of Tamakuz being very rude from the start.
This iceberg goes a lot deeper than it is 😅…
EDIT: Buttercup was never used because she absolutely HATED this oc. She didn’t like him at all because it’s the complete opposite of what she likes.
She's a neo notsee but she also has communist ideals? That's very contradictory 🤦🏿♀️
a communist neo-nazi who glorifies killing nazis. what a spectacular person she is
and to think i loved that elevator man video. jesus christ this is horrible.
as a Ukrainian im not surprised
Am I the only one who clicked on this when I have no idea what is is?
Edit thx for all the likes

reaaal, i clicked cuz the art looked cool and now im horrified
Ur not the only one trust me 😭

It's strange that this iceberg doesn't say anything about her terrible stalker in real life and her psychological sinking state…
1St: I didnt know about those during thr making of this video٫ 2nd: Do not use trauma to excuse actions٫ they are explanatioms but I do not owe this peraon forgiveness for their actions. HOWEVER٫ I truly wish Tamakuz is doing better in relation to those incidents.
@@JuniDrawz I completely agree with your words! I haven't been following her social networks for a long time, these are just bright and frequent topics that she raised herself. But she often posted texts about how that stalker harassed her (at one point, this stalker had an open group in VK, where he wished her the worst, constantly insulted her and made plans for a real meeting. I do not know if the group still exists, but I have personally seen these posts.)
@@JuniDrawzSorry, that seemed a bit aggressive? They werent using trauma to excuse their actions?? This is a video about psychocuties and the creator, so it seems important to mention. Thats all they were saying
@@ruelieaggressive where😭 it was foward and short geez yall dont know what aggressive means anymore
@@bunbun-iq3vr maybe aggressive was the wrong word, but it was accusatory for literally no reason
The lolita drawing actually made my jaw drop. I knew about the other lolita drawing beforehand but seeing that fully rendered image made me feel sick, especially how they sexualized her. Anyway so glad I found this video because a lot of the fandom isnt even aware of tamakuz's actions and seeing someone finally speak up about it in detail gave me hope. I really wish the fandom in future becomes more aware of this and progresses to become better especially considering how many young girls I have seen talk about how they want a relationship simular to mimi's and the doctor (it's a conserning amount). ^^
The “green guy”s name is Buttercup officially, theres also a few more characters than the ones you’ve mentioned
TYYY
When i first discovered pshycocuties i didn't know much about the lore and i thought ushka was a child and that she and the doctor were going to have a, probably toxic, father and daughter like relationship, i was SO wrong. Portraying an abusive relationship it's not bad if you don't romanticize it, but after seeing the art that the creator makes of their characters, and how they said that she was 18 when they were being called problematic, thats clearly not their intention, it just seems like a weird way to excuse their actions, to me, it sounds like the classic "she looks young but she's actually a 500 year old elf 🤓☝🏻".

Why is it so hard for people to not have weird feelings about children. Like bro it's a lot of grown people why are they looking for kids
They have a weird kink, it's the "cuteness" effect of kids they like. And if you groom them you basically raise them as your perfect partner. It's sick, but a lot of adults with inferiority complex think this way.
Is called disease
I mean, pedophilia, the disorder, can't be controlled as "I'll stop having weird feelings about children", however it is so easy to not act on it, glorify it, indulge in it, unless someone is a gross and awful person, which they clearly are.
i mean TECHNICALLY it’s a mental illness people don’t have a control of. they can control their actions and it should NOT be acted upon. the best way to deal with it is going to extensive therapy and staying far away from children.
Bc they're sick and they have too much testosterone
All of this art screams Romancized toxic abusive relationship. So im not surprised 🚮 wouldn't even let a younger sibling meet the artist.
Dude a while ago I saw tamakuz post on her channel making light of the criticism and she literally just said "victims of grooming are just as bad as their groomers cuz they keep bringing it up" (not exactly those words but this is not even an over reaction of what she said) and I find that so crazy💀
Correcting myself, she didn't say victims of grooming she said victims of rape
@@fizzmire420 if what youre saying is true, either way that is disgusting on honestly ABYSMAL levels.
@@imthewokerbaby exactly, I found it in her telegram channel. It’s still up and I’m pretty sure she has no regret or anything from posting that shit

seriously though, i wonder how she, or mfs in general are able to say that type of shit with ZERO shame. especially because id ASSUME if youve been stalked by a creepy weirdo, youd probably have sympathy towards people who are also victims of creepy weirdos too... apparently not, though.
I wonder where you saw this post, because honestly I had never seen this neither in her youtube, vk page or telegram channel
i remembered loving their art so much after watching their animations that i looked everywhere for the vk account, and when i saw the N@zi vampire art-- i was in denial- looking back.. yeah.. disappointing since they could of had a good psychological horror type story
the worst thing is that they sell it

Unrelated to the video but i love how you stutter and have actual human emotion in your voice. Its clear you wrote out a script, which is normal. But most iceberg youtubers sound so dead inside and emotionless. You stuttering or skipping over your words occasionally makes it feel so much more human and easy to listen to. Definitely gonna be listening to your videos more!
TYSSMM I get so many
Comments complaining about it but this was so sweeet ❤️
About time someone makes a video about this weird ass thing. I hated psycho cuties when i first found out about it. It always rubbed me the wrong way
It’s because the little rabbit girl has a child’s proportions, attitude, and also IS a literal teenager (18). This has always been like this, and none of this comes as a surprise to people who had their eyes open when they first saw it
I loved it because the story was put in an interesting light, i was intrigueded by the animation
I stopped liking her after finding out about the neo nazism, pedophilia and communism…
Same... Ushko looking so young and acting so young turned me off. It is so weird. That she's barely legal is also sick. Why not make her 21? And the psycho doctor 33? Still a weird gap, but it's less ephebophilic...
As a Psychocuties fan (only the show, not the creator now) this absolutely shocked me.. thank u so much for making this video
I won't lie, this iceberg left me in shock, it hit me like a truck and even dumped a bucket of ice water on me. The worst part? The worst part was that I was a fan of this series, since I liked the concept I had inside my head (concept influenced by what I had heard from a Spanish-speaking youtuber, since I am Latin and my English level is basic to bad): A comedy where several psychopaths in love find themselves fighting in a love square while adorable and macabre things happen.
I went into the video under the idea that I was going to find curiosities about the characters, curiosities that I was going to use to make a bot of a character I liked, but my god, what did I find? I was going to look for copper and I ended up finding hell:
It hit me like a bat knowing that the creator was a fart who had changed her work to align with her “tastes” (something that pisses me off, because I went to research her drawings on VK and was surprised to find a human version of Ushka and I must admit I loved it more than the current concept), it hit me like a bucket of ice water about her being a white supremacist and the drawings with the funny mustache man outfit, but without a doubt what left me in shock of disgust was the Lolita drawing.
Honestly, I feel quite shocked and upset to know that the creator was so distant to my idea of her, since I thought of her project as “an independent series that seeks to stand out” and I was even glad to think that animation in Russia was having more impact on this side of the globe where I live. But well, I don't know whether to bot or not anymore, but I think the best I can do is to completely disassociate the art from the artist and I guess make some changes to the character to improve it and take it out of the original concept. Shit, another series ruined because the creator doesn't realize that her philia is bad.
To be honest I was expecting something much worse. There are other artists that have evil characters and messed up relationships. I think the problem is people seeing those characters and thinking i want to be like that, or fetishizing it. I also find the fact that when I look for why people want to cancel the artist, it's hard to find evidence to backup why. I don't think a character reflects the thoughts of the artist, for a long time I would draw people that I hated. Just don't want to jump on the hate bandwagon without a good reason.
Honestly, same here. I just... I'm on the fence, y'know?
From an awful person came the details of Tamakuz's personal life and based on them people have made their conclusion that she is a highly problematic person which is true. Her art is her way to deal with unresolved traumatic experience but it causes people who are vulnerable to influence to start inflicting those ideas into themselves. It's okay for a troubled person to vent their feelings onto the paper, but there should be regulations of what you shouldn't post and regards to feelings of others. I don't think of her as a great evil being but rather a mentally ill girl who should get help and maybe her art will get better in means of ideas behind it as well.
You know I'm kinda surprised that just not so many years ago for artist in russian-speaking spaces was totally normal and even "trendy" to draw their characters in the nazi uniform or lolicon stuff, or abusive relationships, no one cared a slightest, it was literally popular for YEARS, from like 2010-2018 I believe. It was everywhere, nearly every artist has drawn just one thing from the list. Because there was NO culture of uhh treating characters and drawings as something serious, just as SOMETHING. Just arts. Just edgy little drawings that ment nothing, did just for fun. Then there was law in 2016(?) that proclaimed sexual drawings of minor characters equals to pedofilia now. I remember the whole MASSIVE albums of nsfw artworks were removed from mlp and homestuck fangroups and everyone was like "noooo" (guess what, the law is just on paper, you still can easily find them in closed groups and no one will or ever had actual legal troubles, The Adults has no care about drawing (oh but they're SURELY CARE about any gay artwork💀 THIS is where you might get troubled.))
And then around 2017-2018 something happened, like the internet kids grown up, learned english to enjoy twitter and tumblr, AND ONLY THEN people in the art community started to tabooing abuse art, nazi uniform and loli art, catching it from the english speaking community. ONLY THEN. But guess what, we still have NO cancel culture. It just don't exist here. I swear, somehow the most of people who actually give a fawk is 12-20yo who uses/used tumblr and twitter or who doesn't know english and just - uhh I don't want to say "catched a trend" but cant come up with the right words rn - from them.
I'm just genuinely surprised that if, let's say, the whole russian internet was cut off from the world like the asian one, BY THIS DAY NO ONE WOULD EVER. CARE. A FLIPPING FLYING FUCK BY THESE DAYS.
What a cultural perception, huh.
So why am I saying this. It's veeery easy to dig up some shit on MANY russian-speaking artist. BUT because of them being just an edgy teens at the time and followed edgy trends without a thought. Many of them changed their minds as they grow up. I personally was obsessed with abusive creations when I was a teen AND AS AN ADULT I HAVE NO IDEA WHY💀💀💀. JUST NO IDEA. I DON'T EVEN REMEMBER. Guess it's was just hormones + teen rebel + mentality. English-speaking people and russian-speaking people were growing up in polar opposite worlds and still have pollar opposite mentalities. And from what I remember, creepypasta and edgy bloody animes was THE MOST popular fandoms at the time in Russia. Amost no one was parent supervised, it wasn't even a thing (and not a thing now, parents here don't care what their children doing on that silly little internet... and most families here are abusive and conservative)
And I'm saying this not to defend Tamakuz by any means. She's doing it now, when everyone is already aware, not in 2013 when everyone literally had no idea those stuff are bad. Just informing for those who have no idea but may have a question "why it always russians". Also I love infodumping and have no friends lol sorry
it's just americans being a prudish hyporcites, do not cite to them.
Honestly thank you so much for making me understand now 😭 I always wondered why some ( well..most Russians) can be like this, it's so ridiculous to see some Russians who grow up from this era but still is so edgy to the point it's so immature and disgusting 💀

Oh my goodness it sucks so much when you've found a new interest and starting to enjoy it, but later then you find out about the dark truth of the artist... I'm speechless
In fact, there have been videos on this topic on russian-language youtube for a long time and some of them are just terrible and much worse than what tamakuz did on the Internet. For example, the most popular video about them is a video made by their stalker. He came to the door of the apartment where they live, sent them photos of their door, eavesdropped on them through the wall. He also encouraged people to harass tamakuz online, using their fascination with l0lic0n as a reason for. And all this, as far as I know, happened because they did not reciprocate and blocked him in the VK group. I didn't really dive into this situation, so this is only superficial information that I learned from the videos covering this conflict. I don't support what tamakuz were doing, but it that's not a reason for bullying and stalking online and irl.
Also, I think people from the 1st world countries need to keep in mind that, according to my observations, people from the CIS are more prone to problematic behavior, since childhood in Russia and similar countries is often filled with traumatic events. I and most of my social circle live in the CIS, and many people with whom I was close enough to discuss trauma had some serious traumatic events as they grew up, from the death of relatives with subsequent funerals, to sa. And this cannot but lead to an interest in dark topics as a coping mechanism.
Didn't they purposely make their ocs dynamic toxic?
They DID make it on purpose and mentioned it many times but for everyone it's easier to call artist a pedo or smth like this
Sadly, it is time for me to seperate the art from the artist. Hopefully this person grows up (idk how old they are to be clear)
@@peachpopsicle4090 definitely too old for this behavior, thats for sure.
15:33 that's actually a lyric reference to a song from the band MSI
I literally just discovered "Psychocuties" last night and thought that the obviously toxic and abusive dynamic was the part of the plot without the sexualization, like, have the problem but it would be a topic that the public would see and think "Eww. Wtf, this guy is shit".
Brazilian hugs.
But thanks to your video I saw that unfortunately not. In short: I had no idea of the creator's intention or appreciation regarding the questionable dynamics she puts into her characters. I also draw, I have two characters who have a toxic relationship dynamic, but obviously I despise it and I wouldn't want to romanticize or boast about such a thing for a moment. **I really thank you for the informative video**, because I really wasn't aware and I'm quite disgusted and disappointed with the creator because she really knows how to draw and her animation is beautiful, but unfortunately the "beauty" will remain in an aesthetic way and not because of the rotten and unhealthy plot of romanticizing something like this as content for horny sicks who find it "beautiful"...
Very thorough an articulated video. Also, I believe that the art of the N*zi Sw*astika being carved into skin is a direct reference to the Inglorious Basterds movie where the antagonist (Hans Landa) suffers a similar fate.
So apparently this is the slavic reincarnation of shadman? Not cool.. (also i had no idea who this guy was until i saw this vid)
honestly shadman is waaaaay worse than tamakuz who can still somehow get help
Tamakuz is a female

THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR MAKING THIS VIDEO, oh my glob i barely see anyone calling out tamakuz on the obvious really gross and weird stuff they’ve done and made
Help the word 'glob' is blue in ur commebt 😭😭😭
Good lord having this connected to Oingo Boingo and Danny Elfman in a way is absolutely wild LMAOOO (Danny Elfman sang Elevator Man btw, one of my fave artists/bands) It also pisses me off that people might associate this with the band and demonize it like one of the other works which is satire and making fun of creeps, which honestly the author probably would unironically use. Sighs, we cannot have nice things LMAO
thank you so so much for uploading this, i watched the one episode being skeptical of it and finding some scenes odd but i never knew about this stuff
all these leaks/exposures on tamakuz are provoked by her crazy stalker, by talking about this topic you are just once again making this creep happy.
yes, she did draw gross things, i myself really hate it. but as i remember in the CIS such behavior was not even condemned for a long time, such a video could be made about sooo many russian artists. but why is there nothing like that about them? because they are not monitored by a creep, who sniffs out all the information, sometimes distorts the meaning and makes up facts, lol. (NOT SAYING IT'S NORMAL, i think that every artist who glorified discussed themes should be exposed one day. just why only her and why exactly when that dude wants it?)
in conclusion, destroying her reputation is literally what her stalker wants rn, and making a whole video about her and never mentioning him (even in comments, you can do that literally in a couple of minutes) is imo... not good???
As I finished watching the video, I read from some of the comments that Tamakuz had a stalker as well as a declining mental state. Usually people who indulge in "cheese pizza" or NSFW drawings has had previous trauma of sorts, atleast from my experiences.
I personally believe that when in a situation like that it is always best to keep yourself in check and look for therapy (or something of that nature), but I am unsure if Russia allows such a thing.
Please correct me in the replies if I got some of the facts wrong.
I’m just confused on how some people didn’t realize they were weird from the start. Like, the cat girl looks like a literal child, and is basically OWNED by the doctor. Hello??
I’ve heard of this series actually!!! Saw the animation of the elevator man, thought the art style was cool,, but wasn’t aware of all this stuff 😨
THIS IS SO UPSETING OMG. I really thought it was just a cute little show that had a normal creator :(
I hate when I really enjoy content and the creator turns out to be a massive creep or just awful person :( thank you so much for explaining all of this, I wouldn't have the patience to T^T hope you're doing well
ushka in the drawing abt Lolita wasn’t made by the creator of tamakuz it literally said “ok im terrified”. It was most likely reacting/replying to someone drawing inappropriate fanart of ushka and dr masacrik.
thank you for this video, i was a cautious fan (mostly because i liked the dr character but thought the girl looked way too young) so im glad to see my suspicions have been confirmed about this creator. i unsubscribed from their yt channel and wont be supporting them no longer.
I like when westerns keep talking about tamakuz being n@zi or pedo, but no one says shit about her creepy stalker who started spread all these rumors about her. Most of this proofes either fake or cut out of context.
There is such a thing as the presumption of innocence. You have no right to accuse a person until he has comitted a crime. Tamakuz never harassed children or expressed sympathy for n@zism. I agree that she is weird and childish af.
But you are trying to cancel a person while providing evidence of someone who has been following her for 3 years.
Tell people about her stalker, who came to her home and try to cancel her for 3 damn years.
Honestly, I have so many thoughts on this topic. I think that Tamakuz is very strange and is often wrong in her judgments. But she never did anything wrong to get her or psychocuties canceled.
Real and no hate to the creator at all but like, how do you do so much digging to find out that tamakuz has a sister but don't find out that she has a stalker for THREE years? That's also a big part, it's strange that they didn't include it, literally all the proof for the stuff she's done comes from her stalker and supposedly they didn't hear about him...? Ekemrmrrrmmm... 😭
@Laschietotsk so true man
agree!
I WAS waiting for someone to talk about this but couldn’t find a single video!!! Juni u always do an amazing job on these videos!!! :D
WHAHH THATS SO COOL TYSMM UR SO SWEEEET 💞
9:28 I think I've seen a post with him, in the description it says his name is buttercup!!!
11:50 Tamakuz confirmed Masacrik is 25 on a page explaining psychocuties
Fun fact: at 15:30 , those are actually characters from the album "Frankenstein girls will seeem strangely sexy" by Mindless Self Indulgence. I'm not sure if those are actual lyrics though, because it seems like something Tamakuz AND Jimmy would say...
OH MY FUCKING GOD- that honestly just.. Made me sick to my stomach I'm not even joking i was sitting in my chair uncomfortably and sweating trying to force myself to listen the video until the end. I watched the Elevator man and psychocuties video because my friend also watched it and at first i jokingly said to her "Wtf Elevator man is such a pedophile 😭" because you know in the video old Ushka LOOKED LIKE A LITERAL CHILD and after hearing some people saying that Tamakuz is a creep and watching this video IT MAKES SO MUCH SENSE NOW 😭
My first exposure to all that was through the first ep of Psychocuties. And then i found out about all the drama throught a video, (admittedly, a very messed up video, considering how the guy managed to dig up most info) talking about lots of drama about Tamakuz.
I kinda like that people are discovering stuff from my country, but also a bit ashamed that it's through something from such a problematic creator.
Thanks alot for never saying "VKontakte". It always pains my soul when others try to say it in their vids.
GREEN HAIRD GUYS NAME IS BUTTER CUP!! And there is also one other character you missed!!! Her name is snail (not official but she has a snail hat!!)and all we know at the moment is she likes strawberry
If anyone feels like summarizing this i would appreciate, listening to 22 minutes of disappointment from a show i really respected since the day it came out is a pretty fat let down to my day
Summary; Tamakuz supports p3d0ph1lia, is a lol1con, a n@z1 suppremacist and just overall kind of a creep
@@JuniDrawz I respect you for not getting upset of over watch time/views from one person I didn't actually think you'd respond. But damn that's such disappointment and I was really excited to see where this idea was going, I'll definitely watch this once I get over this but thank you for the heads up!
thank you so so much for making this video, i’m so so grateful for the time you put into your research i had intentions to post fanart of his show online and it glad i saw your video before supporting such a horrible person through fanart, genuinely thank you so so much
The fact that no one made a video about Tamakuz despite everything they did is sad
I knew of the "not zee" illustration and glorifying toxic relationship parts but daaamn. :( stuff gets worse...
Yeah I wasn't really expecting that when it ACTUALLY came up 😭💀 especially the skin c@rving??!?? Wtf,,
Everything else is valid but I don't believe the Nun art is that deep. Artists have sexualized many characters as Nuns/Priests before. I won't deny that it's most definately controversial at the very least, but this is just my opinion and the arguments depends on someones beliefs.
I 100% agree٫ Its always been a thing tbh٫ but i added it in js bcz if i didnt some1 would say I forgot it hehe
Coming from a Christian I do find it very disgusting. I know its been a thing for a while but they're literally women who devote themselves to God and taking that away from them is just awful. It's kind of like sexualising hijabs. The whole point is not to be and to show their devotion to God. As someone who's passionate about my religion it does feel very gross to see
Im drowning in disappointment and the revelation of the romanticized portrayal Lolita in Psycho Cuties. As an avid Nabokov enjoyer it disgusts me when any romanticozation of Lolita comes to play. To make this even worse in some degree Psycho Cuties was actually helping me cope with abuse I had faced previously and that just threw me off man
You won’t believe how normalized this kind of stuff is among anime fans in Russia/ CIS countries…
Trust me im russian٫ i get it its insane sometimes 😭
I found about psycho cuties when it had just came out, And I was honestly pretty amazed by it, I didn’t know about all this things and I had honestly thought it was just a choice of style on how old ushka looked, since some artists do that. I honestly was expecting a story where Ushka like escaped or confronted the doctor about it but uhh given the circumstances I think the story wants to lean into the toxicity.
Thank you for informing us!! I hope this video stays the place it is at. Honestly pshyco cuties had some potential (story part, it’s original and such) , but again that’s just my opinion. Thank you!!
I only watched one video of there's because it was on my RUclips reccomend and saw it, but after watching this, I'm deeply and utterly shocked, disappointed and disgusted all at the same time! How do they sleep at night doing this?!
Honestly i agree with everything but i also heard she is getting stalked 😭 It was a russian video i didnt understand most of it💀
Anyways most people from russia is probably supporting her the most especially japan (lolitas ofc)
I honestly love her work but im disappointed of her actions
if shes able 2 change i would at least appreciate that bcs damn u really lost a beautiful art work 2 waste of ur fantasies
Hopefully there isnt more people like this who has a massive fandom😭 Bcs at this point i lost faith in humanity
Thanks for talking about this bc since no one is talking about it, I thought I was bullshitting
I’m so glad someone talked about this! I was scrolling on Pinterest when I came across that exact Nun AU fanart and was extremely disgusted. A few days earlier I had found the Elevator Man fan animation and even seeing just how these two characters were depicted made me feel uncomfortable. Anyone with a conscience and the ability to understand the implications of Dr. Masikir (I think that’s how you spell it) and Ushka’s relationship can clearly tell there is a SIGNIFICANT age gap. When I first saw the Elevator Man fan animation I recognized just how young Ushka looked. I’m so glad this video exists so I don’t have to sit here and question my feelings about how weird this whole thing is.
A few days ago my friend showed me and talked about psychocuties I did find it interesting and watched the elevator video and found it a bit strange due to ushka's human appearance being a bit younger despite her being a fresh 18 year old. My friend told me that tamakuz were a bit problematic but still liked the art style of the series. I looked more into the series and stumbled across this video and now I'm disgusted of the things tamakuz did. I tried to reason with my friend how they shouldn't be so mesmerized by the cute art when its romanticizing abuse. Luckily she understands but I'm worried for them.
+ my friend can like the show but they don't support the problematic stuff which is good
I am really glad that someone else is talking about this too,the way i watched both the animations and already felt extremely weird was off settling.
Thank you so so SO much for covering this topic!! I heard on tiktok about all of the disgusting shit (the n@z! arts, l0lita etc.), which i already found disgusting, but i did not expect it to go this far. You are an absolute gem, spending 16 hours on research. I really hope more people will find this video, because you covered everything so well!!
THANK YOU, FINALLY SOMEONE TALKS ABOUT PSYCHO CUTIES
Trying to figure out if this is oc lore or Twitter drama
tamakuz has done a lot of bad stuff but alot of stuff mentioned is oc lore, and a lot of it is in mistranslation (russian to english), not defending tamakuz btw js clarifying
Im so glad you made this video, I got into psycho cuties but felt that the relationship between those two was creepy and every time I saw a post about psycho cuties there was always a comment saying that the creator was a weirdo, and then another comment defending them. Now I now what’s true and false, thank you and to hell with this series.
Wait, why am I in the description?
Probably for your eng vid of the show
YARLI GET OUT OF HERE
@@viviansousis4620Hm? Why?
It’s credits for the images you posted on the nazi stuff
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR BRINGING THIS SUBJECT TO LIGHT. People I used to be friends with absolutely love this story and I've found it revolting, to say the least. I don't like Psychocuties and I can't be around the people who enjoy it.
“A little hood and some cute cat ears 😙 Not as cute as the next level… 😬” made me laugh WAY harder than it should’ve lol
really? a creator makes an explicitly problematic piece and ya'll are surprised they have problematic art?
Someone in the comments mentioned that artist is also pro-war, and if anyone has evidence or just can confirm, please do, because i personally never heard of it before today.
when I heard Yarlixen I gasped cause im in their discord server and didn't expect to see them here, they are working on their own iceberg and it should be releasing here around mid august ^^
hehehehe yes I am in contact with them they are very sweet :)
Yikes, and yeah. The more you know.
There's been other media where the villains are either revealed to be antiheros or comic relief in their actions. What Tamakuz is doing looks like NONE of that! Hope she gets good help in the future.
Mythical Recommended page pull
idk if it's just me slowly being the most problematic person bc i'm also an msi fan like them.. but i wasn't like shocked or smt bc i think im just really used to people being like this but i mean i don't mind with ppl buying.. weird.. things EXCEPT if they go out and do those things to others and try to hurt others or use an image of A REAL PERSON and get weird with it like ok be weird asf but don't get other people involved
I didnt realize that anyone still looked at psycho cuties but im genuinely so glad this video was made because i didnt have a full extent on how much the creator sucks and is weird, thank you for the education 🙏
( 9:16 ) the green guy's name is butterscotch ( i think ^_^ )
Ita great you speak up about this, people will support terrible people just ebcaude there art is "good" or the creator is "hot" etc but my jaw DROPPED on the Lolita art. It sickens me
After much consideration, the Cheese Council has decided that TAMAKUZ has earned the tittle of "'NOT Cool Beans"
bro i just saw the iceberg and went literally to the bottom when i saw the topics my jaw dropped bruhhh
Hey uhhh psychotic and psychopathic describe different things? Psychosis is a type of unstable grip on reality and usually doesn’t involve violence, and psychotic people are more likely to be victims of violence. Psychopathy is a type of ASPD, which does make people do bad things. But a lot of people consider this stigmatization! People with ASPD aren’t all evil criminals
I dont think I even talked abt this in the video 😭?
@@JuniDrawz you described the doctor as both of these in tier one
@@almondthefurret6818Hey... Person with ASPD here! Psychopathy doesn't exist anymore as a professional term, there are like two types of ASPD, but they aren't called "sociopathy" and "psychopathy". Those were used by ableist psychologists back then. They aren't used anymore because they are judgemental.
@@mittag983 OH I was so close tysm
@@almondthefurret6818 You're welcome, just be careful what you spread next time lmao. I can understand the confusion though. Media treats ASPD like psychopathy is still a term and you seem young. No one's fault here.
i used to love this omg😭i had only seen a few things about it and loved the art... thanks for making this
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO BUT I LOVE THE CHARACTERS DESG 😭😭
Hey new video!! I just finished the fanart , and I'm gonna post it on my community post when i finish watching :3
AWW WHAT THATS SO COOL THANK YUUU YOU CAN ALSO POST IT ON OUR SERVERRR :333
Thank god I saw this after watching the episode.. I was about to become a fan of them. This is absolutely disgusting.
actually I've known tmkz for a long time and since im, well, a ru-speaking critter i know a shite ton of stuff about her art
at least about her art until 22-23? stopped following her somewhere around that time bc well
her style is indeed cool but the themes creeped me out more and more :")
although i remember her or some of her friends or followers (i forgor) saying that psychonya is not romanticizing certain themes i simply cannot sence that? it's not some exaggeration for funsies (i for one cannot understand how could anyone treat such themes as fun ones but well people can laugh at anything so-) nor is it a satire or sth like that
it really DOES feel like romanticizing
and it truly is gross
so uhm
not sure how to end this, just wanted to say that i prolly know too much info for my liking x)
also thanks for the video, it was interesting to listen about a ru creator in English, even if the creator in question isn't the one i'm fond of :D
The blue guys name is buttercup and masakirks age is 22-25 I hope this helps good video btw love your avatar❤❤🎉🎉
oh my gosh, my flabbers are gasted, until a couple days ago i only knew of the music video, i was kind of creeped out by dr masacrik but felt relieved knowing that ushka wasnt a kid. but wow i thought the thing was creepy but not THAT creepy, tysm for this vid
i dont even know anyone involved but im watching all of this 😭
