PewDiePie takes shots at Logan Paul after visiting forest in Japan PewDiePie, Logan Paul Vlogs – YouTubeYouTube king Felix \u2018PewDiePie\u2019 Kjellberg traveled to Japan on holiday in late March, prompting a hilarious jab toward controversial YouTuber Logan Paul in the process. PewDiePie talked about his trip to Kamakura\u2019s bamboo forest in an episode of LWIAY on April 6, where he threw some not-so-subtle shade toward Paul for his infamous debacle in Japan\u2019s Aokigahara \u2018Suicide Forest\u2019 in early 2018. \u201cIt didn\u2019t hit me when I went there until afterwards,\u201d he said of his Kamakura venture. \u201c\u2026surprisingly, we made it out. No controversies. Controversy averted. Thank you very much, Logan Paul, for taking one for the team.\u201d [Timestamp: 1:40 for mobile viewers] Same country, different forest It is worth noting that PewDiePie didn\u2019t visit the same forest as Logan Paul; Kjellberg instead visited Kamakura\u2019s H\u014dkoku-ji temple, also known as the \u2018Bamboo Temple,\u2019 due to the luscious bamboo garden that extends throughout the area. The thumbnail and title of PewDiePie\u2019s video even appear to allude to Paul\u2019s 2018 incident, although Kjellberg admitted that he hadn\u2019t realized the similarities between the two at the time. PewDiePie\u2019s previous disses toward Logan Paul This wouldn\u2019t be the first time PewDiePie has taken shots at Logan Paul, either; the YouTube king appeared to diss Paul\u2019s response to his battle against T-Series in December 2018, after Paul required he wear a Maverick hoodie in return for his help. PewDiePie admitted that he hadn\u2019t given Paul his home address for the merchandise, and even compared the sub gap between his channel and that of T-Series during the time of Paul\u2019s efforts to those of Markiplier, who saved him with a last-minute livestream on December 3. [Timestamp: 0:47 for mobile viewers] Speaking out on Paul\u2019s \u201cgoing gay\u201d controversy However, PewDiePie has likewise shown sympathy to Paul in the past, appearing to take up for the YouTuber after claiming he would \u201cgo gay\u201d for the month of March as part of his New Year\u2019s resolution. \u201c\u2026I don\u2019t know, man,\u201d PewDiePie said of the debacle. \u201c\u2018Male Only March.\u2019 Was that it? It\u2019s such a stupid joke. Is that really worth getting that upset about?\u201d [Timestamp: 1:51 for mobile viewers] Since then, PewDiePie has reached a record-breaking 93 million subscribers on YouTube, after seemingly being defeated by T-Series in late March. Upon releasing his \u2018Congratulations\u2019 diss track against the Bollywood label, PewDiePie\u2019s subscriber count skyrocketed, now sitting at over 400,000 above T-Series as of April 6.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
