Controversies – What Happened to Reina Scully? Death Rumors
In 2018, Reina became a part of an internet controversy, after reacting to an online video posted by another popular YouTube personality – Logan Paul – in which he performed a lot of what would be considered disrespectful acts while in Japan. Even in the video, he filmed what looked to be a dead body in a notorious Japanese forest, which is known to be a place where many suicides occur. In a YouTube video, Reina stated how he took part in problematic and insulting acts to the people of Japan. Her reaction also mainly came because she was born in Japan, and covers a lot of the aspects of the country in her YouTube channel.
The video caused a whirlwind on social media, where numerous Logan Paul fans started insulting Scully through the use of racist comments and other insults, which she later posted to the public. Many of Reina’s supporters and other people on the internet defended her claim, saying that it was the right thing to do and that Logan Paul should be banned from making any online content. Logan Paul fans started posting death threats and also spread rumors that Reina had died, a rumor that she quickly shot down by posting on social media.
Early Life – Starting Out on YouTube
Scully started becoming active online in 2010 when she joined Twitter, but it wasn’t until a few years later that she started her own YouTube channel on the video sharing website.

Scully’s Real Name – Personal Life
Reina’s real name has been in speculation for a long time, as she later confirmed on Twitter that “Reina Scully” is a career name and not her real name. This was an answer to a question on why her name isn’t in kanji since she’s Japanese. Other websites have stated that her real last name is Suzuki and the reason why she took the name Scully is because of her love for the television series entitled “X-Files”.
In 2014, she then announced that she had become engaged to gamer Michael Flusk – they married two years later. According to social media, the proposal happened in front of Reina’s family, and they would have a traditional Japanese wedding which was posted on YouTube and Twitter.
