While playing League of Legends on her latest stream, Emiru read an offensive comment in her Twitch chat. The viewer stated that the streamer did not sound Asian enough. Schunk, who is half Chinese and half German-American, was initially taken aback by the remark:

Visibly annoyed, she responded by saying a few phrases in Mandarin to prove her 'Asian-ness' to the viewer.

The streamer translated, "How are you? One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten". Her Twitch chat, the majority of which did not understand her message, was surprised by the sudden outburst. Satisfied with her comeback, Emiru continued her game with a smug face.

She did not comment further on the viewer's remark or its offensive nature.

Redditors called out the offensive remark made by the viewer during Emiru's stream, with some even discussing their own experiences of facing similar types of comments. On a lighter note, others called Emiru's reaction hilarious, pointing out her elementary-level Mandarin phrases.
