I watch CoryxKenshin myself, and he's a great role model. He's caring, helpful, and heavily religious. He puts bible verses in the outro of his videos and mentions God whenever speaking about his success on YouTube. There are some moments where his views can get a little inappropriate. In some of his freestyles, he mentions women twerking and booties. He also makes moaning noises when he eats something good, and in some of the video games that he plays, there's cussing, gore, and violence. He censors inappropriate things shown most of the time. Overall, I believe he's suitable for mature 11-year-olds and older kids.

Cory's enthusiastic and silly attitude makes all the difference when you're watching him fight off scary villains in video games. CoryxKenshin's content is engaging and funny, even if you're not a gamer. He offers so much more on his channel, like a weekly series called "Spooky Scary Sundays" where he reacts to short films sent in by viewers and "Try Not To Laugh" challenges or hot sauce eating challenges. YouTube collaborators like Dashie, Berleezy, and Poiised keep the content even more interesting. As a Black gamer, Cory's positive role model and brings representation to the YouTube gaming community, mentioning his experience as a Black creator to relate to his audience. He spreads positive messages like treating others with kindness, he hosts fundraisers for those in need, and stands by his values and morals. Righteousness, courage, compassion, honor, and honesty are just some of the values Cory thinks he and his community should strive for. Yes, there's a lot of advertising and graphic video games, but this channel feels like a community and a breath of fresh air from the more problematic "Let's Play" content out there

Did we miss something on diversity?

Research shows a connection between kids' healthy self-esteem and positive portrayals in media. That's why we've added a new "Diverse Representations" section to our reviews that will be rolling out on an ongoing basis. You can help us help kids by suggesting a diversity update.
