On September 15th, 2018, Jennifer Sawtelle, a girl on Twitter who goes by the handle "Luffy No Umi" claimed that FOW had done several things to harm her in 2016, including making many sexual acts towards her without her consent, making extremely harsh comments towards her such as "No, I only kiss people who I love," and insulting his friends and even his own girlfriend that he allegedly cheated on. As evidence for these claims, Jennifer provided screenshots from a Discord chat that she had with FOW. While FOW confirmed that the screenshots were real, he denied these claims and has said that he "needed to share his side of the story since the screenshots were out of context." <ref>[http://www.twitlonger.com/show/n_1sqlhg4]</ref> <ref>[https://twitter.com/fowskate/status/1040795101193109505]</ref> <ref>https://twitter.com/fowskate/status/1040793404764897280</ref> | On September 15th, 2018, Jennifer Sawtelle, a girl on Twitter who goes by the handle "Luffy No Umi" claimed that FOW had done several things to harm her in 2016, including making many sexual acts towards her without her consent, making extremely harsh comments towards her such as "No, I only kiss people who I love," and insulting his friends and even his own girlfriend that he allegedly cheated on.

A few days later, on September 20th, 2018, Hita, FOW's | A few days later, on September 20th, 2018, Hita, one of FOW's friends who was mentioned in Sawtelle's posts, came out and confirmed FOW's statement that the posts were taken out of context. In a Google Document, she stated that Jennifer had manipulated the story, adding in stories such as the sexual abuse, and that the sexual relationship between Jennifer and FOW was consensual. She also confirmed FOW's statement that the Discord screenshots were just role play between Sawtelle and him. Hita believed that the only reason Jennifer released the screenshots was because she was upset that FOW didn't return his feelings towards her. To support her claim, Hita provided her own Discord screenshots of conversations between her, Jennifer, and FOW, and pointed out specific statements, as well as analyzing the conversation.<ref>https://docs.google.com/document/d/1fOS1AszKAdHy-lb4jyfPSmxxMhCl64lEljqjAO5sPCU/edit</ref> | ||
On the same day, Sean Lazarus, the head of [[Tournament:Shine Con 2018|Shine Con]], released his statement, stating that FOW had almost been assaulted over the false accusations and that he and FOW tried to reason with Jennifer on releasing the statements. He noted that, initially, her charges had nothing to do with sexual harassment or assault, and that she also agreed to drop the charges, however, she later changed her mind. Lazarus also noted that Jennifer was 18 at the time of her encounter with FOW, while her posts have implied that she was underaged. Lazarus has provided screenshots of a conversation between him and Jennifer which further backs up his statement. <ref>https://twitter.com/Afrokunsenpai/status/1042895453203849216</ref> | On the same day, Sean Lazarus, the head of [[Tournament:Shine Con 2018|Shine Con]], released his statement, stating that FOW had almost been assaulted over the false accusations and that he and FOW tried to reason with Jennifer on releasing the statements.
