A statement from D4vd's manager from your link:

“This video is false and the person is misinformed. This is the only time I’ll speak on this matter. FOR NOW. This has been a tough time for my family as I am a father of 3 children. I received no emails and I’m no one’s room mate, I live full time at home with my wife and kids. My daughter is 14 and this news is affecting so many lives. I never received any emails. I had zero knowledge of anything and I don’t live in California. Also I work remotely 95% of the time and my job doesn’t require me to have much interaction with any of my clients/David, as there are many others that work with him on a day to day capacity, not me. This news is tragic for so many and for her family. I hope the proper authorities get to the bottom of it soon. Let me remind people a lot of this is speculation and alleged. In the meantime, I am with my family helping them emotionally get through the news of this tragedy. Please report on factual information.”

So hypothetically, if he is completely innocent and someone else has done this..

Should someone report HIM missing?
When was last proof of life?

What if they've do one something to him too but because it looks like he did it and he's in hiding no one's realised?

Just another thought since he's nowhere to be found. IMOO

Really hoping LE has eyes on him......

His sheltered (he was home schooled and has shared how it has impacted his ability to express himself with others) childhood opened up the world of anime to him and he has shared how much he likes things Japanese. He's toured Japan a bunch. Itami and the corresponding anime were part of his Persona (which is also another video game). In the anime he had created there is a scene where the girl loses a limb. The girl depicted has long wavy hair. It's eerie.

One thing I have noticed is that Japanese pop culture is much bigger with younger generations than with older ones. I am middle-aged, I guess, 45; people in their 20s have grown up with Japanese anime and manga and pop music as huge influences in ways that would have been unthinkable. In my generation, Japanese pop culture was not nearly so mainstream.

This creator/musician is HUGE. The next Big Thing. Just because we don't know about it doesn't mean he wasn't skyrocketing... a huge cash cow for Josh the Manager.... he even played at Josh's wedding in Italy and his parents were in attendance. He had cross promo with Crocs.. fortnite.... other huge companies and they're all on hold. For now.
His Fandom seems to stand by him vehemently.

I am not sure about that. Until the subreddit was locked down, everyone posting there was condemning him. The reactions I have seen on social media have been hostile and disbelieving.

I am sure that some of his fans do not want to believe it. That is a different thing.

The detectives and the district attorney are going to have to find actual evidence linking him to a homicide, first.

He is not a POI and we should not be assuming that he's guilty. Case law on mens rea is pretty broad. Whoever put her in the trunk of the car did so because they were trying to hide something and were capable of operating the trunk and getting a black plastic bag and squeezing her in there (alive or dead).

As far as we know, DB was able to pack, get himself to an airport and perform several times right after.

IMO

And right now, we do not know enough. For all we know, someone around him may have found Celeste after she overdosed or something and took it on themself to hide her body really badly.

Yes I grew up in Japan and USA and today seeing so many American children and young adults at the LA "Anime expo" celebrating Japanese anime is amazing to me.

Re: subreddits... there are many other alt subreddits now where they have all intentionally migrated to discuss the injustice of the court of public opinion. If you look hard enough there are many die hard fans who are not hearing Rational Thought. (I've seen it, I've tried to participate but it is too exasperating)

These are VERY young fans (I know some of these kids, including mine)---- aged 14-19. IF this ends up being anything like "young fan /who could have been a love interest of D was found deceased and possibly was a victim of an overdose".... the Fandom absolutely won't bat an eyelash and he will continue to have a vibrant career. My opinion. Trying to think of a parallel.... actor Matthew Broderick was in a vehicle accident in Ireland that killed 2 women. (Ended up on the wrong side of the road.) It did nothing to tarnish his stardom. Alec Baldwin.... Scot free after shooing Halyna Hutchins..... rocker Vince Neil ... caused a car death... Caitlin Jenner... killed someone w her car... none of the above have served time for what they did and continued to Be Famous.
