Early Life
Ashley Hanrahan (also know as Noriko Hatakeyama in online spaces) was born in the US, due to her dad being overseas as he was a US Navy, her parents split apart when she was only 4 years old, causing her to live with her neglectful mother for 6 years. Her mothers neglectfulness led her to taking care of herself and her little brother from cooking and cleaning the house.
During her elementary life, she would constantly move which made it difficult for her to make friends, and her classmates would often avoid interacting with her which was one of the stepping stones in leading her to become a shut in.
At the end of elementary, Ashley moved in with her dad, with him introducing her to the internet with her interest with the amount of things she was able to do and with who she could be, and this was when her online persona "Noriko" was born.
Her Internet Journey
In 2007, she met a person online named "Slater" he was also a producer. Slater and Ashley then started an online relationship which was toxic and unhealthy due to Slater cheating on Ashley on multiple occasions.
Then in Early 2010, 16 year old Ashley Hanrahan created her YouTube channel "zombiebeatz2000" on March 19, 2006 with her early videos being AMVs, which then she started vlogging. She also is more know as "Hiki-chan" an abbreviation of hikikomori which is a Japanese term for shut ins. She would often vlog about random topics, such as her interests (Anime and Japanese culture) and her personal life (most of the vlogs are now lost media).
But her most notable topics was her talking about her mental health and how it was declining, which resonated with alot of people at the time which led her to have the popularity she has now, 16 years later.
These being some of her popular videos, although most of her other videos are just her goofing around and talking about anime.
On January 27, 2010, Ashley uploaded a video titled "i am lonely" (which for some reason is deleted) followed up by another video on February 1, 2010 which is her talking about her doctors appointment and her getting bullied in school (she can barely articulate in these videos which is the reason why she was being bullied at the time), this was a reason why she preferred staying at home on the internet rather than going to school, but she adds in the description
"I would love to be a regular person and do school like everyone else does. No, i do not want to be a Hollister wearing clone but i would atleast like to have and be happy.", following up with
"If you have hallucinations, depression, isolation, something dksjf whatever it is and stuff just tell me about it because i want to fine more people like me."
she also talks about self harm and "dry blood" on her keyboard which was most likely due to her hallucinations. In an update video, she talks about how shes improved with her medications and getting 100% on her math test.
In early 2011, Ashley Hanrahan lost her access to the "zombiebeatz2000" YouTube channel, but after a short while Ashley made the account "37564nadeshiko" which she uploaded on for only 3 days and left entirely.
4CHAN DOXXING ERA
(Im sure all of you know what kind of hellhole 4chan is so you know shit gets bad
)
On the 23rd of October, 2011, a user on 4chan made a thread on /a/board talking about how Ashley has gotten better and talks about her "secret youtube channel". This person most likely knew Ashlet irl or was jsut close with her.
Ashley made a lot of threads on /b/board, mainly asking advice from other users and mentioned a few times that she was homeless, which she explains how she became homeless.
Post by Ashley in 2016, which people then started giving her advice on how to fix her situation. (her family abandoned her due to her quitting her full time job and "abandoning a perfect life")
On July 26, 2016, Ashley made a post on /r9k/ with a picture holding a sign with the words "its 3 in the god damn morning, /r9k/"
This was the image, it was deleted shortly after posting.
And for some reason /r9k/ got really pissed at Ashley, and around this time (mid 2017) 8chans "/b/board" started to find out about Ashley and her YouTube channel. Multiple threads were then created on December 1, 2017, one of them by a user who made a thread on /b/board doxxing her and exposing her personal information, which led even more users trying to pry into her life more and more, but luckily she privated all her social media back in July of that year.
After the posts on December 1, users then made threads discussing about Ashley, with most people having mixed feelings about her since she was a female NEET, and her supporters started calling Ashley multiple titles such as, The NEET Queen, Queen of the NEETs, but most people just called her "Hiki-chan".
The people who were annoyed by the amount of threads for Ashley began terminating any thread that talked or mentioned her, which led to the creation of "Ashley Internet Defense Service" or A.I.D.S for short to protect the threads from trolls and harrasment
She started dying down in popularity but threads talking about her popped up once in a while and she was still generally considered as the "Female NEET Icon" by many.
REDDIT ERA
In July 2018, a user named "CrossCables" made a post on r/DeepIntoYoutTube with a video of Ashleys "Mental health takes a toll" video. This post went on to
200 replies and 1 THOUSAND upvotes.
Users on reddit began questioning her whereabouts and started digging up information about Ashley, but some users called Ashleys friends to warn her about potential doxxing attempts like on 4chan and 8chan, then 4chan and 8chan users explained to the reddit users about their obsession with these types of people on the internet.
The Last Chapter
On January 18, 2019, users on /b/board found Ashleys curiouscat.me account named velfarre2000, curiouscat.me website where you can ask users questions and they can respond to them, and surprisingly, Ashley was still active on this website. Users on /b/board decided to start asking Ashley questions and Ashley actually responded to them
Most questions were about how she was doing with her life and what to do to stop being a NEET, but eventually trolls started asking inappropriate questions which led Ashley to take her account down. This raid lasted for 2 weeks.
Her fans were pretty mad at the trolls for making her delete her account and made statements like these to the trolls lol
Then on December 5th, 2019 a user on YouTube named Benny Wilson responded to some people on a video about Ashley and claimed he knew her in real life and mentioned that he didnt like her at all, but most people were skeptical, that was untill Benny leaked photos of Ashley getting married which confirmed she escaped the femcel and NEET era of her life.
A photo that benny posted
Obviously people started confronting Benny on why he would just dox her wedding photos and he just had shitty defenses calling her a dog and such so it was clear that Benny was just a person who was jealous and hated Ashley irl
This ending had mixed reactions for alot of people as some were happy she ended up happy but some felt betrayed that their NEET idol didnt stay as a NEET and ended up getting married lol.
The remaining recent stuff left about her after this period was that she was into LARPing the Ukraine war by dressing up in military outfits with the Ukraine flag and shooting guns in a forest.
Yeah thats about it, i made this thread because i was super interested in this story and went to some subreddits and a video about this topic but i know 99% of people are gonna DNR this thread
