Rahmat Wibowo cast himself as an anime hero against Ibrahim Arief as a 'manipulator', called him 'Ibangsut' and mocked the #KawalIbam site live

Commentary

He published it on YouTube on 21 October 2026. Minute links open the video at that point.

  • Hero and villain. He opens the livestream by casting himself as Ichigo, the hero of the anime Bleach, and Ibrahim Arief as its villain Aizen, “a manipulator creating an illusion of truth”, then sings the show’s theme (minute 0–2). The series title is “Kawal Ibam ke Penjara” (“Escort Ibam to prison”), a play on the #KawalIbam campaign supporting Ibrahim.
  • “Ibangsut.” Reading the #KawalIbam site, he calls Ibrahim “Mas Ibangsut”, a blend of his nickname Ibam and the swear word bangsat, and mocks his line about Indonesia’s red-and-white flag: “your blood is red, your bones are white” (minute 2–3). He again picks at the “Facebook London” mention, as he did a day later with Meta AI.
  • “Steering public opinion.” He calls the site “steering public opinion” because it is “all opinion” and testimonials, and says Ibrahim is bringing “the masses” to “gang up on the prosecutors” (minute 5–7). He says this in a livestream series built to turn his own audience against Ibrahim; see the next one on the same day.
