​@@mugenusv8290 more like a wall....

@@andrewidkidc559 u got it right.....

Round table lost gallahad

Nonono, it's the other way around, she'll always be Friend A.

Yeah bro, due to family member health problem, she need to leave her job to take care of them I assume. F in the chat...

Yeah, hope the family members are getting healthy, and a chan will come back to hololive as a special talent, that'll be awesome

Yeah... i just found out she's leaving through this clip as well. F

FYI that's just typical Japanese corporate jargon, there's no sick family members but they always like to give a graceful reason to quit

@@Forakus she has been on a sudden 3 month leave because of this family matter man, it was scheduled already for her to come back in july but she just announced that the family situation is not improving, hence this whole thing

There might be a chance she comes back when the family member health changes, for better (or worse :( ).

@@cloudsteele1989 in all honesty, she actually can. so let's just pray her good health and hope there's nothing too bad happening within her family.

Um, why? She's like 50x lower on the totem pole lol in terms of management

​@@OC.TINYYY bro, she is one of the three founders of Cover corporation. Without her, there wouldn't be Cover or Hololive or Holostars Cover corporation is like born from her mind. She was the one who pitched the Idea to Yagoo.

honestly, considering how long they've been doing it, it wouldn't be weird for people from gen 0 to gen 2 to decide to graduate as well, they've been doing it for years. it just a matter of when because it's coming, it's impressive for a chan who are not even one of the talents to stay this long in a company, she did so well during her stay.

@@pandora3309 Yeah, but man, just the thought of Sora or any of the other members graduating scares me, but if they do decide to leave then I fully support their decision.

I just hope it's a mid level vtuber company fishing her to become an executive and not the horrible reason she's given. Quitting a pretty good job for a family member that's sick is just horrible. It means the family member is extremely close(parents, a partner or a sibling or even a kid) and is pretty screwed. I remember my cousin working through her 3yo's leukemia as a single parent. So shit's gotta be serious.

The sad thing is that A-chan has been gone for 3 months to care for a family member, and is now leaving Cover. While I don't trust the nuance of an unofficial translation of her posted notice, it's not hard to imagine that rather than choosing to leave, the amount of care her family member needs forced her to.

@@pandora3309 Actually is not weird to stay in the same company for 10 or 20 years, of course content creation is tricky because the tasks aren't always clear, you gotta come up with stuff to do yourself and that doesn't always work, but all I'm saying is that I don't think they will leave unless they're not having fun anymore (or maybe they find something else they want to try) or something urgent happens, and even if they do partially they can keep doing stuff like music or merch

I doubt Sora will stay after this. She'll probably be graduating by the end of the year to reunite w/ A-chan. It's clear management didn't want to pay a-chan any further while she was on her extended vacation due to family reasons. So she left. She unfortunately didn't bring in residual income like Gura & Hachama when they went a year long hiatus, thus, they had no reason to keep her around on the balance sheet.

@@OC.TINYYY Stop with the ridiculous speculation, bro. Them not paying her does not make for a very good reason to provoke her to leave. It would be the exact same situation with any other job, which is literally, if you don't work, how do you get paid? Why would A-chan, who has loved this job for 7 years, leave just because she wasn't getting paid for no work? Obviously, she'll likely pursue some type of other career path now, but whether or not they brought them residual income is not the only benefit a person of her status and experience provides to Cover. Her presence alone literally carried Hololive in so many ways, and money is likely the least of Cover's issues considering their success. They have always put the talents' health first, so why would A-chan be an exception?

​@@OC.TINYYYAh here we go with your ridiculous bs claims for no good reason. Like not only that is bs but you have no proof. Besides Sora would have left immediately if that was the ridiculous case. It didn't happen.

damn 😭

*happened

@@tapiokadesu8505 right, thank you

or you can smile AND cry, because crying is part of your emotions, and you should feel your emotions. That quote is garbage.

I can't smile this out one bros.........

What is it with Junes and hard hitting graduations man?

Press deeznuts stop saying press f

2024 is a disaster. And even worse, Mel's termination still haunts me.

@@MrJoker190 At least Rica-ch is really cute and doing very well :)

It sucks but that's life. Sometimes no matter how well you do, you get slammed by forces waaaay outside of your control, and the best you can do is push forward. I'm sure A-chan didn't want to resign, but her job wants probably have no weight on the matter. I just hope she stays well and maintains contact with her old workmates.

Yeah, it's kinda like Sana's situation. Although Sana was the Idol talent, the reason for leaving is kinda similar, but instead of her own health issues, it's one of her family's.

I don't know about JP, but in the US and EU it's pretty common for a business to rehire a former employee who left in good standing if they want to come back, provided there's space in the roster (and management isn't mad that they left regardless of their performance or company standing). At the rate they're growing, I don't expect it would be particularly difficult, if/when she's able to return (provided she wants to).

Well, she CREATED hololive for Sora, so I hope COVER doesn't forget her.

It's kinda happening even now. HoloJustice (the newest Hololive English gen) never had a change to officially collab with A-chan (they probably talked once or two with A-chan, but zero official collabs as talents).

Nope, other channels have talked about it already

It's real, bruh.

The reason for A-Chan's absence was known back in March already when she announced it, which was the exact same family situation mentioned. Unfortunately it looks like the situation isn't going to get better soon, which is why she's retiring now.

I'm just thinking of her in suisei's SSS from way back and I'm actually tearing up 😭

She's practically one of the founders as well

Yes, and has known for a long time. Sora might have even helped her decide to retire. I'm sure It would be hard to leave, even to look after a family member, but having your friend tell you it's okay to go would certainly help.

Never stop 'liking' things. Everything ends, and new things will start.

​@@cloudsteele1989 Yea, you are right, but I feel like cursed lol. It feels like I can't have fun for too long. Thank you, I will try to not stop liking things.

Hu? Sora will most be graduating soon after this. I give it around 6 months.

Probably Nodoka-chan :)
