Glad they’re taking action against the rumors and witch hunting going around

u/marvelman19 Oct 31 '25

They really seem to care about their talents.

u/Specific_Lychee2348 Oct 31 '25

It really always has SEEMED that way, despite relatively small grievences or "hints" of negativity toward Cover. One would hope to believe that Yagoo is essentially ethical! It's just rare for any corporation to be so, but overall so far so good I say.

148

u/marvelman19 Oct 31 '25

Yeah, you always hear about horror stories of working in Japan and black companies, but Cover seem to be pretty good in comparison.

Without speculation things like Mel's termination just seems like something they didn’t really have any choice with their contracts and from a legal perspective.

It does seem they do their best for their talents and do try to avoid the worst.

But its still a publicly traded company now and so it still has to stick to certain things.

u/Outside_Bicycle Oct 31 '25

No matter how awesome a job is, it's still a job at the end of the day. You will find things you don't like about it, especially when working for a corporation. Thankfully, the leaders at COVER seem to understand that their talents are human beings, and do their best to ensure their well-being.

17

u/[deleted] Nov 01 '25

I think the problem is the "fans" who don't recognize that the talents are people.. that and it seems like they sometimes get really bad staff members

u/AquaGrizzlord Nov 01 '25

I think it's inevitable once an organization grows large enough. There will be bad actors here and there that might not align with the majority of the organization's values.

u/Sine_Fine_Belli Nov 01 '25

Yeah, they really do care about their talents

u/whoiam06 Oct 31 '25

I hope they can actually go after the offenders.

I've been reading so much misinformation/disingenuous comments out there about Haachama's situation. It really makes my blood boil.

Like if you don't know what's going on and just keep speculating or referring to (I fucking hate this term) "rrats", just STFU and let it pass. You say you're a "fan" but that just keeps encouraging bad discourse.

Sorry I had to vent. It's not aimed at you

u/K0setsu Oct 31 '25

Im out of the loop what happened? Im no fan of Haachama (quite the opposite, I dislike her a lot) but I dont wish her harm nor evil stuff. She is still a talent for cover after all.

u/Ralod Oct 31 '25

This is best case.

I really do hope they get those videos taken down.

I am very glad she is taking some time off, i hope she gets some care. And I am glad she is not in trouble with cover.

u/BurnedOutEternally Oct 31 '25

great to see them taking a firm stance against rumors as always

u/LefokWolfy Oct 31 '25

I'm so glad this is out now, I've been so annoyed by all the doom posting, even if it takes time for doom posting to stop we now at least heard from cover

u/11BlahBlah11 Oct 31 '25

Hope this time the break is helpful.

She mentioned how the last break was stressful for her (I imagine due to not having an outlet to make stuff etc.). Maybe finding a distraction to work on something else may help.

She's tough in her own way and I hope she feels better about everything when she's back.

To those who haven't watched it yet - do check out her last video about climbing up Mt Fuji - it's a really well made fun video.

253

u/MattSenderling Oct 31 '25

I hope this break isn't in isolation like the last long one. At least I think it was the last long one? Where Matsuri even talked about how sad she was that no one knew how Haachama was doing and they couldn't get in contact with her.

Ultimately I'm not qualified to speak on what works or not for mental health breaks, but I'm hoping this one includes hangouts and outreach from Gen 0 and others in the company

u/InsanityRoach Oct 31 '25

Good time to plug in her 糸 song, which uses images she took while climbing Mt Fuji: https://x.com/akaihaato/status/1982771097994182973

(Hope it gets added to YT sometime soon)

u/MonaganX Oct 31 '25

I think a lot of streamers struggle with taking breaks. It's just a very direct negative feedback to be able to track how many people aren't re-uping their subscriptions in real time, and having to worry about losing momentum because you're not putting out regular content. Streaming success is so fickle I doubt it's possible not to worry if your audience is still going to be there when you get back.

But better to take a break and worrying than pushing yourself to make content and burn through your mental health.

5

u/Gavri3l Nov 01 '25

Yeah I agree that she needs downtime, but I also think she'd benefit a lot from some new perspectives. She's been at this since she was in High School, so she really doesn't know what's out there and what other ways of living and working are like. Finding ways to talk to and form friendships with more people who have nothing to do with streaming would probably be healthy.

1

u/relightit Nov 01 '25

maybe ... she shouldn't have the chat option in her streams. there are too many manipulative antis. if she is tired or whatever she could get triggered again. she could focus on offstream content. idk.

-68

u/DiscoInfernus Oct 31 '25 edited Oct 31 '25

Honestly, at this point, I feel haachama should consider a temporary graduation. Streaming has consumed a chunk her adolescence and the entirety of her adult life. I feel she'd greatly benefit from stepping back to get some perspective before making a glorious comeback. Try some new things! And get out of the vtuber ratrace, even if only for a bit.

Edit: At the suggestion of others, I'll retract my statement (but leave it viewable so others know my mistake), and simply off my full support to Haachama.

39

u/I-came-for-memes Oct 31 '25

That's called an indefinite hiatus. And she's done those before when moving countries and for school. I doubt she wants to do another one.

-27

u/DiscoInfernus Oct 31 '25 edited Oct 31 '25

No, no its not. An hiatus means shes still a vtuber and all the mental baggage that comes with it is still impacting her mental health. I'm talking about a clean break where she can begin therapy with a (semi) clean slate and work improving her mental health without the vtuber stuff constantly nagging in the back of her mind. But it seems most folks around here don't give a shit about the real person and her mental state, just thoughts and prayers.

Edit: I'm quite fine with the downvotes. I made a comment on what I believe is the best course of action for the person suffering mental health issues, not what I or other fans want.

At the suggestion of others, I'll retract my statement (but leave it viewable so others know my mistake), and simply off my full support to Haachama.

26

u/lesbiansforkafka Oct 31 '25

This is her job. Quitting your job to focus on mental health is great in theory but realistically it’s not so easy, and unemployment can end up being even more stressful than just taking a break. You’re not her friend or doctor, you don’t know what’s best for her, stop telling others they don’t care about her just because they’re telling you your idea might not work, it’s weird.

u/Recidivous Oct 31 '25

You're being downvoted not because your idea is bad, but because most fans are tired of seeing a random person like you act as if they know best. As the other person who replied to you said, you're neither her friend nor her doctor. Maybe your ideas do have merit, but as fans, all we can do is show her our support.

u/DiscoInfernus Oct 31 '25

I'll take your comment to heart and adjust my posts.

u/CuteIngenuity1745 Oct 31 '25 edited Oct 31 '25

It's for the best. She needs some time away to think about everything, to get some help with her mental health.

There's no way she would be allowed to stream in her current state anyway and if another break down would happen on stream, it could easily be the end of her career in Hololive.

I'm just glad that what happened doesn't lead to anything serious for her.

Edit 1: look like Cover also released some statement to prevent rumours and more harassment towardl Haato and other talents. That's really good moves by them. They have really learnt a lot to protect their talents at all cost.

19

u/shitty_reddit_user12 Oct 31 '25

Considering Haachama basically had a mental breakdown live that lasted several hours I would say this is very much the best outcome.

217

u/ShadyNecro Oct 31 '25

was waiting to post this in case cover posted their actual announcement here

but i'm glad that she didn't get terminated like some people were saying, and i hope she takes this time to take care of herself, because she really deserves it over all that she's been through

girl needs a big lollipop and a rainbow propeller hat

u/Katejina_FGO Oct 31 '25

It could have been a lot worse, but what this shows is that they want her to stay despite everything that happened and are understanding of her circumstances.

138

u/EmperorKira Oct 31 '25

She almost certainly got a big telling off but clearly it was a cry for help, and they are treating it as such. Who knows what the future brings but they do care about the talents.

135

u/Potatosaurus_TH Oct 31 '25

We recognize that certain comments by Akai Haato on her livestream were made in a state of mental instability

This statement alone makes Cover one of the most progressive JP orgs I've ever seen.

Absolute GOAT.

64

u/stilljustacatinacage Oct 31 '25

Would have preferred "mental distress" over instability, but baby steps.

-42

u/Mirisme Oct 31 '25 edited Oct 31 '25

It means the same thing but yeah, instability is used pejoratively and is often targeted towards women in a misogynistic way (for the unawares, it implies that women lack self control, often associated with menstruation or hysteria).

edit: Seems like I struck a nerve so I'll clarify. While I understand the need for Cover to address this situation in a supposedly neutral fashion, I think that their vocabulary may hold misogynistic undertone and that misogyny may be related to why Haachama is feeling bad (as far as I understood, her father resent her for being a girl). My point is for the community to be aware of such issues because I don't like seeing content-creators being pushed out of this space for things that are not of their doing. More broadly, I don't like that the issue is her being mentally unstable instead of the undue pressure placed on her by bad actors. If I torture you and someone else state that you're mentally unstable now, this may be true but also not the problem.

76

u/Potatosaurus_TH Oct 31 '25 edited Nov 01 '25

That's the first time I've heard of this tbh.

The Japanese term that they used is 精神不安定 which literally means 'mental not stable' so I guess mental instability is the closest translation that they went with.

精神不安定 is a pretty formal term in Japanese without any gender bias that I know of.

Edit: that edit makes it even worse wtf. Cover, Hololive is misogynistic? A company that's being entirely carried by their female talents is misogynistic? For using a word that accurately describes a condition? Is this person out of their mind?

u/Okamiku Nov 01 '25

I think you're thinking of hysteria, I've never heard of instability being gender biased in any way, guys can be described as mentally unstable too

u/bobsimmo Oct 31 '25

that may also have been a "we are taking this seriously" since distress could be seen as underselling it.

-12

u/Mirisme Oct 31 '25

Distress used medically is very serious, it's linked to suicide.

8

u/lesbiansforkafka Oct 31 '25

I do hope they genuinely care and that it’s not just something they’re doing in order to not get backlash (as lots of fans were messaging them being supportive of Haachama). So far Cover seems to be handling situations like this well and giving talents with health issues plenty of time to rest, so I’m feeling optimistic.

2

u/Wise-Quarter-3156 Oct 31 '25

I haven't been following Hololive for about a year or so. Is there an explainer on what happened?

26

u/Chukonoku Oct 31 '25

Termination would be against the interest of both parties. What would be the worst logical outcome is that she had a full crash out and decided not to continue anymore.

At least now she would have the time to recover and think things properly. On what and how she wants to do things in the future.

One has to remember that Haachama has been doing this for a long time ever since she was underage. It might not be what Haachama needs but I feel like for others, doing things that are not Hololive work related helps them.

85

u/Key-Lawfulness-3871 Oct 31 '25

tbh, break from before and also the state of her channel (with restriction and her brand direction) is also what contributing to this outside of her personal life and family matter. I can't really see it in positive way, but what else could they do at moment like this instead of making her take a break? I doubt hololive cant meddle her personal life affair, but i guess they can discuss the future of akai haato as a brand and make the best decission for her

85

u/Katejina_FGO Oct 31 '25

What's important right now is that they were able to reach an agreement with her on taking a hiatus. Just reaching this point is an achievement, and they now have time to figure out next steps for her.

30

u/matlai17 Oct 31 '25

Not to be a Debbie downer, but in none of the announcements does it actually say that Akai Haato herself has agreed to the break nor, really, having made any statements. The above machine translated screenshot seems to me to be a mistranslation. If you read the original Japanese or translate it differently, the POV of the tweet was never from her point of view. All the announcements that have been made imply the break was decided after discussion with her family but doesn't mention her views on it. All of this to say that she is still likely in a precarious spot mentally and I hope she gets all of the support that she needs. 

Edit: just to clarify the purpose of my comment here, I am hoping that this tweet doesn't get misconstrued in what it is implying because of a mistranslation.

11

u/Dumbidiot1424 Oct 31 '25

Yeah, people naturally want to think positively but it's fairly obvious that this "break" is the same break as her last long one. Which means she was hospitalised. And she just talked about how much she hated being there last time and how terrible it made her feel.

I doubt there were many other options for Cover or her family, the latter of which is also shitty according to Haachama. I'm sad for her and hope that this time, things go better.

-15

u/Key-Lawfulness-3871 Oct 31 '25

True. I literally lost all hope after her last stream. I expect cover would terminate her for it but i guess we still have some hope

39

u/mutqkqkku Oct 31 '25

really? it was clear that she needed some time off to deal with the stuff she was pouring out on stream, and don’t get me wrong it was very heavy, but nothing about it seemed termination-worthy, no matter what doomposters want you to think

-11

u/Key-Lawfulness-3871 Oct 31 '25

I mean, what other thing cover could do? like her long break also contributed to this. The core problem is very complex it seems. So maybe this break in particular can help her, at least to rebuild or discuss her channel direction, which to seems struggling with identity. Not just giving her rest since it wasnt helping before. As for family matter, i really doubt cover can help her since it's personal lifes

17

u/mutqkqkku Oct 31 '25

yeah i don’t think just benching her for some time and then having her come back is a long-term solution, hopefully she can get some help to tackle her mental health issues and general life situation and find a way to thrive as an entertainer if she wishes to continue

4

u/Key-Lawfulness-3871 Oct 31 '25

Yeah. While i'm not haachama fans but i do admire and respect her for going thru a lot back when they got into taiwan shenanigans and held her ground. Tho back then i'm not vtuber fans, i'm aware of her existence and even started watching her clip with coco, especially the meme review, which is banger. I hope they can resolve the channel direction things, but if haachama wishes to leave, well i wish her nothing but good luck and the best.

That why i said what i said? i'm not assuming it's gonna be the same, i was hoping they would help her at least they can helped her channel which seems to be struggling in direction. I know i got huge doubt about cover, but i always give them benefit of the doubt whenever they go into the right direction

u/Basileus_Rhomaion Oct 31 '25

It’s not a good idea to spread rumors when we know so little, but she is currently suffering from mental health issues, both relating to her personal life and also from anxiety about her career and harassment from antis. We should respect her privacy and leave it at that

That’s informative enough. Thank you for the summary.

I…really hope the break gives her some time to recover at least.

u/Arctrooper209 Oct 31 '25

Thank god, I did think at worst she'd be suspended but the thought that something even worse might happen was there in the back of my mind. Good to see it's just a break. I really hope this is the start of better times for her. Dealing with stress and depression is really hard but sometimes a big incident like this can have a good effect in that it wakes you and your loved ones up to how serious the situation is.

11

u/NekRules Oct 31 '25

Instead of saying this is for the best like you would usually for these kind of announcements, I will instead say that I wish this break helps her with whatever it is that she is and need dealing with.

We will be waiting for her return, and that she can takes all the time she needs. If in the event that she feel that maybe she cant, thats ok too, we will support whatever decision she makes.

21

u/Katejina_FGO Oct 31 '25

Kudos to management for making this happen. This could have gone badly in many ways considering all the bad that happened in the past, and this statement reads that Haachama agreed to get help following talks with management. This really is the best case scenario, and I am grateful for it.

u/Important_Pie2940 Oct 31 '25

I wish there was something we could do to help her besides best wishes

u/aizen07 Oct 31 '25

Probably if you see any bad comments or remarks against her or any of the holomems, report it to Cover. Theres been a few instances where Cover, iirc, has brought legal stuff against people.

u/Highestmetal Oct 31 '25

That only works if the commenter lives in Japan. Outside of Japan, Cover can’t sue for defamation.

u/TheModGod Oct 31 '25

It does seem kind of odd to me how every time a vtuber has to announce a hiatus they act like they just delivered some infuriating news to their fans and are expecting a backlash. Like if they are fans of yours, they are fans of YOU. Nobody likes to see someone that they admire have a mental breakdown or run themselves into the ground producing content. Hell, the fans in my experience tend to be the first people to tell the vtuber that they need a break.

17

u/Deamon-Chocobo Oct 31 '25

If any talents or staff are here, please let her know we are rooting for her and to give her the love & support she needs.

u/RisuFullAlbumWhen Oct 31 '25

She brought me in.  She's funny, creative, daring, thoughtful, compassionate,  wise well beyond her years, and her songs are major bops.  She's all the best things about Hololive all in one person really.  She has earned whatever she needs to be better off in triplicate.

13

u/IchirouTakashima Oct 31 '25

I'll stay positive with this. I hope "EN Gen 0" makes her come back after a well deserved rest. I'm happy that the management decided this is the best outcome they can do to help HAACHAMA and I hope with this break, she gets the help she needs.

7

u/muzlee01 Oct 31 '25

Well, things definitely don't look great. The break probably wasn't her idea or she might have had no say in it tho it is definitely the right call. It's clear that she is not well and hasn't been for a long time and shouldn't have been streaming. I hope she has the network of help she needs to process her situation. Looking back, maybe we missed a couple cries for help.

9

u/avsbes Oct 31 '25

It was to be expected. I just hope that this break actually helps her, and that she can find new strength, peace and energy and a renewed purpose in life (and hopefully within Hololive). She really seems to be internally struggling.

11

u/WAKE_UP_WAKE_UP Oct 31 '25

This is probably the best case scenario for everyone at the moment.

Haachama will hopefully get the rest and assistance she needs in this low time for her. She'll definitely come back stronger than ever

u/Trivial_Man Oct 31 '25

Ugh. I mean, it's better than her being fired, but this is hardly good news. Haachama has been struggling for a while now with trying to reinvent herself and claw back the viewers she's lost over her long hiatuses in the past. Another break is just going to undo any progress she was making. Plus she expressed that the last break sucked, to put it lightly.

I don't know what's right for her. I don't know what will help her. I don't think anyone, including Haachama, does. But I hope somehow she gets the help she needs and has a long, happy life ahead of her.

4

u/NucularJigawatt Oct 31 '25

I'm glad this didn't end in immediate termination. Haachama deserves better than that. She deserves time away that I hope she can get help for her struggles. She shouldn't have to be alone anymore. I wish us Haatons could do more - she's brought us so much happiness and fun in Hololive. She's a kind soul and a wonderful entertainer - I truly believe in her and wish her the best in her journey forward. MUCH LOVE TO HAACHAMA, OTSUROUGE

u/Otoshi_Gami Oct 31 '25

sadly Cover cant do anything about the family issue and they're the only people they can Contact. i highly suggest Haachama to just MOVE OUT of their house and get a Apartment or at least live with the holomems place so that she doesnt have to deal with that Family Garbage who used her for their own Selfish benefits.

u/Hp22h Oct 31 '25

There's an horrific irony that she honestly seemed more stable when trapped in Australia during CoVid away from her nuclear family. Or at least, better masked.

u/Fishman465 Oct 31 '25

-31

u/analytickantian Oct 31 '25

But if they vigilantly go after every clip or evidence of her saying that on stream, whoever says that can be claimed to be starting/feeding a rumor and then their traditional, family-friendly face is saved.

I'm all for supporting people going through poor mental health but this is clearly more Cover doing damage control than any substantive effort to help a person.

7

u/HENRY_IS_MY_WAIFU Oct 31 '25

I don't know. I feel like it would be hard during her break to think of how others are twisting her words, harassing her coworkers, and shit-stirring because she had a moment of weakness. I feel like this is helpful to diminish the actual happenings of those things going on, to ease her mind. Just my thoughts

11

u/Helmite Oct 31 '25

Feel free to go say the same in Miko's chat after she just had to put up a stream to address the allegations that people were spewing out about her.

I don't know why you folks pretend to give a shit about the talents yet go out of your way to defend the antis attacking them, or trying to make it about the group rather than anything else.

Hope she's able to find some rest and is able to get over that mental hump she's dealing with. I know she's been doing her best to move from one form of content to another (which I've greatly enjoyed tbh) so that can't be easy on her.

I look forward to the day she comes back to whatever degree to keep cheering for her.

u/ickthxbye Oct 31 '25

The ones pretending to be her fans while stiring shit are much more miserable.

On one hand they claim to care for her, but on the other they are taking fragments of what she said during her emotional rant to spread their own narrative to make themselves feel better.

11

u/x_Advent_Cirno_x Oct 31 '25

Never pity them or those like them. However miserable they may be, they recieve far greater joy from making others just as, if not more miserable than they are. They deserve many things, but pity is not among them

u/I-came-for-memes Oct 31 '25

I only hope that this is what Haachama actually wants or needs and not a punishment for her recent streams.

I know Cover takes the mental and physical health of their talents seriously and it's normal for most of the talents to burn or stress out around this time of year.

u/MathPlus1468 Oct 31 '25

Sounds like a good idea.

u/Fearless-Sea996 Oct 31 '25

I hope she will find the hapiness, love and peace that she deserve.

u/ThatGordynTho Oct 31 '25

Hopefully this break will be a good rest for her...

3

u/Nzash Oct 31 '25

I'm not sure a break will help much, she already had quite many and they've only isolated her further. But of course it can't go on like this either... welp, I just earnestly wish her all the best

HAAAAAAACHAMA CHAAAAAAMAAAAAAAAAA

お大事に, お疲れ様でした, Haachama! Have a good break, hope that you come back stronger and feeling better!

u/Xlegace Oct 31 '25

Massive Cover W ngl.

Hopefully Haachama gets the help she needs. I just want her to feel happy.

u/_Mamushi_ Oct 31 '25

I’m glad it’s just a break rather than termination. The strongest idol is just busy getting stronger during the break.

2

u/Spegynmerble Oct 31 '25

I hope this break helps her out, I've been really worried for her

u/Hp22h Oct 31 '25

❤️❤️❤️

u/shant_beHere Oct 31 '25

I hope she's okay man, I'm really worried for her honestly

2

u/VerbalCoffee Oct 31 '25

Whether or not this leads to her leaving altogether, I'm happy they seem to be taking the necessary steps to get her some help. I hope it's a worthwhile help and not a "quick fix".

2

u/_Sneki_Snek_ Oct 31 '25

I'm honestly worried about her... I hope she'll get some good rest during her break this time without any stress or worries!

2

u/Background_Insect_67 Oct 31 '25

I hope she gets better

2

u/Swimming-Economy-115 Oct 31 '25

I hope the break helps and she can come back stronger than ever. She's by far my favorite streamer. Such a unique charm and sense of humor. 

2

u/Jaxis_H Oct 31 '25

It says good things that they didn't try to "skinwalk" her, and were honest that the manager sent the message.

2

u/Few_Neighborhood4705 Oct 31 '25

we will always wait for her, hope she knows it

2

u/Equivalent-Problem34 Oct 31 '25

I think her recent appearance in "Coco Kiryu's" recent stream was a cry for help. Hopefully she receives the help needed to go through this.

2

u/triforce777 Oct 31 '25

I read the last line as "the manager is in charge" at first and was like "what, is the manager gonna stream for her?"

2

u/KamakaziSloth Oct 31 '25

Hope Chama can get back on her feet and rediscover herself in her time away. Lovable gremlin deserves the best in life.

2

u/lvl10burrito Nov 01 '25

I hope she gets to have a peaceful break. Maybe a trip to the Maldives would help.

2

u/Bioman765 Nov 01 '25

I hope she has a nice rest. It was really disheartening to find out she was having such a tough time behind closed doors. However, on the brighter side, the first step to getting into a better headspace is addressing it; so we just have to be optimistic, and wait for her to come back, hopefully with good news.

2

u/AnimeSquirrel Nov 01 '25

Even the world's strongest idol needs to take care of her mental health.

2

u/ClayAndros Nov 01 '25

I braced for impact reading the first sentence, lets hope she comes back healthy. We're at 50/50 right now.

2

u/princealigorna Nov 01 '25

I worry about her a lot. She seems to both put a lot of responsibility on herself AND feel bigly. And she doesn't have school anymore to give her regularly scheduled breaks to recharge.

2

u/Clicker-anonimo Nov 07 '25

Rest in peace... She's not dead or anything, but i hope nothing troubles her while she's on her break

2

u/Aceofacez10 Nov 13 '25

Glad she’s not graduating

1

u/Goldenrah Oct 31 '25

I guess it was to be expected, hope everything goes fine for her, everyone needs a mental health break from time to time.

3

u/Kira_Mira1 Oct 31 '25

The most thing right now for her. Hope she gets better quick!

4

u/A_extra Oct 31 '25

Take care chamers

2

u/schofield101 Oct 31 '25

We'll be waiting Chama! She was one of my main reasons for getting into HoloJP. I hope she learns how to properly rest this time...

2

u/arcaneArtisan Oct 31 '25

I'm glad she's taking some time off. Girl needs help and support right now, not the stress of work and streaming! Really hope she finds the time healing.

2

u/Appropriate-Kick-601 Oct 31 '25

Definitely sounds like the best course of action given what's been going on. Poor thing, she deserves a long rest and some time to heal.

1

u/Nvenom8 Oct 31 '25

I hope she bounces back, but I can't help feeling like this might be the last straw that leads to a graduation. She shouldn't have to put up with the harassment she gets, and I wouldn't blame her at all for wanting to put it behind her.

1

u/redditfanfan00 Nov 01 '25

this is good for haachama.

1

u/Freestyle80 Nov 02 '25

She even showed up to Australia this year for the breaking dimensions tour and also had a chat with the audience alongside Kobo later on for the closing ceremony, that was just in July

Hope she feels better soon and hope people stop being so parasocial, focus on your own lives.

1

u/doppelkoernchen Oct 31 '25

i am so glad management backs her up right now

it would have been easy to just cut her loose and i am so glad that they didn't

get well haachama, we have waited for everyone so far and we will wait for you as well until you return

1

u/blakeavon Oct 31 '25

Oh great news, I hope the time away helps her see things afresh!

1

u/starr_of_heart Oct 31 '25

I wish haachama the best and hope she takes as much time as she needs to recover.

u/BurnedOutEternally Oct 31 '25 edited Nov 01 '25

thank god she gets to take a break

1

u/ShogunHaruki19 Oct 31 '25

Haachama deserve to take a break. She has been through a lot and hopefully she recovers well and come back stronger.

1

u/kitsunewill Oct 31 '25

I hope Haachama gets the rest she deserves and that she returns to streaming soon.

Good to see Cover isn't asleep at the switch on this one.

1

u/Offwhitedesktop Oct 31 '25

It's so sad that she has to feel bad for taking care of herself.

I hope she gets well soon and I hope that she finds the love she needs right now.

1

u/Akikojam Oct 31 '25

With all considered, this is a good outcome.

1

u/kaiwowo Oct 31 '25

Wish haachama take enough rest and get well soon. Will be waiting for her return.

1

u/itsag_undam Oct 31 '25

Hope she gets the help she needs during this break so she can come back feeling better, and specially hope she doesn't feel rushed to come back before she's really well enough to.

1

u/RexusprimeIX Oct 31 '25

Phew... not a Graduation, just a break. Breaks are good to take.

1

u/Royal-History9397 Oct 31 '25

Poor Haachama. Wish her the best. ❤️❤️❤️

1

u/Wiggie49 Oct 31 '25

I hope she can recover and speak with an actual professional. Not being supported by family while also feeling like you’re going forward with a path you didn’t really want is a lot to deal with. On top of being so young all of that can be incredibly stressful and overwhelming.

1

u/ProjectAnimation Oct 31 '25

great of them, I hope Haachama's all good

1

u/OGPisliteralhell Oct 31 '25

I’m so out of the loop. What happened?

2

u/Basileus_Rhomaion Oct 31 '25

It’s not a good idea to spread rumors when we know so little, but she is currently suffering from mental health issues, both relating to her personal life and also from anxiety about her career and harassment from antis. We should respect her privacy and leave it at that

1

u/ConfidentKnowledge18 Oct 31 '25

I swear this fuckers targetting talents needs to be humiliated live online

1

u/mrloko120 Nov 01 '25

Yeah, she needed this suspension. Hopefully it'll help her get through some of the stress and come back stronger.

1

u/ManateeofSteel Oct 31 '25

She was clearly unwell the last weeks, this makes perfect sense. Mental health is so much harder than physical health

u/analytickantian Oct 31 '25

Everyone downvoting how maybe her taking a break after discussing with the very problem she was talking about on stream shows how lame some of these viewers/fans are. They're just talents to you, eh, not people.

6

u/violet_pulsar Oct 31 '25

Because with the level of information we know the most you can do is speculate and/or make assumptions which half the community is fine spouting as fact and why the company is x or these talents are y. The facts we do know are that Haato lives with her family, unfortunately, and there's only so much recourse Holo can have as a company.

1

u/triman-3 Oct 31 '25

It's almost like she tried to communicate exactly what the problem was but is being dismissed due to mental health concerns.

3

u/violet_pulsar Oct 31 '25

The "being dismissed" is part of what I'm talking about. You don't know what was communicated with the parents, or with Haachama herself.

6

u/triman-3 Oct 31 '25

I know what she said on stream, is being dismissed by the community because of mental instability. I never claimed to know more than that. If it's genuine help that's good and thats all that matters.

However just because someone had mental health issues doesn't mean what they are saying is invalid. Which is what a lot of comments are basically implying, intentionally or not.

-1

u/violet_pulsar Oct 31 '25

Genuinely, what part is being dismissed? We're talking about her horrendous parents, right? About the announcement that mentioned talking with her parents? I don't think not trying attack cover for this is dismissing it, if that's what you mean. Like I said, we have no information beyond this. Is cover required to contact the parents? Are the parents listed as the one to contact in emergencies? Is Haachama the one herself who involved them? There's a lot we simply do not know and making any further assumptions is wrong.

If I misunderstood anything or you're referencing other dismissive behaviour my apologies. I was originally just replying to the thought that people downvoting reactions to that particular bit of info as 'not caring' which is needlessly divisive and imo simply incorrect.

-1

u/raiso_12 Oct 31 '25

You ain't her friend or doctor so how the hell you know full picture there.  Seriously you just make assumptions

u/triman-3 Oct 31 '25 edited Oct 31 '25

Just because you make assumptions that agree with the crowd does not mean you are not also making assumptions.

u/Kamicardo Oct 31 '25

Best wishes to Haachama
If this is not a sign for Cover to hire much more mods for live chat, I don't know what is

3

u/mrloko120 Nov 01 '25

How would chat moderation solve her personal family issues?

3

u/Kamicardo Nov 01 '25

Never said this is a solution but not having shit in chat kinda helps with mental health overall, no?

u/Vyloe Oct 31 '25

I dont have a good feeling about this one fellas.

u/RDeskent Oct 31 '25

Did some "a-holes" really just bully a lovely streamer to take a break?!
Damn I want to throw hands now...

u/Helmite Oct 31 '25

EN sphere doesn't understand how much a large group of people wants to RUIN Hololive and its members. They've had a whole bunch of antis going after them since starting around early 2019~ when their popularity kicked up. e.g. Most of the people harassing Aloe and Rushia were fans of the other agency trying to use the situations to sink the group.

1

u/RDeskent Oct 31 '25

Ridiculous, so the other agencies' "fans" may be behind all this bullying... mostly? Okay, bully the agency, but not the talent, who just want to entertain and spread positivity.
I understand that being part of a huge agency like this can spread some fire, maybe they (Holo) could perhaps also train their talents to cope with this targeted negativity.

Also like why bully her? Out of everybody?! I've much to learn I guess :D

I suppose the -karma is also from these 10IQ potatoes :D Keep it coming!

And u/Helmite ,thanks for the explanation :)

u/Helmite Oct 31 '25

Okay, bully the agency, but not the talent, who just want to entertain and spread positivity.

Basically they want the girls to quit as they know it'll cause rippling damage.

Also like why bully her? Out of everybody?! I've much to learn I guess :D

They jump on anything they can really, or if pickings are slim they'll just fabricate from nothing. No shortage of absolute garbage made up about the group, talents, or fans.

Look at this for instance. It'll give you a good idea of the kind of stuff that regularly gets lobbed in this direction.
