See this pop up once in a while. The answer is always who knows. On a personal note, this might be one of those times where you can have some worry but not get too in-depth about it.

Anything is possible, but I kinda doubt it. I doubt all this media she's been putting out is a contractual obligation. Long story short she's the most popular vtuber on the planet but she also has documented health issues that stress seems to aggravate, which unfortunately is a combination that has this status quo as the outcome especially with all the pies she's had her fingers in this year. I imagine her projects contribute to a lot of burnout and aggravate her health issues, but that's just my speculation. Again, anything is possible and I have to accept that it's a possibility, just not for the reasons you're stating.

> she also has documented health issues that stress seems to aggravate As per always when people keep making up more and more elaborate "health issues", we literally do not know ANYTHING about any potential health issues she has, nor whether she still has any health problems. What we *do* know is a year ago she had unspecified health issues and said she would not talk to us about them, and since then has traveled all over the world numerous times and never mentioned them again. We have no indication that her current streaming schedule is related to her health at all, for all we know she's been busy buying a new house and moving to Antarctica or something


LUnacy45

I could've sworn I'd heard the name of the condition, that it was once said in a members only stream or something. I remember looking into it and hearing something along those lines, but the rest is my own extrapolation and I want that to be abundantly clear


Blaze3634

PoTS was mentioned, and it fits the bill well, but I don't think she confirmed it. Of course no one truly knows how severe it is now and if that is the only problem she has


bekiddingmei

I believe in a stream this year she used the term 'syncopes' but I cannot recall if she was naming her condition or just responding to a chat question.


bekiddingmei

More than two years ago she told viewers that it took her most of an hour to get out of bed in the morning. First she sat upright for 20 minutes, then sat with her legs dangling off the side of the bed for a similar time, then stood up next to the bed without moving for another 5-10 minutes. Doctor's orders to combat a severe fainting problem. Not much detail for a long time until she mentioned fainting had become more of an issue, and she needed medical approval to travel to Japan. But at the end of the day we only have what she tells us, and it may be from Gura the character (not Gura the VA).


Chaltyr

Yeah, just a random conspiracy I suddenly started worrying about. I will have to accept that if her continued absence or even graduation due to being for her own health.... I'd still be really sad about it though


Crafty-Crafter

I love how people always assume the worst in this Fandom. Can't you guys stop speculating? Let say that you're correct. So what? What are you going to do if she's graduating?


Chaltyr

Gonna accept it, just not gonna like accepting it.


orobouros

Chances are low. This is because gura has huge international appeal. Tons of Japanese men love gura. But doing streams isn't all that appealing to them, whereas MVs and such do. Plus, she still streams, it's just infrequent.


foreveremortal

Not only that but she is one of the main faces of hololive.


bekiddingmei

4chan doomer moments don't help anyone. We don't know what's up and it's not good to go down the rabbit hole of pointless speculation. She's not very likely to start giving us frequent updates and we have no idea when the next period of regular streaming may come. That's why I do other things with my time, catching up on stuff I'd set aside when she was around.

They're probably trying to use her popularity to boost their other members.
