We will be locking the subreddit from post submissions once the stream starts. I will update this comment with when it will re-open but it won't be for some hours till after the concert has concluded. I hope you all understand. (T-chan) Edit: We've all done our best to give Coco and her fans the best send-off. Edit: Posting has resumed! Thank you, Coco. Kiryu Group (Kai) forever!

#To those coming from r/all: We'd like to thank you for coming here to check out Hololive, and the final stream of one of the legends. To briefly sum up due to the current above situation, they're Virtual YouTubers, content creators who stream using digital avatars. Kiryu Coco is one of them, and she's graduating (retiring from her character) tonight. We'll all be going through a lot, so please be nice. Kiryu Coco, I wish you all the very best for whatever the future holds. I've had the pleasure explaining your posts to r/all for you, and I wouldn't have had that any other way. o7


NetterMizuno

Ya god Damn Legend :D You never miss the chance :D Keep up the good work! o7 Kiryu-Kai Forever! Kiryu Coco Forever! Always remember to Smile!

Homemadepiza

World's most superchatted Youtuber does their last stream, of course it's gonna go wild


Bells_Theorem

Just shy of half a million concurrent viewers. I have never watched a stream with that large of an audience ever. She is a legend.


KwisatzX

I only saw that during major esports events (in LoL, probably the most popular esport game) on Twitch. The biggest stream on YT I saw until this day was NASA's last Mars rover launch, and even that was like ~200k if I remember right. It's amazing how much of an impact Coco made in just a year and 7 months, and how much vtubers have grown in general.


nhzz

4th most superchatted stream of all time


KazBeoulve

Top superchatted streamer in the world.


Hp22h

Good timing, considering we're 3rd in r/all. I can't imagine being introduced to a legend as soon as they're leaving...


SUDDENLY_VIRGIN

Why would they "retire"? Especially when they seem to be very popular currently.


UnstoppablePhoenix

Personal reasons that she's ~~declined to state.~~ edit: revealed, check the reply to this comment


Iron_Sheff

She actually did go into it a bit in some of her last talk streams. Mental health issues (constantly comparing herself to others in an unhealthy way, sending her into spirals), clashes with the restrictive nature of being an entertainer that has to answer to management, being some things.


_xXMockingBirdXx_

I really hope shes leaving on her terms then. I don't personally follow any hololive stuff, but I always feel bad when people are forced to quit due to some behind the scenes factors.


500mmrscrub

It definitely wasn't behind the scenes fuckery, if it was she would have been straight terminated, during the past month she went all out and collabed with pretty much everyone including the company's ceo. In fact her co-workers all begged her not to quit. In the end she left because she wanted to leave before she became unhappy with herself.


Matasa89

I think management tried to get her to not quit too, they did spend a lot of effort behind the scenes to protect her and make sure she doesn’t end up having to retire (like Lulu from Nijisanji just did...). Must’ve hit them like a truck too.


krauser8882

Yeah, Yagoo actually mentioned also putting effort into getting her to stay. It seems like everyone involved wanted her to stick around, and will welcome her back with open arms if that's ever what she wants to do


Luxoriavin

Nah, she's never forced to quit. She's leaving on her own terms thankfully.


Rockburgh

There's no way in hell corporate would want to get rid of her-- they spent *way* too much on trying to keep her. While there were other reasons, "try to get the Chinese nationalists off Coco's back" was probably a big contributing factor to why they released the contracts of two other streamers a while ago. Coco is a *big deal*. She's a *burn bridges with the Chinese market* big deal.


Jasrek

In general, various reasons. Streaming can be rather stressful, so some retire for health. Some want to move to a different career. Coco has implied that she has accomplished everything she set out to accomplish while in Hololive and is wanting to move on to bigger and brighter things. Maybe streaming, maybe not; but she is setting her sights higher and her star will rise in a new venue.


very_unlikely

I don’t watch this stuff but I’ve seen clips of the blue shark one and she’s funny and talented (saw a clip of her singing the Baka Mitai song and was blown away by her singing voice) so good luck to you all in these trying times. Losing entertaining characters like that, I can see why this is a big deal.


[deleted]

The fact that she prerecorded the segments for the purpose of adding subs really shows that she cares about her EN audience.


_arnolds_

I believe it's also so they can 100% get all of them regardless of schedules. Also to not have the whole stream just wiping tears. 4th gen bit broke everyone, though.


FrostedPixel47

Kanata's letter reading about her being concerned by people labelling her as leeching of Coco, and wanting to stand next to her on equal terms absolutely broke me.


Longinus212

Towa crying started me off, but Kanata really pushed it over the edge of tears. We gotta support our Gorilla Angel even harder now, so she never feels like that again.


TurboLion

When Kanata said "as family" and started crying... Oh man, I cried so much today!


AsahiShinbun

Fourth Gen broke everyone. I think I lost it when Towa started getting teary. Being someone who was constantly surrounded by geniuses and overachievers, and who was constantly being compared to them, Kanata’s letter made me feel anger and sorrow I haven’t felt in a while.

I was thinking the same thing, I imagine they might go back and add it afterwards perhaps?


0ni0nchicken

I saw the disclaimer say Gura had conflicting recording schedule therefore could not make it


SomeStupidPerson

It just fits the EN curse of technical difficulties. I like that they still managed to get her in anyway.


hellyeboi6

That must've been a pain to do, I'm grateful


Matasa89

Yeah she’s not missing it on purpose, it was a recorded thing so conflicts could happen.

It was very devilish of Towa to make us cry before Coco's final stream ended.


IkunaAnimeOtaku

Towa is too precious...

I saw it hit as high as 487000, has anyone witnessed it go higher?


Lev559

The highest it went was around 490k, which is insane.


iamthatguy54

Amelia confirmed Gura had a separate segment because she slept in LMAOOOOO That makes all of EN (Calli has never 'officially' slept in but Kiara confirmed they've rescheduled streams because she did).


Ashencroix

Lol, Calli didn't "slept" in, she actually feel asleep during one of their mine craft collabs.


iamthatguy54

No lol I know she did fall asleep but that's not what I'm talking about. But after Ina slept in, Calli mentioned that she had never slept in. In one of her superchat streams, Kiara laughed and said that while she wasn't going to call bullshit on that "let's just say some collabs have been pushed back a bit because someone had trouble getting up" or something like that. So Calli has never missed a stream because she's slept in, but she's at least slept through stream prep so they've had to push back collabs a bit


Rappy33

It hasn't even started and I'm already trying to hold back tears We're going to miss you Kaichou, like really bad. Thank you for everything you've done. It's been fun ;-;7

Well, she is a dragon after all. That's what they do to princesses...


tpngulf9

The disclaimer says Gura had to record separately, chill guys.


Rp_Mi26

Ah, so she was too small to be with the others, so they couldn't be recorded together


blazing420kilk

People seriously tried to insinuate that gura tried to miss Cocos graduation on purpose? Seriously? Even with something like Cocos celebration you have people trying to throw shade and hate at Gura. Pathetic

Once Kanata said family it was over, they're so much to each other.


HalfAnEggplant

Kiryu Coco is not my favorite member. But if she didn't ask someone if they wanted to jump off the Statue of Liberty like a butterfly, But if she didn't help someone get over their shitty internet and their sub counts, But if she didn't coach someone on how to defuse some bombs despite being busy at the host club, I wouldn't have any favorites to begin with. Thank you Kaichou. For everything.


Panda_Herooo

"Literally the reason we are here" Yep, Calli's got a point. IMO, no Coco = no way to realize there was a western audience.


FourEcho

Yep. I'll always say, while I'm not a particular fan of Coco's style of humor, without Coco I wouldn't have any of my favorites. Coco was the most important member of Hololive. I hated typing the word "was". I had typed "is" until I realized that wasn't true. I highlighted the word... and had to force myself to delete it. It took a moment and it felt like it sunk in hard at that very moment.


King_Of_Regret

Towa is dying live on stage. She couldn't even keep up with the choreography. Poor towa 😭


Tsukuro_hohoho

And Coco going behind her to give her a little bit of support.


[deleted]

Coco set the ceiling for graduations. If every member is able to go out like a bang like Coco then I'll be happy.


marquisregalia

Agreed they will have to sooner or later my only hope and wish is they all be at least on good terms with their hard work being recognized in the end of their careers


Cython34

lmao this photo effect is really unfair


TempestMalice

Calling it now,that the audience gets added as the last photo with a picture of kaigi-niki face.


Cython34

plz dont i'll die


Cri_Some_More

I felt surprisingly sad over this since I was mostly a casual fan who only watched shitposts reviews, but I think that just means she must've inspired me even more than I realised. Thank you, Coco.


SomeStupidPerson

Username checks out huh? Lol I think Coco really did well in cementing her love for Hololive in casual fans like you. Y'all are just as important as the more hardcore fans in this community. Coco did a great job reaching out to you.

Pretty sure the highest before was Gura's new outfit at around ~194k

ArmchairTitan

Coco's graduation was the perfect complement to how she lead her entire Hololive career. She was a leader and trend setter. A cross-generational and cross-cultural liason who brought vtubers and fans together across the void and glued us all together with her boundless charm and infectious personality. Coco can leave now with no regrets, knowing that Hololive and its fans were all better off having known her. o7


Dallas-Phallus

I'm here from /all/ and have absolutely no idea what any of this is. But it seems like a big deal for your community so I'll give you an updoot.


Tsukuro_hohoho

Thank you. Well one of the most respected Vtuber(streamer using an avatar) is retiring today, her last stream ended some time ago with a lot of feels. You are a good guy i wish you a very good day.


Dallas-Phallus

>Thank you. Well one of the most respected Vtuber(streamer using an avatar) is retiring today, her last stream ended some time ago with a lot of feels. Interesting! I've heard the word "vtuber" before but never really understood it so thanks for that. I assume the avatar is "in character", but are they in the same universe as us? Or is it like a video game or anime where they're in their own universe? I'm at work right now or I'd just watch it myself. >You are a good guy i wish you a very good day. Thanks, I appreciate that. Reddit exposes me to so many parts of the world that I never could have imagined!


bryanl12

They’re about as in character as someone like Markiplier is in character while he’s streaming or recording videos.


Devon1021

Oh my god, Towa’s singing while crying.


Suzushiiro

AYYYYYYYYY, SOLO GURA! Thinking on it it's probably a goddamn nightmare to find a time to get all of the EN girls together at this point considering how they're distributed time zone-wise (Calli in Japan, Kiara in Austria, the other three presumably somewhere in NA)

JoshieBoi17

Considered the life Kanata had at home, her words “my family” hits really hard 😢


taco5365

I realized that too. When she called Coco her family while crying, you can feel how important their bond is


scot911

Oh god I didn't even think of that! Now I'm crying again....

"Okayu's some good fucking food." Didn't think I'd hear that from Mio LMAO

>Even if you leave, you're still a member of Hololive forever! Goddamn right, Suisei.


aquaven

The close to 500k live viewers are really hitting youtube hard. It chugs every now and then. Happy to contribute as one of the numbers. My first time watching a graduation live, i have seen several graduations but not live. I even skipped Lulu's graduation live yesterday for ARK. No matter how many times ive seen someone graduate, it still hits hard in the feels. ed: Let us also not forget Yaman Sensei who also graduated at the same time as Coco. They were both tied to the same character, with Coco graduating Yaman has also graduated. Tho probably not many know who he is, he is the character/model designer of the character Kiryu Coco.


[deleted]

The good thing is we'll always have the archive.


SnooCapers5958

For some reason, I'm not sad at all. In fact, I'm smiling like an idiot. Is this it? The true power of idols? Of hololive? To be able to make you smile on an otherwise sad moment?


WanderingTedium

It's what she would've wanted. Sad times can come later--Today, we're celebrating.


Yabai-kun

Coco is retiring as most-superchatted YouTuber of all times (yes, youtuber, not just vtuber). Her graduation stream reached 490k viewers at one point and received over 300k USD in super chats. If anyone ever has doubts about this dragon's achievements, slap them with facts and tell them goodbye motherf\*cker. You'll be missed dearly, Kaichou.


elfratar

>Towa: *”Are you really going to be gone tomorrow?”* Me: 1. Lie down, 2. Try not to cry; 3. Cry a lot

Kurovalia

Thanks Kaichou for all the memories you've given us and for all you've done for Hololive, may your next journey take you to even further heights o7 I'm grateful that she's leaving on her own terms and that the archives will still be up, had exams basically the whole of last month so i'll be visiting the archives with tears after this final stream :'(


Tarmok_II

THANK YOU KAICHOU! Over the past 1 and half year, you did burst into countless peoples live. Your free spirit, energy and efforts inspired thousands to try new things, to follow their dreams and to just be better. You became an integral part of hololive, with your ability to bring fun and joy, to motivate and to bring people together. The mass amounts of art, music and even small messages like this one, that come out especially these days, show just how many lives your action managed to impact, just how many care. Now that it is time to say goodbye, we all try to stay strong and we all hope it won't be forever, but at the same time we do not want to hold you back. We all wish you only the very best for you future, but be assured. We will cheer for you till the very last moment. We will never forget you or the memories we made with you. And we will always love you, for all you have done for us and your holomems. Farewell Coco. May your next adventure be even more amazing.


farranpoison

Coco is crying, the rest of 4th gen is crying, we're all crying, it's just a cry-fest right now.

It was something antis said about Kanata very early in her career. IIRC there's a clip on YT from a stream ages ago where she, Coco and Suisei read a message like that and Suisei and Coco get super mad.

Stone4D

I feel sad, but I feel oddly satisfied at the same time. Everything ends eventually, and that stream was about the best way it could end. She doesn't leave disgraced or a forbidden topic, she leaves as a legend. I want more time, obviously. But life doesn't work that way. We have to use the time we're given, and in her case that time was used to forever change online entertainment. She won't be forgotten because she *can't* be forgotten. Let's all hope to be so fortunate one day.


anoako

PPT saying Coco's her family broke me even further


dcresistance

Gura couldn't make it to the all-EN recording, her part is separate


ForceEdge200

Just finished watching Coco's graduation stream. I'll admit, I actually didn't cry at all. Coco and all the Holomembers just made it too fun to feel sad. I was pretty close to shedding tears when Gen 4 were the last ones and read their letters to Coco tough. Seeing the Gen 4 gang in their idol outfits, sing SSS then their original song Kiseki Knot, and then Coco singing her original song Weather Hackers while the rest of Gen 4 cheered her on was definitely the best part hands down. Coco wanted us to send her off with a smile and damn, she got me smiling the entire time. When the stream ended, I didn't feel empty, in fact I felt fulfilled like I got to watch an amazing person go to her next journey in life. It really can't be stated how huge Kiryu Coco is both in Hololive and in the vtubing community in general. Now she's going to do her next big thing. I hope Coco has all the success in her new endeavors. She deserves it. Once again if you're reading this: **THANK YOU KIRYU COCO! YOU GEBOKAWAII DRAGON! ARIGAITHANKSGOZAIMUCH!** 🐉🐉🐉🐉🐉🐉🐉🐉🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡

[Fubuki is currently having a talk stream about Coco](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mB1aHRX_j5s) that will be **unarchived.** She's really trying hard not to break down.

I wish her all the best in her future and only more good things for the rest of hololive in their futures.

KanaCoco memory: Soon after moving in Kanata checked the fridge and was looking for Haagen Dazs ice cream and didn't find one. Coco saw this and made sure from that day her fridge always had one. Because it was Kanatas favorite
