Its weird to say but I don't feel really sad to where I'm tearing up but more like... I don't know how to explain it exactly but like melancholy?
It just feels like A-chan decided to close her chapter of her story in Hololive and decided to move on.
She will definitely be missed, she was one of the Hololive OG's despite not being an official talent herself. She was one of three people that created the existence and the start of Hololive alongside Yagoo and Sora.

Same here. For one part I always thought of her as the 2nd in command, despite being the opposite. But for the other side is like understanding due to her circumstances too of her being absent for 3 months.
Part of me speculates, as always, that she has to take care of a family business since is hard to step down for a position like this like she had without a strong reason. That strong reason is being the head of a business due to unforeseeable circumstances (illness of a family related to said business, death of a family related to said business, or even the person having to retire prematurely too). And knowing her being hyper-competent at her age. Huge fair reminder that A-chan is 23 years old too and managed to be in a bigger position in Cover already at a younger age. So she accomplished a lot of things that maybe Yagoo sees in her than any other did at all. She is a prodigy. So it wouldn't be crazy if this is the very reason why she stepped down.
She has been such an integral part of Sora and Hololive as a whole that you'd think she would always be there long as the latter two continue to exist, but I guess nobody really ever wondered about the other way around.
Thank you for the past 7 years, A-chan. For being a central pillar for our Sora-chan, and by extension an invaluable supporting beam of a much grander dream.
She steps down from her position at Cover, because of family reasons.
I speculate it is related to family business and she has to take care of them, as it isn't uncommon in Japan to have this circumstances happen due retirement/illness or dead in the family of a person in an important position
I hope A-chan just got married, and that's the reason for her retirement. A medical reason for a family member that requires her to retire entirely is a little to sad to hear for me.

I hope A-chan all the best wish tho
A-chan isn’t a talent and doesn’t have to uphold herself to idol behavior. Getting married wouldn’t be an issue for her.

None of the talents are banned from relationships either. People quitting their job after marriage isn't something that's exclusive to the idol industry.

My point is A-Chan wouldn’t need to lie about it being sick parents to cover up a marriage. The talents are free to have relationships but they probably aren’t supposed to make them public. Staff however would have no issue like that.

Please don't start speculating. She's been on hiatus for family health concerns for months, and by her own words chose to retire because she wouldn't be able to return to work like she had originally planned. If it's something that's keeping her away from Hololive, the project she spearheaded and supported more than anyone else for seven years, then it must be extremely serious, and who knows how hard it's been on her. We don't need to know anything more than that, and it never goes anywhere good when people start speculating about other peoples' personal lives.
For what is is worth, I think that Yagoo will extend to her the same kind of "You can come back any time" reacceptance guarantee he gave to Coco (in private at least, even if never disclosed publicly).
However, I doubt A-chan will ever take it, given how many years worth of stress taken off her life she has already poured in, and what appears to be the high severity family health thing that is likely going to drain her even moreso.
But whatever happens, we will never forget what she has done for Hololive and entire genre as a whole worldwide.
