“My heart is shattered”: Uruha Rushia opens up after she was terminated from Hololive

One of the most well-known VTubers on the platform, Uruha Rushia, was recently terminated by the VTuber group Hololive. In a press release published on February 24, 2022, the Cover Corporation provided context towards the harsh action.

According to a press release, the VTuber had breached their Non-Disclosure Agreement (NDA) by leaking private and confidential information to third-party members. This resulted in the company suffering reputational damage.

Uruha Rushia breaks silence after her recent termination from Hololive

Ever since the news of Rushia being removed from the 3rd Generation of Hololive lineup, everyone in the VTuber sphere has been wondering what was going on behind the scenes with regards to Uruha.

Members of her 3rd Generation lineup spoke up in an earlier stream on February 24, 2022, where they put out their thoughts regarding the whole situation and asked for continuous support from their fans.

VTubers Shirakami Fubuki, Watame, and Shiranui Flare addressed their fans by saying that it was a very sad situation for them as well as for their followers. They even pleaded with the audience not to poke other VTubers regarding confidential information regarding Uruha Rushia.

Soon enough, Rushia herself addressed the public via a tweet. The apologetic message mentioned how the VTuber is mentally and physically exhausted and is confused about the whole situation. The tweet was published in Japanese, and the translation of the message said:

“I'm sorry for all of you really worried, I'm really exhausted both physically and mentally, and I'm still confused. My heart is shattered, but I wanted to tell everyone I'm sorry, but I'm really sorry. Let me tweet the apology first, and let me deliver it again at a later date.”

Other than the tweet, the VTuber went live on TwistCasting stream on the same day that Cover Corporation released their public statement. An English translation of the message has been uploaded to YouTube by user Marune.

Some of the emotional quotes from her audio message were:

“I want to properly accept everyone’s words. Yet, I’ve got many things to say. I am really sorry. I’m very well aware of that. I am sorry for being sloppy. My words have been sloppy. Also, I haven't publicly announced my age yet, so I’d like it if you held back on talking badly towards me.”

Fans react to Uruha Rushia’s first public message

Audiences on YouTube were relieved to hear their favorite VTuber’s voice. They also hoped for her mental well-being.

Uruha Rushia was one of the biggest VTubers on YouTube before she was released from Hololive. She has a massive following of 1.59 million subscribers on her main channel. The channel will be deleted in March 2022 due to her breaching the NDA.

Like how other VTuber channels are usually archived, Rushia’s channel won't be archived due to the seriousness of the matter. All content related to her will be removed from the platform.
