Claiming that she was unable to put aside the things that stressed her, Mumei said:

"All of this has been weighing in very heavily on me for a very long time, as you probably noticed my activity plummeted. Especially within the last year. My frustrations and anxieties around everything made it increasingly more difficult to put myself in front of thousands of people. I'm sorry that I cannot be more transparent about my absences, especially recently, and that I was unable to put my stressors to the side to be more present."

Nanashi Mumei then talked about the "accumulation of issues" that affected her ability to speak and sing:

"The accumulation of issues, especially those pertaining to my ability to speak and sing, led me to step away to preserve my mental well-being. I love performing and singing on stage more than anything. So, when it became apparent that I would not be able to accomplish what I wanted to in that area, I was left just heartbroken."
