you gotta understand that people just need breaks. Sometimes you need time to pick up your pieces and put yourself together again.
LIke if something happened to your loved ones, you'd be broken for awhile. Yes it can take a short time for some while very long for others. Just gotta have patience.

Just relax and remember the good times you had with Gura. Life sucks if you just get angry at everything just because she doesn't stream for some time.

I'm an actual hater of chumbuds in their general and go there to throw shit around from time to time. This is something I understood and didn't really mattered to me until Gura herself addressed it.

Either way, I can't fuck with them now without hurting gura indirectly. I'll atleast stop burning all threads including reddit posts. I was pretty good at it

Gura has to say that it's personal life stuff that is causing these radio silent "health" breaks since that is the management approved excuse. They certainly won't let her say that HoloEN was having enormous fights over contract renewals or that a suspicious number of EN talents have suddenly needed a hiatus. After Tempus was able to get 2 model redesigns in their first year it was curious how the fighting got worse.

Like if it's health problems or some sort of serious mental health issue I can understand, but what problem is so great that she can't stream her perspective in a collab or write a 2 sentence tweet as some sort of general status update?

She's been reading the messages, both positive AND negative, so she knows that all people really want is just a crumb of communication to calm the schizos. She herself has acknowledge that she needs to improve in this regard. So what gives?

Will 2024 actually be better? As much as I'd like to believe her my tolerance has run low.

It's obvious. She's an introvert, paranoid wreck, always has been. It's not exactly a secret. So a 2 week break turns into 2 months and she thinks "oh fuck, I can't say anything it'll sound fake, I'll just keep quiet" and it turns into 6 months and every day it just gets worse. She knows nothing she says will be adequate, antis will shit on her, and chumbies will offer the same supportive messages either way. So she just remains crippled and paralyzed by her own absence.

Then what was the turning point that made this so much worse in 2023?
And how does that explain her interactions with her genmates? They are obviously aware of what's going on and are "waiting for her" like the problem is going to resolve itself.

[Anonymous No.]

Is it so hard to believe she's just kinda lazy? She can get away with it, so obviously she's going to just be lazy. She doesn't have any money problems (yet) and probably no one can pressure her to do anything because she's too valuable. If it was really a health thing she'd just say I have health problems. Her wording is 'getting her life together' which just means trying to be less lazy.
What are you gonna do about it? Fire her? That's Cover's call. Stop watching? Uh huh, let's see you try. Unsub? Her sub count looks fine.

Gura is a lazy whore who looked at Ayame and just think that she can do the same, be a mascot, sell merch and stop streaming. Free money from the Chumbuds.

[Anonymous No.]

>>66183051
>Then what was the turning point that made this so much worse in 2023?
He just told you. It wasn't like there was a sudden change, she just took a small break that was just long enough that she felt like she'd have to explain it, the anxiety of thinking about that made her take a longer break, and it spirals from there. Content creators do this literally all the time, I couldn’t even list the number I've seen do this, it’s just a mundane part of watching content creators. A lot of them also feel like they then have to make their return "worth the wait" in some way and that just gets more impossible the longer they wait. I don't see how her genmates responses don't fit in with that. The answer to the problem is very literally just "start streaming regularly again". There's no external fix, it's just something Gura has to force herself to do all on her own.

But she has come back, like during the Advent debuts without any sort of special fanfare or explanation aside from them "making her feel more motivated".
And she is back at the moment, but she doesn't want to stream her perspective during a collab where everyone else is doing so because.... why?
And not a single update on twitter aside from obligatory merch shilling? I don't think there was even something as simple as a happy holidays tweet was there?

I don't believe that there's malicious intent, but something just doesn't add up here.

[Anonymous No.]

The funniest thing here is how the real fans are satisfied, they got a cute heartfelt message about how grateful she is to them and asking for just a bit more patience, while the antis are all like UHH THAT ISN'T ENOUGH WHY DIDN'T SHE EXPLAIN EVERYTHING IN DETAIL WHY ARE YOU NOT MAD AT HER WHY DIDN'T SHE STREAM as if their opinions mattered more than what the people who genuinely enjoy her and her content think.

Why do other EN talents keep saying they look up to Gura when they stream far more often? If she was doing the minimum amount of work because she no longer cared there attitude would be indifferent so the cynical answer doesn't explain how they talk about her. Most of HOloEN praise Gura for her kindness so there has to be some purpose in her actions.

I'm might just blow your mind here, but those two groups of people aren't mutually exclusive.
You can be a fan of Gura and appreciate her message, while also acknowledging that a 1 minute speech doesn't really erase the sting of months of ghosting, especially when it literally takes seconds to type something similar on twitter.

You shouldn't be considered an anti for having enough self-respect to question what would be considered an abusive relationship in any other situation. And I can't imagine the "real fans" are truly satisfied with how things are now. Doesn't mean I personally hate or or don't enjoy her content anymore, but we can only be so patient for so long without SOMETHING to work with.

[Anonymous No.]

>>66187072
Mate she basically said she's going through shit she can't really be open about, regardless of whatever the fuck it is. If you really cared about her as much as you insist you do, you'd respect her and keep cheering her on until she's over whatever's stopping her from streaming.
>ah but my self-respect!
You have so much self-respect that you can't stop whining about how this autistic little adult with a job won't share every hardship she's going through, that's very mature and respectful of you.
Basically she's doing her best, at her pace, in her own way. Why can't you do the same?

[Anonymous No.]

>>66185476
NTA, but it's pretty common for people with mental health issues to try and "bounce back" without having fully addressed the underlying issues, rather than recognizing it as a journey that takes time. Going into Advent debuts, she probably felt like it was a good chance to get back to 'normal' and 'how things used to be'. The problem is there is you can't really ever get back to 'how it used to be' and if you didn't fix the underlying issues, you tend to hit a wall really fucking fast. The way her August went makes me think that's exactly what happened.

>>66186504
Maybe because she's still the most successful and being lazy for a year doesn't detract from her past success? Maybe because it would look bad to badmouth a fellow chuuba? Are you retarded? Why are you asking me what other chuubas think? I'm not them. I don't hate gura but it's pretty obvious she's kinda lazy. That's fine, her viewers don't seem to mind at all.

>Why do other EN talents keep saying they look up to Gura when they stream far more often?
They look up to her because she's naturally talented. Not just her singing skills, but her uncanny ability to effortlessly go viral with everything she does.
Unfortunately, God's twisted sense of humor made it so that her natural talent was nerfed by her being unbelievably lazy, unmotivated, unorganized, chronically depressed, and an alcoholic.

[Anonymous No.]

>>66187506
That's great but just like how you want me to respect her feelings and efforts, people like me also want to have their feelings respected.
We can be outwardly supportive and patient, but that doesn't erase the feelings of frustration we've also been dealing with.
I was a member for close to 3 years, and bought her daki and other merch, but I have kept a healthy degree of separation in my parasocial relationship. Imagine how the ones who are unironically in love with her feel, or don't because all you have to do is look around to see what a lack of meds does to a motherfucker.

There are plenty of bad actors of course, but a lot of the "whining" comes from genuine fans like me yelling into the void that is this god forsaken board as a coping mechanism instead of trying to bottle it up or doing something more extreme.

What's sad is that most of this could have been so easily avoided if it was nipped in the bud early on. We don't need the details of her life story, just something like "Hey I'm going on a hiatus for personal reasons. Thanks for your patience and support, I'll try to come back when I can". Even the most menhera messes do something similar in these cases, but she was silent for so long that by the time she did tell us about the "new normal" and her burnout the damage had already been done and doesn't seem to be healing any time soon.

I really do hope she can resolve whatever is ailing her for this year, but even if she does I can't just ignore what has happened and go back to how I felt before (and that sucks).

When they stream far more hours than Gura I find it hard to believe that other EN talents would look up to her if they only considered her to be a good entertainer. They keep saying that Gura is a kind person and that seems important because she must be doing something in HoloEN that causes people to view her actions that way. The previous winter there were those mysterious health breaks with Ina and Gura but now there are 3 talents taking a long hiatus at the same time.

[Anonymous No.]

The most likely scenario is she's fallen back into the bottle. And/or she is medicated.
It's pretty much the ONLY thing that can keep a chuuba from streaming regularly for 1+ year while also being too yabai to be honest about. "Struggling with an addiction" is not a romantic or holesum reason to be on break, compared to dealing with a serious illness or family issues. So it can only be handwaved and rug-swept as "personal issues".

>>66154346

I do sympathize with her if she has, struggling with an addiction is a tough thing to break and people underestimate how badly alcohol can fuck your life up sometimes. I think the main thing that rubs people the wrong way is just the general lack of communication, but if it is that, it's probably not just trying to keep up the nice image of Gura in public but she probably also feels really ashamed about it.
I really hope she is genuinely getting help with it, if that is what it is, and not struggling on her own.
