Hololive EN Myth Vtuber Kiara Takanashi took to social media to announce she’ll be taking a break for “about three weeks.” This is to allow her a break for health purposes due to feeling burnt out.
Kiara brought up that due to the nature of the job at Hololive, even when she’s taken time off she’s thought about work until now. She described this three week break as a chance to “detox.” However, she also noted that while she will be pausing her activities, there will still be videos on her channel “almost every day.”
Here’s the full statement from Kiara Takanashi about her upcoming break.
Kikkeriki!
I’ve been working in Hololive for 3.5 years now and even on vacations I’ve never been able to go through a single day without doing some sort of work. This job has been on my mind 24.7.
Around the end of 2023 I also have been feeling very burnt out, but due to unavoidable work I felt pressured to not take a break.
The time has finally come for me to take a full detox break, where I intend to stay away from Discord, Twitter and YouTube fully for about 3 weeks from now.
As a content creator, it’s a bit scary to take such a break, and also my work brain doesn’t even know how to do it, but I hope to come back refreshed and prevent a mental breakdown for the future with this!
In the meantime, I hope you guys also take good care of yourselves and maybe treat yourself to some nice relaxation too.
I prepared a lot of little videos for almost every day of the 3 weeks, so make sure to still check your subscription box!
Thanks for your outgoing support. I’ll be back before you know it!
Kiara is expected to return on or after February 8, 2024. People can find her past videos on YouTube.
