What a year…
God damnit. Welp.
Goddammit, can’t even go a month without a graduation these days. This is a pattern at this point, if it wasn’t obvious enough.
I haven’t been watching his streams lately, has he mentioned any health issues he’s been going through? As far as I know, he’s really sickly.
Edit: I hope he’s feeling okay and I’m hoping he stays healthy.
GG
I feel like this is the least surprising. And given his health not being great, I feel like he just can’t keep up the pace for corpo VTubing and keeping himself healthy. :T I don’t think there’s drama on this one, but we’ll see.
Great, first damn day of February am I right
​
Seriously though, hope he takes good care of himself
Now Das Crazy
oh no…. anyway.

Can’t even make the effort to get it right.
Damn dude is Niji gonna have a graduation every month??
EN is dropping like flys
Pour one out for the kyomies
Huh?
Not too surprised honestly. Hopefully it isn’t health related
Another graduation already? Wtf

Every day I come on this reddit preparing to see anything about Selen and then I see someone else is graduating though I’m not that surprise about Kyo because of his health problems. I wish the best for him.
Fuck fuck fuck
He’s been through a lot of shit lately and really received a lot of underserved hate. He definitely should be more sensitive to some topics but fans really didn’t give him much of a break. He’s young and really should have the chance to learn instead of just being dogpiled.
Fans and haters alike also make jokes about his health often and fail to respect his boundary.
Bro a good man but its time to go partway man got my type of humor respect
oh fuck
How I dread the sight of the words Notice and Graduation.
I’m not much of a Kyo viewer but I wish him all the best. And my heart goes out to the all the Kyomies, who’ve supported him all this time.
Given what we know about his health, I hope he takes good care of himself, and follow other creative paths. Until now I have pretty much enjoyed his content, and it’s sad to see him graduate.
Sad to see him go, but also understandable. Vtubing just seems like an intense line of work and well, Iluna has been around for what, 1-2 years now? It seems a lot of content creators hit some form of burnout at around 2-3 years anyway, and not just vtubers.
With so many livers active right now, it’s not surprising to see people want to move on eventually.
12 months. 12 Livers.
Feel like this year will be:
“Let’s do a big niji event”
“But sir most of our popular talents are graduated”
“Oh”
I’m getting to a point where I’m not even surprised anymore. I just open Twitter or Reddit and am like “who’s it gonna be today”.
holy shut
It’s sad to see but hopefully Kyo’s health and situation improves moving forward
It’s probably for the best
people are just done with their contract and doesn’t want to resign, its the same with every other workplace, nothing stays forever so enjoy the present while they are still here
His collabs with Ren were so funny, and his Minecraft streams were great for just hopping in and chilling for a few hours (it was so cool seeing the Iluna institute slowly take shape during each stream). Kyo will definitely be missed and I wish him the best in his future endeavors.
It is likely based on his health
but at this point Nijisanji EN just seems to be crumbling
people are losing faith in the EN dream and it seems the livers become unhappy after awhile, maybe that has to do with the work load, the management or just finding themselves and realizing they don’t need to do this anymore and can do their own thing.
Really sad to see, at this point you should just expect the bad news to come regarding Selen.
Goddamn, that stucks, really liked Kyo’s energy, not going to be same without him.
I did not expect this today. Wow. That’s crazy . . .
Oh damn, I never really watched Kyo tbh but I would see him and clips and such and he seemed like a fun guy. From this thread it seems he actually has rather serious health issues? Sadness, I hope the best for him o7
It was his Health is my guess, sad to hear that but he was always open about stuff like this whenever ask if he will stay and always answers “It depends on my plans”. To wherever he will go good luck to him o7
This is really out of left field to me. This is one of those wierd instances where I actually kinda hope the reason for graduation is burnout/drama/etc because if it really is health related, that’s just really tough to hear about anyone. Just graduating won’t make those problems disappear, unfortunately. Hoping the best for him, truly.
nijiover for kyomies
ILUNA was the group that got me into vtubing so this is especially sad for me. It’s understandable why he is graduating and I hope him the best.
welp another L and what sucks is with how selen has not said anything nor managment im worried she is also going to graduate.
YOURE KIDDING WHAT
Another one bites the dust. I see niji as the Titanic – a monstrous, impressive thing that is failing due to incompetence of management. Talent has gone there, talent has gone here – and in the end there will only be “effective” managers who forced all streamers to leave
… but everything is totally fine at nijisanji…
