Is she leaving because of China? Didn't the Chinese start protesting Coco when she mentioned Taiwan once in a stream?
Unknown, officially it is not due to china (officially there seem to be no stated reason at all, which is standard practice I think), other unofficial sources claim otherwise, but dunno about their validity.
Yes, they started protesting when she mentioned Taiwan, when reading statics about viewers, this lead to the Chinese branch of Hololive to be shut down.
I have to doubt it was China that was behind this, or at least the #1 reason. Cover jettisoned their entire China branch rather than lose Coco and she seemed to finally be getting a handle on the anti spam recently, plus she's featured prominently in recent advertising for Hololive Alternative. Idk, it doesn't make sense to me that they'd cut her loose at this junction.
In any case, if this isn't an out-of-season April Fool's joke I hope Kaichou hangs on as a manager at Cover or some other back-office role. Maybe even the manager of Holo-EN's 2nd generation, because if I'm going to be optimistic for once I might as well go all the way.
I almost guarantee it was related to the Chinese harassment. Flare had talked about on stream before that Coco was hit hard by it and blames herself for the antis spamming. Even to this day the mere mention of Coco in some girl's streams brings spam from them flooding chat. Like what happened with Suisei a few weeks ago when she dared to do a Coco impression.
