The hololive Twitter account announced on January 16 that management company COVER Corp. terminated the contract with virtual YouTuber Yozora Mel due to “leaking information that she was acquired from the company to third parties,” violating its terms.
The company found it difficult to continue supporting the talent and said the decision was made with her consent.
Her YouTube channel and its membership feature will close at the end of February.
Mel tweeted her own statement on her personal account, deeply apologizing for her actions.
Mel debuted as part of the first hololive generation in May 2018, along with Aki Rosenthal, Matsuiro Matsuri, Shirakami Fubuki and Akai Haato.
The company saw the graduation of second-generation British talent Tsukumo Sana, the comprehensive-Council-English group, in July 2022.
Earlier that year, COVER Corp terminated its contract with Uruha Rushia in February due to breach of contract. The company claims that this talent distributed “false information to third parties and leaked information, including communications related to business matters.”
