Thank you very much for your continued support of hololive production and HOLOSTARS.
We wish to notice you of some upcoming changes to be made to HOLOSTARS' management structure.
Since its launch in 2019, HOLOSTARS has been active for almost seven years. With the debuts of 1st, 2nd, and 3rd Gens, followed by UPROAR!!, it has grown into a group with a total of 12 currently active members and over the course of seven years, their activities went beyond streaming on YouTube, as they joined events, exhibitions, collaborations, and live shows on site.
However, the current state of the HOLOSTARS business has forced us as a company to have repeated discussions about how to maintain HOLOSTARS in a sustainable manner. We considered the future direction of the group's activities from various perspectives.
Ultimately, we have arrived at the conclusion that changing the management structure in a way that fits the current status of HOLOSTARS' activities is unavoidable.
As a result, the company-led activities of the group, which have progressed alongside the individual activities of each talent, will be coming to a close. From this fiscal year onward, activity policies will shift to mainly focus on individual activities. Moreover, as we will reallocate certain resources, some of our support will be limited or conclude entirely.
These structural changes will mainly affect:
- Company-led projects and initiatives
- Talent streams conducted in company studios
- All types of new merchandise releases, including anniversary items
- Production and release of original songs
etc.
Meanwhile, even within this new structure, we will continue to provide the necessary and appropriate environment and support for each talent to pursue their activities in line with the aforementioned policies.
We are in discussion with each talent regarding their activities going forward, and respect their wishes to the best of our abilities. We hope that you will continue to give your warm support for the talents' activities.
Please understand that these changes are being made as an executive decision aiming to optimize the overall business, and has not been caused by any of the talents themselves.
Please refrain from directly inquiring with the talents about this particular matter.
Once again, we hope for your continued support for and appreciation of HOLOSTARS in the future.
