>Previous reporting posited that Yumeno Towa, who died of Acute Myeloid Leukemia, may have been struggling with the illness in the 3 years since she discontinued regular streaming activities. Information on this subject has clarified that she was only diagnosed in March 2025, roughly.
Special Owozu/Rakkun Section
>Following the dismissal of the court case against Owozu leveraged by a number of the former talents, one former talent, Rakkun, doxxes several other ex-talents and their families in a stream ranting about the situation, exposing phone numbers, addresses, and at least one talent's DNI (Spain's equivalent to Social Security Number or Personal Identifying Number).
>At least 5 of the ex-talents have issued statements regarding the stream.
>Owozu themselves are now selling Rakkun's L2D model (including source files) for roughly $5 on Booth, stating that the model should be considered a gift for the community, as an unauthorized third party is using the model without permission.

>Rakkun's Twitch channel itself has been suspended for ToS violations.
>Following all of this, Owozu announces that the second case against it has been withdrawn by the Plantiffs.
