-She got a major case of burnout last year that she never really recovered from after going so hard into streaming to try to live up to her "gamer maid" title that she collapsed unconscious at work. It didn't help that her trying so hard to meet her fans' expectations only resulted in her receiving the largest wave of antis she's ever had.
-Physically her health is pretty awful and there are days where she just lies in bed due to chronic headaches. She also has chronic sinusitis.
-She's talked in private streams about how she has no motivation and just generally doesn't feel good. She's talked before about how she doesn't want to stream things that wouldn't be fun to watch, and if you've watched any of her streams for a while, at least for me, it really feels like watching someone depressed trying to hide it. I think a big part of why she doesn't stream is because she doesn't feel like she can perform the "happy-go-lucky genki retard" act right now without the "depressed reclusive autist" bleeding through.
-It's much easier to hide the fact that you're a highly anxious depressed and unhappy person through text, so she keeps up posting happy, cute tweets every day.
-She's leaned hard into all the other aspects of the job that aren't streaming, and probably takes on the most big projects out of anyone. She's always been a massive idolfag and since she can't really perform the act as a streamer anymore, she's fully serious about her idol reps and has fully focused her autistic grindset into performing them. It's why she releases so many songs and does so many concerts and does all these other projects despite not streaming much anymore. On stage, she can still be "Minato Aqua". On stream, she's just a depressed autist.
