On September 24 Akai Haato streamed herself checking out her youtube analytics, and mentioned that some of her viewers came from Taiwan. A day later Kiryu Coco did the same thing and also mentioned that some of her viewers came from Taiwan. Chinese fans got pissed. Cover had to do something or else they would lose a big portion of their market. So two days later both Haato and Coco were suspended for three weeks and Cover made an apology towards China.

After this event Coco faced effectively a "soft-embargo" on her endeavors as a Hololive Vtuber many of which came directly from staff themselves, these include but are not limited to;
>The suspension of Coco's morning show "Asacoco"
>The heavy restrictions on Coco's attempts to collaborate with other members
>Coco was blacklisted from appearing on Hologra
>As the antis spammed her chat to oblivion Cover did very little to help for many months including the most damning incident where Coco took a list of her worst antis to Cover to have them intervene and help her chat only to have Cover deliberately give moderator status to said antis who then used this power to ban many of Coco's most loyal fans (source - https://streamable.com/1fq1y4 )
>Coco gets ostracisised from New Years event and spends night alone while nearly all Japan based vtubers attended


All of these things are objective incidents which cannot be disputed, what followed would be that on Jun 9th Coco would announce she would be graduating for "reasons she cannot talk about". Simultaneously a video was posted claiming that it was Chinese supporting elements that were the true cause for Coco's graduation of which you can watch below;

>Jun 9th - Upload Time (UTC): 3:16:18 - Coco announces she will be Graduating in a month with many vague reasonings.

>Jun 9th - Upload Time (UTC): 03:03:12 - Narukami Sabaki Official "premiers" a premade video claimed to be and uploaded some time long before the announcement.

Although it is unsupported hearsay we can see from previous actions taken by Cover that likely many of the things talked about in the expose video are not only plausible but very likely. Not to mention the level of shilling each and every one of these threads gets weighed under. Cover intentionally harassed and belittled Coco's efforts in an attempt to force her to self-graduate all to the ends of attaining favorship from China and getting their hands on that sweet chink money.
