https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IQlhm1m83hMShe already did everything she wanted as a vtuber by the end of June, but said she continued because the fans wanted her to.
But then she just went into zombie Apex collabs mode all summer, even tried it on her roommate account. Didn't seem like she was into playing the character that heavily anymore and then management kept coming down on her, to tone it down when they started getting more sponsors + the China thing.
She's bounced back a few times since October, pretty sure she won't be leaving because she's enjoying all the idol and VA side of the job they're getting now, but doesn't look like she'll ever be as hungry and energetic like the 2019 Matsuri we know from the big clips.
She could transition into a vtuber sage though, since she's a lot more motherly now and worked at getting a lot of newbies comfortable.
