Uruha Rushia claims Hololive made \u201cblatant mistake\u201d in former idol\u2019s dismissal YouTube: Uruha RushiaFormer Hololive star Uruha Rushia has revealed on Twitter that Cover Corp refused to issue a correction in regards to \u201cfalse statements\u201d made about her termination in February, claiming it led to \u201cslander\u201d online. In February 2022, Uruha Rushia was let go from mega VTuber agency Hololive after it was reported that she had been leaking confidential information. The community was divided on Rushia\u2019s dismissal \u2014 defenders of the necromancer criticized the decision, while others pointed towards the \u2018blatant\u2019 breach of her contract as stated by Hololive. Many VTubers, including her fellow third generation gen-mates, showed support following her dismissal. While Rushia kept her cards close to her chest \u2014 except for a short statement after her dismissal on her Mikeneko account \u2014 she has now spoken out more publicly about it three months on. Rushia, now Mikeneko, claimed Hololive\u2019s original statement around her dismissal was \u201cfalse\u201d and led to \u201cslander\u201d online from various parties. However, she stated there was no bad blood between the two. According to a translation, Rushia apologized to fans on June 24 for taking so long to address the situation properly. However, she has chosen to break her silence after Hololive refused to \u201crevise their statement\u201d about her firing. \u201cI\u2019ve been in discussion with the company I was previously affiliated with regarding the specifics of this statement and in what way it is to be released,\u201d she said. The statement delves deep into the lead up and subsequent moments of her release. Rushia detailed how certain leaks and comments made by her former company were a form of misinformation that led to her being \u201csubjected to much slander and defamation.\u201d \u201cThere was a blatant mistake in the official statement released by the company, and I had asked them to release an official correction. Namely, they claimed that I \u2018made false declarations to various related parties.\u2019 \u201cI sent an exchange between me and my manager on LINE to one person outside the company \u2014 this is true. I felt that I had to do so in order to stop certain conversations that were taking place at the time. \u201cHowever, I did not leak any other information, and neither did I make any false declarations.\u201d She also mentions her desire to have released a joint statement with them about this but was then left to make the statement alone after they \u201ccould not cooperate to such lengths.\u201d In particular, Russia also highlighted how the claim that she said she wanted to \u201cruin\u201d all other Gen 3 members was taken out of context and leaked to appear to be in reference to said members. While it was previously reported that the \u201cI want to ruin them all\u201d message was sent on February 11, 2022, Rushia insisted that this was actually taken from a message sent back in November 2021. \u201cThe timing and the way this message was leaked made it seem like I had sent it after the incident, but that is entirely untrue.\u201d Rushia then expressed that not being able to \u201ccorrect\u201d this for such a long time has \u201cweighed very heavily\u201d on her and has also \u201cled to many people getting hurt\u201d. Rushia then debunked the claims that she has been harboring resentment and bitterness to the other members, stating that she still \u201cgreatly treasures\u201d them and that she still watches their streams and has maintained her bond with them. Quickly after Rushia\u2019s tweet was published, Cover then issued a statement of their own. The agency denied they made an errors in the initial press release and furthermore shut down the notion that they have acknowledged these alleged errors. \u201cWe would like to reiterate on our company\u2019s position that there was no error in the past release, nor have we ever acknowledged error from the past release.\u201d They did end the statement by asking fans and the community to \u201crefrain from any form of slander to the related party in this matter.\u201d The exact details of the situation and her release are still largely unknown \u2014 despite many rumors to the contrary. However given these recent statements from both parties it appears that the issue is still being worked through and addressed even months after the initial termination took place.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
