It's kinda sad the state that Kizuna Ai has been left in. She was pretty much the pioneer of vtubers and brought the craze into popularity, and yet she's been largely overshadowed at this point in the very community she practically created.
Unfortunately, YT algo dictates who's going to succeed or not. Also, a lot of misinformation and bad business management hurt her too. She had a great sendoff (for her hiatus) though which is really awesome. 100k+ viewers not including those from bilibili. Also got like 70k+ subs from this concert.
Unfortunately, I barely watched Kizuna Ai but I have to say, the way she announced her hiatus, etc. just impressed me. I don’t even know how to explain it all I know that it’s hands down the best I’ve ever seen. Hopefully, I can catch one of her streams ^^
Has she? How many vtubers do you see with the amount of merchandise, collabs, side projects, accomplishments, etc that Kizuna Ai has? She is still at the top, its just that she isnt alone anymore.
@@RaGiAn87 its a pretty well known fact that kizuna sadly got overshadowed, her company lost alot of money and alot of fans after the kizuna clone situation, shes still fairly big in japan but not as much as she use to be
She should be coming back after the anime adaptation. But I feel like that's the main reason why she is on Haitus in the first place. Rn vtubing is still super big but maybe 3 years down the line it will fall off the map so she wants to do it while it's here
@@kureijijohndoe1932 Nah, vtubuing will still be strong just like people are still watching youtubers. It would be even stronger if the metaverse is actually going to happen.
@@juanp.mendoza8114 no, even as of recent 3d live from hololive, they are lacking a lot in terms of movement tracking, kizuna ai's tracking is a lot more human like, even minute movement is reflected on her model, probably a different motion capture tech is used by her..
I still remember back in the day when i first discovered Kizuna Ai and the concept of "virtual youtubers" after that one fan letter she sent to Pewdiepie that was featured in one of his videos and the rest is history. That still feels like yesterday, time really flew fast huh?
Yeah i remember that iirc it's in one of the LWIAY episodes when vine was still a thing and let's play is at its peak. Man i feel really nostalgic even though im still 16
given the huge buildup to this, it looks like she's going to be gone for a long, long time, which is why she gave such a heartfelt message. man, to think she was the person that started the big vtuber scene. all vtubers and fans should realise just how big and important she truly is. but one thing's for certain. no matter how long it takes, i'll be waiting for her return and i wish her good luck.
indeed she is gonna be long gone for a while. Given also the fact they she no longer has nothing to show and prove anymore. she already did what she had to do.
Imagine that you have a part of your life story about how you changed the world in just span of 5 years. This is not the end of the story. Waiting for her return.
I remember when she got banned by Yt in her early days,must take down several of her videos and try to become more"family friendly"but fail successfully,she rages,she goes into tantrum and swears when got defeated in game,she have no filters showing her emotions, her presence feels so real. feels like, hanging out with a dear friend. I'll be waiting for her come back
I was still a bratty teenager when Kizuna first popped up. It was one of the biggest hyped reveals at the time. Everyone asked themselves, “what’s a virtual UA-camr going to be like?” After all these years, the changes, new things we got, and all the experiences that came forth, it immersed us with new kinds of entertainment and content for lots of people to enjoy. I’ll never forget you Ai-chan, and I thank you. Hope to see your return!
She started the entire Vtuber wave and worked her ass off for nearly 6 years. No other Vtuber would exist today without her. She deserves a good long rest after all of this.
Basically, Kizuna Ai-chan will stop her vtuber works for now but she will do anime works. I feel like she's really giving us all her best even in her hiatus. I will miss her live streams but there will be an anime to relinquish our saudade.
When I watched the concert, the thought circulated through my mind was "She's done something wonderful". Whether she comes back or not, she's left wonderful memories and a footprint on a whole genre of entertainment. So to her, thank you, and all the best wishes wherever you are, to what you are doing!
I remember the time where i would always wait for her upload back when i was in high school. She can take a rest for god knows how long and everyone will still be waiting for her to come back
What a heartfelt message and reflection on the past 5 years. I hope this hiatus helps get done what needs to be, because i truly want to see those bigger dreams she has.
As the person who got me into vtubers in all those years ago. Kizuna ai has a special place in my heart above the others. She laid a foundation for the future of vtubers. She will be missed dearly. The only regret I have was that in 2019 I drifted away from her content and livestreams but, would still binge the vods and listen to the music she made. It was a great 6 year journey. She Worked really hard for 6 years rest well ai chan thank you for all the hard work. You will be missed but never forgotten, I know I will never forget her.
I'm always going to remember her happily for not just her impact but also how I've enjoyed watching her over the years. I hope she and everyone in the Kizuna Ai team is able to have great success in wherever they go in the future. Thank you, Kizuna AI.
The fact that she keeps on thanking us for everything breaks my heart a little. We should be the ones thanking Kizuna Ai for all these memories we made with her. All these live's,all these chats with her. We thank you gratefully Ai chan.
It's sad to see her go and I'll absolutely remember her as the one who dragged me into this wonderful rabbit hole, but I really, _really_ hope the stuff about NFTs and 'metaverse' in the hiatus announcement don't end up coming true.
I love AI, yeah I have to admit I don't watch her often, but I watched her from time to time for years now. There's a part of my heart? Soul? Something inside my chest that feel, sad of her leaving. Kizuna AI is someone I would gladly call the queen of V-tubers, no one comes close to her. She set the stage for all other V-tubers to come after her, what she has created will forever be remembered, her legacy is eternal and I know for sure everyone especially the Vtuber community will wait for her return and when she's back everyone will celebrate it like no tomorrow
She's the first vtuber I ever got to watch, then Siro. Then Pekora arrived, along Korone, Rushia, Subaru, and Shion. I remember watching holo's 4th gen debut, and so on, along Ange, Era, Honma, Gundou, and lots more. I've got to watch happy and sad streams since Ai brought me here. Now, watching her stepping out, for whatever reason she has, makes me wonder, how would it been if I haven't click on that banner? Looking back, she made a lot more for me than lots of people I have met, and so listening to her thank us for her career makes me tear up, as she has made a lot for me as well. Hope the best for her, and hope she gets to keep all this happy memories all the way, wherever it takes her from now on. And thank you, vtubing community, for being awesome and give everyone else something to smile about. Cheers.
Thanks for this man. Its an honor to hear the last message of this old legend who went out with fireworks as a fan of vtubers. A shame I missed her after I just got into this vtuber rabbit hole.
She done something not lot out there can say they have done. She left a lasting impression on us all and the vtubing community. We'll will wait with baited breath for when she ever returns
Being the first vtuber I watched, Kizuna Ai will always hold a special place in my heart. I'll miss her and surely will be happy when she returns someday. For now, I hope she got a well deserved rest.
Man, I was there when she was just getting started. I heard about it from my friend. Ever since then I've fallen into this rabbit hole. Damn, so many things we've gone through together, from my old friends whom I met together while watching Kizuna on her first stream and to the friends I've met on the way till here. I love y'all haha. Lastly, may Kizuna Ai gets her well deserved sleep and come back with a new bright light!
I am new to kizuna AI, so I haven't watched her activities but I know her as one of the reasons why Vtuber are here...Seeing this really touched me... I don't know how to explain but..."I'll be waiting for you Ai-chan" is all I can think...
she's the first person that I looked up to and inspired me to become a VTuber thank you for everything I'll always remember for the things you did and for the community TT
Kizuna Ai will always be the OG Vtuber and will be missed by everyone and won't be forgotten kizuna Ai was the first ever Vtuber I watched before nijisanji I'll miss Ai I wish her the best of luck
Cry alot in last part she flew away with her last song 😭❤ Saw alot of VTubers i know too here We'll always remember Kizuna ai Forever VTuber Queen 🌍👸🏼👑❤😭 We'll wait for kizuna ai return, one day, even if it years later Wish all the best in anything she'll do & May all her dreams comes true 🌈✨ Thank you for everything ❤
Despite all the drama we've seen in these past months, we all took our time to watch her Last live, we reached 105k live viewers that time, ty everyone ❤️❤️❤️.
Ai channnnn 😭😭😭 She was the first vtuber I ever knew about and definitely one of the ogs. We'll be waiting for you to come back one day!! ❤️❤️ And thank you for your hard work throughout these past 5 years!❤️(Also thank you so much for the translations❤️)
Omg I miss Kizuna AI the first time I was watching her was at Porter Robinson’s Secret Sky Music Festival that’s when I started listen to her music and her videos I missed her so much but I know she will return and I believe in her keep it up AI Chan I will be waiting for you until your hiatus is over love and miss you Kizuna 😊😏👋🏻🤞🏻👍🏻
It's like a whole clan of ninja cutting onions is in my house right now. But for real though, I'm so happy for everything she's done and this concert conveyed her feelings more than enough. Until she comes back, no matter the changes, I will always welcome her with open arms.
Man, fuck, im gonna miss her. I used to watch her and the other ones like Siro or Mirai Akari a lot back in 2016 but then gradually watched less and less. Holo came around and dragged me back again. Its gonna be sad but whenever she decides to come back I'm sure everyone will welcome her warmly.
People might argue about the OG vtubers being Annoying Orange or the JP weather girl or something else. But everyone should know that Kizuna Ai is the reason why Vtubing has become worldwide phenomenon. This is the girl that inspired and became the sole reason of existence of Hololive, VShojo, Nijisanji, Idol and many more. Be it Sora, Suisei, Gura, Ironmouse, Kobo or any big names. Without the first step from Kizuna Ai, none of the big names will exist. Hopeful for her triumphant return in the future.
years ago, i discovered her. i watched a lot of clips and sometimes even watching vods. i drifted from watching her content last year. and im kinda sad about that, I'll probably catch up haha. that said, im thanking her because she was one of the reasons i got back to art back then.
I mean I will not sad much cause she will move to another form in future but I will miss her the one and the beginning of every vtuber. Thank you Ai-chan!!!
I only just recently found out about Kizuna Ai. I am sad that she is going into hiatus but happy that she seems hopeful for the future. Because of that I will wait for her big return eagerly! I hope you have a wonderful hiatus! Now I have 5 years of content to go catch up on hahaha.
I almost cried on this video even tho i sometime really watch this type of video this is a heartbreaking video just like in the anime where your friends say goodbyes to you and have fun for the last times.
When the end of her last live some tears falled Mainly because she was the firdt vtuber ever And her love and hard work she did and the music she I still rember waking up in 2020 to watch her live streams even tho since she is in japan her live streams for me where in the middle of the night I still remember whe I used to dance her songs with my 4 year old cousin back in 2019 until 2022... The vtuber community will forever doesnt matter if its 2900 or any years in the future miss her :(
I never watched her streams or lives but i get to know her like 2 years ago and i was like "wahh, this avatar is cute" and it brings me to vtuber world
For me, it all started with Ai chan, then Nekomiya Hinata, and Mirai Akari that opened my way to vtuber. Well be here when you rise again and say Hello to the wolrd once again.
I'm crying, It's for a good reason, and she will return but Vtubers in general they brought me happiness, kizuna ai is someone that inspired, kizuna and change the world in some way and I'm grateful for it
I rmmbr first watching her in 2017 when i was 16 and just got into anime. Felt surreal and i kept watching even though i didn't understand a word. Special memory.
Only have watched some clips of her and probably only one actual vod of hers. That said, this hits deep, this hits home. Watched a bit of her last live whenever that was, was wondering what it was all about, some of my questions had just been answered though many still are left lingering if not new. Wherever she is, whatever she's doing, wish her the best. Also wish the best for the rest of the team if ever or so. Hope all of them are doing fine if not swell.
Where did all our time go. Kizuna AI reminiscing on the past really hits hard, all the way back to her first debut. "She doesn't look like a normal youtuber, you know?" Thank you Kizuna AI, for everything that you have done, and I hope you have a good rest.
I've watched Ai-chan for a very long time. I admit that I haven't watched as much as I like in recent times, especially now that I've found Hololive, Ai-chan was my first VTuber, and she'll always have a special place in my heart. I hope she has a very good rest. She deserves it!
I watch her a lot. She was the Beginning of all vtuber. Im sure she will be back again after finishing her anime project. But man....that white room. 5 years sure fly by quickly.
Thank you so much for all you did Ai-chan, you're truly a living legend. You blazed the trail for Vtubing as a whole and did so well every step of the way. Enjoy your rest. Arigato gozaimasu, Ai-Sensei.

The word "hiatus" here could be just a euphemism for "retired". There is also this possibility.
From a white background to stage, time flies.
She is the first one i've discovered, and now we have a lot of people in the Vtuber space. 🙏❤️

It's not a goodbye, just a "see you later!" and when she's back it will be the brightest in the world
She will always be my OG Vtuber and have a special place in my heart.
They call her the first heavenly king of vtubers
Well SHE IS the OG VTuber
she was endearing. not too cringy.
I remember when she got banned by Yt in her early days,must take down several of her videos and try to become more"family friendly"but fail successfully,she rages,she goes into tantrum and swears when got defeated in game,she have no filters showing her emotions, her presence feels so real. feels like, hanging out with a dear friend.

Same, I just joined the vtuber Fandom and I found out abt her, my parent ask me why I was crying.
People might argue about the OG vtubers being Annoying Orange or the JP weather girl or something else.
But everyone should know that Kizuna Ai is the reason why Vtubing has become worldwide phenomenon. This is the girl that inspired and became the sole reason of existence of Hololive, VShojo, Nijisanji, Idol and many more.
Be it Sora, Suisei, Gura, Ironmouse, Kobo or any big names. Without the first step from Kizuna Ai, none of the big names will exist.
Hopeful for her triumphant return in the future.
years ago, i discovered her. i watched a lot of clips and sometimes even watching vods.
i drifted from watching her content last year. and im kinda sad about that, I'll probably catch up haha.
that said, im thanking her because she was one of the reasons i got back to art back then.
I mean I will not sad much cause she will move to another form in future but I will miss her the one and the beginning of every vtuber. Thank you Ai-chan!!!
I hope I'll be alive for her return
I only just recently found out about Kizuna Ai.
I am sad that she is going into hiatus but happy that she seems hopeful for the future.
Because of that I will wait for her big return eagerly!
I hope you have a wonderful hiatus!
Now I have 5 years of content to go catch up on hahaha.
The first vtuber that got me hooked into. Thank u so much kizuna ai.
I almost cried on this video even tho i sometime really watch this type of video this is a heartbreaking video just like in the anime where your friends say goodbyes to you and have fun for the last times.
When the end of her last live some tears falled
Mainly because she was the firdt vtuber ever
And her love and hard work she did and the music she
I still rember waking up in 2020 to watch her live streams even tho since she is in japan her live streams for me where in the middle of the night
I still remember whe I used to dance her songs with my 4 year old cousin back in 2019 until 2022...
The vtuber community will forever doesnt matter if its 2900 or any years in the future miss her :(
I never watched her streams or lives but i get to know her like 2 years ago and i was like "wahh, this avatar is cute" and it brings me to vtuber world
Thank you for everything for me ai-chan
i was crying during live and now im gonna cry again
rest easy queen
If it wasn't for her i wouldn't be where i am now (happy and motivated all day) seeing her leave made me tear up...
i will be waiting for the anime project to released
Go and take more rest or sleep. By the time you're fully updated/upgraded, well be here waiting and sing Hello World with you
For me, it all started with Ai chan, then Nekomiya Hinata, and Mirai Akari that opened my way to vtuber.
Well be here when you rise again and say Hello to the wolrd once again.
Aw bro it's so rare to seeing Ai-chan's clip
thanks bro you are our hero and Ai-chan is the Queen
now it's time to start my number hundreds + times of marathon of her videos.
Good night, Oyabun. I look forward to the day we meet again!
a legend put to rest but not forgotten
o7 I remember the faq and back street boys memes arigathankyou gozaimuch daisenpai
5年間マジで楽しませてもらったよ、、
ずっとずっと待ってる！
いつかキズナアイのようなAIが現実に来るといいなー。
そして一緒に過ごせたら良いな。
I'm crying, It's for a good reason, and she will return but Vtubers in general they brought me happiness, kizuna ai is someone that inspired, kizuna and change the world in some way and I'm grateful for it
I rmmbr first watching her in 2017 when i was 16 and just got into anime. Felt surreal and i kept watching even though i didn't understand a word. Special memory.
Only have watched some clips of her and probably only one actual vod of hers. That said, this hits deep, this hits home.
Watched a bit of her last live whenever that was, was wondering what it was all about, some of my questions had just been answered though many still are left lingering if not new.
Wherever she is, whatever she's doing, wish her the best. Also wish the best for the rest of the team if ever or so. Hope all of them are doing fine if not swell.
Where did all our time go.
Kizuna AI reminiscing on the past really hits hard, all the way back to her first debut.
"She doesn't look like a normal youtuber, you know?"
Thank you Kizuna AI, for everything that you have done, and I hope you have a good rest.
I've watched Ai-chan for a very long time. I admit that I haven't watched as much as I like in recent times, especially now that I've found Hololive, Ai-chan was my first VTuber, and she'll always have a special place in my heart.
I hope she has a very good rest. She deserves it!
I watch her a lot. She was the Beginning of all vtuber. Im sure she will be back again after finishing her anime project. But man....that white room. 5 years sure fly by quickly.
Thank you so much for all you did Ai-chan, you're truly a living legend. You blazed the trail for Vtubing as a whole and did so well every step of the way. Enjoy your rest. Arigato gozaimasu, Ai-Sensei.
The one that really started me down the vtuber path, a true trend setter. I really appreciate her message of thanks and hope with her sign off.
I really wanna her a hug and say "Thank you "
It made me cry.
From her first meme clip "fak you" and now ending it with her bombastic entrance meme. I'll wait for the return of the queen.
Kizuna was the first Virtual Yt ive watched. And its sad... But she will come back that's for sure.
