There will be more later. They can't graduate simultaneously and have to wait. Me and some other people have known this since the issue of A-chan resigning. There are many issues in the company right now. I can't tell this to public so you must find it yourself.
Makes me remember that short AmeSame comic I once read, where Ame never came back from a time/dimension-travel and Gura would wait every day for her like Hachiko...
Amelia pioneered and laid the foundation that is Hololive EN today. She made things that seemed impossible possible and created more content not just for herself but for all the girls myth or not than what people or the company expected. Amelia Watson will always be the best detective across the infinite timelines that she has been.
This is what I hope is most remembered about her. Her streams were always fun, but the stuff she was doing behind the scenes to make sure Myth and English V-Tubing as a whole is what her real mark on the industry is. Sounds cliche, but genuinely a trailblazer who helped change the game.
since Nene's hiatus, hololive never use black text on white paper tweet announcement anymore. I think that was in the middle of thie year. Aqua's gradutaion also like this, blue backgound with her logo/oshimark on the title.
The fanfiction story of Ame died in old but her friends stay the same... Never thought this is closed to that Also the entire Vtuber Agency, not just from JP branch of Holo, but other agency like Phase Connect and as well and even Doki and Maid Mint Ame truly inspired many
Coco said ame was the perfect choice to be her successor. 4 years grinding making fun content. Studio prepping, tech work. Memorable events she put up shows so much how much effort she put in. She really is the heart and leader of holo myth. Im gonna miss her
I've always wondered why I haven't heard of more semi-graduations. Like surely some people don't want to actively be the company's idol, but are willing to do cameos.
I think semi-graduations are better than graduations. It feels things are wrapping up in a more positive way than a sad farewell. There's probably a lot of reasons as to why semi-graduations don't happen like copyright and branding. Some vtubers might no longer want to be associated with the company so they completely cut ties. The graduating party will probably have to sign a whole different contract with another set of terms and conditions if they want to do a semi-graduation. Plus, the liver has to consider their future plans such as creating a new vtuber model. How does her new vtuber self potentially conflict with her Hololive self? Regardless, I'm glad that Hololive and Ame were able to reach an agreement for a semi-graduation. They are definitely paving a whole new way of graduating from vtuber corporations.
Coco was given a similar graduation where she was allowed to appear as a guest at certain events if she wanted and they said she’d still appear in Hololive Alt. This feels like a more serious and official version of that
we don't know the exact nature of ame's 'semi-graduation', but one thing i'm pretty sure of, is that if Ame stays affiliated, she's probably much less likely to be moving on to either a new company or going solo
She already basically was more of an organizer of events ,so its not surprising she wants to probably have a background role where she makes projects happening .
Ame will forever be a legend of EN Vtubing. Somehow, I'm kinda worried about Goomba now. I hope she is ok. I will miss AmeSame interactions so much. They have always been my favourite Hololive duo.
@@maxcrss2845 Ah yes a new model definitely means the talent is staying for a long time. Right Vesper? :P I don't think Gura is leaving, just saying nothing can be seen as a sign of safety.
At least we have the comfort of knowing that we will most probably see her again someday! Like, she's not gone gone forever. THAT is ABSOLUTELY HUGE. Keep that in mind. In the meantime, we'll be cheering for her and wishing her the best in the new path she's walking ♥
since Gura started streaming less often and going on long breaks, i was preparing for the graduation of one of the Myths, and i was preparing to accept the news that it would be Gura. it hurt me, but the recent activity calmed me down, Breaking Dimensions, ENreco, HoloGTA, it was wonderful and gave me confidence in the future of Hololive. and the news of her graduation was like a kick in the balls, i couldn't believe it, i thought maybe it was just an indefinite break, but no, it's a farewell to the legend of an entire era. i am incredibly sad, her innovations have become one of the pillars of the current Hololive, and i understand that we are not losing her, but it really hurts not to see her on stage anymore.
Hololive won't let Gura go even if she wanted to. She's too much of a cash cow. *Insert Deadpool leaning into whisper into Gura's ear* -"til you're NINETY!"
@@sleeplessknight99 that's true, but I don't think Cover will be kept in the same conditions as Disney does, after all Cover is not Niji. I don't remember exactly who said it, like Fubuki "as long as I'm still here, it means Hololive is on the right path" (maybe not in those words, but it conveys the meaning)
Unfortunately a uptick in activity without any apparent reason is often the precursor to a graduation because talents look at their bucketlist and finally do the stuff they always wanted to... maybe the AmeSame spelling bee was such a thing 🥲
Today sucks. My fish died, my car’s undercarriage is falling apart and Ame is stopping streaming. Leave it to Ame to find a unique way to graduate. Thanks so much for all the good times, my favorite detective
She was she found out while trucking and when she finished playing an hour or 2 later and found out the details she cried a bit but was still positive peo despite being upset
honestly i'm more surprised that other company vtubers haven't done the same before. while being rare, there have been cases where talents had to step down due to personal reasons and/or health, instead of the usual conflict of interest with the company. considering they can't use ame's model for anything else anyway, it's smarter to just put her on a indefinite hiatus, and see how things will develop in the future, rather than terminating the contract completely.
It's actually not that much of a surprise. Amelia was the Myth member that I watched the least. But from what I saw, she always struck me as more of the technical minded, behind the scenes type as opposed to someone featured on center stage. Of course she'd be the one to step away first. I'm glad that both she and the company have evolved to the point that there's a better role for her now. She's going to do great.
(In the theater of time) *sitting on the front row watching the screen* Ame: We did it... Myth's Good Ending *Sheds a tear* ...Thank you *A-Chan leans forward from the seat behind* A-Chan: Aren't you sad leaving them? Is this really a "Good Ending"? Ame: Well.... they'll do just fine... I know they will *Forces a smile* A-Chan: Where are you going next? *Ame looks down to her hand holding the pocket watch* Ame: I don't know, wherever time takes me next I guess A-Chan: *Smiles with a knowing look* I'm sure you'll meet them again another time Ame: I know *Takes off detective cap and both continues to watch the screen*
Well as the joke goes, she does have the shortest lifespan out of everyone in Myth... So, it makes sense that she would "retire" first lol... On a more serious note: 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
I wouldn't be surprised if she's becoming some kind of freelance production business, with all the crazy behind-the-scenes she has done over the last 4 years. The first 3D Myth collab with a whole map and rooms for each girl plus the smol Walfie models, then the Halloween stream with that map updated plus all the new models for all 11 girls then PLUS the music video, and so much more.
If true that Amelia Watson prefers to be an organizer rather than the forefront in Hololive, its just like the sherlock Holmes stories, Watson being a major support character to the mystery solvng.
Well... some detectives can come back after falling down waterfalls, so it's a comfort knowing she can come back after something that sounds far more benign. Still- she brightened up my days with her videos, and so I can only hope that wherever she goes and whatever she does, she continues to brighten someone elses day.
Never really followed or watched Ame, but i'll still be sad to see her go. The number of times a collab started/ended with some variation of "thanks for putting this together, Ame" I don't know if you could ever hope to quantify how much she did for HoloEN.
Was watching her GTA stream yesterday when she ended her stream early. She seems distracted with something and thought i hope she doing ok. Ame is such a character and i hope she gets a nice rest from the stress.
The way I read the contrast between Ame's announcement and Aqua's graduation: Aqua will likely return to streaming in another form, leading a simpler life. That's why it was about cutting ties so she can relaunch. Amelia is getting involved in other things. It could be other avenues in tech, or just raising a family. But she is not going to be streaming, so she didn't need to cut ties and she can feature now and again for certain things.
Exactly. If a vtuber cuts ties, that's usually because they're going to reincarnate or return to a past version. Ame will only be Ame in the vtuber space.
I mean this would also give Ame the time to relaunch as an indie too. Hololive doesn't prevent their members from doing that. See: Calli. Also she apparently had stated pretty recently that she had upgraded her streaming set up.
@@Pandoholic Yes, that's what's puzzling me a bit. She talked about how she just had people in to complete her studio, and she bought a new mic, and she upgraded her streaming setup... and then she just says she's going to stop streaming? Seems like she never stopped preparing to be a better content creator. I really hope we'll see her in another form, not just a few times per year in Hololive projects.
I'll miss hearing her gremlin noises and being able to scream AMEEEEE, but she really shines in the technical aspects of vtubing and content creation. While Ame has improved greatly in singing and dancing, I think focusing on those aspects will be best in the long run. I wish her the best and really hope to hear more from her in this Hololive affiliate side💛
Soon to be gone from the spotlight but gave her immense range in finding moms to ground pound in return. She has achieved full power that none can match her.
I've never nearlly understood why Vtubers who graduate and arn't fired have never been able to come back for special events and stuff. So hearing she will show up for that sort of stuff makes sense to me. My Money is on Gura doing something similar too.
Yeah, I think Ame might have gone ahead and lit the path leading out for Gura. Gura is similar to Ame in that although she likes Hololive her social anxiety makes her poorly suited for the spotlight. You can tell Goomba has been having problems for the last year or so.
It's because they don't really want to. Coco was told directly by yagoo that she can make appearances whenever she liked, yet we never saw her again. The option is there though. Also Gura is in it for the idol experience. She wouldn't do this.
It was more than a little vague in the English announcement but the Japanese announcement very specifically says that she remains a talent affiliated with the agency as Amelia Watson still, not a retirement or moving to a staff or management position. She’s just going to no longer stream or handle her social media on a daily basis
My 10 cents is she is starting her own company. It will specialize in VR/motion capture. It will all so help people run events like Charity streams and game 'events' like GTA rp servers. A full on Internet Studio that will work in online productions.
It honestly is mind boggling and impressive that Ame had people from even outside of Holo and Other Companies saluting her on this, it takes a certain rep and a hell of a lot of respect to be this influential towards the entire industry, its like the world stooped to stare and give their respects, Ame, wherever or whatever she does next, it will be great, as for now... let's enjoy what we little borrowed time we have with her.
I didn’t know what a vtuber was before Ame’s debut stream popped up in my recommended. She changed my life without a doubt. Thanks for everything Watson!
Yagoo has said that graduated members are always welcome back. While none so far have taken him up on that offer, it seems Ame has. If I had to guess who would have been the first to leave Myth it would have been Ame or Gura, so I'm not exactly surprised. But that doesn't mean it's any less sad. I'm happy to see that she will be back for the occasional special event in the future.
Honestly, I hope with Ame’s unique way of not graduating it introduces a new way for Coco to make an appearance. Granted, that might be problematic, I feel that Ame is making history both in V-tubing and Hololive as a whole.
Coco entrusted Ame with the formula for AsaCoco, Ame created Watson Concoction from the formula... I wonder who will be next to "take the baton", so to speak? Godspeed, kawaii little Time Detective! We'll meet again!
This is hard to hear. I wish we knew what they mean by an affiliate. Prior graduates were done entirely, and she isn't moving over to staff. Sadly, things like school are based around 4 years, so part of me thought that this would be when we might see some shake up.
I almost created an account on that horrid bird app just to talk about this. Not many people I know follow Vtubers. Ame and Myth appeared when I needed them the most. I’m a garbage fan that can’t afford their merch or memberships, but I truly hope they find happiness and better fans who can support them
Don't call yourself garbage, even if we can't afford the merch having people join in and watch/talk, share and even clip comment or watch said clips grows the community
Bro, if she builds up the Ame-studio in a more professional way she can get immense money out of that and already has a massive client with Cover and their holoEN-expansion.
Long ago, Ame mentioned having lost her purpose after losing a loved one, and that she was thankful to have been part of hololive to spread a bit of joy. I hope she has found a new purpose.
It can’t be understated how much an impact Amelia has had on EN vtubing. Her creativity inspired others to do vtubing and put Myth and EN vtubing on the map. I am going to miss this cute little gremlin 💛. We’ll miss you Ame.
Ame deserves all the love and props for brining EN on the spotlight! I know it’s a tall order but I hope EN bros can come out and show up with the same energy as Aquas Graduation
Ame had an amazing run! I used to watch her a lot for her debut and really the myth member I resonated with the most! I hope her knew role treats her well and hopefully we get to see her again someday!
Even at the final phase of her Holo vtuber career she trailblazed her way to a new option, a new way of doing things. I think some stuff in her personal life and other things made her consider to stop her activities after 4 entire years with HoloMyth BUT at the same time still wanted to stay in Hololive/HoloMyth and help the members even participating with them in very special occasions. Tbh, this way of concluding her general activities as Holo Vtuber is brilliant, perfect new way for Amelia Watson, the Hololive TRAILBLAZER vtuber
Since the beginning of 2024, I've been waking up to this kind of news. Mel, A-Chan, Aqua, and now Amelia, why am I always waking up to this being the first news I get?
Even if Ame wasn't your Oshi, she could easily have been YOUR Oshi's Oshi. So let's all work together to make her conclusion a memorable one for the storybooks that will reverberate in every single timeline. All those Vtubers' reaction, especially those within Hololive itself, imply that she did a lot more behind the scenes that we could possibly fathom. I don't even remember if she ever collabed with Noel and Akirose, yet they still felt like thanking her in English. That's how wide-reaching her work was within the company. Let's all get this party trending within the Vtuber community for the next 10 days as a farewell gift!
Changes like these are inevitable, but nonetheless scary. I think we should find comfort in that Ame wouldn't have made this decision if she didn't believe she could do bigger and better things in the future. It's the end of one chapter, but the beginning of another💛
Leave it to Ame for finding an entire new way to leave. What a woman, nothing she does is ordinary and i wouldn't have it any other way
And also kudos to Yagoo for being flexible enough to accept this new form of graduation/cooperation without burning any bridges.
@@MrTrancelator Trust the Yagoo!
@@MadCapybaraRXIn Yagoo we trust.

I remember when Coco was graduating, Ame called her an Icon. After these 4 years, I think we can all say the same about Ame, too.
Absolutely.
She's a trailblazer, 100% an Icon both on and off-screen.
she left the ameway, my respects to her
Believe in the Ameway...
When no one noes da way, only Ame noes da way.. the Ameway.
We must be her Amebelievers.. she is always great with her Ameway. She had carved her own way.
She left by creating a 3rd option of leaving that is not termination/graduation. Expected of her.
She is leaving Ame-cably

She can serve as a service provider with her studio. She can appear time to time .I think it's the smartest move I have ever seen.

The myth, the legend.
Before she retired/graduate/whatever-she'll-call-it, she dropped one last thing for us to be amazed by...

Oh no! 😢
This is really sad. Myth has continued unbroken for 4 straight years, they kinda felt immortal.
15:56 as Merry said, another timeline need her😢
I really hope Gura is okay, they were best friends and this has to hit her hard.
Sadly, all good things must come to an end. Let's just be happy she was able to end it in her own way, the Ame way
There will be more later. They can't graduate simultaneously and have to wait. Me and some other people have known this since the issue of A-chan resigning. There are many issues in the company right now. I can't tell this to public so you must find it yourself.
Makes me remember that short AmeSame comic I once read, where Ame never came back from a time/dimension-travel and Gura would wait every day for her like Hachiko...
I read the title thinking Ame had single handedly stopped all of HoleEN 😅
Don't worry shes merciful
Sounds like something she is capable to do
If she wanted to should 100% could
I did too, and believed it because Ame is the Mike Tyson of VTubers.

Damn. That's a new way to say she's graduating and is just going to be appearing in some random cameos.

@@leonmystique9372 that's an interesting thought...
I'll miss hearing her gremlin noises and being able to scream AMEEEEE, but she really shines in the technical aspects of vtubing and content creation. While Ame has improved greatly in singing and dancing, I think focusing on those aspects will be best in the long run. I wish her the best and really hope to hear more from her in this Hololive affiliate side💛
It's times like this I greatly appreciate what False does.
Will always be grateful for the way she coordinated 3D events during 2020 and 2021 travel restrictions.
Soon to be gone from the spotlight but gave her immense range in finding moms to ground pound in return.
She has achieved full power that none can match her.
Thanks for all the memories Ame 😭
ame doko meme is real
I've never nearlly understood why Vtubers who graduate and arn't fired have never been able to come back for special events and stuff. So hearing she will show up for that sort of stuff makes sense to me. My Money is on Gura doing something similar too.
Yeah, I think Ame might have gone ahead and lit the path leading out for Gura. Gura is similar to Ame in that although she likes Hololive her social anxiety makes her poorly suited for the spotlight. You can tell Goomba has been having problems for the last year or so.
It's because they don't really want to. Coco was told directly by yagoo that she can make appearances whenever she liked, yet we never saw her again. The option is there though. Also Gura is in it for the idol experience. She wouldn't do this.
I know she would be the first to leave, but the time she announced it...
Let's cheer on her to find her AMEway!
o7 ame
It was more than a little vague in the English announcement but the Japanese announcement very specifically says that she remains a talent affiliated with the agency as Amelia Watson still, not a retirement or moving to a staff or management position. She’s just going to no longer stream or handle her social media on a daily basis
I sincerely Hope GURA her BEST FRIEND is taking this well. I must hear from her in all this because those two are so insanely close
My 10 cents is she is starting her own company. It will specialize in VR/motion capture. It will all so help people run events like Charity streams and game 'events' like GTA rp servers. A full on Internet Studio that will work in online productions.
She's already said she's moving to a behind the scenes role not leaving
@@bashamd96she also said she’s not becoming hololive staff
I'm thinking she's becoming a part-timer so she can pursue some smaller personal projects.
It honestly is mind boggling and impressive that Ame had people from even outside of Holo and Other Companies saluting her on this, it takes a certain rep and a hell of a lot of respect to be this influential towards the entire industry, its like the world stooped to stare and give their respects, Ame, wherever or whatever she does next, it will be great, as for now... let's enjoy what we little borrowed time we have with her.
Some of them for the "clout' because some of them dont even read the note carefully.
AmeLegend! Good luck in your future endeavors
I didn’t know what a vtuber was before Ame’s debut stream popped up in my recommended. She changed my life without a doubt. Thanks for everything Watson!
Yagoo has said that graduated members are always welcome back. While none so far have taken him up on that offer, it seems Ame has.
If I had to guess who would have been the first to leave Myth it would have been Ame or Gura, so I'm not exactly surprised. But that doesn't mean it's any less sad. I'm happy to see that she will be back for the occasional special event in the future.
Honestly, I hope with Ame’s unique way of not graduating it introduces a new way for Coco to make an appearance. Granted, that might be problematic, I feel that Ame is making history both in V-tubing and Hololive as a whole.
Amelia: "Reasons are not private or personal."
Also Amelia: Gives no reasons.
its appearantly its external reason
@@CasualStreamerSerpent Her abnormality will live on in each of us.
*Leaves in Ameway*
Chad Ame
I look forward to future collaborations with Ame Productions
I hope she pops up for cameos once in a while if she's still affiliated
Coco entrusted Ame with the formula for AsaCoco, Ame created Watson Concoction from the formula... I wonder who will be next to "take the baton", so to speak?
Godspeed, kawaii little Time Detective! We'll meet again!
This is hard to hear. I wish we knew what they mean by an affiliate. Prior graduates were done entirely, and she isn't moving over to staff.
Sadly, things like school are based around 4 years, so part of me thought that this would be when we might see some shake up.
Ui mama is an affiliate.
Man this is a new era. Its going to be bizarre with Ame not there regularly
Ame = 💛
Founder of the Ameway,
Pioneer of Vtuber Trends,
A Queen Of Vtuber world.
WTF is Ame doing? I have no idea, but I wish the best for her.
first EN vtuber i watched and the one who got me into vtubers, im glad i was able to watch her all these years. see ya, ame.
Idk man she’s the only reason I got into vtubers to begin with. This hurts so much
I almost created an account on that horrid bird app just to talk about this. Not many people I know follow Vtubers.
Ame and Myth appeared when I needed them the most. I’m a garbage fan that can’t afford their merch or memberships, but I truly hope they find happiness and better fans who can support them
Don't call yourself garbage, even if we can't afford the merch having people join in and watch/talk, share and even clip comment or watch said clips grows the community
Thank you for this video, False! I'm happy to see all the love and support that Ame is receiving from all of the community 😢 and also thank you Ame 💛
I can feel gonathans feelings now
I like that Amelia wants to continue working with Cover. To me it shows that Cover is still a decent company to work with at the very least.
Feels like she wants to create some kind of VR studio company and work with cover helping EN.
Bro, if she builds up the Ame-studio in a more professional way she can get immense money out of that and already has a massive client with Cover and their holoEN-expansion.
That studio could change Vtubing if not tech forever if it pans out.
So… semi retirement?
From what I understand. It's not exactly a graduation, but some sort of being put or transferred in another line of work from the same workplace.
Ame always struck me as the most normal of the 5 of them. Good for her for solidifying her place within the pantheon
Long ago, Ame mentioned having lost her purpose after losing a loved one, and that she was thankful to have been part of hololive to spread a bit of joy. I hope she has found a new purpose.
With Ame and Aqua leaving for similar sounding reasons I cant help but wonder how much Hololive has changed internally over the last year or two.
So, basically a graduation
It can’t be understated how much an impact Amelia has had on EN vtubing. Her creativity inspired others to do vtubing and put Myth and EN vtubing on the map. I am going to miss this cute little gremlin 💛. We’ll miss you Ame.
Feels more like Ame is moving into an A-Chan sort of role. She's stopping channel activities but is still going to be around
As long as we remember her, she'll never really be gone.
That is the Ameway.
Ame deserves all the love and props for brining EN on the spotlight! I know it’s a tall order but I hope EN bros can come out and show up with the same energy as Aquas Graduation
*Angel beats playing in the background as Ame fades out in Holo EN group picture...
Well I hope Ame gets a sendoff in the HoloGTA when it ends with all the JP members
This one really came out of left field, hoping for the best for her future proyects.
One of the OGs of Holo EN
Ame had an amazing run! I used to watch her a lot for her debut and really the myth member I resonated with the most! I hope her knew role treats her well and hopefully we get to see her again someday!
I wish Amelia nothing but all the best in her future endeavors moving forward.
Always imagined Ame as the tech priest of the group since 2020.
I think ame is cooking something remember guys ame is unpredictable.
The flame that burns twice as bright burns half as long, huh?
Even at the final phase of her Holo vtuber career she trailblazed her way to a new option, a new way of doing things.
I think some stuff in her personal life and other things made her consider to stop her activities after 4 entire years with HoloMyth BUT at the same time still wanted to stay in Hololive/HoloMyth and help the members even participating with them in very special occasions. Tbh, this way of concluding her general activities as Holo Vtuber is brilliant, perfect new way for Amelia Watson, the Hololive TRAILBLAZER vtuber
Since the beginning of 2024, I've been waking up to this kind of news. Mel, A-Chan, Aqua, and now Amelia, why am I always waking up to this being the first news I get?
Even if Ame wasn't your Oshi, she could easily have been YOUR Oshi's Oshi. So let's all work together to make her conclusion a memorable one for the storybooks that will reverberate in every single timeline.
All those Vtubers' reaction, especially those within Hololive itself, imply that she did a lot more behind the scenes that we could possibly fathom. I don't even remember if she ever collabed with Noel and Akirose, yet they still felt like thanking her in English. That's how wide-reaching her work was within the company.
Let's all get this party trending within the Vtuber community for the next 10 days as a farewell gift!
Changes like these are inevitable, but nonetheless scary. I think we should find comfort in that Ame wouldn't have made this decision if she didn't believe she could do bigger and better things in the future.
It's the end of one chapter, but the beginning of another💛
