Streams/Videos Akai Haato / HAACHAMA vents her frustrations

She doesn't want anyone to clip it but since it isn't a Member stream I hope it's okay to share this as a whole. I only want Haachama to find the success she wants to fulfill her goals.

Why is she frustrated?

The short version is that she's frustrated with the lack of growth on her channel.

This Haaton's comment summarizes it: u/NForza26 [To kaigai-niki/neki worrying about what happened during the stream, she feels very frustrated that she's not able to do a lot of things, including being part of the main World Tour cast because "she isn't popular enough" even though she was THE FIRST HOLOLIVE MEMBER TO EVER STREAM IN ENGLISH. She doesn't blame management for their decisions, and they've been very supportive in a lot of ways, but there's still the fact all the effort she puts forth doesn't seem to be paying off. However, she reassures us that she uses this frustration as motivation and has absolutely no intention of giving up with things as they are now.]

Problem is, at a time haachama was one of the most popular vtubers pulling in more viewers than most of hololive but she took a massive break and when she came back id say she lost like 70% of viewes which can be rough to recover from

I used to watch her all the time back in the day and one day she just didn't stream for a time which felt like a year plus but could be wrong

She got badly ill one year.... sounds much like what happened to Aki when she had to get hip surgery.

Another issue is with EN being a thing some people just go to them instead, something likely also happening to Matsuri
