Weird that she would abandon a 100k+ identity for a rebrand when her old IP already had a serious redesign. It was bothering me where she went when she disappeared out of the blue. One of her notable collabs was being the first to collab with Neuro-sama.

Hi. It seems that you missed MinikoMews announcement from a few days ago about why she left her past life behind. In essence she was in an abusive relationship where her partner controlled every aspect of her streaming carriere, so she wanted to leave that behind to move forward in her life.

I did. I don't use twitter and didn't know it was happening. How did everyone else find out about the stream anyway? I only found it when I was on the fandom wiki and noticed that Miyune's page was recently edited. Weird that there wasn't more effort to redirect her old fans to her new IP.

I'm glad you managed to find her again. One more disappearance case solved.

Yeah, I also figured out where a OneView I was following for a bit ended up in PixelLink, so good week for rediscoveries.
