Historian's archive"I don't know why I'm documenting this. It just feels like...
...there should be a record. Of this moment. Of these heroes.
I want them to be remembered."

The entries on this archive deal with V-tubers who've left us,
to allow a better understanding of their inclusion on the series
and to provide some more context regarding who they were.
The basic criteria for someone's inclusion is they must
have both retired in our world and left the narrative.
Due to this, I recommend only checking it if you are up to date,
otherwise you risk spoilers. (Latest volume: 3)

Hitomi Chris
(人見 クリス)
"One of the enigmatic figures of Hololive's past"

Hitomi Chris was a short-lived member of Hololive's first generation.She debuted on June 2018, and retired on the same month.The circumstances are shrouded in mystery:
some speak of her as a victim, others do so as a culprit.
I like how in V-Saga you are able to think of her both ways:
the main responsible for the events,
or a poor girl who was cut a raw deal.
There's also some who - with varying degrees of seriousness -
refuse to mention her, and insist others don't either.
Frankly, I think turning her into "she-who-must-not-be-named" is silly.
She existed, and whatever happened happened.
No one can delete someone from everyone's memories,
so I think that instead of sweeping the past under the rug,
people should be allowed to do what they will out of it.
Selectively leaving out sad events to paint a happy picture...
...I think someone who managed to draw a merry scene
as part of a series that embraced those painful events
would get to portray a superior form of happiness.

Friend A
(友人A)
"Now, Hololive has grown into a big company loved the world over."

Friend A was first amongst Hololive's managers.
She debuted a model in 2017, and retired at the end of June 2024.
Every story needs a protagonist, every ideal needs its champion.
In Hololive's case that protagonist, that champion, is Tokino Sora.
But every protagonist - every champion since Achilles - needs a best friend.
A is the first letter of the alphabet, and so it was this girl's moniker:
being there for her friend since the start, supporting, encouraging her,
means she was none other than Sora's - and Hololive's - first fan.
Slowly her duties grew, as Hololive did.
She became the face of management to the public,
humanizing a role oft played with anonymous abnegation.
Eventually, much like the talents she watched over, she too gained a junior.
And, much like the idols she helped foster, she too had a graduation.
After a 3-month break to handle family matters,
she announced her retirement to dedicate herself fully to them.
For her little screentime in V-Saga, I sure made A suffer a lot.
Fitting for a manager, is it not? Lots of pain, toil, and occassional joy.
I think the Azuki intermission in 2&5 works as a great send-off for her.Things of interestTribute posted on Hololive's Official channelLast HoloGra episode featuring herArt tag: #絵ーちゃんA-chan's TwitterVirtual YouTuber Wiki page
