"All manner of pleasures and diversions were indulged. Wealth can be wonderful. But you know, success can test one's mettle as surely as the strongest adversary." -Akira narrating in the movie, Conan the Barbarian
"I wanted the fame but not the cover of Newsweek,
Oh well, guess beggars can't be choosey,
Wanted to receive attention for my music,
Wanted to be left alone in public, excuse me." -Verse 1, Monster by Eminem and Rihanna
"Fame has a special burden," -Marilyn Monroe
Gawr Gura
In her time, Gawr Guru was the most successful Vtuber of all time. That's no small amount of pressure for a self admitted introvert. She reached a point of no return with the pressure and decided to graduate for her own sanity and well being.

Murasaki Shion
After six and a half years, Murasaki Shion became exhausted with the changes in direction of the company to the point she had started to hate her own hobby which was streaming. She kept up with it due to the support of her fans and then decided to retire from the company and the character when things had changed too much for her to like her job anymore.

Honorable mention: Selen Tatsuki of Nijisanji EN
“ Two things are infinite: the universe and human stupidity.“ - Albert Einstein
"The world breaks everyone, and afterward, some are strong at the broken places." -Ernest Hemingway
"Out of suffering have emerged the strongest souls; the most massive characters are seared with scars." -Kahlil Gibran
Selen Tatsuki was a Vtuber that became a cog of the provably evil company Nijisanji. She was fired under false pretenses and abused by what would be described as a black company (aka literal work you to death for nothing company) in Japanese culture. Nijisanji's handling of everything damaged their brand value in the short run and their corporate name value in the long run.
Selen Tatsuki of Nijisanji EN
Even though she was a major player for their EN branch, Nijisanji stupidly had her pay for all of her projects personally, to the point that she went broke while working for them, and ended up mentally breaking her for a time. Selen left after the firing and returned to the character of Dokibird. Nijisanji then kept up stupid pressure tactics afterwards, until they literally violated the law. I'll put up some videos over the event later.
This was her Selen Tatsuki channel that Nijisanji nuked at her trumped up termination.

Selen was Dokibird before joining Nijisanji and she returned to her indie character. You can find her here:
