Idk. Got nothing against the other kizuna ais. And I don't really want to come to any rash conclusions considering a lot of talk about the situation are assumptions.

My problem is with the way it’s being managed. Also the new characters add zero new personality. Both of them are literally bad imitations — saying the same jokes, harping on the same character tropes, repeating the same lines that the original AI improvised and developed into the character over time. Even the iconic “grating screech” instead of a cutesy anime girl scream. All elements of the character developed by the original, and are just fan service and pandering in the hands of these two. They’re bad copies that add nothing and take everything.

level 2

I don't have nothing against new VAs too, personally. It's just that I don't like the fact they're replacing the original VA for the character, it feels too strange. It's the same thing when they change the VA for a tv character.

Argh, this post hurts. :(

I'm sticking around in the hopes they will somehow bring her back one last time. This picture really hit me in the feels.

The company behind Kizuna Ai, Activ8, sent an announcement about her situation.

There are two languages:

Japanese version:

Simplified Chinese version:

The announcement is too long, TL;DR version:

Original Ai will focus only on music production while the 2th, 3th ... Ai do other type of theme.

She is not retired but will has less activity.
