This hiatus, which began in November of the previous year, was originally intended to last for a span of several months.
Maeshima attributed this break to her struggles with deteriorating physical health, promising to unveil further details as her recovery progressed.
Additionally, she had initially declared her departure from multiple roles, including Aya Maruyama in BanG Dream! and Ibuki Niijima in the D4DJ franchise.
Interestingly, while both series had initially intended to recast her characters, only the D4DJ franchise proceeded with the recasting decision.
