Nijisanji English Vtuber Alban Knox Will Go on Hiatus

Anycolor announced on the Nijisanji English social media account that Vtuber Alban Knox will be on hiatus starting on June 3, 2024. Alban himself also shared a comment about it and appeared on a stream to discuss his break.

First, here’s the Anycolor statement about the break. It noted that while Alban Knox won’t be streaming during his break, the Nijisanji Vtuber will still appear on social media from time to time. It also noted that this is an indefinite hiatus that could end at the end of September 2024 or beginning of October 2024, but there’s no exact confirmation. Both this statement and his own noted the time off is to “pursue personal projects.”

Here’s Alban’s brief statement on social media about the break. He noted that while it is sad, his fans shouldn’t be scared about the time off. 

Here is the full Alban Knox stream going over the Nijisanji EN Vtuber’s upcoming break. In part of his one hour announcement, he said, “Recently, some of you might know, I’m trying to gather a creation team. And with this team, I’m going to be working together with them to put a lot of cool things together not just for me, but I’m hoping I can do a lot of cool things for Niji EN as well.”

Alban debuted with Nijisanji back in February 2022. He’s a part of Noctyx alongside Fulgur Ovid, Sonny Brisko, Uki Violeta, and Yugo Asuma. He has about 694,000 followers on YouTube.
