Nijisanji Vtuber Petra Gurin Explains Absence and Hiatus

Nijisanji Vtuber Petra Gurin, who hasn’t streamed since July 2024, took to social media to officially explain her absence and confirm she is on hiatus. She cited the demands of being a full-time student to explain why her recent inactivity. She also didn’t offer a concrete window for when she might return beyond “early 2025.”

Petra began her announcement by noting that she’s now a full-time student, which affected her streaming schedule as a Vtuber. As such, she said that for her physical and mental health, she’d be on break until “likely early 2025.” However, she did note that it isn’t a complete blackout. She said that she will be at Nijifes. For reference, Nijisanji Fest 2025 is being held February 21-23, 2024 at Makuhari Messe in Chiba City, Japan. 

Here is her full statement. She also specifically described it as “not scary.”

The past Petra Gurin Nijisanji stream happened back on July 19, 2024, as the Vtuber did a handcam showcase of merchandise with Rosemi Lovelock. It also involved a puzzle of them being done as well. You can catch that below:

It isn’t a surprise to see Petra prioritizing her studies. Prior to the unannounced hiatus, one of her last streams involved a zatsudan. During it, she talked with her fans while she studied and took breaks. 

Petra Gurin has been a Nijisanji English Vtuber since July 2021. She was part of the Obsydia generation alongside Selen Tatsuki and Rosemi Lovelock.
