Cover added that comments by Haato during recent streams have been cut in such a way to spread rumors and defamatory comments based on speculation about other talents. The company will take civil and criminal action toward those who continue to take part in the spread of rumors and defamatory comments.

Cover and Haato have not announced a return date.
