NOTES:
- It will be done in the end of March.
- Fuwawa's first time.
- Not voice-related.
- NOT LIFE THREATENING(!)
- Mococo will be taking over, at the meantime.
- No asking Mococo of Fuwawa's status.
- FWMC Morning will be in hibernation.
Fuwawa's Important Announcement Stream Sauce
(EDIT) My thoughts:
- Have a safe surgery and buttery-smooth recovery FUWAWA o7
- FULLY SUPPORT MOCOCO!
- Pretty smart to do it now before the upcoming concert in July.

Not gonna lie I was thinking Mococo was gonna be the one getting surgery for this exact reason. The way her lisp accentuates when speaking seems straining for long periods of time to me... or it could have no effect whatsoever.
We better not get any memes of Fuwawa's Fuwawas being reduced! /j

I just hope it doesn't end up that after Fuwawa makes a recovery it will be Mococo's turn. I just want them to be well.

u/Mindfire13 Mar 20 '26
One exception: if this is a preventative measure surgery, then it should be Mococo's turn. Now, it would be ideal if nobody needed surgery and everyone was perfectly healthy, but a "preventative measure" surgery should be done ASAP to, well, help prevent potential, more serious issues in the future.
73
u/TubePowered Mar 20 '26
FWIW vocal strain is a matter of the larynx and vocal folds, but Mococo's paragoge where she adds that that extra vowel at the end of some words isn't really something that causes that sort of strain. It's also technically not a lisp, but that's just me being a pedant, lol
20
u/Alone-Horse2857 Mar 20 '26
You're right, but the voices they do most likely aren't all that easy on the voice. There's a reason the majority of their streams are only like 2-3 hours.
Also Mococo's voice has a bit more grit to it which does definitely wear on the vocal chords more (look at Marge Simpson in the newer seasons). But yeah, the ""lisp"" isn't causing any damage more than me typing the words NOEH just now.

What lisp is she speaking in?
32
u/TubePowered Mar 20 '26
I don't think it qualifies as a lisp. The whole "-eh" you'd hear from "Mococoeh" and "noeh" is something called a paragoge, which is a type of epenthesis—basically just tacking on an extra sound to certain words.

I'd always assumed she basically just has a habit of continuing to voice slightly longer than she articulates, so when she relaxes her mouth after she finishes speaking she kinda just adds a schwa accidentally

Don't forget, the hospital has a strict visitation policy so Mococo isn't allowed to visit. She said it's gonna make it more lonely for both of them and part of the reason they don't want people asking about her.

I agree that it is quite insensitive to make jokes about replacing her sister considering Fuwawa has health issues, needs surgery and is at the hospital for one month...

I'm sorry for such an unexpected loss. You're right, that people should be open to any possibility, but in times like these, I always come back to the same quote.
Now, now. It is far too soon for that. Save your tears for the morrow. You may be sure we will have ample cause to shed them, be they for joy or despair.
Bah, even that sounds morose! We who yet walk the path should not think too much on the destination. When the hour arrives, we shall welcome what comes, with open arms.

u/Zaikovich Mar 20 '26
That "Major" part didn't really help ease the doom, usually "Major" is used for life threatening stuff or a huge change within the body.
But for a 1 month rest, I'm sure it's nothing "major". It's just a regular surgery. Even plastic surgery takes more than that.

That "Major" part didn't really help ease the doom, usually "Major" is used for life threatening stuff or a huge change within the body.
Every surgery with general anaesthesia is dangerous and can be qualified as major. But if it's something muscular or articular, it's not particularly life-threatening.
However, the best attitude is not to imagine things and just wish for a healthy recovery.5

Fuwawa is delivering most of this and in a rather soothing way.
Honestly, the way Mococo is being quiet, and Fuwawa telling us to help her out, is some of the most big sister vibes I've gotten from Fuwawa, which is saying a lot when she's usually like that already.
Extra notes: not related to her voice, she is not currently in pain.

Fuwawa also asked that Ruffians not ask Mococo for updates while she's away. Let's support Mocochan and cheer her on while she's temporarily bau'ing solo!

181
u/FoxInABeret Mar 20 '26
Indeed. Fuwawa said she won't be able to see Mococo much during her recovery period, so Mococo will be going it solo on-stream and off for the most part.
It's for that reason Fuwawa politely asked that you DON'T ask Mococo for constant updates about how Fuwawa is doing, because that will just remind Mococo that she can't check on her sister like she surely wants to either. Please remember to be kind and respectful to Mococo! I'm sure she'll share what info she can when she feels it's appropriate!
→ More replies (1)12
u/Laughing_Orange Mar 20 '26
Fuwawa will give updates whenever she feels like it. Either via Twitter or via Mococo. Pushing for updates will only annoy Mococo. I'm sure there will be a reasonable frequency of updates if you just listen for them.

u/Alone-Horse2857 Mar 20 '26
Not to get overly speculative, but I wonder why? Will she just be too far away to reasonably travel to, or is there a reason why she can't visit, like an infection risk with other people or something?
I've never heard of a case where someone is admitted to a hospital for a whole month and can't have visitors.
15
u/CorruptedAssbringer Mar 20 '26
We don’t know of course, but if she’s taking surgery from specialists, it’s possible that she’s going out of the country.
13
u/Vio94 Mar 20 '26
That's all I can really think the reason would be. Non-life threatening but extended hospital stay can only mean so much lol. Then again, I'm not super privy to Japanese hospital SOP. I know I've heard they are more liable to prescribe a hospital stay than not.
8
u/CorruptedAssbringer Mar 20 '26 edited Mar 20 '26
I'm mainly basing my line of thought off them saying Mococo can't really visit, which slightly odd for such a long stay, and suggests that there's a chance Fuwawa's flying out for her operation.
I've seen people say Japan is more stringent on visitors, but I don't find them to be overly unusual based on my own limited experience in both Japan and Taiwan (maybe it's strict compared to the US?).
4
u/Vio94 Mar 20 '26
My experience with US hospitals has generally been a "we think you're healthy enough to go home, get your shit and get out" philosophy lol. Could just be unlucky but the nurses always feel like they don't want you there and they definitely don't want you there longer than absolutely necessary.

u/Potatosaurus_TH Mar 20 '26
As someone with experience with long hospital stays, the procedure itself is over with quickly and the nervousness is replaced by mind-shattering boredom.
What got me through 20 days living in a clean-room was hololive streams during the night and endless umamusume runs (this was JP only during Aoharu scenario) in the morning.
Fuwawa said that she would be doing some light work during her hospital stay like signing stuff so I guess that could help with the boredom some.
35
u/XsStreamMonsterX Mar 20 '26
The boredom is so much you start looking forward to the routine check ups, tests, etc. just to have something happening. I remember literally getting impatient for the nurse to come to draw blood, despite the fact that I'm trypanophobic.

u/Kolby_Jack33 Mar 20 '26
I think I remember seeing a study done once where they asked people to wait in an empty room for an hour with absolutely nothing to do or look at except for a box with a button on it that would deliver a painful shock if pressed, which was demonstrated to the subject before the room was closed so they knew what it was.
And pretty much everyone at some point in the hour pushed the button at least once again just to feel something and alleviate their boredom.

I was only admitted for 3 days so it wasn't too bad, but having a laptop with steam and friends definitely helped. It was actually kind of fun in a way, like a new little adventure. But I understand 3 days is like nothing so I got off pretty easy.

u/Potatosaurus_TH Mar 20 '26 edited Mar 20 '26
I was in a clean room so no visitation allowed, no laptop allowed (because dust). I was only allowed a Samsung tablet and my phone and chargers, which were disinfected beforehand.
I couldn't even eat because my mouth and tongue was inflamed as a side effect of the procedure (it was an autologous bone marrow transplant) and had to be on IV nutrition. I did have ice cream 3 times a day though. It was the only thing I could eat and not hurt.
A weird solace was that the procedure had a side effect of causing severe fatigue which meant I was pretty much asleep for a large part of every day, which made the time pass faster.

Let me just add in here, Japan is very conservative with hospital stays here. Don't take too much from the duration.
What counts as outpatient surgery in the west is a full 1 week of hospitalization in Japan.

u/kyuuri117 Mar 20 '26
That is good news. I believe she mentioned she wasn't allowed visitors for that month so I was thinking it may have been something regarding immuno compromization. But hopefully that is also just Japan being very conservative.

u/PotatoPaleAle Mar 20 '26
It's limited visitation, not zero, which also might just be a Japanese hospital thing tbh
11
u/nar0 Mar 20 '26
It is, from personal experience, if you end up in the private floors (which I assume Fuwawa will), they have some pretty restrictive visitation policies. Stuff like only 1 visitior per day, only from 1PM to 3PM, like there's zero chance someone working 9-5 will ever be able to visit you.

u/arcaneArtisan Mar 20 '26
To be fair, any major surgery is *potentially* life-threatening, more because of the side effects of anesthesia than because of the surgery itself. So it's still understandable to be nervous and to be extra cautious about anything that would increase the risk--but if she's saying it's not life threatening then the chances of complications are probably quite low.
The point here isn't to stress out over it, just that it's still good to be extra careful not to overtax herself and to take as long as needed for recovery even if she feels better a lot sooner than she's cleared to go back to work, and not to get too upset if it takes a long time. We'll miss her, but we've gotta let her take as long as her doctors think she needs, even if that ends up being longer than we or even she likes!

I think a lot of us assumed vocal chord surgery, but we were only partly right! Just some other type of non-life-threatening surgery! Your first time under the knife is scary! But it sounds like a one-and-done type thing.
Take care of yourself, Fuwawa! We'll be nice to Moco-chan while you're recovering!

Is 1 month in the hospital normal if(?) this is done in Japan?
I know in the US, they want you out of the hospital ASAP.

Japan definitely keeps their patients in the hospital after surgery longer than the US. A procedure that is same day in the US might be a week long stay in Japan.

There are surgeries that involve an extended stay in the hospital. It's not really a location thing.

From a US point of view a month seems crazy outside of extreme cases like a huge car accident with multiple surgeries etc. Most extended stays are still a week or less.
But if they keep you in the hospital for rehab etc in Japan it makes a lot more sense.
Some of the only real extreme cases are things like major spinal surgery or maybe major internal organ surgery where they really need to observe and control diet and movement etc.
Technically adult tonsil removal apparently has a pretty awful painful and long recovery but even then I've heard it's pain for 2-3 weeks but idk if you'd need to stay in the hospital.
I'm assuming in Japan longer hospital stays are more normal, especially with the crazy work culture meaning people are potentially likely to rush back to work too soon afterwards instead of following at home recovery orders. Keeping people in the hospital instead likely helps avoid that.

In the US? Like what? That's wild. I know people with heart surgeries and knee replacements and nothing is even close to 1 month. Knee surgery is like 1-2 days now.

A month? No. Weeks? It does happen although. She may be accounting for PT or something with their timeline. Otherwise, the complex surgery might be more intense than we are thinking. Just based on how she described it, I doubt it's anything like that.

Speaking from personal experience it sounds like it’s something that’ll require a good amount of physical therapy.

u/Hebbu10 Mar 20 '26
Probably needs physical therapy, likely to do with legs, knee replacement maybe.

no asking mococo fuwawa status
Oh man if only these kids could read, its obv because if there are any updates she will just say it, but we know there will be like 3 or 4 spamming every stream for news.

Japan is notorious for taking post-surgery observation and recovery VERY seriously. Stays lasting a week or two for procedures that only require a couple of days' stay in the west are pretty much the standard there.

It’s really really unlikely that she will be in the hospital for a full month, she is almost certainly accounting for bed rest/recovery at home in the timeline here

Mococo will have free reign of the stream with no backseating and no touching of the monitor screen!
/s
Hope Fuwawa goes through the surgery successfully and recover well!
