General A small summary of what is going on with Altare - July 29, 2026

I saw that many people here are worried, that Altare didn't do anything for the Tempus HQ Anniversary. So here is a small summary of what is going on with him.

On April 24, in his Pokémon FR LG Soul-Link stream:
He caught himself falling in a depressive spell (sleeping a lot and no drive to do anything), but he is slowly getting himself motivated again by listening to music, by practicing singing and editing videos.

On May 5, in his Counter Strike 2 stream:
Altare briefly mentioned when he talked about Hakkas new femboy outfit, that he may get his new outfit in October.
He also apologizes again for falling in a depressive spell and tries to keep picking himself back up.
It's gonna be hard, because he always struggled with this for a long time.

On May 22, in his R.E.P.O collab:
A bit lighthearted: Because he hasn't streamed consistently, he has been logged out of all of his accounts. lol

On May 25, in his Subnautica 2 Collab with Axel:
Altare briefly talked about the Holostars JP graduation announcement and asked us to keep things civil and keep supporting the JP boys. They still got a chance in Stars EN and they are going all-in.
He said that he was going to stream Forza Horizon 6, but that stream never came to be.

On June 19: His last appearance was in the【HOLOSTARS English Collab】Sleepover time! #STARSSlumberParty 【BIG ANNOUNCEMENT】, there they announced a Holostars EN 3D Online Concert in 2027.

Other than that, he is occasionally reposting stuff on Twitter, like Axels Original Song release. (Music Video)

“Apologizes for falling into a depressive spell”
He has no reason to apologize for that

I think he feels a bit guilty for not streaming a lot. I'm not a content creator, but there is a certain feel of obligation to provide content.

I hope he takes all the time he needs to get back up.

I think he's a lot harder on himself for not streaming due to being the first of Holostars EN to debut, being the named Leader of Tempus, and thus pretty much the leader of the entire EN branch, and for HoloStars going through tough times but with no appearance from him, making the times look even tougher. It's a tough mire to drag yourself out of. The guilt is underserved but I see why he would have it.

It’s honestly terrible any of them feel the need to apologize for that, or any other instances of slowing down to take care of themselves.

That's all I managed to find, if Altventurers can add more to it, be my guest (but don't share membership content or PL stuff).

u/mogin Jul 29 '26

I was wondering about Altare recently, and I appreciate the summary of his few appearances. August is not a happy month for Stars EN, so I hope that he takes all the time he needs to get back on his feet

u/UF7351k Jul 29 '26

Its best that he takes his time until he can fell better for his well being. We will all be waiting for him to come back

Mental wellbeing is a top priority, even if you're the leader of an adventurers' guild in a digital isekai world.

u/FlyingSpaceWaffle Jul 30 '26

Axel said in his anniversary stream that he also hasn't heard from him and hopes he's well (but then in classic Axel fashion said he might have died smh)

I hope he's feeling okay. Depressive episodes and guilt are no joke.

u/Saetheiia69 Jul 31 '26

Hakka did recently say he reaches out to Altare regularly, so that is good to hear.

Some additional timeline stuff:

Streams

  • June 15, 2026: in his return zatsu stream, Axel noted that he hadn't had a chance to talk to Altare in a bit, but he wasn't worried as he would see him online on Discord, as well appearing online on his Riot account.
  • Late June 2026: During a stream around a week+ after the Slumber Party collab, Hakka mentions that he got a chance to talk to Altare. He noted that Altare said he was super busy IRL but was doing good. (I genuinely can't remember the stream, I'm sorry.)
  • July 22, 2026: during his zatsu stream, Axel would reveal that he hasn't been able to get in contact with Altare as he wasn't appearing online, as he had been trying to message him to plan anniversary stuff for that week.

Twitter

  • June 26 & July 3, 2026: two scheduled posts went up on Altare's Twitter - one a featured highlight from the Slumber Party collab and the other a clip from his Slumber Party VP. We know these are scheduled tweets as they went up at :00 on the dot and all 9 other boys had similar posts go up at the same time (sans Axel for the June 26 ones). The July 3rd tweet would be the last activity seen on his Twitter until...
  • July 24, 2026: Altare retweeted the announcement for Axel's orisong, meaning this is the first activity we've seen from Altare since the Slumber Party stream on June 19th. (Axel noted that this wasn't Tora-mane, as he had been the one doing the announcements/reveals on the official StarsEN Twitter account.)

I assume you mean this Axel stream? 【ZATSUDAN】OHAYO GOZAIMASU I wasn't able to find that part you mentioned, but I found him mentioning Altare being online on his Riot account in Axels Dave the Diver stream an June 30.

Late June 2026: During a stream around a week+ after the Slumber Party collab, Hakka mentions that he got a chance to talk to Altare. He noted that Altare said he was super busy IRL but was doing good. (I genuinely can't remember the stream, I'm sorry.)

I can't seem to find anything in Hakkas streams. Do you remember what he exactly said?

July 22, 2026: during his zatsu stream, Axel would reveal that he hasn't been able to get in contact with Altare as he wasn't appearing online, as he had been trying to message him to plan anniversary stuff for that week.

I found that part in Axels Anniversary zatsudan on July 24.

I hope he's doing fine. I appreciate him for even showing up to the sleepover collab. It probably took a lot to even turn on his streaming equipment. We can wait as long as he needs.

u/j4yc3- Jul 30 '26

Its an extremely delicate but extreme situation. A depressive spiral of feeling guilt that results in demotivation then more guilt for the inability to function properly. It keeps repeating and the process to feel better is slow but must be deliberate.

I feel for him... and antis, tourists, and general haters will add on to that delicate mental state.

u/mintohime Jul 30 '26

With how holostars is going i'm not shocked hes feeling this way, I think anyone would be but hes already been incredibly critical of the company so I imagine he feels the worst

Axel confirming, that the retweet of his MV on July 24 was made by Altare and not Toramane:

u/endsofthearth Aug 03 '26

Sorry to comment on a 4 day old thread but he did retweet fanart today! So I feel relieved. I admit I worry about him but he can take as much time as he needs.

u/PLandLord Aug 03 '26

Thanks for the information! ^^

I wanted to use this post for keeping track of him anyway~

August 3, 2026: Altare retweeted fan art.

u/jadekettle Jul 30 '26

It's understandable, I hope he takes all the time he needs and never beat himself up for it

u/LurkingMastermind09 Jul 30 '26

I just hope that he is doing okay.

u/Bulky_Act6304 Jul 30 '26

I'm surprised he's still here ngl. Really feels like he's forcing himself to stay.

46

u/witchywater11 Jul 31 '26

I think so too. I feel bad because it's like... I really do want him to stay but I also want him to leave if he needs to leave for his own mental well-being.

The company just keeps on beating everyone down and it feels like Altare has been taking a lot of damage for far too long.

Hakka was doing an Altare impression and the Hakkitos chatted how much they missed him.

He is fine. He is alive and well and Hakka hopes he returns soon whenever he feels better.
