Mano Aloe debuted on August 15, 2020, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7AfN-lr1T-M&ab_channel=AloeCh.Archive, on a stream that garnered her 100,000 subscribers. She described herself as a demon succubus "who could dish it out but cannot take it" and loved singing and wanted to make her songs. She wanted to join hololive after watching them perform at Hololive's 1st fes. Nonstop Story. 
Since her debut, she had already found herself in hot water - on August 17, she posted a video apologizing for the unintentional leak of her Live2D model months before the official debut. At the time, Aloe had requested permission from her manager to try out her model on a previously owned account. The leak was in the form of a test stream on Twitcasting, with permission from her manager. 
However, after debuting on YouTube, she forgot to delete the test stream and left it up for potentially hundreds to see. This was considered a breach of her contract with Hololive, and she was given a 2-week suspension merely two days after her official debut. She apologized to her fellow 5th Gen members and management team for her lack of foresight and said she would use her time off to reflect on her wrongdoings.
According to her, the Live 2D (L2D) broadcast of her testing her model out was dug up and found by the public that happened during May of 2020, one that would later expose her private life to a startling degree. The manager complied with her request, and she most likely spent a while trying out the rigging of her model before finishing up. However, she and her manager had yet to end that test, leaving a backdoor for people to find. 
It was password-protected, but someone could break in and find it. This would lead to a multitude of doxxing attempts on the talent. She would further go on to address rumors and the concerning amount of harassment around her, which went as far as calling her home phone number and exposing her address. 
According to her, many people had used the private information dug up to start harassing a male acquainted with her; it was speculated that the man was her boyfriend or something of that status, but she addressed that she and he had no current relationship at the time the video was made and had gone their separate ways before her debut.
On August 30, she announced that she couldn't handle it anymore and that being a VTuber was severely affecting her mental health; and left the company a day after, scrubbing her channel and Twitter clean of all content as well. This news shocked many fans, as they considered her one of the best VTubers, and many fans did their best to show her their support. 
A websitehttps://manotomo.tk/home that was created to cheer up Aloe during the suspension changed its format to recording her memory, with its homepage message being 親愛なるアロエ様。短い間ではありましたが、一緒に過ごした時間に心より感謝しております。本当にありがとうございました。アロエ様のご健勝とご多幸をお祈り申し上げます。(Dear Aloe, thank you for everything. While it may have been but for a short while, we appreciate every little thing you've given us. We wish you the best of luck going forward). It also had fan messages from viewers all around the world. There is currently a channel dedicated to salvaging her uploadshttps://www.youtube.com/channel/UCYq8Zfxf9iYTci5EGEGnkLw/videos.
