Sadly it seems he's wiped everything but his Gumroad. His twitter seems to be dead too.
Yaoi art hasn't got a huge market so I'd image it's not really possible to be profitable. Hence why yaoi art has a really high price tag vs normal stuff.

It's a shame, his stuff is frankly unwatched in the current yaoi art sphere.

@Hkaa Roku did around 10k dollars per month with his Patreon and I think there were months where he didn't publish because his art certainly needed the time and effort.

I think his disappearance was caused by more of a psychological issue, the problems he had with Hotcha fucking him and up and accusing him of plagiarizing because Hotcha was incredibly jealous of Roku's success and money. That with Rokudenashi's life issues and the Japanese culture problems with having a life where his money came from porn art.

He also wanted to make an AAA game and it never came to fruition. It seems like another company even stole his art and 3D work.

The man was clearly a Bara God, but his focus was on certain specific kinks that didn't really resonate with all crowds. He tried pleasing so many people it didn't really work out in the end.

I just wish he kept going, even if it was an image pack every two or three months and with content picked by himself instead of the crowd. It could be sort of a hobby to make some extra money.

I also guess he proceeded to do some more non-porn stuff in the art world because he certainly is an incredible artist which works will remain unapparelled in the Bara/Yaoi world. His works out of it were even more incredible from what I remember. He posted some non-erotic stuff sporadically an the technical aspects were just out of this planet!

Hope he's alive and experiencing as much success as he can in any endeavors he chose.
