Though what her exact illness is has not been revealed, the agency did note that she really was getting treated. However, she has remained sick, and she opted to go on hiatus to focus on the treatment.

This has prompted one of the anime she is appearing in next season to do a recast for one of her roles. That anime is the upcoming WWW.WORKING!! TV anime, which is a spin-off of the original Working!! TV anime. Taneda was supposed to be a part of the cast, voicing Kisaki Kondou, but due to the hiatus, the character will now be voiced by Nana Mizuki, as announced by the anime’s official website.
