Spoiler for Take it with grain of salt as I heard it from a rumors board:

That one is unique as Taneda Risa case behind the screen somewhat related to her mental health.

It kinda bad (further speculated to be caused by thought of "deteriorating health = no good seiyuu") to the point Strike the Blood staffs encouraged her to rest.
Akatsuki Kojou's (the MC) VA himself, Yoshimasa Hosoya, dislike idea of continuing the series without her he reduced his workload to help her take it easy; this is why if you look back to announcement around medias, OVA is originally intended as S3 but they changed it into OVA in respect to Taneda Risa well-being.

She's also on Zombieland Saga taking role as Mizuno Ai.
Some VA enthusiasts theorized Mizuno Ai background (idol with tragic death who now doing her best to return) is a callback to Taneda Risa history.

You know, I saw some people on ANN complain that she barely manages her roles nowerdays, but I don't see her being any worse than she were before the hiatus.


As for Yuuichirou Umehara being recast as Anos, a lot of people actually though he will be a replacement here.
