His mother made sure he would retain his Japanese heritage by speaking the language to him and showing him Japanese media, with the manga series _Doraemon_ being especially prevalent in his early childhood. He went to an international school in Sydney for some time during elementary school, but his parents moved him to the public school system after being dissatisfied with the quality of education it was providing, but he still attended a Japanese school on Saturdays to keep learning the language. In high school, Bizinger was the only student of Japanese descent in his class, so he was asked by his peers if he knew about anime as the genre began to grow in popularity. This, alongside a school project to create a website, spurred him to make a website where he reviewed anime. He kept making the reviews even after the project ended, and he continued to post the reviews up until he went to Sydney University. While studying there, he started to make some YouTube videos to be posted on his website, but eventually decided to switch to the platform entirely. After graduating from Sydney University in 2016, Bizinger moved to Japan where he had originally planned to work in information technology, but by then his YouTube channel had grown successful enough that he could work on it full time. He has done voice acting in the video game _Grisaia Phantom Trigger_ as well as a role in the _Pop Team Epic_ anime series. In February 2020, he joined [Connor Marc Colquhoun](https://anilist.co/staff/260141) (CDawgVA) and [Garnt Maneetapho](https://anilist.co/staff/313847) (Gigguk) in creating and hosting a weekly podcast called [Trash Taste](https://www.youtube.com/c/TrashTaste), where they discuss anime, manga, otaku culture, and their experiences while living in Japan. He is currently affiliated with Kadokawa-backed talent management company, [GeeXPlus](https://www.geexplus.co.jp/en/creators/theanimeman/)
