Early life

The original idea came from two childhood friends from Japan who started uploading gameplay videos in 2015. It was simple: share their Minecraft and Roblox adventures, add a dash of story, and see what sticks

Career

  • 2015: Japanese channel begins, grows fast.

  • 2020: December 27 marks the launch of the English channel—same gameplay, now dubbed for overseas fans Fanmaizen.

  • 2020s: They rack up astronomical view counts and become iconic in the Minecraft YouTube scene.

A big milestone: on December 15 (year unspecified), Maizen was one of only two Japanese channels featured in a YouTube Japan video celebrating creators who’ve hit 1 trillion Minecraft views Fanmaizen.

They’ve also stepped into the world of merch and crossovers: collabs with Tokyo Tower (May 15, 2022 and April 28, 2023), Shimamura Group (August 2022)—plus an official manga titled Adventures of the Maizen Sisters

Notable achievements

  • Massive reach: English-language sources list around 8.33 million YouTube subscribers, almost 6 billion views total, and estimated net worth hovering near $25 million .

  • They’ve solidified a reputation—especially in Japan—in storytelling-based gaming content, making them one of the top gaming channels there .

  • Merchandise, cross-media ventures, and that long-lasting brand feel just underscore how they’ve turned YouTube stardom into something multi-layered

Rankings

  • Top-tier within Japanese gaming—particularly Minecraft.

  • Millions of subscribers globally; billion+ views.

  • Recognized by YouTube Japan for massive influence in Minecraft content.

Others
  • Name origin: Maizen comes from combining Maikkii (Mikey) and Zenichi (JJ) .

  • The “Sisters” part? Odd since both characters are male and unrelated—but that’s just part of the quirky charm .

  • Telop captions (on-screen subtitles) are a cultural staple in Japan—I love that they kept them in the dubs.

  • Mikey is a turtle: optimistic, sometimes gullible, loyal—even reckless at times. JJ’s more grounded—often the strategic one.

  • English dubs are performed by voice actors—Mikey often sounds like a girl, but is male; JJ gets a range of interpretations depending on the language
