Anecdotes
- In the early days, MZM was often misunderstood as a male duo VTuber project that was "female-oriented at first sight". However, the content is actually very diverse and interesting project content with no particular preference, such as popular games, chatting about manga and anime, and quiz videos which guest star other VTubers. Because they was often misunderstood, they were not well-known at first, until they were invited by Utai Meika and Tenkai Tsukasa to the "VTuber Kohaku Uta Gassen" to show the public their musical skills and their interesting side, thus changing the public's impression. They are now loved by audiences regardless of gender. Therefore, they also maintain a friendly relationship with Tsukasa, and Tsukasa is also jokingly called the third member of MZM.[5]
- Anjo once tried to carry out the quiz plan revenge challenge as always when his partner Kosaka was drunk, and verified the competition of "even an idiot can win while returning from drinking", and the result was of course...
- Kosaka once talked about his experience starting out as a VTuber at a VTuber cocktail party, see below for details.[6]
