Joseph Bizinger

Bizinger began his YouTube career after posting his first video, "Dubbed Anime Sucks!," on 27 May 2013. With a mixture of vlogs and discussions about various anime and manga, Bizinger would hit his first big milestone, 100,000 subscribers, in 2015. This was soon followed on what is considered his break-out video, "7 Types of Anime Fans," on 17 June 2015, which ran through the various archetypes that comprise the anime community; a week after its release, Bizinger had doubled his subscriber count. In February 2016, Bizinger created his second channel, Joey, which was initially created as a 'me' channel, but has since evolved into a channel where less polished or various content that does not fit in the main channel are placed.

After graduating from university, in May 2016 Bizinger moved to Japan, where he had originally planned to work in information technology, but by then his YouTube channel had grown so successful that he could work on it full time. In January 2017, The Anime Man hit one million subscribers. From 2017 to 2018, Bizinger co-hosted a weekly SBS podcast titled, The Anime Show, with Agnes Diego (Akidearest), which ran for 68 episodes that discussed about anime, manga, and otaku culture.

In 2018, Bizinger was a guest for four episodes in Abroad in Japan's Journey Across Japan series; in which he traveled on bike with British YouTuber Chris Broad, from Niigata to Itoigawa, Japan. The series documented local customs and daily life along the way, while also doing challenges to make it more interesting. In one of the challenges, Broad and Bizinger was to make a television commercial using Morinaga in Jelly, to which Bizinger created the fictional character "Dr. Jelly." Bizinger, along with Natsuki Aso, would continue to appear in the follow-up sequels to the series: Escape to Fuji (2020) and The Lost Islands (2021). In June 2021, the single Too Much Volcano! by Abroad in Japan, featuring Bizinger and Aso, was released on the iTunes Store and Spotify; the song and accompanying music video was recorded during the production of The Lost Islands. The song peaked at 65 on the UK downloads charts on 25 June 2021.

Bizinger also began his voice acting career in 2018, with a cameo role in the video game Grisaia Phantom Trigger Vol. 4 and a narration role in an episode of Pop Team Epic. In 2020, he also got the role as Music Elitist in the video game No Straight Roads.

In February 2020, Bizinger joined alongside Thai-British YouTuber Garnt Maneetapho (Gigguk) and Welsh YouTuber Connor Colquhoun (CDawgVA) in creating and hosting a weekly audio and video podcast called Trash Taste, where they discuss anime, manga, otaku culture, and their experiences while living in Japan. The first episode was released on 5 June 2020 and all episodes are available on YouTube and major podcast platforms. In February 2022, Bizinger created a third channel, The Anime Man VODs, which feature recordings of his Twitch livestreams.
