[@FizzyBanger]

Let me know what you thought about this video! It's interesting to see how channels are using Maizen to make millions of views with fake content.

[@FourTran]

I agree

[@H0t3lYT]

Thank you for listening to me and covering this situation. It's really really getting out of hand.

[@H0t3lYT]

I would also like it if you had credited me in the description since I informed you about those fake copycat Maizen channels in the first place with my video.

[@FizzyBanger]

@@H0t3lYT I was aware of them beforehand, and only I said that I might use your video in the commentary. Never ended up including it though, but I still appreciate your comment on the topic.

[@H0t3lYT]

I thank you for this response. I never had a person as big as you respond to my comments as nobody does that to me.

[@Atius]

Fake maizen is the type of stuff you'd never expect, Like imagine something like idk "Fake Steveee" and what not

[@FizzyBanger]

There were definitely lots of Steveee copycats when he broke the algorithm, so in a weird way this is an expected outcome on KZbin.

[@joel9104]

Incredibly well documented and amazingly presented. Dude your hard work and love for making videos is really showing and it will pay off some day, I can guarantee it

[@otu.]

Oh god, I wasn't aware that it has become this convoluted. But this is such a nice video, Fizz! Your editing is always on par too. It would be pretty cool if you'll make a video about how complex the algorithm is, since I actually like how you talk about it. So captivating.

[@Knightros]

5:11 This reminds me of the DarkViperAU react content “drama”. He says reaction content creators are trying to maximise people’s time on their videos and no-one else’s, and that kind of applies here, as the smaller, copy channels are taking away revenue from the main channel. If you’re interested, it’s called “Reactors: The Professional Parasites”. I’m not going to link it, I don’t want to look like a bot, but it’s a similar concept to this.

[@FizzyBanger]

I'm a big fan of DarkViper, and well aware of the react drama. There are some parallels between copycats and reactors, as you mentioned. Although I'd argue that fake Maizen channels are actually responding to a content gap (kids want more Maizen content than what is provided by Maizen), and I don't think it has a big impact on the official videos.

[@TheOneWithGoats]

Back in my day we used to watch popularmmos and stampycat. It's sad kids now need to watch these types of videos.

[@Daralexen]

Blame it on Elsagate and the rise of IPad parenting.

[@auzarchives]

Minecraft kids content is becoming a trend rn. Im in a minecraft kids content server and man alot of big youtubers are in it. Sipover, minecraft curios and more (idk if they are all gonna do kids content or if their just there)

[@FizzyBanger]

it's definitely clear that Minecraft Kids content, despite seeming oversaturated, is in extremely high demand. I wouldn't blame established creators wanting part in the revenue. if they make the content with utmost respect for the audience they want to appeal to, I don't see any problems with it.

[@allblacknow]

The presentation, editing, everything is on point. Amazing channel

[@obseletechannel]

It's too sad that kids are getting tricked into watching this stuff. I hope the people running the official Maizen channel are aware, because this is nuts.

[@FizzyBanger]

Yeah, I believe they are aware of it. The English channel recently changed their handle to @ maizenofficial, possibly to ensure that their channel is more easily recognized vs the fakes.

[@obseletechannel]

@@FizzyBanger Okay, now my brother won't watch fake Maizen videos :)

[@obseletechannel]

@@EpicGamerwut Yep!

[@obseletechannel]

@@FizzyBanger Oh and also you should make a video explaining how @cashminecraft was successful. He got to 1 million in 4 months-Crazy.

[@TheJurassicTalk]

@XDcole_ The Guys who are doing the official channel are fine. It’s Just the fake channels. It’s pretty kid-appropriate, but the sounds are a bit annoying and it’s not always vanilla minecraft.

[@RedstoneItems64]

This is quite depressing. I’d imagine they’d put that disclaimer in the description as a safeguard from any copyright claims/lawsuits. If the fakers start using ads though…

[@Pazjor]

Another great video, super well done!

[@yesl0ly1]

Omg bro hi I didn't think I would see you here! I love your vids bro

[@Pazjor]

@@yesl0ly1 thank you!!

[@Imthecanadian]

I wonder if the "unofficial" channels are actually owned by maizen and the views on those channels somehow go to the real channel

[@emilyisoffline]

Great video once again Fizzy! :D

[@FizzyBanger]

Glad you enjoyed it! It took me quite a while to edit this one together :)

[@Crescent_Frazier]

The fact that mazien got that many subs in 4 years

[@dashing690]

Nice vid, very interesting what they did with ads

[@auzarchives]

I have succeeded. I am now in a fizzy video lol. Im glad I could contribute to this video in some way

[@FizzyBanger]

ahahahaha, thanks for your help!

[@Madison_Kitty]

There’s a word “God” like “Oh my God” was never being used from kids show. But it was used by some Minecraft KZbinrs, Like doing hardcore.

[@Daralexen]

I also believe that their content in the English channel being very ESL friendly could be a factor.

[@H0t3lYT]

Thank you for listening to me and covering this situation. It's really really getting out of hand.

[@pg3dgaming96]

when maizen started uploading the subs went up from 200k to 600k in 2 day

[@MonocleMC]

My fiancées little sister was watching Aphmau one time, I left the room and came back, and somehow she was on a video of animals being dissected, but the thumbnail was a Minecraft thumbnail. Even KZbin kids aren't safe.

[@metehandenizozkan3280]

I was also able to see a Maizen ad by opening an incognito tab.

[@CarnivoreDaddy68]

Man my childhood got destroyed

[@Kezia.cat-ssidy.offical]

As one of Maizen fan I hate to see how people trying to be them I mean I watch them a lot when I was younger edit:I glad that I was sub to og maizen

[@edgirlgaming]

you're 6

[@Kezia.cat-ssidy.offical]

@@edgirlgaming no I am not I might be young but not that young I was 8-9

[@finalkill]

Today we have the green screen kids

[@Shifat_theminecarftgamer]

Yes

[@vu-trathechildofhorrors5859]

Maizen’s original channel name was MikeyTurtle I saw an ad for their first video and I clicked on it a year ago

[@MusicalNotes71Official]

I was playing a game and then their ad Appeared in a Minecraft server

[@ememtalinio913]

When I checked the Maizen Japanese Channel It Was Made in Japan, While I Checked on The Official Maizen Channel It Was Made In The United States, It's The Same For MrBeast And Others... I Even Went Viral When I Moved From Different Countries, But My Channel Was Deleted

[@stellberry16]

im a fan of maizen i now how they grow they grow they got lot of subs and they popular

[@K1tt3nArtz]

Maizen unofficial channels had one job😭

[@kavikals]

I also saw a ad but it was representing a mod

[@jaylegoninjago5615]

Damn, Maizen rizzes all other channels up

[@0n1c420]

what???

[@HamsterGuy]

I GOT FEATURED IN MY FAVORITE KZbinRS VIDEO!!!!!!!!!!! LETZ GO, oh wait, i forgot, it was a split second only *sobs*

[@FizzyBanger]

play it back on 0.25x speed, suddenly you have an even longer feature in the video lmaooo

[@HamsterGuy]

@@FizzyBanger lol

[@notpra6568]

Japanese maizen channel got acquired by a company called laser fzco and the the Japanese jj voice changed

[@GAMER32231]

6:59 why would these maizen-imposters intentionally try to show inappropriate content to the masses of 5 year olds? I can’t think of any reason for them to do that.

[@Chad_NotHating]

Some of them do that because they want views or subscribers As all I watch Mazien a lot and overtime I see cringe fake name Of mazien it ruined my braincells

[@BluishMink]

Some of the fake channels just copy the audio from a maizen video and match their scenes with the audio since they couldn’t find the voice changer that maizen used

[@aynurm5510]

I subbed to this channel before they hit 1 million

[@I_am_a_russian_spy]

I watch their videos and they are quite good! They have a really good storyline in every video. And they play different kinds of mods every video! So the audience have something different every time they upload! By the I love your content ❤

[@J25131]

I really never understood how they blew up

[@YoBaconKid]

Nice I’m subbing!

[@FizzyBanger]

thanks :)

[@endless3805]

[@kamyarkeikha1690]

[@HamsterGuy]

Great Video

[@mik11112]

Kids channel: *Makes content so bad that the thumbnail can't even be shown in a video* KZbin: Other youtuber: *Says a swear word* KZbin: DEMONETIZED

[@Murilothebander]

Well, Today they are turning into a +13 channel maybe because they recently posted BREAK IN STORY.

[@Tsukas4_star]

Maizen was the only channel that reached 1 Trillion views on Japan making it more popular than Hikakin Games. Most people in Japan use it as a joke and content, but other english people use it as an impersonation because Mikey was more popular than Zenichi, Mikey is more unique than Zenichi. Most people loved Mikey over Zenichi that they used him for views, imagine Maizen's employee sees this they would be mad since their hard work from 2018 to 2023 lot's of things has changed throughout the years They are suffering from Physical Condition (both Mikey and Zenichi) And Zenichi got covid making his voice worser so they hired a voice actor replacing Zenichi while he was away. Maizen's big secret is in Instagram One of the post revealed someone's face but it's in blur another one is in Tiktok however i lost the video but during the tour the person showed a photo of Zenichi and Mikey being interviewed.

[@josephwarrick1089]

Thank you man

[@pauljayallenmaquiarn2304]

Maizen has now 4m subs

[@FizzyBanger]

I'm calling it, they'll have 10 million. If not this year, then maybe the next.

[@pauljayallenmaquiarn2304]

They will have 10 million? Maybe next next year, how did you know? Maybe your smart?

[@FaithEditz1899]

Maizen wow not much effort in that

[@wendyvillanueva6600]

and also it has a cafe

[@zothisneedsmorethan3characters]

bang

[@GabeNotNewell]

I mean its 100% legal They just put their money (or reinvested already earned cash) to promote it. And it payed off

[@wolfboy6967]

I Always watch maizen English channel and I rarely watch the Japanese version I only know a couple of Japanese I only know irakmas=bonappetit and arigato=thank you and yamete kudasai=please stop su shi=sushi and mizu=water and I know 2 hawaii words really easy to say ae=yes a'ole=no

I said this in part one that I know maizen

[@maximilianmulder5773]

When I was 7 I could tell which is fake so.. I was safe

[@Gutty00]

Thanks for this video. As a parent of an avid maizen addict, it is concerning that we must monitor what said addict is watching. I can tell if it's real or not by the voices used, the language used and the way they act. I have reported some videos because of its content is not suitable. If only KZbin could do something about it aye

[@videogamearcadeplayer]

[@monnyred]

we love maizen 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

[@nicolasbarroso5797]

Hey btw the other characters seen beside the fake mikey and jj thumbnails they were stolen. The original people of those red and blue guys are nico and cash, nico was a character stolen from a minecraft pvper even the voice is the same but cash i think he is original...

[@Macneto1234]

I might be just 8 but I hate jj and mikey because they never say rude words.

[@asismok1725]

How can I contact you?

[@RyeX-Savage]

Your 10 times better then mizen you should be at 100000000000 subs

[@FizzyBanger]

that means a lot, thanks! I'd be happy with just 100000 subs lol

[@ReyReyGv]

My little brother loves maizen content so much, however 80% of the time he watches fake vids.one of these fake channels are stealing the voicelines of original videos and adding them into game play to make videos. ONE GOT 1 MILLION VEIWS LIKE WHATTTTTTTTTT
