Background

2020
Mint debuted on Youtube on 24 July with her viewership peaking at around 200 and she quickly gained subscribers. There was a difference in mic quality during the debut, which the fans dubbed it, "Toaster Mic", which was a joke amongst her community. She says that she had no experience of streaming, with little experience of graphic designing.

On 30 July she quickly rose up and hit a milestone of 2,500 subscribers, in which she streamed as a celebration for it.

On 1 October she celebrated her birthday, which to a surprise, a group of her fans made a VN of her, which is based on their interpretation of Mint's past, as she herself cannot remember.

On 14 October she reached 4,444 subscribers, which she considers as a milestone as 4 in Japanese, can mean shi meaning death.

On 31 October she opened up memberships, she stated that the first 44 members would receive a card signed by Mint herself, so the fight for the first 44 was intense. The term for her members are Memboos, which relate to her being a ghost.

On 5 November she had a collaboration with Amano Pikamee, who she is a fan most of, and could roughly be said that this boosted the viewership and subcriber count as she was introduced to many new people.

On 4 December she reached 10,000 subscribers, which occurred during an Among Us collaboration. As a result, she streamed Phasmophobia, playing by herself.

2021
