DID YOU ENJOY LEARNING ABOUT MINT TODAY?
BIG AGREE? SMALL AGREE? NEUTRAL? BIG DISAGREE?
Must protect the ghost maid!
OMNI AGREE 💚🤍
BIG AGREE WE LOVE BUSTIN AND BIG MINT❤❤
I love learning about Mint!
BIG AGREE
"Live, Laugh, Lactate" absolutely should be on a t-shirt... In more ways than one.
bro i thought she said "lactaid" and i was like "the milk? is she lactose intolerant???"
1:10:55 "When someone thinks highly of you, you wonder how long it will take for them to feel disappointed in you." hits like a truck!
Aw. Mint, it's okay that you feel overwhelmed sometimes. Or often. What's important is to savor those moments where you're whelmed.
I actually love the tangents. I'm all here for it. This episode was a BIG AGREE.
BIG AGREE that tangents are awesome. Scripts or preestablished topics for podcasts are great, but genuine discussions that pop up for whatever reason are even better.
The part about valuing a small number of standout friendships because they are not superficial was so wholesome.
I love HAGS

I learned so much about Japan today! Thanks Mint and Matara!!
😆
Shh... spoilers!
If matara made a reddit video channel in its peak I woulda watched every single one of her vids
Agreed!
Matara could read the dictionary and I'd listen
Damn I remember enjoying the content of those videos but hating the fake voice soo much, with Matara's voice? Peak content!
Honestly, hearing Mint's answers to personality questions just further cements her as my kamioshi. 👺
Very fun episode! Today I learned I share a personality with a lot of anime villains I absolutely despise! This is clearly healthy and unproblematic! Looking forward to the Henya collab!
One thing people get wrong about shy or introverted behavior is that they see it as a lack of desire or ability. The best way to look at it is like procrastination because it uses the same overall system. When someone chooses to do something there are 2 things at play. The desire to do it and anxiety over the choice. For those that are seen as shy, introverted, lazy or procrastinators they have more anxiety than desire. They are often fairly anxious or scared people. However, once you remove that barrier they are just as energetic, if not more so, than any other person.
And so its not that they lack desire but rather extroverts, in many ways, lack barriers.
In the classical definition of introversion it just means that talking to people tires you out and has no connection to shyness. You can go out and be the life of the party with 0 shyness and still be an introvert that needs a day off afterwards. It exists on a spectrum and isn’t static. Shyness has more to do with anxiety and barriers but is a separate issue.
@@badart3204 The two are linked transitively, as having more shyness leads to being more drained by social interaction. But its not a bi-directional link (you can be drained from social interaction with no shyness in play)
Psychologist here, 59:55 some tests use repeated questions to measure honesty.
Oh, that's reassuring to know, because I'm always full of self doubt and constantly second-guess myself when answering these tests.
I think it's also about the phrasing, a person might not for example directly define themselves as shy but might admit to having difficult initiating conversations
The tangents are fantastic. I think just letting conversations flow naturally makes for more interesting discussions, rather than sticking to a strict topic.
1:36:20
"M" is for the Momos, deep within my thrall♪
"A" denotes my subjects, in but a word: All♪
"T" is for the Time you'll spend with your eyes on me♪
"A" is for your final fate, which is how Ate you'll beeeeee♪
"R" is for Roach Mama - this nickname feels so great♪
"A" is for the Assets 'neath which Zen will suffocate♪
"K" is my Kill count, which is for only me to know♪
My name's Matara Kan, and I'd like to say, "Hello."
Nice reference
The conversation that you two had over the personality test was great, the interactions between you two are wholesome. BIG AGREE.
how much do you want to bet that Mint looked up what Metal Gear characters she shared a personality type with after this and let out a scream of anguish to see Naomi there.
this podcast makes me so happy. I love that Mint and Matara can hang out and do this
I feel like streaming as an industry tends towards novelty over deep meaning. That can be great for some things, but I do appreciate moments where vtubers dig down into their own psychology or a particular subject matter very deeply, so the personality test stuff was extremely engaging to do my dishes to.
Love the personality quiz, I crave more... 10/10
Loving this long-form content. I feel that since vtubing is a visual medium it tends to revolve around either high-intensity content or shorter clips and segments so it's honestly refreshing to get to hear the two of you delve into longer discussions without simultaneously focusing on gameplay or having a live chat to interact with.
As an INFJ-T, the more Mint spoke the more I knew exactly what she was going to be.
Absolutely loved this podcast!!!
"The Picasso of Oral Sex" had me dying.
The disconnect was hilarious! Thank you for giving us something on Monday to look forward to 😊
Edit: Going throughout the quiz was super fun, I love a good personality quiz and tangent

"Just because Picasso painted, doesn't mean you shouldn't ever paint." Pretty god damn deep. 😎👍
this was a really fun episode, guessed mint would be INFP, but i guess she's way more organized than she let on,
also congrats on channel monetization!
Gargantuan agree that the quiz was a blast!
honestly i'm not one to laugh much while watching even entertaining videos, but this podcast never fails to give me at least a wide grin every minute
Loved the quiz. Thanks for putting all this content out here! Really enjoy the way you two vibe together!
CommunityChannel SHOUTOUT!!!! Yes I loved Nat's channel. But also Matara you're totally right, you used to know everyone who was big. Obviously hitting a million is still huge, but now you can hit it and the majority of people on UA-cam will still have no idea who you are.
As someone who got INFJ the last time I took the test, Mint felt like the most obvious INFJ after the first few questions lol
Okay obligatory buzzkill that personality types are pseudoscience i.e. not real. Made for a fun episode though! I related to Mint a lot.
The tangents yall go on are so fun! I dont mind them at all, I could listen to you two talk about paint drying for two hours! Can't wait for the next episode!
Matara: 10 minute personality test adventure, in and out!
2 hours later: We have made a mistake.
This kind of back and forth between the hosts about life and their experiences and perspectives and the different ways you can be a person is what I like most about podcasts. Digging in deep into Mint’s personality test was awesome, and I think that Matara did a great job being a sounding board and encouraging Mint to explain why she feels a particular way about a question. Thank y’all for running with this idea, I love this episode! When I took a similar test years ago, I learned I’m an INFP, which some lists say is like Madoka!
What's funny is that I'm working at a data entry job, sitting alone in my cubicle, listening to this podcast, and I'm perfectly content 😂
1:39:57 you know, in terms of human pokemon reproduction, vaporeon is the most compatible...
Sorry, Amanai. I'm not even angry over you right now. I bear no grudge against anyone. It's just that the world feels so, so wonderful right now. Throughout Heaven and Earth, I alone am the honored one. The merit of having a technique that's passed down for generations is having a user's manual. The demerit is that information about the technique is easily leaked. You were a member of the Zen'in clan, weren't you? That's why you know so much about the Limitless technique. However, even in the Gojo clan, only a scant few know about this. Take the amplified and the reversal, then smash together those two different expressions of infinity to create and push out imaginary mass. Imaginary Technique: Purple.

did you know that in terms of male human and female Vtuber breeding, Mint is the most compatible Vtuber for humans?

Getting to Mint more and Matara as well through the discussion was totally worth listening to. Looking forward to more of w/e y'all are passionate discussing.
This is the third time I'm watching this~ I love any episode where Mint and Matara talk!!!
Mint describing David Harbour as 'the guy from the evil santa movie' is sending me.
I think getting to learn about the people behind the voices is neat and totally cool.
Strong agree, I liked learning about Mints personality!
I big agree enjoyed this episode learning about Mint
Big agree, I just love listening to Mint and Mata just chat especially learning a bit more about the two of you. Your personalities are what keep me listening (also it's more bit sized than the average Matara stream vod and meatier than a short or clip). I did the test a while back and got INFP, the Mediator on mine :D
Big, Big Agree. I REALLY enjoy getting to know the person behind the avatar. Not in a parasocial way, just them being themselves,
"That's not parasocial, that's just friendship" made me laugh harder than I thought it would
The Matara is Mint's therapist episode was great!
BIG AGREE~
Another banger for the books
Otsu from VOD Gang!
Big agree - I love listening to you both yapping
"She's just like me" Best Japan episode ever. Can't wait to listen to Matara take her quiz next week. 🤣
#HAGS
Iv never looked forward to a podcast so much in my life keep it up you 2 these are great
BIG AGREE that i love learning more about the lovely Maid Mint
Okay, I am falling more in love with mint. 😍
Woot advocate too awesome!
I'm gonna enjoy this a lot! Though I can't listen to the podcasts live, saving them for later makes my commutes way more enjoyable! Tyvm Mint and Mata! 💚🤍
I big agree. I love the long tangent,
I would honestly totally watch an entire episode of y’all just taking personality quizzes, like the ones that tell you what kind of bread you are! 🥸
Even though I was SUPER EXCITED for the Japan episode, this was SO GOOD and now I'm even MORE EXCITED for the Japan episode. Thank you both so much as always!!
Sorry, Mint. We see you in the stream chats, we are just being respectful so you can chat too while we giggle and kick our feet because of course you are there lol.
Another banger episode of Mint and Mata's, Thank you both!
This was a very fun and interesting podcast episode, and it was nice to follow along with Mint's thought process as she answered the questions on the personality quiz. I think Mint, on the surface, can come across as just a silly and energetic person who's into otaku culture, when in reality she is a very hard worker and has the drive and discipline to lay out a plan and pursue her dreams despite her struggles (which reminds us that VTubers are human too, just like the rest of us). Despite that drive for success, she doesn't forget to be an understanding and compassionate individual, and is making her own effort to overcome her limitations in order to spread positivity in a world that can use so much more of it.
"Quiet visionary, inspiring and tireless idealist." I am indeed inspired, as many others are, with this ghost maid's drive and passion for doing what she loves, and that is why she is my kamioshi 👻✨
INTP here. I got Conan Edogawa, L(DeathNote), Frieren and Nico Robin. This pleases me. Also loved learning more about my kamioshi today! Good episode
This was a great episode, really loved the full tangent of the personality test and knowing more of both of you.
See you next week for the Japan episode!
Really enjoyed the tangents. My new favourite podcast!
This was a fantastic episode!! BIG AGREE on tangents!
As per Matara's request, I'm an ISTJ (results from a test I took years ago). According to the same site Mint used to take the test, my personality type is shared by Neddard Stark from Game of Thrones and Founding Father George Washington.
Anime-wise, the ISTJ characters are Mikasa Ackerman from Attack on Titan, Rei Ayanami from Evangelion and Neji Hyuuga from Naruto. Pretty much every other character either wears glasses, or has a stick up their backside and is a stoic stickler for the details.
Accurate all in all.
this episode was so much, thank you matara for forcing mint to do the quiz onstream!
Woo! might actually make the premiere this week!
edit: I for sure didn't, it's the 18th Q¬Q
I got ENTP - A, I'd say my top 3 anime matches would be; Ed Elric, Satoru Gojo and Karma Akabane xD
Also Yes I loved this episode! Not just learning more about the intricate minds I watch, in this case Mint and a little bit of Matara, but also just hearing you two interact and chat in a thought provoking way about something is always a good time!
omg lol, it devolved in the first 8 min. Love it
Rapping the end credit names was part of the show Who's Line It Anyway and was one of the best parts
Another great episode, that was so fun!! Thank you girlies ❤
I don't even want to say what anime characters came up when I looked up my personality 🫡 They ranged from Cinnamon Roll to Koyomi Araragi so that's a wild and uncomfortable range...
Calling it now, before she finishes, mint will be an INFJ or INTJ
Edit: You two could just talk about anything, and I would listen to it. Go on as many tangents as you want.
Edit 2: SWEET!!! INFJ!!
ENFP here, apologies to you both for being late all the time. Like with cleaning/paying bills/literally anything with some sort of structure, it’s hard for us to grasp…that and we get so distracted with everything that when we are supposed to be getting ready, we will be too busy learning to play the guitar on a whim/having a conversation with some random person that goes from Beethoven to wondering how many ghost VTubers there are, because of this pathway:
Beethoven->9th->9 lives->Cats->Cat yawn meme->Cthulhu->H P Lovecraft->Short story writers->Stephen King->Ghosts->Mint->Other Ghost VTubers.
Edit 3: ENFP anime characters Chika Fujiwara, Haruhi Suzumiya, Kaori Miyazono
Was fun learning about Mint today! I'm an INFP-T, so watching Evangelion was a bit of a trip. I hated how relatable Shinji felt, knowing how much other people seem to HATE him. Thanks for the fun podcast you two!
the personality test and discussions were a lot of fun, LARGE AGREE
Mint is so much like me fr fr
Great to have finally learn the personality type of Japan! a very educational episode!
1:07:01 DID I JUST HEAR MATARA SINGING A MOTION CITY SOUNDTRACK SONG?? HOLY-
Mints eyes when Matara said master debater 😂😂😂😂
Thanks for the podcast Mint and Matara :D :D
Mintara giggles on Monday’s give me life fr
Big agree, has been really fun to listen to!
Glad you Guys Collab 💚💜
Last time I took the personality test, I came up INTJ. I'm amused to find that I'm Matara if she were a social recluse.
IMO going thru the queez has been a lot of fun, overal this kind of podcasts are super chill and relaxing to listen to
The absolute last thing I expected was the Jon Sandman name drop, but hell yeah
The more tangents there are, the longer the podcast, the more we can hear you two talk, so it's winwinwinwinwinwinwin
I liked when mint did the personality test
6 somewhat big agree
Cognitive function meta-analysis of Mint’s 16 Personalities test results:
**This is in no way meant to invalidate any results, but to proved a different approach to the podcasts episode; “Get to know Mint**
For those who don’t know, the 16 personalities test doesn’t actually test your MBTI, but it tests your personality in a test called “the big 5” and applies it to MBTI. While there is small correlation between a big 5 result and an MBTI type, we all know the classic saying of correlation and causation. What MBTI actually uses to classify people are systems called cognitive functions. These functions appear in people in different orders of use preference. There are 8 functions total, and each person uses 4 as a basis of their personality.
According to Mints results, and I’ll leave it to her to decide if this is accurate to herself or not, her main functions in order (with shorthand) are Introverted intuition (Ni), extroverted feeling (Fe), introverted thinking (Ti) and extroverted sensing (Se). These are defined as follows
Ni: a way of perceiving the world in which many different things seem to converge into the future into a synthesized point. People with this function first thrive in these futures and it is hard to pull them into the present. They are wont to prepare, at least mentally, for what’s next and are often correct in predictions.
Fe: a way of decision making that values the emotional landscape of a “tribe.” This tribe can vary as people belong to multiple groups and communities like coworkers, friends, family, etc. types that favor this function make decisions with the goal of bringing harmony to these communities.
Ti: a way of making decisions that values internal sense and logic to guide an individual. As the 3rd function in Mint’s stack, this function would be something to practice and grow typically in teens and early twenties. It would mean that logical thinking may take some conscious effort, but feel rewarding and important to her. Third-tier functions are often a place of fun or comfort for types when they’re older, so puzzle games or tech may be a hobby.
Se: this is the last of the 4 main functions for mint, so it should be the area that causes the most anxiety. Se anxiety in particular shows as a lack of confidence of the present moment and fear of the unpredictable nature of the world. Just like Ni, this function is also a way of perceiving the world, and so being at the bottom of the stack, it’s very hard for INFJs to see the world without any sort of “future” filter so to speak.
Just from watching the podcast and listening to Mints reactions to a lot of the questions, I think I see some inconsistencies in the results and what she was saying. Again, it is up to Mint herself to be the judge, but as an MBTI hobbyist and a Mint fan, I’m taking this one opportunity of mint talking about her own self and experiences to see if I can find a type of best fit.
The first thing I noticed is Mints relationship with planning and preparedness. On most questions asking about it, she would express that she needs to plan and prepare. There were a number of implications that without setting these things up, she wouldn’t get anything done, and that is far more nuanced than what the question can actually account for. On the 16 personalities test, agreeing to these questions nets you “J” points, but they almost have it backwards. It’s people who struggle with their own mental focus and staying on track that need to make lists, fill calendars, etc the most. Most specifically, the function that relates most to the organization and efficiency of tasks is extroverted thinking (Te). Mint seems to have an interesting relationship in that she makes herself do these things. She seems to imply, though, that it’s her nature not to. It’s her nature to procrastinate and to act in spurts (i.e: cleaning part of her desk, randomly moving to something else, then going back to finishing the desk). As I mentioned in my INFJ breakdown, your third function is one that you grow in adolescence and your 4th function is a cause for anxiety or stress in your life. I would posit that the Te function is either in Mint’s 3rd or 4th position. She does it, but it doesn’t come naturally.
In Carl Jung’s theory, everything comes in an equal and opposite balance. If Te is in her 3rd or 4th position, that would mean that the exact opposite decision making function would be in her 1st or 2nd position as a favored use. The opposite of thinking is feeling and the opposite of extroversion is introversion, so it would be introverted feeling (Fi) taking the place of her main decision making function. This function is defined by its user referencing their own feelings, wants, and needs to make decisions. When I say feeling, this does include emotions, but also can be a gut sense of what they should or shouldn’t do. If, for example, someone had a steady job, but quit to return to school all because it felt like that’s what they now wanted at the time, that would be a great display of Fi decision making. Fi users also have the hardest time making connections of all the types. They often need an authentic connection to someone and with no shared interests, can struggle to form deep bonds. The only types that use Fi as a strength and Te as something to grow are the xxFP types.
As mint was taking the test, she reported a lot of use of intuition, but interestingly, a lot of the 16 personalities questions regarding intuition largely center around Extroverted intuition (Ne). This function seems to be an obvious strength to Mint. It focuses on making connections between ideas. As a perceiving function, people who use this as a strength are incredibly good at seeing something and connecting it to something else that exists. People who see this world in this way are perceived by other types as being out of left field, goofy, or at its worst just crazy. People who use this and also lead with Fi decision making are also frequently fans of the underdog or underrated. An underground idol scene is a perfect example. All of this now would point me to think of Mint being an xNFP type.
Now it’s time to check if Mint is an E or an I. It’s important to note that extroversion and introversion in MBTI are very different from social extroversion and introversion. What it will determine here is if her strongest function is Introverted Feeling or Extroverted intuition. Honestly, at this point there’s not enough info from her quiz and past experiences for an outsider to observe, and there’s a decent case for both. While Mont reported high levels of introversion, she reported that her thinking and feeling are close to being used the same amount. If that were to be true, that would mean her thinking and feeling must be in positions 2 and 3, but that would make her an Extrovert. What I would ask Mint is what she feels most anxious about. Remember that the 4th function is a cause for anxiety and it is hardest to develop. Also remember that every function needs an opposite. With Assigning her extroverted intuition (Ne), we also have to assign her introverted sensing (Si) somewhere, a function we have yet to discuss. Si is the realm of perceiving things as they relate to your own sensibility, past, and experiences. So now I leave it to Mint. If xNFP feels accurate, which of the two choices feels more accurate?
INFP - a great sense of nostalgia. More habitual in behavior. A strong sense of stress and fear regarding organization of your life, more of a thinker than a doer. Mentally drained by reacting to the present moment; Needs time to take it in.
ENFP - while still draining, okay with getting things done, and it’s easy to do it for projects and plans you are excited for. More forgetful, not checking in with yourself as much as you should, and a tendency to impulsiveness. Comfortable being reactive to the world around you.
Or maybe INFJ was a great fit after all!
I knew there was a reason I was drawn to Mint, I'm an INFJ-T too! I was thinking ISFJ or INFJ, and I think it's cool to see my oshi has the same mbti!
As an mbti nerd this was an amazing episode ! Now we need one where yall learn functions and general jungian theory and the loop will be complete lmao
My reaction going through Mint's personality test was EXACTLY as Matara described it herself lol
The answers matched up like 90% of the time to the point it became sooooo freaky...
Like, it's really quite weird and almost scary how much we, as their longtime fans, actually know their personalities when, in reality, we don't even know these two irl or even have had any kind of conversation where we sit down to talk properly about each ones interests/likes and dislikes.
So yeah, loved this episode, BIG agree!
Would watch like 10 more episodes just with personality tests if they were as interesting as this one was.
Long long ago when I did the personality quiz I had the same as Matara, then when I took it during this pod to see if the decades of life changed how I respond to the questions... I got the same result as Mint. I'm a Vaporeon now..?
Outstanding video 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
Took a test once. Turned up negotiator, but this was 10+ years ago.
A bit late listening to this, but I just wanted to offer some INFJ solidarity with Mint. This was a lot of fun to listen to!
33:03 Lemme tell ya somethin': 🎵CLEANIN' MAKES ME FEEL GOOD!🎵
*sweeping and scrubbing noises*
🎵I am afraid of the mold🎵
🎵I am afraid of the hoarder🎵
Thanks for the episode, I really enjoyed learning what goes on inside that big, beautiful brain of Mint's (hopefully you don't feel too exposed), and didn't mind the video length at all. I _really_ didn't need the Vaporeon copypasta reference though lol.
VOD gang here one week late! I interpreted 47:07 a little differently from either of you - I felt like it meant that for personal projects, you prioritize doing things that are realistic over things that you're emotionally attached to, that are difficult or "inefficient" to do. So for instance, if you were organizing a music video, and there was a part you really wanted to include that would be difficult to put together, would you be more pragmatic about it or would you go the extra mile to include the emotional aspects you want, even if it's inefficient?
Mint is just like me For Real, For Real!
This episode gave me some stuff to think about. I have some new material to bring to my therapist.
