Bizinger was born on 28 September 1994, the son of a Japanese mother and an Australian father of Hungarian and German descent. Bizinger's mother wanted to ensure that he would retain his Japanese heritage by exclusively speaking Japanese to him and showing him Japanese anime on home video, with Doraemon, Sazae-san, and Pokémon being especially prevalent in his early childhood. He attended the Sydney Japanese School for a few years during primary school; however, his parents moved him to Allambie Heights Public School after being dissatisfied with the quality of education the Sydney Japanese School was providing. At the same time, they decided to enroll him and his younger sister Ellie in a Japanese language school on Saturdays to ensure they both kept learning the language.
