About

Shine has two channels, one English channel, and another with his best friend Kat, called "Kat and Shine". He used to only have a Japanese channel, one in which he no longer uses. His Let's Plays have some FUN in Minecraft (A Minecraft Parody of When Can I See You Again?) is his most viewed video.
It can only be assumes his full name is Shine Tachibana as seen on his twitter account.
He did YouTube part-time and worked on a Manga with Kat (she draws the art while he writes) and he sometimes made tshirts with Kat and sold them for extra-cash to support themselves.
However, in December 2016, he abandoned his Einshine channel to create a new YouTube channel called ShinePHD. On December 18, 2017, Shine announced that he was quitting YouTube. He stated his reason for quitting as YouTube was not a stable source of income and he has gotten a regular job.
