Quick answer
Movement, speech, energy, and thinking sliders explained
Use movement, speech, energy, and thinking to reason about the chart. They are the four practical sliders this site uses for personality matching, while overall stays a visual helper.
GSC already shows searches around energy, energetic personalities, and flat-versus-varied wording. Those are not random: players often remember one slider label but not the whole personality system.
Movement is the pacing signal. Speech is the communication signal. Energy describes intensity or emotional range. Thinking describes whether the Mii reads more serious, relaxed, structured, or loose.
This site keeps those labels visible in the recipe table, type pages, and calculator so a user can start from a half-remembered slider and still reach the right personality.
Useful takeaways
What to remember
Movement answers how fast or active the Mii feels.
Speech answers how direct or polite the Mii feels.
Energy answers flat-to-varied or calm-to-intense searches.
Thinking answers serious-to-relaxed interpretation searches.
Process
Use this workflow

Step 2
Connect the slider to recipes
Show concrete recipe values and links to type pages so the explanation is useful, not just definitional.
Step 3
Offer nearby pages
Energy searches often lead into Dynamo, Charmer, Cheerleader, or Reserved contrast pages.
