I was listening to the video while laying down and I was like who's this guy... he kinda sounds like Alvin?? Surprised to actually find out it was you when I went into the comments to confirm 😂
@@TheMunchingGamer and you do understand Babish changed the channel from Binging with Babish to Babish Culinary Universe. When he announced this he said he would have others cooking as well.
That's 50% of anime protagonists in a nutshell tho, they hit you with the "ooh I'm too weak" while destroying thirteen universes with their left hand (looking at you, Goku), while the other 50% is just "you fool, you activated my 11037th consecutive trap card!"
Alvin sounds like the type of guy to break into your house at 3AM, make you the nicest breakfast you could’ve thought of and tuck you in again if you wake up whilst he’s doing it.
this, April fools is traditionally the day on TH-cam when everyone uploads incredibly lame and predictable gag videos that annoy everyone.. but the tradition has thankfully been fading for years, and this was great.
Every single time Babish says ‘no resistance when stabbed’ I think ‘like me’ and to hear somebody finally say it on the show...I jumped outta my chair and yelled VINDICATION like Holt in 99 🤣
I love how this started as an April Fool's joke, but now Alvin and Anime with Alvin are both a regular in the Babish Kitchen and channel. I love Alvin's other content. :)
agreed. for the first 10 seconds i was still processing it, like "wait, who is this guy and why is he here? i dont like it...", but that feeling quickly turned into "haha, i like him. I approve"

That can't actually be Alvin. He didn't take an entire week to make that pork roast. Also, I've been waiting for this babish episode for years and I was not disappointed.
babish: alvin? what are you doing? alvin: im making mock pork roast babish: it's 3 in the morning, why on earth are you making mock pork roast? alvin: because ive lost control of my life
I'm not kidding when I want to see more Anime with Alvin. Too many amazing dishes from Ghibli films and 'Restaurant from Another World' I'd love to see made.
There should be a mini series of guest celebrity chefs doing episodes of Binging with Babish as they attempt to do their best impression of Andrew like this one.
Seven years ago, when the show first aired, I was in middle school. Having recently gotten into anime, with hormones raging, I thought I’d watch that anime that combined two of my favorite things at the time: Hot anime girls and food. (Took culinary every year as an elective. Loved that class.) I remember seeing this dish and looking up accurate recreations of it. None were super close. And now, finally, after seven long years and a third of my life later, the wait is over. I have finally found what I was looking for all those years ago.
*“This is a potato”* *“This is my hands”* *“This is a nice potato.”* *“i like this potato.”* *“Lets turn you into pork, little buddy!”* THIS BY DEFINITION IS *COMEDY GOLD*
Oohhh imagine if someone turn these series into an actual anime?! Maybe it was something like "Making **food name** from **anime name** (Anime with Alvin) - Anime version"
I actually like Alvin visiting Babish's kitchen! The two most loved chefs i watch on youtube! the one that loves making things big and the other replicating food from shows or games
Thanks for coming by Alvin, even at 3AM! Go check out Alvin’s amazing channel: th-cam.com/users/AlvinZhou1
i love u man
You should to the “Pork Picnic” from regular show. The episode about a vip and it gives you the ingredients to the sand which 😌❤️
Hi
Please please please bring him on regularly for anime with Alvin 🙏

So underrated
That was my favorite line and this whole episode is gold.
The way he innocently talks, yet says alarming things really livens up the vibe 😂
"No resistance when stabbed, just like me" was an A+ line.

"it was very simple all I needed was this drill this Alvin and this potato"

sounds like he's talking from experience.
I read this while it happened so I laughed harder.
"No resistance when stabbed; just like me." Aw, Alvin.

There's a certain gravitas to Babish that's just instantly recognizable.

@@localoppboy7668 yeah exactly, no problem with Alvin but like this is Babish’s Channel. I subscribed for him and his Binging With Babish videos

What's even the point of forming a Culinary Universe if we don't make AwA a semi regular thing
“No resistance when stabbed, just like me.” Um Alvin are you speaking from personal experience or?
Alvin's voice over is so lawfully evil. Very menacing statements said with a voice as soothing as floating in double cream.
That is one of the best descriptions I've ever heard.
Put some milk so it’s richer 2:04
Alvin sounds like the type of guy to break into your house at 3AM, make you the nicest breakfast you could’ve thought of and tuck you in again if you wake up whilst he’s doing it.
Alvin's sweetness would make him a master of deception and therefore be among the tops of criminal ranking.
This isn’t an April fools joke- this is an April fools GIFT
this, April fools is traditionally the day on TH-cam when everyone uploads incredibly lame and predictable gag videos that annoy everyone.. but the tradition has thankfully been fading for years, and this was great.
