Connor on Chris' channel: "Akihabara is overrated."
Also Connor: "Today we are in Akihabara."
Great timing on the video releases lmao
I just finished watching that video on Chris's channel.
OH NOOOOOO!!! Most people agree that my vids are the worst on TH-cam. I agree to disagree. Please agree to disagree with the haters, dear ga
lmao exactly why I checked the comments
I saw that video but gonna watch that after this
@@AxxLAfriku I'll never stop reporting you
This video of all of you sends me in nostalgia because through this video, I found trash taste and it had to be the best thing that happened in 2020. I am so happy to see this and good clickbait.
I found out trash taste cause of the figure video they did last year
Same. I had already been casually watching Connor before Trash Taste and only heard of The Anime Man, but the original figure videos introduced me to Garnt and Joey and obviously the podcast.
Same
I always wondered why the anime figure episode didn’t win best episode during the awards as that episode is what launched them to where they are now.
Same i had watched a bit of conner and then i watched the fig trash taste vids and boom bow i watch all of them and they made my year so much better than it was
“So Garnt spent $400 on a milf figure, god I wish that were me”
We understand already, Connor. You’re a man who loves his milfs.
I was here first, like my comment.
When weeb needs his Calcium
He does not go for the milk
A man of taste.
Do you go to school, uni, or work? Or do you just spend all your life on youtube? What a wasted existence
@@Kage-jk4pj Someones jealous
Meilyne: "Look, it says no food or drinks allowed You're not allowed in here cuz you're such a snack"
Top 10 things girl will never say to you.
True
brb cry
I'm stealing that as a pickup line
Vivian Klaine Morgan, look her up
@@davidhudson3001 thanks, i just lookup her name
"You're not allowed here, because you're such a snack."
Yes, Meilyne. Yes he is.
And Meilyne too😏
It's a good time to be bi or pan. 😊
@@marynraven Pan here. And yes it is.
@@Paritan164 Pan? So you're back from hunting dragon balls? 🤣
@@Paritan164 ahh yess a versatile kitchen appliance
Joey and Connor: looks like 2 best friends in Highschool
Garnt: looks like your average street gangster
Who ironically used to be a monk XD.
grunt and gangster?? i don't think so
"Garnt: looks like your average street gangster"
...some bricks think diferent
@@a_me_1 wait!, really?
That's Grant the monk for you
My favorite thing is how Meilyne calls Connor both a monke and a snack.
Also a clown
yeah, that's awesome 😅
Maybe she's into monkes
Gotta appreciate the delicious monkes
Only his brain is monke. inner monke outer daddy
"He followed his heart, but he clearly didn't follow his dic-..."
-Joey, The Anime Man
*The Manga Man
@@thuranz2773 yup
The cultured man
The Anime Karen*
the individual budget going from 500 usd to above 3000 usd just shows how well trash taste and their individual channels are doing. much love boiiis
Meilyne and Connor as a team has big "older sis trying to teach her brother how to cheat discreetly" energy.
I'm actually surprise Conner didn't sweep that Jojo figure shelf clean.
Same
Run out
He wants it for himself
As he must already have most of them
He was doing a challenge and had to stay on budget. But he may go by later and clean house.
Can we all just agree the Meilyne is the goat and carried Connor through lots of the challenges.
Agreed.
(Meanwhile, Sydney making Garnt spent all his time on the Ecchi/Hentai section)
Oh 100 percent she did
@@alejandrovallejo6763 A S S
But still let Connor buy at least 6 Dios, thus losing points.
"Efficiency is not cheating"
-Meilyne
"If I buy this thing that I know nothing about and It will fuck over my friend it will be worth it"
-connor
I love Connor and Meyline’s interactions. She has such a playful personality.
my favorite anime, the soviet union
What I learn from this video: Meilyn is vicious, competitive, likes making silly puns, MVP camera women, and should definitely start her own TH-cam channel
I'd definitely watch Meilyn's channel where she goes through various restaurants in Japan and rate them
I want the confidence and energy she has. She is goals.
She should! I love her already
I'm impressed and proud to hear Connor ask the cashier "is credit card ok" in Japanese.
he has been learning japanese for 2 years.
@@miks_w8945 And lives in Japan, so what's your point? Can't a guy be happy that he's picking up the language?
@Richard's Shorts Yes, that is what happened. Again, is there an issue with that? I'm sorry if I get that learning another language, especially when you're older, isn't an easy thing to do.
@@faboo2001 lmao i didn't know how this ended up turning into an argument i was just simply making the point thats its no surprise connor can say basic japanese phrases since hes been living in japan and learning japanese for two years. There is no issue
@@miks_w8945 No worries, there's no argument between us.
"you cant be in here because youre such a snack" good one meilyn, very smooth
Time stamp pls?
@@FreeConqueror 19:37
@@0206-l8c thanks buddy
Hi yami
Watching Garnt squat is like watching someone draw a heretical amount of cards in UNO.
Meilyne is so helpful..she even called Connor a snack😭
Time stamp ?
19:37 lol haha
Just casually walking into a anime figure shop and blowing thousands of dollers is every weebs dream
Something i will never be able to do
Predicting it right now, Connor is going to make the most reasonable, calculated purchases of the three, but on the fourth store he'll notice a JoJo suit and have to go back to all the other ones to return his findings to afford the drip.
True! She even used some pick-up lines on him too, aha
@@ravenriverdale9381 what?
Connor: Cheats by looking at Garnts paper.
Also Connor: Calls Joey a cheater for breaking a rule that he just made up.
Gart...That's a new one
What the hell are you talking about
@@adarshkushwaha2071 The video
26:02 это было обидно, Конор настоящий клоун.
What? What do you mean?
16:56
"There's Minecraft!"
"Where?"
"Right here."
" *STEVE--* "
Just coming back from Chris video where he literally said, Akihabara is overrated 😂😂
literally 10mins ago 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Lmao I was looking for this comment hahaha
He is silly af lol
I'm glad Connor was able to upload his perspective the same time as the other guys. Unlike last time haha
Funny how he struggled to buy a figure to a show none of the boys watched, when I feel like he passed an ENTIRE SECTION of Gundam that I’m sure they haven’t watched in one specific era.
@@TheDarkkilla12 if he didn't know gundam well enough he wont know what series did they watch or not or he get the ver ka version which iirc is a redesign or some sort that isnt "canon"
"No one like Rem but you"
Oh Meilyne, why would you hurt me like that
🔫 :( not Rem!
Well she's not wrong
@@hei7846 I’m with Connor on this one i like Rem
@@ItsShaz1 I'm with Meilyne on this one
@@hei7846 She is.....
I love how casually Meilyne says "bribe the shopkeepers"
i would just only buy jojo figures
Honestly, this video confirms what we all knew. Meilyne is queen.
😂
Yeah, I really like Meilyne 😁
Connor: Get a figure from a show none of the boys have watched
My Nerd Brain: PRECURE PRECURE PRECURE PRECURE PRECURE
At one point near the end there's a bunch of precure figures and I was like give meeee
@@Zulf85 I know, I actually squealed 🤩
Smile smile smile smile precure wa
Did someone say Precure?!
That was my thought! Cause like Joey once got a Precure figure and was clueless as heck over it while another Precure merch he got he mistook for Cardcaptor Sakura which still baffles me to this day.
Claim your “here within an hour” ticket right here
yes, first time early
More like here in 2 minutes
yuh
Ticket claimed
Oooop
Connor you're the one who introduced me to trash taste from the figure challenge last year and I'm glad i clicked on that video it's been an amazing experience thank you ❣
Also I'm jealous I wanna live in Japan as well😖
OMG, same! >
28:09 You just broke my heart :'c
Yeah I was like “Dude!”.
Connor and Meilyne ultimate camera woman and presenter duo.
Agreed, she is so damn funny. Wish she collabed more in these videos.
"No one likes Rem except for you"
Officer that is the moment I felt personally attacked.
👮♀️ officer I have witnessed a crime!
But really I love Rem just an much as Monke!
Ram>Rem
@@عبدالرحمنهندي-ل2ط :|
Felt.
Garnt looks so much more comfortable on camera compared to the first time they did this challenge. Brings a tear into my eye :')
Yup! It's so great to see!
@Shay
Didn't Joey say that?
watching connor's japanese getting better throughout all these videos is really heartwarming
I think I need a friend like Connor…I need a reason to spend this much on figures
Me, as one of the biggest Ganbare Dōki-Chan fans: "I hope they find the Dōki-chan figure they recently made, that shits awesome."
22:45 - Holy crap there's literally one right there
based taste homie
OH SHIT
Seeing Connor torture Garnt with the Re:Zero figures had me rolling XD
Hope Monke wins a lot of points!
Monke is gonna kill it!! 💪
Spoiler:
Garnt won
I can't believe you guys posted all of your videos at the same time like I got all three video notifications literally at the same time; it's incredible the energy the coordination.
TIS ANIME RELATED VIDEO? I WATCH.
Who is “you guys”? Like their channel names because I need more channels to follow
@@LeeDee5 gigguk and the anime man
You can schedule the exact time a video comes out
so incredible the amount of time and energy it took to click their mouses and set a time for the videos to be released much wow
Meilyne: "No one likes Rem except you!"
My boyfriend and I would like a word with you. Just kidding. I bought a Rem figure for him one time and since he's from another country, I dread the moment I have to give it to him when he visits because it's so cute. You could say I took the saying "Buy something that would make yourself happy" to heart and yeah... Sharing waifus is definitely a potential downside to being in a relationship with another weeb, haha.
Edit: I accidentally turned my anime figure collection into a shrine for Rem... "Accidentally." My bank account is crying.
28:46 "Whenever I'm lost in my life, I think I should watch JoJo or do something JoJo." -Connor
Words to live by, my dude
Melyne is the best cameraman holy shit. She needs to be in more videos lmao
Her, Sydney, and Aki need to do an entire trash taste episode themselves
"Bribe the shopkeeper"
Joey: * Writes that down *
(Also BNA figure? Jealous!)
Poor Garnt, he took the challenge like a champ. he's great
9:03 Excuse me! Rem is number one waifu and nothing anyone says will change my mind. I have respect for Connor for liking Rem almost as much as me.
Connor: "What has Joey watched recently?"
Maelynne: "Well, I know he saw Redo of Healer."
Good lord no. It's called the Trash Taste Podcast, not the *No* Taste Podcast!
Meilyne about gojo's pose and pointing out that "thin ankles inside of a boot" is pretty hot .... made me realize that yes, yes it is pretty hot LOL
Bruh, you bought a Grindelwald figure, out of every figure you could've bought. I would've just returned it after seeing the Pirates of the Carribean figures.
WE NEVER KNOW what fun and random idea CDawgVA will come up with next 😂 LOVE THIS CHANNEL . . . and great thumbnail by the way ❤
TH-camrs: "Don't start a TH-cam channel thinking you can make a living out of it, it really doesn't pay all that well"
Also TH-camrs: "Watch me spend 10,000 dollars on anime figures/random streamers/paper cups/whatever!"
Yeah but like these are youtubers who work under a broad area. Patreons for each, twitch donations/subs, youtube revenue for their individual channels as well as a patreon and revenue and a twitch channel for trash taste. They were smart about it
It was kind of funny to see how Connor accidentally sabotaged himself so much
23:56 I feel like I’m the only kamen rider fan that watches trash taste so I’m gonna just scream right now. REVICE lets gooo. I haven’t watched it yet... but will
an idea for other challenges fo the next time (because we all know there will be a next time): a M1LF figure, a L0li figure, a Tr@p/Femboy figure, and a figure from an anime of the actual season, what do you think?
26:10 всё, решено! Я собираю вещи и сегодня же выезжаю в Акихобару за фигуркой Сталина! К слову, лучшей аниме девочкой....
the most fun part about you 3 guys videos was that whenever i finish a timeline part of the location video, i would pause and watch the next person first and next before proceeding the next location. that way its kinda in sync for the podcast haha
Out of the three of them garnt just followed his heart ✨👏, joey was (kinda) cheating but still it was hilarious and what he said wasn’t….wrong👀👀😂😂😂✨✨✨✨ while connor is stressing out but still found some time to make garnt suffer 😂😂👏👏✨✨✨✨
The more I watch this video and hear the narrations the more I get nervous about Connors chances of winning..
Conner 2 years ago, I am scared to spend money on things. Conner now, splash $10,000 in my 1k jacket on plastic lol.
Good on ya man.
It‘s so impressive to see the amount of figures that exist… in my country so far I only found one store that sold 5 different figures and went out of business a few months later. I guess people just do not want anime stuff here…
Lol do you live in India? Cuz I have the exact same problem
Nvm you're from Belgium lmao
@@raunakshahi Come to Malaysia my dude, or heck any of the Southeast Asian nations. Most of us are people of refined culture.
@@someorclad9738 You're probably not gonna believe me, but south east Asia is literally on top of my bucketlist of places to visit! I love y'all and your culture and have always wanted to live there for a while! So definitely gonna visit Malaysia and all the others!
@ʟᴀᴢʏ 死 Yea ik its sad 😭
Respect for connor for actually wiring "tried" in the title instead of straight up lying saying he spent 10k like the other 2.
Connor: Spending $10,000 On Anime Figures In Japan
also connor: *And I won life*
That's actually hilarious because I own that first figure that Connor had to pick at random XD They're definitely not gonna be able to display that at the office.
Love how they tweeted AND uploaded at the same time.
The power of the big 3 is unified.
I think counting all Star Wars characters as characters from an anime, just because Visions came out is like counting Sonic or Kirby as anime characters, because they both had TV series. The characters didn't originate from anime, which I think is how it should be ruled. It's even harder to define what is considered an "anime character," because every cartoon is considered an anime in Japan. Despicable Me is an anime.
I think for their purposes they’re using “anime” to mean “Japanese animation”, despite the fact that this distinction doesn’t exist in Japan itself.
But I agree-just because there is a Star Wars anime doesn’t mean every Star Wars product is now anime merchandise .
dear connor, please dont make statements about persons whom u have zero clue about. If a hitler for you is equal to Stalin, that's a shame for the value of your knowledge about the world.
Seeing a man whose kill count literally extends towards the millions get immortalized as a toy AND be classified in the same category as anime figurines is tremendously terrifying 26:07
10:11 Connor's reaction when he heard that there was a monkey, LOL
I used to watch Gigguk and found you and Joey last year when you all started trash taste and did the figure special. So this feels nostalgic
LOL the Star Wars "Kenner" figure, is just a modern mass-produced figure in classic Kenner packaging, it sells for around $25 retail (but a character like Han Solo is liable to go on sale).
20:30 Connor's competitive side reaching scary levels of madness is relatable on a level I never knew existed. And I've done some petty stuff to win a contest XD
Those 200$ for Grindelwald might be the worst money Connor ever spent...yes, I know, he has a swimsuit with Kermits open butt on it.
Oh god, my urge to by figurines is already showing itself, and this is only the first of the challenge videos I watched... now onto the next two before the finale!
28:32
connor: "yo check out this cursed michael jackson figure"
me: "kat gravity rush kat gravity rush"
We may be few, but we won't forget her. Kat gravity rush Kat gravity rush
Yessss finally another video where y’all spend an absurd amount on figures thank you for fulfilling what my wallet can’t
In Amiami when they were pulling challenges there was a bunch of stuff from Shiroi Suna no Aquatope! I love that series so much
oh my gosh, I wish I could have been there to see all that...it would have been SO hard to pick something in my budget and be able to walk out of there ...I would want 100 things!
20:02 My boi stanning the Index franchise. *Hell YEAH!*
I would instantly give him the win for that "This way" Gon figure.
9:10 That Jotaro figure I actually bought at a local convention back in 2019 for like $30 IN THE BOX. It is from the early 2000s and it's wild!
Should've maybe looked for Chainsaw Man for the 'anime they haven't seen'
That Megumi figure was awesome! I don't collect figures but I'd put that on my shelf
There's an interesting idea for you. Have Connor, Joey, and Garnt be the Cameraperson and do a role swap in the Figure Challenge. Set the budget and have them do the general challenges. We can feature Meyline, Navi, and Ashley in this special.
Another separate figure challenge idea: Regular figure challenge, but you can't get any Jojo figures. For each Jojo figure bought, you lose 1 point. Additional 2 points deducted for if any of them are duplicates (One time deduction). All of them are so into Jojo that this makes it a challenge. Change "Rem" into "any character from Jojo" for the squats challenge.
I miss those shops so much. This pandemic can't end soon enough. I sympathize with Connor's feelings at the end though. After a day looking up and down shelf after shelf after shelf of anime stuff my brain is simply overloaded with impressions.
Yeah, your brain go smush smush at the end. 🤣😅
Connor in the hen-tai area knew exactly what he was doing
EXACTLY 😂
"I don't really like Digimon"
Is this what it feels like to be disappointed in someone youve never met?
hearing connor say “we want the milf” over and over again had me cackling i love you guys
Imagine if Connor did the "grab a figure with eyes closed" and he grabbed a loli figure HAHAHA
My favorite thing about Connor’s videos are the “Travel Channel” vibe they give off. It’s relaxing and nostalgic.
That’s why I got deca vu from his videos!
thank you for all the content, you all work so hard! i've been having a rough few months with the passing of my grandma and overall mental health decline, but your videos allow me to forget about all my problems and help me smile. i adore all 3 of you, especially you connor! thank you for helping me get through my darkest days.
So strange feeling so happy while watching the boys just being themselves
CDawgVA за оскорбление товарища Сталина, за вами выехала машина с надписью "ХЛЕБ".
CDawgVA for insulting Comrade Stalin, a car with the inscription "ХЛЕБ" has left for you.
'I tried spending 10k on anime figures in Japan'
My guy. I'm sure anyone who's watching this video can do the same thing in any place of the world they are currently living in.
It's not like you can get a life sized gear 4 Luffy for $15.
Ah, so you're watching Connor's video first too?
Connor is such a normie to not even recognize Hot Toys figures but be able to buy it without thinking.
In the video released today on Chris broads channel...
Connor: Akihabara is so over rated and has gone down hill
*Also Connor* : Lets spend $10,000 in Akihabara!
Garnt's biggest regret, skipping leg day
21:57 why wouldn't you get the eva lobster????
