Damn, nobody gives a shit about the demons slayer conversation. Everybody is just mad at Connor for his take and it's hilarious😂
cuz its no so much a "shit take" but his entire misunderstanding of the plot is so far off to what actually happened.
@ultratobsV2 Haven't watched the show that was being discussed. But after the entertaining discourse, I might check it out.
@@novelphantasm376 you finnished it?
I just don't get why he's mad at Demon Slayer when JoJo's has a bunch of the same cliches throughout.
@@Jokin_JakeAs a die hard Demon Slayer fan, everything about JoJo's is so perfect it's insane.
My main problem with Demon Slayer is that every season is basically one fight, with a little plot sprinkled in.
literally, that’s why i feel like season 1 was the best season
@@unreformed.yup 100%. i like the show but the plot lacks a bit. i can’t even be mad when people say it’s carried by animation.
People ignoring the storytelling and being like 'Where's the fight?'.
@@Dharengoi cant help but think people who say that are just adhd induced when they open the show like is it hard to just appreciate it
Yeah season 1 was def the best, I like the other hashiras but I think the smaller seasons hurt the overall show. 13 episode arcs tend to be good if it's a miniseries, but Demon Slayer will be ongoing for a while so that format sucks
Is anyone really surprised that someone like Connor would not like Oshi no Ko?
Nah I think it makes sense connor doesn’t like it lol
But he has Vtuber friends. Maybe that's why?
Honestly I would've been beyond shocked if he even had the slightest amount of liking and intrest towards it
i dont think ive ever agreed with connor on a single take he has which is weird cuz ive watched him over over a year lol
Connor clearly didn't pay attention to the plot though.
Aqua is looking for the girl because the kids got worried and they couldn't reach her and the tik tok thing was to show the haters that context was misrepresented to stop the bullying not her depression.
Connors Oshi no ko take actually needs to be on the trash taste awards for either “worst take” or “I made it the f up”
Wdym? That's one of his best take alongside his take on blue lock. I wish he hates mid paradise too
@@afroowl9933 leave the goat paradise alone
@@afroowl9933you do realize that’s an indictment on his takes right?
Oshi no ko is ass
So now people can't even have their own personal opinion?
I'm honestly starting to see how Connor processes media. Like he just needs stimulation no matter what he's consuming.
He'll skip cutscenes for a narrative heavy, character driven video game, but then clown on Garnt for skipping John Wick 3 before watching 4.
Hey look, I love the John Wick franchise, John Wick 4 in particular is amazing, but the story is the LEAST important part of that series. All you need to know is that the high table is chasing down Wick, and THATS IT.
thats zoomer brains in a nutshell tho, needs consistent and instant stimulation
You say that but he has continuously professed his love for Better Call Saul, which a lot of anime fans don't even give a chance to because "nothing ever happens in it."
Damn that's sad. I wonder when he last read a book
I think he just doesnt enjoy animes shows that is too "anime" if that makes sense.
@@anotheryoutubeuser THANK YOU! I WAS GONNA POINT OUT THE SAME THING! Yes, Connor can be outrageous with his takes sometimes, but people act like he's dumb asf 24/7. He's professed multiple times that he loves multi-layered, methodical, and slow (in a good way) stories like Hunter X Hunter, Vinland Saga, and Better Call Saul. If Connor is truly is as dumb as people say he is, I don't think he would even get near Better Call Saul.
What is Connor on?? If your friend, who has become the punching bag of the nation and has clearly been doing bad mentally, told you that they were going out to buy food during a typhoon and then stopped answering any messages of warning I would argue you’d a TERRIBLE friend for not going to look for her
Especially if you're actually a well-trained doctor like Aqua
Yeah and he literally explained the next episode that the group got worried about her so he and Mem-cho went out looking for her, and he was just following the route from her place to the nearest konbini and saw her get up on the bridge.
He probably went to make some Tea while it was happening cause he was losing interest in the show in the first place.
@@Sal-tw4cdnah, I think it's just his monkey genes.
Yes sleep on it m8. It will become popular later on for sure.
It sounds like if Connor translated his taste of anime to movies he would fucking love fast and furious
If there aren't fights and explosions happening every 10 seconds his ass is not listening 😭😭😭
Well he said tokyo drift was part of what influenced him to want to go to japan
F U! Fast and the Furious is PEAK!
Hell's Paradise getting more discussion than Heavenly Delusion is a travesty and an injustice.
There is simply no comparison between the two yet one gets all the discussion while the other one gets the Anime of the Season award and is barely talked about.
Heavenly Delusion was so so much better than Hell's Paradise imo. HP fell off HARD in the 2nd half
Yea imma be straight can’t agree hells paradise is the most underrated of the dark trio good power system and great mystery aspect to it not just a turn you’re Brian off shit,
@@poragami7493 yeah, I like the premise of Hell's Paradise and the characters, but the execution was flawed, especially where it abruptly ended. I might just read the manga b/c I heard anime rushed some parts, but Heavenly Delusion was masterclass, loved that show
@@willschnur9946 I liked Hell's Paradise more than JJK, it's a good show for sure but has aspects holding it back, mainly the rushed and uneven pacing. But it has a lot of potential so I hope ppl don't dismiss it
Man I see so many people saying this
Shut up you're not special
i think connor was just not paying attention to oshi no ko, its literally explained right away that she had texted on a group chat she was going out in the middle of a storm and they all went looking for her since it was dangerous. He wasnt stalking her, he just happened to be the one who found her since he thought of going from her home to the nearest convinience store. Also her getting hate took like an entire episode to get to and its explained why she did it. Aqua was already smart, although yeah the whole protag being a planner thing is very anime. Idk weird take but very connor
Also they didnt fix Akane's mental health with editing, they fixed her reputation so the hate would stop
Yeah i felt that aswell. Atleast Garnt and Joey paid attention to the show.
I like the show but people never forget, so it was unrealistic… but the show had to do it so yeah…
@@sushkevin883they didn't forget. Read the manga for the arc
@@Litgaming776 not much
@@sdbzfan1 Better then connor
While I disagree with Connor's take, I'd be lying if I said I didn't find it hilarious when Akane assumes Ai has secret kids by basically going yandere on her😂😂
As, I remember she doesn't said she had a kid, but had sex as teenager and having kids is a strong possibility since her sudden disappearances , which is not that hard, if we ask some old folks, to guess it they will give the answer within days and considering ai have tons of public photos,so akane has enough input
@@chaitanmallick7339 Mhm you're right, but she did later say to Aqua in a following episode that she suspects Ai might have had a secret kid.
@@devilix123987 Just verified, she doesn't say that. She says that to play her, she assumed some things she thinks would fit her character, and gives as example the fact that she assumed she had a hidden kid. She doesn't say that she suspects she did, just that it's a way for her to get into her personality as she feels that might be something she'd do
@@thepierre396 Yeah, that's what I meant, she unknowingly predicts that Ai had a secret child.
I thought that was dumb when the episode aired, but in the next couple episodes it’s clarified that she’s just constructing a version of Ai she can inhabit in a performance. She just happens to get a lot of stuff right.
I remember Garnt saying about attention span and Joey don't agree with that. And herw we are as example with Connor forgetting the obvious detail being shown on screen in the anime to outright tell the viewers what happened 😂
Right
they also had talking babies on screen. let's not pretend anything in the show should be taken seriously.
The way neither Joey or Garnt counter Connor’s basic misunderstanding of the plot is weird. It feels like they haven’t actually watched the episode or something.
i kinda get him ngl, he is rationalizing the plot and that's why it fails to please him.
@@stoner9149kinda funny to make that point about 'rationalising' the plot is what's bad when Connor misunderstood even the most basic plot of the anime. Sounds to me like he failed at step 1 of proper 'rationalising'.
that's actually normal. what's weird is watching anime, and what's really weird is caring about the plot of an idol, shounen, or isekai anime.
@@rumfordcwhat?
@@oliviaaargh misunderstanding plot points is normal. watching anime is weird. its pretty simple. you ok?
Connor officially won "Worst take of 2023" with that Oshi no Ko rant
he's getting that award by a land slide
Best take*
@@sohamlovessicilian.7387 Not when its almost entirely based on false information.
@@AnimeFlyz yeah , but if someone doesn't like it , let him not like it. It's his opinion.
I see random ass noobs calling oshi no ko a masterpiece with every ep 10/10.
I mean if that were the case then it's rating wouldn't have been less than 9.
@@sohamlovessicilian.7387 OK so you are kinda not getting the point. Nobody cares that Connor dislikes a popular anime. Anybody who knows Connor would be able to predict he wouldn't like ONK. Its the fact that all the shit he was saying about it was pulled out of his ass. He even admits on his Twitch that he wasn't paying attention to what was happening. You don't need to dick ride him.
sometimes i feel like connor just says something for the sake of saying it and there’s no real opinion behind it 😂
Never really cared bout Connors take on anime, dudes like watching top 10 anime battles on the internet and thats it.
So when your friend texts your group chat saying they're going out in the middle of a typhoon, you going to look for them out of concern is considered stalking and creepy. Taking notes.
Be honest, you dont really think connor remembered that
Reminder that content creators normally are scum irl so yeah
Thats different
That part of the anime is dealing with mental issues. Every little things you do going to escalate for the person in trouble
@@KenBladehart Not sure what you mean by that being different. Because someone has mental issues that makes it a bad/creepy thing to not want them to wind up dead in a typhoon?
@@Sarakitteh There are millions other ways to do it. People are quick to just rush things
Garnt and Joe really suck at defending their taste
Even when Connor is wrong about something he'll appologize later when he's wrong but he goes all in on defending why he feels that way
Garnt couldnt remember the reason Aqua was the one to save Akane was because he was smart enough to check the closest convience store to her house, he wasnt stalking her, like come on Garnt
And they didnt fix her depression they helped her reputation, they even state people still thought the video was just crowd control but the over all hate slowed down enough for her to return
If you're gonna hate something at least be correct about why you dislike it
Fr tho lol
I mean the fact that they enjoy bad anime enough to put it in their 3x3 is telling. I like Plan 9 from Outer Space, but I’m not putting it in my top 50 movies of all time, it’s crazy.
@@thomasffrench3639
3x3 was just meant to be series that showed off their personal taste, not what they thought was objectively well written or done, that's why they clowned Connor for just having shows that are super well regarded
Yeah fix the reputation so no more harassing online and after that is upto her on how to recover with the help of ger crew mates comforting her. A lot of people lately suffer attention span
@@thomasffrench3639 That's just them being more honest than you. The whole point of the 3x3 was to show their subjective taste, even when the show in itself isn't actually that good. Heck, they even mocked Connor for doing exactly what you're describing here
As soon as Connor starting talking I went straight to the comments cuz I knew his ass would get fried lol he definitely just skimmed thru Oshi no Ko and was not paying attention 😭
connor’s opinion on episode 6 of Oshi No Ko is so bad.. aqua isn’t stalking akane. him and the other cast members were out to look for her since she has been mentally unstable for a few days. and as a good human being, it is your duty to look out for the people in need.
i’ve heard bad takes before but damn
Thiisssss
Take is bad, but oshi no ko ia not good
@@RicardoSilva-nr8st i'd rather someones critic of a show be correct if they dislike something than just be blatantly wrong
@@RicardoSilva-nr8st It really isn't bad, Idk how ppl think it's bad when, In my opinion, it's one of or is the anime of the year
Typical connor haha.
This podcast is truly honoring its name
Connor's take on Oshi no ko is actually mind-boggling
They literally explained in detail why Akane's public image was flipped
And Aqua finding her is not creepy at all, just a "suspend disbelief" moment
Yeah Connor has a monkey brain
I mean it's Connor right?
So yeah😂
@@shahrilofficialoh boy, looks like the oshi no mid fans are getting jealous on Connor's opinion on an overrated anime.
@@zainanis2585 Not our fault Connor is Patient Zero of a new virulent strain of TikTok brain. Maybe he'd pay attention if we replaced the subtitles with Subway Surfers gameplay.
@@notme8232 😆
I rly resonated with Hell’s Paradise even though it’s simple as a premise. Something abt the way they do the characters is effective. Maybe it’s just me but it’s one of my faves now
When I talk with casual anime viewers about Demon Slayer we have the most awesome conversations with some criticisms here or there. But when I dare to talk with "hardcore" anime viewers the hate Demon Slayer (or even me that I like it) receives is astonishing and worth for a scientific study. I understand that is unoriginal in its development and premise but I don't care, it's like steak with potatoes but possibly the best steak with potatoes ever and I love it.
Nah, it's a steak with potatoes that is only good 1/10 times you order it. Season 2 was great, but 80% of season 1 was horrible and season 3 barely had 1 good episode.
Yeah I don’t know who is more annoying: Demon Slayer haters or Zenistu.
Here's the thing: If you can factually and calmly defend your opinion of disliking something it simply can't be called hate, no matter how negative the opinion is, because hate is an abstract feeling that makes one loose all inhibitions and reason.
The problem actually lies with you, enthusiasts, you "just don't care" as you yourself stated. Us "haters" (more like voice of reason) do however care about defending our opinion and calling bad entertainment out for what it is. Everything that is only turn-your-brain-of bullshit is objectively bad, no matter the entertainment value. That is the reason why entertainment made for kids usually fails, whereas things like How To Train Your Dragon work instead.
Unfortunately, this doesn't seem to be the case with DS and most isekai for example. But Isekai I can at least understand why.
@@thomasffrench3639demon slayer meat riders easily
@@notimportant0000 You pretty much said nothing. Try again.
Connor disliking Demon slayer this season because it’s not as hype just makes me realize the guy wants constant stimulation from an anime or video game or he doesn’t like it, dude probably watches those NPC Tik Tok streams to get his daily dose of stimulation 😂😂
The weird thing is that it was all action but I still didn't find it very compelling
Or let me tell you something crazy. the arc was really bad
Or, hear me out... maybe it's because Demon Slayer is not compelling enough to keep interest without the hype.
You couldn't tell with his "skipping the cutscenes" and "music is just beeps and boops" takes from near the beginning of Trash Taste?
Or maybe because the only reason demon slayer is worth watching is cause of the hype.
connor is living up to the trash taste name with those oshi no ko takes.
idk looks cringe af. Weebs are weird we get it
like brooo
Connor when see a show where people are dying
“Aw yeah good entertainment”
So I guess he would've liked Oshi no Ko if Akane had actually, you know
I am very curious to see what Gigguk thought of the final two episodes of Heavenly delusion
I like Demon Slayer, I’m watching these shows for myself and nobody else.
The despair in hells paradise doesn’t work for me because 5 minutes later they magically understand the power system and then right after are able to use it semi efficiently. Like what was the actual point of having it at all Iif it’s not a legitimate challenge to use
The consequence is that if they use it enough it eats away at their tao and starts heavily affecting them… how is that not a challenge
because there will be consequence in using Tan, iwagakure shinobi gonna raid the island, elixir didn't actually exist and there's no logical way to leave the island
Demon Slayer's got killer animation but gotta be honest the story and characters make me shiver with how much I don't give a shit about 'em, couldn't get past 1st season sorry.
70% of their takes are SOOOO BADDDDD WHY?????? 😂😂😂😭😭😭 Like theyre not even mildly understandable??? Its like they watch the shows with half their brains activated. How do people have this kind of audacity?? I cant fathom it...
I'll just say this after the hashira training arc finishes, the infinity castle arc is gonna be on of best arcs of demon slayer
15:53 it didn’t stop you from starting Fate out of order, but you won’t watch Gundam which has beginner friendly installments? You aren’t missing anything if you start with the new one.
I don't think it's fair to say the Demon Slayer is mid or generic, but I do admit it's formulaic and suffers from pacing issues due to excessive flashbacks. Now, following a formula is not necessarily a bad thing, and excessive flashbacks are a problem for the whole genre. The series is not the best battle shounen in terms of writing, but it's definitely better than 90% of most anime, in my opinion.
100%
Connor once again proving that he has Trash Taste
All of them have trash taste😂
The red district arc was so much better than last season, people love to shit on Zenitsu and a little bit on Inosuke but they are the best characters to pair Tanjiro with, i dont think the new characters were that interesting
Red light district is an overrated arc, and is why the carried by animation phenomenon exists.
i think its the last good arc, the rest of the story felt rush and a lot of flashback in the middle of battle is really annoying
@@thomasffrench3639 the red light district arc was a level above the swordsmith village arc, at least for the anime. The payoff for s3 was very lackluster and the stakes never felt high. Upper moon 6 felt like such a bigger threat than both upper moons 4+5 that you wouldn’t think they deserve that ranking.
My problem with the show is that every character is a cardboard cutout, that is thinner than a piece of paper. Yknow what would've been interesting to see? Zenitsu not being able to control himself while he's asleep, rather relying on pure instinct, and him having to grow as a person to succeed. Inosuke is great tho ngl
@@PengestAsian I agree that the villains are weaker in this arc, but I think that everything else was stronger except maybe the fights.
Garnt is the only one now who's opinions about anime are worth a damn on this podcast anymore, since he's the only one that actually sort of cares. Joey isn't watching shit unless it's a confirmed masterpiece or he's read the manga before and even then he'll probably need convincing, while Connor has the most basic simpleton mindset about the 2 most popular shows of the season and if it's not pure high octane action every episode, he calls it boring and mid.
There was a time where I wished these 3 would talk about anime more on the podcast, but with takes like these, how little they care about story and how quickly they call a show mid/boring without giving a logical justification why, it just becomes annoying to listen to them. (Again with the exception of Garnt since he at least trys to explain his opinions beyond "le show bad because I bored").
Sticking to Gigguks videos on seasonal anime is actually worthy a listen, compared to this vague complaining about "this show boring because I said so" aint it.
I agree with him saying Ds is actually mid but his other takes are very questionable
I mean, they're called "Trash Taste" for that reason right? Just because they're one of the most popular Japan/weeb related content creator in YT right now, doesnt mean their opinion truly represent the majority of its fanbase.
Garnt is probably the only one that has reasonable opinion towards anime.... Joey is kind of undeserved of his "AnimeMan" title anymore.. he no longer watch a new animes (except very select few) His anime taste persona stucks behind 3-4 years ago, and bcs of that his opinion is kind of outdated and not relevant to this day and age animes.
@@farhanfarr8368 Yes and no. The way I interpret it, the title of the podcast is kinda like self-deprecating humor, kinda "We don't always agree with each other and call each other's tastes trash", but also kinda "Whatever we say, people will say we have trash taste", which, let's be real, it's gong to be true for anybody; that's just how the anime community is (and it's certainly not limited to this community either).
That being said, there was also this expectation that, at least because of the presence of Garnt and Joey (Connor was not as well-known as today back then), we would get a podcast where three anime fans discuss anime and have interesting discussions around it, because both Garnt and Joey were known for their anime content. And in some cases, we did have good discussions, but it's definitely become more and more questionable, especially as Joey started caring less and less. Which is disappointing for the people who watched from day 1 and already knew at least Garnt and Joey (in my case, I had even watched some of Connor's stuff, but I only realized how much of a monkey brain he is because of this podcast).
At this point, it's clear people watch Trash Taste for their personalities and discussions about other random stuff instead of their opinion about anime.
Connor only knows his fucking Jojo that's it. He is no real anime Fan.
@@Mercure250 well said. I completely agree
Connor referencing Terrence House, mentioning the unfortunate suicide of Hana Kimura who was on Terrance House, completely ignoring that she committed suicide due to the cyberbullying that the producers DID NOTHING TO FIX DESPITE THE BACKLASH SHE RECIEVED, and Oshi no Ko was referencing that because it happens so often in Japanese society (Miura Haruma, who was an A-List actor committed $uicide in 2021 due to depression and cyberbullying) shows I will never take him seriously with any form of opinion he has.
I mean, he's right. He does have a monke brain. An entertaining piece of art can envoke philosophical forms of thought Connor. It doesn't have to always be "turn your brain off; see shapes and colours" entertainment. 😒
This is just my observation on the terrace arc in oshi no ko. I am reading the manga and I love the anime. Maybe the reason they speed up that arc was to make the viewers tell that something was off and something will happen. Was the pacing a bit fast? Yes. Did they convey the point? To me also yes.
Coonor has the right idea about Oshi no Ko. That show went from 100 to ZERO once the cyber-bullying arc hit. I dropped the show at that point. You guys know the Tyler the Creator quote? It fits perfectly. The first episode was simply too big and it left me with the impression this would be fast-paced revenge story; the slow-burn slice of life stuff is okay, but obviously has ups and downs.
I recently watched Demon Slayer. Only worthwhile/"must watch" parts are the Rengoku and Tengen fights.
I might give Hell's Kitchen a chance hahaha I mean Hell's Paradise.
I like how the title talks about demon slayer and the comments arw all focused on Connor's disinterest in oshi no ko
Even if demon slayer is only eleveated because of the animation, it is still elevated to something that might be worth watching now, whereas it might not have been if it were adapted with worse animation.
But that doesnt change the fact that we are not in that timeline. It WAS animated by ufotable and it WAS elevated to something great. Getting into nuances like "only good because of the animation" might be true, but I dont think it matters if you enjoy what you're seeing.
Yeah, bad is enjoying what you see for only 1/10 of the anime doesn't justify anything, doesn't make it better and most definitely doesn't elevate the anime. The thing is the animation only goes well with epic fights...there are none in the latest season tbh.
@@loaderboter3026 "doesn't justify anything"
That, my friend, is an opinion. For some people it might be worth it. I agree that this season was definitely not the best, but I would 100% sit through flashback after flashback if it ended with an episode 19, or the last fight from the entertainment district arc.
If it's not worth it for you, then that's cool.
These are the moments that elevate the anime. I was talking about the fight scenes, should have clarified. Mb. I think most people would have known I meant the action though lol.
@@loaderboter3026yeah sure a manga that survived the brutal axing of Shonen Jump is totally a 1/10. I remember when people were mad when it wasn’t cancelled over other series. Oh wait, no one ever did, but now anime onlys come in and shit on Demon Slayer because the manga isn’t as good as Berserk.
Man as a fan of media, not necessarily just Anime, this argument is so bonkers to me. It's like saying "that movie/show was boring as hell with a generic mid story but it was shot/edited well so it's not mid"
Which I guess you can hold that opinion but those kinds of shows and movies are never talked about. Like a polished turd is still a turd my guy.
@@syra2323 "shot/edited well"
There we go. You just admitted that something about it was done well. Sometimes, that's all people need. A good chunk of people (arguably most but I don't make assumptions) watch shows to be entertained. You can't deny that people are entertained by the show. That should be all it takes.
I'll never understand the side of people who try to "prove" beyond some reasonable doubt that a show is bad by some objective metric. If it's entertaining, watch it. If not, don't. I was just expressing why people find value in watching it.
I'm really mostly confused about what you're trying to say. Are you trying to get me to admit that the show is a polished turd? Even if I said yes, what changes? I'm still entertained. And so are many others. I can't control what I find entertaining. I just do or don't.
Sometimes, one amazing aspect about a story is all it takes to push the media subconsciously into the realm of, "enjoyable".
People will not be more or less entertained with a show because of some mathematical proof that "proves" the show is trash.
You're free to make the opinion ofc, I just don't see your goal with this statement. What are you trying to change?
I've completed the hella paradise manga like years ago so my memory might not be that good anymore but all i remember is thinking that it was mid and being really disappointed SPOILER
I dont remember if it happened 2 or 3 times but it definitely happened more than one time a fake out death and i think it happened on the same character as well (ponytail ninja girl) so when it happened a second time and they were having a sad dialogue and sad scene and they were leaving her behind bcs she got stabbed or something i just laughed cuz i knew she would not die and come back and she did! so all the tension was lost bcs i knew at that point that the main cast would not die and they would all have a happy ending and my prediction was spot on because no one died and they all had a happy ending and also the main villains suck (flower people) they have ONE characteristic assigned to them (like one is smart one is cocky etc) and thats all there is to them there is no depth they just have one fight and then they die (the main characters ALWAYS win) i like the plot twist that the main flower person is an old women who became evil bcs her husband died??? (i dont remember exactly) and the manga art is overrated its not that good like the fans claim it to be like its not bad either but its just mid out of jjk and csm its the worst one by far
Please talk about Heavenly Delusion more! Definitely the best new anime this year and i think it deserves soooo much more notoriety!
Garnt saying Hells Paradise was "Turn your Brain off anime" lost me. The whole premise was the mystery of the Island and Tao😭😭
Bruh💀😭
On the contrary, I completely agree with Garnt. At the surface level the show is alright, but beyond that the show/adaptation has been pretty subpar. Which is surprising from a studio like MAPPA.
Okay, but for the first 2/3 of the show the only mystery was the random monsters and the elixir of life. There’s nothing really interesting about the island’s lore until they met Mei
@@linkaj12 Right, even then, they explain the entire "mystery" in episode 11 about how it works, where it comes from, and how to use it to kill the Tensen. And suddenly they all power scale immediately and start killing these "thousand-year-old masters of Tao" like, okay, I guess. The show is just okay and not as top tier as people keeping trying to say it is.
Until none of that mystery and tao led to anything complex.Tao is just Chi and the mystery of the island is turning visitors into the elixir. Perhaps more will come out of that, yet I doubt it. Stil though I will keep watching.
Connor needs to rethink MHA vs. Demon Slayer 👀. Persoanlly MHA has remained consistent for these past couple years but after DS S3 im curious to see if it can somehow surpass the hype and excitemnt of The Red light district arc.
i'd say demon slayer s3 was slower than usual partly because they didnt want to include the hashira training arc instead give it whole season which is a bit weird since it doesnt really last that long in the manga. If they did included it however the pacing would've been much faster and stick up or maybe surpass s2
Was it a bit slow? Sure. But their criticism basically boils down to "Stop trying to tell a story and give me only action.".
I was surprised the vase demon didn't reveal it's head wasn't "really" cut
I still like demon slayer. I like it’s OP and how it’s silly at some points sprinkled in when dealing with something way serious. I haven’t seen Oshi no Ko, but I see it’s very divided on whether it’s good or mid in the comments.
Ah yes, Connor really trying to win the worst take and biggest clown again for next years awards
WEEBS GOT MAD
Bro this video was posted 9hrs ago but when was it recorded.
The whole thing with the uno reverse card thing with the demons made me realize that literally every single one of the moons did the same thing
When Connor has a opinion: 😐
Before season 3 I never realized how much of a hate on people have for Demon Slayer lol
Imo it not as worse as when Mugen Train came out, where the haters even harassing the author and the staff on internet.
Every human have right to hate mid stories
Season two was peak which silencd the haters, it's just that season 3 was a step down that brought all the haters back. They they'll be real quiet the final arc releases

Connor stops talking about Oshi No Ko at 7:33 , most of us already know his take and that he wasn't paying attention, and he acknowledged it on his stream. Essentially, he was so bored that he missed all the crucial details that would've made the Terrace House thing less cringe and dumb (for him at least)
Generally speaking, I do broadly agree with what they've said about this newest Demon Slayer season. I understand the frustrations & the annoyances. However, what I will say is that Mitsuri Kanroji's screentime & that moment with Nezuko near the end of the season were the highlights. Everything else was meh.
Mitsuri was the GOAT, but fuck Nezuko. I knew author don't have balls to kill her, but they tried to scare us anyway.
I was such a big fan after season 2 but now I despise all of the show after this disaster.
Bro aqua wasnt actually stalking the girl, the streamer girl told me that she was out to buy something and that she was late so she asked him if he could find her, btw I love Aqua hes the best in oshi no ko lol
After watching Infernal Paradise, I wrote my first review on Myanimelist and went to read the manga. I think that says a lot.
>When the visual medium has good visuals
Demon slayer S3 was just S2 all over again but everything worse.
Connor just doesn’t like anything how is Oshi no Ko cringe, like what
Yeah i remember that Connor also did not like blue lock because that they did not die when they lost a game or somthing like that💀
@@Litgaming776 yea I remember that
@@ramenx666 common Connor L
I mean all of his takes are shit. But that makes him more entertaining
Wait, how late do they upload these? It sounds like they're still in the middle of last anime season.
I havent watched enough but I’m wondering what Connor thinks of projects like Psycho Pass
Season 1 and 2, People: only fights, no plot, carried by animation bal bla
Season 3 (actually focuses on plot a lil bit), People: Where are the fight?? BORING
The problem with Demon Slayer is that its plot isn't good, so by focusing on its plot only makes things worse.
@@yannispirou101 so why do yall complain when there is only animation to enjoy to. Dont watch ds for plot then tf
@@blanche42 I mean, people want to watch something with good plot, but Demon Slayer doesn't have a good plot for them, that's all.
@@yannispirou101 eh the plot is okay. its pretty basic and straightforward but its mostly character driven with fights. The world isnt even that fleshed out. For what it is, its a good series and it didnt overstay its welcome like for example jjk, i can respect that. s3 just had a very mid pacing imo and i never liked this arc anyway.
@@fluffy_magnus I thought the story of Demon Slayer was okay up until Entertaining District Arc, but Swordsmith Village Arc was very poorly written imo and it made the story much worse. I still don't really care about the story tho, which is why I enjoy watching the series despite the story, but I feel like everytime the series tries to focus on the story and characters like S3 did, it makes it less enjoyable to watch. S1 had the same problem tbh, but I liked the action more in there. S2 was fantastic tho cuz it focused purely on the action.
Nah bro Connor's Oshi no ko take is mind boggling
but being reborn as an underage idol's talking genius baby is not mind-boggling
3 Anime I really enjoyed watching this year are Heavenly Delusion, Hell's Paradise and Dorohedoro.
Hey do you guy have anything for chainsaw man is it going to get a season 2 or no I just want answers man
Take it with a grain of salt , but multiple leakers on twitter are saying that it will have both a movie and a season 2.
It's just a matter of "when" it's going to get one not "if" so don't worry. It's just gonna take years to make cause like many fans i care abt their animators.
Oh ok think man
People just made more of it than it actually is. Its also full of bad and annoying jokes.
Exactly, this is why I stopped watching it after the first movie. Can't stand the characters.
@@Astro_retired I stopped watching before finishing season 1.
@@Astro_retiredThat's when I stopped, too. What's there to say about DS anyway? Basically, nothing.
@@knoblauchscharfkeinmaiskei4834 I wish I were you...
@@officialnoonon fr
Swordsmith village couldnt be good even with ufotable budget, its pretty easily worst arc in the whole manga, pacing is bad, demon arent interesting, fights are really boring and those random power up moments are stupid, wont even mention all those flashbacks in the worst possible time, i love demon slayer btw. just so u guys dont think im hater, but this is just lowest point of the story for me, fortunately we are going into final arc, theres atleast some cool parts.
I respect them for just openly give their opinions but sometimes they really show why they are called trash taste even if its meant sarcastically
"O they have just covered Japanese history" dropped me
Connor’s not wrong about Demon Slayer. Going forward from the manga, there’s really only two hype fights left and the rest is mid
nah what? The infinity castle and sunrise countdown are gonna be hype af
Considering what they did for the gyotaro fight I’m sure they will make many fights more epic
Tbf knowing Ufotable, they’re most likely gonna elevate those fights to the max.
Only the kokushibo and akaza fight is left
Muzan? The new upper six.. come on bruh theres some dank fights left
Connor is so wrong about Oshi no Ko.
Fr he didn't even understand what was really happening in Akane's arc there
@@MrBlorp-sf9ye Its such a surface level analysis from what's happening. She didn't "rid her mental illness" because of camera tricks. Sure, it helped with the PR side, but it was everyone around her that kept her alive.
Yeah atleast Joey and Garnt get the show and the message
@@Litgaming776 not really if they couldnt correct him, Garnt folded as soon as Connor pushed that aqua was stalking Akane when he wasnt
@@sdbzfan1 they defended the show bet yea agree with you Garnt could have said atleast why Aqua followed Akane
Trash Taste living up to its name. Gotta love the foresight.
DS the big demon showed up at eps. 4. The numerous flashback did kinda made it seem slow.
I mean is it now popular to hate Demon Slayer?Not my first choice by far but it is also far from sleeper anime.People nowadays loves to hate popular things..
It's fine to hate something but people should think first on why they are hating it before saying something about it. Trash Taste is becoming quite more cringy recently especially CDawgVA
Dang you think that of oshi no ko? Alright...
Monke really needs that subway surfers clip besides the anime so he can pay attention lol,if not he just will make more and more bad takes
I don´t think Demon Slayer as become a "sleeping" anime. What happens is it just fell off of its highest peak. It always happens with trendy anime, where they get very highly anticipated and then slowly not talked as much in the begining months or years. Don´t get me wrong, it still has millions of fans worldwide, and many are still following the series, is only a small portion who drop for whatever reason.
10:30 I kinda had a similar opinion, I think they should have made a twist where the "evil" twin would have used his brother´s name an passed as him as a way to atone himself. What a missed opportunity.
My main issue with demon slayer was getting impatient and reading the manga and realizing the whole story has been mid the whole time, but it’s glaringly obvious without being carried by the nice animation. People say that the infinity castle arc is great, but they totally fucked the power scaling and some victories are cheap AF and the whole thing is very rushed. Don’t get me started on the Muzan fight.
“Plot” is like if the White Invasion of Bleach was an entire series. Individual fight -> Tragic Backstory midway through -> character death.
I don't get this whole story thing with demon slayer because it wasn't a deep story to begin with, it's your normal shouan with good animation that just happened to get popular I see no reason to hate
@@alkji5606 FYI, I’m going to talk about the complete series, so if you haven’t read the manga you might find out things you don’t want to find out.
The animation is stellar and I very much enjoyed the first 3 seasons. Reading the manga kind of took off the rose colored glasses, as it wasn’t carried by animation. The power scaling in the later arcs is massively fucked, so much so that there needs to be convenient plot devices to allow the protagonists to win.
Also, with that power scaling, it’s suuuuper convenient that certain demon slayers met certain demons at certain times, or else they’d be decimated. If Douma went to the Swordmaster Village, he’d decimate everyone.
Probably my biggest issues were with the Muzan, Akasa, and Douma fights because of how cheap the defeats were. They had to nerf the fuck out of Muzan to even have the ghost of a chance.
I do want to see the whole thing animated and see how things shape out, especially the Kukoshibo fight.
@@alkji5606I think the start of Demon Slayer was interesting, setting up good motivation, as well as the whole cinematic boulder scene which was cool. Then episode 18 was sick, just hitting the right beats all the way. Then end of Mugen Train. Season 2. And then everything else is just whatever. The problem is that the animation and art distract you from how whatever the show actually is… Realistically it’s depth is very shallow, and it’s writing is very linear and repetitive.
After season 2 ended, I decided to pick up from there with the manga, and immediately realized how much the beautiful animation was used as a crutch. During non-action scenes I was bored and during action scenes my only thought was "I genuinely can't tell what the fuck is happening." Quit halfway through the volume and haven't touched the series since.
What you guys said about Demon Slayer is applicable to the majority of the shounen anime. The overratings are done by either hardcore fans of this genre or those who are new to anime and doesn't know sh¡† about anime
Idk my take from this is their monkey brains just block out al the story and then they're like "Where all the action hurr durr".
Head chopping not working on the top demons imo makes perfect sense. We haven't seen any demons that seem weak, but the "strongest" ones realized their biggest weakness is well known by any slayers.
It's interesting to me though that people will watch a show where they aren't into the characters lol. I've enjoyed all of the character stuff in Demon Slayer. One of my favorite scenes is seeing the serenity of Tanjiro's mind in Mugen Train
I’m someone who has read all of the manga for demon slayer and will tell you that there are maybe 3 fights in the next 2 seasons that I’m even looking forward to being animated. I completely understand why people like watching demon slayer because it has BEAUTIFUL animation and incredible OST’s, intros and ending. Where I feel demon slayer falters is in its writing, it’s just boring to me compared to other highly praised Shonen animanga. I am completely skipping season 3 because of how boring it was to read, I might watch the main fights on TH-cam though.
Tanjiro's dream world sequence was one of the most powerful emotional gut-punches of that whole arc. Everyone talks about the Akaza and Rengoku fight but Tanjiro's dreams highlight the best parts of his character. He chooses to fight and struggle within the real world instead of sitting back and enjoying his time with his dead family.
I somewhat agree wih Connor on Oshi No Ko? It has good plotline but its execution overall (both anime and manga) sometimes come out as cringe.
Lol I agree, I have problems with the protag, but as the show progressed, he became a bit intriguing, so is the setting. And the fights are effin great because Mappa of course.
It became so good that Im flabbergasted that there's only 12 episodes of it for now.
If garnt hates where they cut the head off and there’s an uno reverse he’s gonna hate Akaza
And Kokoshibo lol
@@novelphantasm376 oh yeah.
As someone who read the manga of demon slayer, when this arc was the lowest of the arcs and when it got announced I was just going to watch clips of it cause I know UFOTable would hit out of the park. The reason for me isn't the flashback, because usually DS does a really good job, it was the characters, specifically the hashiras and demons of the arc. Garnt is ON point of some of my thoughts on them. Personally to me they're very boring both personality, power, and backstory even at the end of the series. Like I tell my friends and family, DS is a 7/10 series, it's still great, but there too many times you get the worst aspect of it, UFOTable really saved it imho.
Ufotable actually butchered the pacing this season
@@edir4265 can't disagree with that
I went out of my way to read all the manga without watching the anime so that I can examine the story at its core without all the hype visual eye candy that UFO gives viewers. It went from mid to low. Real low, I feel like Gotouge could’ve brought it back up though. Given all the flashbacks and backstories we got from the characters later on, but they probably ended it so quick because the hype that Demon Slayer got was so overwhelming. I mean think about it, the mangaka prefers to stay anonymous. They probably didn’t anticipate their series to get the attention that it got. If my memory is correct, I even remember reading one of their notes in one of the volumes that they were overwhelmed by the hype and even drew themselves like a fatigued alligator with spiral eyes lol🐊 😵💫
Sad dead mount death play didn't get a mentioned 😔
Oshi no Ko best anime of the season by far in my oppinion.
Vinland saga is better.
@@Sephirothkingdom782 actually forgot about that one. As a manga reader my experience of consuming the anime is a bit diffrent but i can def see it being top 1 of the season. Its also impossible to compare them tbh but oshi no ko left a greater mark for me personaly
Is a show really worth watching if you feel like you're just waiting for the big hype moment the whole time?
Isnt that all shonen? Waiting for the next transformation in dragon ball, the next big fight in naruto, etc. That isnt really a bad thing of course you watch shonen hoping to see hype fights and moments, shonen lives off that
I love how you just went against 100s of years of perfecting the hero's journey lmao.
@@ohav3893not really, that's just a generic mid shonen, there are many shonens that do not require big hype moments to make the viewers enjoy, like hxh, haikyuu, even fmab had great interactions, a great shonen doesn't need those big moments lol
@@ohav3893 true, but if the build up to the big moments is so dull that you get comments like, "this is so boring when is something going to happen!" then the show isn't working IMO
Fucking exactly and you didn't even have to use many words at all
connor once again living up to the podcast's name
Hells paradise also portays its themes in a very intelligent way, its themes are cruelty love and forgiveness and death and the cycle of life and it’s portrayed in a very beautiful way with Buddhist deities and architecture, and even when people die their essence is observed into the wild life, and this theme of made very clear from the start of hells paradise, I think it is an ingenious way to portray your theme through art and symbolism and I think hells paradise is lowkey a master at that
Demon Slayer rocked this past season ya'll nuts.
Guess I should seek a shrink then. Thanks for notifying me.
Naah Demon Slayer is mid... And I've read the manga, there's nothing exciting
@@arpanmahapatra342infinity castle is literally the best arc lol
@@Sephirothkingdom782 In Demon Slayer it might be the best arc, but as an anime it's pretty generic, all of the DS arcs follow the same blueprint - Tanjiro and squad teams up with a Hashira, they encounter a demon, demon almost kills all of them, we see flashback of the hashira, Tanjiro and Hashira gets motivated, they slice the demons neck, they win, next arc
Lol
@@arpanmahapatra342 literally all of that is untrue for infinity castle. Tanjiro only teams up with Giyuu, literally like 70% of the cast dies, there are hardly any flashbacks and the only ones with akaza and kokushibo are both well done.
I'm offended that Connor shitted on Oshi No Ko. No he didn't stalk Akane, he and Mem-ちよ went searching for Akane since there was a tycoon or something, also he's obviously very smart BECAUSE he's a doctor. He doesn't only know stuff about being a doctor, but also other things. Also, Aqua didn't make a video showing that Akane and Yuki were still friends, showing the clips of the girls and the clip when Akane scratched Yuki and other stuff for the video wasn't for "Akane to be relieved from depression" It was clearly for Akane's reputation. Also WHY IS AQUA Annoying??? He is such a good character so I don't understand why they don't like him, he's not weird, Connor clearly didn't pay attension when he was watching ONK
Connor has monkey brain, garnt watches stuff at 1.5 times speed and joey foesnt watch anime much anymore
Its pretty clear a show that has info couple minuted wasnt the best choice to go "its kinda dumb and doesnt make much sense" to, its so damn dense with info you have to pay attention its not a casual binge watch
Yeah Connor has a monkey brain
@@sdbzfan1Although Joey and Garnt read the manga and Garnt is up to date with It. Garnt is just bad defending something 😂
@@pauloazuela8488when did he said that he was up to date?
How does he know where she lives? He stalked her.
Why are we talking about Oshi No Ko when the title says Demon Slayer?
Not surprising at all, coming from the guy who said that Eighty Six was just a show about "racism bad"
The comments section has been fun to read. Thx you Connor. Love your takes
I was originally going to say "post the oshi no ko clip cowards" but saw the comments and i guess this is the clip. Even your own editor knew how shitty of a take it was that they tittle it "demon slayer boring lol" to try and help Connor save some face. I was originally going to tackle his main points to prove how wrong Connor is but theres no point because the other comments are already doing that and the other main point is Connor's inability to pay attention to something and just make shit up.
So what i will complain about is how easy Joey and Garnt are to roll over to just please Connor even when Garnt has proof to show that he is in the wrong, Joey doesn't give a fuck so he doesn't care, Garnt is a little reluctant but let it slide anyways. What happened to not letting the show be a circle jerk.
My comment in the avatar movie clip still stands.
Never ask Garnt's opinion on food
Never ask Joey's opinion on anime
And never ask Connor's opinion on anything
I'm reminded why this podcast is called Trash Taste.
It would’ve been funnier if he moved the boat and behind it was one of those paddle boats with a duck/swan design
