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.
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
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? 🤣

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 RUclips. 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
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
I love Connor and Meyline’s interactions. She has such a playful personality.
"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
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.
Meilyne and Connor as a team has big "older sis trying to teach her brother how to cheat discreetly" energy.
my favorite anime, the soviet union
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.
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
16:56
"There's Minecraft!"
"Where?"
"Right here."
" *STEVE--* "
watching connor's japanese getting better throughout all these videos is really heartwarming
What I learn from this video: Meilyn is vicious, competitive, likes making silly puns, MVP camera women, and should definitely start her own RUclips 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
"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*
I love how casually Meilyne says "bribe the shopkeepers"
Watching Garnt squat is like watching someone draw a heretical amount of cards in UNO.
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?
"you cant be in here because youre such a snack" good one meilyn, very smooth
Time stamp pls?
@@FreeConqueror 19:37
@@user-zw4ll9hv4h thanks buddy
Hi yami
Meilyne is so helpful..she even called Connor a snack😭
Time stamp ?
19:37 lol haha
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! >
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?
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
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
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
“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
Connor and Meilyne ultimate camera woman and presenter duo.
Agreed, she is so damn funny. Wish she collabed more in these videos.
I think these type of videos are my favorite! I’m so glad you did another one!
i was waiting for them to do this again, really enjoyed it first time around
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
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
In Amiami when they were pulling challenges there was a bunch of stuff from Shiroi Suna no Aquatope! I love that series so much
I think I need a friend like Connor…I need a reason to spend this much on figures
"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.....
Honestly, this video confirms what we all knew. Meilyne is queen.
😂
Yeah, I really like Meilyne 😁
I really hope you make more of these videos. They're a lot of fun and hilarious!
Thanks for showcasing a lot of figurines! I'll have to keep this in mind, especially when getting figurines for my siblings.
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 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
@@user-jn7rz9ew2l :|
Felt.
28:09 You just broke my heart :'c
Yeah I was like “Dude!”.
These challenges are fun to watch! I'm about to go watch the other boys' videos and round it out with the TT episode. Guess I'm gonna be up for a while...but I'm not mad. :D
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
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.
I really miss this series. Was my best time when I used to watch the poll live on their twitch channel. wish they'd bring this back. ♥
these vids are all that is keeping me alive after i spent 2 years of my life grinding learning japanese for the country to shut down as soon as I was ready to go and now itsbeen 2 years help
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
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
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.
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
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
Poor Garnt, he took the challenge like a champ. he's great
This is cool I live in Japan for school and went here yesterday kinda surreal to see it on youtube
love your viewpoint great commentary
"Bribe the shopkeeper"
Joey: * Writes that down *
(Also BNA figure? Jealous!)
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.
20:52 Not even Dead Sea is not so salty than Connor at this moment🤣
This is pure nostalgia for me man I starting watching trash taste because of when y’all did this on episode 4
20:02 My boi stanning the Index franchise. *Hell YEAH!*
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
love the videos keep it up man!!
Connor picking Arknights figurine for the anime is such a good move and makes me happy cus it reminded me that AK is getting an anime
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!
Love how they tweeted AND uploaded at the same time.
The power of the big 3 is unified.
Respect for connor for actually wiring "tried" in the title instead of straight up lying saying he spent 10k like the other 2.
Man, been waiting for this for a long time
YESS!! I loved the first video, I'm so excited to see another one!
My apartment is much too cramped for so many figures, so I love these videos as I can live vicariously through you.
so hype for this. Part 1 was amazing and ive rewatched it so many times. My way of coping with my Japan trip getting canceled when covid struck.
I looked through garnt and joeys videos, and I realized how smooth the camera moves on your video its crazy
Hi Conner your version of events is the best. Havent watched the podcast yet, I hope you won.
I love videos like these where there are multiple parts, gives me something to watch during work.
10:11 Connor's reaction when he heard that there was a monkey, LOL
19:38 haha Meilyn's husband goes brrrr
This was my wife and I favorite episode from back in the day. Crazy to think how much time has passed and how much you've all changed. Awesome!!!
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
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.
CONNOR! I HAVENT WATCHED ONE OF YOUR VIDEOS IN MONTHS IVE JUST BEEN OFF OF RUclips FOR AGES AND IDK Y BUT I MISSED WATCHING YOU SOOOO MUCH!
quite fun this 4 part video thingee
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
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).
This is the best Christmas gift I could ask for
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.
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!
Lowkey want this to be a series. I loved both if these videos so far lol the trash taste was 🔥 too
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!
Connor, any chance you would do a "Figure buying guide" video? I have a trip planned to Japan in the somewhat near future and plan on buying a few figures and was wondering if there was anything I need to look out for when doing so.
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 😭
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 .
Watching all three videos at the same time, pausing in every challenge just to see everything connected XD
19:35 - I'm getting a couple of those too. I wasn't aware they were that cool. I play as often as I can on my older PC.
So strange feeling so happy while watching the boys just being themselves
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. 🤣😅
2:28 bro he immediately finds the one figure I've been looking for for so damn long. I've seen every single one but that Han, and I've got the Leia it goes with. FML.
28:00 I see videos about anime shopping on second-hand stores and it makes me think that these stores might benefit from a software like what they have in the Target app (in the US). Basically, aside from looking up if they have an item both in-stock at a store AND the location within the store if you are already there. Could help in looking for the best price for figure-hunters or other dedicated shoppers
This was my favorite episode of trash taste when they did this before, I'm so glad they're doing it again
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!
Lmao "because you're such a snack" damn she has game
At 9:00 Connor looks like a kid trying to convince his mom to buy him something XD
