01:25:29 Share

- I really want you guys to smell my finger. - No, I'm not smelling your finger. - Please, please. - No. - Get that shit away from me. - Put your nose in it. - What's up you salty salmon slices? Welcome back to another episode of the Trash Taste Podcast. - I'm sorry, what? - Yeah, you heard me. - What was that? Why'd you come up with that? - That's gonna be, every time I host an episode, that's gonna be my thing. - All right. - That's gonna be the new intro. - That's a thing now? - Yeah.

and we didn't discuss this beforehand. - I was thinking of that shit for like two weeks. I'm like, this is gonna- - That's the best you came up with? - Two weeks? - Hey man, give me some time, all right? I'm working on it. - All right. - Well, welcome to the Trash Taste podcast, the show where we talk trash about our tastes in anime. I'm your host for today, Joey, and joined as always is Garnt and Connor. - Yo. - Yo. - So this episode is, I guess the first special episode? - Yeah, yeah.

- Spinoff episode. - If you're being linked from our main channel videos, hello, welcome to the podcast. But if you haven't seen our main channel videos, do we wanna explain what we did? - Do you wanna go ahead? - Oh yeah, sure. So basically on our main channel, we decided to do like a little fun challenge where as you can see, our backdrop is a little,

- This is a big table. - This is a big table that has a lot of potential space to be filled up with some weeby shit. So what we decided to do is we decided to venture out into the weeb land itself, Akihabara in Tokyo, which is like known as like,

- Yes, it is. - And we decided to challenge ourselves to see how many figurines or I guess anime merch we can buy with a $500 budget or about 50,000 yen if you convert it to yen. And just instead of just going out and making it like a vlog kind of thing, we decided to turn it into a challenge where we fight each other. - Let's make it fun. - Let's make it challenging and let's make

Let's put some stakes on this. - Let's make it a relaxing experience of shopping into stressful hell where you buy shit you don't want to meet a dumb set of criteria. - Out of the money in our pocket. - Yeah, exactly right. - So essentially we gave ourselves a number of challenges. We had some small challenges that we did in the four anime stores that we went to in our main channel videos. Again, if you want to check it out,

- You'll miss a lot of context if you don't watch that video, but if you haven't seen it and you refuse to for some reason, you'll still be fine to watch this podcast. - So basically we all have scores already from challenges that we went to, that we did in each store, which is probably on screen right now. You'd know that if you watched our videos, but here are all our scores. - But it's not the final score like any good Mario party game, right? It doesn't matter how many stars you end up with. It's all about the final count.

It's all about the bonus stars. And this episode is essentially where we go over the bonus stars as well as show each other what we got because right now we don't know what the fuck each other got. - No. - We maybe got like a few glimpses as we like passed each other passive aggressively in each of the stores. But right now we have no idea what the other person bought. So that's what we're gonna find out today.

So we have a bunch of overarching challenges, right? - Yes. So we have some that are like pretty obvious, like who spent the most on a single figurine? What was else? Who bought a figure from the most popular series, which you lose a point if that's the case. - Normie Award. - Normie Award. We'll go over every challenge at the end after we've finished showing everyone what we've bought. But for now, I just wanted to ask you guys, we just filmed it yesterday. - Yeah. - How did you guys,

- I mean, I found it super fun. That came out, like I haven't started editing the video yet as I'm recording this episode, but I can already tell that video is gonna be so fucking fun to watch. - I feel like it's just fun. Like that's like the only way to, you can see I'm having fun in it.

I mean, he's like a kid in a candy store, right? Like we always go to these. - It's very expensive. - Exactly. We always go to these stores and being able to like film in there with permission, we wanted to do it professionally as well. - We didn't Logan Paul this year. We got permission because we respect

- We respect. - Yeah, we got all the promotion from the stores and it's just great 'cause you kind of just got to let loose in the store. I mean, some of the stores there were people in there, so I was still trying to be respectful, but like anime, there was no one else in that store, it was just for us. - We got in like before the store even opened. - When we left the store, there was like a massive queue. - Of people trying to get in. - Yeah, trying to get in. - I was like, oh, I feel kind of bad right now. - So bad. - Then we just come out just like with all our crap and just being like, yeah, you guys have to leave.

- Look at these peasants. - But yeah, like a lot of the stores were like very happy to have us. I mean like AmiAmi made us like sign that little thing and like take a photo. - If you ever go to AmiAmi in Akihabara, look out for our little plaque.

- Yeah, we have a trash taste like plaque. - Are they gonna hang that up? - I assume so. - Yeah, they should. - I hope so. I really hope so. But like, no, but all of the stores were super freaking cool. They're very, very supportive. So first of all, big shout out to all the stores that did give us permission to film there. But yeah, without further ado, I think we should go over what we bought in each store and judge

our as the name suggests, Trash Taste on figurines and other anime merch. - So let's just jump right into it. - Before we jump right into it. - I wanna jump right into it. - I just can't wait to jump right into it. - Oh my God. Let's just hold off on the jumping for a second. I want to discuss, so did you guys have any strategy going into this game or into this challenge even? - I said I did in my main channel video, but in retrospect, I didn't.

- If I win, it was all planned. If I lose, I was just having a fun time with the boys. I think that's okay. To be 100% honest, I like had some idea, but I think my strategy was just see what you guys are doing. 'Cause if you guys are trying to go for all the challenges and I could see you guys are paying attention. Like, okay, I was gonna, but if I knew that, 'cause I could tell some of you, some of you,

weren't paying as much attention to the challenges as others. - The only challenge that I paid in mind to was the only one that I remembered, which was the whoever gets closest to $500. - Which is worth two points. - Yeah, which is worth two points. So I'm like, I have to prioritize that because that two points

- Two points is big, but like I remember because I couldn't even remember all the challenges that we agreed on. So I went into the day being like, okay, this one's an obvious challenge. This one's an obvious challenge. As I went into more stores, I was like, I am not keeping track of where the fuck I'm going. - I am running out of money. I don't know what's happening. - When I was in animate, I'm like, okay, I'm gonna do this in this store. I'm gonna do this in that store. And then I hit the second store. I'm like, what the fuck am I doing? - I was so short-sighted on like the challenges that I had to do.

in that store. - Yeah, yeah, yeah. - And I'm just like, fuck the other challenges. I need to get this. - To put it in perspective, we got two challenges for every store as you probably saw in the video. So which is the total of eight points that we could get. There's 10, 11 points up for grabs in the overarching challenges. - Yes, yeah.

I mean, if you do really well on the overarching challenges, it might not fucking matter. - Yeah, exactly. And like, we're already close. - Yeah. - Yeah. - Maybe like one or two points. - Eight, seven, six. - Yeah. - So that's a two point discrepancy. - So right now I might be losing, but like any good Mario party game, I can always come back right at the end. - Should we just jump right into it? - Let's jump right into it. - Are we starting with AmiAmi? Oh no, no, sorry.

- We started with Animate. - I didn't buy much in this store. It was the first one. I didn't want to pull the trigger. - Okay, so here's the thing about Animate. I didn't know how much I should buy. - Are we just revealing right now or what do we do? - I mean, who wants to go first? I mean, okay. Can I go first? - You're the host. - Okay, I'll go first because I only bought one thing at Animate. - Oh, okay. - So one of my challenges was to get a "Made in Abyss" figurine. Couldn't find it. Not just in Animate, any of the stores. I couldn't find it.

So I lost the point for that one. But I figured, you know what? I'll get something like kind of cool and kind of niche. So I got...

Hyakkimaru from Dororo. - Oh, damn. - I didn't even know they made figure. - I know. It's a Nendoroid of Hyakkimaru. And I mean, Dororo was so fucking awesome. I love me my Tezuka Osamu stuff and I love Dororo. And I was like, you know, I like my Nendoroids too. So not bad. - Not bad. - It's really, really cute. I mean, we'll probably figure out the pose of it somehow,

- That's the stressful thing about Nendoroids. You just have to, you gotta pick one pose and that's, it's never good. We all know it's never gonna change from that pose. - They're all so finicky as well. But once you've like nailed it, you're like, hell yeah. - Exactly. - Yeah, so that's the only thing I got at anime. - 'Cause yeah, I got a few things at anime. So it's, I had two challenges, right?

And I think I got fucked over some of the overarching challenges by just animating stuff. - Really? - So let's go ahead. So the first thing, the first challenge was to buy a Deku figure from "Ahiro Academia." So as we all know, one of the overarching challenges was the person who buys a figure from the most popular series gets deducted a point. So there's my Deku figure.

- I was actually getting a bit worried, right? 'Cause there weren't many like figures in- - No, that wasn't animated in general. - It was really varied in anime. - Yeah, so the only thing I could find are Nendoroids. And so my second challenge was to ask a store clerk in Japanese to recommend me a figure. - Okay, yeah. - You had to pull a Sumi-Masu skin. - Wait, what did he recommend you? - He recommended to me

- You've totally lost the game. - I was like, oh my God, you've won. You recommend me the figure from the one series I haven't seen yet. You haven't seen it.

- Oh my God. And two, you've just made me auto lose a point by recommending to me, I checked for the fourth most popular anime series on Mal. So thank you for making me lose a point. - Wait, 'cause I see the price there. That's 48 bucks, right? - Yeah. - How much did you spend on these two?

- This one says 48.88 and this one says- - That was like about 500 and no, 52 bucks. - This one will be a little bit more expensive. - You got done dirty by that man.

- I was like, in the video, I was like, "Oh, thank you very much for recommending me." And inside I'm just like, "I can't believe you've done this." And I bought one more thing which cracked me up, which is an Ishtar plushie. It's fat Ishtar. - Oh, that's kind of cute. - It's kind of cute, I like it. - Oh, from "Fate"? - Yeah, from "Fate". - Wait, what the?

- I think that's a, what is it? It's called Tsum. It's like a giant Tsum Tsum, right? - Yeah, yeah, yeah. - I think that's the thing is all. - That's so cute though. - That is very cute. - Yeah, that's gonna look sick. - So how much did you spend on that anime then overall? - $120. - Jesus, I only spent- - Wait, was this 30 bucks? - Yeah. - Oh my God. - I only spent 48. - Yeah, so I also spent 48 bucks on my-

- Oh, I was looking at that one. - My two challenges were get a female figure and get one from a show that you watched recently. And I watched like a few episodes like two months ago. - Why didn't you get the Nezuko figure? I saw you eyeing the Nezuko figure and I'm like, motherfucker, if I didn't- - Because he doesn't want to lose a point. - Yeah, I didn't want to get the Normie award. And I knew that Demon Slayer is the most Normie, whatever the rankings say. I would have lost the Normie award at heart. You know what I mean?

And plus, you know, I don't want to risk it. And also I thought, you know, it's kind of a cool figure, you know? - Yeah, yeah, yeah, it is. - If we have Nezuko, it makes us look like fake anime fans. - Nah, get the fuck out, man. Nezuko's best Emoto of last year. I mean, I think Garnt has like fulfilled that prophecy with these two. - Literally the boomer of Ani-tube here. Tell me about why Nezuko is, you know- - I've gone like how many episodes and I've not talked about Emotos yet. And you are taking this chance away from me. - Just give us some time. You're like, Garnt's gonna get there.

- I was thinking we just put it in the front for now. We'll just gather them at the front for now. - That was very aggressive. - Okay, for the record, I hate Nendoroids. I think Nendoroids are like stressful purchases. And we have four goddamn Nendoroids. 'Cause you have to post them, right? And the whole best selling point of a Nendoroid, I'm probably never gonna be sponsored by Nendoroid ever.

The whole selling point of an Android is that you can move it. But tell me everyone who owns an Android, when have you changed the pose of an Android? - I've changed it a few times. - Let's lie. - I've never changed it. - He's lying. - I've changed it because I'm sponsored by Goodsmoke. Thanks guys. - It's stressful. And then you got to worry about the box and the little things. - I sometimes like where I'm just like, I look at the little parts and I'm like, I want to change it eventually. And then I do. And I'm like, okay, I'm glad I kept it. - Actually, before we go on,

- Question to you guys, what do you do with a figure box? Do you bin it or do you keep it? - I store it. - Shit man, I ripped that shit open. - No! - Even after living in Japan where the box is like half the value? - Because yeah, the mentality for me is like,

- If I eventually like possibly get like, you know, I'm gonna sell this figure. - Yeah. - No, fuck off. You're not gonna, you're gonna sell this figure. - That's me, that's me. - Like this guy, I'm like, maybe I can sell this Jojo merch. You don't know, fuck.

- You're never gonna sell that. - Okay, okay, okay. But here's the other thing I do, right? What helped me at my last place is that it makes moving house so much easier if you keep the box. - That's true, that's true. - Because I usually, what I do at least with figurines, right, is like I throw out like the plastic mold, but I keep the box. - I don't even do that. - See, I throw out the plastic mold. - It just takes up so much space. - But the thing is, if you chuck out the plastic mold and you flatten the box,

Then when you like move house, you can just open the box up again. Glad wrap it in. - I'm too lazy for that. - And then boom, you save so much time and money and like possibly like the risk of like ruining a figurine mid move. And like that saved me so much trouble when I moved to my current house. So that's why I hold onto it. - Fair enough. - I say it's for repurposing. It's like, it's not.

- Solid purchases though overall. - I think they're gonna look great. - My favorite anime Fullmetal Alchemist. I recommend you guys watch that. - Your favorite character from your favorite anime.

But the next store we went to was A-Stop. - I spent so much money. - Okay, okay. Before we get to A-Stop, what was your guys' strategy with A-Stop? - Okay, A-Stop is probably the store that I go to the most just casually. So I knew I really had to spend time just like looking around because there is so many figurines at A-Stop that I legitimately have

I've never seen anywhere else. Even though they're technically secondhand. So I'm like, okay, I'm gonna aim for those. And I think I got a pretty decent selection. - Because for me, A Stop was the most daunting shop, right? 'Cause, okay, so in my challenge, I had to squat 10 times before entering the store. - That's not a challenge. - That was easy to do. And my second challenge was an auto lose 'cause I had to buy the most expensive figure, which we found out was like a thousand bucks. So I knew I was gonna lose that. So I was like, I was going into A Stop,

just not trying to complete any challenge, but just trying to like buy figures that I like. - Yeah, yeah, yeah. Follow your heart. - Yeah, so I kind of went fucking mental when they stopped.

- I filled up my piece of paper. - No, no, no, no. - Are you serious? - Yeah. - Yeah, same here. Okay, so like, 'cause like with ASOP, there are so many figures and so many display cases that you don't remember which figure you saw where. So my strategy was just, if I see a figure I like, I'm gonna write it down and maybe I'll cross it out later. I fucked myself over so bad doing that because I was just like,

I remember seeing you like halfway through and I had filled up my entire sheet. - You hadn't even had, you didn't even have a piece of paper. - I was still looking for like stuff. - So I was just going, okay, that one, okay, write it down, write it down, write that. And then I got to the end and then I couldn't remember which figure was which. - I heard that. He was like, is it this one? I'm like, I think so.

- Yeah, so it was like basically trying to choose between my children. So I'm like, what the fuck am I crossing out right now? I'm like, I have no fucking clue. - Wow, okay. Because yeah, like for me, like A-Stop, I knew if I wasn't careful at A-Stop, I was gonna go absolutely ham at A-Stop as I usually do just like casually. So I'm like, okay, there are still two stores left. We're not even halfway through this challenge. So I have to like limit myself as much as possible at A-Stop. So I only bought

- Oh, okay. - Oh, okay. - How many did you get? - I can't remember like five, six?

- I mean, you'll see. Do you wanna go first then? - Yeah, I'll go first. - And then me and you can take it in turns, show them one off each. - I decided to like kind of go for like smallish ones. So my two challenges was, the first one was really easy. I had to go up to the store clerk and ask if they had Boku no Pico merch, which they said they didn't, thank God. - Did they know what it was? - Well, the guy was an English speaking staff. So he's like, "Is that the one where the two guys fucking?"

You'll see it in the video. But the other challenge was really easy. It was just pick a figurine that either myself, Garnt or Connor likes. So obviously I went with the one that I liked. - That was bullshit by the way. - Mine's still in glad wrap right here so I gotta unwrap this shit. But I obviously got my goddamn waifu. - Fucking Monogatari. - Of course it is. - Of course it is. - Look, I'm gonna be on this show

casually like all the freaking time. - I fucking, I needed to get my waifu Shinobi. I actually don't even have this one at home. So I guess I'm gonna go for, I'm just gonna go next now because of course I followed my heart as well. - Oh my God, you got Monogatari as well. - Hell yeah. - Hell yeah. - No, my waifu.

So yeah, I knew Joey would get a Shinobu figure 'cause I saw so many boxes that were just purely Shinobu and I'm just like, get that shit out of me. Get that shit out of my face, man. - You might need to like hold it up to the camera 'cause they might have been the same, especially with the boxes in the way actually. - Yeah.

what I tried to do at A-Stop was at the beginning, I just tried to note down as many figures as I could for under 20 bucks. 'Cause I feel like anything over 20 bucks was like kind of risking it in terms of- - I mean, especially if you're buying like seven figurines at A-Stop. - Exactly, exactly.

- So this one's, I don't have this figure yet 'cause it's short hair Senjogahara. - Oh, that's cute. - Dude, I personally find the short hair Senjogahara figurines so much nicer than the long haired ones. - There was so many good Senjogahara figurines. So it like hurts me that I had to buy the cheapest one. - All right boys, you wanna see what I bought then? - Yeah, go for it.

- This is a, I think it was a 900 yen Sword Art Online figure. - You didn't even get like the good Sword Art Online one. - It was the cheapest Sword Art Online figure because you know, if you're gonna buy garbage, why even like,

Why care about which terrible item it is? It was 900 yen, I think. And it was the cheapest sort online figure. - Oh, damn. Okay. - Was this for a challenge? - Yeah. Remember I had to shout, "I fricking love SAO." - While buying an SAO figure. - I will say that that shout wasn't a shout at all. - That was in Japanese culture. That was like full. - That was, okay, okay. - I fricking love SAO. - No, it was louder than that. - It was just like, "I fricking love SAO."

- It was like a gradual building volume. - Let's get this boy out of here. - Okay, the other two though that I bought, I think is super freaking cool because they're two figurines that I personally really wanted, but also it just like really- - Yeah, we're staying over there, Joey? We're just getting the shit out of here.

- I think it goes without saying, don't listen to the audio only of this. It's gonna sound probably horrible. - Hey guys, just opening my box over here. - No, no, no, this is box opening ASMR. - Okay, but let me show you the other two I got, okay? This second one I got is Shonen Jump. - Oh, that's so cool. - Okay, that's pretty fucked up. - That's pretty cool. - Like I'd never seen this before and I'm like, I was like, does this count as a figurine?

- Probably does. - Yeah. - It's a piece of solid. - I mean, I love Shonen Jump and that's gonna look so cool on like the shelf or something like that. - I think if we had a coolest item award, 'cause I didn't know if we could get a coolest item award. - 'Cause we have to all agree. - Yeah. - But I think we can all agree this is one of the coolest figurines. - Yeah. - And the other one I got is also pretty cool. It's Puck from "Berserk."

- Oh, that's cool. - Yeah, look how tiny this guy is. - How much was that? - This is 980 yen. - Oh wow. 'Cause every Berserk figure I saw was so expensive. - Yeah, yeah. - Like there's a few figures in the store that I found like Nanachi, the little Nanachi figure, Nanachi was like 250 bucks. - Oh yeah, no, the Made in Abyss stuff is

so expensive. - Yeah, yeah. - Even if I got that Made in Abyss thing at a stop, I probably still wouldn't have been able to do it 'cause I'm not gonna spend $250 on a Nanachi figure. - Angel Beads. - So I got Yuri from Angel Beads. She was, I can't remember how much, but it was between 10 and 20 bucks. - That's so cute. - There's one figure that I didn't get.

I of course put Sagari down. I of course put Sagari down. And you see in my video, when I'm like trying to figure out which figure was which, and I was like just crossing out figures, the realization when I had crossed out Sagari was just like, my heart fucking sank, man. My heart sank when I was like, oh no, I crossed off Sagari. How could I? Oh my God. Don't look at what I'm unboxing.

- I mean, this is essentially all I bought at a stop. I think I spent, I didn't even spend a hundred dollars at a stop. I think because yeah, I spent 9,940 yen at a stop because this shonen jump one was 5,000 yen. Which is kind of expensive, but not too bad. - I mean, I just try to get tsundere's.

- You got another Ishtar? - Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. - It's a double Ishtar. - I think it's like Meruem, Meruem? - Medudim or something like that. - Yeah, yeah. - It's probably written on the ballpark. - I don't wanna say I bought the single best figure, but what can you say?

- Look at this $30 Mike Wazowski. - That's actually so cool. - That's actually like, okay, no joke. - I actually love that. - That's a good figure. - I actually love that. - That is, no, 'cause I saw Mike Wazowski. - I heard you shouting. - And I was like, Mike, what are you doing here? - So I have, it was a $30 purchase and I just wanted to make you guys laugh, you know?

- Can I see that? - That's a good figure. - I actually love this. - It's well made. - I love this dude. - Let me put this up here. - I love how like the base is the Monsters Inc logo. - Yeah, it's so good. - That's so cool. - I bought it for a troll, but I actually thought it's not bad for 30 bucks. - No, I think our audience can appreciate that. That's so cool. I kind of want it. I love that. - Da da da da da.

- That's Toy Story, right? - No, no, that's what's happening. - Do you have any more figures, Connor? - Oh, I have plenty of more figures. - I mean, I'm all out, so I'm just gonna watch you guys. - You keep talking. - Hell yeah! Megumin, my waifu! - She was a cheap, I think she was like 19 bucks.

- Megumin, some Megumin figurines. - It's a pretty big figure. Like the form factor of this box is pretty deceiving. - That's one thing I've noticed about Megumin figurines. Some of them are like way cheaper than what they should be. - It's hard to tell the difference between an $80 Megumin figure and a $20 Megumin figure. - 'Cause like, you know, with some of the popular characters, there's like so many different prices. - Yeah, yeah. - With,

of some of the popular characters. 'Cause I think I was about to buy, I was gonna buy "Darkness" as well. 'Cause I thought Joey was gonna buy "Megaman." - I thought about it, but I'm like, I don't need to. And I reckon one of you guys is gonna buy it. - Hold on, hold on. - This episode is sponsored by ExpressVPN. Going online without ExpressVPN is like not having a case on your phone.

Thank you to ExpressVPN for sponsoring this video. Back to the episode.

- Nobody bought any JoJo figures. - Oh, well, it's funny you asked. - Thank God. Thank God. - I would just like to preface that that was not a scripted bit. That was totally just coincidental. - 'Cause we were just showing figures and I remember thinking, I say in the video, okay, Connor's gonna buy JoJo figures. I don't need to buy any JoJo figures. So if he didn't buy any, I would have been like,

- How did we go an entire fucking trip to Akihabara without buying any JoJo figures? - I bought multiple JoJo figures actually. - Really? - 'Cause of course I did. - Okay, good, good, on brand. - So this is the figure that I've actually never seen before. - Oh, I saw that. - I'm just destroying my set right now.

- This is the crazy diamond JoJo figure. And it's the one of the special colored editions actually, I think, 'cause there's a normal colored version. And I've never seen this figure before and I've never seen it listed anywhere or anything, but there was two of them in the store, funny enough. And it was only like 19 bucks. For 19 bucks, that's a nice figure. And if you've seen JoJo figures,

- Some of them look absolutely- - They charge a lot more for a lot less. And it's tragic that like a 20 buck figure for the special color edition is like way better than I paid 120 bucks. - Also like the thing with JoJo figures that's like a double-edged sword is that like some of them just look like absolute ass. - Some of them do not look like the characters. - No, at all. - And it's kind of tragic 'cause it's like one of the most influential and popular series in Japan and they do them dirty, but it's a good figure. I mean, that's a beautiful figure.

- That is a beautiful figure, right boys? We can agree on that, right? - That is a beautiful figure. - All right boys, should I show my next figure that I bought? I bought a lot of these stuff. I think I bought 10. - This is...

- Oh dude, I was going to buy that. - I knew he was, 'cause before we left the store, right? And I don't know if we got this on camera. I don't think we did, but Joey was like, "I was gonna buy this figure." And he pointed to the booth where I got this figure. And he was like, "Oh, it must've been in the different booth." And I was thinking I bought the book. - The moment I looked over, it was like a comic. I looked over and it was just gone. And in my head, I'm just like,

- Someone bought it. - It is. - How much did that cost? It was like 30 bucks. - It was 30 bucks. - Oh shit. - Look how cool that is for 30 bucks. - It is so cool. - It is not standing up, I'm realizing now.

- Oh, that's like, oh, the cape. - Oh, the cape, yeah, yeah, yeah. - Cape Opie. - That is for 30 bucks. - I know. - That's pretty fucking good. - And like, how often do you see Akira figurines? - Never, never, never. - That's really cool. - 30 bucks, that was a fucking steal, I think. - Yeah, okay. - Absolutely. - That's very cool. - Oh, now it's standing up. - Yeah, I guess now it's just. - Oh, no. - There we go. - You got one? - Yeah, I got one. This is my last figure.

- Of course I wanted to fill this channel with some degeneracy. - Of course. - What the fuck did you buy? - I think I know what you bought. - Just the question is how much was I willing to spend on it? - What did you get? What's in the box? - What's in the box? - Oh no, I just had a drink.

- Are you kidding me? - Yes. - Really? - Yes. - Oh my God. - Do you wanna know how much I spent on this figure? - I walked past it and I think I remember it being way over my budget. - How much? - This was $170. - What the fuck?

- Okay, that's kind of hot though. - When I saw it, I was like, I gotta get this. 'Cause you know what I mean when it's just like, help me budget this correctly. When I was going through the sheet, I was like crossing off figures and Sydney was like, just get rid of the fucking high school DXD figure. I'm like, I'm not getting rid of the high school DXD figure. - She stays Sydney, you leave. - I walked past this figure in my video and I was like,

I would get this if it wasn't $170 because I didn't want to go overboard. But the moment I saw it, I'm like one of these fuckers is gonna buy it. - That feel when I realized that I don't have the most expensive figure now. - Yeah. - Breaks my heart. - All right, should I show you what I got? - Yeah. - Here's a wing. - Let me put that together. - Oh, this is in two parts. - Okay. - So I was trying to put that together underneath the table. It's pretty hard. - Oh, it's magnetic. Okay. Yeah, because you have to dole this. - Oh, okay. Okay.

- Yeah, what is this? Oh shit. - It's just two in one figures. - Okay. Is this the dragon from slime? - It is indeed and it comes with more parts. - Holy shit, I didn't realize that slime would be representing this much because honestly,

- I didn't put too much thought into what I was trying to buy. - There we go. - Holy shit, this came with so many things. - I'm so glad you got Rimuru. - Oh, that's so cool. - We've waited till we build it, but this was a two in one figure. I don't know if that counts as me buying two figures or what. I paid one, but it's two figures. - I mean, that's technically one, right? - No, no, 'cause they're not actually joined. They were sold together. - Oh, okay, okay.

- Guess how much I paid for these two. Take a guess. - 20 bucks. - A little low bro. - I paid 30 bucks for the both of them. - Okay, okay. - Oh wow. - Because I originally said that I originally had a Meruem figure and a Rimuru figure, which was 35 bucks. - Was it just Rimuru on his own? - No, no, it was like a bundle. - With the dragon?

- No, no, it was just "Rainbow Gown" on its own. - Oh, okay, okay, okay. - With Meruem. And then I decided to go against that just to go for Meruem. - So I'm glad that we don't have a single like character that's like overlapped. - Yeah, yeah, I'm surprised 'cause I thought- - I thought at this point we would at least have like some dupes of some characters, but we've miraculously somehow gotten around that.

- Why is his head not going in? What the fuck? - This wing is not going in either. - Maybe he sold me a faulty thing. I'm joking, that was very nice. - So is that everything you bought Connor? - No, there's way more. - Oh my God. - Do you wanna try and assemble this while I get the next one? - Yeah, yeah, give us. - Look at that poor head. - Oh my God, look at that.

- My figure gone, I spent money on that. But yeah, I thought, you know, I knew none of you were gonna get a slime figure. So I thought, you know, I'll get it. 'Cause I thought also it's super blue. I thought that would look sick on the podcast. - So like how much did you spend on all these figures? - We'll find out later 'cause this is the store where I spent the most. - I thought, because when I finished,

- When I finished going through the store, I thought that I had at least bought the most figures in the store. 'Cause I saw Joey's haul and I was like, I got this, I got this one. I didn't realize how many figures you bought. - Yeah, you want to see my next figure then? - Sure.

- Yes, let's go. - Rohan Kishibe. - Kishibe Rohan. - 17 bucks. - What? - 17 bucks. - 17 bucks. - And that face is not bad. - That's a damn, no, that is like one of the more accurate JoJo figures that I've seen. - For Rocky's favorite as well. - Yeah, yeah, yeah. - That is a nice figure. - Dude, look at that like swaying hand. - Yeah, dude, look at this boy. - That's a good fucking deal. That's a good fucking deal. I can't get this fucking head on, man. - We can get it to work. - His head just does not wanna come on. - I have three more.

- Three more? - Three more. - Three more. - Oh my God. Give me the next one. I'll start unpacking it for you. - Under the table. - Yeah, under the table. So I'm not gonna look at what it is. I'm just gonna start unpacking it. - Oh my God, how the fuck do you do this? - I know, right? It's so hard. Okay, go for it. - Maybe we should give it to our producer, Maylene, to put together, right? Maylene, would you like to put together the figure for us? - Yeah, yeah, yeah. - Yeah, go on. Give it to Maylene. - Thanks, Maylene. Help me, Maylene. - All right, so my next figure, if you will,

- Oh, that was the Levi one you were eyeing up. - Levi sitting on a couch, just doing Levi things. Like I just thought- - What's he holding? - Like a handkerchief. - Oh, okay, okay. - Just Levi sitting on a couch. I thought it would look so like nice on the set and also it's best boy Levi. - Like of course. - Look at this beautiful figure. - Yeah, that's actually really nice like small- - It's expensive figure though. I'm not gonna lie. - Really?

It's like 70 bucks. - Whoa. - But I had to 'cause like, it's Levi sitting down. I mean, come on. - Was that the most expensive figure you bought at A-Stop then? - At A-Stop, yes. - Okay, but not overall. - Not overall. - Not overall. - I don't think it matters because there's this. - Yeah, I didn't get to that. - I think I've won. - I got close to that. Anyway, so that's Levi sitting on it. I just think it's so cute. I don't know why.

- I love it when figurines have like interesting bases. - Yeah, yeah, yeah. - Like it just makes it seem so much more alive. I love it. - Okay. - All right, we're still going with Connor Paul. - I was just like giving him a hand job under the table. That's like, it was just. - Next up. - Boys on Boys. - Boy, oh my God. - Dude, that's cool. - Jesus. - That's cool. - How much do you think this was? - I wanna say $15. - Yeah. - Five bucks.

- What? - Five bucks for a figure. - Are you serious? - Did you guys not see this? - No, no, no, 'cause like the thing about- - Oh, that is sexy. - That's sexy. - So that's a bundle with that. - We've got the whole slime bundle. - Oh yeah, we do. - Oh yeah, shit. - I got this for five bucks. I thought you never see, like, I love it when they make figures of characters that aren't the mains. - Yeah, yeah. - 'Cause they're always like really rare. They're normally super expensive, but the fact this was 500 bucks,

- 'Cause there were like a billion Oscar figures, a billion Ray figures. - Every single like even galleon. - Yeah, exactly. - Is this the last one? - It is indeed.

- Man, you are like- - I think I might've won the most figures. - I think you might've. - I think you might've. - Just taking a guess. - I think you might've won a single handle with just this store. - No, no, I think you've bought more figures in this store than I have overall. - Yeah, I think so too. - Don't look. - Okay, I won't look. - Don't look at my left. - I won't look. I should've gone more ham at A-stop. - No, 'cause I was surprised with you. - There was deals at A-stop. - Right, ready boys? - Yeah, yeah. - For the last figure, let me get these out of the way.

- This is my last figure. - Ooh. - Aaron. - Aaron. - Lloyd comes in little, some swords he put in. I just thought it was a cool figure. I think it was like 30, 40 bucks. I mean, you guys wanna have a look at that? - Yeah, yeah. - That was my final figure at A-Stop. I think I got quite the fucking haul. - You did. - You did. - Jesus Christ. I mean, I just can't get over this Rios figure.

- That is some one of the nicest. I was eyeing this and I'm just like, do I commit to the podcast or do I just buy this for myself? - No, that figure fucked me over for the rest of the day. But you know what? It was worth it, dammit. It was worth it. That was like. - Oh look, now from now on after this episode, you get to fucking stare at this beautiful thing in the background for every single thing. - Why are we getting demonetized every episode? - It's because of Rias' fucking bare like dump truck ass right here.

- Jesus Christ. - Demonetization, what was that? - All right, so with that giant hole out of the way. - Mike! - All right, so let's go with the third. - Wait, wait, how much did you spend at ASTOP? - I spent, I mean, I spent less than $100 at ASTOP. My most expensive thing was the jump thing right here, which was 50 bucks. - That's cool as shit though. - It is cool as shit. - I spent 220 bucks. - Oh my God. - Oh shit, I need to check.

how much exactly I spent. - Because one of the challenges was whoever spends the most at a single store gets a point. - What was, actually we can figure that out. - Yeah, we can figure that out. - I also spent 220 bucks at a store. - Tournament! - It's gonna go down to the tiny numerals now. - All right, but the third store we went to was K-Books. - Right, K-Books. - K-Books, much like,

a lot of stores in the Nigel Caicon building. They sell figurines, but they also sell a bunch of other merch like figurines, plushies, just little knickknacks and stuff like that. - Yeah. - So- - I don't remember. Oh no, I do remember exactly what I bought. I bought two things. - Yeah, so, okay. So let's talk about strategy first. So what was your guys' strategy going into K Books? - This was the point where I started considering how much money I have left.

- A stop it was like spend, spend. 'Cause I felt like I was too behind at animate. So I went ham in A stop and then this is when I was like, okay, maybe I should start like being careful. - I was the complete opposite. At this point I had more than half of my budget left. So I was gonna go like big bucks boy on K books and the final army army store. - So what'd you buy? - I got two. So one of my challenges was to get an Astolfo figurine.

I don't know why super specific, but luckily I found one Astolfo figurine. It didn't even come in this motherfucker. - God damn it. Because what happened, right? - There was two. - Was there two? - There was two, there was two. - Oh, definitely. - You just hit the one that you didn't find. - Because we were walking past it and I saw the Astolfo figure and I was just like putting loads of other figures on top of that one. So I was like, Connor, Connor, look at this, look at this. And I didn't see the second one. - Yeah, there was another one.

- So I like waited ahead and I watched him as he was going through it. And he actually found another one, but the one that you buried, he didn't find. - Yeah, I didn't know. This is the only one I found. I'm like, thank God. - Oh, damn it. - He almost got me with that conspiracy. But then the second one I got, oh, the second challenge was to find a Cardcaptor Sakura figurine.

Unfortunately, I couldn't find one, but I know that if I went to K-Box like six months ago, - You got one. - Like Sakura, the new Sakura was still like hot and fresh in everyone's minds. I knew I would have found one. So I gave up on that. So instead I spent big boy dollars and got,

- Ooh. - It's really cool. - Ooh. - Yohjo Senki figurine. - That's so cool. - I'm like, I'm not a huge fan of Tanya personally, but this is a fucking cool figurine. - That's an awesome figurine. - Yeah. - How much was that? - This was $132. - Ooh, okay. - With an interchangeable head though. - Great, can't wait to change the heads every day. - Every episode we're changing the head. - Oh my God. - Don't say that, we'll have to do it.

- You have to commit. But that's pretty much the only two things I bought. - Yeah, 'cause at this point I was just trying to stay alive. A-Stop's really fucked me over. - 'Cause you spent, how much did A-Stop? And then you also spent a shit ton of anime. - Yeah, yeah. So I think I budgeted it to like, I think I could only spend around 70 bucks or something or maybe less in each store. So I had to complete the challenges.

- The first challenge was just getting a figure from a Shonen series. - Another Mike Ray. - Oh my God. - I mean, I already knew I'd lost at this point. So I didn't really, but what surprised me because I wasn't really familiar with K-Books. So I didn't know what kind of merchandise they had. They did not have a lot of Shonen figures at all. It was between this one and a Luffy one. And I just went for the cheapest one because I needed to- - You wanted the challenge done. - Yeah, I wanted the challenge done.

- Second thing was to buy something lewd. - That was not difficult as there was a gigantic hentai section. - I think like half of the store was just like 18 plus. - So I'm like, this is big brain mode. What lewd thing can I buy that's really cheap and can keep me on budget? So I brought doujinshi.

- Who'd you get? Who'd you get? Who'd you get? - John Alter. - Of course. - I just, okay. I was more focused on finding a cover, which wouldn't get us easily like, which just wouldn't get this video off the, what am I talking about? Demonetized, age restricted. - That's big brain YouTuber boy moment. - But I did buy one more.

- Okay. - But I just checked it before we started recording. I don't think I can show it. - Really? - Maybe we could just show a blurred picture and we can all get our reaction to it. - Yeah, yeah, yeah. Maybe Mudan just put like a huge black screen over whatever Garnt brings out. - So I bought a dakimakura.

- Of what? - Where are we gonna put that? - I thought we could just like hang it up on the wall. That was like the intent. We're not gonna be able to use this. Because I was like, I need to buy a dakimakura. - You want me to buy a dakimakura? - You want me to? - Yes, I do. - All right, what'd you get? What'd you get? - So I bought the cheapest one I could find. And like, it was in the section where there weren't many, like the dakimakuras weren't all lewd. There were some lewd, there were some weren't, and they were all like covered up.

- Where are you going with this? - I couldn't tell how lewd the Ducky Macaras were. I just chose the cheapest one. - Oh, wow. - Oh, Jesus. - Oh, no. - We're not gonna be able to use that. - Black all of that out, man. - Black all of this. - They sell that. - This wasn't even in the hentai section. - Okay, can I ask, because you got the cheapest one, how much was that? - 40 bucks.

- What? - That's the cheapest one. - 40 bucks? - That's the cheapest one. - That's the cheapest one. - Bro, I got like a sans one at home that was like a tenner. Don't ask why. So my two challenges were buy a JoJo figure and do the pose. Now I was really lucky that there was only one JoJo figure, which I'll show you shortly. But the other one was buy a wall scroll. Now there was a bunch of cheap wall scrolls, like 400, 500, but I thought I should probably get one from a show that I actually like. So I spent 10 bucks on...

- Oh, hell yeah, dude. - I love "Katanagatari." It's one of my favorite shows. - So good. - It's totally underrated, not underrated. - So many people haven't seen it as well. - Everyone who has seen the show says it's fucking amazing. - Yeah, it is. - It is. And if you haven't seen it, it's like,

- It's like a Quentin Tarantino anime. It's so fucking good. - People who haven't seen it are just like, "Which season of "Moneygatry" is this?" - It's nothing to do with the "Moneygatry" series. - It's amazing. Please watch it. And I mean, she's wifey material. - Yeah, yeah, yeah. - That was 10 bucks. - That's pretty good bagged memories of a couple of years ago. - It makes me wanna watch it again. - I don't know where I'm gonna put this.

- And then I got a JoJo figure. - Of course. - Which one though? - Which one? Because I remember when you got the challenge and you were like, "Buy a JoJo figure." I was like, "This mother..." You got so lucky with the challenges. - I did. - The only reason why you got four points is because all of them were so easy for you. - Except, okay, and the last one, which I'll talk about that. That was a little annoying and so on. But yeah, so I got...

- Jordan Giovin, golden experience. - Ooh. - It's actually like, okay, I'm not gonna lie. His face doesn't look like 10 out of 10 on it. But that's what you get with JoJo figures. But at least we got another JoJo figure. - Nice, nice, nice. - So I'm the one who did all the hard work. - So what's that three now? It's Rohan, Jordan and-

- This was 66 bucks though. And that's like- - Can I say that? - Yeah, yeah. And to be honest with you, 66 bucks is kind of like cheap for Jojo figure normally. - Yeah, yeah, yeah. - The more I look at this face, the more hilarious it gets. - Just like look into his face. - It's not how I would say- - We will take a picture of this and show it on the podcast. - It's not how I would describe as manga accurate, but I mean, more like Ken doll, but whatever.

I'm not gonna be doing that. - That's all I bought at K Books. - Okay, so we each bought two things, I guess? - Oh no, you bought three. - I bought three. - Yeah, yeah. - I mean, I was just like- - I just wanna get my challenges done. - I got my challenges done and I was like, I'm just on a mission to demonetize this channel. That was my mission. - Don't worry, it'll do that naturally. - I was worrying 'cause like I went into K Books and I'm thinking like, I'm gonna buy,

- Yeah. - K-Books quickly ruined that plan because of the challenges. So I spent 77 bucks on just my challenges. And then obviously I realized when I got to AmiAmi, which we're gonna talk about now, I had challenges that I had to do as well. - Yeah. - So should we talk about AmiAmi? - Yeah, let's talk about AmiAmi. - So for me, AmiAmi was just, I was just trying to survive. I was, I think I figured out I had like 60, I think $60 or $50. - 60 bucks?

- What? - Yeah, yeah. I was just, at this point, I was just praying and hoping. - I'm wasting fucking $40 on a fucking pillow case. Like why would you do that? - Don't judge me, okay? It wasn't even part of the challenge. - I know, I just wanted a ducky macaro. - A guy who like gambles all his money away and is like, "I just don't understand why I got no money all the time, man. It sucks." - No, because like, because I knew this would be my only opportunity to buy a ducky macaro. - Of course. - Why did you want to buy one so badly?

- 'Cause he's fucking part of Trash Taste, that's why. Look, it's called Trash Taste for a reason. We had a lot of blank space in the background where we could hang one up. So I was like, "Dakimakra, I think that's a good purchase." And now I bought one, wasted $40, can't even use it. Fucking brilliant. - We can't even hang it up. It's just gonna be a black bar in the video. - I've got one at my house. I've got a pillow, the Dakimakra pillow. - Really? I mean, I've got one of Shudder. - Of course you do.

But with me for AmiAmi, this is where I spent the most amount of money. 'Cause I had almost like, I think I had like two thirds of my budget still left because I knew I've been into AmiAmi before, not the one in the Dajou Kaikan that we went to, but there's another one in Akihabara as well. - I mean, you could spend a lot of money. - I spent a lot of money there and I know they have some really expensive figurines. - Oh yeah, yeah. - But they have a huge selection as well. So I knew I was gonna find something hopefully good. I mean, that's before this Ria showed up and ruined my plans.

- My two challenges I believe was buy a plushie, a character plushie. And the other one, I don't remember what it was, but I got a plushie. I actually got two plushies.

because I needed to spend my money. - Yeah, yeah, exactly. - So I got Moogle and Ichikobo. Because I love Final Fantasy and Final Fantasy VII remake recently just came out. - That's cute as fuck. - And I'm all the fuck out of it. - That's cute as fuck. - Yeah, so give our JRPG lover some love as well. So I got that and the most expensive figuring I got overall,

- Oh, more expensive than that? - Oh, okay. - This is the most expensive. - Did you buy this purposely to like finish? - I bought this purposely to get as close to $500 as possible. - Oh, okay. - So this was not part of the challenge. I got Tokisaki Kurumi from Data Life. - Oh, nice. - Okay. - I mean, again, this is kind of gonna be like Ries in the sense that like possibly

- Oh, that's hot. - That's hot. - I know Tokisaki figurines can, for some reason, so expensive. I mean, she's a really popular dead or alive character. But this was $141.

- Not as expensive as the Ria, so I've already lost that challenge. - I may have overheard or saw what Joey was when he was buying that one. And I thought all I gotta do is be 1300. And I literally just went over 1300 on one expensive figure, which I'll reveal soon. - Okay, okay. - Was that everything you bought? - And that's everything I bought. - Okay, because for me, AmiAmi was a stressful experience. Not because of the store itself. The store itself is great.

but because I saw my challenges, which was one, find an Evangelion figurine. That was a lot harder than I initially gave it credit for. - Really? - Yeah, yeah, because I missed the entire figure section right at the back. - With the mechs. - Yeah, yeah, with the mechs. So I was just walking around and there was one figure I found which was $200. No, actually no way that I could buy that figure. And I found another figure which was $100.

- 50 bucks. No, no, 50 to 70 bucks. But that was over the tiny little budget that I had. - You really fucked yourself. - Yeah, I fucked myself. - You hate to see it. - This girl fucked me so badly. - Hey, I mean, she's a succubus. - Exactly. - What can you say? - But luckily I found an Ask Her Pop figure. - No! Why did you do a pop figure? - Why, God? Why would you buy a pop figure?

- Because it was the cheapest. - Okay. - I think this is gonna be awarded for the most normie. This thing right here. No offense if you like pop vinyls, but we- - No offense if you do like pop vinyls. We say no offense. It's fucking ugly, dude. - It's gotta be nice. - I fucking hate pop figures. Oh, Jesus. - How much did you spend on this? - 14 bucks. - You know what it's like? It's like you go to like, you come to Japan, right? You have all these amazing figures. You go for fucking pop vinyls.

- It's like going to like Germany and being like, I want hot dogs from the can please. I want none of that stuff. - It's like going to Germany and being like, can I have an Asahi? - Yeah.

- No, because- - Fine, I'll give it for the challenge. - It was for the challenge. 'Cause they're like, AmiAmi had a lot of good figures that I really, really wanted to buy. I just needed to go for the cheapest one. And then the second one, which I had no idea how to complete was buy a furry,

and like 100% non-humanoid figure. And I was like, the only thing I could fucking think of was Chopper from One Piece. - Yeah, yeah, yeah. - Did not have any Chopper figures. - Oh wow. - So I was like, I've probably lost this. And then I was like, hmm, wait a minute. There's probably one thing I could twist and that's a Eevee figure.

- Okay, that counts. - I was like, okay, if I can't go the chopper route, maybe I can go the Pokemon routes. - How the fuck are they spelled Eevee on this board? - Eevee. - What's with that? Why are they spelled like that? - I don't know, because I guess that's how they pronounce it in Japanese. I don't think they realized that there's a way easy spelling of Eevee. - Yeah. - Okay, that's cute. - Okay, yeah, no, that counts. - That counts. - Because when you pulled that out, I thought you were gonna get one of these. - Yeah, yeah, 'cause I didn't think those counted as a figure. - Yeah, I thought it had to be like this.

But I'm like, "Evie's furry, it's non-humanoid, it's a figure, shut the fuck up, I am getting that point." - Okay. - Get off my back. - Okay, okay, that counts, that counts, that counts. - 'Cause it was between like Evie and Mewtwo, I think, and I was like, "Evie's cuter." - Yeah, Evie's cuter. So yeah, what were the challenges that you had, Connor?

buy three anime mugs or glasses. It would be a pain in the ass because there were no sets or anything. It was like, they were all like pretty expensive as well. - Oh yeah, just buy them separately. - Yeah. And then it was also buy a figure that you think is trash. - So wait, how much budget did you have left at this point?

- 140 something. - Oh, so you like balance it out pretty well between the four stores. - Yeah, 'cause I basically spent nothing at anime. I spent 70 bucks at K-Books. So I kind of like did pretty good at budgeting by accident. Like I didn't plan anything. I think not having challenges that fucked me over was- - Yeah, yeah, yeah. That was definitely helpful. - Yeah. - The figure that I thought was trash was just this shitty Sanrio.

- I thought you were gonna go like ironic trash. - No, no, it was like 220 yen as well, which might be the cheapest figure as well. - Probably the cheapest figure. - Who the fuck is this Sanrio character? Does anyone know? - Oh, I think I know it. - You know it? I know like the- - What's your cool? - Oh, okay. I know Tamago one, the egg one. - Oh, I like Tamago. - Gudetama. - Gudetama. - Yeah, yeah, yeah. - And obviously Hello Kitty, but I don't know. Okay, whatever. - Three mugs I bought from, I don't even know what they're from. You wanna open them, I guess?

- Sure. - That was a hundred yen, luckily. Every other mug was like a thousand yen. I managed to find two for 600 yen. So we have more mugs now for the podcast, which I guess. - We'll drink from those possibly, maybe never. I don't know. - These are like tightly packed. - Those are the mugs. So I did the challenges. Cool. And then I had, and I was like so annoyed because the,

there's a froppy figure, the one with like the cool comic book text. - I saw that one, I saw that one. - I had just enough budget to get that if it wasn't for this shit. So I had to completely change my mind. I'm not saying the stuff is bad, but it ruined my plan. Just saying. So I had to go with the different, I mean, I guess you get what you pay for, right? That's all I'm gonna say. It was 100 yen for a reason.

- What series is this? - I fucking don't know. - I have no idea. Oh no, it's all characters on the back. I didn't see.

And then these are from some Otome game. - Oh yeah, they look like Otome games. - I don't watch or play any Otome games. I know they're huge here in Japan, but- - I mean, for a female demographic. - I would just prefer Yaoi, just straight up Yaoi. Don't like- - If you had come out with a Yaoi mug, I think you would have won coolest. - Maybe, maybe. The final figure and most expensive figure that I bought. - Right. Oh, CC. - Oh, C2.

- CC, C2, whatever, same thing. 2C. It's her like on the pedestal. - That's cool. - Dude, that's a dump truck if I've ever seen it. - Ooh, that's an ass. - That's what you see in the figure. I should get it out so you guys can fully appreciate this figure. - How much was that? - That was 130 bucks. - 32. - Honestly,

- Okay, so while they're opening these figurines up, I guess I just wanna ask you guys like, how was the challenge like overall? Like, do you have a good feeling? - I have more stuff by the way. - Oh, you have more stuff. - I have more stuff. - Okay, okay. - Oh yeah, we should all- - Do you wanna open this while I- - Okay, okay.

- We should also preface as well that there is like consequences for the final scores and everything. Basically whoever has the lowest score at the end, like including the points that we got in our individual videos, as well as the points that we're gonna add up at the end of this episode, has to do some kind of punishment in a traditional way.

in a really sadistic Japanese way. We basically gonna be consuming something that we personally don't really wanna consume. With these two, because they're absolute pussies, they're gonna have to eat one packet of nattō, which is like Japanese fermented soybeans. - It's disgusting.

- I love it. - It smells horrible, okay? - I love it. Thank you very much. I grew up with it. So obviously I'm not gonna eat that if I lose, I'm gonna have to eat the spicy noodles that I ate in my Jojo quiz video, which you can go check out on my channel.

- Yeah, but we're gonna find that out at the end of the episode once we've calculated all the scores. But I guess in the meantime as well, let us know down in the comments below so far, what is the favorite figurine that you saw? - It's my one, I know.

- Most likely it's gonna be this one. - I'm like so happy I bought that now because I bought it on pure instinct, right? I wasn't trying to win the game. I didn't have any fucking strategy in mind. - You were horny on main. - I was just horny on main and I just wanted everyone to see it. - I love as well how the base is like mirrored so you can like walk up at it. - That's a good figure though. - That is a good one. - Look at that butt dude. - Look at that butt.

- Just saying. - Who has the bigger dump truck? - Yeah, yeah. - Now I know Garnt is gonna shit himself now, but the rest of my purchases were to get that even 500 bucks. - Okay. - So I just bought like a fucking, I don't even know what this is. - What is that? - What is that? - It goes on a doorknob I think or something. I don't really know. - It's like an Armin. - Let me open this. - A towel of some- - Of Anitone XS. - It was a hundred yen.

- What is this show? - That's the POV anime where like the cute girls like work out. - Yeah, yeah, oh shit, I remember. - It's so bad. - I love it. - I got some scroll from some show. - Wow, you really went like close to that. - Didn't someone have like a challenge where you had to buy a war scroll? - It was from a different-

- Oh, it was from a different- - And trading cards for 210 yen. - Wait, what trading cards? - Yeah, I don't know that. - What is this? What is this? Oh wait, you can put something in here. - Oh, it's probably for like tickets maybe, something like that, train tickets, maybe concert tickets. - It's, you know, if you don't wanna, if you want like to know who is a weeaboo, you just put this on them. It's like a tracking, you know. So yeah, that's everything that I bought and it came out.

- To an even 500 exactly. - Are you serious? - Oh, are you serious? - Bang on 500. - Fuck! - I did the exact, there's footage of this in my video, which you guys didn't see. I went to the cashier and I went 10 yen over. So I asked the guy, I'm like, no, no, take all this stuff out. I'm going back. And they were all so confused. They're like, what's he trying to say? I'm like, get rid of the stuff. I gotta go back. So I went and found exactly what it was. Did the maths on the spot, went through my camera footage to find out what I spent at each store. - Oh my God. - To get exactly 500.

- 100 bucks. - I was like, I don't think there's anyone that's gonna get close to $500 like at all. So I was like, if I can get as close as I can to 500, then I think I'll probably won. So I think my overall price came to 49,840.

So I was 160 yen off. - Because for me, after a stop, I had just stopped calculating stuff, man. I was like, I'm probably gonna go bust. I'm probably gonna go bust and lose the entire thing. But no, mine actually came out to 47,152 yen. - Oh, we got it.

- Which is like $470. That's how we, we should probably explain that we are calculating it by dollars by just dividing by a hundred from the D. - Yeah, yeah, yeah. 'Cause that's roughly what it is. - Yeah. - So I guess for the first challenge of whoever can get closest to $500, those two points are gonna go to Connor. - Hell yes. That means I'm in the lead. - Holy fuck, those two points. - Damn, I was so confident that I was like, I thought like all, both of you were gonna get like kind of what Connor got. So I'm like, nah, dude, I'm 160 anyway, I got that.

- Joey seems so confident when we were filming that I thought he must've done the exact same thing as me and got like exact.

- No, 'cause this fucker, he was like, I thought he'd planned everything, right? - Yeah, same, same. - I talked to him off screen. - He turned up smiling and everything? - Yeah, he's like, "I got my strategy for each store." I'm like, "I know." - I did not. - I did not. - No, I was just bluffing you guys, honestly. Like a good game of poker, you gotta be overconfident. - You bluffed me into being exact with my money. I wouldn't have done that if I didn't know that you might've been exact. - God damn it, because I didn't think

- I didn't think you were gonna like buy all this small shit to like get exact. - I wanted to get those two points. I don't wanna eat fucking natto, Joey. - Nor do I. - I feel pretty confident that I won't have to now. - Okay, well then that was huge. So let's go over the next couple of challenges. I think there's 10 left? - Yeah, 10 left. - So the second one is most expensive figure.

Obviously that goes to Garnt and this- - So that was 160. - 160,000 yen, 167. - So 170 bucks basically. - Mine was 141. - And then mine was 137.

- Go on, get to the point for that one, I guess. - Yeah, yeah, yeah. - Next one is the cheapest figurine. - I got the 220 yen figure. - Yeah. - Did anyone beat that? - No, mine was Puck, which is 980. - Ooh, mine was, I think,

I can't even fucking remember. It was a thousand bucks. I noted it down. - A thousand bucks? - A thousand yen. - So even if I didn't buy that, I still had the Evangelion. - Yeah, you still would have won with- - So yeah, you just won. You still would have won even if it was like an anime figure. - Damn, okay, I'm looking pretty good right now. - God damn, god damn. - Okay. - The lowest rated series on Mao.

- Okay, you guys, you wanna go first? - Which one was yours? - What's my number? It's like a Tommy Brave, which is I think that mug and it was like 2,375. - Okay, what's yours? - Mine was- - Really? - Really? - That's the lowest? - Yeah, it was like 17,440, 17,440.

- 1,744 on now. - Well, give me the point because mine was berserk, which is 5,687. - No way. - No. - Oh, 'cause it's not the manga. - Because it's the anime, not the manga. Hell yeah. - What the hell? - It's the garbage anime, not the manga. - I'm sure if I looked at what that fucking towel was, the scores might be a little different, but I don't fucking know what it is. So I guess that's not fair. - Point to me, baby. Let's go. - Yeah. So the next was the most figures bought.

- In one store? - No, overall. - Oh, overall. - We did store and? - No, we just did overall. - Okay, well, I only bought seven. - I had 14. - 10. - Okay, that goes to 10. - I think I bought, you bought more figures in A-Stop. - I filled up the thing and I bought everything that I filled up in A-Stop. - You bought more figurines at A-Stop than I did overall. - And I'm not gonna lie, I mean, you have a good selection, but I think my selection is pretty fucking strong as well. - No, all three of our selections are really strong. - Yeah, yeah, yeah.

I mean, this figure's great, but the rest, look at, his selection is strong. His selection is strong. - Okay, next one, most spent on one series. All of mine was separate, so I'm just gonna go off the base that this- - I totally forgot about this one. - Yeah. - Wait, what could it be? Oh, wait, no. - It was probably JoJo, right? - It could have been JoJo, but it wouldn't have been.

I spent a lot on like Attack on Titan and JoJo, but I didn't get anything near 160. - She's just solo carrying these challenges for me now. - Well that's the thing, right? Is that we made challenges that would reward you for being frugal with your money and buying little things, but also would reward you if you bought, if you did the gamble that paid off the most. - Yeah, yeah, yeah. That's the gamble. - Yeah, yeah. - 'Cause you had to guess, right? 'Cause I was thinking in my head, would Joey buy a $200 figure?

- I was going to. - I thought both of you could and I was like, maybe I should just give up on that challenge and just focus on everything else. - 'Cause like when I saw her, I was like, I just wanna buy her because she was like a really unique figure. - I saw tits and I thought I just- - I saw titty and I didn't think and before I knew it, I was writing down the number.

- His wife was right there as well, but it didn't matter. - It was funny because out of every figure I bought, this one was the one that I didn't think about the most. I was like, "I'm getting this figure. I'm not even gonna think about it." - Oh my God. - The most spent on a nun figure. - Well, for me, it would be, I guess, this kwashi, which is 2,800 yen. - My husband's wife, 1,100.

- Okay, mine was a ducky muck. - Yeah, shit, he spent 40 bucks on it. I guess it paid off. - Fuck! - If being a degenerate fucking saved me in this game, I'm so fucking happy. - God damn it. - Okay, all right, what's the next? - All right, the next one is most spent in one store. - How much did you spend exactly in A Stop? - I spent $197. - What did you spend? - 22,380 yen. - Fuck! - I spent 22,190. - Oh!

- Come on, come on, come on, come on. - Okay, here we go. - Okay. - Closest to 69, closest to $69. This was the meme one. - I don't know about this one. - For me it was the Shawn and Jump thing, which was 4,980 yen. - Okay. Mine was- - So I'm nowhere near. - Mine was the Edward Elric one, which was 5,299. - All right, I win. $66, baby.

- On the Giorno Giovanna one, funny. - Oh, sure. - So the one that I had no choice to buy got me another point. So sweet. - Oh my God, I'm gonna fucking lose. All right. - Okay, Normie Awards. - Normie Awards. So whoever has the highest rank on Mal loses a point. - I think I lose this, right? - What did you get? - Attack on Titan. - What number is that? - Is that higher than FMI? - Attack on Titan is number two, I think, if I looked correctly. - What's number one? - I thought I lost.

- Number one is Death Note. - Death Note. - Okay, I'm definitely safe. - Most popular. - According to my anime list, it's Death Note, Shingeki no Kyojin, saw it online, then Fullmetal Alchemist. - How did I not lose that one? - 'Cause I saw my boy Levi. Where is he? Look how beautiful he is. I couldn't not. - Oh my God. - So I lose a point. - So Connor loses a point. - Okay, final one. Buying a hentai figure.

- Okay, okay, okay. - I mean that's zero points for me, baby. - I'm gonna argue this. - No, no, no, no, no. - Okay, here's why. I didn't realize this, but you can replace Reeza's tits to be uncensored. - Are you serious? - Yeah, yeah, yeah. I didn't know what that was until I opened it up. Those are just nipples.

- I didn't know, I didn't know they came with interchangeable nipples. - Oh my God. Wait, how do you take those off? Is that the thing that- - We're gonna find that out after the- - Yeah, yeah. - Oh, so they're attached to the head? Oh my God. - I mean, I would like to argue that you buying the Ducky Makara already counts as like a hentai thing. - But that wasn't a figure. But I think that uncensored nipples counts as a hentai figure.

- Because we can't show it. - But is it though? 'Cause it's high school DXT, it's not technically hentai. If there's tits out there, is it a hentai figure? - I would like to argue that if it's something we can't show on this podcast. - If it's something we can't show on this podcast, of which I have two now. - Yeah, exactly. Fucking degenerate right here. - Two things.

- Okay, we'll give Garnt the point. - Okay. - This isn't a hentai figure. - No, no, no. - I wish it could. - That's just culture. - That's definitely a cultural thing. - Man, man, I'm so fucking glad I bought this figure now. Dude, this single figuring clutched you to victory. Like, legit. - Oh my God. - Okay, and the total scores were...

Connor with 12 points, Garnt with 12 points and I got seven points. - I would have won this if I didn't buy the attack on Titan figures by the way. - I would have won this if I was actually smart. - I probably would have lost this if I didn't buy this one single figure. - So it was also your downfall, but it also got you

- It got you more positives than negatives. - Because when we were like going through all the challenges, 'cause we had completely forgotten the overall challenges and I was like, wait a minute, I think this one figure could be a lot of these challenges. - I totally forgot we put hentai figure in there. I would have bought a shitty one if I remember. - 'Cause like it would have been hard. - There's not many hentai figures. - No, no, 'cause all of the hentai figures were like hundreds of dollars.

- Yeah, they normally are. - They're very expensive. - I mean, it's a very cultured item. - I just like to point out that over all of these overall challenges, I only got one point. - You hate to see it. - And that was the fact that Puck is the lowest rated out of everything here.

- I think the thing is that he went all out with that. I was a bit more conservative, spread my money out, you know? - I just bought shit that I liked. - You went like mid range. You were like, I'll just keep buying kind of expensive things, but not really. - I was just like, I like this shit. I'll just buy it. - This is what happens when you try to strategize.

and just- - I will at least like the credit of probably getting the coolest one. - No, no, you- - That's cool. - That's cool. - You can have that point, Jared. - Yeah, I'll have that point. - You can have that fake point. - I'm still not gonna win. - You can have that point. - I'll give you that point. - I'll take the pity points, fuck you. - I fucking love this figure. - I'll take all the pity points. - This is such a nice figure. - All right, well, since I lost, I guess I have to eat a horrible thing. I think our producer Maylene brought something, which I am not looking forward to eating. - Well, that already, I can't even smell it, but I can picture what it smells like. Thank you, Maylene.

- Oh, amazing producer. - Yeah. - All right, well, my challenge has arrived. Hey, it's Ty. - So what is this? - It's a pickled mudfish.

- So apparently according to our producer, this smells awful. - And apparently it's just as bad if not worse than surströmming, which is like pickled, I think it's like mackerel or something. It's that Swedish thing that all YouTubers eat. - Okay. Do you wanna open it up and give it a smell there, Joey? - Yeah, I'll give it a sniff. - Yeah, yeah. - Is it just gonna like,

- I just saw that man go to heaven. I saw that man go to heaven. - That smells like actual poop. That's the only way to describe it. - You went to heaven there. - Smell it. - I can smell it from here, man. - Smell it, like put your nose in it. - Oh, what the fuck? - This looks really bad. - It looks and smells like poop. - We're gonna vomit, bro. You are not gonna be able to peep that down.

- I've smelled this before. - Of course you have, it's Thai. - Oh, jeez, it's fucking stinking up the, fucking eat it quick. - Okay, I mean, we have no utensils, so I'm just gonna have to get in that. - I think I've eaten that. - Oh my God. - Have you eaten it? - Yeah, it's like, okay, so it's like really salted fish, right? So it's gonna be super, super, super salty. - Oh, God!

- I'm just gonna grab like a piece of it if you don't mind. - Wait, show it on camera. Show that piece on camera. - Oh, Jesus Christ. - We got to censor that? - Oh my God, it's all from you. - Yeah, yeah, careful with the bones. - Is that enough? - Yeah, yeah. Just don't get it on the microphone, please. - Bon appetit. - How is it? - It tastes like I'm eating dirt.

- It's so salty. - Yeah, it's just salted fish, right? It's so salty. - Oh my God. I don't know why I'm licking my finger. - Give me some more of that. - Get this man some water. - Oh, it's getting worse. - No, 'cause what kills you is the fucking aftertaste. The first few bites aren't that bad, but the more you chew it, the more like the flavors come out and then the aftertaste

- Just, it hits you and your breath is gonna stink for like a fucking week. - Oh my, okay, I got it down. - All right, well done. Oh my God, it's fucking stinks now. - Hey guys.

- How are you? - You should wash it down with the durian. I think that would be a good idea. Seeing as you did lose pretty badly. - Oh, I can still smell it. - Maybe a durian will help. - My finger. - Maybe. - Sticky fingers. - Oh, stinky fingers. Jesus Christ. - Stinky, uh-oh.

- It's actually getting worse. - That smells vile. I can still smell, what the? - I don't think, like I've eaten a lot of weird foods in my life. This is easily the grossest thing I've ever had. - Yeah, yeah. - Can you smell it over there? Oh Jesus, you're concentrated. - I think the smell is getting stronger. - Yeah, we're in the fallout zone here. Like my God. - This is like a nuclear blast. - I'm like fine if I hold my nose.

because like I don't like smell the thing, but the moment I get rid of it, I can smell my own breath and it's fucking vile. - Next time, next week when we do the podcast, Joe will still be smelling it. - I really just hope this doesn't give me like an illness because we're like going on a trip tomorrow. - All Thai people right now. - I mean like I hope I don't get like food poisoning 'cause like we're going on a vacation tomorrow and I don't wanna be sick.

- Oh, this mic's gonna fucking stink, I'm sorry. - It's awful. - We're gonna have to like- - We can't open the windows when we finish this episode, like Jesus. - So now that the challenge is over, what are you guys' closing thoughts on the challenge? - I'm glad I didn't eat literal shit.

- I mean, the ultimate goal was, was to one, not lose and become like this man who's going through like the five stages of grief with his face. - I'm definitely at the last stage. - We got to decorate the office. I think by a miracle, we got like some pretty good variation. And I honestly would love to do something like this again in future with another challenge where we can each go and film our own part. - I'm surprised that out of all the things that we bought, not a single person bought the same thing.

- Yeah, yeah. - Yeah, yeah. Because that was the thing I was most worried about, right? When I pitched the challenge, the thing I was worried about was like, what if we all just go for the same fucking figure? - Deku, 10 Dekus. I would like three of your finest Dekus.

- Because yeah, I had a lot of fun filming in the stores and I would love to do something like this again. I don't know if you guys enjoyed seeing the aftermath of all our different individual challenges and how we like approached it and everything. - I mean, I think it's speak for all, I think we had fun with every step of this process. So I really hope that it was reflected in the video. I got to ask you though, 'cause this is your first time doing like a video filming in public. I'm used to embarrassing myself in public. How was it? I got to know. - It was hard.

- It was so hard. - We saw you struggling at the beginning. - Hard like outside of animate when I was filming my intro, I don't even know if you're gonna see that because I'm thinking about filming like a separate intro anyway. But I was just like tripping over my words. I had no idea. Like give me a script, great. I can read off the script. If I just have to talk about my thoughts without any scripts and like a podcast is different in my mind 'cause I have people to bounce off. - Right, right, right. - Because when I'm looking at a camera, I'm like, "Hey guys."

I'm here outside of Anne

- And anime. And I'm like, oh shit man. - It's like someone trying to speak English for the first time. - It's definitely a skill you learn, I think. - Yeah. - I mean, I was awkward as fuck. I remember the first time I filmed in public, I hated it. - But I think I got used to it when I just hit, it was A-stop. Animates, I was still like getting my feet on the ground. With A-stop, I was just, I think it was thanks to just the, thanks to the place as well, because I wasn't thinking about

what challenges there were. I was just thinking about getting as many fucking figures as I could. - I did, I got a lot. - You certainly fulfilled that. - Yeah, it was a lot of fun. I think as well, it was like a great environment. Like when you get permission to film in a place and just go wild, it's so much more fun. - 'Cause the original plan for this video was just to like MacGyver our way through. - GoPro, undercover. - Under the chin GoPro shot. That would have not been that great. - Yeah, but I mean, I haven't edited the video yet, but I think it's gonna be pretty, pretty,

- And you guys can let us know as well, like how you guys found those videos, how you found this episode. Hopefully you guys enjoyed watching me eat literal shit. This is easily the worst fucking thing I've ever had.

- I can still fucking taste it. I really want you guys to smell my finger. - No, I'm not smelling your finger. - Please, please. - No, no. - Can you do it at least for the podcast? - No. - Come on, just smell half the shit. - I smelled that shit. - Get that shit away from me. - I mean, I definitely, even though this was like a logistical nightmare planning, speaking about logistics from episode one,

- This was like an actual logistical nightmare planning all this. We had to like bounce stores and it was short notice and everything. Like I would definitely be up for doing something where it's like three angles again and it's a challenge that we conclude on the podcast. - I'm not sure if you've seen the video, but by the time we got to "Army Army," I was exhausted. Like it was kind of like that feeling when you've just spent an entire day at a con working and you're like, I've got to do one more panel. - Just a con in general.

- Yeah, yeah, yeah. - I'm a fucking, oh, we're gonna have dinner? Oh shit, I wanna sleep. - Like I remember post filming, I just went home and collapsed. - Yeah, same, same. - I didn't leave my bed. - Yeah, I think we walked like 10 kilometers that day. - Yeah. - I checked my like stats. - Typical Tokyo Dave. - True, true. - You do a lot of walking when you come to Japan. - Yeah, but I think- - Okay, so what was the favorite thing you guys bought then?

- That's a good question. - Easy for me. - Instinctively, I wanna say like, I mean, it's a solid figure, but I think the most interesting figure and like coolest one that I'm glad I bought was maybe the Akira one, which I thought was just so fun. Or the Levi one. Mike Wazowski though. That's such a good one.

- That is a good figure. That's fucking good. - And also the 500, I forgot the name of the character for Shinji's dad. - Gendo. - Gendo. - Gendo figure for 500, yeah. - That's a good deal. - I think my favorite was definitely the Jompa. - Oh, that's so sick. - Just because it's so unique. - I love unique figures. There's so many figures that look alike. - And who doesn't like Jomp? - Exactly.

- That is just gonna look good. - Yeah. - Okay, what's the worst figure you think each of us bought? - The worst figure? - Yeah, I'm gonna have to agree. - This thing, what the hell?

- I don't know actually. I liked all the figurines I bought. Maybe that's why I lost. - What's the worst figurine you think I bought? - The worst one you bought? - I mean, you bought so many, I can't remember. - That's pretty bad. - Probably that. - Your fucking Monogatari one, that's kind of- - Excuse you. - That's kind of trash taste if I do say so. - Do you want to smell my finger? Smell my finger. - I have a registered weapon now right here. - Oh God.

- Yeah, there's not much to say really. I feel like we've adequately roasted each other's purchases. - I guess I wanted to give a shout out to all the stores we used. - Oh yeah, absolutely. - Because, okay, so disclaimer, we might have shit on some of the things we bought, but the stores were fucking great. - Yeah, really accommodating as well. - If we shit on this figure, this isn't representative to what they had at the store. - Yeah. - No. - Yeah, because some of them were just, we needed to buy stuff just to fulfill the challenge.

I wish I could have bought something but a pop figure for Asuka. Army Army has so many good figures, okay? Army Army have so many good figures. But I had to settle for this. - Yeah, all the stores were fantastic. And again, thank you guys for giving us permission on such short notice as well because we're a bunch of really loud YouTubers, as you can tell. - And all of the stores are right next to each other as well. So if you go, there's no reason not to go there. - Yeah, they're all like, what? Less than 10 minutes walking distance from one another? - Yeah, exactly. - Sorry, I interrupted you.

I completely,

completely forgot what I was gonna say now. - Put a spotlight on you for no reason. - No, I was just gonna say, yeah, just thank you for letting us film that. - Yeah, thanks so much. - All the stores. - Links down below. - Yeah, and I hope you guys enjoyed this video and the main videos. Again, if you haven't checked out each one of our videos where we, you'll see all of our perspectives of how we came to buy all these amazing goods, then again, go to the links down in the description below. You can check out all three of our videos and yeah, I guess look out for all of this stuff

- Somewhere right here. - Were you gonna shout out the Patreon? - Yeah, I was gonna shout out the Patreon. - Go ahead, go on, go ahead. - We also have a Patreon now. This is a very expensive podcast to run. - We spent a lot, I'm joking. This isn't where the money would go. - This isn't where the money's going. - We did this challenge because we wanted to do this challenge. We need just the Patreon to keep the podcast running.

- Yeah, and that's pretty much it. - I mean, as you can tell, the editing is, you know, some damn good editing. - Shout out to Mudan. - Yeah, Mudan's- - My boy, Mudan. - We wanna keep hiring him.

And we wanna just keep this all running like you said. - Yeah, exactly. - Keep it at the best quality that it possibly can. And your guys' support over on the Patreon is gonna help us out a lot. - Perfect, all right. - All right. - I have no more words to say, boys. - I can't say anything else. - Joey, get the fuck away from me with that dirty ass finger that you have. - I'm gonna harass you for the rest of the day. - Can I do the outro? Because I don't want you speaking anymore than you need to. - Can I say one thing before you do the outro? - Right. - As a callback to previous episode, I imagine that's what Joey's finger smug like after he rated school days a 10.

I'm not over that. - Hey guys, before we sign off, I just wanted to give a quick shout out to today's sponsors. Now this is a very long name, so I'm gonna have to read it out. It's sponsored by Animationism, a project by Japan Media Arts Festival's Oversea Promotion initiated by the Agency for Cultural Affairs of Japan. Man, that was a mouthful. - That's a serious mouthful. But if you guys don't know what they are, they have a lot of interviews with Japanese creators and also with a lot of Japanese anime studios as well, and a whole lot more.

Anyway, they're having a free anime screening this weekend online, which you can check out in the description below. So for those of you who want to know the name of the three anime films, it is Colorful Ninja Iromaki. The second one is Matasaburo of the Wind. And the third one is simply titled Rebecca.

- So basically these are three films from the Young Animator Training Project. And if you've ever watched something like "Death Billiards" or the original "Me, Me, Me", those are films that came from this project. So by watching them, you can support the anime industry and that's fucking awesome in my opinion. - So if you are interested in the art of Japanese culture and animation, then make sure to go down to the links in the description below. And thank you once again for sponsoring today's episode. - So anyway, hope you guys enjoy this episode. We've been Trash Taste. He's got trash mouth or trash in his mouth right now.

- It actually smells like Satan emptied his trash into my mouth. - I didn't lose. - I'm happy. I got a good figure. - I am still surprised that we in Connor drawn because thank you Reza for like fucking solo carrying this play through for me. - Big titties win. Big titties. - Titties for the win. And we'll see you guys next time. - Bye bye. - Bye.

- God. - You could argue that Shonen Jump is actually not a figure, just saying like, I mean, then I would win. - Look, I already lost, all right? - Yeah, but I wanted to get the dub. - He's already dead.
