If you've been watching these since the very first one I uploaded in 2019, thank you so much!! Q___Q I really love the conversation-format style of videos but I think it's time I retire Childhood Crushes and illustrate other topics! (idk maybe one day I'll make a 5th one but there are no plans for it) I was really really nervous about whether people would like this one bc I know it's been a while since the last one but I hope you enjoyed!!

Emily is hilarious... she actually thinks this is the last childhood crushes... she thinks it’ll end at 4... that was her last mistake...

Kronk is a masculine ideal, guy is buffed, can cook, take care of children, is dedicated to his job, clearly has a conscience (I mean look at his devil and angel) and more importantly, can talk to animals. No reason for emily to feel shame for having a crush on him.

Emily: Pretty boys Soley: Nerdy boys Kristine: Rugged dudes Erold: Sister complex Daidus: -Furry- Reagan: Dorks & silver foxes Maaz: Big tiddy goth gf Sultan: Smart girls Connor: Milfs Garnt: Tsunderes Joey: Tomboys

16:34 I love how the guys aren’t making fun of Emily in this part but instead sound actually concerned for her

I love how talking about childhood crushes can tell you a lot about a person, mostly on how much therapy they might need 😂

I find it funny how Emily used to draw Connor in his avatar style with the suit and neat hair, but now draws him in a shirt with a stubble and messy hair

"starfire is just a magical girl" is something that i never thought of but definitely sensible 😮

My favourite part of this series is when someone mentions a character and someone else just goes “yes!” And then they just get hyped out of their minds. Like for 30 seconds it’s just pure hype.

The Trash Taste Boys + the 4th ChildHood Crushes Video?! This is So Awesome Im gonna go make some popcorn cause I love both of these series too much. Great to see em back

What I've learned from this: Garnt's ideal type: Sydney (masochist) Joey's ideal type: Aki (eyeliner) Connor's ideal type: *MILEY CYRUS*

Honestly, I think the best part of these videos are the conversational nature of them. Hope to see more stuff like this, even if it's not about childhood crushes.

The boy's dynamic with Emily is so fucking funny, everyone is just willingly exposing themselves with the wildest takes 🤣 she really adds extra trash taste to trash taste 🤣

It’s pretty bittersweet to find that this is the last time you’ll be making a Childhood Crush video but I understand where you’re coming from and it’s been some of the most fun just sitting down with a morning coffee just watching everyone banter with so much passion for their crushes. It also must have been your most time-consuming video to make and we all appreciate the effort you put into it! I’m sure many will continue to go back and enjoy this form of content for many years to come! Good job in the video!! 🎉

Emily: Tall, dark hair Soley: Same as Emily Christine: Grungy and rugged Daidus: Big boob tsunderes Erold: Sister complex Sultan: Love-hate smart girls Reagan: Silver foxes Maaz: Big tiddy goth GF Connor: Mommy Joey: Goth tomboy dominatrices Gigguk: Masochist

6:57 I love how in any other context this would be the point where the conversation breaks down into laughter but It's Connor so everyone just takes it in stride.

Just saw 15:39 and have to say: There is a time when you *stop* having a crush on any character voiced by Sawashiro Miyuki? I don’t think that’s possible, her voice is just too attractive.

Let's not forget that this series is the reason why Emily's entire fanbase cyberbullied her into watching Avatar and she proceeded to make 2 animatics about it. While it's sad to see it end, I'm more excited to see what other topics you cover in your future conversational style videos! PS: Emily's blonde crush was actually the very first crush she mentioned at the start of this series: Legolas (although I guess it's technically gold, LOTR fans don't come for me)

I love that when any people in this series disagree it turns into a bombardment of yelling but once they agree it becomes a short bonding moment.

I FREAKIN LOVE BLACK LAGOON AND REVY AND ALL THE LADIES FROM IT BRO THEYRE ALL SO FOINEEEEE

Connor's type: Cute girl who performs in concerts Ironmouse: *exists*

-Athletic -Funny -Bilingual (Speaks Squirrel) -Loyal (If you treat him right) -Mad street cred (is friends with everyone) -Can cook -Doesn't hide his feelings -Good with kids -Voiced by Patrick Warburton Literally the only reason why Kronk is potentially a bad partner is the fact that he's as dumb as a sack of onions.

Kronk is honestly one of the best partners you could ask for. He’s really considerate, is able to cook, and he’s a Himbo

i love the trash taste boys and seeing them animated makes my heart warm honestly

All 3 boys going bananas for revy was my favorite part 😂

Your drawings and timing were perfect

It doesn't have to be crushes! I really like this series because of the dynamics that you have with your friends! It's just funny to watch ya'll argue about random things! I really got into your content from your Hamilton AMVs and storytimes, so if you'd like to branch into more solo content, that's more than welcome here! Don't stress too much and remember we're here!

Laughed so much, could watch hours of this but also understand your point of keeping it at where it’s good ~ thank you for taking the time to edit it all in so perfectly. Had a great time ❤

Emily, I love love love your childhood crushes videos. I really like your art and I honestly have rewatched most of your childhood crushes videos atleast 5 times. I just keep coming back lol

I love the perfectly synchronised “YESYESYESYES” chanting from when they mention Revy from Black Lagoon The Trash Taste boys shared a single braincell at that moment

this is one of my favourites of your series. its always so chaotic and wholesome (well not always wholesome, but definitely chaotic

I honestly like these videos. It's like the playground arguments I used to get into with my buds. It would get to a point where we all thought the others were nuts but liked that we were into the same shows overall. I especially remember the android 18 vs bulma bouts.

Kronk is buff as fuck, a great cook, freakishly competent despite his goofiness(which is also a plus), and he has a heart of gold despite working for an evil witch like Yzma. He is basically the perfect husbando.

As a tomboy, hearing a bunch of guys talk about how much they love tomboys makes me so happy.

I love how everyone roasts each other in these but at the same time, it's so wholesome to see guys being open about stuff they like.

I would love to see another of these videos but with Jaiden just watching everyone and judging them from her aroace throne.

16:55 Oh yeah, it's all coming together.

The best parts of these videos is when Emily just points to the person and summarizes their type in a way that they had never thought about before but is completely accurate.

Connor is 100% lying about not remembering the dance and I’d say it to his face

14:31 Yes! 18:30 Myrcella Baratheon. I don't even know if you'd classify her actually being glad Jaime is her dad as an issue, it's perfectly fine to me, Robert didn't seem like a good father to "his" children, and Jaime was a caring "uncle" to the kids and, in the public eyes of the Seven Kingdoms, was what many would expect a knight to be.

I still think this series is hilarious. Honestly, you could revisit the topic with Sydney and Aki since its always fun getting new perspectives from the guests, even if we already know your childhood crushes :)

Young Emily's religious panic is so relatable lmao 🤣. I totally did the same thing as a kid.

This was friggin hilarious XD I love how you drew all of them and the scenes. Haha!

11:18 HELL YEAH!! HATSUME MY BABY!!!

I will forever miss this Series, it has made laugh so many times over the years and everyone’s taste/jokes have always made me wheeze. You have some awesome friends and a nice style

Kronk is a valid crush you kidding? Just prime husband material right there. He's funny, he's hunky, he's good with kids, with animals, he can cook and clean, good with people in general. I can't imagine any parent who would dislike this man if their daughter (or son) brought in a man like Kronk. Sure he's not the brightest but he has common sense and a good heart so that more then makes up for it.

Is it me or does Emirichu draw Gigguk's hair like Rock's hair from Black Lagoon. I've rewatched this a good amount of times and all times I see it I can only think of that. Also great video

Rewatching these was a great idea, free serotonin and dopamine along side nostalgia

YESSSS I LOVE THIS SERIES!! the nostalgia mixed with the hilarious interactions make this so much fun to watch :)

I hope you pick up series similar to this. Maybe not crushes since you want to not milk it, but maybe talking about the best characters in other series, the goofiest ones, the darker ones, and discuss why it’s the best character of a certain series, etc. it’s really a fun topic and the time flies while watching these. Plus your drawings are always spectacular

I only just started watching these, But I don't think you need to stop doing these unless you particularly dislike doing them, they don't have to be exclusively your crushes, could just be friends you interact with and can discuss them with. That doesn't mean it has to become like a weekly thing or anything, but just exposing some of your friends long held secrets for fun once every year or two. Your drawing and the candidness of it are weirdly something that I don't see a lot. :D

Love this , not even if you do not draw but to go and hang out is asome

Garnt: “How have I never heard of this before?” Connor: “Because it’s an embarrassing story I never ever wanted to mention it.” Also Conner: *Tells over 3 million people on Emily’s most popular series*

The eyeliner line was so funny cause Aki is coming out with her own eyeliner 😭💀😭

Id love to have a conversation with my friend group about these, these videos are always so fun and this topic is always something I've wondered how it effects people

*Emi, literally being a judge for a cooking competition whilst explaining her sponsor*

This... is amazing. I love everything about this video

Your Childhood Crushes series has a lot of rewatch value, like even after watching them once you feel like it’s the kind of video you go back to whenever you’re feeling down. Sad to see this is the last one but glad it’s ending with the boys.

Kronk is a Sweetheart in an buff body. the first part would be enough already

Idk about the soup part, but I’m with Emily on this one. I love how thick and chewy udon noodles are. I especially like a good yakiudon.

I think this was a perfect ending for the childhood crushes series. The boys were absolutely phenomenal and I love how you captured their dynamic with your art. I felt like I was actually watching the boys with you on the podcast 'cause you got the mannerism and even small details perfectly! Cheers on a brilliant video, Emily!

This feels like a bunch of children explaining their crushes rather than adults explaining why their kid self had a crush and im enjoying it greatly

6:15 funny thing, my dad when he used to be a DJ, he actually interviewed Amy Lee, and when he told me this I was flabbergasted!

This is the best thing I've seen for Trash Taste. I love this way way way too much.

Honestly, I was pretty shocked by how much good taste in crushes the Trash Taste boys had. I guess all this time watching their podcasts I assumed they would always have a “trash” taste, color me surprise.

A lil' bit of baggage and spice won't hurt no one

i like how the very last crush ww hear about is how someone doesn't like Bakugo's mom because she "let bakugo happen" while being the most aggressive person in the world to his behavior

I love how Emily didn't even get a chance to speak.

16:36 I LOVE THAT THEY AREN'T EVEN LAUGHING AT EMILY THEY'RE JUST IN DISBELIEF

love how erold introduced his love for older sisters and now Connor is introducing his love for mothers

"I like working with my hands. Getting the job done"..... either you're that oblivious, or you just deliberately put that insinuendo in there.

Gotta admit I love the outfit you drew Joey in it fits his personality so well

I love that you drew them how they actually look instead of the personas you've drawn Connor and Joey previously, it feels a lot more casual and fun, like they're out of uniform

16:15 "I saw tiddis and i got scared" XDDDDD Best line i heared in weeks

I really felt the Avril Lavigne bit. Took me some time to realize having every square inch of my bedroom walls covered with posters of her and having a little "worship notebook" where I religiously kept any and every photo of her I could find was not, in fact, normal and I was just bisexual

"She's just one of the dudes."

14:32 - This is why I enjoy watching the boys; their energy and one brain-celled moments is exactly the kind of good cheer I need for when times are hard. Thanks for letting this moment happen emirichu.

Emi it's totally valid to retire this series, but I hope you realize the appeal of it wasn't specifically the crushes, it was the energy of you and your friends enthusiastically geeking out about things you all love, with your cute art over it! I really hope you keep doing videos in this style about other topics!

Hoedown Throwdown is one of the most godteir movie musicals ❤

I’ve watched all these crush videos multiple times and I guess I’ve been in the ace spectrum from the beginning because I’ve never had a single 2d or celebrity crush I’ve only had crushes on people I was genuinely close to and cared about but seeing people talk about crushes always makes me laugh 😂🖤

"Daidus literally in the next room" I'M DEAD. And I wanted to say I've had such a good time watching all your childhood crushes videos, Emily!

If this truly is the last Childhood Crushes video, I hope that there's an extended cut like there was for Childhood Crushes 2. I have a feeling that the Trash Taste boys have a lot more to say about their waifus lol EDIT: Wasn't expecting her to upload literally the entire hour-long recording but I'm not complaining haha thanks, Emily

This was hilarious to watch, I agreed so much and laughed so hard at the same time. Then I saw Connor's buns out in the movie theater and died 🤣🤣

My favorite animes are Spy x Family and My Hero Academia, so I was basically waiting for those names to appear in the entire Childhood Crushes series lol

16:49 that anya face thoo 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣👌

Based on who they are dating/married to, joey and garnt’s taste hasn’t changed at all.

i like how she had a crush on kronk and someone said "that just sounds like didus" and now her and didus are together XD

garnt:"i can be your angle or devil" well... at least it uses the same letters as angel....

I can just picture Daidus in the other room, hearing how he´s being compared to Kronk and having an identity crisis. But honestly, Kronk is the high quality husband material that every woman should get, so take it as a compliment Daidus.

When Joe started explaining how he likes the girls that aren't like the others. The places they mentioned and the stuff they'd do, he was basically describing a tomboy🤣🤣

I've been watching this a couple of times since the release and have it in the background while I draw or something and today I noticed that in the panel where Connor states that suits makes you 10x more attractive, all 3 of them actually agree with that when they see their picture, but I always thought that Connor was the only one disagreeing saying "god we're not"

Garnt: I like weird blondes who can kick my ass Marries Syd Joey: I like edgy but relatable tomboys Enter: Aki Connor: I like shortstacks leading a double life Ironmouse: Uh

lets be honest, we all want friends like emily and the trash taste boys to talk about our childhood crushes lol. most of our friends always laughed at us for having a different childhood crush taste :(

As soon as you all said Cindy from FF15, I remembered something my own mother said (shes a gamer mom, she told many storiee about the games she played as a child from metroid, zelda, mario, and many others. It scares me how much of a gamer she actually is sometimes) when I was watching her play it for the first time when she encountered Cindy she said something like “she is related to the older characters from old games.” I didnt know jack about the Cid dynasty stuff until I did a bit of research but jesus christ the subtle information my own mother has is immense at times.

This video made me watch gravitation thank you

It breaks my heart that this series is coming to an end, but you’re totally making the right call. All good things must eventually come to an end.

I think we learned today that Garnt clearly has a "type," and that maybe he likes to be dominated by his woman lol. Sydney, please be gentle with our boy, we need him for more content.

17:43 NOOO THEY DIDNT MENTION AGENT WHISKEY

Random thing here. Emily not liking sweets feels like a writer making a stereotypical cutsie idol girl and saying "we need something to make her different, she cant be like the other ones" and choosing to make her not like sweets as her one different point. (I love u Emily

18:43 Connor gained more of my respect.
