"I'm sorry i don't like incest" is now one of my favorite phrases ever muttered.

Poor man got bullied for liking good shows

Garnt: Calls Connor a normie Also Garnt: Has Your Name as his movie rep

"that's not guilty pleasure that's criminal pleasure"-Connor 2021

Vanilla is a flavour that needs to exist!

I can't believe how much I resonate with Connor. I can't re-consume media.

Joey and Garnt: "We're disgusted...on how bland your taste in anime is Connor!" Connor: "Wtf?!"

I too identify as a normie if Connor is identified as a normie. He has good taste

I like how Connor is the only one who doesn't review anime and still gives the best reasons on why he likes one.

I half agree with Connor on re-watching shows. I barely do re-watch them but not because I'd never want to, but because there's too many things I still have to watch

“What do you want from me? I’m built different.” This sums up Connor pretty well

They laughed at Conor because he told them the truth

Bruh they bully each other equally in every episode, for different reasons everytime. Garnt: Domestic girlfriend Joey: Always flexing his japanese Connor: Vanilla

Connor's right. These are legitimately good Anime. No way around that. Predictable for Connor to pick, but still good Anime regardless

Everyone discussing Connor is forgetting how much Garnt's and especially Joey's list reeked of "mid-2000s otaku"

Connor gets points for having Ping Pong and Kaiji on his

Holy shit the connor abuse is kinda getting out of hand

You call him basic but my man has PING PONG THE ANIMATION in his list. RESPECT.

"Sakamoto is the Mr. Bean of Anime" LMFAO.

Team "Protect Connor" opens its doors today, too late.

I feel like they should have told Connor the rules about 3x3, how was he supposed to know that putting Vampire Knight or Oreimo made you interesting?

Basically he likes masterpieces and polished anime but not controversial or out of ordinary anime

My prediction for the title - Connor has NORMIE TASTE However titled the title - Connor has DISGUSTING taste Me - Far enough have a good day

Connar is like this: Masterpieces needn’t to be talked about, they are close to perfect. Masterpieces should just be appreciated in silence.

I'm glad that Golden Time gets attention here once again because it's a really good show, but I sure as hell would've liked it better if it didn't have all this amnesia and ghost Banri sht.....

15:26 "so you're complaining that I picked good shows." "Yes."

It's funny how Garnt and Joey can't comprehend how normal Connors taste of anime is, i love it!

Banana fish and golden time need more recognition

Joey and Garnt laughed at Connor for being a normie, only to hide the fact that he has better taste than them.

Remember, if you want Joey and Garnt to respect you, then don't be ashamed of loving an absolute trash show, because, to truly understand and appreciate bad taste, one must have *VERY* good taste.

God I love the banter from these podcasts, easily one of my most binged podcast series. The pushing and heckling to get each other to defend their "trash" taste is funny as hell

I can fully relate to Connor, my 3×3 would consist of vanilla shit Like FMAB and AOT, in his words "Vanilla is a flavor that needs to exist".

Connor is so relatable here. As someone who hasn't watched a huge amount of anime yet, my 3x3 would probably be hella basic, and I'm still in the "what's good???" phase mostly. Darling in the FranXX is the closest I have to a trash favorite, but by my understanding that's baby level trash. I kinda had this issue with both TV and movies where I obsessively only wanted to watch "good" things. I also have trouble rewatching things unless I really love them or there's been a huge gap of time. like, I really would like to rewatch Baccano!, which was one of a handful of anime I watched before deciding anime was cringe and mostly swearing off it for a decade. and Kill La Kill, which I let the Discourse pollute my memory of, until a video essay about it reminded me why I was drawn to it. I'm somewhat encouraged that I've just been able to jump into anime and start randomly watching stuff from my watchlist rather than be intimidated. I think it's because it's painfully clear to me that actually following seasonal anime is psyche-damaging, and I just prefer bingeing, or at least having the ability to watch 3-4 episodes at once. so what I did is I made a list of anime available on Crunchyroll and Netflix I'm interested in, and once I finish one I browse the list until I find another that fits my current vibe, and just vibe my way through.

I think that sometimes people forget that the boys are friends and are just messing around, teasing each other, not having a serious discussion or "bullying" one another.

Connor has great taste in anime. Joey and Garnt had this weird expectation of Connor to pick some obscure/cringe anime. When he didn't they called him a "Normie."

Best list from him ngl

How are they gonna call Conner a Normie when Joey has Clannad, Lucky Star, and YuYu Hakusho on his list. We get it Joey, you’re still in Middle school.

Connor: Hey, these are my favourite anime Garnt and Joey: No.

"What's wrong with not having trash taste?" - member of Trash Taste

LMAO you'd swear Connor was speaking Russian sometimes the way they react to the perfectly understandable and reasonable things he says.

This is list is the equivalent of whenever someone says they have a hot take but it really isn't.

I feel like this episode is the longest - besides the hentai episode - that I've seen them only talk about anime.

List of best moments: 4:13 5:39 12:04 12:28 13:55 14:50 14:58 16:14 17:12 Aka "List of Connor's quotes"

I've litterally witnessed a man getting bullied for having popular taste

Talking about something and having something as your favourite is really different tho. I have some favourites that i treasure and were really personal to me, then i have the fun ones that are easy to talk about because they are just not too much to think about.

Tbh putting a guilty pleasure for sake of putting a guilty pleasure is same as putting a consensus masterpiece for sake of putting a consensus masterpiece

i can agree with Connor on rewatching anime it’s just like i’d rather watch something new than something where i already know what’s gonna happen especially if it’s like an emotional anime because i just won’t get that same feeling from it from when i initially watched it

This would probably be my 3x3: Mob Psycho 100 One Punch Man Durarara Paranoia Agent Monogatari Series JoJo's Nichijou Gurren Lagann Assassination Classroom I intentionally did not include any films because I am a massive simp for anything directed by Satoshi Kon, so if I allowed films then over half my list would be just Satoshi Kon. Mob Psycho 100: My personal favorite TV anime. I pretty much just love every single aspect of it, the characters, the music, the plot, the themes, the animation. That's pretty much all I have to say for this. One Punch Man: This is the show that really got me into anime, so I'm always going to give it special treatment. Durarara: I've not seen Baccano, maybe that would replace this if I did but idk. Paranoia Agent: I'm a massive Satoshi Kon simp. I got nothing else to say. Monogatari Series: Probably my favorite coming of age story of all time (yeah I know Mob Psycho is pretty much a coming of age story too, but I don't deal with logic). JoJo's: JoJo's. Nichijou: Funniest shit I've ever seen. Gurren Lagann: Believe in the you that believes in yourself. Probably the most inspirational shit I've ever seen. Ass Class: Idk, I just really like the show. You can think it's boring if you want, but this is honestly just what I like.

Garnt: “golden time is my favorite romance anime” Domestic girlfriend: “am I a joke to you?”

I love how Connor started at “Fuck off gents, I have good taste” and somehow ended his presentation at _Full Monke_

Connor getting bullied because he doesnt like niche shows with incest is still one of the funniest moments in the podcast. Also i feel like Garnt really has no right making fun of it because his taste was almost just as normie except he added the incest one

This was literally just 18 minutes of a man getting bullied for liking good shows.

They should do on the next podcast titled or one of the topics "Do we secretly hate Connor?"

Dw Connor I feel you, I don't like to rewatch or re-read stuff I've experienced before too. There's so much new content out there to see and possibly learn from, I don't really see the point of re-experiencing something you've seen before. The only exceptions would be content that has a super complicated story that basically requires you to rewatch it to comprehend the entirety of the plot.

I forget a lot of things in shows i‘ve watched, so rewatching good shows just to refresh your memory is actually quite fun

Connor : Having normal taste The Boys : *DiSgUsTaNg*

We need more videos like this. It's so funny seeing them talking about their tastes XD

"I just don't like shit shows Joey" Lol I can't believe this guy.

Connor: "I don't rewatch anime" Me watching Gon rage quit his innocence for the 11th time: "Can't relate"

My 3x3 for those who care: D-Frag, Demon Slayer, Death Note, Free, Bunny-Girl Senpai, JoJo Part 3, Dragon Maid, Takagi-san, Fairy Tail 1. D-Frag was a fun and wholesome slice of life with tons of great moments. 2. Demon Slayer’s animation, characters, soundtrack, and Episode 19 all made this one of my favorite shounens. 3. Death Note has one of my favorite cat-and-mouse rivalries in all of fiction and the show has my all time favorite anime soundtrack. 4. Free is special to me because I was on my High School’s swim team and the beautiful animation of Haru and co. swimming reminded me of the days when I was swimming with my teammates. 5. Rascal Does Not Dream of Bunny-Girl Senpai is my all time favorite anime mostly because of how much I loved Sakuta and the other girls. 6. Yes, Stardust Crusaders has a lot of issues, but to me, part 3 has the best characters and all the moments of the crew bonding with each other make this my favorite battle road trip anime. 7. Ms. Kobayashi’s Dragon Maid is both adorable and hilarious and Kobayashi is extremely relatable. 8. Skilled Teaser Takagi san is also an adorable slice of life with many moments that had me rooting for Nishikata even though he is kind of an idiot. 9. Fairy Tail is fucking awful and I love it. The story is dumb, but all of the characters fighting for each other and bonding are the reason why I love Fairy Tail.

There’s purpose both in rewatching stuff and checking out shit you’ve never seen. Sure, rewatching can be just for comfort, because you know it’s good, but if it’s a really good show you’ll appreciate certain things even more upon rewatching it because your understanding of the art will have improved.

Wow, I haven’t heard anyone else talk about Golden Time, so I was really surprised and happy to hear that title! I can’t find it anywhere but love the ED to it 😭

Obviously these are all good anime. I'm not blaming any of them for this, but Joey & Garnt could be more descriptive in telling Connor what 3x3 supposed to be. This 3x3 meme is made to spark discussion, to tell people "hey I know not a lot of people would agree, this is what I like." If your 3x3 is all universally good anime, then there would be no discussions to be had. One glance in this 3x3 and I was like "yup, they're all good, nothing to discuss here, let's move on". Again, it's nobody's fault, because by his own admission, Connor doesn't watch a lot of anime, so of course he only watches the good ones (or at least remember the good ones).

Connor: "It feels sad. It feels like you're just trying to capture something that's gone in your life" Me: Oh God, please don't call me out like this

Re: the shows you talk about most being different from your favorites: I completely get this. There are just shows which I love but I don't really have much to say about them other than reiterating how much I love it or generic compliments about how fleshed out the characters are, how well-planned and executed the plot is, the effort that went into the worldbuilding. I could tell you about why I like it in under a minute and if you talk to me about it a second time I don't have anything new to say. But there are also shows which I don't consider to be my favorites or even particularly good that I could dig into for the rest of time. Those two are just not the same.

I'm left thinking about what I'd put in my top 9. I think I could get ...4 without too much difficulty, but filling out the rest would require digging through my childhood as well as more recent seasonal pieces to cobble something together.

Welcome to another episode of "Garnt and Joey try to convince Conner he's wrong."

“I don’t even think JOJO should be treated as an anime, it’s a lifestyle” -Connor 2021

I only rewatch something that's really really short, like a single episode or a movie, unless it's with someone who hasn't seen it or I watched it a long time ago and forgot quite a bit about it.

i understand connor, i'm the same way. i really dont like rewatching shows. theres very very few animes i've rewatched and the ones that i did were mostly movies, because with a movie, after say like 5 or 6 years i'll pretty much forget a big part of it, but with shows, i'll forget sure but after i watch like one episode it kickstarts my brain and i'll remember every part of that show again and be like "whats the point in watching the whole series again when i already know what happens". wolf's children is probably the only anime movie i could frequently rewatch.

My nine (9) would be: One piece Berserk (1997) Haikyuu AOT Hunter x hunter Hajime no ippo Mob psycho Diamond no ace Gungrave

By definition, wine drank during the "Trash Taste" podcast comes from a box stashed in the mini fridge just off camera. :D

The first anime that I totally loved that got me into watching more was World God Only Knows, I binged the anime and read the whole manga series in a couple nights. It is my guilty pleasure and I am not ashamed. Also, the music in WGOK is really good.

Joey: “ why would you talk about a show if it’s not your favorite?” Garnt: *makes 5 videos and talks in lengths about domestic girlfriend*

I can't rewatch either, I just don't have time, and my plan to watch is bigger than my watched

Not gonna lie conor list has the most personality. Like fuck mob psycho 100 is fucking unique in every sense of the word. Like compared to garnt list this man actually has more than the bare Standard

When i saw that Connor had put Banana Fish I felt soo happy and I don't now why lol

I find it really hard to rewatch a show or replay a game, its only usually if i want someone close to me to experience something that i will rewatch it and even then only when im with them. Besides that i have a very small list of comfort media that i will consume again, but its a small list

4:15 Both stare at each other for a sec, thinks the same thing and laughs at the same time. True Man of cultures😂😂

I've seen someone else say it before and with this it still stands true, Connor is that one character that is just completely normal and is surrounded by a bunch of weird people/tastes so his looks weird in comparison. Connor's list is definitely the safest picks, and that's fine, I expected that from him. Only one I disagree with is Sakamoto, I'm with Garnt on this one. I laughed maybe twice through out that entire show.

"that's not Guilty Pleasure Joey that's Criminal Pressure" that was a really underrated comment.

i think guilty pleasure shows are something that have only nostalgic connection. because the anime itself reminds them of a time when they frst began watching anime, or something that made a significant impact on their life. and i thin connor began watching anime at a late age, so he hasnt had that childish enlightenment from watching any shows ,so he doesnt have any nostalgic connection with any certain anime, and so he doesnt have that one anime that means more to him that just being an anime.

Garnt and Joey are like opressive parents who tell you "we know you can do better, you need to try harder"

I feel like Joey and Garnt are anime hipsters

3:13 Grant's shirt is so dope

Where did you get the longsleeves??

What I don't get how did the others' list have more personality, just because they added one weird one? For me this list says, what Connor actually said that life is a roller coaster, you can be OP as hell but still a loser. Not to mention, Connor is the youngest, obviously oldschool anime hits different today. So he wouldn't put that many as on Garnt's list. For me Joey's list was the most try hard. But that's my opinion.

If we learned anything from the episode is just because you have "good taste" in anime does not mean you have good taste in anime

Being infinitely behind on trends I started wondering what my 9x9 would look like and I'm having a hard time getting past 7. I'm not even overthinking like Connor talks about, I'm just having a hard time finding anime that I like as much as the 7 I've picked so far.

I couldnt tell you my top 9 favorite anime, its been like 3 years since i watched anime and ive forgoten the plot of every anime i watched, rewatching stuff atm like sakamoto and saiki k so i know they are in my top list haha

9:51 Connor: “It pisses me off when the main character is a wimp beyond comprehension.” Me: *horrible flashbacks to Mirai Nikki*

Garnt: HxH shouldn't be there in the list HxH fans: Kill him!

I feel Connor tho. If I already seen something it’s very hard to convince myself to watch it again. The only cases where I’d watch a show again are If I haven’t seen it for a very long time (at least 5 years), If I have only watched parts (One Piece, JoJo, to Love-Ru), there’s a new season coming out and I want to get me up to speed (although most of the time I’ll just skip through it or watch a recap) or if I literally don’t remember anything about the show

5:00 I don't rewatch animation or film either, if I don't get the 'food' I just stay empty whole day and have no idea about anything which I am thinking about in that day.

I really like his list, tbh.

I don't know why, but as Joey and Garnt having a huge problem with Connor's anime list to be too vanilla and they start to argue while Connor has to defend his list makes me fucking laugh so hard my neighbour had to knock the wall to tell me to be quiet in the middle of the night. Maybe i do get easily laugh when people starts argue in videos or I just fucking love these guys.

There is show that when u re-watch it u gain something different and u see it from different perspective for example attack on titan or evangelion series. That kind of show that make it valuable for me to re-experience.

How long does hxh take to get good? im new to anime its my 2nd series ive watched but i bounced on ep 12 (its not bad im just yet to care about the story or the characters) and picked up yu yu hakusho instead

Garnt and Joey calling Connor vanilla and has freaking your name and princesses mononoke on their list lol Connor’s list is the only one that has anime that I’ve seen all of them! He’s got really good taste!

Atleast Connor had overlooked shows like Ping Pong & Banana Fish, Garnt had the most tryhard list.
