Connor's POV: kzbin.info/www/bejne/a4XRlIF9itZseNU The Trash Taste Special Nobody Got to See kzbin.info/www/bejne/aGnQoWmMZt50jbM

[@lgr2284]

Basically the special was boring and it sucked. I appreciate the guys for taking the bullet on this one. Cheers, boys. 👍🍻

[@spade8536]

good on them. trying out different ideas require lots of risk. some can be extremely good, but some can’t be entertaining enough to be as a TT special. gotta appreciate the efforts and thinking that was put into all of the content that we watch

[@neverknowsbest.]

Doesn't matter we'd all still watch

[@NaramSinofAkkad790]

Idea: A trash taste after dark stream where they react to the special. Then you have the banter and the kendo.

[@b_hav_6365]

They would have to go through the effort to edit the special. Then they might just as well release it. The reaction seems like a cool idea, but not really practical. The boys prefer quality for TT and reacting to stuff isn't the best content.

[@xcjsmith5310]

Thank you for uploading this, I didn’t know there is a kendo special that is scrapped, and allow me to understand that there are many things behind the scene that is essential to a great production

[@Ultra_64]

Yeah, they teased it on their Twitter account but it never came out and people were wondering

[@kosakos1999]

TBH I see how a Kendo special would be boring. I'd tried kendo for a couple months (I have to quit as I moved too far away from the dojo) and seeing how rigid the sport is, and how long they train you on the basics before you get to hit each other with sticks (by the time I left I haven't actually played in an actual match, all I did was practicing swings on the instructors), it would be EXTREMELY boring to watch a 1-2 hour special of the boys just learning the basics.

[@1337hacks]

Totally agree. Kendo is fun but you need a lot of time to earn it and even if the boys got to a point where they enjoyed it, its really difficult to make it a video that everyone can enjoy.

[@greatninja2590]

It depends you can watch other youtuber trying out kendo for the first time and they skip a lot of steps like they teach them the basic and give it a go. I think the more likely scenario is that their just bad at it when talking about those trying out kendo videos I meantion they usually have some experience in martial arts already so the transition to other sword skills would be easier. so 3 dudes just swinging swords randomly most likely just doesn't look good.

[@FredMaverik]

@@greatninja2590 it's THEY'RE not THEIR for fucks sakes

[@bleachno9]

Garnt explained this way better, from a more pragmatic and work based perspective. Connor made it seem like it was only vaguely not up to their standards but still like something we might want to see.

[@shoobzy3431]

Tbf I definitely would've still watched it even if it was super scuffed just to see them do kendo.

[@penttikoivuniemi2146]

I feel like something as involved as a martial arts special would require them to actually train for a longer period of time, like at the very least a month or two, and they could make the whole thing like a shonen training montage with banter in between and maybe them talking about what they are doing at an izakaya after a day's training. They could have different teachers and they could train both together and separately with their teachers, and the special would show how much (if at all) they evolve during the time. At the end, they would compete with each other, and it would be as much the different teachers competing with each other in how much they can drill into a bunch of inept weebs in a few weeks as the BOIS competing amongst themselves. Obviously this is much more work and much more expensive, but I really don't think there is a good way to make a TT special on martial arts in a single day.

[@tjhunter9787]

As soon as garnt stated that they had a SEVENTH of the time they need to make a special they're happy with, I knew that spelled like an actual mess.

[@AmRegularGuy]

Yea, like 3 hours to set up and actually record is big no no

[@freddy5648]

It’s literally impossible to get a good specials worth of content in 3 hours is impossible. I was once on set with this time limit and it was terrible, everyone is just super stressed.

[@rafacastillo9611]

That kendo place really shafted you guys

[@toroadi]

I go to film school and i can tell you when setting up for shooting it takes more than 3 hours just to set up, its really complicated.

[@shartpioneer8571]

After 9 Years of Kendo i can see why it would be boring, the first time you learn Kendo, for a year you only learn the basic swings and if you can to do them somwhat ok you go in too amor and have start all over. So in 3 hours you can do only do so much

[@ElEscolta]

Would be cool if they could one day remake this special, kendo just feels like it could been great but having such a short time definitely play against their style

[@edsol335]

Still wishing for the possibility of the trash taste boys forge and display their janky katana special

[@gellal1]

true. I also want to see them collab with noriyaro again and make each their own Itasha (weeb car)

[@edsol335]

@@gellal1 that's a hilarious idea but sounds a bit expensive lol

[@SkylightCiel]

As much as I agree that it would probably not be the absolute most enjoyable special I feel like youtubers underestimate how much their viewers are willing to put up with

[@delta-a17]

Viewers are different than fans though, I mean we'd just watch these guys breath haha

[@Pipipipoopoop]

What you are talking about is a "fan". An average viewer having little to no knowledge about the channel would not care and click off, and these specials are called "special" for a reason, if you are wasting alot time shooting, making appointment but if the payback is low, you are the one losing money, quality content = views and payoff. But as he said, the quality was not good and rather than wasting time, the project was let off Thats how i see it

[@sangletan7076]

He is basically that dude who went on and on in a group study, but everyone is so engrossed to his speech that they went dumbfounded.

[@FirstLast-uj9ud]

I'm still waiting (probably in vain) for a shogi tournament arc. Unfortunately, I'm pretty sure I've seen at least Connor express reluctance at the idea so it probably won't happen, but a man can hope!

[@stella9832]

I hope they remake it with a better location that would give them more time and actually have the freedom to talk and make the session entertaining. The place they went to probably didn't understand what they're really trying to do and thought they just wanted to film their first kendo experience, so all what was given to them was three hours of nothing but lessons.

I know all of the things on the iceberg but don't remember them all.

Bruh. The fucking ligma jokes... Chat's brain damage is on another level sometimes.

[@branmuffin184]

Ahh so basically what im understanding is that Connor won the kendo special but we cant live in a world where Connor actually wins so they had to scrap it. Brilliant! tbh the actual reason makes tons of sense tho

[@gellal1]

SPOILER Alert . . . . . . In connor POV he mentioned Joey is the winner

[@stimpy1241]

Smart choice i say

[@TheMindofagenius1]

I mean I understood that they just weren't happy with the end product no matter how much they tried to salvage it.... and of course I trust their judgment, I'm not a freakin crew member or anything, I don't know the inner ropes... so I never questioned it. I just hope they attempt it another time, and be able to get the content they need! And if they can't (attempt it again), that's also fine because I know there's plenty of other types of content that they can play around with to produce cool specials out of!

ngl kendo is boring in real life they proabbyl went into thinking it was kenjutsu. they should've seen that coming and done their research (especially joey).
