@McFlickers I mean I'm assuming you're joking (also funny how UA-cam notified me on a 3 year old comment), but if you're legit curious the male octopus have a modified arm that they use to well, 'inseminate' a cavity in the females mantle. She will then lay a large clutch of eggs that she will defend with her life and care for until they hatch, she dies shortly after.

Takoyaki is octopus. They are fried balls made of octopus and batter and served with sauce. I haven't heard of the tinned kind before but I only know a little bit about them.
Takoyaki are balls of batter with octopus in the middle. They usually have a sweet-salty sauce, Japanese mayonnaise and seaweed garnish. It often has super delicious bonito flakes and benishoga on top too! Fresh takoyaki is actually really delicious! I've never tried the canned kind though...
Turns out that the Japan box stuff (most of it, at least) is actually from a PoundLand - like shop called Daiso Japan. I actually looked that up. As an added bonus, the first 2 items are NOT ONLY directed towards kids, but also sold on the 'party' section of said shop. Got a photo, and it turns out that both products are sold on the EXACTLY the same shelf.
TORGO!!!!! BTW, the necktie around the head is japanese cliche for being drunk, i think its like drunk man tried to take his necktie off but then gave up half-way or something...
The Last Phoenix Usually the tie around head happens since a salary man placed his tie around his head making it look like a headband (like Solid Snake from MGS), doing silly things to make his boss laugh, either because he was forced to, or because he wants a raise.
The stuff in the tin, it looked like Octopus Balls. Though i'm pretty sure they aren't supposed to be sweet Also Pac-Man choking on a sugar cube is a Japanese staple. It's also known as SAAAAAAAAAAAD PAC-MAN!
Oh my god, the 90's Godzilla toyline - I still have the only toy I ever got from that toyline; the All-Terrain Attack Vehicle (glorified Hummer with battle damage panel and a missile launcher). Didn't even come with a driver, but it DID have a trailer hitch for one of two trailers (sold seperately). It's still one of my favorite childhood toys that's still in excellent condition.
Takoyaki are balls of wheat flour-based batter with a piece of octopus inside. The Takoyaki I've eaten was from a restaurant, cooked and topped with katsu sauce and yuzu mayonnaise. It tastes really good from a reputable restaurant. Although, I have no idea what the tinned version tastes like.
How long until they just sell small spheres that have the colour schemes of various characters and call them "figurines"? Damn, should I crowdfund that? I'd call them "Blorbs" and they'll be 14.99€ each.
A calendar? Seriously, how is loot crate still a thing. I had a subscription to the regular loot crate and the gaming edition.Only 10%-20% was actually good. How are they staying afloat?
Rarely Replies zbox had decent stuff but it had a sneaky auto Renewel. It's really hard to find out when you actually get the boxes and customer service is dire. Just messages on your order that's it.
Oh my God... Torgo was referenced in one of the few places I wouldn't expect it!!! Ashen.... The Master Approves........ and yes, I did see you reference MST3K recently in one of your live streams... Push the button, Frank!
I've heard that most people who dislike coconut dislike the often gritty texture of fresh raw coconut, and since the taste goes along with the texture, they dislike the taste as well by association. Personally, I love coconut in all its forms.
Then there's people like me who have never had raw coconut (or any other actual coconut in any form other than a Mounds bar) and still utterly loathe coconut to the point of barely being able to be in the room when it's in use.
The extra bit in the loot crate is because of inventory time! Any left over stock has to be taxed and loot crate is getting rid of it before that happens! And I need instaboob in my life!
I think the Godzilla toy is from the off shoot cartoon series they had for like a week; I never got to watch it, since my parents found porno in my pockets while doing laundry that Saturday.
It's a true story too Ya, I was selling porn to the other kids at school back before the internet was awesome lol. Mother found it in my pocket right when I was tuning in to watch that cartoon.
*After waiting all evening for Monster Hunter World to patch* Finally ready to start playing! *Sees new Ashens video alert* ...eh, it can wait another 25 minutes.
Takoyaki is octopus balls, if I'm not mistaken (like balls of octopus meat, not octopus testicles). And I don't know what it equates to in pounds, but 1200 yen is roughly 12 USD.
Oh Daiso. Never change. The one near me in Canada are always packed and the pricing can be hard to convert to dollars but is the only place I can get a huge bottle of ramune, really nice soup spoons, stationary, every damn cleaning product ever and some socks for my teddy bear (they’re actually for chair legs).
That canned stuff was likely Takoyaki, which is octopus, which is supposed to be fried in a special pan and served hot. I can't imagine canned version would be very good.
I love garlic and put it on everything, I love the smell of it. I used t be able to get jars of pickled garlic cloves near here, but they stopped carrying them. I was probably the only one buying.
Oooh, flashy high framerate! I think I like... Also, didn't you enjoy a taro pie in an earlier video? I think it's safe to say that you're partial to taro, I imagine.

Just subscribed to that tee thingy. Am always in need of new t-shirts since that's what I wear every day outside of work hours and not having to go shopping or manually track em down is a huge boon. I may not even like most of what I'll get but I ain't gonna spit on getting two tshirts a month to my door for 30$.
Thank you so very much for finding the name of the tenka-ichiban rice crackers for me I have been looking for them for years after trying them at an anime convention I went to.
so if you've ever wanted to rule63 yourself (were you draw females as males and males as female from what i've heard) now you can thanks japan box your off to a good start
Even with 2 loot crates arriving on my door (Loot Crate error), they both had the same mystery item! In Ashen's, he got the Tracer figure, in both of mine, I got World of Warcraft wooly hats (reversible, one horde, one alliance)......was a weird month for loot crate, as everyone got a mystery item!
If you didn't already google it, normal takoyaki are really nice. Basically they are deep fried octopus balls with mayonnaise stuff and bonito on top they taste gooood (and are probably very bad for you)
16 months is incredibly inefficient. It is a waste of 1/3 of your 2019 calendar, and is too much effort when you have to switch over between the two at the end of april
Kayneflanagan101 Strangest autocorrect I've had in a while! Or a sign that I'm craving the sweet crumbly goodness of a nice lemon drizzle. Time will only tell
Takoyaki (the stuff in the tin) is actually battered octopus balls. It's quite good if, y'know, you aren't getting it in a can.
yeah, it's good made fresh
WOAH

@Salvador Emery wtf
shut up
@Marshall Misael no
The Loot Crate that lead off this video is the single most underwhelming Loot Crate yet. I would be angry if I had paid for that.
agreed, they're usually actually ok and people just get angry for no reason but this was just fuckin bad

Takoyaki is seriously food of the gods, it's too good.
When i saw it canned just now though... I was terrified.
KaedeLanyo people tried to be gods, they failed. Gods don’t can food.
It's Frankenstein's Monster all over again!
Canned takoyaki sounds like in the top 5 worst things to put in a can
vizsla826 throwaway
Not as bad as the whole chicken in a can that Ashens did before... or the full cheeseburger from a can... those were gross.

I see, so its corporate drinking thing.
The takoyaki is essentially octopus in a batter ball and usually with light sauce, whoever made that tin didn't get the "light" part.
Takoyaki is a fried dough ball with octopus inside. Usually with a sweet barbeque kind of sauce. Never seen it in a can before XD
That's probably why it wound up so bad...
Takoyaki is really good when warm and fresh, but that canned stuff looks...suspicious, to say the least. I wouldn't eat it either.
At least not cold

I'll tell you a secret
It was never alive to begin with!
Ashens from Japan is a wandering samurai who uses his cursed katana to slay tat monsters that terrorize the nation.
crossbones116 What’s the katana equivalent of running out of gas in his torch? Dull blade?
that thumbnail is going to haunt me forever ; ;
thank you stewart!!

Matthew Savage you can cancel anytime and they stop charging
Rarely Replies yes but your stuck if you pay a 6 month subscription upfront. Z box is really hard to cancel but the stuff is a lot bettet
Matthew Savage gotcha. Never did that one. Did loot box and now I do curiosity box from the UA-cam channel Vsauce. That one is fantastic

It was genuinely heartwarming to see Ashens' enjoying that salty licorice so much.
Ashens is the Gordon Ramsay of tat.
50fps?? I can't handle all those extra frames. So goood!!!
I take it that Stuart has no bloody idea what "takoyaki" is.
"Hot kid" has to be the single worst name ever for a company.
I dunno, Twin Towers Trading was pretty bad. That and the stationary company Rapesco.
They also make Hot Kid Milk.
STD is also a pretty bad name for a company
don’t forget DIC
And Tatco
I still enjoy your channel so much for your un scripted just authentic way and words I love it!
"Coughing reducted" Well that's quite considered of you, kind sir.
This was a great unboxing.
Takoyaki are fried batter with octopus inside. You're supposed to heat them up. In this case, I would imagine in a pan.
Give this (wo)man a cookie. @ashens
Oh my God... Torgo was referenced in one of the few places I wouldn't expect it!!! Ashen.... The Master Approves........ and yes, I did see you reference MST3K recently in one of your live streams... Push the button, Frank!
I've never had takoyaki from a tin but freshly cooked takoyaki is delicious, provided you like octopus that is!
The can you had wasTakoyaki ....bits of octopus fried in the dough ball with that sweet sauce

Chocolate = great

But I mean at the same time I've had the liquid out of a coconut and still hated it, so..
me too
I like coconut but i hate it straight from the coconut

Ashens: "Don't watch that movie."
Me: Immediately searches out that movie.
There is vinegar in the thing you break, and it mixes with baking soda in the "balloon."
Tacoyaki is actually pretty tasty, it's like a savory soft donut with squid.
idk how I'd feel about canned takoyaki but yeah it's one of my favorite seafood dishes for sure

Takoyaki was in the tin. They're filled with seafood and stuff and have a sweet sauce
Dritto they're supposed to be street food you get hot and fresh

Surprised your friend in Japan didn't send you natto, haha.
After Stuart's experience with the century egg, giving him natto would be a crime.
That canned stuff was likely Takoyaki, which is octopus, which is supposed to be fried in a special pan and served hot. I can't imagine canned version would be very good.
When it comes to food, i seem to be the complete opposite of Stuart, i love coconut and garlic.
Yogensha I've not had garlic bread for quit some time I should go get some it's quite good
I love garlic and put it on everything, I love the smell of it. I used t be able to get jars of pickled garlic cloves near here, but they stopped carrying them.

Why would they even make canned takoyaki
Bloody hell, is Ashens still doing these?
I'm 6yrs late on this video, but I was delighted by the line "they smell of old wood and have poo in the middle". That's made my day.

I am so happy you actually watched The Beast In Space. My thoughts on the satyr/devil exactly.
Trying to imagine Stuart's face when he sees the instaboobs for the first time is probably the best part about this video

Do another DVD/ CD mastery box thing video!
That particular Salmiak is from HEMA, there's a few branches in the UK. They have a good selection.
At least the Tracer sells for 17 USD?
50FPS, so nice :)
Takoyaki in a can? Hot damn!
I can't believe they gave Animal a rocket launcher. Maybe it is a tie-in with the Godzilla cartoon?
You got new camera? Video seems clearer and at a higher refresh rate than usual.
That sticky stuff you had was called Neo Chemical Food. What they gave kids before Flintstones vitamins were invented.
I did not know 50 fps videos were a thing until now.
Stuart, thanks for not putting like 10 ads in your vids :)
