Time for the Random Information Hour! Yokai are basically mythical/magical creatures in Japan that are typically ghosts, demons, or anything in-between(often times even possessed objects or someone who has just done a lot of drugs). Yo-Kai watch is about a kid who finds some ancient capsule figure machine in the woods. What he gets from it is two things: a watch that lets him see the yokai around the world, and a ghost butler who from what I've gathered is supposed to tell him how to use it. And basically it just goes from there. The coins are what the main character gets for befriending a yokai and can use them to just summon them at will. They're like really specific pokeballs that you only get if you beat the crap out of enough of the little buggers. Thus ends Random Information Hour; I hope this experience has proved informative.
There's a long running manga series about yokai called Kitaro, which is getting a English language release now from the good guys at Drawn and Quarterly. And when I say long running it started in the 60s iirc.
i freaking loved yokai watch as a little kid, i had both the games on my 3DS, i watched the cartoon on netflix, i watched the movie on live tv with my mom and dad, i have a toy model of the watch itself and some medals, I EVEN HAD SOME OF THE PLUSHIES, i was a huge fan of the franchise.
I went into Poundworld day 1 of it closing down. Got so much chocolate, crafty bits and other crap and they were doing a thing where you fill up one of their wheeley trolley things and it only costs you £6 in total. They even let me take that home! So I got that included in the £6! Bargin!
Lol, I could imagine you going home and the trolley catching onto a magnetic bar and some crackhead employee comes running and begins recording as they chant thief, epic prank
I like to think that Stuart's house is wall-to-wall filled with shit. Boxes on boxes almost to the ceiling of just tat, with a little space around the sofa for filming
I imagine his house smelling like old people. All his furniture seems to be 60s and 70s formica chipboard and manky brown carpets. It's like watching a 60s sitcom when you get the occasional glimpse of his sideboards and stuff. Either that or he films on the set of Some mothers do 'ave em.
The guy actually has a Girlfriend and everything, I think he tosses most of it in the garage and ten years later gets Dan to dig out for 10 reviews in 10 seconds. but it wouldnt be ashens without all that design stuff, its funny his channel hasn't evolved since the beginning, you got guys like MKBHD then theres Ashens.
That weird eye ball looked like a boss from an indie game. Probably from Shadow of the Night. "Hats? I don't even dance!" -something to do with Team Fortress 2.
"Apparently you beat your wife!" It's the other way round Stuart. Amber was the one abusing Johnny. She even severed the tip of his finger off with a vodka bottle.
I once bought a silly looking LED head light, kind of as a joke. It turned out to be one of the most randomly useful things I own. It's especially good for rooting around inside computer equipment.
Got a bamboo back scratcher from Walmart when they were on closeout for a dollar, my wife and I both use it all the time. Best buck I ever spent at Wally World.
the way i understand it is, when the original owner sold the chain the really juicy supply contacts were not included and they could not get stock at the right prices.
Poundland stuff is faaaar superior, that's why Stuart goes there so often. Great place for grabbing stuff to take back home if you have a lot of nieces/nephews etc. When I was little I would rather have a bunch of cool things rather than one far more expensive, slightly cooler thing. And they get bragging rights, nothing is cooler as a ten year than telling your friends that if they want the same toy they have to visit Australia :D
ah the awkward but subtly always present background noise of Ashens tightfistedness. I bet he was a right laugh and universally loved amongst his peers, in his early.....always.
I keep worrying about R. Whiting now, the cashier named on the receipt. Knowing their name makes it more personal to me for some reason. I hope they found another job.
My local poundland had a sign in the window guaranteeing a job interview to all Pound World employees made redundant by the company closing so that if and when jobs came up they'd be at the top of the list. I don't know if that was just a local thing or if it's something they've been doing nationally though. Of course it doesn't mean that there'll necessarily been any jobs to offer them soon or that they'll even pass the interview, but it's still a pretty good of them.
to everyone talking about the johnny depp comment: 1) at the time, we didnt know that his wife was the actual abuser 2) stuart didnt say it was true, he said "apparently" because they were rumours about johnny beating his wife (which have now been proven false) leave stuart alone for a comment he said two years ago that was based on the rumours at the time
I once went to a place in Mexico called Poundworld. I left quite sore and very unhappy with their produce section, although they had decent prices on 'used' bananas and eggs, whatever that means.
Had a store in my town. First it was called "The 2 Euro Store: Everything 2 Euro"(true at the time btw). After about 2 months they changed their sign to "The 2 Euro Store: Most things 2 Euro", After about half a year it changed to just "Euro World". Can you see the pattern? The store is now closed.....
I still haven't forgiven poundland for taking over my local 99p stores. They used to have more random confectionery from Europe etc Such as Cboze pineapple and Apple & cinnamon chocolate, those Nestle Joe wafer things, random possibly NFL branded coffee chocolate drop things and all sorts or weird and sometimes delicious drinks. I seem to have better luck getting unusual snacks and places like B&M bargains than poundland, they sold out, man, playing it safe.
the spikes in the eyeball are particularly accurate as you came across for a amazing price a medical grade instrument of ocular instruction. The flashing lights are an epileptic seizure mode and the yellow spikes represent the damage radiated cones
Can't believe you didn't pick up on the box art for the headphones! The kid isn't even wearing the same pair, he's enjoying some other random headphones, not the ones in the box
11:45 reminds me of my childhood, I threw one of those egg and slime aliens at the ceiling and my Dad had to use a damp mop to scrub it off because it stuck to the woodchip. I didn't get my alien back, it was disintegrated by my dad's vigorous and aggressive scrubbing.
You'd have a made a killing buying them all and opening a shop in Glasgow. £1.20 a bottle, you'd have been rich by the time you ran outta stock. Dunno why they like it up there, maybe it's the false sense of patriotism cos it's Scottish? Can't be cos they like the taste surely, it's like licking a tramps welly.
POUNDLAND HIRING? GOOD JOKE! They binned half there staff for self serve, yet the guy on the regular till still walks over to ask if you want a packet of mars bars.

8:09 That's been confirmed as false since, rip to Johnny Depp's reputation tho, he really did go on a downward spiral after that Also I love the absolute range this store had. Actual decent licensed merchandise alongside absolute crap- sucks they went under
I did a work experience placement at pound land a few years ago the store had over £20,000 worth of stuff nicked a year were still making more money than poundWorld.

I was in Poundland the other day and picked up Cheeksqueek from Yo-kai Watch. His face is an arse with a farting mouth for a base. Could not resist 🤣
08:08 oh the irony
8:09 That's been confirmed as false since, rip to Johnny Depp's reputation tho, he really did go on a downward spiral after that

thanks a lot for the "10 item" spoiler on the receipt ashens
Duke Street in Glasgow has a shop called:
"Around A Pound".

I did a work experience placement at pound land a few years ago the store had over £20,000 worth of stuff nicked a year were still making more money than poundWorld.
He uh... Didn't beat his wife as it seems.
Johnny Depp comment didnt age well 😬 oh well we all make mistakes. No one had any way of knowing
