Was that a Tsubasa reference? Drive Shoooot! Aura Canon!!! xD

The detective stuff in the inn and stuff reminded me of Tantei Gakuen Q but I assume it refers to Umineko or maybe it's something else? Can't say cause I haven't seen the latter.

Second half OP is probably a reference of the OP in the last episode of every series of JoJo's Bizarre Adeventure

2nd OP was Epic :D (oh, what a horrible not-even-a-joke...)
I loved detective story, mostly because Popuko and Pipimi looked adorable there.
I'm gonna miss this show.

It's mostly parody of detective story drama, but the mostly distinctive parody is Detective Conan, but i dont get the meaning of "Detective Higure" name mention on Pipimi and Popuko male VA.

Detective Higure is for Inspector Megure, no?

The parody of the detective story was pretty funny. Some additional sound effects was added for the Part B OP, which was amusing.

The detective reminded me of Columbo, with the way he was dressed.

Loved how they added sound effects to the OP in the rebroadcast

Also liked the opening skit.

The ED seems to be (partially) inspired by the Kiss x Sis OVA ED, with how the characters walk across a grassy field, and how it's shot at a Dutch angle.

The second Bob Epic Team bit was great. All those traps, and she fell in them herself.

And yeah, this episode seemed to go by in a flash.

So far the best episode of Pop Team Epic, the detective story was funny, quirky and well fleshed out, I especially liked that ending, It's probably so far the most heartfelt part of the show. Goes to show what Pop Team Epic can do when they're serious.

This episode went lightning fast for me, when I saw the credits I was like: "Wait that's it?". I don't know if that's a good thing or not, but it happened.

Daichi and Sosogu are breaking up, awww T_T

Anyways, the VAs for the female version are Nico (you know, Nico Nico Nii) and Umi from Love Live and the male VAs are OKUYASU Kenta (one of Conan's friends) and Koguro from Detective Conan. This episode's theme is thriller, so of course they had to reference Conan, although not in the way I expected.

But yeah, this one was super short for me, so I guess it was fine.

i love the opening skit artstyle, very nice, too bad it was too short. and when they put sound effect on the second OP is a nice touch too.

PTE is really all out when it comes to soundtrack isn’t it. almost every episode have a different set of music and bgm.

and the bear trap skit by Bob Team Epic is hillarious

Detective Higure is for Inspector Megure, no?


In the episode they said "he looks like Detective Kogoro" (Higure, Kogoro, they're kinda the same), and I looked it up and it seems like it's both a very popular detective in Japanese literarture (Kogoro Akechi) and there's also a character in Detective Conan called Detective Kogoro Mouri.

WOW...WTF was I watching man...

The best of PTE by far, my idiosyncrasy level UP by 1000!!!

Freaking hilarious as always, esp with the main Ginza story (which is a parody of Detective Conan) and the crazy 2nd OP which is a parody from Jojo's Bizarre Adventure which includes the sound effects and the rebroadcast story which adds commentary to the name Higure! Even more perfect is the male VAs which adds a purist effect...right to the ending (Kinshirou STATION WTF :-))

LOLed my heart out this episode, this shows shitposting at its best and why we purists give a 10/10 score for this shitbag of a show...well done!!!

"Can't you do your own shopping?" I get it. XD

They snuck in some sound effects for the 2nd OP. Clever...

EVERYBODY SAY HO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

LOL at the 4th wall breaking commentary in the 2nd half. It was most likely intentional, especially given who the voice actors were.

I don't know, this episode lacked something and all of it was kinda mehdiocre (except for the second Bobunemimimmi).

But now that we know the detective part is "inspired" by Detective Conan, what was the classical looking skit in the beginning about (the horseman one)?

That Captain Tsubasa skit was great, in that series there was so much momentum to every kick only in this case PTE turned it on its head and replace it with Kamehameha alike beams XD The bar one was also pretty funny.

The mystery/murder story on the other hand wasnt that amusing imo. Maybe because the references went completely over my head eh dont know.

Your assumption is kind of close in that the detective played by Chafurin, also voices the investigator Ooishi from Higurashi.

Detective Higure's voice is almost identical to Megure's but I don't want to draw conclusions. https://myanimelist.net/character/4253/Juuzou_Megure

So many reference about detective related anime! I am astonished :D Another top tier episode of them :)

Like the second op, very clever XD

Why is everyone not pointing out that Pipimi is voiced by Aoki and Popuko is voiced by Takamura from Hajime no Ippo??? This added more value to the episode and it became epic to me XD

Even there end song is so well matered comedy material hehehe!
