| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- I actually laughed at the beginning bit with the live action, and when they had the male VAs in the second half sing. So we're definitely on the up and up. Also, the OP was unironically really good, what the hell. |

| Pop Team Epic's OP > Hoshiro Girldrop's OP Another thing that changes in the second half is the live-action bit with the VAs reacting to the producer. It's much more dramatic/worth the watch. |
| "No, son, you may not have your body pillow at the dinner table!" |
| Is it bad to say that I am jealous of Pop Team Epic's second episode? Because it did a far greater 4th wall break than Animegataris and Re:Creators. I am VERY jealous right now! 😤 |
 |
| First skit and I already lost it, I spat my drink everywhere ... I love this so much. |
 |
| The first joke I laughed at (and only one in the series) was the voice actor one, that one was genuinely clever. Besides that, another grossly unfunny episode IMO... but the OP is surprisingly good and straight forward. |
 |
| I like how they made fun of generic fantasy anime at the beginning. Which fortune teller prediction did you screenshot? I got a cute Nanachi.  |
| Who the VAs this time round??? |
Another screenshot i took: |
| Right. I've read the manga, but in terms of the anime, it seems like they're going for a shorter and even more random Gag Manga Biyori. SupremeEdgelord said: I like how they made fun of generic fantasy anime at the beginning. Which fortune teller prediction did you screenshot? I got a cute Nanachi. Holy crap. That's a random Abyss reference. It wasn't even trying to hide it. They referenced Nanachi by name. Lol. |
| The proper OP is so fire. |
| Ok this time there was more to the repeat. Now i hope they'll stop it or it's going to get old unless there are more and more differences. |
Actually not that random. There was a Pop Team Epic collab before. |
| That was just as crazy and hilarious as the first one. God bless this XD |
| How many voices does this make? I even heard Piccolo's VA in the second act |
| Boiiii, the OP is crazy good The first bit was very funny |
| They are not trolling us again, yay! Well, not more than Poputepipikku itself, at least. The real OP is really cool. I love how they animated manga pages for this, especially Angry Popuko's Face. And I really like how they do various things such as those dolls or seiyuu, they don't depend only on manga. I appreciate it. Honestly, I think it might already be the best anime this year. It's just special, unique. I don't mind "2x the same episode but with different VAs" because all of us would rewatch those 12 minutes anyway, so they're doing us a favor. And as I said after episode 1, I like those male voices 'cause for me they're like that voice you hear in your head when you read manga (but if you can hear actual voices while reading manga which has no anime yet, I envy you). And they're continuing that preview gag, huh? I hoped it would be a one time thing, but oh well. I was laughing almost all the time. It's something more than a simple manga adaptation. |
| LMFAO, THIS IS SO FUCKING CRINGE XD this is some Robot Chicken, late 90s - early 2000s Adult Swim shit LOOOOOLLL |
  |
 Am I interpreting this wrong or did this anime just allow me to buy the manga? lmao Also the second one:  |
 |
| The OP is really good. First skit was very funny. The ad-lib was very funny as well. There were new voice actors. |
 |
| The OP is so gooooooooooooooood~~~ I actually enjoyed this episode more than the first one, I guess I got used to it lol That dance scene with the dolls was so well animated, the song tho XD The deep male voice just make it even more funny olololol |
 |
| Enjoy more? Impossible, to me was the same!!!! :/ |
| rofl this is truly the greatest shitpost that voice actor sections best |

| It hits us with an unironically amazing OP when we've come to expect nothing but shitpost humor from it. Show really knows how to fuck with its audience. |
 |
| I love how this is so much faithful to the manga and extending some of the strips. I find the Bob Team Epic thing to be a little annoying but whatever. Is the first skit with the voice actors a parody of Konosuba and the 'how you doin?' a parody of friends? I know later it is the Ring after the voice actors left the room lmao |
 |
| The segment with the Isekai stuff was so brilliant xD Gotta love this show. |
One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron |
| The OP is fire. xD The summoning segment in the beginning was funny. The seiyuu stuff is fantastic, I was laughing so hard at that. The second part where they made the male seiyuu sing the song was gold. xD Apart from what I mentioned above, the others weren't so funny. |
 |
| Before I begin, the OP is surprisingly well done and animated, matches the show very well. Also, lets just talk about how well done the stop-motion sequence is? The song is extremely infectious.  Also the Bob Epic Team sequences are becoming more and more nightmare fuel with each episode o_o I also appreciate the running gag of Hoshiiro Girldrop. Its probably could be a decent standalone show Look forward to next week's episode |

 Ridiculous Anime - 5/5 Unfinished Animation Original OP that I can't skip Voice Actor and Actress 3D stop-motion Doll Idol Song Hoshiiro Girldrop |

This anime put so many so many sincerity. |
| Yep this really is anime of 2018 confirmed! Pure brilliancy! Just way too epic as the name itself! |
 |
| Remember guys, anime is trash and so are we. PopTeamEpic just reminds us that. Pure genious. |
 |
| Dude This OP is fucking lit! cannot skip Another amazing episode, i loved the part with the voice actors. I recognized the first VA is probably Nobuyuki Hiyama but i can't tell who the other 3 are. |

| This just continues to be the best anime of the season. Maybe Yuru Camp competes with it. |
kie_ said: So they concluded the anime with some feminist shit... Markdoka said: The ones hating this anime are MOSTLY SJWs, yaoifags and Narutards. LUCKILY I'M NOT ONE OF THOSE DAMN SJWS, YAOIFAGS AND NARUTARDS bashing the show for being "too edgy" and "too un-PC". |
| So many different animation styles, just love it <3 Not all of it is funny, but there's always something in the whole thing that makes me laugh my ass off. Episode 1 was the Chrono Trigger parody, this one the isekai/voice actors/the ring parody. |
| The list of fortunes in the ridiculous fortunes scene (translation from 4chan): 1) Bad Luck You don't get enough Magic Stones of Compensation. (basically the items you get in mobage after a downtime in the servers) 2) Terrible Luck Takeshobo employees receive a bonus 3) The battle for the winter anime season is really exhausting, especially when you have those sword-prettyboys against you. But me and Popuko will manage. Oh by the way, about the secret in the map of that famous sextuplet, I tried pressing every button but the screen stays black. What's up with that? If that wasn't enough, the Kirara Guild fleet opened fire! See you in the next episode, "Sakura is not a monster! 4) Great Luck You find yourself in an isekai. 5) You're so entranced by the tits that you don't notice Popuko on the right 6) Terrible Luck One of your nails breaks off badly 7) You have the right to buy the Pop Team Epic manga 8) Bad Luck You step on a landmine 9) You win a case in court 10) Bad Luck One of your relatives... will die soon... 11) Kitten picture 12) Bad Luck Only one lucky person will be chosen! Please RT and follow 13) Average Luck The kitty is cute 14) We know (The Elder Scrolls reference) 15) Debatable luck You have an accident on a luxury black car 16) Terrible Luck An old tranny starts stalking you 17) Bad Luck Your dog escapes 18) Terrible Luck What looked like a super cute idol anime will turn out to be a shitty anime instead. 19) You win a case in court 20) Bad Luck You blow all your budget on voice actors and end up in the red 21) Good Luck You shitpost so much that you stop having feelings 22) Bad Luck The first manga volume of your carreer is about to come out, when someone tells you "Why don't you make another one to celebrate?" 23) You have the right to buy Pop Team Epic BDs 24) Terrible Luck You and your estranged wife attend the Christmas party of a big corporation. Suddenly terrorists disrupt the party and take everyone hostage, your wife included. Left on your own, you fight the terrorists using guerrilla techniques. 25) Wonderful Luck Nanachi is cute 26) Good Luck You win the 2019 "Kono manga ga sugoi" award 27) Takeshobo building 28) Debatable luck Popuko drinks a cup of bitter coffee... 29) We're all different kinds of shit 30) Good Luck Lucky Item: Pop Team Epic BDs 31) You lose a turn 32) Wonderful Luck You drink a cup of nice fresh water 33) Arrest warrant Also this episode's VA First Half : Ayana Taketatsu and Aoi Yuki Second half : Toshio Furukawa and Shigeru Chiba (Piccolo and Pilaf) |

| Pop Team Epic's OP is better than your favorite anime's OP. Loved the first joke, I was really wanting them to go live action with actors and they did it. The first time was funny, but the second time when they were playing keep away with the producer's glasses was even funnier. Really liked the female voices this time. I just love how much they don't care, they're doing whatever they want and completely messing with us in the process. What makes this so great is that you never know what you're going to see. Plus it's just one giant multi-million yen shitpost. |
| kinda off topic but disappointed with CR's subs on this series hidive>>>> |

| I guess they're sticking with the same format. The idol song was nice. |
 |
| If anyone is interested - voice actors in episode 2: Popuko: Aoi Yuuki (part 1), Toshio Furukawa (part 2) Pipimi: Ayana Taketatsu (part 1), Shigeru Chiba (part 2) |
| The manga bubble death almost made me choke both times this anime is amazing |

| This anime is like a giant shitpost which I appreciate but I'm not going to watch an episode twice just to hear it with different voices, I'd prefer to watch something new instead. It's alright so far but the jokes are hit and miss. |

| So, when can I watch Hoshiiro Girldrop? It semms theres always preview at the end, but I never got to watch it... Did I miss something???? |
| I like Furina, I love Furina. |
