WTF did I just watch? (Your Pop Team Epic anime thread.)

Yes. I'm also reminded of RWBY Chibi with the cute yet absurd tone to it.
--- Quote from: Matsuri on January 27, 2018, 02:15:15 AM ---I find it enjoyable, however extremely overhyped.

I agree. The first four episodes had a few bits that made me chuckle, but the rest was...Eh. Then again, I was still in shock by the sheer troll value of the first episode. I want that idol series to be real, darnit!

I'm ok with this. Even moreso if one of them makes a magical girl/mecha musume variant of the show. (is quite into Symphogear)
KennyMan666:
Interview with Poptepipic's producer.
Edit: Also, episode seven is the best one yet. This show, holy fuck.
Tamer Anode/Cathode:
Well. That last episode went places.
It seemed the quality of the jokes dipped after the first 4 episodes, but 11 and 12 were really strong. I feel like the "genre parody shorts" took up too much of the episodes when it seemed like the show was at its best with the rapid-fire sketch comedy?
