Review of Pop Team Epic
I started a draft of a full, proper review of Poputepikku, describing the skits I liked and the ones I didn't, ultimately calling it a "hit-or-miss" sort of thing like many sketch comedies are. It would honestly be some kind of miracle if a comedy that relied on sketches could maintain the same level of quality all the way through. It does at least have more "hits" than a lot of American sketch comedies, especially if you're a fan of nonsensical humor. But then I imagined Popuko reading my review, tearing through the screen, and asking me "Ah, you are motherfucker?" So I'm just going to goahead and tell you that Poputepikku is worth a watch, especially if you're bored with traditional anime comedy. Some sketches might have just flown over my head - I highly recommend going for HIDIVE's subtitles rather than Crunchyroll/HorribleSubs' if you're going to watch the sub. I saw screencaps of HIDIVE's version that were way funnier.
