Pop Team Epic manga author Bkub Okawa announced that he will no longer update the manga with new content daily, starting in June. Instead of daily updates, the Pop Team Epic manga will receive an update on the 15th of the every month.
Okawa apologizes that he can’t explain why he will switch to the new schedule. What’s more, Okawa’s message was accompanied by an illustration Popuko in a stroller and Pipimi holding a Nintendo Switch 2 console in its box.
Okawa launched the Pop Team Epic manga in Takeshobo’s Manga Life Win website in 2014 and ended the first in 2015. The manga ran for three more “seasons,” with the fourth season that ended in January 2019.
Lastly, two volumes of the Pop Team Epic manga are available to purchase at Kodansha’s official website. Here’s an overview of the manga’s first volume via Kodansha:
A gonzo, irreverent, four-panel manga featuring two 14-year-old girls who will bicker and curse their way into your heart.
No filter, no shame, no logic, no problem!
So you think that Popuko and Pipimi are just typical cute, sweet tweens? Think again f#%**ers! Ask the millions of fans in Japan and abroad….. these girls are nasty, vulgar, and they don’t take crap from anyone!
The bizarre four-panel comic by Bkub Okawa, on which the hit anime is based, is filled with obscure pop culture references (including walk-ons by characters from other series) and tongue-in-cheek—and in-your-face—quips and snipes, as well as inappropriate physical violence.
POP TEAM EPIC will keep you laughing, confused, and addicted!
