Poputepipikku

Both are played entirely for laughs and poke at story conventions by subverting, over-dramatizing, or breaking them. 

Both are absurd comedies that mix various animation styles and live action segments.  

How can Nichijou not be on the recommendations for this. It posses a similar tone with short "stories" around random topics related to the main cast. Even the top notch quality on animation and originality that Poputepipikku has is similar to that of Nichijou. (Even tough I've noticed that Poputepipikku uses mostly CG on their action shots, or to add more detail to the action made. In Nichijou's case it is mostly traditional animation with use of CG for emphasis on backgrounds and keep a consistent scale of said background while blending it with 2D painted backgrounds in close shots). Also on both shows the characters have defined characteristics that makes then easy to differentiate from each other. *NOTE: The humor in Poputepipikku is really different than that of Nichijou by being more targeted at mature audiences, but that still does not take away the fact that both are hilarious on their own field.* read more 

Over the top crazy fun. Fitting description to both Pop Team Epic and Panty & Stocking. They also share bright, colorful artstyles, pop culture references and rapid-fire gags. If you liked one, I can't see you disliking the other.  

Both series feature absurd humor. In a way, these series are similar to what one would see on adult swim where the humor is not afraid to be mean-spirited or sometimes be cringey yet still funny. If you're sick of typical anime humor then I recommend both series for a nice change of pace.  

Both utilize wacky character hijinks, absurd meta-humor and slap-stick comedy as told through varied animation styles. Also, you will leave each episode thinking to yourself, "WTF did I just watch?" 

Pretty much the same skit structure where the punchlines of every joke consists of over the top, random nonsense. 

Milk Chan was the original Super Milk Chan. Both use humor through parodies, and the main characters have similar attributes. Both Popuko and Milk being energetic and easily angered, while Pipimi and and Tetsuko being calm and sympathetic. Super Milk Chan has more of a plot, however. 

Same random shitposting-style humor -- Bobunemimimi sections of Pop Team Epic fall particularly close to Ai Mai Mii. 

Although one is Reddit the anime, and the other is a giant sports themed shitpost, they both have enough absurd comedy and just overall randomness that you could get a kick out of them. 

Surreal comedy filled with logic-defying randomness, all delivered by cute girls.  

- chibi girl(s) doing some random things - filled with references to j-franchises (PTE - Pokémon, Totoro, ... and Umaru - One Piece, Hatsune Miku, ...) - could be seen as funny and comedic 

What makes 001 and Pop team Epic similar is that they just seem like the silliest (not in a bad way) thing someone can make, like, there is no logic to it, it just is, it is all for the memes. 001 is just a short whilst PPTP is a TV anime.  

Honestly, what? One of them was an incredibly long shitpost and the other was just plain evil. It probably isn't what you expected if you didn't look hard enough. But I can guarantee anime like these two don't come around a lot. Enjoy.  

If you liked the short and funny bits, then this anime is for you 

There are many things in common between PTE and NGE. One must first understand the correlation between these two anime is not so skewed in the grand scheme of their representation and ideas. First, going over the dementia aspects. The two anime manage to play wildly unique cards in their presentations and executions of the shards of animation they use to convey the magnitude of different acid trips that take place, be it opaque, transparent, arthouse or just downright silly although, a little too much of its own medicine at times, but more times than not, the two can follow their own themes enough in their respective manners consistently. Sure, many anime can follow their own premise easily, that is no grand feat. This, however, chooses to ignore PTE and NGE's other common factors, which leads me nicely to my second point. Second, the underlying candid messages behind the facade of their performances. What we have here are indeed works which utilise art to convey means, but in the genre of avant-garde works, sometimes works such as Eva find themselves in a situation in which they cannot or choose not to give an engrossing philosophy, but instead play a much simple method instead behind all the chaos that the crowds' whispers foretold. NGE's self-respect and PTE's "just have fun" seem to be left in the shadow every now and then when speaking of the two anime. The superficial is the visual production, and the imagery and foreshadowing are the technique, but none of which are the inherent meaning. They are both good anime depending on who you are asking, of course. But it should be noted that these two share a lot in common with techniques that end up cocooning their ideas simply because of background reasons influenced by the audience. Take what you will from the two anime—there's no need to be myopic. However, they are strange pieces of art, and enough of the right people amassed will bring forward praise like never before. If absolutely nothing else, at least take in the fact that they both have very unconventional ways to convey their stories, be it via epileptic shocks or stuff drawn by 4-year-olds.  read more 

I don't understand how you can take these two titles seriously, hell, if you can take anything at all. But one thing's for sure, PTE and Cat Soup are not okay in the head, it is a really wibbly wobbly adventure of avant-garde and surreal moments. 

Parody. One Punch Man and Pop Team Epic are both good parodies in the themes they play with. OPM doing this with an overpowered hero in the hero theme. PPTP just has silly surreal comedy to flex with. Both are really good parodies to the general formula of what you would get in the genres they situate in.  

Who cares? You don't need a story to have a good anime, you don't need to make much sense because there are no rules stating that, Pop Team Epic and Angel's Drop know this too well. I can't explain a story if there isn't one, but what I will say is that nothing makes sense, and it isn't supposed to, these are just two random nonsensical humour you can try laugh at diverging from the conventional order of today's comedy. There are cute girls doing cute things, now there are absurd (and cute) girls doing insane things. 

Do I need to say anything with these titles? Pop Team Epic and Onara Gorou would fit the titles of "shitpost anime" with the two being nonsensical to the point where logic is just a word. Everything you'd expect from a surreal comedy. Funny stuff happens with no actual point or meaning to the plot. As if there was one in the first place. Great surreal comedy anime, taking it to the next level. Relatively short too if you want to skip PTE 2nd halves.  

Both are chaotic anime with a group of strange characters doing episodely segments of absurdist comedy and pop culture references. Both are cult classics (although Pop Team Epic has a significantly larger following).  

the most random shit happens 

Both shows center around multiple girls (Two in Popute, four in Bocchi). The art direction, sound, direction, etc. in both shows is constantly changing. While Popute is a gag anime made of of short skits, Bocchi is more of a simple comedy about a girl with social anxiety. Personally I found Bocchi both less funny and less engaging, but someone who appreciated the always-changing direction of Bocchi may appreciate the similar chaotic feeling of Popute, and vise versa. 

How this isn't already recommended is beyond me. But anyway, Pop Team Epic and I Tsushima follow the same over-the-top nature and absurd moments you would overwise never see in other anime. Of course, this is a given since both had the same Director Jun Aoki, be prepared for surreal madness.  

It seems completely fine on the surface, but goodness me is that entirely wrong. PTPP and Gloomy focus on nothing but one thing, the dumb thing. Senseless anime-only one can find themselves loving or hating, with the two being as random as some scrambled Rubik's cube. Both contain quite a bit of punching. Anime that makes you understand why your crack package is still in Japan. 

-Both are made up of skits -Both have characters that you get to know better with each episode -Both are comedy 

Cannot go wrong with these bursts of randomness ranging from all including moments of clarity and calamity. Works more as a PTE → Ikezu recommendation, but do watch PTE if you want a bit more insanity under your belt. 

Yeah… no sane person made either of these, and that's the fun part. No need to explode TV → Music recommendations, but the two are basically what happens when you ignore everything and just go for it with as you marry into madness. Not your typical works. Very good anyways. 

Maybe mainstream comedy is unfunny, or maybe mainstream isekai is trash? Pop Team Epic and Konosuba are otherwise, however. With Konosuba being a parody of the generic isekai formula, PPTP is surreal comedy made into little shorts. Great use of parody on what is considered a grey area in anime.  

Both of them are: - not serious at all - extremely reference-heavy - telling terrible stories on purposes Haiyore! Nyaruko-san is a harem romance comedy, Poputepipikku is completely random and nonsensical. 

While fundamentally the stories focus on different characters (Danna ga Nani wo Itteiru ka Wakaranai Ken focuses on a married couple, and Pop Team Epic on two school girls), the comedy aspect of these anime derive from pop culture reference. This makes them similar.  

Poputepipikku is a bit more disjointed than Space Dandy, but they're both totally off the wall and poke fun at numerous anime tropes. There's little to no continuity in either, and each is full of cartoon antics--exactly what animation was meant for! 

Two fun, stupid and creative shows, similar in both style and spirit despite being almost 20 years apart from each other. In both, you follow the nonsensical hijinks of a couple of cute and horrendously dangerous girls, while the producers and writers behind everything have one heck of a time in creating the most surreal scenarios and interactions you can imagine. After all, isn't this what anime's really about? Having fun. 

Similar fast-paced absurdist humour with a simple art style. 

Both shows offer a questionable world with extremely bizarre characters and actions that make zero sense. If you enjoy the randomness of either show you'll definitely like the other. Both Dokuro and Popuko have violent tendencies. 

Protagonists are duo of desctructive girls, the anime has atypical arstyle and animation choices, plenty of randomness and in a way parodises the medium of anime itself. 

The smugness of the girls as they are being a menace to society is quite familar. 

Both are comedy themed shows with ridiculous characters that constantly make pop culture references.  

There is a lot to differentiate Pop Team Epic from Colorful, but at their core each show has the same comedic essence. Explicated better, both these shows are skit comedies that rely on drawing in viewers with their variety of lightning-fast comedic moments. Both shows feel like the kind of hectic Internet humour often found in YouTube videos. 

Similar shitpost vibe of the commedy with weird/absurd punchlines. 

Both are parody shows with lots of comedy. While Pop Team Epic is more skit based and parodies multiple animes, games and other forms of media, Mahou Shoujo Ore has a actual story and parodies the magic girl genre.  

Well, these two are only similar in the fact that you do not know where the anime is going to come from, the absurd turns and the scenes that leave you saying "what?" 

Both anime are revolved around random skits with no real plot. PTE is a little more absurdist, Pants no Ana is more ecchi. 

Meta-humor and absurdity abound in both Gintama and Pop Team Epic. They both make references to other anime, call out their own anime production staff in the middle of the show, and rely heavily on sight-gags and slapstick for the comedy.  

So, you liked whacky skits, music clips and clever parodies PTE has to offer. Then you should definitely check out this OVA! Not only does it have all the aforementioned stuff, but it also comes packed with cats. Yay! And just like PTE is a representation of modern pop culture, What's Michael? is a quintessence of 80's Japan: city pop, dirty jokes, yakuza toughs, godzilla running wild, you name it. Overall, an extremely fun sketch compilation and a great way to get into 80's anime. 

The common factors uniting these two anime: meta-humor, absurdity, gags, the use short skits in lieu af a plot, clever use of shoddy editing and subpar animation for comedic effect.  

Both animes doesn't make any sense and they both share the fact that there isn't a real story, they're just sketches, short but intense stories
