This is not the first time AC-bu did advanced paper theater thing. But this time they tuned it up to 11.

That Hellshake Yano bit.. incredible. I wasn't too impressed with the last two episodes but this one has certainly brought it back up to par, imo. Great stuff.

Finally, Pop Team Epic is back to being great. The video game jokes were fun, and hellshake yano.... Well, it speaks for itself. Wild, bizarre, and perfect. I love bob team epic.

I also liked that the skits were shorter this episode. It made everything feel much better.

I think we all can agree that the Hellshake Yano part was the best fucking thing ever. I love bobunemimimmi with a passion, but I'm definitely not mad that we got this work of art instead

on 2nd part, I heard: the voice of shikamaru/makishima and voice of mercurius/imaizumi! (Shoutarou Morikubo & Kousuke Toriumi)
The Hellshake Yano no cut-scene skit was brilliant for me! BRAVO CLAP CLAP CLAP!!!
5/5.

My God. The one day I couldn't be bothered to watch the episode as it came out... It decides to be "lit," an amazing episode that was.
I would've said those parts unlined but its all been said i.e. hellshake tank

Can someone tell me though; why do they do a re broadcast, its been bugging me since there is only subtlest of details -like an extra sentence or two- thrown in

well...I do not know where I should look for this but, c'mon hellshake yano looks like a character with purple hair in another anime with a "shit style", I really wanted to know what anime this is, I completely forgot the name or how to find it, hellshake yano is one of the best things that one has in the episode and when I saw him I soon remembered this anime
this is an anime in which a boy goes to a school and he is surrounded by the flowers boys of the school, but nothing really rolls around yaoi, is an anime with a light comedy and that revolves around 3 or 4 minutes of duration, the art is practically the same as the hellshake yano
Is anyone aware of this anime?

Popuko's female voice was awesome in this episode XD

The first scene was the first thing that made me really laugh with this anime after some time.

I didn't have time to look for it earlier. But for anyone who cares, here's Kotaro Sudo's explanation of why they repeat the show with different voices:



tl;dr: bkub wanted to do an optional male audio track, but they couldn't do that for technical reasons, and they couldn't think of another 15-min episode to pair with it.
...but then again, I unironically like Warau Salesman.

There were more recognizable references here and a lot of funny skits this week too, with the female voice actors sounding really adorable ♥

I love the documentary drawing style of story telling. It's amazing how they can flip any page or side and they still can continue talking the story.

Truly professionals!

Repeat episode 7 features Petit Milady (Yuki Aoi & Taketatsu Ayana) / Hayami Sho & Nakata Joji.

Nothing change visually. But we get a premium version of Hellshake Yano skit with sound effects, crowd noises, guitar solo sounds and stuff! Having Hayami as Hellshake Yano and Nakata as the manager, the narrator is also a big plus.

Aoi corpsing during Pop Team Cooking skit is also funny.

That guitar solo bit was actually incredibly impressive. I wonder how long it took them to get that down correctly. 

Also every time Popuko spoke, all I could hear was Chi..
