I feel like a lot of the shogi segment was references I didn't get.

Hikaru no Go Shogi was absolutely fantastic. XD
Speaking of which I need to go read the manga for it since I've only seen the anime.

KIII MII NOOO NAAA WAAAA!!
My God that was glorious, how did I never realize that Kimi no na Wa goes so well as a chant. XDD

DYMLOS!!!

I don't know why but I laughed when I heard Yuki Kaji in the second half. xD

This week was bland, bob epic team wasn't that fucked up as always. Liked Heihachi's reference.

Was Hiro Shimono voicing Popuko in male version?

That shogi segment was simply the best. The Dragon Ball Z reference was pretty good. The youtube subscribe part was funny and scary.

This was a shitty episode, I guess I didn't get most of the parody stuff in the episode, it is starting to feel like a chore to watch these episodes every week tbh.

Can someone explain the Hellshake Yano part?

Now I see that Poputepipikku's true charm is being short. I don't really like those longer skits, they're not funny at all. Well, for me.
The best part was upgraded (or should I say "Bobteamgraded?") blanket skit. It sums up my life.
And I loved Popuko voiced by Hiro Shimono, she sounded so cute, not like angry short monster she usually is at all!

Very good episode after last week's disappointment. Loved the seiyuus this time around. Also them screwing up the intermissions toward the end gave me a giggle. "Sorry, my voice cracked" lol

Sometimes you just gotta realize that you can't watch every
anime you want to. The struggle is far too real for that.

So today male seiyuu is Connie and Eren of SnK eh?
Shame they dont having Seki tomokazu said "DYMLOSSSSSSSSS" here, having hope the male voice is him when see the tales of destiny reference at female voice section.

And btw is that the real seiyuu of Heihachi voicing the "Heihachi Tekken wannabe" character?

This episode was definitely one of the weakest so far, alongside last week's episode - it's becoming pretty clear that pop team epic shines best when the skits are short. While the shogi bit was funny at times, cutting the length in half (maybe by removing one of the top four?) would have made the episode much better overall.

I didn't recognize the female seiyuu. A lot of shows they were in are ones I didn't see, or dropped,

The male seiyuu were less obscure to me, though I had trouble identifying Yuuki Kaji until pretty much the end, when he raised his voice. Though the differences were minimal, I think their segment was (slightly) better.

I like how Bob Epic Team expanded on the blanket joke that was made a few episodes ago. The first skit went completely over my head, though.

I agree that this was a bit of a weaker episode. Even seemed shorter than it was. Maybe once I get all the references, this episode will grow on me.

BTW, the tower climbing segment seems like a shoutout to Final Fantasy 7, where Yuffie climbs the Wutai pagoda to fight increasingly tougher bosses and learn the truth once she gets to the top.

Well one of the jokes I found great is that they made fun of how the female commentator of shogi and go matches always say exactly the same thing as the male one followed by "desu ne". It's funny cause it's true.

What is this Ryuuou no Oshigoto? It looks like it's becoming the norm to include one long skit at the beginning. I think I'd rather have more random clips than these long ones though.

I liked this one, I still think episode 3 was the weakest episode so far.

Paladin...Demon Hunter...we're talking Diablo III right?

I feel sorry for the commentators, especially the female one repeating what the guy says. It's sad because it's true. It's like they have nothing else to talk about.

Cyber Heihachi...why do I feel that that's going to be a plot point to Tekken 8 because Heihachi never dies? Speaking of Tekken, the background music during Heihachi's segment...did that come from Tekken?

KI...MI...NO...NA....WA!!! Welp that's never leaving my head now XD.

A Tales of Destiny reference? Here?! Do you know how old and niche that game is? And it got a reference?!

Hikaru no Go shogi version lol. Wished it was a bit shorter though, wanted to hear more of Popuko and Pipimi male version.

Right when Shimono Hiro said Popuko's first word, I knew Pipimi would be voiced by Kajikaji. VA fans would expect no other pairing XD Shimono Hiro and Kaji is like Sugitan and Nakamura Yuuichi, they're hilarious together. Seriously leave it up to Hirotan to crack his voice LOL

perhaps the reason why this episode is more boring to some people is because there aren't things like the French/8-bit/singing dolls, which got shafted in favor of the shogi part. Kind of a shame though, I sort of missed them(especially the singing dolls).

it had a good start and a nice format; and now the format is the same, but the skits are not funny. i don't have a tendency of dropping things mid-season, that's why i'll continue watching it, hoping it'll get better somehow

While this episode may be short, it was pretty entertaining imo. Gotta say its a weak one, but probably not the weakest episode in the anime (I think 4 was the weakest since I didn't get the references but episode 5 saved me).

I do think PTE would be better if they removed those long skits. Each episode felt shorter because of it.

I guess I've missed a lot of references, but it was still fun to watch! Didn't expect Heihachi to make an appearance, lol.

It was also nice how Hiro slipped in the karaage reference. Yet again I won't be able to get that song out of my head.

when you say that it's really funny, i just can't think of any reason other than there's probably a whole bunch of references that i don't get, for example:
i don't get this part at all


the shogi segment probably had a shit ton of them too, i got only heihachi and kamehameha

the DYMLOS! scene too, it's from a game Tales of Destiny, but i had to google it up just to get this shallow reference, it's no fun this way



and this ..?


ps. all these references are from ep. 6 though
