streaming Pop Team Epic Repeat as it airs in Japan.

Crunchyroll describes the series:

Crude, rude, and a little…cute? Get ready for the larger-than-life attitude of Popuko and Pipimi, the small and tall stars of Pop Team Epic! Based off the bizarre four- webcomic by Bukubu Ōkawa comes a comedy that'll throw you off with its out-there jokes and intense absurdity. You think you're ready for these girls? Think again, F#%**er!

The original broadcast of the first series featured Noriko Hidaka as Popuko and Pipimi in the second half.

The first television anime series premiered in January 2018. HIDIVE, Funimation, Crunchyroll, streaming the anime in the United States in February 2020, but originally with only half of each episode available. Netflix has since reed the full versions of each episode.

The original anime's full episodes are each 23 minutes long. Each episode has two main parts with much of the same content. The two parts have different voice actors, as well as some different content such as altered jokes.

The anime adapts a surreal four- manga by Bkub Okawa that centers around two 14-year-old girls, the short Popuko and the tall Pipimi.
