"This taste...

is the taste of a liar!"
So this is great and I hope they keep the episode intros and post credits previews for Girldrop as the series continues, and that's all the bits of story anyone gets unless they read the "manga".

Either they'll make a real, honest to Christ manga for it or it'll be a Pop Team Epic manga in disguise.

sure hope no-one throws me off a bridge

I kinda hope they never even mention Girldrop again, because creating an entire opening including song only to just completely ignore it would be exactly the sort of ridiculousness Pop Team Epic thrives on.

If this happens it should be the infamous honk honk one. That's basically all I know about touhou.

If it's the announcement that came out near when the anime started airing, then it's going to be one of those multi-artist comic anthologies, and even odds on it actually being a Pop Team Epic one.
The guy who typesets all those fan-translations of the PTE comic on Tumblr (sirlorence) got a hold of a copy. It's apparently not a trojan horse for Pop Team Epic, for once. It's a collection of unconnected Hoshiro Girldrop stories by different artists. And also bkub.

The closest acceptable translation is
"die properly"
Oh shoot, I completely forgot that came out a few days ago. I'll have to get one next time I go into town.

Second episode is incredible. I'll just say they keep up the same-episode-with-different-VAs gimmick but to even greater effect, and AC-bu is in top form.

You know how fansubs have often been criticized of putting in profanity that doesn't exist in the original? Crunchyroll are turning that trope on the head and removing profanity that does exist in the original.

Kinda annoyed that they're using the "repeat the first half with different voices" thing as something for the entire show and not just the first episode, feels kinda lazy, like they realized they didn't have enough content(and/or budget) for 12 full episodes so divided 6 episodes of 2 segments into 12 by doing the repetition gag

Some of the gags are changed the second time around.

I hope they mix it up mid season and suddenly all the episodes or at least one isn't a repeat just to mess with us.

Counterpoint: it's good.

I kind of love the lengths it goes to to in order to make a joke. Things like the sound leveling being all hosed during the VA recording bit.

The part where they show the ghost girl floating in the recording booth, only to zoom in on Popuko and Pipimi hiding underneath the chairs was my second-most favorite gag of the episode. Them showing another ghost girl underneath the chairs on the second go, only to show Popuko and Pipimi in her mouth was my favorite.

This, the second time is probably the hardest I've laughed at an anime in a long time.

EDIT - Any screenshots lying around of translations of all the fortunes they showed?
