But bro
That's what a large chunk of the manga is isn't it? Either to something really obscure, current events, or "member that"
And a lot of that which isn't can be grouped into "hey look isn't it absurd for high school girls to be doing this" or "look at these girls being foul mouthed!" or "check out this funny face", often in combination
Not saying that makes up 100% of the content of the mango but it's very prominent
What I'm saying is, a lot of people have been saying it's shit, yet it's not very different from the 4koma and yet they enjoy that. Really what people don't enjoy, I think, is seeing it as an adaption where you get a fuckton of this type of humor back to back with no breaks. It's like Robot Chicken, which a lot of people think is trash too. But people like myself love. This type of content need breaks in between as not to become too dense. You know like intermissions.
In Robot Chicken this could be 10 seconds of just a Bigfoot driving down the street in an open top car wearing a trucker hat. Absolutely not funny but it gives you a comedic palette cleanser for the next, actual sketch.
But in Pop, you get Pipimi starring in the opening scene of Skyrim
Basically, the Pop Team Epic anime isn't bad, it's just different
Kind of like how Lego Batman isn't Batman even though it's called Batman knowhatimsayin
