It's something I'm going to look into.

Voice actors, according to /a/:

Part A: Megumi Han and Mariya Ise (Gon and Killua, returning from the special)

Part B: Shinji Ishide/Hiroya Ishimaru (Jackie Chan dub actor) and Kenji Noda/Yลซ Mizushima (Sammo Hung dub actor)

The picture the Pop Team Epic author drew that Megumi and Mariya referenced in the end portion: https://twitter[dot]com/bkub_comic/status/1530932753562480640

The train battle segment was done by Flat Studio. The character design was done by loundraw, who also worked on Vivy and I Want To Eat Your Pancreas. Watch Summer Ghost if you want to see more of their work.

I knew I recognized those voices! Makes sense know why they did better on the train scene lol, you can just hear gon and killua when popuko or pipimi yells or gets serious in this episode

lol Square Enix mention in the title creates expectations
old-ass 80s maybe-MSX maybe-Famicom Japan exclusive detective game that less than 1% of nerds know existed... found it! The Portopia Serial Murder Case / ใƒใƒผใƒˆใƒ”ใ‚ข้€ฃ็ถšๆฎบไบบไบ‹ไปถ, 1983, both on Famicom and MSX, and a bunch of other pre-pc computers. Developed by Chunsoft, published by Enix, glommed up by Square twenty years later when they merged into Square Enix, nineteen years ago.

When they did the Woodman thing they said "ii-ne", and the subtitles translated to "nice". This is accurate, but "ii-ne" (well, ใ€Œใ„ใ„ใญ๏ผใ€) is also the "Like" button on Japanese social media. In context, especially with the thumbs up, I think they meant "LIKE!"

For reference, Portopia was created by a novice game designer by the name of Yuji Horii. He would go on to make a video game based on western tabletop RPGs. Something about dragons and quests, I believe.

Portopia also influenced a man to get into the video game industry. His name is Hideo Kojima, and I think he made a game about metal gears? Nowadays he makes games about ropes and tweets about Lycoris Recoil.

I just happened to download a scan of the first Famitsu issue out of curiosity and like the second topic after Zelda is Portopia. Glad a 2022 meme anime educated me beforehand
Crazy how back then this work had about the same prestige as working at a convenience store or a McDonalds. The legends we know today were recruited from sketchy job offer papers posted manually on their uni's billboards. I think Kojima's immediate family was hiding it at functions by just saying he works "at an office" or something lol

Also in the train battle segment. Doctor Yellow is the nickname for a bullet train that would be used for testing the train lines. The trains ensure that the standard gauge track used for Shinkansen services is sufficiently level and stable.

You don't see it very often so people joke about it being an omen of good luck or happiness for you to set eyes on it. That's why Pop-chan was able to win in the end.

The new Hunter X Hunter Train Battle arc looks pretty neat!
I see Popuko has mastered the Vegeta's Technique as well.

I wonder who won the battle of dumbass personalities though. They both looked pretty even.
