Pop Team Epic, the four-panel gag manga by Bkub Okawa, will be on hiatus as of October 17, 2023. The cause for the pause in the series is officially “unforeseen circumstances,” though the exact details were not explained. It has not been decided how long this hiatus will last.

Manga Life Win is a webcomic site where Pop Team Epic can be read in Japan. There is no indication in the post as to what circumstances are at play that are causing the production to be paused. However, the creator Bkub Okawa posted an update on his social media account reassuring readers that updates will resume, but he asked people to wait a while as he was feeling ill until recently.

The manga Pop Team Epic will be on an indefinite hiatus starting in October 2023. You can stream the original anime and Pop Team Epic Repeat on Crunchyroll. The manga has been localized for the English-speaking market by Kodansha.
