Okawa launched the Pop Team Epic comedy manga on Takeshobo's Manga Life Win website in 2014 and ended it in 2015. Ōkawa launched the "second season" of the manga in February 2016 and ended it in April 2017. The manga started a "third season" in October 2017 and ended in January 2019. The series then continued with a "fourth season" that also ended in January 2019.
The manga's television anime series premiered in January 2018. HIDIVE, Funimation, Crunchyroll, AsianCrush, and Amazon Prime Video all streamed the anime as it aired in Japan. Adult Swim's Toonami block began airing the anime in June 2018. The anime's second series will premiere in October.
Okawa launched a "new series" titled Poputan on Manga Life Win in October 2019. The manga centers on the "completely new characters" Poputan and Pipitan. The website lists the manga separately from Pop Team Epic.
