Plot

Welcome to the Weekly Sket Dance report! Last week's episode was a serious one where we learned about Kiri's origin story. Though, the anime did not go along with the manga's storyline. We missed some precious details. This week's episode is a funny one, and I find it predictable that Sket Dan would go from serious to comic relief.

Katou Kiri has become Tsubaki's loyal retainer, but will the young ninja learn to work together with his other Student Council colleagues in order to build a better academy? Then, the Sket-dan teams up with the Student Council to cure Usami of her hatred for all men... and it involves more than one kind of cross-dressing...

Verdict

Beware of spoilers!

Good

Kiri and Hani have another episode dedicated to them since episode 72. Though, Kiri had more spotlight than Hani. If you're a fan of either of these characters, you'll enjoy the episode.
Kiri Kato's quirkyness is his sheer devotion in protecting Tsubaki and following his orders. Scenes of him wanting to punish the girls and serving them makes him an amusing character.
The cross dressing scene is entertaining. With Kiri and Sasuke adding random words, Bossun and Switch's acting is great. I just like how it complements Himeko's group and beating them.

Bad

For you folks, one story will be better than the other in these types of episodes. I find Kiri's story more boring than Hani's story.
Manga Differences: For fans want the show to be faithful, they will be disappointed since the anime skips the Falken Incident where the Sket Dan have to occupy the same room with the student council due to the burned down Sket Dan clubroom.
Fan Service: It's not that good that Mimori is just an eye candy character. Shows like Binbogami Ga! makes fan service amusing, but Sket Dance cannot make the fan service entertaining. The show does not need it since it feels out of place.

Plus, if this show gets dub in America, the show will get in trouble with the younger audience. The animation is pretty strange in this episode. Some scenes have faces look distorted a bit. I can't blame the series since they're working hard to provide a new episode each week.

Overall, it's a decent episode since its humor falls short due to an intense episode last week. For those who want more Kiri and Hani, this episode is good for you.
