| saaaaaaaad ep :'( |
| Oh. My. God. Un-expected much? Had to break out the kleenex. But, it was sweet to see Bossun's hand at the end; Made me feel warm inside. :3 Ugh, need to find something overly happy to watch now. Beautiful episode though. |
 |
| That was amazing. . . . .the older "Switch" is now my favorite character. 5/5 |
| wow haven't seen this much likes before....amazing!! |
 |
| just realized that Switch's Seiyu is Gin's Seiyu... EPIC, btw when's the crossover sked dan version? gintama's crossover was out last week right? |
| *cries her eyes out I knew it was gonig to be sad since I've read the manga but damn the tears ... x.x |
   |
| holy sh*t. amazing episode. so sad and so moving...<333 |
  |
| I NEVER expected this from Sket Dance. I'm completely shocked over how serious this episode was....I cried pretty hard. Him combining the two voices..that's some powerful stuff right there. Swiiiiitch. T_T |
| I couldn't get it out of the back of my head that switch was just making up his "story", so I didn't really enjoy it as much as I should have. I don't know about being all about comedy then suddenly switching to heavy drama, that just makes me think that the heavy drama is actually a long drawn out joke/troll. |
| Saw this episode this afternoon. Just wow... amazing. So serious, sad and emotional. Great episode for sket dance. |
 |
| Awesome back story for Switch .. This def wasn't a Sket Dance type episode but it cool how they can be serious And it made it all the better I might actually have to read the manga now |

| I never would have expected a character from a gag/comedy anime to have such a sad, deep, and complicated backstory. Just confirms that Sket Dance works better as a drama than a comedy. |
| Wow, amazing amazing! |
| That was a great episode, so sad though. I wonder what Himeko and Bossun's stories are like. |
| 夜露死苦 http://mochichandiscoversjapan.wordpress.com/ Visit my Japan adventures' blog. =3 |
| I swear to god, I was not expecting that. My mind was blown from that. But it was very sad, poor little switch and big switch. That is seriously sad. But one good point is that the anime team did an awesome job on that episode! |
| I love Switch from the very start, so.. when I watched this episode... I cried so hard. It's so unexpected,, I swear if I was there, I'll hug Switch (Kazuyoshi) tightly. I can't stand to see Switch cried like that, god, it's so painful :"( |
 |
| That was amazing, I never expected switch to have such a dark past... This episodes was totally different from other episodes, and I loved the ED. And I still can't get over how different a person Kazuyoshi was before he joined the Sket-dan. 5/5 I wonder if we'll get to see the other main character's back story |

| Didn't expect that girl to be the one that kill the bro...and i thought annoucing his death was not really well done. I got that "huh? he's dead by a stab in the stomach with a short knife?". I mean that's possible...but all we know is he died just like that :( Btw, i knew the an-chan is the current switch now. I mean its pretty obvious since the start. |
| Really moving episode, I didn't expect this from Sket Dance. Who'd think that Switch hides such a past? I thought that Kazuyoshi will be the one to die and then his little brother will live with tragic memories, but it turned out to be the vice-versia. Now I like more Switch, knowing who he really is, I really didn't like him when he was just computer voice without any emotions behind it. At first, when the student council's president talked to Bossun about his reason to create Sket Dance, and he hinted that Yusuke must've had something serious behind it, I thought it was just a joke... because Sket Dance is obviously gag anime. This is why this episode surprised me. Kazoyushi has something really serious behind himself, so it's not impossible for Bossun to show moving story too. Considering Kazuyoshi - he really looked like Kinji from Hidan no Aria before he changed himself. And now I think there's a reason for which he likes so much dramatic anime. I really feel different about watching Sket Dance now. Once an anime gets a background story, no matter of it's kind, it goes on a next level. |
  |
| Holy fuck. I never expected this show to go so dark. Damn is that powerful. |
| 0_0 That was the first time I said h**y s**t in this anime. I cannot believe that happened. Also when he said " I loved you" and Sawa said "Me too" did she said it to Switch or to Usui? |
 |
| Now I think about it, I've never seen switch actually cry or laugh or having any real emotions. He always has the "serious business/poker"face. |
| Whoa that was deep, Switch sure has some issues. |
| Glad that the reason why he stopped speaking was revealed. |
| This episodes was totally different from other episodes, 5/5. Switch T_T |
| IF YOU DIDN'T FUCKING BAWL YOUR EYES OUT, YOU'RE A HEARTLESS BASTARD!! WHERE THE HELL DID THIS COME FROM?! I CAN'T FUCKING STOP CRYING!!!!!! POOR SWITCH!!!! :"( |
 |
| Damn, this was one roller coaster ride of emotions. They did a really good job at presenting Kazuyoshi's backstory. Feels a bit like the backstory arcs in Gintama: very deep and moving. |
| So damn sad T.T |
| That was powerful stuff. Sawa and Switch (older brother) were so cute too... |
 |
| at first i was confuse on who's Switch hmm i know we'll know why Switch talks using him laptop eventually, but i never expect it to be this saaaad~ i admit i shed my tears on this one T__T i pity you Usui.. |
 |
| My gosh, didn't expect Switch to have this sorta backstory. What a freaking powerful episode. *sheds a tear* |

| I cried my eyes out!! I was seriously surprised at what happened there! I didn't think even for a moment Switch was An-chan! and when his little brother was stabbed I was asure he will survive (because he was called Switch). That's what you call a plot twist! |
 |
| I will never look at Switch the same way after this episode... I can't help but to feel sorry every time he appears :( |
|
| Holy shit, this episode was amazing. Switch's story (2 episode arc) was quite touching imo. I did not expect this from Sket Dance at all. Wow, just wow amazing. Going to re-watch later this year. 5/5 The way that those three lived together and hoped to see fireworks as friends was ruined by Yukino. It's sad that a single piece of metal (the knife) can change so much in a person's life. It's just a tool but became a weapon of sorrow..which bought towards the two loving brothers. And in the end, it made Switch lose his ability to speak and his reliance on that computer. Wow, just wow. This episode was fucking amazing. Rest in Peace, Switch. Rest in Peace.  |
 |
| Man that was so sad and depressing :( Poor Usui..best ep yet! Episode: 100/5 |
| Wow..what an amazing episode. Loved it so much. |

| damn |
 |
| finally know why he's stop speaking. i thought its just to make himself cool. but i see its a difficult past. im sure he's still depressed because of that past. i hope there's another episode about him and sawa! but i still dont know why switch ended up as an otaku. |
| Man, I think I shouldn't read around discussions too much. With all the hype behind the episode, I was expecting at every step for something extremely emotional to happen. Just think it would have been better to been caught more off-guard, but still, that was quite something. So sad... It's also nice in a way, though, how he ended up. Carrying his brother's spirit and all. And now he's all witty and urbane. You can never change the past, but you can always move on even without forgetting those close to you. I just hope by the end of the show he can at least meet Sawa again... I have a question, though... That scene where the new Switch wakes up the next morning and heads out. He stops before the door and it seems to foreshadow like a heart attack or such? I understand things like that can cause heart pain, but was that really all there was to that scene? Just seemed to come out of nowhere and never mentioned again. |

| Use power for the right things. At least for the things that you believe in. |
| It's always sad when a little brother passes away, and even more so here as the audience is led to think it's the older brother that will be disappear. Well done. Claxus said: I think it's just here to show his grief, since they tell a bit later that he didn't cry at the funeral. Like it's having an impact even then.I have a question, though... That scene where the new Switch wakes up the next morning and heads out. He stops before the door and it seems to foreshadow like a heart attack or such?

| I've (greatly) enjoyed Sket Dance to this point, but viewed it as a Poor Man's Gintama (which is highly praiseworthy). This episode trumps anything from Gintama, and is one of the best I have ever seen. I was too shocked and enthralled while watching to shed tears, but a few minutes later it hit me... 9001/5 |
| he was too depressed that he was unable to talk. I love you switch. |
| The ratings of this episode, still make me so happy... One of the best rated episodes ever? |
