Absolutely. I loved Bossun's face when he found out he was the oldest AND when they were sooo bashful with each other. CUTE!

Touching and sweet arc.

omg bossun has a twin brother!! :') When he started to cry at the end that was just so cute.. he's not alone anymore..! I really hope Tsubaki & Bossun start to become closer like real brothers.. not like super duper fast but maybe one day they can really be comfortable with each other (:
The similarities in their faces & actions at the end were so funny ^^

Honestly the twin thing kind of bugged me but I hope that it's not ignored in the rest of the series. If something doesn't come of it and it just get ignored I'll be even more annoyed.

Tsubaki and Bossun are so adorable, I can't even.

This was an amazing arc. I started to tear up at the part where Haru was dying and where Bossun started to cry. The end made me laugh so much. Also that Bossun x Himeko moment was much appreciated.I expected that they would show the dinner, so being a not manga reader, I wanted that scene to happen so badly.

I called that Tsubaki was his brother when Tsubaki's dad said the word siblings. I literally said "Tsubaki, right?"

next week, we'll find out that Bossun's parents came from another planet where they were royalty....now Tsubaki and Bossun must fight to death to see who will be King!!!

See...I'm a great writer just like the Sket Dance mangaka :D

Funny thing is, they already did an episode where Tsubaki's an alien and Bossun was going to rescue his planet.

Ahh man this was awesome, it made me cry yet at the same time happy for both of them, knowing they're not alone and still have each other in the end :)

The character background story's are amazing if you ask me, I like Himeko's a lot, Switch was way too sad but Bossun (and Tsubaki) story is just perfect.

Really great episode, it was quite shocking. Never expected them to be brother
wow. If only I hadn't been spoiled before this ep. T_T

Now I know why Shinpachi in Gintama x sket dance cross over said "why don't you get a twin brother". XD
I was at loss that time.

I haven't watched this show in several months, really. But this was the most surprising episode for me together with the ones when we got told Switch's story. Now I get why, of all times, we got told Bossun's story in the previous episodes. At least the resemblance between Tsubaki and Bossun got explained.

But anyway, contrary to many people's opinions I still think that Bossun's story isn't as great as Switch's. In the very least they share equal place.

rewatched Bossun's arc just because I can't sleep...

eventhough it's a cliche in a lot of ways... I still really enjoyed it :D

I get every bit of feeling people on those situations have T_T

now... SKET DANCE Season 2 please!!

I loved this arc. I pretty much had a hunch, though. When Bossun saves that guy by the river, they looked pretty similar, although I didn't think of any relations between them. However, this episode just confirmed that, they were pretty similar because they are twins.

Amazing episode! If it hadn't already been spoiled for me I would've been so surprised about Tsubaki. I'm loving the back stories of the main trio, Bossun's is my favourite, followed by Himeko's. Switch's was also pretty good.

An Incredibly Strong Arc.

I was certain that Switch's backstory would be the Jewel of the series, and Himeko's arc didn't give me any reason to change that assumption.. But this was like an explosion of power that transcended even Switch's arc. Sket Dance has reached the pinnacle of its potential with this Arc, and in conjunction with Switch Arc the show has reached a height I could never have predicted.

In summation, I can no longer claim with certainty that Sket Dance isn't as strong as Gintama. At this point it's broken away from Gintama's shadow, and has become a PowerHouse in its own right. Truly one of the greats, and criminally underrated.

(As an aside the spoilers in this series Forum Discussion are the worst I've ever seen on any forum here on Mal, and by a significant margin. If a Mod could go through some of the episode discussions and edit the countless brother spoilers etc from the annoying manga readers, that would be greatly appreciated by future viewers.)

Cheezus that was sad. Seriously this anime. So many feels. This was just as sad as Switch's arc but it felt lighter. He lost both his parents and was kept away from his brother for his entire life, but there was still a sense of love and happiness in it. Not just in that they were able to accept their past but that their birth had meaning and all of their actions and views on life were inherited. Left and Right, opposites but both related. Each one supporting each other. Boom! Mind blown... But for Switch's story he never got that happy ending that both himeko and boss got. It ended on a sad note, he blamed himself for his brother death. He is so depressed that he was unable to and still is unable to speak and to top it all off he lost the girl he loved. BAH! SO many more episodes to go. I hope all the gaps are filled in! lol

OMFG, unexpected another hidden secrets untold... Tsubaki's stepfather told to Boussun about his mother words...and unexpected twins are born, only one could care...separate. That means... Boussun is still have a family as a shared blood which is Tsubaki! Twin brothers! I cannot believe it O_____O this is very great! I'm so super shocked and bit disappointment. Hopefully both of them will bond together.

And I saw a one parody scene... The Maid Cafe! o-o omg.. from the anime of Maid-Sama. HAHAHAHA Yabawasa is wearing a maid outfit looks funny same as Hime, also what a cute butler/waiter to Switch like omg <3

Wow srsly I really though this anime was bullshit and a big crap.

Until tears hit my eyes... dude wtf... this anime could had been so much better, yet it still got me hooked this long after I had watched over +700series, so I guess it wasn't that bad either.
Even though I nearly drop it twice, all that made me watch it was indeed all thx to Himeko... but somewhat Im glad I keeped watching it till now, was worthy the long streak of bs episodes.

Indeed this was a good anime, I would be happy if it had ended here.

Gotta give this series props, it answered all the questions I had after the last two episodes. Since Tsubaki's parents never met Ryosuke and Haru together, I wonder if there'll be an episode when Tsubaki does come over for dinner and is shown the pictures and videos of Haru and Ryosuke. Them wishing each other happy birthday at the end was a nice touch too.

I love how open Bossun to his friends..
I have some rather similar 'backstory' like Bossun, but I never tell my friends about it.. I don't know if that is because I have not yet found friends worthy enough for me to tell something like that, or is that only because of my character (who think that talking about something like that to friends is unnecessary), or is it only because I am coward enough to be a really opened friend to my friends..

By the way, I am going to rank backstories of my character.. Bossun=Switch>Himeko ... I am really agree about Switch who is yet to find his happy ending ...
