Sket Dance
Sket Dance revolves around the adventures of three individuals (Bossun, Himeko, Switch) and their efforts in a unique high school club. This club thrives on helping others with their day to day problems, Sket being an acronym meaning Support, Kindness, Encouragement, and Troubleshoot. Lots of hilarity ensues, but at the end of the day, these folks always succeed at helping those in need.
Genre: Slice of Life, Comedy, High School Life
What to Expect: An anime with a relaxed atmosphere, with humor at the forefront. Often, the episodes are divided into two "mini-episodes" each with separate plots. Generally, the daily antics of the club serve as our main focus point in the story. New characters are often introduced by approaching Sket Dance with a problem, and our lovable trio tries their hardest to tackle whatever the task is at hand. This is not quite a gag comedy, there are some serious and dramatic moments to be found. Though if you are looking for romance, this title only hints on it subtly, and is not a main focus. Above all, the characters and their personalities tend to grow with you over time. Even characters that seemed minor a one point, can reappear and have a prominent role. Overall, a lighthearted show with its touching moments.
How is this Inspirational?
Throughout the course of the anime, we are shown the importance of friendships, how meaningful they can be, and how they mature over time, just like anything else. A club and those within it that dedicate their free time simply to help others, volunteering out of the kindness in their heart. Sket Dance has its share of emotionally powerful scenes that can really connect to the viewer. How one's path and course in life can change so drastically by reforming oneself for the better. Many scenes like these are hidden like a precious gem, waiting to be uncovered. That is the power of having comedy as the main focus. When the tone of a given situation turns to the serious side, it really draws our attention and effects us.
