The comedy has more misses than hits this time; it reminds now that as a spinoff, it won’t reproduce Sorachi’s brand of humor all the time. I think it’s because the skit should take half an episode instead of the full length.

However, it’s compensated by the class’s efforts to give both Shinpachi and Otae a proper sendoff. It’s touching that they want to see the former’s straight man act one last time. He also unwittingly fulfilled his wish not to transfer just by being himself (and giving his “aunt” the push to confess to her crush and later get married).

I just realized way too late, Otae is way older than Shinpachi, but why are they both in 3-Z?
