SKET DANCE - Season 1 - Eps 1: The Academy SKETs
A transfer student arrives on campus, and the three members of the SKET-dan introduce themselves, hoping the new student will join, but he politely declines. He returns soon after, covered in red paint as the apparent victim of bullying, asking the group for help. After investigating, they discover the culprit is actually the transfer student himself, who was operating under duress from the school bully and childhood acquaintance. After setting things straight, the new student is able to fit in comfortably at the school, and the members of SKET-dan look forward to their next task.
