1* ActorAllusion:
2** In the crossovers with ''Manga/{{Gintama}}'', the Yorozuya and the Sket Dan [[BreakingTheFourthWall made sure]] they were aware about who were their voice actors and their respective roles in each series. In the original manga version of the crossover, Gintoki and Switch realize they sound the same and proceed to call each other [[Creator/TomokazuSugita "Sugita"]] (this is absent in the anime, where both proceed to call each other as "onii-chan").
3** In the first episode, Switch mentions that his favorite [[Manga/{{Bleach}} Visored]] is Muguruma Kensei, who Creator/TomokazuSugita also voices. Later, in episode 31, Switch suggests (with a tone of voice similar to Gintoki) to use a very suspicious white and black outfit.
4* AllStarCast: For a 2010s anime's standards, the cast is full of people that are well known in the industry today. For starters, you have Creator/HiroyukiYoshino, Creator/RyokoShiraishi and Creator/TomokazuSugita as the main characters. And you can extend that with Creator/TomokazuSeki, Creator/YuuKobayashi, Creator/HiroShimono, Creator/FumikoOrikasa, Creator/MarinaInoue... and the large cast of regulars and one time characters like Creator/KanaHanazawa, Creator/NobuyukiHiyama, Creator/AkiraIshida and Creator/JunkoMinagawa.
5* CastingGag:
6** [[Creator/RyokoShiraishi Himeko]] and [[Creator/TomokazuSugita Switch's computer voice]] could be seen as "extensions" from [[Manga/HayateTheCombatButler Hayate]] and [[Manga/{{Gintama}} Gintoki]]. The [[BreakTheFourthWall fourth wall do not survive]].
7** Himeko is not Creator/RyokoShiraishi's first time as a legendary delinquent from Osaka. That honor would be [[VideoGame/{{Tekken}} Asuka]].
8* TheCastShowoff: Episode 71B of the anime has ''Dante fall into enka'', allowing Music/{{Gackt}} to show off his enka skills as Dante ''sings almost every single one of his lines''.
9* CelebrityVoiceActor: Visual Kei singer Music/{{Gackt}} as Dante.
10* TheDanza: One-off character Tetsu is played by Creator/TetsuInada.
11* ExecutiveMeddling: This is why Cherry gets introduced into the series. Roman mentions that his creation was a request from the manga's then-editor to "allow some fanservice" (something that Shinohara often avoided) appear in the series. And, oh boy, the Sket Dan knows that something is going to go wrong when he (and his friends) appears.
12* FirstAppearance: With the difference of exclusive characters in both [[{{Pilot}} one-shots]], and the appearance of the Sket Dan (with minor design differences), Otakura and Yabasawa made their debuts in the first ''Akamaru Jump'' one shot, as well.
13* TheOtherDarrin: There was a different cast used for the Drama [=CDs=] and [=VOMICs=] that got replaced when the anime was greenlit.
14** Tsubaki: Creator/TakahiroSakurai
15** Mimorin: Creator/AtsukoEnomoto
16** Daisy: Creator/AyaEndo
17** Shinba: Creator/KosukeToriumi
18** Captain: Airi Sakuno
19** Dante: Creator/TakashiKondo
20** Yabasawa: Creator/HitomiNabatame
21** Reiko: Creator/YuuKobayashi (Kobayashi would later go on to voice Daisy in the anime)
22** Roman: Creator/AiShimizu
23** Shinzo: Creator/KatsuyukiKonishi
24** Teppei: Creator/SoichiroHoshi
25** Jogasaki: Creator/KentaroIto
26** Chuuma: Hayato Nakata
27** Yamanobe: Jun Konno
28** In the Latin American Spanish dub, the characters from ''Manga/{{Gintama}}'' has different voice actors from the ones from the respective dub of that show; this is partly for two reasons: Firstly, Gintoki's first voice actor, Creator/JesusBarrero, died at 2016, being replaced in this show with Oscar Lopez instead, and finally, the dub of ''Manga/{{Gintama}}'' was done in Cuernavaca, while the one of ''Sket Dance'' is done in Mexico City, causing that the remaining characters, Shinpachi and Kagura, being replaced from Hugo Rodríguez and Marisol Castro respectively to Hector Mena and Elizabeth Infante instead.
