Why It's A Side of Too Much Fries

1. Much like "Everyone Knows It's Bendy" (from Foster Home For Imaginary Friends), this episode is infamous for being extremely mean-spirited and unpleasant in an otherwise light-hearted comedy show such as Powerpuff Girls Z, due to how Sakamoto grosses out the girls.
   • Speaking of which, Similar to Bendy from Foster Home For Imaginary Friends. Sakamoto himself is a horrible and unlikable character, just like Mojo Jojo and Princess Morbucks. He a male example of the "mean popular boy" trope.
   • Sakamoto can be seen as the anime verison of Jared Shaprio.
2. Sakamoto bullies everyone throughout the episode. For example, he uses a spider to gross out the girls for fun.
3. This is likely because Japan has different views on what is acceptable and what is NOT acceptable for audiences compared to other countries like Australia, Brazil or Latin American territories.
4. When Mojo Jojo came to the restaurant, he started to count fries, then he gets very upset and starts a rampage on the city just only because he missed one and he is bad at counting.
5. Sakamoto has a date with Bubbles and Buttercup, but it is considered a toxic date since Bubbles and Buttercup don't trust this guy at all.
6. For some reason, Mokoko always dreams of Sakamoto where she goes on a date with him, despite him being toxic.
7. Sakamoto always tricks the girls with his mean-spirited behavior, like he puts frogs on Bubbles stuff and prank her that he claims that he was innocent, and then he put bugs and other creepy stuff to Buttercup's locker.
8. Sakamoto's smile looks creepy when he became a villain trickster.
9. Momoko and Sakamoto's relationship does make Bubbles and Buttercup freak out where she does not trust that.
10. Sakamoto was basically a even more mean-spirited bully than Princess Morbucks, in fact, he does prank Morbucks which makes her mad and call her guards to beat Sakamoto up.
11. The scene where Mojo Jojo counts fries could be counted as filler.
12. Dumb Ending: Sakamoto continues to bully Momoko and continues to act like this.

Redeeming Qualities

1. The other students were not all bad and they could be interesting lab partners than Sakamoto.
2. Momoko's daydream with Sakamoto can be delightful, where Sakamoto dates Momoko at the flowers and the beach.
3. Bubbles, Buttercup and Professor were likable. Mojo Jojo and Princess Morbucks, while still unlikable, are far more better than Sakamoto.
   • Princess Morbucks thankfully did not act like a villain, instead she stopped Sakamoto from being unpolite.
4. At least Sakamoto does get his comeuppance for his actions by being beaten up by Morbucks' guards and later on on the episode, being scolded.
5. Thankfully, this episode didn't air in the United States and Canada, where the episode was not acceptable for a certain audience.
