I think the point is that it's the same pose which is pretty hard to dispute. Unless the skirt magically grows later and Youko manages to find her inner Cool Beauty, it may as well be the same scene which isn't encouraging.

All that aside, I'm still going to watch this until the end. They're going to have to Try to ruin this in order for me to stop in the middle of the season.

Wait you haven't read it but you're here? Stop whatever you're doing and read the manga. It's a little rough at first (still better than the anime), but once it hits its stride, it never stops being amazing.

In my experience this sort of thing ruins the experience of the anime/movie. I know when I read The Bourne Identity and then saw the movie I was immensely disappointed. After a few years as the memory of the book faded I was able to enjoy the movie. If I were to redo this, I would watch the movie and then read the book- which is now my general policy.

And this is why I watch anime before reading manga. I thought it was great.

Maybe it's more akin to inside humor, but the "powerpoint show" complete with overdramatic music was what really clinched it for me. It felt like they were going for a memorial kind of feel, and I almost fell off the couch from laughing at the stupidity. If they had to skimp on animation somewhere I'm kind of glad it went to a gag like this instead of somewhere else.
