Well, to get our opinions, you should post it. I don't know about the others, but my mindreading ability sure ain't that good.

Skuld:: (still poking him) You are a little short ya know.

Sano:: (just stands there)

Belldandy:: He is kind of short to be Keiichi's replacement (walks up to measurer height)

Sano:: Would you 2 knock it off (stomps foot)?

Skuld:: (stops poking him after he yells) Someone has a temper problem.

Sano:: (glares at Skuld) I do not you little brat

Skuld:: (sticks out tongue)

Belldandy:: There is no need to be angry. This world is a world of love and peace.

Skuld:: (sits down with your head resting in your hands) Here we go again.

Belldandy:: This Earth is full of

Sano:: (Interrupts) Ok enough you are like a social studies teacher. Boring as

Belldandy:: There is no need for such languages here there are people that don't need to hear that from you.

Skuld:: ( Falls over anime style) Oh what's happening is she finally done. I must have dozed off for a sec.

Sano:: How can Keiichi stand to be with you 2?

Skuld:: You mean 3, Urd is on a trip right now.

Sano:: Whatever, The little brat over there is annoying and gets on my nerves too much ( points to Skuld who is picking her noise) And then we have her sister who is all Peace and love. Snore

Belldandy:: You are very rude I think we need to teach you a lesson ( grabs staff)

My advice would be to read it, in character, and time yourself, trying to come under a minute (short and sweet is best). As an audience, I lost interest around the Social Studies teacher part...

Hence I'd say cut the Pokemon/Yu-Gi-Oh parts and try to shorten it, making all lines count as punchlines. Funny skits are hard to write as you need to keep the momentum -and the jokes- coming. x__X

I agree that it's too long, and like Rosiel, I started to wander off around the social-studies line. You can cut quite a bit of the random bickering and still get your central idea across. I tend to watch more masquerades than I participate in, and as an audience member, my main complaint is almost always that skits go on long after they've made their point and shown their costumes. Short and sweet is always best, especially in skits that want to be funny.
