I guess it was true, nothing will be the same in Gintama anymore. I mean yeah we had our share of epic arcs before, but shit just got real this time around. Everything was great, I liked the new visuals for OP, the animation, the music... That Hijikata/Mustang scene though. I'm really curious about what'll happen from now on.

I smiled at the end tho, BECAUSE ZURA. YEAH. FINALLY. <3 I don't know why but when I see the guy I feel like everything'll be alright lol.

Truly a masterpice. I just caught up with the anime and now i understand the pain you guys must have been through while waiting 1 week for the next episode.

And Nobume knows about Gintoki more than he thinks since if i recall corectly she also met Shouyou

Everyone is talking about Zura's return, but there is another one I'd like to see again: Hasegawa. I wonder what he will do, especially that it seems, that he's not alone anymore...

Well, anyways good episode, and now Gintama seems to be in "agony" state...

An expression like this sure gets your hopes up for the episode:



If it weren't for the hard-boiled man, I would have been completely depressed. His antics provided a much-needed element of comic relief. Matsudaira's defiance of the new bastard of a shogun was impressive, though it didn't matter much in the end. However, seeing Kondo's head like that and his parting with Shigeshige and Gintoki...

An excellent episode.

MAN, THAT EPISODE SURE WAS HILARIOUS!!! HAHAHA!!




:(

Shit just got depressing. But hey, depressing Gintama is as good as hilarious Gintama, so why not?

The new OP visual is really good. I mean, we all expected it, but I was still a little bit anxious that they wouldn't change it.

Goddamn, serious Gorilla is always so cool. Kondo is underappreciated character :|
It was touching to see Gintoki and Kondo sharing a moment like that.

Right off the bat this arc starts off in such a way that gets you pumped instantly. Man Kondo, why do you have to be such a creep when it comes to romance? Because otherwise I really enjoy his character and how much he cares for everyone else.

It will be interesting to see how things develop from here as it looks like Katsura finally makes his return next week.

I'm pretty sure the Gintama anime is stopping at the end of March with 52 episodes since the arc after this is still going on. My bet is that there will be a "Gintama Final" anime once the manga reaches its conclusion. Hopefully there will be some special OVAS coming around soon on the comedic arcs that were skipped as well. Kind of sad that we are now in a "point of no return" with the story.

We're at the point of no return- the start of Farewell Shinsengumi arc. The start of the episode is very very heavy for my feels. Can't remember when was the last time Gintama started an arc with this very very very serious vibe. The visuals are way better than the Shogun Assassination Arc IMHO

So the vibe this anime gives of, were totally different that it use to be. Not that I hate the current arc but does it mean Gintama might end soon? I mean Shinsegumi play big roles in the story of this series. Is this really goodbye?

Gintoki's face when he was walking with those crutches, he looked devastated.
He'll end someones career when he recovers, he looks quite fucked with those injuries.
OP's visuals changed, it's a great one as always!
So the Shinsengumi got disbanded, they'll never be disbanded. Kondo is a great man.
They will never gain control over Matsudaira and others, they live by their rule, not a fucking puppet who will only obey your commands. Even if he lost Shinsengumi, he hasn't lost a single shit, they will always fight for what they believe in!
Kondo gets caught and Matsudaira as well, shit is about to go so down that it'll never come up again.
Some shits need to get destroyed.
THANK FUCK HIJIKATA WAS HAVING A DREAM
The hard boiled guy appears yesss!!
Whole Edo is in bad shape
Yo that fatass was still in Shinsengumi, good!
That great guitar tune finally returned when Hijikata was talking to the Shinsengumi, "It's raining, huh?"
I love the ED so much and it's visuals roll back the time every week which gives me a felling that doesn't have a name
Brilliant episode, I loved it, This is GinTama and the fire in everyone's eyes will never die.
Katsura is coming in next episode, his promise with the Shogun, it's gonna be top stuff.

I liked Gintama for its humour. I also enjoyed more serious arcs, because they generally ended well. But this? First killing the Shogun, and now Kondo-san? Seriously? If this is how Gintama is meant to end, I want it to end quickly...

Wait a sec, Did Kondo really beheaded or it was just Hijikata's dream ?
Please tell me Kondo that still alive and got arrested instead of beheaded, it's really painfull to watch, i need to recover from the last arc because Sho-chan died and now this happened, wtf Sorachi sensei please STAHP, i miss the ol' laid back days of Gintama,

No doubt in my mind that'll end this Spring. If they decide to throw out comedy episodes right after this... It'll feel way too weird. After this arc, there's even more action to come. We won't be getting this next action arc either 'cause it's not even done in the manga.

But maybe by the time this arc is completed in the anime, the current arc in the manga would finish ? The current arc in manga probably has under 5 chapters left.
