Good opening and the ending...just seeing all those characters made me feel so nostalgic ;). From the looks of it, after this arc (which should finish next episode), would be another serious Shinsengumi arc (I believe that we haven't had one since the Itou arc which was way back in episode 101-105?) Oh and btw, hilarious episode as always (including reference to Shinpachi's seiyuu and *8th place glasses*). For some reason, it seems like Gintama' has been pulling out all the stops with back to back to back arcs which are really great so far (Shogun, harem and now host club).

Love the new opening! And I think I spy little Hiji in it. And new characters for a new arc? :D

Anyway, the episode was hilarious, as expected XD I swear, I seriously couldn't bear the sight of seeing Gin blush. It was too damn adorable ;u; And of course he had to ruin the moment with Hostcar ISAO going VROOM!! lol

I thought Kagura looked like an angel <3 kawaii~

Gin-san was so cool... but I like comedic Gin-chan better <3

AHHH... I can't explain every detail, AWESOME EPISODE.

I haven't seen the ep yet, but the new opening is pretty awesome, I really like the part with Takasugi and Kamui it looked really cool, (like standing on top of the world together).
And I can't wait for the next arc (haven't read the manga) but it seems like the main villain will be something to look forward to.

Funny episode.

I lol'd so hard at the 2d-3d talk and esp. the seiyuu reference. XD



The OP looks epic with the antagonists for another major arc.

ED makes me feel nostalgic. :)

I LOVE this episode, it's so funny to see them all trying to swoo girls~~ Gin-san actually did have a heart-throbbing moment untill Kondo came and totally ruined the mood :P

I just knéw the Shinsengumi (especially Hijikata) would come and be included, they're too handsome to ignore haha xD I loved his Dante reference too :D

Ahww I wanna see them in full action with Madame, I'm sure she'll be swayed by one of our lovely hosts XD

Loved the Sengoku Basara reference even though they've done it before.

This episode was hilarious <3 Sougo and Toshi were just too funny.
Looks like we'll be getting a drunk Tsukki and Kyuubei next week. I do look forward to it.

And ooh, another Shinsengumi arc coming up. It looks like this one's really going to focus on Toshi's past. It explains his recent popularity too. Anyway, I'm excited :)

Every OP, they show the shinsengumi like they're really badass, but in reality, they are like the humor characters.

I'm hearing that ep 252 (51) will be the final episode of the year.

"Yeah if Gin-chan dyed his hair black, they would look the same!"

I'm glad someone pointed that out since I was thinking the same exact thing at the time lol. I couldn't get into the first half of this episode, but the second half was hilarious. It should be fun to see how this turns out :D

lol at how Gintoki knows all about 4WD's. This episode was great. i was kinda worried about this ep because the last host club arc wasnt all that great. but once again Gintama continues its streak of amazing eps. But its gonna be extremely depressing once the Gintama anime goes on hiatus again :(

OP: It's a nice song, but the tone of that singer's voice is horrible. Or, at least to me. I find it extremely irritating. Especially her diction -_-"
ED: Really well done. Love love it <3

But besides that, episode = awesome. Not as great as the last arc (I have to say), but this is pretty fun though :) It'll be interesting to watch. I can't believe I'm almost caught up though. It makes me sad. :/ No more daily dose of Gintama D;

It's kinda pointless to say how funny Gintama is in the individual episodes, it's pretty much a given by this point xD It's almost redundant lol

With that said this episode was hilarious and i love it with all my heart!

I love both new OP and ED. First is a really energetic rock song with a kick ass vocal performance that just gets me in the Gintama mood. ED is a slideshow of every single character from the series and it makes me feel really nostalgic, despite only starting on Gintama a year ago!

...And who can argue with having Taka-tin, Shogun and Dragon Leader in every episode xD

God this arc is also so good. So much references (DBZ, One Piece) :D

The opening is nice, almost as good as the one before. ED is also not bad.
Seems like from the opening that there will be something with the Shinsengumi.

Can't wait to see who Madame is, but it seems next episode will be crazy with all the people who will be there xD
