Goodbye Sho-chan :(

Though I was already spoiled by that fact, I'm still hoping until the end that I was just trolled and he didn't really die. I think this is the first major death in Gintama if I'm not mistaken.

I will surely miss this line: SHOGUN KAAAYOOO!! We'll never hear it the same way again :(

SHIGESHIGEEEEE!

Shogun's episodes are among my favorites so it's pretty sad knowing he's dead.

Also everything was useless, then? What a depressing arc, but also the best so far imo.

Man what an arc. The shogun was one of my favorite characters. Every time he was involved in the odd jobs antics, I would laugh so hard I have tears. Sucks that he would be the guy to die and none of the villains. Farewell Buddy.

Binged in around 4 hours.

I'm speechless. How do you even begin to talk about what just happened in these past 8 episodes. Perfect from start to finish.
5/5 episode, 10/10 for the arc

This episode is one great ending of an awesome arc, and I can't say anything else than "it was great". Though I expected the assassination at the end, but was still shocked that Shigeshige died.

Though this episode was super sad to the point that I wanted to cry, I can't and I don't know why, I even wanted to force it but I just didn't. Maybe I'm weird. RIP Shigeshige-sama, you will be missed.

I should have known better then to think for one second Sougo would be nice to Hijikata XP even if he was just giving him a lighter

As for Shigeshige's death and his last few moments with Soyo... ;_; Just thinking of her finding out he's not napping....


I thought Sougo was sick for a moment, but turns out he was fine.

Amazing arc, probably the best one yet.

For me, the highlights were the Sougo-Kamui and Gin-Takasugi fights.

Man, I can't believe Sho-chan is really gone. He will be missed. The comedy eps with him were always top-notch and this is also my fave serious arc.

Is the Shogun alive or is he not? A question that will never be answered. A hidden question left behind in the world of Gintama. Anyway, this was once again, an incredible episode. The One Piece reference from Kamui trying to become the King of The Pirates, Shinsuke still in coma and Gin and the rest healing up.
Shogun dissing Soyo's tea made me laugh but what a cliffhanger..

A new arc begins right after one of the most important arcs ever..
Gintama is ROLLING!

I watched this arc in one sitting (besides for a food break) and I don't regret it. 10/10. Gave great action, worldbuilding, backstory, and plot.

RIP Shigeshige though, he was a really great person and it was unfortunate that he actually died. Gave some of the best comedy episodes T_T

I wonder if Shinsuke is still an enemy at this point.

So, the end goal now is to destroy the current puppet shogunate under the control of Tendoshu.

Damn, a major supporting character did die. RIP Shigeshige.

Soyo is gonna be gone for a long time, probably until the final clash against Tendoshu in the final season, I guess. I think she'll assume control of her brother's faction. That scene in the end, I wanna sleep in Soyo's lap peacefully like that as well. I can't wait to see her grown up someday.

Oh shit, no more SHOGUN KAYO :-(
His death was so sad, i wanted him to survive but i feel like this is a better ending.
Easily my second favorite ARC taking the spot from courtesan of a nation and probably will become first with enough time

Great that the jump saved Gintoki but damn that end.... NOOOOO that was really heartbreaking Shige-Shige was so great, all of his episodes were the most hilarious ones and he was so epic during this arc he was seriously an underrated character so it's even sadder that he died now.. RIP

Shogun is Dead?!!!! No Way!!!! After all this happened he died! I cannot believe it.
10/10 arc for me! Everything was perfect from start to finish. Episode 40 might be my favorite episode from the arc and overall gintama as well.
So, takasugi & Gintoki both survived, great and Katsura will be involved in FS arc!
Next episode it's FS arc, and I've excited for it!

So you just had this huge battle where the Shogun could've died saving someone, but instead you decide to off him by meeting some random dude in the end who was already fishy looking? And then he decides to die on his sister's lap without telling her? The fuck?

What everyone sworn to protect got its life taken away regardles, I'm gonna miss Shogun sama for sure

The humor seems to be back, better now than later I guess, but most of all its the conclusion that made this episode so great. The storytelling and character involvement in this arc were truly top tier in their own respective terms, Takasugi and Kamui worked very greatly as the villains and the flashbacks were really standing out for their emotional side. Thank you Gintama for delivering such unforgettable expierence

And this finaly concludes one of the greatest arcs of any anime in general, I think peak of Gintama has been witnessed, gotta enjoy the ride that has been left

NOOOO Shigeshigeee. After everything that happened, why did you have to die like that, it was so close. What happened at the end, was that one of his doubles? because that scene happened after he died. I was getting ready to breathe a sigh of relief but then the unexpected happened. 

I really wonder if him saying "farewell" was because he knew what's going to happen. The whole scene and his dying "message" was done very well, I'll miss him :(

I guess I can't say it's a happy ending now. Overall amazing arc just as expected, my favorite so far but that's mostly thanks to those 2 episodes. And to think that the next episode is the start of another just as amazing arc. I absolutely love it, but I don't think I'm ready.
