I wasn't expecting much from this episode... However, the second half was awesome. Can't wait for 108.

Nice episode! Episodes 107 and 108 are the one i've never heard or seen about. Good drama happening. Makes Gintoki look more GAR.

-SPOILERS BELOW-



I liked it.. Wasn't the best I've seen from Gintama, but it was still worth getting up at 5am just to check if my download was completed.

The plot twist towards the end with 'Aniki' surprised me, but the scene where Gintoki fell into the water felt a little.. cheesy. I've seen the same scene before in other shows, so I know Gintoki is going to miraculously survive. Just because he is Gintoki. Totally kills the suspense man.

I had a few good laughs though. Especially when they revealed their 'last resort' to bring the yakuza boss's son out XD

Prediction for next episode: Yakuza boss's son isn't actually dead! Well he hasn't really gotten much substantial screen time. And what the yakuza boss said to his son in that scene with the stone lion hasn't been addressed at all.

I hope I'm not right about that, cause that would mean Gintama is actually pretty predictable.

Nice episode. I had a few laughs and it's always great to see Gintoki fight :3

That wasn't the yakuza boss or even the son. It's obviously Nakamura, a.k.a. Aniki, and some old man.

That was quite the distraction.

"Aniki" turning out to be evil was actually predictable for me. And as someone stated before, the first half dragged on but the second half was definitely worth the wait. Anytime Gintoki gets mad, I get excited. I love it when he's pissed off. :]

Yeah i didnt hear about them either.

The way Gintoki threw himself to the river was so 'samurai' and 'im not dead yet >:D'

Gintama isn't the same. After Kyubei arc it became stupid (only few episodes are good).

Gintoki always have the coolest answer : ''I thought so that this sake was a nasty taste. Apparently, it was not only because it was served by a man...''

I like those mini arc. That dude is hidding something. For me, there is two possibility. That guy is in fact his son and have been hidding for whatever reason. The other one, and the most plossible in my opinion, is that he helped the son to escape the familly. They said that he was really close to him, so I think he was bluffing when he said that he hated the young master.

Shinpachi's reaction after seeing the Yakuza in that big house. Dat Scream!! XD

That old man worries too much, we otaku people are the same so being shut in isn't a problem at all. =p But 5 years!! it's still too much! XD

I love Gintoki so much. He helps almost everyone else.

But damn, that guy backstabbed Gin and killed the Yakuza's son. He even shoot Gintoki. o_o

I'm still not sure whether the anikmi dude killed the son. Did he ever actually say he did?

Well yes, Gintoki's fight was a bit cliche, but it's still Gintoki.

Gintoki has taken so many lethal wounds over the course of the series it's shocking he's still alive.

I love this show because one minute you can be knee deep in silliness and the next minute you're on the edge of your seat caught up in suspense.

This episode was really unsettling, it just quickly became very dark. The son was long dead, and the father just died too, deaths just keep pouring in. Gin got beat up bad, even while it was because of the poison, it is still a very troublesome situation.
