| Even if I knew she'll die I cried. I kinda felt jealous about Hijikata's relationship with Mitsuba but I forgot that in the middle of the ep. I-LOVE-HIJIKATA-TOSHIROU!! |
 |
| It sure was spicy... |
 |
| I wish Hijikata hat met up with Mitsuba one last time too. Ah well, can't have it all. Shinsengumi respect level +10. |
| Great arc. Gintama is definitely worth sticking around and watching. |
 |
| This is a really great, sad and touching story arc. I love how it explores the relationship between Kondo, Okita and Hijikata, and how it exposes different sides to each of these characters. I also love how Gin is a (small) part of this arc and he is like there to support Hijikata and Okita. |

Trie said: T_T <-- that pretty much sums it up Saddest episode so far. Even when I watched it the second time, I got tears in my eyes at the end. "So spicy" On the other hand, Hijikata covered in blood, slashing his way through the enemies, was too awesome.

mujtaba said: I Kinda wish Hijikata and Mitsuba could have confronted each other before she died but w.e. I loved the whole arc. I think it's better this way, if they met, there'll be more drama-romance thing, and I don't think it fit this anime... Toushi is cool the way he is...oni no fukuchou.. <3 And I loooooooooooooveeee this episode cz there are a lot of Toushi moments! I just love Toushi more and more! And it's a really good thing to know Okita-Kondo-Toushi's past! Gintama IS a masterpiece! Can't wait for another character past! especially Gin-Zura-Takasugi's past! Now here is my favorite character so far.. #1 Gin (no doubt! everyone love him I'm sure XD) #2 Toushi (he is so hawt and kakkoiiiiiii) #3 Kagura (can't resist her cuteness...and I love the way she talks) |

| Kinda touching. |
Apologies, I just can't avoid to rant. |
| 5/5 amazing arc. Gintama can give off so many emotions. Can make you laugh so hard but can also make you cry... |
 |
| Hijikata x Mitsuba FOREVER. I got shivers through this whole episode; it was so beautiful. Sad, but amazingly beautiful. Poor Hijikata.. I feel so bad. He absolutely positively loved Mitsuba. And he acknowledged it. When he was blushing in the flashback it made me break out into a huge grin. It's true though, no matter how sad, he would never have been able to love her as another person would because of the Shinsengumi. <3 I'm never ever going to let anyone else take Hijikata's love. In my heart, it's Hijikata x Mitsuba forever. Edit: In episode 114, Kuriko came along and it seems that Hijikata somewhat 'liked' her. After seeing that, I just had to come back here and say that I hold true that Hijikata x Mitsuba is the best couple :) You're amazing Hijikata. :) On another note: I'm not really excited to see the continuation of Gintoki and Takasugi's childhood relationship. In all honesty, I like arcs concerning the side characters better than the Benizakura one. But that's just my opinion and the next arc I haven't seen yet, so I'll see :) |

That killed me when he said he loved her but rejected her because he didn't have choice... DAMMIT, THIS IS WHY I HATE GINTAMA. I'M GOING TO BE SAD ABOUT THIS FOR LIKE A WEEK!!! Why does this anime have to be so epic...??? Episodes concerning my favorite character(s) are always so friggin' sad... 5/5 10/10 |
| this was an amazing arc. the drama was so well done, never thought id experience something like this going off the 1st 50 eps in this series. great job gintama for being so versatile enough and being one of the few long running shounen i can enjoy |
| Damn, wasn't expecting something this emotional after putting the series on hold for so long. |
 |
| Holy shit this episode was sad as fuck. It was REALLY close that I cried. The best non comedy Gintama episode I've seen. 5/5 Sent with Mal Updater |
| Depressing as fuck, but oh so beautiful. Not a single bad thing to say about this arc. |

| Aww, poor Sougo and poor Toushi... something drop in my eye and I was crying... |
 |
| No, I'm not crying. It's just the spicy crackers I'm eating ;_; |
| Beautiful arc so sad..very well done..gintama is the best |
 |
| I can't believe this show of all things almost made me cry, I'm so raising the score from a 8 to a 9 this was just incredible. |

Sad taste you have there kid you came up to me in the first place making you look more like a kid who got slapped without me even knowing it and start crying about it to me |
| not bad |
 |
| God.. I told myself I wasn't going to cry.. Caz I knew what was gona happen the whole time.. but then they had to show me Hijikata opening that bag... T _ T |
 |
| Jeez, that's the best Gintama arc yet. I hope that Mitsuba knew that Hijikata loved her after all. |
| looking back on the show, i have to say this is my favorite episode out of the entire series, not that the stuff to come isnt good but i think this ep is one of the best eps i have seen in any anime. |

| aww gintama you're supposed to make me laugh, not cry! dammit! |
 |
| i'm too shocked to continue watching Gintama, so... 10/10 and on hold and after this episode all "sogo-trying-to-kill-hijikata" jokes is not funny anymore |
karneheni said: and after this episode all "sogo-trying-to-kill-hijikata" jokes is not funny anymore No, it's still pretty damn funny. Though, I notice it doesn't happen as frequently since then. It's probably my favorite serious arc, though. I think a lot of the other ones are too drawn out, but this one was just right and had really good pacing. Well, the arc after this is really good as well. |

| :'( I cried alot |
 |
| Oh wow I UGGGGGH I can't believe that got to me ;_;7. One of the best arcs so far even though it's sad. |
 |
| This is easily my favorite arc so far. It hit on all the right notes, but its sad that she still ended up dying... |
| This episode is spicy........:( |
 |
| How touching, damn it is spicy |
 |
| Hate to repeat what others said but.. damn! It's so spicy!! T_T |
| I hate the word “fate.” Birth, encounters, partings, success and failures, fortune and misfortunes in life. If our lives are already set in stone by fate, then why are we even born? There are those born to wealthy families, those born to beautiful mothers, and those born into the middle of war or poverty. If that’s all caused by fate, then God is incredibly unfair and cruel. Because, ever since that day, none of us had a future and the only certain thing was that we wouldn’t amount to anything. - Takakura Shouma |
| This was miserable to watch. The episode was amazing, beautiful, perfect and wonderful, but I sobbed the entire time. Only Gintama is really capable of making me cry like that... |
| Depressing. ;; |
 |
| Quite a sad ending but quite a lovely episode in general, lets see what's next! |
 |
| Not often you get a death in Gintama (Random bad guys don't count). Very well handled between the comedy and drama. |
| I hope the Sogo trying to kill Hijikata jokes doesn't end here thats one of my favorite jokes I guess it wont since Sogo still wants to kill Hijikata to get his position as Vice chief |
| Fuck Gintama, make me tear up like that... :( That episode was fucking awesome. The Shinsengumi was fucking awesome. Kondo was fucking awesome. Kondo speech was really great. It showed how strong is the link between our 3 warriors. Hijikata action was pretty selfish, but he was so awesome. The way he just fighted all these people alone was so cool. He's a great friend for Sougo, I knew he cared about him. Sougo face when he cutted the car in half was scary, I liked it :3 It was nice to see Sougo out of sadistic character, he does have a soul indeed. Like the guy up me, I hope the Sougo trying to kill Hijitaka doesn't end, it's so funny xD |
| «Time is passing so quickly. Right now, I feel like complaining to Einstein. Whether time is slow or fast depends on perception. Relativity theory is so romantic. And so sad.» - Kurisu Makise a.k.a. The Zombie |
| I love all of the characters in Gintama.. Sougo you little sadist, you really grew on me these last episodes. Damn.. Tears were shed. 5/5. |
