Well, Shinigami arc is just 3 episodes and not have very fights, Gintama staff can produce this easily. The staff of this episode is different of Silver Soul.

About staff:
279:
ADs: Tetsurou Nireki (Silver Soul episode 01)
Assistant: Dai Imaoka (Not worked on Silver Soul yet)

280:
ADs:
Rie Nakajima (Not worked on Silver Soul yet)
Yoshihito Hishinuma (Not worked on Silver Soul yet)

281:
ADs:
Akira Inagaki (Just credited as AD in this episode, according my search)
Keiichiro Honjo (Not worked on Silver Soul yet)
Assistant: Masudani Yuki (Worked as KA in Silver Soul OP)


A point that many people don't understand is that Gintama staff always produced action arcs with few action episodes. Silver Soul is an arc that at 10 episodes, few moments don't has action. Shinigami had a great staff, most of them not worked on Silver Soul yet.

I prefer to compare Silver Soul animation vs Rakuyou, both have 1 cour, but Silver Soul is very better.

Again, that's because the studio chose to make the Shinigami arc look better. Obviously BNP would want to make a serious arc look better than a comedy arc. The Shinigami arc is the shortest action/serious arc (minus the Mitsuba arc), and the action doesn't appear until the last episode (and even then, it's not much). Because of this, they were able to spend a lot of time on the production of these episodes to make it look good, since the arc isn't animation extensive. SA, FS, Rakuyou, and SS are animation extensive, with non-stop battles taking place in Rakuyou and SS. At least SS has some breather episodes in between, (episode 343, 348, etc). But Rakuyou was non-stop action. Episode 3-7, and 9-11 were basically just fights. And the fact that there were still two great looking episode, (3 and 10), and only one mediocre-looking episode (episode 11), it's kinda a wonder why their production didn't tank while making it. Maybe since they had a break before and after helped, plus them using an outsourcing studio like Wanpack. Production wise, I always found Rakuyou to be quite impressive, considering its circumstances.
