Great arc. Perfect Gintama mix of laughter and tears. Better than the last one imo, though Im probably in the minority there.

even for Gintama, this arc was way too cheesy
the Macadamia nuts part was hilarious though

Anyone else notice this is like the only time we have ever seen kondo do something kind of badass and not be a total stalker for once. Hell i think this is the only time in the series where tae and him were in the same scene without her beating the shit out of him.

yeah i noticed!! otae didn't beat him and treat him to macadamia nuts with a big smile!!!

Sorry if this has been asked already but I can't seem to find a concrete answer. Is Gintama going on a break again like normal, or ending for real? I know Sorachi loves to troll but this seems kind of sudden since Enchousen has only been on air for a few months.

Nah, there are some scenes Tae didn't resort to violence on Kondo, but they are few and between.
And Kondo has been badass a number of times, but I think this might be the first time he actively took part in battle like that, yea. Usually he's acting as a leader and giving orders/morale support, befitting his role as commander.

Dat movie trailer, is it really the end of the anime serie or are they trolling us, as usual? I really really hope they're just trolling us since I can't handle the idea of not seeing new episodes of Gintama for the rest of my life o.o" I'm really curious about the movie though, finally some information about Gintoki's past and the rebellion with Katsura, Takasugi and Sakamoto.

Very touching ending, I loved Gintok so much during this arc, he's awesome on a whole new level. I kind of hoped that they would've managed to turn Obi-one back into a human again but plot wise it would be very difficult what to do with him, plus the enidng was very very touching this way. God I love this show.

May the force and chocolate macadamia nuts be with you forever, Obi-one Kenofi (ಥ◡ಥ)

I finally understand Star Wars... SO YODA WAS A WEAPON DEALER MERCENARY ALL ALONG?! I KNEW I SHOULD NEVER HAVE BELIEVED IN HIM. MAY THE FORCE BE WITH YOU MY ASS, YOU SNEAKY GREEN RAT.

So, it was a nice episode isn't it? Shinpachi shows that he's not up to no good, that he can actually beat the Galaxy Sword Master, even if it's a phony title.

At the end, the basically built a hobos rehabilitation club, right?

Finally, the thing that beat everything else in that episode : Otae smile at the end :3

Great ending for this amazing arc, Shinpachi got some mad crazy development from this arc. Hajime is really one of the few anime characters that you just can't hate, his smile is so kawaii ~ I'm glad he ended up conquering his machine side to protect the ones he loved, a happy ending that he deserved.

The last 5 min of this episode was really funny as well, MACADAMIA NUTS INTENSIFIED~~~

when Shinpachi and Obi-one fought each other Otae stood there like she was refereeing the fight and I can't help but cringe man. Two dudes were fighting to the death and she's like thinking it's some kind of sport or a competition. It would've been fine if it was a joke since Gintama's just so good at it,you know, putting jokes where they normally don't belong and then pulling it off perfectly. But this time it's just lame. Sorry.

Now that comedy in the second half. That's the Gintama I know and love. Madao's making things 10x funnier again lmao!

this arc did not have the impact the previous arcs had. It just feels so weak and rushed. Anyway iirc this is the first arc that I did not like.

I liked the animation of this arc with hajime because they've put much emphasize on the colors. The story itself is also okay since the yorozuya members are personally involved.

What an arc~ And there is even room for humour after such an ending lol it's so Gintama~ And that bit of a touching moment when they showed the "eternal instructor" thing awww

Is he really dead though? I wish he somehow survived and that he'll appear again u___u

Btw Gin in those "instructor" clothes/uniform!!! DAYUM he looks so good in that XD

All of its episodes were really touching and I loved to gain more insight into Shinpachi's past and character. Otae was very sweet in this too.

That's what I love so much about Gintama. The first half was so serious and touching.

It's true what Shinpachi said, if Gin fought for real he would have beat Hajime easily. But in this situation there was no way for that. I'm glad Hajime regain his consciousness when he fought against Shinpachi. Seeing Otae and Shinpachi so sad was hard to see, even Kagura couldn't stop her tears ;_;

Damn that beam attack of Hajime, it was like watching that one episode in One Punch Man where Genos tried to stop the meteor :o

The second half of this episode omg, I laughed so much. Seeing a brown Shinpachi and Otae + the fucking macadamia nuts which got mentioned 100 times? xD

Kyuubei went totally nuts on these nuts hahaha. A really great way to end this awesome arc and I really liked these two scenes :)






Can't wait to see the second movie which looks awesome from the preview. Hearing more about Gins past <3

Gintama might be the best long running anime out there. The author quickly attaches you to said guest characters without their short sub-stories feeling rushed or unnatural.

Awww - dammit Gintama! Once again taking me from lump in the throat & tears in my eyes straight into helpless giggles.
The scenes with Gin, Obi & Shinpachi were beautiful. When Gin handed Shinpachi his sword - ugh - the feels! And Obi dying with a smile on his face, his humanity winning out and saving the world. <3

Then of course, everything ends up being nuts. Literally. LMAO

“Tears are handy for washing away troubling and sad feelings. But when you grow up, you’ll learn that there are things so sad, they can never be washed away by tears. That there are painful memories that should never be washed away. So people who are truly strong laugh when they want to cry. They endure all of the pain and sorrow while laughing with everybody else.”
– Obi Hajime (Gintama)

Best Quotes ever~ ㅠㅠ REST IN PEACE Hajimee nii.

I felt all kind of emotions from this short arc it was so short yet so good 10/10 both arc and the 13 episodes.

I first wish to address how much I love how what seemed like another insignificant title for an episode "Liquor and Gasoline, Smiles and Tears" turned out to be such an important message after having the context of the episode. I loved the message this arc was able to give about how different people deal with grief. The parody was good (I loved the Darth Maul foot scene), the action was good (SHINPACHI ACTION), and the comedy was great. This arc will go down as one of my favorites. The macadamia nuts part was really funny too. This will go in the record books as one of the best Kondo faces.

The preview bit was hilarious too.

The best part about this arc was the drama, we hadn't had any tense drama in Gintama before. Wasn't one of the best arcs, but it was a pretty nice one I guess.

This is why Gintama is consistently in top 10. They pulled off like 3 arcs in 12 episodes and did it better than most anime’s covering 1 arc in 50 episodes. This was an awesome season.
