| Amazing. Fucking. Episode. This really encompassed just how great Gintama is. |

They probably are saving their budget for future episodes. I mean apparantly this arc at the very least has to be 6 episodes but it might be 7Why don't they make these pictures move?! The upcoming movie is also going to cost a lot. Movie and the tv series have separate budgets don't they? Anyways awesome episode. I lol'ed hard when princess Soyo came in to the prison like it was a sleepover xD And still getting use to the one Ep a week formula for me. So weird since I marathon Gintama for the past two and a half months. Well looking forward to next week. |

| oh my goah. this episode. i loved every single bt of it. so much humor with the deep plot thats forming... |

The upcoming movie is also going to cost a lot. Movie and the tv series have separate budgets don't they? The dip in animation for the serious arcs has always happened,compare the start of the benikazura arc outside of the opening scene and compare it to pretty much any part of the last 2 episodes for example. |

| This episode was just pure awesomeness. Enough said. |
| The only thing you can rely on is that you can't rely on anything. |
| Shogun is incredibly unlucky and lucky at the same time... |
| Is it just me or is each episode eating 3-4 chapters? Sure it's awesome, but I can't help but be worried that Gintama will run off of chapters earlier than expected. Great chapter nonetheless; comedy, drama, and action in one: only Gintama does that for you ;D |

I can't blame though, Gintama's just got that great plot during serious arcs |

| 5/5 episode a funny episode. that sad back story sure caught me off guard |
 |
| I must be dumb as hell, but why is the former Shogun doing all this, so as to retain his image so it does not appear that one of his people fell in love with a women from Yoshiwara? Now he's sending out the Bakufu to deal with Gintoki and the team? |

Hybridbloodszak said: Me too ^^Sign me up for the Yoshiwara Delivery Service X D This episode can only be described as Gintama. Just great! |
Bigbuffoon said: They are only translating 2 episodes per ep, i looked it up. This arc is going to be exactly 7 episodes at this rate making it the 2nd longest arc in the entire series right behind yoshiwara, neither ep ate up 3 and a half chaps, just 2.Is it just me or is each episode eating 3-4 chapters? Sure it's awesome, but I can't help but be worried that Gintama will run off of chapters earlier than expected. I still say they should go on a re-run hiatus again before making new episodes once this arc finishes up Anyhow really hoping that guy with a scar across his face from the pv will show up next ep. Hes from gintoki's past judging by the op so hit should get interesting |

| SHOGUNNNNNNN. Loved this episode<3 Funny as hell, and shit going down Gintama style :D. |
 |
| This episode had me crackin' sooo good XD it never seize to amaze me and I love it. |
| Shits gonna go down! Why you so pimp for Shogun, eh? Tsukki and Nobume are cute =p Sogou got his balls crushed, RIP lol The twist in the flashback was good, I didnt expected that it was the retainer, instead of the Shogun. We get to see the Shinsengumi! Too bad Katsura and his faction is not here, he really is missing out like how Gintoki said. Love how when they make the promise with the strands of hair and you see Gintoki pulling his nose hair, such pure randomness xD |

 "Have you ever encounter a wild beast that guarantees to never bite anyone?" ~ Roronoa Zoro |
| So, who wants to see the Gintama movie together with the Pokemon movie? lmao Anyway, great episode. |
| Coming completely from a cosplayer's point of view, I really hope someone takes a picture like the one this episode ended on. Hell, maybe I'll try and get a Tsukki and a Shinpachi for my group and do it myself... |
| I watched it again, and I still dont understand why is the former old shogun is doing this? Yorozuya, Tsukki, Mimawarigumi and the Shisengumi are doing this because of the promise and suspicions of their activities. But whats the reason on the shogun's side? Is he trying to take over and become Shogun again? So his trying to kill his nephew? |
"Have you ever encounter a wild beast that guarantees to never bite anyone?" ~ Roronoa Zoro |
| Wow... seriously awesome arc so far (and this coming from someone who hasn't cared for Gintama's arcs since benizakura or umibouzu). Gintoki and the girls covering for the unconscious shogun was hilarious. |
baltazak said: MsNaush said: I wonder if Zura will make an appearance. Hope he does... that will be awesome if zura i mean katsura :D intervenes I thought the same while reading the manga, but too bad... Flashbacks only D: It's not fair Zura's always missing the most epic arcs ;___; Anyway this arc gonna be something really gorgeous. As good as Yoshiwara Arc imo. And yeah, the most badass fight is coming *Q* Can't wait <3 |
     |
| I can't believe Zura's missing out on all this! |
 |
| So many highlight on this episode. - Sasaki silently shot at Shinpachi (to think that he spent 3 mags too. lol) - Nobume in kimono - Sasaki trying to add more e-mail buddy at any chance - Sougo (being an S) tease at Nobume (Her snapped out at him is a surprise for me) - and get his nut almost crushed as a result (I don't know if I should feel bad or jealous at the guy, for having 2 girls going at him) - Soyo hime (misleading) appearance in front of the group followed by the traditional Gintama wtf face (cracks me all the time) - And the nostril hair, way to go to ruin an emotional scene. Still I can't resist to ROFL Can't wait for next week, daaaaaang |

lightXTC said: Oh god, I haven't laughed so hard in ages. Episode is deserving of 9999999999999999 out of 5. Oh IKR, LMAO.....God I been missing some Gintama in my life!!! XDD I actually purposely stopped watching it after the Kintama arc eps b/c I didn't see a need to just rewatch 'classic' eps--even if they added a bit of new stuff to it (besides if I want to watch old eps, I can easily watch whatever eps/arc that I want). But I periodically would check back to see if and when the new eps started back and was surprised to see when this one (258) and ep 5 (257) was up!! Jeezus, I tell you it's been a long ass while since I died laughin' like THAT! Hell I'd give this damn ep MORE than votes if it'd let me, lol. |

You search for a time machine "A-All we have to do is find a t-t-time machine." -Gintoki AHAHAHA.....no you didn't take it there w/ the 't-t-time machine' quote....XD. Oh lawd, that's still one of my favoritest (I don't even CARE if that's not a word, lol) funny-ass Gintama moment of all time! That's what made me realize this was the anime for me, LOL. |

Icebreaker93 said: please dont try to start that shit here, both shows are way too different and criticizing one as being boring due to its adaptation process is uncalled for especially since no one mentioned one piece and also since gintama's creator is a big fan of one pieceBigbuffoon said: Is it just me or is each episode eating 3-4 chapters?

| Ah Gintama truly gets the balance between comedy and drama down to a fine art. I loved this arc in the manga, can't wait to see the rest animated. |
 |
| On a side note where is Katsura and why isn't he actually watching? Lmao Shogun getting abused again. Pretty good episode! |
 |
| Loved the moment when Gin-san mentioned Zura, from the moment on I knew it would be full of epicness :D |

| Pretty great development here, lets see what happens next! |
 |
| Seems like a great arc & this was an awesome episode~! So many great moments lol |
| Haha she has a great shogun voice - shogun Gintoki takes out his nose hairs |

| Three minutes in and my stomach is already hurting from laughing. Holy shit. The current shogun is FLYing AWAY! BUTTERFLYing AWAY in the River Styx! At this rate, we'll be BUTTERFLYing AWAY with him, so before that, let's start RUNning AWAY! |
 |
ToG25thBaam said: Loved the moment when Gin-san mentioned Zura, from the moment on I knew it would be full of epicness :D absolutely right I think I won't stop watching until I end the season :D |
| Goddamnit Gintoki, you had to break that beautiful and emotive moment by picking your nose hair xD You're the best. Welp, it's time to kill that old fucking fat shogun. That dude is a massive bastard sonuvabitch. What a prick, let Gintoki give him a bloody lesson. I never expected the pervert servant to be the Yoshiwara queen lover. Quite sad, really :/ Losing an arm for the girl you love... That dude is pretty badass in the end. They need to reunite them one last time ;_ ; |
| «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 |
| Wow, that nose hair moment though. Also, Yorozuya VS The Country. Amazing. |
"You either die an Ashita no Joe, or you live long enough to see yourself become a Naruto."  |
| Nice combination of moments that made me bust a gut and moments that twisted my gut. Next episode looks pretty rad (^: I'm glad I'm still at the point where I can just click to go to the next episode, I don't know how I'm going to cope when I catch up to the season that's currently airing. |
Good at offending and bad at letting things slide. |
| Wow, this is gonna be one badass arc! What a dark backstory! Let's go kick so ex-shogun ass! Also Tsukuyo and Nobume sleeping with dat lucky shogun! 6/5 |
 |
| Gintama is just so awesome man. An arc starts about an old prostitute and her promise to some guy and you'd think it's just some simple stuff. And then Gintama will prove you wrong. It will transform into a dark and serious arc but they will still be able to insert hilarious jokes in between. |
 |
| Love how Nobume fits right in. Also love how Gintoki and Nobume hide and run away together |
 |
| Let's make a promise that everyone of us is gonna come back and rip off a hair from our heads as a symbol. -everyone does it- -gintoki rips off a nose hair- |
 |
| I'm liking this arc! and fucking Gintoki using his nose hairs... I'm glad we're getting so much Tsukuyo this season, and that we get to see Nobume again! |
