What happened to the old guy? Did he died too?
yah both of them died together, really bittersweet, they both finally see eachother after decades away only to pass away together, however they are both finally together and nothing will interrupt their time together anymore.

God damn it this arc was so beautifully depressing

Wtf, I'm not supposed to cry when I watch Gintama. So why are my eyes teary?

That ending was beautiful. They both died, under the bright moon, right where they promised to reunite and go somewhere, far away from Yoshiwara.

Pfffffiou, for a second, I thought Sadasada would escape death. Thank god Takasugi saved the day.
I would have liked for Oboro to die too. It would have helped Gintoki to turn a page on his past, but that dude will obviously come haunting him back.

It was seriously an amazing arc. When Gintoki goes rage mode, nothing can be more epic than that.

O.M.G. Amazing arc!!!! Loving the development here!!!

So Nobume works for/with Takasugi? I am guessing Sasaki as well :O The way Takasugi killed Sadasada that was brutal :O

Im looking forward to when Shoyo's students will fight against the Tendoshu!!

Wow, I did not expect Takasugi to make an appearance out of nowhere and send SogoSogo to hell.

"Say hello to Sensei for me."

Great arc overall, but it needed more Katsura, considering this arc was related to Shoyo, who taught Gintoki, Takasugi as well as Katsura.

My favourite serious arc along with Yoshiwara in Flames. There was some humour, a good story and great action! Probably the best action in Gintama so far!

I think I got some sake in my eyes or something....damn. I never thought I would love this arc as much as I did, but this was a very good arc with a beautiful ending to boost. I'm glad the loyal retainer has his happy ending with the princess, massive respect and props for Gintoki for being such a great bro in this arc.

I just can't get enough of Gintama, it's just too good. Every arc brings a smile and new light into my face, Gintama is truly a wonderful series with alot of meaningful messages.

The end credit scene was brilliant.

Ahh this arc finally ended. Definitely one of the best arcs. I remember this started with Gin-san trying to help a prostitute fulfill her promise to her customer that she fell in love with. It sounded ridiculous but look at it now. They ended up messing with the superpowers controlling their whole damn country. That's so Gintama.

Takasugi delivering justice like a boss.

One thing worries is me is that, are we only gonna be getting new serious arcs? Because although Gintama has astounding serious arcs, I want some to see some of the comedy arcs getting animated :(

Nobume-san is with Takasugi eh? And she's also a former member of those assassins, Gintama is getting more and more complicated.
Aaaand of course I cried at their reunion, damn you Gintama!!

Wow, great arc. I gotta say, I'm starting to sympathize even with Takasugi and his cruel methods, I'm hoping he could come round and join forces with Gin in the final arc. Also, this episode was the first mention of the Emperor in the series, wasn't it? We learned more about Edo politics in this arc than in all the previous 250 episodes, awesome.

Such a great arc, it's definitely one of the best so far. The plot made such a huge jump forward and character developement was on point.

Can't believe about all these things which happened in this episode. First of all how did Oboro survive? I mean he got spiked by Gins sword. His conversation with Nobume was interesting. So she was also part of the Tendoushou? I hope they will show more of her past.

Damn Takasugi killed Sadasada. Long time we haven't seen anything of him but one thing is obvious after this, he wants to destroy the Tendoushou. So does that mean Nobume and Sasaki working together with Takasugi?

I'm glad Shigeshige will stay as the shogun. Wouldn't be the same without him :D

That ending was so good but at the same time so sad ;_;
GintokixTsukuyo is confirmed, after that episode definitely.

Nobume: Go grab the can. It probably flew all the way to Yoshiwara.
Gintoki: Okay, everybody hide.

Suzuran: But I must apologize. Both the cherry blossoms and I have withered during the long wait.
Maizo: What are you talking about? Nothing has changed. The cherry blossoms are every bit as beautiful as they once were.

Amazing ending for a great arc T_T

Call me sadistic, but I wanted Sadasada to die more brutally. You disappoint me, Takasugi..

That was so incredible beautiful and depressing,I cried buckets ;_;

Overall it was an outstanding arc and brought everything on the table.

Comedy,drama,action,story and character development,it got them all.

I was also really impressed by the shogun,that he can be more than a gag character and as always good to see Takasugi,him killing Sadasada was the little highlight in this episode.

Favorite arc of the show so far. So much epicness packed into a few episodes.
Takasugi FTW, killing that bastard Sadasada. Very glad they didn’t try to show a sympathetic side to that dickwad.
On the other hand - hurrah for the current Shogun - he is awesome! Very glad he is still in charge. Standing up to those people, and helping out Grampy to go see his woman was wonderful.
Speaking of Grampy - that ending scene with them was so beautiful & sweet. I loved how everyone was listening to their words. Cried for real.
