Oh my god! Kondo WTF LOL. Brilliant arc, probably one of the most creative from the entire first season alone. Shinpachi and Yamazaki deserved that one near the end :)

This arc was such a blast to watch, one of the most unique and ridiculous ideas for an arc even within gintama itself.

Kyuubei and Katsuras dialouge ended up getting me hyped for their fight even tho i knew it wouldnt be shown. "Lets Party" favourite battle cry haha.

Funniest arc of Gintama. My favorite was the Wii arc but this one took the lead.
So many great moments, the dance of Perfume, Sadaharu and Elizabeth and Kondo's sacrifice :). It was really a great arc :)

One of the best arc ever! Gintama's the greatest! Lol at that pants pulling chain. Kondo's already half naked. Lol at Katsura talking about the sponsors. Little did people know that it did end at March! Lol at Katsura and Hijikata working together because of their one common trait. Let's Party! Lol, their bring up/down Kondo's rank for the sake of the rest! Lol at Elizabeth and Sadaharu bitch slapping Sa-chan and Tsukuyo! HARDCORE M*THAF*CKA! They ended the war!!! Everyone's drop except the stepping stones, Shinpachi and Yamazaki, until the get dropped!

BTW for anyone interested,the name Vacuum was a parody on "Perfume"(which is mentioned) ..and the song running in the background while they were dancing is called "Polyrithm".Perfume is a popular techno pop group composed of 3 girls.This was the first time I could actually knew one of the references beforehand lol .

Such a good and funny arc. I can't believe how well made this was.

Sadaharu and Elizabeth haha. And this electro dance, poor Tsukuyo she didn't seem happy with that :D

Also the end "dirt should return to dirt", I knew that something like this would come >.<

That they showed the ranking from 100 - 1 was also nice. Nothing more to say 5/5

Ahahah but tbh I'd probably jump any recap/countdown from other show. Gintama is different. Some of their craziest ark start with something that doesn't seem really exciting.

Oh and saying that made me think... Don't forget to look after the credit of every episode since there's a lot of extra stuff hidden here. The ending song last for about 1:30 so that's the tip to find them easily :-)

This arc was amazing from start to finish. Really loved the idea behind it.

I always found Gintama to be at it's best when we get to see all the characters interact each other.

Too bad that this arc is already over I really enjoyed it.

Had too many funny parts to list them all, but some highlights were Kondou already sunken to the lowest level, Sadaharu and Elizabeth blasting in with that double punch and the betrayal of Shinpachi and Yamazaki xDD.

Awesome arc. Sadaharu and Elizabeth ftw. Also, that ending was hilarious. Only Gintama can have such an entertaining arc based on the concept of popularity polls.

One of my fav parts was when Kondo began to drop the Prefume's ranking by being himself lol This arc made me realize how much I hate Gintama's girls besides Tsukki and Tama.

Also glad to see Yams on the #1 spot since he's unironically my #1 boy. I couldn't care less about Shinpachi tho.

You can truly sympathize with Yamazaki and Shinpachi though.
Overall, a fantastic and hilarious arc!

Okita lampshading that Shinpachi and Madao share the same glasses joke was already a good beginning, also i expected his number 2 to hold on because of course he expected betrayal, just like Cartman in his ultimate plan against Scott Tenorman

Yes, Kondo, people is tired of watching you without closes every chance you get. And considering Otae is even more than usual against you, there you go... You got what you ....... deserved.

Her line "you are just ripoffs of historical figures" was nice, even if against two of the best characters

It was Yamazaki all along? Uhm... Yeah... The ending was a little too sweet to be believable. Good, good arc, obviously.
