This is perhaps the first arc where Gintoki actually killed another human being. He actually slashed a number of Naraku corps and then took out Oboro. I cannot see Oboro surviving that!

Holy! It's Sho-chan! He looks so epic! No more time for jokes!!!!!

Love these parts of the episode.

Hijikata complaining about that they are not teaming up with Isaburo while cannoning!
Matsudaira using the cannon after 1 count.
The revelation of Shoyo-sensei's face!
And, Gintoki finishes Oboro!!!!

Such an action packed episode!!!!!!

Possibly yeah. In Four Devas arc he killed Amanto not humans so you're probably right. Of course he must have killed some traitors during the war but we've never seen it.


^ Quotation corrected.

goral said:
BTW, I'm not surprised that he killed someone who tried and kill his beloved Tsukky :].

On a different note, on the biggest Polish Gintama forum one of the female users had come up with (IMO) a better way of removing poison from Gintoki. She suggested that Tsukuyo could suck it along with the blood.


I don't think Gintama will ever pull anything like that! Besides, Otae-san won't take it too lightly, you know. Despite how she thinks Gintoki is a complete trash, she won't give up on him without a fight! Poor Kondo-san has no chance, but that's a completely different matter in hand. :P

Also, wait a couple of years, Kagura will become a fine woman! ;)


No way man. Kagura is more like a daughter to Gin than a potential love interest lol

But on topic though, great episode, and as expected animation was top quality. I'm a mangareader but kind really remember how this arc ends, so I will be looking forward to next week.

I am sad that the next episode is the last of this great arc =(

Badass Gintoki as ever, what a smart way to kill someone!

I love how Tsukki rushes to Gin after thinking he got shot and how a few moments later, Gin just effortlessly stabbed someone to save her <3

Nobume was cute when she ate the donut lol

The Shogun was cool, I knew he was in the "good side" and went against his uncle.

Epic Gin! Even Kakashi's Rasengan isn't enough to take him down :D

In all seriousness, I like Gin's fighting style; very unorthodox, "resourceful", and brutal, something not in your everyday shonen manga. Heck, I wouldn't be suprised if he bites and rips off his opponent's skin out of desperation or something. That just shows how resolved he is to fight for his beliefs and friends.

It was nice to see the Shogun in a new, non-comedic light.

The fight scenes in this episode were just too awesome and epic; Gintoki is truly such a badass fighter. The scene where Sougo steps on Kagura was funny and interesting.

I'm not sure why, but Shoyo sensei's face kinda reminded me of Zura.

Most definitely just some random fucktard troll.

OT:
Sensei left everything in Gins hands. I hope there's another serious arc soon, I enjoy those just as much as the comedic ones.

And here some people actually thought Sho-chan was a puppet.

Hijikata was badass funny. Must be 5/5

Gintama is truly amazing, the way the comedy, drama and action are combined. The Gintoki versus Oboro battle was even better than last week.

Also, I'm glad Hijikata and the Shinsengumi got some screen time, and made the best of it.

sorry guys, but WOODEN SWORD can be MUCH more powerful than ordinary sword-katana, if you know how to use it ! ~
if you train professionaly martial arts you would know that/.. *o*

also BATTLE WAS EPIC !!!! if it would be longer it will be borring ! since both of them Oboro and Gintoki are badass fighters and they must think and attack quickley to beat one another, its about seconds and both of them doesn't want to make mistake.
long battles are those with bunch of mistakes and without concentration on the opponent.
I liked the way of battle ! as its unusual fired up fast and killing with great movements and graduation to the last stage when every wrong mevement can cost life.since Oboro was much into himself he didnt realised Gintoki's plan which came with remembering promise..

it gave me real feeling of battle *O* GREAT !! just great ! I am always fascinated at fight scene in Gintama and this arc proved me once again their amazingness ^_^

btw I am ok with sensei ~ since he is known as really cool and everyone have respect for him even Takasugi.. so he doesnt need to have some badass face, this one composed but cute one is perfectly fitting his image.

and for Tsuki O.o really guys you like to fantasy much XD she cares for everyone! and Gintoki cares for everyone he have many scenes with any girl from anime and not only Tsuki. also he have the most senes of Sa-chan .. but he isnt romanticaly involved with each and especially Tsuki she isnt interested in this kind of things. she is just shy for everyone.
romanticaly.. its more Hijikata XD he have MUCH scenes with him in mostly romantical places and ways XD ahh and that letter from Baragaki arc *o*
they understand each other so well yet they dont want to confrim it cause they are both stubborn ~ so gtfo with other pairings :P

Fujoshi detected. Sorry to break it to you but Gintoki x Tsukky pairing is canon which has caused an outrage among Japanese fujoshi.

As for Tsukuyo caring for everyone, sure, but for Gintoki she cares the most. Read my or DJ's earlier posts for examples. I don't remember Tsukuyo being so reckless for anyone but Gintoki or her crying out a name other than Gintoki's (that's from this episode and earlier there were more examples with her).

As for Gintoki, none of the other girls received even half the attention that Tsukuyo had. And bringing Hijikata up into this is just silly.

very nice episode! i can't believe that someone voted 1 out of 5?!! such a stupid troll~~ is he/she blind???
nobume is damn cute~ but sasaki even cuter than her, i like this couple*^_^*
anyway…sensei=sougo face+zura hair make me OTL………
sure gin-san and tsukki care for everyone, but gintoki x tsukuyo is almost obvious in the show/manga, remember red spider arc especially episode 180? though i don't like tsukuyo very much (her costume is too ugly), i still think gin x tsukki is a "fact" that sorachi put it quite clearly. and episode 166 just is a "fan-girl service" from anime staff.

I hope someday we have an episode showing the bonds that Takasugi, Zura, Gintoki (and, maybe, Tatsuma) once had.

Kintama's opening had a scene of the three Joui as friends.

Talkin' bout "OPs" I wonder if Enchousen will have another one in later episodes, since they already made like 3 just this season (Kintama (Gin/Kin style), Mantama, and the currently one)

hey man its very likely the 2nd movie will be on gintoki's past, so we'd get to see all 3 of them at least being comrades together. Though remember, katsura and likley gintoki always hated takasugi and vice versa so dont expect bonds

What mystical powers, only one in this show was for the exorcist arc back in the first series, unless you mean oboro's flat punches, which is an actual fighting style they are just adding a blue aura to it to make it look cool i guess, they did the same thing back in yoshiwara when gintoki killed housen, gintoki had a big blue aura around his sword when he hit housen. Its just for show

you really watch gintama?.. gintoki is the main character so you should probably know all about him especially his signature weapon. the wooden sword
if you dont know or dont remember..i will remind you again
his wooden sword is made from a ten thousand years old tree from another planet..
claiming to have a strength that can break a meteorite...wheither its true that it can break a meteorite or not.. its durability/toughness is beyond a normal wooden sword

but if you mean that this is the 1st time that gintoki wooden sword and the opponent metal sword break at the same time...yes your right

correction, his original sword was a souvenir that was supposedly made from a ten thousand years old tree from another planet.

All the ones hes used in the past 230 or so episodes are just wooden swords he orders online that he asks to paint the words lake toya on them so no one will notice....,...which probably explains why it breaks so much

Overkill of overkill episode! I was in drug while watching this! I woke up at 5 AM just to watch this!

Everything about the episode was so damn perfect! The consistent execution, the light comedy, the insane fighting, the powerful dialogues, the crazy action, the catchy music, the entry scenes and Gintoki's Shiroyasha mode, all fell into the right place at the right time!

This is simply the best arc ever!

This is perhaps the first arc where Gintoki actually killed another human being. He actually slashed a number of Naraku corps and then took out Oboro. I cannot see Oboro surviving that!

Also, great to see Shoyo-sensei's face for the first time! Is it just me or he resembled Katsura a lot? Speaking of whom, Zura was the only one missed in this arc! But at least Gintoki mentioned him in the previous episode so he kind of made his appearance! I am sure he was waiting with his Joi patriots just behind the castle walls and waiting for Sorachi Hideki-sensei to give him the order to move in! :D

Also, I am adding Nobume to my list of Gintama Girls! God I love them all!


Zura ja nai!! Katsura da!! -Message from Zura :))

I love this arc, the episode before this was amazing and this one just makes it better. You've got to love Gintama.


Also another awesome fight scene.

Considering how much Gintama likes to troll everyone........there might be an episode where they goto the future or see the future or w.e, only to find out that Gin and Otae end up hving children LOL. I can totally see that happening just to troll everyone who liked all the recent GinxTsukki moments xD.

Besides, when theres nothing serious going on, I'm pretty sure Gin considers every important female char in the show to be really troublesome and has every reason to lmao. Like example: swimsuit episode - He was totally checking out tsukki's body but when he found out whom that body belonged to = insta turn off xD.

I support the harem route btw D:<, coz most of the females that Gin ends up helping usually fall for him after.

Actually i dont really mind any route, even though some of them seem pretty painful (physically) for Gin. Although my top favs atm are GinxTsukki and GinxTama( Gintoki + Tama = GinTama, basically made for the show LOL).

Btw for those that are saying GinxKagura isnt possible because their relationship is like father- daughter, theres a famous saying.......girls usually end up marrying someone exactly like dad(or something like that lol), + they arent related by blood..........so its not exactly impossible D: . Besides, every harem needs a loli? LOL

Anyways, things are starting to look waaaayyy more serious now with those main bad guys(forgot their name >_>") starting to get more active and with the new Takasugi+Kamui +Miwagami(?) alliance or w.e. Cant wait for more epic action arcs with real bad guys.

Yup one of the best arcs in this whole series. Gin-chan is taking care of business. I can't tell if Oboro is dead or if he's just too injured to fight anymore, implying that the fight it over of course. Loving this pay back.

To be honest, I thought this arc would be the longest one in Gintama since Yoshiwara in Flames Arc. Cuz the manga chapters are a lot more than Yoshiwara O.o Yoshiwara has 8 eps, so I thought Ikkoku Keisei would have 10 at least. Hrmmm.... ah! At least it's an epic arc! That's all that matters!


Yoshiwara: 210-228
Ikkoku Keisei: 386-399


PFFFTTTTT wow okay I just made myself feel stupid. I could have sworn Ikkoku Keisei was longer. Thanks.

That means that you think this arc was boring, or at least nto as good as Yoshiwara. People says, the more boring you are the slower the time passes, which made it feels longer

HAH! In the previous episode thread I guessed what is written above, and little did I know that Gintoki would end up doing BOTH of them in the SAME episode!

All of this 'action' is lame...
