So Kagura vs Kamui and Gintoki vs Takasugi next episode? Get hyped.
I do hope they make the animation better though. Some of the faces are funny, but not for the good reason. It don't affect that much my appreciation, but since it look like we're reaching the climax, I hope everything they got in it.

Amazing. Epicness overload.

Only complaint : still shots during fight, but Gintama has always been like this.

Seriously, serious arcs in Gintama are so awesome, the characters relationships are intense and the contrast with how goofy they usually are makes it even better. The fights are beautifully choregraphied too.

Best episode I've seen all year, along with ep 5 of OPM (Saitama vs Genos) and OPM finale.

You guys are saying next ep is in TWO weeks doe ?!

This is my favorite arc for this season. The battle scenes were pretty good IMO, they're trying to fit a lot into 20+ minutes of animation so I'm not one to have unrealistic expectations.

I'm amped for next week's episode, I'm sure it'll be even better than this week.

Yeah Takasugi vs Gintoki next episodes, and we can see some flashback from their childhood too which is one of the best part of this arc imo. I started to like Takasugi's character after this arc.
And by the way i cheer for Takasugi this time lol, go Takasugi!!

Momochi is a nice character they introduced suddenly, have grown to like her :)

Hm, i wonder if Kagura will use her full potential in this fight, i really hope she does somehow. Its been so long since the Kagura snapped against Abuto

As for Gin vs Takasugi, Gin is already injured so should be a really tough match for him and plus he hasnt found a sword yet, Where is that blacksmith girl when u need her!

Where the hell is Katsura btw, i miss him :/

I doubt she will, because she wants to "save" her brother, so there's just no way she'll have a mindsnap again.

Really? I've always sighed or cringed at the thought of serious gintama arcs. The comedy is good but beyond that the plot is shit most of the time. I just keep watching hoping serious arcs never come.

Because the tip isn't blunt and it was thrust into his throat (I assume jugular).

Yeah Gintama without serious arcs is not Gintama, just like it's not Gintama without comedy.

I love both of them equally.

Amazing episode!!! Nice to comeback and see some amazing Gintama action :D

Still weird how Gintoki can kill someone with his wooden sword. And the enemies keep failing the last minute. They could have killed everyone if they didn't slow down.

Can't wait for the next episode!!!

Sacchan getting stabbed then shot was such a sad moment T^T

It's Sachan's fault that she allowed herself to be sneaked upon - for a ninja that is utter disgrace. Even if that would be another ninja it would reflect badly on her abilities but allowing samurai to do that to an "elite" ninja who should be an expert at covert operations (so sneaking for example)? Hopefully it will teach her that she can't compare to men and will finally stay in the kitchen where she belongs.

Besides, IMO Takasugi's actions were justified. Sachan defended Amanto's puppet, someone with no real power who only helped to cover Amanto's moves.

I'm still really impressed with Gin-san's wooden sword. He uses it to cut and slash like a normal sword and it doesn't break. And it can pierce as well lol.

What an intense episode. My palms were sweating the time! I really wonder if someone will die at the end of this awesome arc. :(

Anyway, Gin-san vs Takasugi! woot!

Amazing episode.

Although the only disappointment was the inconsistent animation. I was expecting Kamui vs Sougo animation quality throughout the arc, I guess we can't be too greedy.

Also that moment where Kondo and Kagura teamed up was amazing af. Kondo has been pretty badass so far.
