Ooh I think there was a reference to Tenkuu no Shiro Laputa when Kamui got called a "punk Sheeta" B)

Real highlight of this episode is Sougo vs Kamui. It was short, but a great fight. Our two bloodlusted killers.

Dayum, a lot went down in this episode. Kamui vs Okita was pretty awesome. I didn't think the shogun would die soo easily but was kinda surprised when he showed up in the end.

Sogo and Kamui's fight was intense man.. but I sure am glad the real Shogun is safe. But what the hell is really happening though? What's Hattori Zenzo planning?

For the first time ever the: "It's the SHOGUN!" was used for something serious

I haven't been super glued to an anime episode in such a long time. Goddamn that was good! Kamui vs Sougo fight is so fucking hype.

Toshirou cutting that guys leg was a beautiful moment, but Kagura saying "TOSHIIII" was just as good, haha.

While I'm glad the Shogun is alive, him being dead would have been better for a mark darkening feel.

It's been a long time since Okita was not serious during a fight. This fight was awesome, I was so focused on the fight that I could barely breathe. Okita is so strong!!!
The blood was well done when Zenzo took the head.
I wonder who was killed by Zenzo.
So much hype!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

For once Shogun Kayo wasn't used in a comedic moment XD

Wow!! This arc has been nothing short of epic so far. Okita vs. Kamui was awesome. The animation was very smooth. It was like watching a movie. It's so amazing to see characters such as Okita and Sacchan take on more serious roles and show their badass side :> I'm glad the Shogun is alive, but I have many questions. I still don't think he'll make it out alive from this arc.

Okita vs Kamui was so friggin lit.

Hijikata and Kondous saving entrance was hype too.

It's the Shogun!What a great way to end the episode and considering his backround I was expecting such a reveal.

One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron

Awesome friggin ep. The end was amazing! But like the preview said. Who did Zenzou kill then?? That really did seem like the real Shigeshige. And does Zenzou know? I'm pretty sure he does...I think ^^;

The biggest highlight of the ep was ofc Kamui vs Sogo. That was so friggin epic!! I knew Sogo is a friggin beast but to be on par with Kamui?! HOLY SHIT!
The fight was amazing and brutal. The way Sogo cut the bullet aimed at Soyohime at the start was BA AF! Loved all the crazy faces they both made.

I was actually trolled a bit. I really thought Sogo lost a hand for a second there since I heard there will be irreversible shit in this arc.

I wonder what Sogo would think if he knew he's Kagura's brother lol

The Takasugi scenes were awesome! And the way the Yato REKT the Iga clan. DAMN! XD
I wonder why the Mummy looking one is with the Shogun tho ^^;?

Some nice individual scenes were Gin stabbing the store lady/Ninja. BA!
And Kamui parodying goku XD
And Kagura's "TOSHIIIIII" was so cute and hilarious XD



This entire post above ... ditto. ^^^
My neck is sore from all the twists in this ep!

nobody is going to mention how the power scaling is completely nonsensical?
if u go by the powers levels shown to us until now, sougo shouldnt do any damage to kamui...
power levels should be somewhere like this (based on previous encounters):
Kamui >= Housen > gintoki >>>>>>> hijikata >= sougo
basing this on serious encounters in the show.

Powerscaling? This ain't DBZ. Sougo doesn't have the strength to beat Kamui in an arm wrestle but he has the wits and swordsmanship. Each side's strengths and weaknesses is quite clearly portrayed in this battle.

thats some next level reaching lol
do u think powerscaling is exclusive for DBZ? many shows maintain (or at least try to maintain) some kind of powerscaling, especially shounens. and its never based solely on physical power but overall skills.
talking about gintama now - no use try to make excuses for the show. Kamui is no amatuer who has nothing to offer but physical strength, or at least, thats not how the series portrayed him (or the Yato in general).
gintoki was portrayed as both incredibly strong and incredibly skilled.
Housen destroyed gintoki in a 1 on 1, even though gintoki is extremely skilled, because the power margin was too big. Kamui went toe to toe with Housen. are we going to pretend that Sougou is more skilled/stronger than gintoki now?

Kamui vs Okita ... just magnificent! - Who knew he could actually hold himself against Kamui, we already knew he was a bloodthirsty killer from the "train scene" but damn ...

I wonder who Zenzo killed then, either he's playing the long game and IS in it for the shogun or he genuinely couldn't tell it wasn't the Shogun.
I just dont see him being one of the bad guys ...

So many amazing scenes, loving the arc.

All according to plan ;)
“Listen well, we are different than regular people because we are born with special powers. But that shouldn’t give you the illusion that you’re a special being. We are part of humanity. Besides our rare power, we are no different than them. People who run fast, people who can sing well, people who study hard, people who are funny, and people with psychic powers. Are we different from them? Having confidence in your strength, is good thing but do not get carried away. Our powers are a dangerous weapon.” – Reigen Arataka

Perfect episode. The Kamui vs Okita was just too awesome. Sougo really is a beast.
"Don't look down on Earth's policemen" as one above poster said, this line meant so much coming from Okita.
I don't think I've been more glad to see a character alive.
