Great episode, it had a good mix of the usual Gintama comedy with a bit of a serious tone to it. I'm really looking forward to watching more of this arc.

That was some awesome awesomeness.. even tho Elisabeth is only a ripoff from Ranmas Genma.. I still like her ..it! So that mixed with some elite action, and this episode came out. Preview of #59 looked awesome too. Nice! More plx.

That was such a great episode. They manage to make it intense yet still be able to throw in some jokes. The Golgo reference was win.

I love the way that they were able to keep parts of the show light. Gintama's always struck that perfect balance of action and comedy. I'm really excited about finally getting to see some plot development!

Amazing fight....
Awesome episode...
Sadly, this arc lasts only 1 more episode.
They should have more plot development episodes now.

"Years?" Benizakura aired in July last year.... :S
I still remember how depressed I was for not hearing Takasugi speak in 58. I was like: DAMN intro episodes!! >_< But now I watch the Benizakura arc over and over and I don't get tired. XD

Yep. I don't like Gintama when it has a plot, or really attempts much of any seriousness at all. It's just like any another generic shounen fight show.

More comedy please.

Gintama was so s-s-serious...!
I really liked the action in all this episode. The fight between Gin and that blind guy was very interesting to watch! Shinpachi sliced his arm off, and he didn't even break a scream? Wow...

I'm loving this so far. The last few episodes have been hilarious. But this has taken a more serious turn, and wow. It just shows that they can change the feel of the show, and it can still be quality viewing.

Can't wait to see more from the Kawakami. :3

The endless debate between fans and haters. At one point, after spending a lot of time on MAL, you just realize it's totally pointless.

What the heck am I watching? This is not Gintama anymore lol this is awesome. But I feel all this epicness will turn into a joke in the end..
Apologies, I just can't avoid to rant.
