i love the funny episodes but i think i like the serious ones a bit more.


also, Gintoki always seems like the most immature guy but during these serious episodes he really is the most kind and mature out of most of the characters to be honest

I really love the Shinsengumi - Kondo being the father type figure, and Hijikata & Sougo being almost like brothers - they fight amongst themselves, but when it comes down to it, they’re there for each other to the end, no holds barred. And Gin is the same. I SO wanted to hug Sougo when he was crying at the end! And then Hijikata too! Gintama, how can you be so freaking brilliant at both comedy AND feels?!? <3

Rewatching this episode again ;-; and I just realized that this arc is the one who made me appreciate Hijikata's character. Before watching this arc I didn't pay attention on him that much, but after this arc and Shinsengumi Rebellion Arc, he remains on my top fav character of all time. Seriously Hijikata's character development is the best among of all Gintama characters.

What an amazing episode! Gintama has been reaching new heights the past couple of episodes, really damn good! Hijikata actually loved her, that's sad and surprising, "It's so spicy I have tears in my eyes." Feel bad for Sou, seeing her die while holding her hand...a peaceful goodbye at least, luckily. What's even more surprising, this whole arc lasted only two episodes, yet it was this impactful...that's not something many shows can achieve.

Great episode. Hijikata did love her that's nice. Great character development from him and Sogo. Also kondo, oh my god, he flipped on Sogo twice that episode and nice to see that Kondo can get very serious when he needs to. 8/10 arc.

What an actual fuck
Mitsuba actually died i thought she will recover because its Gintama you know this show is unpredictable af.Sometimes they go deep with their story.

I know this show have a lot of great arcs but this arc was so impactful and memorable.
Hijikita actually cried in the end i almost cry too.

OMG that was so emotional! I was hoping for Hijikata to at least talk to Sougo's sister!!

My love for Hijikata just leveled up. And I'm liking Kondo more, he is really a nice guy.

Rewatching this even knowing what would happen still made me cry.

The feels.. Hijikata never came to see her once and crying alone while eating her favorite food as a tribute.

Damn you gintma. I came here to laugh, not to get even more depressed.
I will say this, I dont usually shed a tear while watching anime or watching movies, but this, this teared me up. Its so sad to see lovable characters like this die in such a way. This whole arc was incredible. I already had the feeling that this would be a sad arc but I was not prepared for the final scenes. I love Gintama after this. I love the entire shinsegumi now. My respect for Hijikata, Sogo and of course Kondo san has increased to a new high. Their backstories are just so damn good and impactful and the way its connected to the present is masterfully done.

I will say this again. Its the comedy series like this where the sad moments hit harder and I am proud to shed these tears.
If you enjoyed the time you wasted, then its not a waste of time.

Even till the end Hijikata was not in front of Okita's sister. One of the best episodes of Gintama, might be best so far in the series. I teared in the end.
Okita & Hijikata's character get more much needed depth in there characters. Great arc, my 3rd favorite in the series.

Next episode, back to comedy gintama!

When I first watched this last year, I actually put a hope that Hijikata will talk to Mitsuba at a least a little bit at the end and Mitsuba will stay alive, but that's not what we got :'( Hijikata want Mitsuba to be happy with someone else that is "normal" but I wanna see him be happy with the person he loves too :'(

And yes def one of the best mini arcs in Gintama! I also love the fact that Gintoki is included in Sougo's 3 bad friends ^^

- NOT your usual shounen anime
- Pure comedy? DEAD WRONG
- Treat Gintama as SoL/weekly sitcom especially earlier seasons
- Ep 1 & 2 are for manga readers
- BIG patience for its 'slow' start

It's amazing how in 2 episodes for this arc only, Gintama managed to craft a simple yet emotional rollercoaster of a tale and executed it really well for the most part. I think my only negative is that the usage of music at times could have been reduced a bit to make the whole situation feel more emotional naturally but besides that, this was great stuff overall. It was nice too seeing Gintoki act like a bro in this arc overall after being bribed with parfaits. Nice to explore Sougo and Hijikata's character dynamics more here alongside Kondo and even Gintoki to a small degree as Sougo referred to him as one of his three rotten friends that he was glad to have. The ending too with the spicy crackers that Hijikata had was a touching way to close this arc off from his end. Shame he never got to meet Mitsuba before she passed away but given the circumstances, kind of fitting.

RIP Mitsuba.
