| That episode had some nice feels. This is the only thing this season of Gintama has been missing, the serious arc. I loved the direction and fight scenes this episode too, you can see Sunrise put in the extra effort to animating it this week. Oh and the soundtrack was definitely noteworthy in the battle scenes That cliffhanger though. Yaemon seems like a dangerous guy. Next week should be the finale I suppose |

| They fucking with a guy that don't give a fuck, 18th Yaemon is no joke. Pretty slow first 10 minutes, later on it picks up with the quickness. Next week get ready to welcome soon to be our new Shogun. |
 |
| "Nobody will ever take me as their bride now." "How about I take you, then?." My Okikagu-shipping kokoro went doki-doki at those lines <3 Even though Sougo was talking about taking Kagura to prison, but still. They ended it on such a cliffhanger. Looks like they'll be saving the bulk of the feels for next week... Spoilers for this arc below Edit: watched the preview, yep I definitely saw them for like half a second. |
 |
| That was so fuckin awesome. It's so impressive how the tone shifts are handled in Gintama. NEXT WEEK:Takasugi Hypu |

| Not another cliffhanger :( Pretty obvious that guy was behind everything. Also damn Gintoki was scary when he came out of that barrel XD |

  |
| Great episode, but it was mainly used as a foil to hype up next episode. I can see why'd they do that, considering... NEW ANTAGONIST APPROACHING + Takasugi + A battle between a couple groups. |
"You either die an Ashita no Joe, or you live long enough to see yourself become a Naruto."  |
| Great episode. Damn it Nobu Nobu. I hate that guy, prob worst antagonist in Gintama beside Sho-chan grandpa. Okikagu proposal was cute as it was in the manga. Keep shipping them cause there is more hints later on. Other chapters that were animated but not used as title was: Hijikata Disappeared at the End of the Mayonnaise Line and Okita Also Disappeared, at the End of the Total Sadist Line |

| That cliffhanger!!! I'm anxious for the next episode! I'm now sorta rooting for Asaemon x Gintoki. They look good together since they both have white/silver hair. Lol! |

| Great episode and damn this guy is fast. Lol at Hijikata wanting to lit a cigarette with mayo Next week is so hype.I love the Pirates of the Caribbean-esque music. Did the preview just show Next week will be amazing. |
 |
| I said it last ep but again! The OST for this arc is friggin amazing <3<3 Loved the piano OST while Asaemon's flashbacks were going on. So beautiful. Dat fart in the nose XD A new ship has sailed :P Really liking Asaemon <3 Poor Gin's head being kneed like a ping pong XD And his "I'll curse..." to Hijikata was lol Damn Yaemon's friggin insanely strong O_o Nxt ep looks HYPE >.< |
 |
| Damn, Yaemon really is OP as hell. I hope Asaemon survives. |

| |
| Takasugi o.o so I assume that kamui is in there too... |
 |
| Oh my god, OkiKagu <3 <3 <3 |
| Really like the new OST track(s). The bridge scene with Asaemon and Yaemon was very nice. |
| Now that I think about it...the content of this arc is really tragic for Gintoki.Manga readers will know :( |
|
Man, intensity is on the verge of spilling over Oh Gintoki, blame the gorilla for having a corpse's eyes  Well, the swordfight next week is a must watch  |
 |
| And the art and animation went up 2-3 notches. And dat bokuto, it looks like gold in this episode. I did expect this arc will span at least 4 episodes. Well, it will conclude next week. I want moaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaar. |
 NANDESUKA KORE? |
| Is it just me or did some parts of the opening change the tone of its vocals?? And I hear a new electric guitar chorus in the background. |
Is this where you live? |
| Does anyone know the name of the tune that plays during the Gin-monologue/flashback ? I've heard it numerous times but tried searching for it but still haven't found what it's called. |
| As always, Gintama just isn't the same when it's being serious Pretty boring episode |

| At the beginning hitotsubashis seyiuu sounded a lot like Namikawa Daisuke xd |
| How I love a game |
| The fact that I'm a manga reader didn't actually spare me facing the cliff hunger, the episode ended in a very critical moment and now I can't wait for the next one it was really thrilling!! The part when Hijikata and Okita were examining the corpse was the funniest, especially scared Hijikata and Gin's anal salute lol and Gin was as badass as ever!! ain't he the hottest when he's covered in blood ! *o* |

Gsimp said: Yes there are actually humorous arcs between serious ones but the Serious is yet to come lolMuch as I prefer Gintama when they are throwing out jokes left and right, I love it when they do the occasional serious arc like this, because the show is awesome at getting you caught up in the storyline. Question though for manga readers: With the implications of a new (seemingly evil) Shogun looming in the background, can it be expected that Gintama will be very serious for the foreseeable future, or are there still some humorous arcs that could be adapted in between serious arcs without disrupting the main story flow? |
| fucking bastard he sold them out |
 |
HaXXspetten said: As always, Gintama just isn't the same when it's being serious Pretty boring episode You're in the minority |
HaXXspetten said: As always, Gintama just isn't the same when it's being serious Its Gintama BECAUSE it has some serious |
 |
| i didn't pick this up when i was reading the manga, but theres actually a lot of foreshadowing in this arc, especially in gintoki's dialogue |
 |
| Why you do this to me, Gori sensei!? I don't wanna spoil myself but Gintama has been pretty much awesome to be just waiting the manga chapters to be animated... |
 |
| hijikata freaking out about corpses reminded me of the red kimono-wearing mosquito amanto episode. That was one of my favorites hahahh |
 |
| THE HYPE IS INSANE D: ! how am i supposed to survive a whole damn week?! -ultra heavy breathing- we can do et guys... hopefully. |
 |
| Gintama's serious episodes are so damn boring -.- stick to funny fillers pls, those are the best. |
RadiantLeo said: +1 can't believe people actually complain about the serious Gintama episodes....HaXXspetten said: As always, Gintama just isn't the same when it's being serious Its Gintama BECAUSE it has some serious Anyways another great episode. The Gintama awesomeness doesn't stop. We saw a glimpse of Gintoki's past. I wonder what crime he committed. |
 |
| You just know that Gintoki saved her at the end :) That's how he operate. Did they forgot Hijitaka with the dead bodies? Poor him, must have been spooked to death. We also now know who he fear the most x) Yay, it's time to kill a bunch of people! :D Poor generic guards, we won't remember them. They were like cannon fodder. Edit : Almost forgot, the OST in this episode was so darn good, especially near the end, with the violin (or whatever it was) and the drums. It remind me of Woodkid. |

| Head is gonna fly next episode. |
 |
| Wow what an amazing episode...cant wait for next week cuz that goddamn cliffhanger |
| Just from that little scene on the bridge, you can tell the swordplay is going to be awesome next episode. Along with a mysterious character arriving on the scene. BTW that OST they were playing at the end of this episode and last episode were amazing. Sounds like bagpipes or something. |
| 3/5 This episode was meh. Animation and art were weak. |

| Lel ppl really hating on serious arcs? Never knew this day would come. If that's the case, then just drop the show, cause later on there will be no comedy at all, serious arc one after another. |

|
| Gin-san once a prisoner. What the hell!?!? A serious arc makes the show to be more varied |
 |
| Great stuff. Liked the episode. Can't wait to see the arc ending next week. |
 |
| So i checked out the list of arcs and noticed that they are ''skipping'' (?) lots of material.I know that anime of Gintama was never going along with manga order, but this time it looks like they are not going back in arcs, just going straight to Shogun arc (judging by opening too).You guys think i should worry or just over exaggerating? |
