I have always felt Sasaki was a depressed with a fucked up history and watching the remains of his family broke my heart.

A lot of information revealed this episode, can't say I didn't enjoy. Kagura stopped those two, I wonder why...

Oh shit, so Sasaki's family were killed and that's what's fueling him to do what he's doing? Mannnn

Sasaki's backstory is heartbreaking. When he was running and then found his family killed like that was so fucked up. So thats how Nobume came to follow him. Also Nobume crying like that was really sad too.




I want to know what it is,
this 'sin' they say I've committed.

Wow, even Sasaki wanted to do something rightful but the way he did them wasn't the right one. So of course, things wouldn't go his way. Nobume crying in the end was unexpected. A girl with almost no emotions shed tears. The Bakufu joined the battle and everything is getting bombed. Sasaki's past was interesting and it's good to know his real motives and the rest.

Loved the shinsengumi backstory! But this episode felt so rushed, it's so much to process. They should have slowed down the pacing. Still really enjoyed it, 5/5 episode!

I need more Nobume action! Hmm, so that's the reason why she was looking at the couple during the OP. I thought at that time she just wants Sasaki's baby. lol They both failed in their duty to the Bakufu. I find it weird they were still under its employ. Hmm...

So, Sasaki also wants to destroy the country/Bakufu. He should've worked with Shinsuke from the start. They could've succeeded.

They should have let nobunobu die but they saved shinsengumi thanks to not letting that happens argh!
So Sasaki was basically only playing a villain role to bait out naraku/tendoshu
Still not enough to make me like him even with his tragic backstory
That said i Never disliked him anyway more neutral than anything

More flashback for the Shinsengumi and especially Sasaki with Nobume damn it's sad for his family and it explains why he's acting like that basically sacrificing himself while he wasn't a villain from the roots, now it's still up to the several fights all going at once, though Kagura stopped Sougo and Nobume's fight hmm

Shinsengumi & Sasaki both flashbacks and they were amazing + emotional. So, Nobume name was given to her by Sasaki because she killed his wife & child. Sasaki always looked sad and now we know the reason. And this guy planned soo much to start the rebellion.

Hijikata's entry was was fire. This arc is already my 2nd favorite from gintama and might have chance of becoming number 1!

So Sasaki is a good guy and that's why he slashed down two innocent women and tried to murder other people. Yeah I'm not buying that bullshit...

Compared to the last one, this was amazing. Had some sad moments and now I like Sasaki again. But why does he want to kill Kondo and Matsudaira so much. how would this help his plan to create a rebellion. 

I can't wait to watch next episode, that new "crow" that we see at the end of the opening. If he his who I think he is with that hair color, things should become a lot more interesting.
Come on man,where is that Noragami season 3 masterpiece.We want it, Bones!
