Haha, Stalker Santa's. My favorite moment of the episode was Umibozou stepping off the ship with blood all over him. I loved the Freiza reference, though I actually preferred his final form.

This is going to be an amazing battle for the title: King Santa. Also is it just me or was it the soldiers from one of Katsura's fantasies at the end?

A pretty random episode about who the real Santa is and with the next being the last episode I don't think the ending will go off with a blast...

At first I was like wasn't there another santa back then with his personal reindeer?

Then gintaki and kagura's father insisted that the other person was the real santa

So, who will win the Chrismas fight? Gintoki or Umibouzu? Or someone else..? And what's up with this really weird preview?!? xD

Im noticing that Kyuubei is becoming sillier as the episiodes go by. Back in the yagyu arc i never would have imagined her claiming to be "Kyuta Claus". Also, even tho this isnt a serious episode, im really impressed that she was able to stop Umibozou and Gin in their tracks. I hope she appears in some serious arcs in the future cos she seems really strong, but im not sure how strong.

Monkey claus made my day, but i was really hoping for a Zura Claus.

And after 15 almost-entirely sleepless days, I've reached the second-last episode.
Even though at this point I'm well aware that there are literally countless sequels and movies to watch after the original series ends, I still feel sad ¯_(;;;ツ;;;)_/¯
On the topic of the actual episode though, I thought it was adorable (and funny, as always) in a weird, weird kind of way. I don't know. Gintama's taken my sense of humor and replaced it with broken justaway clocks.
Good at offending and bad at letting things slide.

in true Gintama fashion, we get this ridiculous short arc to round off the series.
I'm not even complaining, it's been funny so far!
also "Gin-Santa" made me laugh more than it should have.

Omg that's really the typical Gintama.

5 different Santas although 3 of them are to obvious :D
That One Piece reference with King Santa or Dragonball Z with Friezas final form were so good.

I'm not sure what will happen next episode, but it will definitely epic :P

Even watching in 2018, knowing this next ep isn’t the end, I still feel sad for some weird reason! Of course I’m expecting them to break the fourth wall next ep after they finish the Santa story, & I plan on having tissues ready. I know I’m such a dork. I’ll be starting the next series of eps right afterwards, so why am I sad? LOLOL PS: I agree with others we need a Zura Santa! :)

Girl to Dad: "Which part of the universe are you shedding hair in?"

A fun small arc to end Gintama. A battle for the title of Santa. Every *main*character appeared but where's ZURA? AND TSU? I want them to be there too :(


The ''Huh'' when Umiboze saw Gin cracked me. One more ep left.

Even if i hate xmas, Gintama is so good that it makes it more tolerable, straight up from the cold opening, remembering the times when i was in Kagura's place in the early 90's looking at those toys stores magazines. Poor her with that "gift", lol.

Why is Madao at the same table with the Shimura siblings and her, however? It's not explained, but it's easy instead to do the same about why their food is so small and poor. And then... It escalates quickly.


Gintoki interrupting the opening credits was funny too

I'm so happy this battle is only between Umibouzu and Gin, the first part of the fight was amusing. That 1 on the end screen looked too scary. I guess there's only one episode left, but I was expecting a special episode as the final one instead of a continuation to a random funny idea.

So the last two episodes are going to be a fight for who gets to be Santa. One more episode left and 1st season is done.
If you enjoyed the time you wasted, then its not a waste of time.
