THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE.
----------------------------------------
Lol at them thinking about putting the fans in the toilet. They're just exploiting the fans by using misunderstandings, haha. Lol at the commentator wanting to using the toilets normally!

Shinpachi acts all badass, just to get stripped in a second! Lmao, I'll throw all my porn mags, but not Otsu's CDs. The GKB48 looks hideous in their monster forms. Main lead looks like something from Devilman XD

Oh well, things ended well for Otsu as she got her fanbase back. They showed Otsu's performance to pad out the episode, since it wasn't in the manga. First half was really funny, second half was alright. They should've paced this arc better to take up 2-2.5 episodes instead of 3. Next episode will cover the video game one shot, and the start of the Guardian Spirits Arc (easily one of the funniest arcs in Gintama).

Looks like the last one shot won't get adapted in Porori........ I hope they do it in Jump Festa.

Great episode as always.

Shinpachi being all badass and then being throw out in a second was hilarious. XD
I did like how he stood back up and still remained a loyal fan.

Them monster forms of GKB48. xD

Loved Gntoki's speech on how idols are people pursuing their ideal dreams, that was pretty inspiring. Also loved Kagura wrecking that GKB48 center.

Otsu coming back was great and the song at the end was nice.

Lovely end to the episode with Otsu's manager commenting that Kagura shines the best with Yorozuya. :D

Post credit scene was pretty heartwarming. :)

If they're never animating the Photo One Shot...then I don't understand(they had 13 Episodes in their belt, they could have animated it this season

A heartwarming end to this arc, with GKB48 being defeated and Otsu getting her fanbase back.
People on MAL refuse to actually enjoy watching anime.

Your taste in anime isn't a personality trait.

was photo one shot an interesting chapter?..also are all the jump festas also in the manga? i haven't watched all of them..

first half was funny, 2nd was okay. ' i touched something soft that starts with cli" :)))
i can't think of another word starting with cli :)))

some recent event in manga was spoiled for me, can someone help me figure out how big of a spoiler it was? i'm so angry right now..

One Shot for Photo was hilarious(Katsura, Madao, Okita in one room) and it led directely into the Afro arc

Jump Festa 2014 was material from the manga, and the 2015 OVA was based off of the Food Wars Collab from Jump( I think)

was the Events spoiled by that asshole on reddit?

wow no i'm interested..shame they didn't adapt this..
no, i saw some thing on 9gag. it was my fault, i saw it was a page of gintama manga,( it was one from a middle of a battle, i didn't look at it tho just a glance) and i read the title. i shouldn't have, i'm an idiot..but honestly didn't except that big of a spoil

13 or 12 episodes ???

Is it really correct that silver soul will start on 7/1 ???

Because of the gap that means silver soul arc will be a separate season and not a part of the current one right ???

Also if you know anything about who is gonna make the opening and ending songs ???

And if they animated every missed chapter this time or they left some chapters because I want to read them

Sorry for the tooo many questions but I find you reliable looool....

It'll be 13 episodes

Silver Soul arc starts on January 7th

Not sure if MAL will consider the Silver Soul arc as its own entry, but they should.

DISH will be doing the OP and Burnout Syndromes will be doing the ED.

Chapter 487 will probably be skipped in Porori-hen because they don't have time for it.

These 3 episodes reminded me of old gintama but not really in the good way, it felt like one of the more middling episodes youd find around episode 50-100, the 2nd ep was the only one that really got any laughs from me. Really feels like this didnt need to be 3 episodes and could of easily worked in 2 but i guess they were dragging things out to reach 13 episodes cause the budget looks worse than any other part this season so it just reads as filler.

Well, it would've worked in 2.5 episodes, but no less, 2.5 comedy chapters per episode is too much.

It should have been 3 episodes...but have the Photo one shot be in one of them(so that the Idol arc would have been 2.5 episodes)

...and now the Studio isn't adapting the Photo one shot(which was hilarious)

Best episode of this arc. But this arc was average. At least, better than excalibur arc. I definetely enjoyed from first half of this season more. Homeless and Kagura's boyfirend arc were really good despite bad art. Especially, I couldn't still get used new look of Kagura. It annoys me.

"Something soft starting with 'CLI-' and water gushing out" hahaha XD

All those Dragon Quest references: Clift, Brey, etc. and the fans grabbing Brey's balls.

The announcer taking a shit and describing it, omg. I love it, sex and shit jokes for everyone. Classic Gintama.

I have to say this: Otsu is the worst character ever. I never liked her and never will. She doesn't appeal to me with her being the 'idol' character and her stupid lyrics that don't match or make sense. I'd take Catherine over her any day.

After 9 years they should really make another character favorite poll arc to see the characters' ranking. (Yamazaki and Shinpachi will probably once again sit and share a close relationship during this kind of arc)

I guess it's safe to say now... Fuck outta here bitch! That's literally what Kagura did The song Otsuu sang at the end is pretty great and with no interruption!

Pretty sad to see Gintoki not earning any money despite them 3 helping Otsuu greatly...

Gintama has had its fair share of weird, experimental or not so good arcs. And thats ok, in such a big series its bound to be happen. However, this is the first arc that I remember thinking its just bad... This arc and the last one have stained this season for me already. Definitely the weakest arc of Gintama (so far)
