slightly more serious than usual Gintama but still great

interesting that something that appears relatively early in the manga only gets an anime ep now

That was a nice episode. I enjoy watching stuff like this in Gintama every once in a while.

Though Gin-chan's 'mama mia' was the best part in this episode XD

I also find it strange that they put a part of the OVA in the beginning. Even if it was originally supposed to be in this I think they could have done something different :/

This xD
And from the very moment that the mushroom appeared, I knew they were going to make some sort of Mario reference. Awesome.

But the ending was sad D: Although I'm glad they didn't show the 'power of love changes the bear's heart' crap xP

That scene when that guy was drinking water from the waterfall and Gin peeing at the same time. XD

Funny to see Gin and Kagura playing dead in front of Masamune.

In the end, he kills Masamune? Wow, didn't see that coming. Poor Masamune. T_T

Awful episode.
The poor, poor bear. :(

And I know the mushrooms on their heads were supposed to be funny. But since I read about ants and the fungus that control them... It's jsut gory, really.

Oh god, this is all so disgusting, I'm not sure I can sleep.
