| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- That Hedoro tease at the beginning though! OP includes Jirocho and Pirako, though not in the place where most people expected. Continuing right from the action from the last episode. That Jirocho/Gintoki teamwork though!! The way they took down Soutatsu is super hype! Not to mention that we got some epic and savage faces from the two of them!! OMG LMAO, the way Kurogoma got rejected in his flashback was ridiculous!! I love how Sorachi’s self-aware of the fact that he forces a flashback on everyone! But that ending was really touching with Otose and Tatsugoro though ;_; It seems like Earth’s forces have been able to take down their opponents. With Ougai and Soutatsu down, the Dakini and Shinra are in disarray. There’s also the Yato tribe, but they’re next cour content. But what really matters is that we got the greatest Gintama character to return… Hedoro!!! Madao may have not bloomed yet, but Hedoro’s flower sure did. Lol, it seems that Hedoro’s so OP that he beat Ougai in the past. HAH, Hedoro’s giving them more than just a bop on the head. But then again, we’re talking about the same person who scrapes off the skin when washing one’s back. If Hedoro came earlier, 11 episodes worth of content could’ve been done in 3 episodes, lol. I love how even Gintoki’s running away. Truly more frightening than Utsuro. We get some other characters too, like Gedoumaru and Ketsuno Ana. Which means that Seimei and Douman will join in too. I swear, they have one of the best OSTs from Gintama. But Gintoki’s done something that can change the tides of this battle, lol. Hedero minus the flower means some bad business. Even if they win the war, it’s clear that mankind will still perish XD Three chapters adapted (624-626). Also, Hedoro got the highest production values in this episode. As expected from Hedoro. Some static images in this episode, but they're all implemented better than episode 349. Still has some nice animation cuts though. Next week’s storyboarding/screenplay will be done by the same person again, and the episode director will be the same as episode 343’s. 5/5 |

| God, I wish they just tell us already if there is a break or not, the wait is killing me lol(but if there is a break then I think they'll stop on chapter 633 or 637...then 6-9 month break with adaptatinf the rest of the manga, but if it continues from this season then I think they'll stop at 668 or 669 then...a 3 month break...then the rest of the arc) |
| Sup... |
| More Jirocho action was badass. Nice to see that they’ve been added to the op :) Both sides have been traumatised. Dat ending!  |
 |
| Great episode again. Jirocho and Gintoki action was great. I laughed so much when Jirocho in the flashback said, why do we need a flashback for you? XD Jirochon is such a doting father. :3 Hedero was so awesome. I love how he such pummeled all those guys into the buildings. It was so cool. xD Gin-san running away along with everyone else was gold. "This final arc was nothing but the prologue for Jump's trademark power creep system. I've had it with this! I'm making the jump to Shonen Sunday!" This is why Gin-san is the best. XD XD Glad to see the Onmyouji's again, that comparison between Onymouji's and Con-men though. XD Anyway, the Liberation army retreated and now Kabuchiko will enjoy some momentary peace. :D |
 |
| My favorite comedy part of the manga finally got animated, or rather tons of still frames with little to no animation but I'll take it. Gin-san breaking the 4th wall yet again with his comments and I loved how scarier Gedomaru was in here comapred to the manga half face one, they even added Kaguya running with her eyes wide opened, and all of them including the enemies all running away together from those demons had me laughing crazy, this is why Gintama is the best! Hedoro's return was also great! that ED killed me, it wasnt much but having Gintoki (Sugita) go *uuuhnn....* after he pulled the flower had more comedy impact than I thought it would. |

| After that flashback at the beginning I was expecting that Hedoro would make his entrance[s] it was really just a matter of time[/s [He was awesome. Jirocho and Gin kicked ass too. Former ones flashback gag was pretty lol. And I also liked the parts with Tatsugorou and Otose,pretty emotional. Good episode overall with a big victory. |

| OMG, don't tell me Hedoro will become an enemy now. |
 |
| It's nice to see the return of so many old characters that haven't shown up in a long time. Hedoro proved himself to be a badass, and the end with Gintoki accidentally pulling the flower out of his head was funny. |

| That flashback rejection lmao Hedoro was actually a true beast after all even his comrades retreated lol Really missed the Ketsuno clan as well. When they summoned those illusion creatures from the depths of hell I died. xD Cannot imagine how Hedoro will react outside of severely bleeding now that Gintoki removed his flower. Also, Pandemonium-san next week? O_O |
 |
| Only problem with the episode was that the way the Shinra died didn't feel like it had a lot of impact(especially compared to Episode 214 or the Manga version of this fight) I knew the animation wouldn't be as good as Episode 214, but you can still make impact and sound great without much animation |

| can someone give gintoki a real sword please. |

Granted this isn't completely anime staff's fault,this is a flaw from Sorachi's side as well in terms of writing where he is lacking when it comes to mid-bosses (for ex Rakuyou's mid bosses) but anime makes it worse by not giving their moments the impact needed making those mid bosses feel like fodder as well.It wasn't bad just underwhelming.Hope Yato clan also doesn't get that treatment as well. |

| Damn Hedoro might just protect the earth alone with that power. Anyway Is that pandemonium-san in the preview!??? |

| They changed the OP AGAIN! The comedy was amazing this episode, along with the fight scenes. Seeing all these characters come back reminds me of the first time watching Gintama. Judging by the ending, Gintoki is going to be brutally murdered by Hedoro. XD |

| this episode was amazing, had all the right amounts of comedy, call backs, and kick ass action. In addition to that visually this actually looked like an older episode of the show mainly due to the artstyle itself having far darker colors and more detailed drawings like the show used to have, i always kind of disliked how plasticy the show started to look recently so im hoping the show continues to look like this though i suspect its just because the events are taking place during the afternoon |

| LOL turns out the huge moron who could doom the world to destruction with one misstep....actually took that misstep and ruined their main weapon anyway i like that all that fear stemming from the Hedoro episodes actually come to fruition here and finally Gedomaru and the exorcists!! now waiting for the twins that used to own Sadaharu to show up |

| Hedoro as one punch man scare everyone on both side lol. And there is Onmyoji side who summon way too much Shikigami and scared both side too. And what have you done Gintoki! Next ep Shinpachi's love are back too... if they add army of them on next opening them i can't take the seriously anymore xD. |
| Into the Internet! |
| HAHAHAH always loved Hedoro, of course, he was gonna get some spotlight during this arc. Kagura crying at the end was kinda sweet until I saw the grave sin that Gintoki had committed. But I believe in our good neighbor Hedoro |
 |
| Perfect episode. Hedoro's power "Umibozu level" confirmed? |
| A new record 99% 5/5 looooooool |
| I forgot the name of the "ogre guy". So it's Hedoro. I've been thinking if he was forgotten, or something, since those creatures were there for quite a few episodes already, yet Hedoro just appeared in this episode. I have always liked this style in anime/manga, that everyone appears one after another, from the entire series to fight in the final arc. I have a hard time, though, remembering what exactly happened in the arcs some of them were in. I just hope they will be able to keep each of them somewhat relevant in the entire arc. It was ridiculous seeing how they made them(selves) run in agony from the battlefield. Definitely one of the most enjoyable episodes so far. I think most people think the same, looking at the votes (atm 54 - 5/5, 1 - 4/5. shame on you, whoever voted only 4/5!!!). So Hedoro has a flower parasite. I'm not sure if it's been mentioned before, or if it's a new thing. He was confirmed to be (one of) the strongest warrior from his race, and apparently he still had that strength. The moment when Gintoki broke his flower, I bursted out in laughter. It seemed like they are about to have the toughest battle ever already. According to the preview, they still manage to fix that flower problem somehow, since they are alive and well. I'm looking forward to the next episodes. It's so rare, when the final arc feels so amazing in an anime. |
| I almost laughed myself out of breath. I guess there are many ways to incite fear into enemies, some of which have an equally shattering effect of allies. Hedoro, for an example. It was hard to decide who had the upper hand during the resulting exceedingly hasty retreat. However, it was undeniably hilarious. |
| this episode was freaking great, everything was great from beginning to end, art was great, action was great, blood was great ( although they censored it again lol ) , comedy was awesome,flash backs were awesome, 4th wall breaking was awesome, old characters showing up was awesome, even preview was great! 349 wasn't sacrificed for 350, both were sacrificed for this episode and probably the next one :)))) also RIP gin san.. you will be missed XD |
 |
| @gilanggifari02 Yes |
| An episode with some complaints about still-shots and minor dialogue cuts. 67 votes 5/5s and 1 vote 4/5. Yes, that's how good Gintama is. |
| We finally got Hedoro's backstory !! More Kabuki epicness and the return of the Omnyoji (Ana and Seimei are two of my favorites !). |

I mean farewell shinsengumi did have the slightly disappointing looking "utsuro vs everyone" battle (minus Utsuro vs Gintoki which is some of the best animation in the series). FS had several amazing looking episodes though, and the art particularly was crazy good most of the time. The boat fight looked pretty dang good, nobume vs sougo was great, hijikata vs sasaki was great, Utsuro VS Gin was great, and kondo+hijikata vs oboro was great. Plus the first episode of the arc looked like a movie and the last episode was close to that level. Still you may have a point about yoshiwara. Everything was fully animated almost, with the only real exception being parts of gin vs hosen I believe. And that's a hell of a feat. Especially with how good kagura's battle looked, and how consistent everything was, as you mentioned. https://www.sakugabooru.com/post/show/19100 https://www.sakugabooru.com/post/show/18969 |

GoldenDevilGamer said: crystalblade13 said: The animations for Gintoki vs. Housen was spectacular. Some of the best animation Gintama ever had.That's a fair point. I mean farewell shinsengumi did have the slightly disappointing looking "utsuro vs everyone" battle (minus Utsuro vs Gintoki which is some of the best animation in the series). FS had several amazing looking episodes though, and the art particularly was crazy good most of the time. The boat fight looked pretty dang good, nobume vs sougo was great, hijikata vs sasaki was great, Utsuro VS Gin was great, and kondo+hijikata vs oboro was great.
