| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Lol, he messed up Shiroyasha with Pakuyasa. Pakuyasa is a true hero, lol. I love Gintama fights that mix a lot of comedy with them. But the fight itself was still really cool. Ah, Gintoki got revenge for what Batou did to Sakamoto. Batou and his eyeball got rekt. Fairly short fight, but a good one. And meanwhile it seems like Takasugi’s life is at risk with him falling to what could be his death… but obviously the series won’t kill him without his fighting back-to-back with the old Joui rebels. Seems like everybody’s in a bad position, especially Bansai. But finally, Takasugi’s awake!!! Yay, the hype starts now!! It seems that Takasugi was saved by Kamui. Now when I think about it, besides his fight with Gintoki, we don’t really get to see Takasugi fight that much. So seeing him kick some Harusame ass is cool. Gintoki and Takasugi fighting together is hype. And the old Joui rebels together… hell yeah!!!! And using the ED during the end part was really cool. It made me love the ED more, lol. Next episodes will be amazing!! OMG, based BNP! That anime-original bit after the ED was awesome. Lol, they replaced Gintoki with Pakuyasa during all of the key old Joui moments. Man, the art during the Sakamoto one was so bad. But it was only a couple of seconds and the content is just bonus anime-original stuff, so I don't really mind. Lol, engaged Gintoki at the end was funny, with Gintoki trying to prevent the preview from covering him up. Probably one of the more funnier episodes, yet the most hype episode of the arc. 4 chapters adapted (Chapters 570 to 573), plus anime-original moment after the ED. 5/5 |

I can't believe they actually went the million extra miles to put him in. Pakuyasa da real MVP of the war. |

| Epic episode, That OP change was hilarious. XD Pakuyasa is the real MVP here, honestly that flashback was hilarious yet it was so epic. That Gintoki death stare from behind Pakuyasa in the flashback was so damn epic. Gin vs Batou was great as well, but more than the fight what I really loved was the post fight conversation, really loved how Batou was contrasting Gintoki and Utsuro and I also love the OST they use for such scenes. All said and done in the end, Gintoki is nothing more than an simple idiot who fights to eat tomorrow's breakfast. :3 "Unfortunately, I don't have a nice eyeball like you that can see this and that, All I can do is pursue one thing in front of me" Gintoki has the best quotes man. :) Bansai was pretty heroic this episode, flashback between him and Takasugi was nice too. Kamui. :D Takasugi is finally awake, the mob fight was really awesome. JOUI 4 REUNION BOYS! Epic ending, or so I thought until I had my doubts and learnt that they decided to troll us again with an early ending. XD The post ending stuff was hilarious, I remember when they tried to do the same thing by replacing Gintoki with that alien prince version of him. XD Poor Gintoki, That rant. XD He's totally right though, this episode had such a badass ending and they decided to screw with it. XD Probably my favorite episode of this season till now. |

| One word for this episode: Gintama. I just can't think of anything else to describe this episode more accurately. |
| Best episode so far. They could've put another ED like glorious days in that scene, but the new one is fine too. So hyped for the next episode |
 |
| I DIED!! TOO MUCH HYPE THE JOUI 4 Reunion HYPE. They nailed the art on that scene. All of them looked great. The scene where Gin and Takasugi exchanged swords was fangasm inducing Bansai went in like a BOSS! Pakuyasa stuff was hilarious Ah such an awesome ep :D |
 |
| Have you ever hyped so hard that you started profusely sweating? That's what this episode did to me. Glad that Gintoki stabbed Bato right in the arm- the same spot he slashed Sakamoto!! I loved how Bato was being all like "you're gonna die! Samurai are totally empty blah blah blah" and Gin was just "I think I'll have eggs for breakfast tomoz lol" ffs tho they totally ruined the sentimentality- all those iconic scenes completely trampled over by the true hero of the story...Pakuyasa. That was damn hilarious. Oh and obviously best battle of 2017 goes to Gintoki vs preview screen XD On another note, I hate this whole watching Gintama weekly thing- I'm so used to marathoning it that it's become a method of really slow torture :/ |

| Pakuyasa the true hero! Jokes aside, I have no words for this episode. It built a big hype for the next one, the 4 Joui are reunited again after many years :D Gintoki fighting the preview screen tho xD |
THANKS SENPIEX  |
| By the way, who the hell voiced Pakuyasa? |
|
| OMG what the hell did I just see?! No words to describe this! *_* The direction for Takasugi's comeback and their reunion was... nothing short of a masterpiece! BNP/Sunrise is a blessing, the Joui 4 are a blessing, Gintama is a blessing! And they say we still didn't see anything from the epicness to come. What a time to live in! infinity/5 |
| Great episode. LOL Pakuyasa is everywhere. YOO!! Takasugi is awake. Awesome to see the Joui 4 Rebels finally together again. HAHA that ending. |

| This shit was funny hands down. Good to see all 4 ready to go. That preview tho its finally getting real over here. |

| Pakuyasa was great lol, especially the stores he opened after he quit being a samurai. Kamui saved Takasugi. The moment when Takasugi saved Shinpachi with Gintoki's sword and Gintoki saved Bansai with Takasugi's sword was EPIC! That ending was super funny, lol, Pakuyasa took Gintoki's place in all those moments and he didn't like it. |
 |
| Pakuyasa is the GOAT. Awesome episode, this show is the best. |
| Pakuyasa The Great |

|
| If this still isn't Gintama, then I don't know what it is! Seeing the four reunite was a dream come true. That sword exchange between Takasugi and Gintoki reminded me so much of F.S arc's last episode between Hijikata and Gintoki :'). I miss those guys from the shinsengumi. Also seeing Bansai preparing to sacrifice his life for Shinpachi and in the name of Takasugi was heart warming. Can't forget about what Batou said about Gintoki, how breakfeast to him is as common as the amount of death he has seen. Our Gin-chan has definitely suffered. All I can say is, that was epic! |
| Best episode of this season so far. |
| well an epic episode..and it gets better....I like how they fit in the comedy just perfectly |
 |
| Pakuyasha in the OP for the lolz.I expected they would do it.My life is complete xD.Takasugi is back and is kicking ass.The 4 Joui Rebels are finally together.Lol'd at the end.Gintoki don't try to steal Pakuyasha's important moments you were never there lmao. Also I lol'd at this one Shiroyasha -> Sugita Tomokazu Pakuyasha -> Seki Tomokazu I don't know if this is coincidence or not lol |

| I didn't care for Gintoki's fight at all. Eye power nonsense was just dumb and unfunny. Pakuyasa was at least funny. Seeing everyone coming together was epic! After credit scene was classic Gintama wallbreaking lmao |
 |
| This got to be my FAV episode so far! HAHA! and I'm sure there's more epicness to come! The Animation is also improving! well done! - Gin's fight with Batou was quick! but I do love Gin's speech "I'll fight for tomorrow's breakfast" - Seems like Kamui saved Takusugi on the verge of falling. - And YES! TAKASUGI IS BACK! lookin sexy and badasss as ever!!! -FINALLY! The REUNION! been waiting for this!  THAT ENDING! hahahaha! got to agree PAKUYASA! the MVP in this ep!    NEXT EP! Warrior3 said: Finally Kamui in the next episode along with all dat Yato awesomesauce! CAN"T WAIT! One of the legendary fights to come! the strongest father vs strongest son! |
QueenSapphireFeb 12, 2017 10:54 PM
| "Pakuyasa" lol I still can't get over that name xDD They replaced all Gintoki moments with Pakuyasa hahaha lol Kamui has come back, I hope he won't start a fight with Umibozu and instead focus on the real enemy. All 4 of them have gathered, the old Joi legends! |
"At some point, I stopped hoping." |
| damn that was fucking epic |
 |
| I really liked Gintama in the past but in terms of story, comedy, action and most importantly the MC its light years behind the real masterpiece which is Pakutama. Cool episode but I would prefer a longer fight than these guys bragging about being samurai and stuff, enter takasugi was awesome tho. Kamui got himself a bigass weapon straight out of Monster Hunter |
 Oshii is probably the only director that loves dogs. He thinks he's a dog himself. That's right, its slime! It will dissolve your clothing slowly before my eyes! |
| That ending was so hype!!!! Then they go ruin it with that sketch lmao! Kudos to BNP! |
| Pakuyasa XD Father and Son next episode!!! HYPE !!! |
 |
| Animation still bad. 3/5 |
| damn that was a grate episode pretty funny too and badass noice 5/5 easily |
 |
| PAKUYASA BEST CHARACTER OF GINTAMA EVER |
 |
| Haha, Pakuyasa.... On a related note, the epilogue was hilarious! |
| Aye I've been waiting for their reunion for years. That is all. |
| allo |
| The post-ending compilation was perfect Everything in this anime can be so epic in so many ways lol |
 |
| Idk why Gin has 20k+ favourites when Pakuyasa is the true hero of this anime. He didn't deserve to be arrested; that was an unnecessary stain on our saviour. Tbh I didn't care much about the fight. Bato's dick joke sword was way too inconsistent for there to be any tension. (Apparently Sakamoto is tougher than a building, seeing as the sword couldn't cut through him.) Good thing is the fights are short, and the dialogue refreshingly non-cheesy. Reunion was hype, next episode will be great. Budget seems to be tight, seeing as most of Bato and Gin's talk was from a uber-zoomed out crappy angle. This was a non-trivial scene, so it felt jarring. Although I don't mind if all this cost cutting means that After ED scene was great. It was high time for some 4th wall-breaking. All I need now is some budget jokes and I'm golden. |
| "That's an illegal use of a silent consonant!" |
| Joui 4 finally reunited again. It's been a long time since I heard Takasugi's OST, Pakuyasa the great hero of Joui war add him to the character DB immediately and next episode baldy vs Kamu can't wait I hope for Kouka's debut next week |
 |
| Then they say Gintama is too overhyped -_- kids |
| "Life is too bitter, so coffee, at least should be sweet..." - Hikigaya Hachiman (Yahari Ore no Seishun Love Come wa Machigatte Iru) |
| I like the Gintoki fight, it's quick and not dragged but at the same time I feel it's pretty suspenseful. I disappointed Bansai didn't die but I guess it doesn't really matter if he die or not, the last arc so far is still epic. And I like the music too.. |
| I'm too weird to live but much too rare to die. |
