A 3-parter? Anyways, I enjoyed this episode. Loved Kagura's fight scenes and Gintoki's advertisement.

Dramatic ep is dramatic!
Kagura's blood spurt at the end, which as also the worst cliffhanger ever, (aren't they all?) about did me in. MOAR!

That was a great episode. I love how Gin-chan's heroic entrance ended with him getting eaten. I hope rumbel keeps up with this speed.

Gin-san was not so cool int this episode. He was cold to the Yorozuya and end up inside the alien, lawl. I wonder why Gintoki is inconsiderate to his friends. After some previous battle, even Katsura commented "Now he's holding [his comrade] tightly." Maybe he just want to look tough on the outside? One can only guess until the next episode.

I love this episode. Huge battles and character relationships. The alien look like it needs a serious recycle and a big dumpster.

Hehe, nice episode. Those fight scenes were excellent and Kagura was cute too ^__^ Always wanted to see her weak emotional side.

The ship inside me is also departing, saying "Bon Voyage"! xD rofl

Looking forward to the next episode ^^

When I saw Kagura covered with blood, my heart literally jumped. Wow, great episode.
Best part of episode : When Gin-san, after seeing Kagura on the news, took off for them. I threw my hands up in the air and whooped with joy! :O xD
The news-lady screaming was hilarious. And I love the Shinsengumi 'alien' approach :D

I got teary eyed with Kagura's monologue, then laughing till my cheeks hurt, especially at Gin and Sadaharu. Then Kagura at the end caught me by surprise. Most blood seen so far?

And dramatic episode... but I love Gintama!! MOREEE!!!

MAL is far from being my primary site for literature, which is why I’ve stopped doing single-chapter updates. Baka-Updates and two French sites are far superior—more detailed, complete, and less restrictive. They're perfect for manga, light novel, and book collectors like me, making the process much less stressful and tiring. -g-

I am loving how Gintama mixes in some serious/sad episodes along with the comedy. Also love that even though this anime is mainly one big comedy, there's still character development and background stories. Looking forward to the next episode.

Nice OST at the flashback. Loli Kagura was cute. >_< Her past was kinda sad, lonely all by herself.
Wow, I thought Gin went full retard back there but Sadaharu picking up that letter from Gin. Damn, Gin must have been lonely by himself before the Yorozoya was formed. >_<
Dem feels. ;_; Poor Kagura. When Shinpachi said "I can't take care of that idiot alone, So come back!!" and Kagura crying. Damn that moment was feels inducing. So heartwarming. ;_;
Lol'd at Sougo saying "Your mom is crying at home Alien-san". XD
Can't wait to see Gin fight that Alien. He kinda looked BA but what an anticlimatic way to get eaten by the Alien ROFL..
Damn, blood! Didn't thought that they would show us the blood. I hope nothing serious happened to Kagura well she has to do another 160 episodes but still...
Holy shit this arc was long. 3 episodes? Wow. Next episode looks like full BA fighting.

Never thought that Gintama could be like this, i mean with feels xD
When i first heard of it i thought that Gintama was only pure comedy and funny moments, now i realize how wrong i was and i am loving it.

That moment when the police arrived and Sougo said the same thing :

"your mother in your hometown's crying, saying she didn't give birth to make you become this kinda alien.'' @BruceLad

hahahaha that was so funny omg xD

I wonder if the alien's mother will really end up making an appearance..

I never thought something like Gintama could make me tear up, but the flashback sequence with Kagura and Shinpachi coming to stop her from leaving did just that. Goddamn. :'D

A three-part episode? Finally, a really intense scene in this show! I'm starting to realize Gintama has everything: happiness, sadness, anger, laughter, etc. It's a hell of a rollercoaster...
