| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Now Gin-chan will end up all in bandages again! Oh, and, didn't expect Itou to die that way... (if he's dead, that is). |
| Damn that was intense |
 |
| Gintoki owns them all! |
     |
| just as a nerdy side note, Itou show us textbook deficits described by Self Psychology and why wonky childhoods can make you seriously neurotic as an adult. (cf Kohut and Karen Horney) |
| Overthinking Anime a site devoted to anime and analysis. More fun than you might think. |
| Deep man. Deep. The fights were intenseeee. |
 |
| Gintoki, you beast. :D |
Life is really simple, but we insist on making it complicated.~ |
| Hijikata is AWESOME in this episode! XP! Wow... The director really highlighted Okita, Hijikata and Gintoki's fighting skills in this arc! And they all ROCK!!! XP! Hijikata's best feature was at time 4:45!! |
| Signature removed. Please follow the signature rules, as defined in the Site & Forum Guidelines. |
| That was intense... Can't wait how will this arc end.. |
| I actually cried... |
 |
| Meh, that was so cliché... That's why I don't really like the serious arcs in Gintama, it's always like that, cliché and silly. |
| I seriously felt like hitting Itou's mother. Everyone was awesome, but kokuro said: Gintoki owns them all! "King-Kong no futari" again xD |
Better said: I so love it when Gintoki gets serious. Such a Beast! |

| Gintoki is fucking awesome when he gets serious, he's so epic! _O_ I love this arc, it's one of the best in the serie so far. |
| Wow some real shonen action. |
Apologies, I just can't avoid to rant. |
| I felt Ito's story was kinda cliched, but I didn't mind it, it was nice :) Great Episode! A lot of action going on! I love when Gintama episodes are like this, but I heart the comedy ones too so I don't even know.. xD |
Anitnelav said: Gintoki, you beast. :D Gin's eyes are what got me... and besides, that's the kind of person Gin is. Lazy and stupid is his normal self, but when you need him; strong, stubborn, and so cool!! XD |
| Gintoki is awesome as shit! |

What anime isn't Cliche? Want to count the amount of work in the world? I dare say if you search hard enough you can even compare something with the Aeneid. |
| Great episode once more :) kenshin_sama said: Gintoki is awesome as shit! |
| Oh well. |
| This ep is trully awsome, Gintoki is badass XD Soo intense... |
 |
| Kinda sad how Itou died like that when they've just reconciled.. Gintoki you're as cool as ever! XD |
 |
| when gintoki gets pissed, shit goes down. He really stole the show this ep, shame about itou, i really felt bad for him in the end. |

Sad taste you have there kid you came up to me in the first place making you look more like a kid who got slapped without me even knowing it and start crying about it to me |
Hakkuei said: cliche is fine as long as it's executed in the way Gintama manages to. Man, everyone was so badass this ep.Meh, that was so cliché... That's why I don't really like the serious arcs in Gintama, it's always like that, cliché and silly. |

| has anyone else noticed that the violence level has gone up alot since the begining? i remember at one point they wouldnt even draw blood when they slashed each other, enemies just went flying. and now people are getting chopped up and theres blood everywhere. not that im complaining but its just something thats been on my mind in recent episodes. |
  |
| Gin-chan is 'awakening' to his true potential again...also that backstory was pretty tragic, no one should ever say that another person shouldn't have been born. All he wanted was friends :/, of course he shouldn't try to kill his friends, he even used himself a a wall to block the bullets. |
 |
| Pretty interesting ending and nice development in general, lets see what's next! |

Yup, and also the amanto are virtually non-existent, except in those few instances when it is comedic. The only amanto we see now are for the most part nothing but gorillas, with that whole arc over Kondo being pushed into a marriage with a gorilla, and just recently the episode with the gorilla manga artist. |
| Some parts of this post may be exaggerated. |
| Gin-san pulling out crazy stuff as always. He's just too good, I hope he will not regret it one day. Itou past was kinda sad. Still, I can't forgive him because of all the people that died because of him. It look like in the next episode, he will conclude his business with Hijitaka. |

| Can't help but wonder if that kind of bullying really happens in Japan... you know ganging up on someone simply because hes smart or simply because of jealousy.. I've seen it countess times already x.x |
 |
| Yes that was cliche but it made me tear up ;v; Gah I'm a sucker for these kinds of bromance shit. Gin-chan being badass as always too. |
 |
| Seeing the shinsengumi members die at the beginning is kinda hurting. Hearing Itou's past is heartbreaking. How could a mother hate a son and called him useless just because she wanted to blame him over her other son. How could people bully others who are just trying hard. I always think bullying smart people are stupid and for what purpose? Look cool? No, only those who do that are scum! This arc is kinda of character development of Kondo too. The FEELS are great in this episode. Gin was BA as hell while fighting Bansai but damn those stringed. I cringed a little at that scene. ITOU!!!!!!!!!!!! WHY YOU DIE?!!! TT ^ TT |
 |
| Watching Gin freeing himself from those strings was painful ;x Ehh, I thought this arc will conclude here, geat episode nonetheless. Hope for some comedic episodes soon. |
| Intense ep, Itou finally realized he had already made friends in the shinsengumi, did he meet his end? |
 |
| Gintoki is awesome when he gets serious. |
| No, Itou! Gintoki's such as badass! Next episode is the last of this arc T_T 5/5 |
 |
| Did not find this episode to my liking, the whole reconciling with the villain felt poorly handled |
| Holy shit this was amazing, Gin-san is one tough badass ! |

| I honestly feel bad for Itou... How can people be so stupid, illogical and hurt other people like that... |
| So Itou dies huh?... or not? cliffhanger end lol |
| Wow, Gin-san was a badass this episode. Bansai is interesting |
| damn... it's been a while since Gintama drama really hit my feels, but this did it. RIP Ito; I didn't want him to die. ;-; |
