Will this be only the previously uncovered conedy arcs or will they start the final arc too?
Also, pretty curious to see how they'll be implementing them after how the last season ended.

No idea about the final arc since the staff haven't mentioned anything. But you never know...

Crunchyroll will stream Gintama. worldwide outside of Asia beginning on Sunday, October 1 at 2:35 p.m. EDT. In Japan, the anime will premiere on October 1 on TV Tokyo, TV Hokkaido, TV Aichi, TV Setouchi, and TVQ Broadcasting Kyushu. The first episode will air at 2:05 a.m. JST (effectively on October 2), but subsequent episodes will air at 1:35 a.m., the same timeslot in which the anime that premiered in January aired. The new anime will premiere on October 2 on TV Osaka.

The anime will include short gag skits from the manga that haven't previously been animated. The show's staff haven't specified if the anime will also have other new or old content, or if the anime will be a series of shorts or a full 30-minute series.

Blue Encount will perform the opening theme song "VS." The rock band also performed an opening theme song for the 2015 Gintama. anime. All-female group Ayumikurikamaki will perform the new ending theme song "Hankō Seimei" (Opposition Proclamation).

First episode of the new season is up. It's a full 30-minute series again, and seems to be covering the stuff from before the Shogun Assassination Arc that wasn't covered in the anime before.

Yep, they are adapting all the funny episodes they skipped. Hell yeah, this is going to be great.

First 5 minutes and I am already having trouble breathing.

New season is out? Fuck yeah. I wasn't aware that the anime skipped some stuff. I'm guessing it'll cause some continuity errors but it probably doesn't matter.

Kind of felt bad that Bleach got the cold shoulder in reference overload in the beginning.

Is this season just non-story arcs? This seems like such a weird place to start given where they left off. lol

Yeah they are animating the comedy chapters and arcs from the manga that they skipped over because they wanted to focus on the serious final arc, but since the manga is still going (And will probably last at least one more year), they made the "Slip Arc".

Honestly I am really happy about it, some of the comedy arcs they skipped at first are amazing.

Manga Spoilers:
There is a few characters and jokes from the story arcs that haven't been animated yet, so in a way they are fixing minor plot holes/jokes

That makes sense... but if this was the plan all along, I just wish they aired Love Potion Arc normally instead of making it some OVA pack-in that people had to fansub.

I've always been a fan of Gintama but after loosing track of the episodes dissuaded me from going further. Now with smart devices that can track your episode usage, I'm back in the game. Reading the manga for 2 weeks straight and still ends up at chapter 300 for the amount of insane dialogue per chapter.
