Gintama° Series 3 |OT| It's Not Digimon Tri, But It'll Have To Do!

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.

What?
They're literally about to begin the final fight against Utsuro, how can it last a year?
