I noticed two of Hasegawa's possible deaths referenced Attack on Titan and Gravity.

How can one be so unfortunate?
 
I don't really get OP's brand of sarcasm but quite liking this show so far. On like episode 50

Usually not a big fan of episodic anime but this is great.

Oh, I guess this explains the Monja gag from the Jump Festa special.

I thought this episode was a bit weak, but got points because I like Yamazaki. Next episode though...can't get here soon enough.
 
So I just looked up Monja and wow it does look like vomit.

Also so yamaziki was just pissed they skipped his episode and thats why he was throwing monja at everyone?

The reaction faces in Gintama are gold. Also best love story ever. 😎 Anyways we have Yamazaki switching from Anpan Anpan Anpan Anpan to Tama Tama Tama Tama. The banter between Kagura and Gintoki was good heck the banter between everyone was great. Also that censored Mona was hilarious.


Woo Hoo best girl coming through. Can't wait to get more Tsukuyo goodness, plus her design seems to have gotten an upgrade.

Even the Preview for the next Episode was funny

Title: "A Mirror provides a Frozen Reflection of both, your beautiful and ugly sides"

At this point, the word "frozen" only brings to mind one thing but this Manga Chapter was published first, so we decided to let it go!

I don't know how i made it trough the Time where the Series didn't aired

One of the best things of Gintama is this kind of mini stories.
I hope this season we have more chapters like this.

I was dying here, watching this with my girlfriend (Who is kinda innocent) and she asked me if I REALLY did hide my porn mags in my room like that, I told her that I used to hide mine below MY PARENTS dresser. Its amazing how much I could relate with this episode, and I even ended up using the "Mix it with the normal mags" later on, haha.

I was a dumb teen.

Tsukuyo is back and glorious as ever. Her interactions with Gintoki is the best in the series, they basically fit each other so well. Best ship if there ever was one. Keita learning his history from Tsukuyo and Gin was hilarious. I mean there were Gorillas everywhere including in the Shogun era.


That realization when you see the manga art of Ho Love Ru in the episode is actually better than the real manga art for To Love Ru.😌

Ahahahahahahaha so true.😆

Hiding your porn magazine has never been this fun.

Her comedy bits are also so great because she attempts to play the straight woman before giving up and just going along with whatever dumb nonsense Gin is doing.

The Lowcostcosplay guy is amazingly creative. Search on him on Facebook. It's not always low-cost, but his use of random shit into cosplay properties is insane.

Anyway, I just reached a point in the manga where it's actually the time stop episode. Thought that was a TV special, TBH.

Gotta say, I'm not that big of a fan when they split the episode into two 11-minute individual stories...

First part was cute, but not that great, second part was a bit better (Yamazaki and Hanzo together was a neat pairing), but I kind of hope we get an Arc soon. I realized this is one of the few Openings in awhile where there's no arc-specific segment/characters shown, so I'm wondering if we're gonna just get sort of these "filler" (even for Gintama) for the first 25 episodes or so...guess this is leftover stuff they have from the hiatus.

I am actually enjoying the standalone episodes. I didn't know I missed them so much, especially since the last season only consisted of 3 arcs and 1 standalone episode. So they can bring out 20 more episodes before the next arc starts. No problem with that.

Maybe it's the placebo of a new team, but I've felt this seasons has been pretty...weak.

This episode was probably the weakest. All the jokes fell flat, I've never liked Sakamoto (he's annoying and unfunny), and even Katsura felt off in this episode despite being a great character otherwise. Sugita playing the straight-man doesn't work out as good as when Shinpachi does it. Only joke I really liked was when Katsura did that math problem in the flashback, and the feminist dude's pretty funny too...but gotta say, I'm really not looking forward to next week if it's more of this. I'm hoping this was one of those really slow intro episodes and next week delivers.

What? This last chapter was very good, mainly, if you know Kuroko no Basket. (Phantom Fifth Man, Generation of Miracles, lack of presence, etc)
The reunion about flashback arcs in anime was funny too.

This season until now is Aoty easily.

I just started watching Kuroko no Basket yesterday so these Gintama references are very timely and pretty awesome for me lol.

Oh god, now it makes sense as a Kurobasket reference. I erased that show from my memory.

Honestly I just liked this episode because it's crapping all over the Joi stuff, which is just funny since they had an entire movie based on it. I was half hoping that the fifth man would be future Gintoki. lol

Just found this thread. I've been liking the season so far even though I wasn't too fond of the time arc in the manga.
