BN Pictures finally got a proper logo and I'm happy for them.

I'm kind of dumb with voices, but please tell that actually was Kensho Ono voicing Kurokono in the episode.

I take it you don't want my autograph, then.


Yes. He'll have more lines next week, too.

The original broadcast had the first opening of KnB playing in the background during the preview, it's a shame they have to edit that stuff out for the stream release.

I'm not looking forward to the r63 arc. Like kokkurisan was way out there when that happened but at least I know it is coming in this show.

Yeah, true, I'll admit I got a few laughs out of that arc, but it's still questionable overall.

Anyways, what's a clip you would show to a person who has never seen Gintama? Because this show has quite possibly the best clips that can't possibly encapsulate what the whole show is about.

My personal favorite: THE PENILE BRAKE.

That outfit will show up again from time to time, but its debut is in 56, which is a stand-alone episode.

These two are among the best. There was also the one with the HAADO BOIRUDO detective dude where they end up chasing a ninja across a mansion.

Alternatively, show him a silly AMV like this one.

Can't believe how long I've been watching Gintama I even watched the first episode in Tokyo when it was on TV, I didn't understand a word but found it awesome for some reason.

If you have not watched Gintama give it a try its a bit hard at first but think of it like watching The Simpsons or Family guy from season 6, there will be inside jokes from earlier episodes but its still loving funny

The Gintama staff goes all out when it comes to make the dumbest and most amazing 4th wall jokes. The Popularity Poll Arc was an art form when it comes to this.

I wished I paid more attention to the credits before, because there are a lot of good gags in the voice actor roles I've caught only a rewatch. Some of my favorites are Elizabeth getting credited as "an old man was in the neighborhood" (へんにいたおっさん) in the silent movie episode and the name of who'd you expect in the Jugem two-parter.

The Saint Seiya OST and ED song in episode 282 got replaced for the stream broadcast, but here's the original version of the latter if you're curious.

Bringing back the Kaien theme was a pretty solid choice of a subtitute though.

By my count, this is their 3rd "final season" in a row. I assume they'll stop when they run out of material and/or budget, and pick it up again later, same as before. That said, I'd be surprised if they don't finish the arc with the shogun and ninja, at least.

I hope so anyway because that arc loving owns.
