Woh!!! They wrapped up the Silver Soul arc pretty fast!! I thought they would use 12 episodes to do it; but they finished it in just 8 episodes. Yeah BNP did a rush job with this, I think they went way too fast after a steady start. Well the manga has only 4 chapters left before it comes to conclusion. So i am thinking how are BNP gonna adapt the post time skip arc, considering if this 2nd part of Silver soul arc was also of 12 episodes, I don't think they can wrap the entire post time skip arc within 4 episodes. Either they complete it by extending the number of episodes, or they could simply rush through the scenes to speed up, or simply end the show in a cliffhanger!!!!!

Incredible animation and fight sequence. So many feels, I'm going to watch the episode again!

Really really well done, kudos to Gintama and what it's done for us. Loved Shouyo holding back Utsuro, it was simply a symbolic way of saying.. this time you've lost it because of what you created.

Frankly, I also was surprised that there's going to be a time skip next week. Very excited and extremely sad that such a massive show is finally parting ways.

Can anyone explain if Utsuro died or not
“Humankind cannot gain anything without first giving something in return. To obtain, something of equal value must be lost. That is alchemy's first law of Equivalent Exchange. In those days, we really believed that to be the world's one, and only, truth. But the world isn't perfect, and the law is incomplete..." -Alphonse Elric

"Then and now, what I protect has never changed!" -Sakata Gintoki

I'll take anything like The Pet Girl of Sakurasou. Anything as good as that.

Well, without spoiling anything, just remember what Utsuro is made out of and what Utsuro fell into. It will be clarified later in the series though.

The flashback relating to Sadaharu really just makes me want to hope that he and the Yorozuya can just get back to how they were during peaceful time!

Like the previous ep, this ep got a ton of fast-paced and intensely amazing fights. As per usual to Gintama, everyone hands in their help, in this case giving their life energy so Sadaharu can maintain the Altana gates to be closed. This is really why unlike the prev ep, this ep Utsuro really got his back pushed against the wall by the teamwork of the Yorozuya, Kagura's family and the top 3 Shinsengumi. But of course, Utsuro can still withstand even with no immortality or rapid regeneration.

WHAT? Instant time skip to 2 years forward? This is a first for Gintama!
Shinpachi did what Gintoki did back in ep 3! That's cool to see, but what's even better is that this sort of personality is exactly how Shinpachi in the 2nd movie turned out to be in the future.

An amazing follow up to last week's episode. Everyone vs Utsuro was amazing and it was so emotional seeing the flashbacks with Sadaharu. I'm so happy everyone contributed to the fight and it didn't just become Gin vs Utsuro like it would've in most shonens. I got cried during the credits when I realized that we'd never see anyone again pre time skip. The way the end mirrored the first episode was amazing.

Just all around 10/10 episode.
From the fight to everyone helping out to stop the Altana to eventually beating Utsuro.

Honestly, I dont understand how Edo could be like this AGAIN after all that they went through, the war and everybody having a singular goal.
Surely they'd learn from their mistakes and not end up in the same way the anime started, Amanto ruling the streets.

That was absolutely phenomenal and beautiful. I cried with the Sadaharu flashbacks and him nearly disappearing. Everyone coming together to give power to Sadaharu through their life energy and fighting against the remaining enemies was awesome. Loved the teamwork of Yorozuya, Kagura's family and the Shinsengumi 3. Their fight against Utsuro and their faces while stabbing him were so amazing. Loved Utsuro's monologues during the fight and the appearance of illusions of Shoyo and Gintoki as a kid. It seems pretty late to say it now but I love Utsuro's voice, it fits him perfectly. Loved the whole aspect that humans fight their own weakness to prevail and that Utsuro fears this humanity.

So now we have a timeskip to two years in the future. Damn Shinpachi looks really cool and him acting exactly like Gintoki did in the first episode makes me excited to see what really happened but sad too because it hits hard that the end is approaching.

Fantastic episode, best of the arc. Animation was incredible, and utsuro continues to improve as a villain.
So I'm a bit confused, was that the end of the arc? With the ime skip it seems we're going into something new for these last episodes and the movie. Well if that was the end then this arc was legendary, a 10/10 or really close to it. Excited to see the future of kabuki district.

Oh man, what a grand spectacle (not in terms of visuals) of an episode, I love it.
And that throwback to episode 3 of Gintama, oh the memories... But instead of Gintoki, it's time skip(?) Shinpachi, very cool!

Gintama went traditional action shounen, but did it well! The investment you put into these characters along these more than 300 and all the adventures and daily antics you lived with them, all the laugh and all the cries, just make you feel the struggle of this battle all the more. These last 2 episodes were simply outstanding.

I thought I ran out of tears but I was consistently pouring water out of my eyes this ep LOL. Beautiful episode. I'm pretty sure Utsuro isn't dead yet since he went back into the Altana (And there is 6 more episodes lol) which pisses me the hell off. Also timeskip Shinpachi looking fine af though

From the preview last ep. I thought they were gonna do their Gintama version of spirit bomb. I guess I was wrong. Anyway, I'm pretty sure Utsuro is still alive somewhere down there.

I wonder what happened to Sadaharu, he suddenly became a shooting star.

Post time skip! Shinpachi is the new Gintoki. He looks badass!

Wasn't expecting Utsuro's defeat like that tbh, it was pretty nicely executed, but I thought it might have been drawn out a little longer. So a time skip now, wonder where they going with all this? Only six episodes left and a couple of specials/movies to go. Still, this half has been much better than the first half.

Utsuro finally down ? He went to altana so i expect him to be back but hopefully not the case.
Ayo what ?? Shinpachi is cool now ?

The daily life moments with Sadaharu :S it hurts in this situation, also nice to get more background part for Utsuro and how he sees Gintoki, but now it's everyone vs Utsuro basically and he ends up falling in the altana pit while the ship is crashing on Edo... that full ED part is not reassuring at all for sure... that time skip though?! And two years later Shinpachi is basically Gintoki for how they 1st met wow

I don't even know what to say. I was so so caught by surprise after that end. Amazing last episode of this arc, even if the season isn't over. Everything was just badass, from Utsuro being himself, Shoyo flashbacks and the scene with kid Gintoki. The beginning with Sadaharu was also sad. I didn't really like the whole "take my power!" part, but the episode recovered itself with that send-off by Utsuro, jumping down in the Altana after saying those words.

AND THEN IT JUST ENDS???

I never thought there would be an actual time skip in Gintama and that's why we got one in the movie, but this sure is interesting, although I really wanted Gintoki to fight alongside Takasugi and Katsura at the end. I can't wait to see what will happen with everyone.

Also, Shinpachi looks much better now, lol.

That was RAW. I felt the power in this one. I always preferred the comedy heavy episodes to the story/action heavy ones, but this is still one of the greatest episodes in the series. One of the greatest episodes in all of animation. Fantastic.
