Second part was very good. It' funny how short story can be better then longer arcs.

Aww, the second part was so touching. I really love these Kagura episodes. It's great for showing the bonds the characters have and how much they care for each other. Just like the episode with the umbrella. Loved it.

Hope that he survived.

What do you mean, you literally see him put his hand on Kagura at the end and she even said "it stopped raining"

Really really good episode, I love how everybody just joined in with the excercises, thank you Gin!
Definitely got a bit emotional at the end.

The first part was really funny. I was eagerly anticipating the revelation of some part of Gintoki's past but of course got trolled lol.

The second part was beautiful. Damn Gintama making me cry two episodes in a row. That scene of Kagura crying in the rain hurt me. I absolutely love Kagura and seeing her rarely seen soft side was great. Also seeing Gintoki acting more like an adult for her sake (their relationship is so sweet) and everyone at the end doing the exercises together was heartwarming.




I want to know what it is,
this 'sin' they say I've committed.

The first part was okayish, I don't care about that big war and Gundam references are boring for me.

The second part was very good tho, I love when we see serious sides from the main three unlike the immature ones I'm already used to. Hisashi is a nice kid btw

The first half was neat but did it really happen (not including the Gundam joke) or was it just purely a skit. Loved that sudden Gundam joke at the end.
The second half was pretty heartwarming towards the end. It makes me happy to see Gintoki and co. doing the exercise for Kagura.

I love Gintama episodes like this. With the amount of comedy throughout the series, the more heartfelt/serious tones are that much more impactful, especially with a character like Kaguya who hardly ever cries. I can only think of three times right now...

1. When she's eavesdropping on Gintoki and her Father talking about family
2. With Shinpachi after the battle against her Brothers subordinate
3. And here, with everyone trying to cheer her up

P.S. You bastards, you got me, I was getting chills in the first half of the episode, talking all about Gintoki during the war lol...

I loved this ep! I liked that we saw some war action but the ending to part A was very disappointing.Part B made me cry so much. I loved that we got some more kagura screen time. I also was not expecting Gintoki to do that. Overall this ep is one of the better standalone eps so far.

Man, I thought that we finally got some backstory on Gin.. but no, it was a goddamn Gundam reference.

Second story was about Kagura and the boy. Gintama really knows how to make you happy and sad at the same time. Can't believe how much Kagura has developed since she appeared. She became a caring girl.


It was hilarious when the characters appeared out of nowhere xD Espically Zura..

First part was good ...
And second part was really heart warming .
Such type of episodes which are quite different from the regular episode gives more character development and makes you see the character in a different way.....
That's my opinion ☺️

It mad me cry. I can't believe how much I was crying. 1st part was funny, I really thought we are getting the backstory for gin, but no a troll for gundam!

2nd part, no comments. Masterpiece imo. I never cried this much in gintama ever. This line really hit hard l, "it wouldn't stop raining until you come back". T-T
Amazing episode!!!

Plus, Kagura's part was nice change of pace.

It was a nice episode, but both stories were such a tease at the end, I was really waiting for Gintoki to appear in the first one and then the second story made it seem really sad but all of a sudden the boy appeared, after at least a year. Although Gintoki appearing in the rain was really touching.
Come on man,where is that Noragami season 3 masterpiece.We want it, Bones!

Teasing me with backstory only to reveal it to be the Gundam Anniversary part2, just to swing right into a sweet story that actually made me tear up a little.
How are they allowed to get away with this?

1st part was funny cause it was unexpected. 2nd part was not funny but it was yet another episode of showing us the beautiful side of Kagura and her friends.
If you enjoyed the time you wasted, then its not a waste of time.
