THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE.
----------------------------------------
It's Masked Roachief Black RX starring Kondou! And it sure must have been a dream come true for him to get to spend a festival date with Otae-san. But that miniature amusement park is sure to have the usual Gintama shenanigans. The Shooting Gallery, Mold Carving, and the Goldfish Scooping were all out of this world that they made me lol so hard. xD And the random skit with the Grandpa and his grandchildren were funny as well. xDD

Well I'm sure they all recognized it was Kondou behind that mask because of his voice and behavior. But that rope being tied to his neck while pulling the weight of two people using only one hand. Ugh.... x_x

Looks like next week's "Sizzle Summer" episode is gonna be a fun episode as well!

The episode was inspired by Terra Formars.

Nothing special I guess, at least the skit was funny with Madao, bitch bag, and his grandchildren.

Ye next week the watermelon chapter, and again that damn Yoshiwara kid.

Lol Roach > Gorilla?
Dat shooting gallery drama though xD

Goddess Benzaiten's White Dragon King whaaa?

Also, the ending is really Gintama-like
But I still don't trust Otae at all xD

Next ep, it's summer! Summer means beach! Beach means swimsuits!! xD

Yukata Kagura was cute

Gin's events being robbing other stalls was funny

and the Benzaiten White Dragon King Ice cream was so lol

But overall one of the weaker eps. Did Gorilla's chances just rise by 1% at least at the end??

And Mitsuba ;_;

This season's episodes sure are hit or miss, hardly any middle ground. And judging from the preview next episode will most likely be another miss.

To all the Seita haters. Yes, Seita has been appearing way too much for supporting character, having appeared for 3 epsiodes+1 incoming. But this will probably be the last time we see him cause he ain't appearing again and we won't appear in the manga for a while with how it is going.

The only thing good about Seita episodes is we get to see the two Goddesses

Surprisingly, this episode, just like the manga counterpart, made me laugh more than I should. I did expect this will be a lull episode. Next week, the 2 summer one-shot episodes. Now I'm excited for the episode in two weeks time...

Gin's greed made me laugh so hard. Good episode.
5 main aspects I base my ratings on:
1. Did DramaEnthusiast make a thread about it?
2. Is it better than Breaking Bad?
3. Did MellowJello recommend the shit out of it?
4. Has it caused a (very entertaining) shitstorm on MAL?
5. Is it actually good?

Scratch the fifth point, it's not very relevant...

The scene with Benzaiten White Dragon (mostly the ice cream part) is so damn hilarious.

And the ending credits

I was thinking during the entire episode
" Otae knows he is Kondo and she is helping yorozuya to take all his money"
Im glad i was wrong and i liked that Kondo could get some respect form Otae.

After all, Kondo's Stalking is as forgotten as Gin-san googles.

And then there's ending.

Last Thursday was the start of Obon (it ended this Sunday, as far as I know), and Obon is the time when those who have passed away visit the living, and the living relatives of the deceased would visit and clean the grave.

In a way, they were honoring Mitsuba so thanks for that.

It's spicy.....

Good episode.

It was boring in some parts, but i was probably tired and all.

Nice to see Otae giving Kondo some screen time, even though she usually brushes him off like that.

I kinda miss the serious arc tbh T__T

Can't wait for the next episode!!

A fun episode I guess. Gorilla getting more air time is always good, same with Hasegawa. Though yeah, I'm not really looking forward to next week, since they're adapting an arc I wasn't really fond of in the Manga.

Great ep, i wonder tho which arc will they animate next, i really hope they don't rush things out and animate arcs like Excalibur, Homeless and all that stuff so we get to see everything.Especially since lots of people like me don't read manga.
Anyways, next week we'll Seita again AND Soyo? well this will be very interesting to see to say at least :D

Oh, and yeah Mitsuba appearance in ED was sad...

A question guys. I have yet to start this season so I can't really say much but I've heard a couple of people say that the quality has really dropped in this season of Gintama. Is it true?

Nevertheless I'll start this season sometime in the 50 something episode range, it's hard to wait each week for an episode of Gintama.

Well that answers my question.

3/5 episode for me. Not that funny, in terms of Gintama standards.
Totally saw the Rurouni Kenshin reference though. Laughed hard on that one.

Sure, there are instances when the art is a bit off-key, but that's too be expected from a long-running series like Gintama. With that said, the animation is, for the most part, great. Especially the one serious arc we got a couple weeks ago -- that whole arc had excellent art & animation.

I meant the quality for comedy and the quality of content. Would be appreciated if you can reply to this one.

Nah man the comedy is the funniest start for Gintama I've seen. All prior seasons didn't start off, and stay, as funny as the first 8 -- that is the funniest batch of 8 episodes I've seen ever. Of course not every one of those 8 eps are roflmao funny but overall it's perfect. The next four are funny but a bit hit-and-miss. Episode 14 starts the serious arc which I loved the shit out of.

So yeah, I don't know who told you the quality dropped but IMO it started off great and is still great! There's bound to be a couple of comedy episodes that won't be to your taste, but all-in-all it's an excellent season.

You can always count on Gintoki to destroy other people opportunities while doing shady business. He really is the king of the scumbag. Fuck man, I love him.

When Kondo isn't a gorilla, he's a cockroach. Poor Kondo, he's almost as unlucky as Hasegawa. Almost.
