Gintama anime ep 318/manga chaps 555, 556, 557, & 558
Dear Gintama gods and Sorachi-sama,
To spare you the ordeal of reading even more lengthy letters from me when I had already written to you previously about each chapter, I will instead share with you what I am especially grateful for in each episode during this new season. I am as always thankful for your tolerance and most importantly for granting us the gift of Gintama. Please don’t let this be the last season of the show.
I am thankful for the following:
- Kagura, for always having her priorities straight.
- A good cry…since that is what this scene granted me. I got weepy when I first saw it in the manga, got weepy all over again seeing it in the episode. Hurt my heart like crazy.
- the inclusion of Sadaharu’s leave letter. OMG, getting weepy again. I should be used to this by now but nope, this scene with the leave letters still kills me.
- a CLEAR view of Bansai without his sunglasses which was NOT a part of the original chapter. Very happy about that change. He actually reminds me of Hijikata. Too bad the glasses went back on almost immediately.
- our little girl all grown up and ready to protect her two families. SO. PROUD. OF. HER. [Hysterical Sobbing]
- Nobume. She’s just so sweet. I want her to officially be a permanent part of the Yorozuya family by marrying Shinpachi. I will ship ShinNobu until the end of time and I don’t give a damn if it’s a borderline crack pairing. Just hearing him call her name in that sympathetic tone of his made me so happy.
- Takasugi’s carefree, smiling face. I still hope we will get to see that one day.
- these badass losers. Look at how awesome they are! So proud of them!
- NobuNobu’s very punchable face. At this point, the only remotely attractive quality about him.
And finally, my favorite manga to anime scene, and I promise I will really limit it to just ONE scene:
Yours truly,
A silly fangirl with yaoi dreams
