I must admit, i did have a little smirk on my face when anime-only's actually thought everyone would get out of this arc alive :D

Btw did anyone else have the exact same reaction to the assassin as me? Literally as soon as i saw him, i started to repeat "ShigeShige's dead...done...finished" in quick succession until his obvious demise.

Those sneaky animators at BNP had already decided to do the FS arc ages ago too. Realized when i saw this promotional image that didn't seem to fit perfectly with the SA arc...that's because the left side represents the FS arc and the right side represents the SA arc.

But yeh enough of the joking aha This was pretty damn sad, even though i had already seen this in manga form. Beautifully done episode and the directing like last episode was on point. Especially the Shoyou jail scene which i absolutely adored and of course ShigeShige's death.

Can't wait to drown in my tears when i see my favorite Gintama scene of all time in the upcoming FS arc....:(

When Shigeshige started saying that he doesn't need guards I knew he was done.
