Evil never dies 😮💨
Only killed by heroes! We need more Luigis in our world.
Evil dies comfortably in a bed at the age of 100.
If only it was one man that was responsible and not the majority of an entire culture.
There’s a whole line of auxilliary backup old men waiting in the wings. Thinking it’s just one man is dangerously naive.
That episode made me cry, I wasn’t expecting out given how silly that arc started off. I kept metronoming between laughing my ass off and fighting back tears.
It’s a two episode arc the scene from that screenshot is in the next episode. The show is pretty episodic so while there is an overarching plot you can just jump in on those episodes and be fine.
This skirt, and the sad radio segment about a dog with a twist (from the insomnia episode), are two of my favorites from the whole show.
Yeah that Jerry episode 🥹
I love Gintama. I’m rewatching without subs to help my Japanese learning by immersion and there’s so many gags I’ve completely forgotten. It’s nice because I get taken by surprise again
Damn that’s awesome! Knowing the amount and the speed of speech in Gintama, your level must be really high! I’m stuck with something easier and slower for now😅
Hahahahaha not at all. I’m barely picking anything up but I was watching Doraemon and I was only getting the same 30% of the words so I just decided that if I powered through Gintama I might end up picking up more. I’m about 30-40 episodes in because I skipped around and boy has it not made any difference.
I actually recommend this podcast. I found it when I first started learning Japanese by using Google Translate to look up “Pokemon podcast” and clicked the first result. I liked it even though I didn’t understand anything so I watched another episode and that’s where I found out that not only is it not a Pokemon podcast (they only did one Pokémon episode), it’s called the Badonkadonk podcast and the dude is from the US and starts every episode off by saying Daaaaayyyuummmmm that’s a badonkadonk! before continuing the podcast in mostly Japanese. Over time the intro has turned into him referencing some pop culture references but replacing words or actions with badonkadonk and the woman tries to guess the reference.
It’s great because his Japanese is more basic, he randomly breaks into English which gives me more context, and he speaks a bit slower. I’m usually able to understand 15-40% of it and I’ve noticed a lot of the words I’ve learned from Anki show up so it reinforces the learning. They’re both comedians so the bits I’m able to pick up usually crack me up.
This is my cat.
Great episode, its dubbed now, up to 150 with 150-200 finished. Gintama suprisingly works well with a dub, imo the sub didnt get good til around episode 80 for me while the dub gets good earlier by around episode 30, with some decent episodes before it. The localization helps and gintama is a better show when you dont have to look at the screen 24/7 imo, very dialouge heavy, almost feels like watching a podcast. 100-150 were all really solid for dubs, felt like theybhit their stride.
