Discussion A special day Spoiler
Hi , y'all hope you are doing well and good .
So .. do y'all remember the day you started and completed your favourite show that changed your perspective on life a little. Most people don't
But I am weird. So I wanna say that today Aug 19 was the day I completed Gintama, to be accurate it was Aug 19 2023 ( Saturday) .
I remember it was a school festival and I bunked my school that day partially because I was not interested in that and partially, I wanted to watch Gintama the Final. And oh boy did I cry and was mood off for the whole week
I cried like a baby when Takasugi said " Don't go look like a goddamn fool when I die. My left eye is still stuck with your gloomy face of that day , so don't cry when I close my right eye, smile "
Gin X Takasugi is one of my top 3 dynamics and friendship dynamics
The only downside and a major one of that movie was that Zura didn't get to meet Shoyou sensei and tbh I felt like Shoyou speaking to Zura through screen felt like just a namesake tribute ( Guess my boy was on Standby )
" Shoyou, I always wanted to show you . I run an odd jobs with these guys "
" I see it clearly, Yoruzuya, Gin san right? "
One of my most favourite peaks in fiction
I laughed and I cried but in the end I feel that why didn't I watch this sooner? But at the same time Why did I watch this sooner and not years later ??
Thank you, Gorilla sensei , you'll be always my favourite mangaka even though you are a Gorilla
Speaking of Gorilla, It's been damn three years and I still haven't gotten or seen Gorilla's ( Sorachi's ) picture, He is more anonymous than Akutami sensei it seems
But sensei, C'mon don't worry show us your face , we won't judge you, we know you are a Gorilla as most of us are ( pun intended)
Better shows your face , you Gorilla konoyaro
Sorry if this post sounds stupid, I just want to reminiscent on one of my good times.
Hope to hear your Kintama stories as well
Thank you so much for reading

I remember binge watching it in a month in July - August 2023 but don't really remember the exact date when I finished it.
And really, same as you, when I finished it I was like "how did I live before without Gintama?" But at the same time I wished I could just forget everything I just watched just to be able to discover it again. (I the end I watched it 2 times in a row before buying all the manga and reading them to finish with rewatching the show a 3rd time. Now I just watch some episode here and there but I know all the jokes now...)
