I have to go rewatch the first few seasons now to wash this trash out of my mind. I'm just going to pretend like this never happened. Only one episode left and I never thought I'd say this, but I'm glad Gintama is ending. This is bottom tier garbage that's only keeping my attention because I've become attached to the characters, but even the characterization of everyone in this series is just being chopped up, mixed around, and forgotten about. This isn't the same Gintama I fell in love with anymore. Go back and rewatch some of the first episodes, and it's like you're watching an entirely different show. How does this still have a 9.39 rating on MAL? Gintama was a completely, entirely different show during its first two seasons. Whitey cops and blacky cops are at each other's throats, killing each other, and then a few flashbacks later they're all chummy buddies who are trying to save each other. "Oh, giant squardron of elite soldiers just showed up? Too bad for them, I'm part of the Main Cast™ and I'm wearing my complementary set of Plot Armor© so it actually just doesn't matter". Nobody in this entire show right now is actually in any kind of danger, every non-named generic enemy is a pushover who dies instantly if any of the named cast so much as sneezes in their direction. Countless amounts of fake "oh this character is dead/going to die now" followed up by "wait they aren't actually dead haha jk". The writing is absolutely garbage and every character's personality and goals are constantly getting double taked. This whole arc is nothing but "Wouldn't it be cool if?." writing. OH AND WOULDN'T IT BE COOL IF SHE ACTUALLY DIDN'T KILL WHITEY DUDE'S FAMILY AND ACTUALLY TRIED TO SAVE THEM THE ENTIRE TIME?" "Oh yeah souless-eye girl is just some heartless killer who cares not for anyone, killed whitey dude's wife and child, OH BUT WAIT she's actually just a misunderstood girl who wants to be cared for. OH BUT WAIT WOULDN'T IT BE COOL IF HE DIDN'T ACTUALLY WANT ANY OF THAT AND HE WAS SECRETLY JUST A HOMELY FAMILY GUY AT HEART WHO ACTUALLY CARES ABOUT AND RESPECTS THOSE AROUND HIM?" "Oh yeah whitey dude is some heartless bastard who just wants to watch the whole country crumble, collapse, and burn. "Oh yeah we said Gintoki killed his teacher, the person that everyone respected and looked up to, BUT WAIT WOULDN'T IT BE COOL IF HE WASN'T DEAD AFTER ALL AND HE WAS RANDOMLY SOME EVIL SUPER GOD AND GINTOKI HAD TO FIGHT HIM!?!?"
