[05:05] Takachin     So we still have a chance! [05:10] Hijikata     So this is what they mean by running into Buddha in hell. [05:13] Hijikata     You've been saved by Otsu-chan... [05:16] Hijikata     Members of the Tsu Terakado Fan Club. [05:19] Hijikata     Well, it just means that you get to survive a little longer. [05:23] Hijikata     The outcome will be the same, no matter what the contest is. [05:28] Hijikata     The fact is that you people can't defeat me. [05:33] Hijikata     I'll see you on the stage. [05:35] Hijikata     I'll send those drooping heads flying off. [05:42] Shinpachi     Wait. [05:44] Shinpachi     Toshi. [05:46] Shinpachi     No... [05:47] Shinpachi     Hijikata-san. [05:49] Shinpachi     You aren't Toshi. [05:51] Shinpachi     You're Hijikata-san, aren't you? [05:54] Shinpachi     Toshi is a cowardly otaku. [05:57] Shinpachi     He would never barge into the enemy's territory. [06:01] Shinpachi     And I don't remember him laughing so obnoxiously. [06:05] Shinpachi     And most importantly of all, [06:07] Shinpachi     he would never smoke cigarettes! [06:15] Shinpachi     Hijikata-san, what are you plotting? [06:19] Shinpachi     Posing as Toshi and making contact with otaku... [06:23] Shinpachi     Gathering all those otaku together to make a huge faction... [06:27] Shinpachi     And aiming to become Otsu-chan's official fan club on top of that... [06:31] Shinpachi     What is your objective? [06:34] Shinpachi     What are you trying to do? [06:38] Hijikata     As you all know, Toshi was born after I laid my hands on the demon sword. [06:44] Hijikata     A Toshiro Hijikata with his pathetic otaku characteristics amplified via a curse. [06:50] Hijikata     He isn't a different personality I created. [06:54] Hijikata     He's the real Toshiro Hijikata. [06:56] Toshi     Mr. Hijikata! [06:57] Hijikata     But despite my acceptance, [07:00] Hijikata     he attempted to separate from me as a separate personality [07:03] Hijikata     and sealed himself deep inside. [07:04] Toshi     Mr. Hijikata! [07:05] Toshi     Wait, Mr. Hijikata! [07:06] Hijikata     He would probably disappear eventually. [07:08] Hijikata     That's what I thought. [07:10] Hijikata     But I kept waiting and he never disappeared. [07:15] Hijikata     He's still waiting with sharp eyes to take over my body when given the chance. [07:23] Hijikata     Can you understand? [07:25] Hijikata     How I felt after getting my hands on a nice cabinet [07:28] Hijikata     and looking forward to what I might put inside, [07:31] Hijikata     only to find it filled with pretty girl anime DVDs before I knew it? [07:39] Hijikata     Can you understand? [07:41] Hijikata     How I felt when I was preparing to head out into battle, [07:45] Otaku A     Oh, Mr. Hijikata. SIGN    [Otaku Attack] [Note: Parody of the title of Neon Genesis Evangelion TV episode 1.] [07:50] Hijikata     only to be corralled by friends I didn't know to an hour long discussion about Ovangelion. SIGN    [Note: Parody of Evangelion.] [08:03] Shinpachi     That's enough. [08:06] Hijikata     I'm tired of the days of fighting. [08:10] Hijikata     Fighting on the outside, fighting on the inside... [08:14] Hijikata     When will I be able to rest? [08:17] Hijikata     Even if the demon sword was the catalyst, [08:20] Hijikata     he's still part of my personality. [08:24] Hijikata     I didn't refuse the fight. [08:27] Hijikata     I chose to face him head-on and talk. [08:31] Hijikata     "I don't want to disappear without accomplishing anything. [08:34] Hijikata     I want to leave proof of my existence." [08:37] Hijikata     That's what he said. [08:39] Hijikata     This is Toshi's dream. [08:43] Hijikata     My way of paying tribute to the departure of someone I gave birth to. [08:49] Hijikata     I will master the way of the otaku! [08:53] Hijikata     I will unite all otaku and become the king of otaku! [08:59] Hijikata     And etch proof of his existence into this world...into people's hearts! [09:06] Hijikata     I won't stop. [09:08] Hijikata     To help him rest in peace and to regain full control of this body, [09:12] Hijikata     I'll conquer the otaku world! [09:15] Shinpachi     Hijikata-san... [09:17] Kagura     Hey, Gin-chan. [09:19] Kagura     What's the king of otaku? [09:21] Kagura     How do you become one? [09:22] Kagura     Do you have to get a license somewhere? [09:25] Gintoki     You can get one at the school in la-la land. [09:29] Hijikata     The top idol, Tsu Terakado. [09:31] Hijikata     With her in hand, I can stand at the top of all otaku. [09:36] Hijikata     My long battle will finally be over. [09:39] Gintoki     In hand? You're just going to be her fan club. [09:42] Gintoki     Yeah? Do you people understand? [09:44] Hijikata     Will you still try to stop me? [09:47] Hijikata     Will you interfere, knowing that this fight is for establishing my own existence? [09:55] Shinpanchi     Sorry, but I can't hand Otsu-chan over to someone who doesn't even love her. [10:00] Gintoki     Hand over? She was never yours to begin with. [10:04] Gintoki     I'm starting to repeat myself, but this is just a little fan club dispute. [10:20] Hijikata     That's what I thought you would say. [10:23] Hijikata     It appears that this battle was inevitable. [10:26] Shinpachi     It's the fan club's duty to protect the princess to the very end. [10:33] Hijikata     Stop my conquest if you can! [10:38] Shinpachi     Let's finish this, Hijikata-san! [10:43] Both     I'll be the one to become the Tsu Terakado Official Fan Club!

[11:20] N     The pianist battle to decide Tsu Terakado's official fan club! [11:27] N     Okay, so we're on our way. [11:30] N     What do you think, Otsu-chan? [11:32] N     Impressive showing, right? [11:34] N     Five thousand fans gathered here for you! [11:38] Otsu     Wow! Amazing! [11:39] Otsu     Everybody! [11:41] Otsu     Thank you! Suicide dive! [11:43] N     This is after we narrowed the numbers down significantly. [11:47] N     So from the five thousand people gathered here today, [11:50] N     in other words, from the 1,250 teams of four, [11:54] N     only one team will be chosen. [11:55] N     Only four of the five thousand people here will be able [11:58] N     to win the honor of becoming members of Otsu-chan's official fan club. [12:03] N     Well, this will be a difficult wall to climb. [12:06] N     How excited is everyone here? [12:09] N     Do you want to become Otsu-chan's official fan club?! [12:17] N     Are you willing to put up with any ordeal for the sake [12:19] N     of becoming Otsu-chan's official fan club?! [12:24] N     Are you willing to go anywhere for Otsu-chan, whether it's into fire or into water?! [12:32] Gintoki     Would you be able to eat Otsu-chan's ****?! [12:40] Staff A     Wh-What's wrong with those people?! [12:42] Staff A     How can they say that stuff on a live broadcast?! [12:45] Staff B     They still managed to beep it just fine.

[12:52] N     Tsu Terakado's long awaited single is on sale now! [12:56] Gintoki     Okay. [12:57] Gintoki     This is a pain, so let's go right to the final challenge. [13:01] Gintoki     We're going to distribute some of Otsu-chan's **** right now. [13:04] Gintoki     The team who finishes eating first wins. [13:07] Kagura     Whenever you're ready! [13:10] Guy A     What kind of challenge is that?! [13:11] Guy A     And how much **** do you think Otsu-chan can put out?! [13:14] Guy B     Stop ridiculing Otsu-chan! [13:16] Guy C     Otsu-chan doesn't **** or fart! [13:18] Guy C     Get lost scum! [13:21] Gintoki     You're the ones who should get lost, brats. [13:23] Gintoki     When you love a person, [13:26] Gintoki     that means you also love the dirty stuff about her. [13:29] Gintoki     When you pretend she doesn't **** and ignore the dirty stuff, you're out of the question. [13:35] Gintoki     Get out of here, cherry boys. [13:37] Gintoki     Our boss here boasts that he can down eight whole plates. [13:42] Gintoki     You people won't be able to beat our Tsu Terakado Fan Club in this lifetime. [13:47] Shinpachi     Uh, could you stop making stuff up? [13:52] Guy A     The Tsu Terakado Fan Club? [13:53] Guy B     They're the legendary... [13:55] Guy B     Impossible. [13:56] Guy B     I heard they were destroyed by a rising new force. [14:01] Guy A     I didn't expect them to still be around! [14:07] Guy C     This isn't funny! [14:08] Guy C     I came because I figured I had a chance, since they were gone! [14:12] Guy F     Eight plates isn't humanly possible! [14:14] Guy F     I was expecting one plate at most, which just shows he's on a whole different level. [14:18] Guy A     I'm the first one out! [14:19] Guy B     Second! [14:21] N     Oh, this is a surprising scene. [14:24] N     The appearance of the Tsu Terakado Fan Club has led to teams giving up one after another! [14:29] N     The Tsu Terakado Fan Club is a fearsome force! [14:32] Security     What are you doing?! [14:33] Security     Get down here! [14:34] N     Overwhelming other teams without even fighting! [14:36] N     A good portion of the teams have taken flight after that scat talk! [14:41] Shinpachi     Gin-san, I appreciate this. [14:42] Gintoki     You understand, right? [14:44] Gintoki     I don't care about the membership cards. [14:46] Gintoki     The reward money is all mine. [14:49] Kagura     What are you talking about? [14:50] Kagura     The reward money's mine. [14:52] Kagura     That's why I listened to Otsu-chan's songs over and over until I could sing them from memory. [14:58] Kagura     Your big brother's a hi- [15:04] Gintoki     Are you stupid? Dying? [15:05] Gintoki     This isn't a singing contest. [15:07] Takachin     Hey... [15:08] Takachin     Shin-chan, are these people really going to work? [15:11] N     Uh, cut the chatter. [15:13] N     Tsu Terakado Fan Club, [15:14] N     if you pull something like this again, you'll be immediately disqualified. [15:18] N     Well, we had an unexpected disruption, but please calm down, everybody. [15:23] N     Otsu-chan, are you okay? [15:25] Otsu     U-Um... [15:26] Otsu     Yes. [15:27] N     Sorry about embarrassing you like that. [15:30] N     But everybody who stayed is able to eat Otsu-chan's ****, so you don't have to worry. [15:35] Guy D     Stop talking about ****, MC! [15:39] N     I apologize. [15:40] N     We've lost quite a few teams, but we'll carry on as planned. [15:45] N     The people who already left would never have survived till the end. [15:49] N     Understood, everybody? [15:51] N     I'll explain the prelims so listen carefully. [15:55] N     We have approximately one thousand teams of four people here, [16:01] N     but only four teams will make it to the final selection! [16:07] Guy D     Only four teams out of a thousand?! [16:10] Guy E     A fierce battle right off the bat?! [16:13] N     Only those who truly love Otsu-chan can win the honor of being Otsu-chan's Official Fan Club! [16:19] N     However, there is no way to measure love! [16:22] N     In that case, you'll have to show me your love! [16:25] Kagura     You call yourself a hyooooo-man? [16:25] N     Use your knowledge, stamina, and everything else you have to reach your beloved Otsu-chan! [16:28] Kagura     What planet is your maaaa-ma fr- [16:34] N     The prelims will be a test of... [16:36] N     Stamina! [16:37] N     Otsu-chan will now take a helicopter to OEDO TV. [16:41] N     It's over there. [16:44] N     We have a ten kilometer course from the riverbed to OEDO TV. [16:48] N     You'll have to run it. [16:52] N     The first four people to reach Otsu-chan... [16:56] N     The teams those people belong to will earn the right to proceed to the final contest! [17:01] N     In other words, it doesn't matter if you have a slow ass on your team. [17:05] N     As long as one member ranks in the top four, your team proceeds! [17:08] N     But don't forget this: [17:10] N     If anybody on the team gives up, that team is immediately disqualified! [17:17] Otsu     Everybody! [17:19] Otsu     Come quick! [17:20] Otsu     I'll be waiting! [17:22] Otsu     Then, is everybody ready?! [17:25] Guy D     Huh? We're already starting? Already starting? [17:27] Otsu     Ready... [17:29] Otsu     Set! [17:32] Otsu     Go fish! [17:47] Gintoki     Why do otaku have such a hard time understanding how to use their bodies? [17:52] Gintoki     If they sprint at the very beginning, they're not going to last ten kilometers. [17:56] Gintoki     You'll always find people who race off at the beginning and drop off later on like Yamcha. SIGN    [Note: Yamcha is a character from Dragon Ball.] [18:02] Takachin     Shin-chan, let's run together. [18:04] Takachin     Let's cross the line together. [18:06] Gintoki     Kagura, you take care of the rest. [18:08] Gintoki     I'm gonna take it easy. [18:09] Kagura     Woo-hoo! [18:10] Kagura     The money's mine! [18:12] Gintoki     Fifty-fifty, fool. [18:13] Kagura     Yahoo! [18:19] Gintoki     Buddy, this is so easy that I can feel mushrooms growing out of my belly button. [18:23] Shinpachi     Stop, you're killing me. [18:25] Gintoki     So easy that... SIGN    [Note: Parody of TV series from the 90s, "Ai to iu nano motoni" (In the name of love).] [18:26] Gintoki     the Hideo Nakao in my belly button was tricked by a Filipino woman and almost killed himself. [18:30] Shinpachi     Stop, you're killing me. [18:32] Shinpachi     And that joke is ancient. [18:34] Gintoki     How can we possibly lose to a bunch of flabby otaku with their bellies hanging out? [18:38] Gintoki     There wasn't any need for me to participate. [18:41] Shinpachi     That may apply to the otaku... [18:44] Gintoki     What is it? [18:45] Gintoki     Are you worried about something? [18:46] Shinpachi     Well, I can't find Hijikata-san. [18:50] Gintokki     What? You're still worried about him? [18:52] Shinpachi     Why isn't he around? [18:54] Shinpachi     Well, I suppose it'd be hard to spot him in this huge crowd. [18:58] Gintoki     There's no need to worry. [19:00] Gintoki     It's possible that after all that big talk, he failed to finish the paperwork. [19:05] Gintoki     Whatever. [19:06] Gintoki     Anyway, I'm tired, so I'll take a sedan to the TV station. [19:10] Gintoki     I'll be rolling around in prize money, so I might as well start splurging now. [19:14] Gintoki     Hey, sedan! [19:16] Shinpachi     Hey! [19:17] Shinpachi     How lazy are you?! [19:20] Shinpachi     You can't! [19:27] Shinpachi     Didn't they say that any team that has a member who gives up would be disqualified?! [19:31] Shinpachi     Refusing to run is the same as giving up! [19:35] Gintoki     It'll be fine. SIGN    [Note: Parody of "24 Hour TV Love Saves the Earth". A popular section of this show has charity marathons run by celebrities.] [19:36] Gintoki     I heard that ***** ********* was riding in a car when the cameras weren't on her on the 24-hour TV show.

[20:01] Gintoki     You want me to smash your best facial feature, those protruding teeth? [20:04] Takachin     Like hell they're my best feature! [20:06] Takachin     I obviously harbor a complex about that! [20:08] Gintoki     Bite your tongue. [20:09] Gintoki     People use their complexes as a way to mature. [20:12] Gintoki     You try to become better when you feel inferior. [20:16] Gintoki     So you could consider it a good feature in a way. [20:18] Gintoki     I'm gonna snap that great feature of yours. [20:20] Takachin     Do it! [20:21] Takachin     Snap them and make me handsome! [20:23] Shinpachi     Stop it, Takachin! [20:25] Shinpachi     Snapping them won't make you handsome! [20:27] Shinpachi     That's not the issue here! [20:29] Takachin     Damn it...
