[03:46] Yamazaki     Are you also participating in this tournament? [03:50] Yamazaki     Well, what a coincidence. [03:55] Both     Ya-Yamazaki! [04:18] Kagura     Woo-hoo!! Outta the way! [04:22] Kagura     Scram! [04:24] Kagura     The Queen's passing through! [04:26] Kagura     Piece of cake! [04:28] Kagura     The prize money's mine!

[04:55] Yamazaki     The chief asked me to participate. [04:59] Yamazaki     Put me in quite the fix. [05:02] Yamazaki     He was going on about freeing the Vice-Chief or something, [05:07] Yamazaki     but how am I supposed to understand what's going on when you put me [05:10] Yamazaki     in this embarrassing uniform and tell me to run. [05:13] Yamazaki     Well, it's not that I don't like Otsu-chan or anything, [05:16] Yamazaki     but I'm not a big enough fan to want to participate in an event like this. [05:19] Gintoki     Hey. [05:22] Yamazaki     Besides, I have no idea how becoming Otsu-chan's official fan club [05:26] Yamazaki     is going to save the Vice-Chief, yeah? [05:29] Yamazaki     On top of that.. [05:30] Gintoki     Th-This is bad. [05:32] Gintoki     He's also one of them! [05:35] Gintoki     Okita, Yamazaki, and the gorilla! [05:37] Gintoki     That's his team... [05:39] Shinpachi     Th-This is bad, Gin-san! [05:41] Shinpachi     If the committee finds out about Takachin, we're finished! [05:46] Shinpachi     We have to cover this up! [05:48] Gintoki     That sounds rough. [05:49] Gintoki     Well, we happen to be in a hurry so... [05:52] Shinpachi     Good luck, Yamazaki-san! [05:58] Yamazaki     Ah, hold on, master! [06:03] Yamazaki     It's too late to start running now. [06:06] Yamazaki     We're dead last, you know. [06:08] Gintoki     Y-Yeah... [06:09] Yamazaki     You probably let someone else run up ahead so you could relax yourself, right? [06:17] Yamazaki     You don't need to put on airs. [06:21] Shinpachi     We have no choice! [06:23] Shinpachi     We don't have to worry about what place we're in since Kagura-chan's running up ahead, [06:26] Shinpachi     but that'll all be for nothing if they find out about Takachin's injury! [06:30] Shinpachi     We must make it to the finish line without anybody noticing! [06:33] N     Uh, at the moment, a young girl and a large man are in the lead. [06:37] N     Members from the Tsu Terakado Fan Club and the Tsusengumi. [06:42] N     Neither is giving up an inch! This is amazing! [06:45] N     We've got an intense head-to-head race here! [06:47] N     Regardless of which one pulls ahead, [06:49] N     both teams appear assured to make it out of the prelims... [06:53] N     Er? [06:54] N     Wait, that's wrong! [06:55] N     That's the wrong way! [06:57] N     What is this?! [06:58] N     The two lead runners are so intent on their contest that they've gone the wrong way! [07:04] N     Ah, that's wrong! [07:06] N     That's the wrong way! [07:09] N     They're racing off course at a tremendous speed! [07:11] N     Their rankings are starting to drop! [07:13] N     From heaven to hell! [07:14] N     This is bad! [07:15] N     The other members of their teams have to do something, [07:18] N     or neither team will make it out of the prelims! [07:21] Gintoki     What the hell is she doing?! [07:24] Shinpachi     What do you mean, the other members have to do something?! [07:26] Shinpachi     Isn't it a bit late to do anything?! [07:28] Shinpachi     Are we supposed to catch up while carrying Takachin! [07:30] Gintoki     This is the pits! [07:31] Gintoki     It was stupid of me to send her up ahead! [07:34] Yamazaki     Master, master. [07:36] Yamazaki     Behind you. Behind you. [07:37] Yamazaki     You've picked up all kinds of junk. [07:42] Yamazaki     Uh, is that guy okay? [07:45] Yamazaki     He hasn't moved at all. [07:48] Gintoki     Huh?! [07:49] Yamazaki     Did something happen? [07:50] Gintoki     N-Nothing at all! [07:52] Gintoki     He's absolutely fine! [07:53] Gintoki     He's just tired after running too fast at the beginning! [07:56] Yamazaki     Yeah, but... [07:59] Yamazaki     He's got a stray dog biting down really hard on him. [08:03] Yamazaki     Those are the eyes of a dog hungering for dead flesh. [08:05] Yamazaki     Is that okay? [08:06] Gintoki     Absolutely okay! [08:07] Gintoki     He's got a few dogs at his old home! [08:09] Gintoki     Maybe dogs just love him?! [08:11] Yamazaki     Yeah, but... [08:14] Yamazaki     There's a weird old guy with a scythe bearing down on you. [08:17] Yamazaki     Is that okay? [08:18] Gintoki     Absolutely okay! [08:19] Gintoki     Maybe it's his dad from back home?! [08:21] Gintoki     He must have come to cheer him on! [08:23] Yamazaki     Yeah, but... [08:24] Yamazaki     There's also an old lady with wings on her back bearing down on you. [08:26] Yamazaki     Is that okay? [08:27] Gintoki     It's his mom! [08:29] Gintoki     Both of them came! [08:30] Gintoki     What a wonderful family! [08:33] Yamazaki     Master! He's completely exposed now! [08:37] Yamazaki     Are you sure he's okay?! Hey! [08:39] Gintoki     Absolutely okay! [08:40] Gintoki     He may be completely exposed, but we've got a hat covering it so we're okay! SIGN    [Note: Gin is hinting that Takachin has phimosis, a physical condition that affects men. Look it up.] [08:43] Gintoki     A little sun visor's covering it! [08:46] Shinpachi     Gin-san! [08:47] Shinpachi     This is impossible! [08:48] Shinpachi     This is impossible to cover up! [08:49] Shinpachi     Takachin's body won't be able to bear all of this! [08:51] Shinpachi     And worst of all, he'll be charged with public indecency before we make it out of the prelims! [08:55] Gintoki     Damn it... [08:56] Gintoki     I have no choice! [08:58] Gintoki     Sacrifices must be made at times! [09:01] Gintoki     Shinpachi! [09:02] Gintoki     I'm counting on you to catch-up! [09:03] Shinpachi     Gin-san! [09:05] Shinpachi     Where are you going?! [09:06] Gintoki     I'll take Taka-chin to the hospital for now! [09:09] Shinpachi     Gin-san, it's no use! [09:11] Shinpachi     If you take him to a doctor in that condition, he'll be hospitalized in no time! [09:14] Shinpachi     We won't be able to avoid his disqualification! [09:16] Gintoki     I vow to bring him back once he's been looked at! [09:19] Gintoki     I promise! [09:21] Gintoki     So I'm counting on you in the meantime, Shinpachi! [09:25] Shinpachi     Gin-san! [09:26] Shinpachi     That's a clinic for urologic plastic surgery! [09:29] Shinpachi     What are you having him looked at for?! [09:33] Yamazaki     It's over, Shinpachi-kun. [09:35] Yamazaki     He won't be able to make it back in that state. [09:38] Yamazaki     Well, we'll work hard enough for your share. [09:41] Yamazaki     Just give up quietly and join the spectators. [09:49] Shinpachi     I won't give up! [09:51] Shinpachi     Gin-san promised, so they'll definitely return! [09:55] Shinpachi     All I can do is believe in them and move on! [10:00] Yamazaki     Aw, he's all fired up now. [10:03] Yamazaki     What a waste of effort. [10:05] Yamazaki     The Tsusengumi's victory is all but... [10:07] Gintoki     He's pretty quick. [10:09] Gintoki     We might have a chance at this rate. [10:11] Yamazaki     That was fast! [10:12] Gintoki     What? You got a problem with me coming back so fast? [10:14] Yamazaki     No, wasn't that a little too fast? [10:17] Yamazaki     Where's that injured guy? [10:18] Yamazaki     Did you just dump him off somewhere? [10:20] Gintoki     No, he said he'd race over as soon as he was done being treated. [10:24] Yamazaki     You're such a kidder. [10:25] Yamazaki     What's the point in buying a little time? [10:28] Yamazaki     He won't be coming back. [10:30] Gin     Ah, there he is. [10:32] Yamazaki     Huh? [10:33] Gintoki     Hey! [10:34] Gintoki     Over here! [10:39] Gintoki     Man, it's a good thing it wasn't anything serious. [10:45] Gintoki     Besides, you're too weak. [10:47] Gintoki     You need to work out more. [10:57] Gintoki     Yeah, Taka-tin? [10:59] Yamazaki     Who is that?! [11:12] Yamazaki     Who is that?! [11:15] Yamazaki     Who is this person?! [11:16] Yamazaki     Isn't this a completely different person?! [11:18] Yamazaki     Who is this brazen foreigner?! [11:20] Gintoki     Huh? What do you say? [11:23] Gintoki     It's Taka-tin. [11:24] Gintoki     It's obviously Taka-tin and nobody else. [11:28] Gintoki     That's true. [11:29] Yamazaki     No, it's obviously a completely different person! [11:32] Yamazaki     Look at this guy from any angle and any position and this guy's got nothing on him! [11:36] Gintoki     Yep, nothing on him. [11:38] Gintoki     Since Taka-tin was just released from surgery. [11:41] Yamazaki     What kind of surgery?! [11:42] Yamazaki     I'm talking about his character! [11:43] Yamazaki     It's not like you ordered the wrong guy here! [11:45] Yamazaki     And what do you mean, Taka-tin?! [11:46] Yamazaki     Why are you speaking in English?! [11:48] Gintoki     Hey, now. [11:50] Gintoki     Don't try to pick a fight here. [11:52] Gintoki     He's the real deal. 100% genuine. [11:54] Gintoki     Authentic stuff, yeah. [11:57] Yamazaki     Lose the crappy English accent! It's pissing me off! [12:00] Gintoki     Now, now. Think back. [12:03] Gintoki     Taka-tin had that French bread-looking pompadour. [12:08] Yamazaki     He's just carrying a loaf of French bread in his hand! [12:11] Yamazaki     You could at least put the bread on his head! [12:13] Yamazaki     Why is he just standing there?! [12:14] Yamazaki     Why is he standing there with French bread?! [12:16] Gintoki     Well, the treatment being what it was... [12:18] Gintoki     A man becomes an adult when he's had the hat down there removed. [12:21] Gintoki     He's dropped the sun visor to stand out where everyone can see. SIGN    [Note: Gintoki is taking about a circumcision and the surgical operation used to fix phimosis.] [12:25] Gintoki     So he's probably trying to act a little more mature. [12:29] Yamazaki     Like I said! What kind of treatment was it?! [12:31] Yamazaki     How could he possibly have turned into a huge adult who can't fit into a T-shirt?! [12:35] Gintoki     Well, he finally dropped the turtleneck he's had since he was born. SIGN    [Note: Turtleneck sweaters are often used in ads as a symbol of phimosis.] [12:40] Taka-Tin     Time is money. [12:42] Gintoki     Oh, we don't have time for this. [12:45] Gintoki     We need to be on our way. [12:46] Yamazaki     He just spoke in English. [12:47] Yamazaki     He's not even trying to pretend to be him! [12:49] Yamazaki     And he's eating the French bread! [12:51] Taka-Tin     One hour, ten thousand yen. [12:53] Taka-Tin     Two hours, twenty thousand yen. [12:55] Taka-Tin     During that time, I'm Taka-tin. [12:58] Taka-Tin     Okay? [12:59] Gintoki     Okay. Okay. [13:01] Gintoki     Three hours, three loaves of French bread. [13:03] Gintoki     Four hours, four loaves of French bread. [13:06] Gintoki     Okay? [13:07] Yamazaki     Why does his compensation become French bread after three hours?! [13:10] Yamazaki     It obviously isn't okay! [13:11] Yamazaki     He's only getting twenty thousand out of this! [13:13] Taka-Tin     Okay! French bread! [13:15] Yamazaki     You're okay with it?! [13:16] Yamazaki     Bread over money?! [13:17] Yamazaki     This is obviously fraud. [13:19] Yamazaki     He's nothing more than a substitute. [13:22] Yamazaki     Sorry, but I have to report this to the committee. [13:26] Yamazaki     Everybody's serious about this! [13:27] Yamazaki     I can't let this slide! [13:30] Yamazaki     Ow! [13:32] Yamazaki     The French bread is hard! [13:33] Yamazaki     The French bread hurts! [13:35] Gintoki     Everybody's serious about this? [13:36] Gintoki     Hey, don't give me that bullshit. Hey, now. [13:41] Gintoki     Want me to tell you how Takachin got injured in the first place? Huh? [13:53] N     The prelims are yielding a whirlwind of events. [13:56] N     Half of the participants are out after being caught up in the rampage of the front two. [14:01] N     And the front two are missing after going the wrong way. [14:05] N     At the moment, the last stragglers from the remaining half [14:09] N     have passed the five kilometer mark where they disappeared. [14:14] N     The Tsu Terakado Fan Club and the Tsusengumi [14:17] N     have clawed their way from the depths of hell in search of victory! [14:20] N     Quite frankly, they have no chance of bouncing back. [14:23] N     Very unfortunate. [14:26] N     Two of the top teams falling in the prelims... [14:32] N     Ah... [14:33] N     That's... [14:35] N     The person racing over the countless fallen bodies of otakus at a tremendous speed... [14:40] N     C-Could it be?! [14:42] N     That's... That's... [14:45] N     Here it is! [14:47] N     The Tsu Terakado Fan Club has clawed their way from the depths of hell in search of victory! [14:55] N     However, a large gap has opened between the leaders and the stragglers. [14:59] N     It will be very difficult to overcome their lead! [15:06] Shinpachi     I can't lose here! [15:08] Shinpachi     I can't let myself lose! [15:15] N     Whoa! He's speeding up! [15:18] N     He's already caught up to the frontrunners and is attempting to pass them! [15:28] Hijikata     Formation Genbu. [15:35] N     Oh? [15:36] N     What... What is this? [15:40] N     The frontrunners have abruptly created a formation to block the Tsu Terakado Fan Club's path! [15:45] N     A wall! It's like a wall! [15:47] N     A large wall of otaku prevents him from advancing! [15:52] N     What is going on here? [15:53] N     How could all these scattered teams move with such coordination?! [15:59] Shinpachi     It couldn't be... [16:02] Hijikata     What a naive bunch of people... [16:05] Hijikata     Between the committee running this contest and your little fan club... [16:10] Hijikata     Five thousand participants in this tournament. [16:12] Hijikata     In other words, over a thousand teams fighting for the title of Official Fan Club... [16:20] Hijikata     You still haven't noticed that this contest isn't all fun and games? [16:26] Hijikata     A thousand teams versus one. [16:28] Hijikata     Five thousand versus four. [16:32] Hijikata     The only people in this competition are yours and mine. [16:38] Hijikata     All of the otaku standing here after entering the tournament are my pawns, excluding your group. [16:47] Shinpachi     Th-That's impossible... [16:49] Shinpachi     All of them belong to the Tsusengumi?! [16:52] Shinpachi     They're all our enemies?! [16:55] Shinpachi     No way... [16:56] Shinpachi     It can't be! [16:57] Shinpachi     How could you have become such a large force...? [17:00] Hijikata     The battle was over before it even began. [17:03] Hijikata     Yes. [17:04] Hijikata     This isn't a contest for becoming the Official Fan Club. [17:11] Hijikata     It's merely a ritual. [17:13] Hijikata     A little celebration to cleanse Toshi. [17:17] Hijikata     And you people are the sacrifices. [17:22] Hijikata     Nobody likes sacrifices that don't know when to give up. [17:25] Hijikata     You shouldn't be roaring for a fight. You should be accepting your fate. [17:35] N     What's this?! [17:36] N     A member of the Tsusengumi was among the frontrunners! [17:40] N     We were unable to hear the conversation, [17:42] N     but it's believed that he's leading multiple teams in working together to block the Tsu Terakado Fan Club! [17:49] N     The waves of otaku are parting like the Ten Commandments! [17:52] N     The Tsusengumi has instantly jumped to the top! [17:56] N     On the other hand, the Tsu Terakado Fan Club... [18:07] N     Oh! The Tsu Terakado Fan Club has charged into the wall! [18:11] N     However, the wall of otaku is preventing him from making a move! [18:16] Shinpachi     Damn it! Damn it! [18:18] Shinpachi     I won't give up! [18:20] Shinpachi     I refuse to give up! [18:22] Shinpachi     I made a promise with Gin-san! [18:24] Shinpachi     I'm sure that Gin-san will keep this team alive! [18:28] Shinpachi     I must keep our hopes alive! [18:33] Shinpachi     I must find a path... [18:37] Shinpachi     I don't care how thin it may be. [18:39] Shinpachi     I will find the ray of light that leads to victory! [18:49] N     We now move to the bridge at the seven kilometer mark of the course. [18:52] N     Only three kilometers to the finish line. [18:55] N     The Tsu Terakado Fan Club remains stuck in dead last! [19:03] N     It will be difficult to change the situation! [19:05] N     Is this the end for their fan club?! [19:13] Shinpachi     Found it... [19:24] N     The rail of the bridge! [19:25] N     The Tsu Terakado Fan Club [19:26] N     has found a path to victory where none existed, on the thin rail of the bridge! [19:32] N     The other teams are unable to cope with this unexpected development! [19:35] N     Like Yoshitsune, He's gracefully tearing across the bridge! SIGN    [Note: Reference to Yoshitsune Minamoto from Heian era. Legend says he dueled legendary warrior monk Benkei on Gojo Bridge.] [19:39] N     The otaku are gathering onto the bridge to block the fan club's path! [19:43] N     Will he make it past this wall of bodies?! [19:45] N     Can he surpass his own limits?! [19:50] Shinpachi     A little more... Just a little more! [19:53] Shinpachi     This is our last chance! [19:55] Shinpachi     I'm definitely going to take it! [19:58] Shinpachi     Victory! Victory for all of us! [20:07] Gintoki     Well done, Patsuan. [20:09] Gintoki     That's enough. [20:10] Gintoki     We'll handle the rest. [20:13] Shinpachi     Gin-san! [20:14] Shinpachi     Takachi... [20:15] Gintoki     So we're counting on you, [20:17] Gintoki     Taka-tin. [20:18] Taka-Tin     French bread! [20:21] Shinpachi     Huh? [20:22] Shinpachi     Who is that? [20:26] N     The Tsu Terakado Fan Club has used one of their own as bait to destroy the other teams! SIGN    [To Be Continued] [20:39] All     A Little Ginpachi Sensei! [20:42] Ginpachi     Okay, we have some extra time, so I'll read a few letters. [20:46] Ginpachi     Uh, a question from pen name Odd Jobs Rule, Shinsengumi... [20:52] Ginpachi     is okay? [20:54] Ginpachi     Nice to meet you. [20:55] Ginpachi     I just noticed something. [20:58] Ginpachi     Shinpachi is a fan of Otsu. [21:00] Ginpachi     And Kagura likes enka. SIGN    [Note: Enka is Japanese traditional popular music.] [21:02] Ginpachi     So what kind of music does Gin-san like? [21:05] Ginpachi     I can't think of anything off the top of my head, so please let me know. [21:08] Ginpachi     Okay, I'll give you your answer. [21:12] Ginpachi     Gin-san doesn't listen to music. [21:14] Ginpachi     He hums a few commercial jingles every now and then. SIGN    [Note: Episode #133] [21:19] Ginpachi     So you remember back when I sang A Thousand Winds? [21:23] Ginpachi     After that episode aired, the voice actor's mother called to say, SIGN    [Note: The voice actor is Tomokazu Sugita.] [21:26] Ginpachi     "Tomokazu, do a better job of singing." [21:31] Ginpachi     Sorry, that's how this character is supposed to be. [21:36] Ginpachi     And on a different note, [21:37] Ginpachi     Okita probably listens to comic storytellings. SIGN    [Note: Japanese comic storytelling (Rakugo) is Japanese verbal entertainment.] [21:40] Ginpachi     You can imagine him listening to the stuff, right? [21:43] Ginpachi     Uh, here's another one. [21:45] Ginpachi     A question from pen name Kaishu Katsu should be in GinTama. [21:49] Ginpachi     Hello. [21:50] Ginpachi     Excuse me, I have a question to ask. [21:53] Ginpachi     While watching the ending credits, [21:57] Ginpachi     it says that Yuu Saito assisted in the production. [22:00] Ginpachi     He's the current editor for the manga, right? [22:04] Ginpachi     When Onishi was the editor, it said that Kohei Onishi assisted in the production. [22:10] Ginpachi     How exactly do they assist in the production of the GinTama anime? [22:14] Ginpachi     Please let me know. [22:17] Ginpachi     Okay, I'll give you your answer. [22:20] Ginpachi     They don't do anything at all. [22:23] Ginpachi     Every week, they hold so-called meetings with the anime staff where they drink using their company money. [22:29] Ginpachi     So Nakasaki, the new editor. [22:32] Ginpachi     Enjoy the company's money next week. [24:05] Shinpachi     Who are you?! [24:06] Shinpachi     Who the hell are you?! [24:07] Taka-Tin     The next episode... [24:08] Taka-Tin     "From a foreigner's perspective, you're the foreigner." [24:11] Taka-Tin     "From an alien's perspective, you're the alien."
