[00:01] Shinpachi
Uh, Gin-san?
[00:03] Gintoki
What is it, Shinpachi?
[00:05] Shinpachi
Just to be clear, what was that countdown
you mentioned in the preview last week?
[00:11] Shinpachi
Was it just the usual...?
[00:13] Gintoki
Another fake ending scam?
[00:15] Gintoki
Of course not.
[00:16] Gintoki
We're actually having
a countdown today.
[00:18] Gintoki
I'm a grown-up. I'm not
going to lie every time.
[00:23] Gintoki
It's a matter of trust.
[00:25] Kagura
You think that people
still trust this show?
[00:28] Gintoki
Ouch, Kagura-chan!
[00:30] Gintoki
Where did you learn to be so hateful?!
[00:32] Shinpachi
You can't blame them, Gin-san.
[00:34] Shinpachi
We said we're entering the "final chapter"
around the same time last year.
[00:38] Shinpachi
That means we've been in the "final
chapter" for a whole year.
[00:41] Shinpachi
Plus there was the whole fake last episode
fiasco at the end of our third year.
[00:45] Gintoki
Oh, that.
[00:46] Gintoki
Well, they just wanted to try
out some last episode gag.
[00:49] Gintoki
It wasn't meant to trick the audience.
[00:52] Gintoki
We figured that everybody was used
to the show's style by now, but...
[00:57] Kagura
The phones at TV Tokyo were ringing non-stop
right from the start of that episode.
[01:02] Shinpachi
And because I made an ambiguous
statement about Sunrise,
[01:06] Shinpachi
"Sunrise" became the number
one searched term on the net.
[01:10] Shinpachi
The script actually had me saying
that Sunrise went bankrupt.
[01:14] Shinpachi
Naturally, we got called by the producers'
higher-ups at the time and got yelled at.
[01:17] Shinpachi
"Do you have any idea what it means
to be a publicly traded company?!"
[01:20] Kagura
Even the staff got a call from their families who
were watching the show and were asked,
[01:23] Kagura
"It looks like GinTama is ending.
Do you have another job lined up?"
[01:29] Kagura
Why would you want to trick your family?
[01:31] Gintoki
Yeah, yeah. I get it already. We're sorry.
[01:34] Gintoki
That's why we're actually having
a countdown today.
[01:36] Gintoki
No lies, I swear!
[01:38] Shinpachi
Are you sure?
[01:39] Kagura
Is the GinTama anime really
having a countdown?
[01:42] Gintoki
Really! Look at my eyes!
[01:45] Gintoki
Do I look like I'm lying?
[01:47] Shinpachi
Sorry, we've only got a background
shot, so I can't tell.
[01:50] Gintoki
So let's begin the GinTama
anime countdown!
[01:52] Gintoki
Coming up next!
[01:54] Shinpachi
Did he just dismiss me?!
SIGN ["Countdown Begins"]
[02:00] Gintoki
Wow! Good evening to everyone
watching Countdown GinTama!
[02:02] Shinpachi
Huh? What is this?
[02:04] Gintoki
Thank you for sending in your votes!
[02:05] Shinpachi
Wh-Why're we CGI?
[02:07] Gintoki
Now let's get right to it!
[02:09] Gintoki
Number one for the best GinTama
lines ranking is...
[02:12] Gintoki
Count...
[02:13] All
Down!
SIGN [Best GinTama Lines Ranking #1]
[02:20] Bansai
Gintoki Sakata... You are a ghost.
[02:24] Bansai
You once tried to protect this country
along with Shinsuke and the others.
[02:29] Bansai
You are obsessed and unable to let go.
[02:35] Bansai
You are a living ghost!
[02:38] Bansai
There is no longer anything
for you to protect!
[02:42] Bansai
Ghosts should go back
where they belong.
[02:53] Bansai
I'll play a requiem!
[03:02] Bansai
The strings...!
[03:07] Gintoki
Hey, tough guy!
[03:09] Gintoki
Take off those headphones, dammit!
[03:13] Bansai
When did he get ahold of my strings?
[03:15] Bansai
What're you waiting for? Fire!
[03:19] Gintoki
Clean out your ears and listen up!
[03:23] Gintoki
I've never once fought for the
sake of this cheap country.
[03:28] Gintoki
I couldn't care less...
[03:31] Gintoki
if this country or samurai
fell. I have always...
[03:36] Gintoki
Then, and now...
[03:38] Gintoki
What I protect...
[03:42] Gintoki
has never changed!
[03:48] Gintoki
Okay!
[03:49] Gintoki
So number one in the "Best GinTama Line
Ranking" was Gintoki Sakata with,
[03:54] Gintoki
"Then, and now, what I protect
has never changed!"
[03:57] Gintoki
Man, I'm awesome.
[03:59] Gintoki
The main characters in a
JUMP Anime always rule.
[04:02] Gintoki
Even machine gun bullets
were swerving around me.
[04:04] Shinpachi
Now hold it right there!
[04:05] Shinpachi
I mean, this...
[04:07] Shinpachi
This really is just a Count Down TV!!
SIGN [Note: Count Down TV. A late night Japanese music ranking show that is hosted by CG animated characters.]
[04:09] Gintoki
Yep! Gin-san never lies!
[04:11] Shinpachi
Fine, you didn't lie,
[04:13] Shinpachi
but you still tricked the audience!
[04:15] Kagura
We got caught up in the flow
and yelled "Down!" with you.
[04:19] Kagura
Is this the annual recap episode that we do
right before the start of the Fall season?
[04:25] Gintoki
Exactly.
[04:26] Gintoki
Man, we always manage to burn through the
budget for the first two quarters by this time.
[04:32] Gintoki
So we have to throw in a recap episode.
[04:33] Shinpachi
Will you stop with the graphic
production details?
[04:36] Gintoki
We had a teensy bit of budget left over,
so we were able to do this CG.
[04:40] Kagura
Well, that's only natural after all the
alternate route bonuses we used.
[04:45] Gintoki
That's right!
[04:46] Gintoki
The entire fourth year of the GinTama anime is like
a bonus that came with the previous three years.
[04:51] Shinpachi
Don't be so brutal!
[04:53] Gintoki
Well, back to the subject at hand.
[04:55] Gintoki
We'll continue with the best lines ranking!
[04:57] Kagura
And when was the poll
for this even done?
[05:01] Gintoki
It was a legitimate vote...
[05:03] Gintoki
In Shonen JUMP...
[05:04] Shinpachi
How long ago was that?!
[05:06] Gintoki
Count...
[05:07] All
Down!

[05:13] Kondo
You idiot!
[05:15] Kondo
Why do you always put all
the burden on yourself?
[05:18] Kondo
So you plan on being the bad
guy all by yourself too?
[05:23] Kondo
I know how you feel, Toshi...
[05:26] Kondo
...About Mitsuba-dono!
[05:40] Kuraba
What a pity.
[05:43] Kuraba
I'm sure Mitsuba will be sad, too.
[05:45] Kuraba
To lose one of her old friends.
[05:48] Kuraba
I really wanted to be on good
terms with you people.
[05:53] Kuraba
If I got the backing of the Shinsengumi,
[05:56] Kuraba
then I could run my business
without any restrictions.
[05:59] Kuraba
That's why I approached one of your relatives
and even set out to marry her,
[06:03] Kuraba
but who knew she was that sick?
[06:07] Toshi
So from the start, you just used
her to get us on your side?
[06:13] Kuraba
I loved her.
[06:15] Kuraba
As a merchant, I love things
that will make me a profit.
[06:18] Kuraba
But only as a tool.
[06:26] Sogo
I just want her to taste a bit of happiness
like other people before she dies.
[06:38] Toshi
I won't call you a bastard.
[06:40] Toshi
I'm no better.
[06:42] Toshi
I've done more than my
share of bad things.
[06:45] Toshi
And to top it off, I'm trying to kill
the husband of a dying woman.
[06:49] Toshi
Sad, isn't it?
[06:52] Kuraba
So you can say, we're like two of a kind.
[06:55] Kuraba
No wonder they call you
the demon Vice-Chief.
[06:58] Kuraba
I think you and I will get along well.
[07:01] Toshi
That's really...
[07:02] Toshi
...an exaggeration.
[07:10] Toshi
I just...
[07:12] Toshi
...want the girl I love to be happy.
[07:16] Shinpachi
Boy, Hijikata-san's great.
[07:19] Shinpachi
He knows how to be a man.
[07:20] Shinpachi
That was awesome.
[07:22] Shinpachi
Huh?
[07:23] Shinpachi
Gin-san? You seem to have
a problem with the ranking.
[07:25] Gintoki
Damn right I do!
[07:27] Gintoki
Sheesh, why is he in second?
[07:29] Gintoki
He might act all cool and all, but he's just
another comic relief character now!
[07:33] Kagura
That's right.
[07:34] Kagura
Between his mayo obsession
and Toshi,
[07:35] Kagura
any serious line from him ends
up sounding like a joke!
[07:39] Gintoki
Right!
[07:40] Shinpachi
Uh, you people have no right
to say that to Hijikata-san.
[07:43] Gintoki
Besides, his best lines would be like:
[07:47] Toshi
We've run out of mayonnaise!!
[07:50] Toshi
Live happily, mayo!
[07:53] Hijikata
I-It...
[07:54] Hijikata
It's stuck!
[07:57] Toshi
Finally, I've got enough mayonnaise!
[08:01] Shinpachi
You two really are evil.
[08:03] Shinpachi
That was a horrible selection!
[08:06] Gintoki
Well, I feel much better now, so here's
the best line ranking, count...
[08:10] All
Down!
SIGN [Best GinTama Lines Ranking #3]
[08:57] Zura
So this is the end of the line?
[08:59] Zura
Rather than be caught by the enemy,
[09:02] Zura
let us finish as warriors
and slash our bellies.
[09:09] Gintoki
Don't be stupid.
[09:13] Gintoki
Stand up.
[09:19] Gintoki
If you've got enough time to fantasize
about your beautiful death,
[09:23] Gintoki
why don't you live your life
beautifully to the end?
[09:27] Shinpachi
Huh?
[09:28] Shinpachi
Those lines sounded familiar,
[09:30] Shinpachi
but we've never seen
those images on TV?
[09:32] Kagura
Zura and Gin-chan seemed
really high quality too.
[09:36] Gintoki
No worries. No worries.
[09:37] Gintoki
And don't be concerned about footage from
last year's anime tour being mixed in.
[09:40] Shinpachi
Wait! Are we okay with this?!
[09:42] Shinpachi
Doesn't that involve a bunch of copyright
issues and other stuff we can't mention?!
[09:45] Gintoki
It's fine.
[09:46] Gintoki
The producers are in their suits and
explaining it to everybody right now.
[09:50] Shinpachi
It's not fine then!
[09:52] Gintoki
Then we'll continue the ranking
after the commercials!
[09:55] Kagura
This will keep dragging on.

is filled only with serious lines?!

I didn't make this ranking.

This was the united opinion of
everybody watching GinTama.

Right, Shinpachi?
[13:51] Shinpachi
No, Kagura-chan's exactly right.
[13:53] Shinpachi
I can't accept this.

are going to show up.

Hey, four-eyes!

Don't backstab me!

Shinpachi, I'll let you handle this.
[20:14] Shinpachi
What? Hey!

Hold on!
[20:19] Shinpachi
Uh, how am I supposed to end this?
