[00:00] Shinpachi
    To celebrate the Gintama anime becoming a movie
    & breaking roughly one million in DVD sales,
[00:06] Shinpachi
    we held the second character
    popularity poll.
[00:08] Shinpachi
    However, someone unsatisfied
    with the results
[00:12] Shinpachi
    attacked Yamazaki-san in 9th
    place to slide the ranking.
[00:15] Shinpachi
    This caused the girls, led by my sister,
    to go for the kill before being killed.
[00:21] Shinpachi
    Hideaki Sorachi, the original author at 15th
    place, was the first to be taken out.
SIGN    
[00:25] Shinpachi
    Then the anime staff attempted
    to cancel this week's episode
[00:29] Shinpachi
    using the author's absence
    as an excuse.
[00:32] Shinpachi
    But such scene does not exist
    in last week's episode...
[00:35] Shinpachi
    With the original author gone,
    what will happen to this show?
[00:40] Shinpachi
    And how are we suppose to pull off
    another 30 minute show this week?!
[00:50] Shinpachi
    The screen's back to normal somehow.
[00:53] Shinpachi
    That gorilla author must have
    recovered after a week.
[00:57] Shinpachi
    That's a relief.
[00:58] Shinpachi
    At the very least, this show won't be
    canceled because the author died.
[01:02] Shinpachi
    In any case, I must get
    to Gin-san quickly...
[01:06] Shinpachi
    I can't let this popularity poll...
[01:08] Shinpachi
    No...
[01:12] Shinpachi
    I cannot allow those wretched fiends to have their
    way with this distorted, yet beautiful world!

    Sorachi's been turned into a cyborg!
[02:14] Shinpachi
    Sorachi, you managed to survive,
[02:15] Shinpachi
    but your style turned into someone
    completely different!
[02:18] Shinpachi
    And the drawings are too detailed!
[02:19] Shinpachi
    We won't last to the end of our
    fourth season at this rate!
[02:22] Shinpachi
    I appreciate Mr. Gudonson for
    helping out with the story,
[02:24] Shinpachi
    but he obviously has no clue
    to what this show's about!
[02:26] Shinpachi
    Could you at least read
    some of the manga?!
[02:30] Shinpachi
    Huh?!
[02:31] Shinpachi
    The land of the samurai!!
[02:33] Shinpachi
    There was a time, long ago, when our
    country was called by that name!!
[02:37] Shinpachi
    Cut it out!
[02:38] Shinpachi
    That's not what I meant when
    I said read the damn manga!
[02:40] Shinpachi
    It's not about matching up the opening
    narration and the teaser!
[02:44] Shinpachi
    What?! Another change?!
[02:46] Shinpachi
    Are the artist and original author
    fighting over the theme?!
[02:49] Shinpachi
    Hey, stop that!
[02:50] Shinpachi
    Get along now!
[02:52] Shinpachi
    What are you thinking?!
[02:53] Shinpachi
    What is the editor doing?!
[02:54] Shinpachi
    The artist and author would always
    get into a fight if they meet!
[02:56] Shinpachi
    That's why the editor is suppose to act as
    the mediator so things can go smoothly!
[02:59] Shinpachi
    It's common sense, damn it!

    No...
[05:35] Shinpachi
    If my ranking hasn't gone up, Gin-san
    and everybody else are still safe.
[05:39] Shinpachi
    But who did this...?
[05:44] Shinpachi
    I see...
[05:45] Shinpachi
    It no longer matters who the perpetrators
    are or who they're after...
[05:52] Shinpachi
    Everyone below me is an enemy!

    Come on down, Shinpachi.

    To where we are.

    I-I'll pass...

    Hey, he's running for it!
[06:07] Man
    Catch him!
[06:08] Cath
    If we drag him down,
    we'll all go up a spot!
[06:12] Otose
    After him! After him!
[06:18] Shinpachi
    I didn't realize the situation was so dire!
[06:21] Shinpachi
    This town is filled with enemies!
[06:29] Man
    Over there!
[06:30] Man
    After him!
[06:32] Shinpachi
    It's no use!
[06:33] Shinpachi
    I can't get away!
[06:38] Cath
    H-He disappeared...
[06:40] Man
    Wh-Where did he go?

    Find him!
[06:42] Cath
    Search behind every blade of grass!
[06:51] Gintoki
    They're gone?
[06:53] Okita
    Yeah, it's safe now.
[06:56] Shinpachi
    Gin-san! Okita-san!
[06:58] Gintoki
    Don't talk so loudly!
[07:01] Okita
    Boss, you're louder.
[07:03] Shinpachi
    H-How...
[07:05] Shinpachi
    Why are the two of you together?
[07:06] Shinpachi
    What kind of combination is this?
[07:08] Gintoki
    Didn't you see them?
[07:10] Gintoki
    The whole town is like that.
[07:12] Gintoki
    There are only a few people
    you can trust in this situation.
[07:16] Gintoki
    I normally can't trust him,
    but he's 2nd, right after me.
[07:19] Okita
    It just happened to turn out this way.
[07:21] Okita
    I was running around when
    I bumped into him.
[07:24] Okita
    And I figured since the boss is in
    1st place, he wouldn't attack me.
[07:28] Okita
    Though I can't trust her just yet.
[07:31] Kagura
    What was that?!
[07:32] Kagura
    Aren't you cozying up to Gin-chan
    because you're after 1st place?!
[07:37] Shinpachi
    Kagura-chan!
[07:38] Okita
    Don't worry.
[07:40] Okita
    At the very least, I'm not interested
    in the dirty seat of 6th place.
[07:43] Kagura
    Hey, you better watch your back.
[07:45] Kagura
    I don't care about being 2nd, but
    I'm always after your head.
[07:49] Hijikata
    Cut it out, kids.
[07:51] Hijikata
    Honestly, what a sorry sight.
[07:53] Hijikata
    Letting a popularity poll manipulate you...
[07:56] Hijikata
    Why do I have to deal with this?
[07:59] Hijikata
    I wish I had never gotten 3rd place.
[08:01] Shinpachi
    Hijikata-san!
[08:04] Okita
    Then Hijikata-san can go outside.
[08:07] Gintoki
    You're fine with your rank
    going down, right?
[08:08] Gintoki
    You're fine with your underwear and
    rank being dragged down, right?
[08:11] Hijikata
    Open up, damn it!
[08:13] Gintoki
    If you want us to open the door, say
    that you're happy to be in 3rd.
[08:14] Hijikata
    Open up!
[08:16] Gintoki
    Even if you're a loser who lost to us.
[08:16] Hijikata
    Who are you calling a loser?!
[08:18] Gintoki
    But say that you're still happy.
[08:19] Hijikata
    Cut it out!
[08:19] Okita
    Say it, Hijikata.
[08:21] Okita
    You should be able to say it, Hijikata.
[08:23] Hijikata
    I'm gonna kill you, sadistic freaks!
[08:26] Hijikata
    Just kidding, I'm sorry.
[08:27] Hijikata
    I'm super happy about being 3rd!
[08:28] Hijikata
    It rules!
[08:29] Hijikata
    Open up!
[08:31] Kondo
    What a hopeless bunch.
[08:34] Kondo
    Despite all that talk, they
    care about their ranking.
[08:37] Madao
    What's so great about being 1st or 2nd?
[08:39] Madao
    This old man can't understand.
[08:41] Kondo
    Yeah, no kidding.
[08:43] Kondo
    Once you're our age, that
    stuff no longer matters.
[08:47] Kondo
    I'd be completely fine with a low ranking.
[08:48] Kondo
    And there wouldn't be much difference
    if I was 1st or 2nd.
[08:51] Madao
    Yeah, it's just a cheap ranking
    based off of looks.
[08:55] Madao
    Quite frankly, they can do
    whatever they want.
[08:59] Madao
    That's not what we're focused on.
[09:02] Madao
    I mean, can you be happy about a high
    ranking for such superficial reasons?
[09:04] Madao
    I don't get it.
[09:07] Kondo
    I could rank higher if I really wanted to.
[09:10] Kondo
    But I'm purposely not doing that.
[09:12] Kondo
    After all, I could dress myself
    up to rank higher,
[09:15] Kondo
    but that wouldn't feel right, yeah?
[09:17] Kondo
    You want to be cool on the inside.
[09:21] Madao
    They can play that game if they want.
[09:24] Madao
    We're going all-natural.
[09:27] Madao
    Honestly...
[09:28] Madao
    It's a little annoying when
    they arbitrarily rank us.
[09:31] Madao
    I'm all, don't lump me
    with the rest of them!
[09:33] Madao
    I'm all, don't vote for me!
[09:36] Madao
    I'm probably happier with a lower rank.
[09:38] Kondo
    Man, I know what you mean.
[09:40] Kondo
    Seriously, only a few can understand.
[09:43] Kondo
    I mean, just look.
[09:45] Kondo
    I don't understand how he's 4th.
[09:48] Kondo
    This guy hasn't done anything!
[09:49] Kondo
    He's in 4th by wrapping a
    bandage around his head!
[09:52] Kondo
    There probably isn't any
    real reason for it.
[09:55] Kondo
    It's a fashion statement.
[09:57] Madao
    Yeah, you've got that right.
[10:00] Madao
    Mine is just a pink eye, by the way.
[10:02] Madao
    And Kagura's big brother at 7th.
[10:05] Madao
    I don't understand this one either.
[10:07] Madao
    He came out of nowhere and he's 7th?
[10:09] Madao
    Isn't he a bad guy?
[10:10] Madao
    He's just wearing a Chinese outfit.
[10:12] Kondo
    You're right!
[10:14] Kondo
    Absolutely right!
[10:15] Kondo
    In my case, the Shinsengumi's
    having Chinese Outfit Day.
[10:19] Kondo
    To be honest, it's a pain when these other
    characters kinda overlap with mine.
[10:23] Madao
    Overlap? Aren't they ripoffs?
[10:26] Madao
    They're total ripoffs of
    our characters, yeah?
[10:28] Madao
    We showed up first!
[10:31] Madao
    I don't care about the ranking, but
    we need to make this clear!
[10:35] Kondo
    That's right!
[10:36] Kondo
    I don't want the audience to
    think that we're the ripoffs!
[10:38] Zura
    Would you cut it out already?
[10:41] Zura
    Now is not the time to argue about who
    did the ripping off, or who was ripped off,
[10:47] Zura
    ...or how I've been cuffed up.
[10:49] Shinpachi
    Katsura-san!
[10:50] Zura
    It doesn't matter if we're the
    Anti-Foreigner Faction or Shinsengumi.
[10:53] Zura
    Now is the time to unite and
    deal with this situation!
[10:57] Zura
    Why can't you understand?!
[10:59] Zura
    Why won't you uncuff me?!
[11:01] Zura
    Cowards...
[11:03] Zura
    Are you so scared of a wounded beast?
[11:06] Zura
    It's true that if I wasn't wounded,
[11:09] Zura
    I wouldn't have been caught
    by dogs of the Bakufu.
[11:11] Shinpachi
    Katsura-san, then those
    injuries are from...?!
[11:14] Zura
    I can no longer judge who
    is friend and who is foe.
[11:20] Zura
    No place is safe in this world...
[11:24] Shinpachi
    Katsura-san, there's something
    wrong with that flashback.
[11:27] Shinpachi
    No place is safe?
[11:29] Shinpachi
    Isn't that a safari park?
[11:31] Shinpachi
    You got injured riding a
    bicycle through there?
[11:33] Zura
    The nightmare began when I decided that
    I wanted to see those paws close-up.
[11:36] Zura
    Curses...
[11:38] Shinpachi
    Curses, my ass!
[11:39] Shinpachi
    You're an idiot!
[11:40] Shinpachi
    You've done this before, haven't you?!
[11:42] Zura
    I don't care what happens!
[11:43] Zura
    You can all...
[11:44] Zura
    You can all die covered by paws!
[11:47] Shinpachi
    You can die by yourself.
[11:49] Shinpachi
    You can die by yourself
    from a separate case.
[11:50] Shinpachi
    Anyway, where's Elizabeth-san?
[11:52] Shinpachi
    Don't tell me you ditched
    Elizabeth-san and ran.
[12:02] Shinpachi
    Uh, sorry...
[12:04] Shinpachi
    I think I just saw something
    I wasn't supposed to.
[12:07] Shinpachi
    I just saw mascots in a bloody
    battle for supremacy.
[12:11] Gintoki
    So here we have eight people
    plus two pets from the top 20.
[12:14] Gintoki
    Well, I'm guessing that nobody in the
    room is going to do any backstabbing.
[12:17] Hijikata
    You'll pay for that once we get back.
[12:17] Shinpachi
    Um... I'm pretty worried about that.
[12:20] Shinpachi
    They're all people who don't know
    how to hold back their anger.
[12:22] Kagura
    That's it, Sadaharu!
[12:24] Gintoki
    Anyway, we'll be hiding out in this
    hotel until everything's over.
[12:28] Gintoki
    The manager here's an
    old friend of mine.
[12:30] Gintoki
    I've explained everything.
[12:32] Gintoki
    We won't need to worry.
[12:34] Gintoki
    We'll want to stay put until the
    excitement's died down.
[12:37] Hijikata
    Excitement?
[12:38] Hijikata
    When are they going to calm down?
[12:40] Hijikata
    Hell, are you even sure that
    they're going to calm down?
[12:43] Hijikata
    I have to wait around with a bunch
    of pests for god knows how long?
[12:49] Shinpachi
    Hijikata-san, a popularity poll
[12:52] Shinpachi
    can only work when lots
    of readers participate.
[12:56] Shinpachi
    Don't you find it wrong when people
    try to twist that for personal gain?
[13:01] Shinpachi
    We have a duty to protect our own rank.
[13:06] Shinpachi
    Aren't we obligated to protect the
    number that's been given to us?
[13:11] Gintoki
    Well, a secondary main character doesn't
    want to be any lower than 8th.
[13:15] Gintoki
    That'd be pathetic.
[13:17] Gintoki
    You don't want to drop any lower, yeah?
[13:18] Gintoki
    In fact, 8th is already pretty bad.
[13:20] Gintoki
    Really bad. A real shame.
[13:23] Gintoki
    I was wondering if I'd done
    something wrong.
[13:25] Shinpachi
    That's not what I mean!
[13:27] Shinpachi
    I was unhappy in the beginning.
[13:29] Shinpachi
    I thought that popularity
    polls shouldn't exist.
[13:32] Shinpachi
    But I promised Yamazaki-san!
[13:35] Yamazaki
    Th-The number one position
    for a boring character...
[13:39] Yamazaki
    You must... protect it at all... cost...
[13:45] Shinpachi
    The "pachi" in Shinpachi
SIGN    
[13:47] Shinpachi
    is the eight for 8th place.
[13:49] Shinpachi
    We all must hold on...
[13:51] Shinpachi
    To our own numbers...
[13:52] Shinpachi
    Our own roles...
[13:55] Shinpachi
    I'm sure we can do this
    if we work together!
[13:58] Shinpachi
    If we're together...!
[14:01] Hijikata
    Of course we can.
[14:03] Hijikata
    If you can't guard a castle with
    this lot, it's a lost cause.
[14:08] Hijikata
    But the strongest castle will fall without
    a fight if it's collapsing from the inside.
[14:16] Hijikata
    Don't turn on us.
[14:21] Gintoki
    Hah. Same to you.
[14:27] Shinpachi
    That's great, Gin-san.
[14:29] Shinpachi
    We have a chance now.
[14:30] Gintoki
    Yeah, well done, Shinpachi.
[14:33] Gintoki
    That was a nice little act.
[14:34] Shinpachi
    Huh?
[14:35] Okita
    Hijikata-san, you show occasional
    flashes of brilliance.
[14:38] Okita
    They were completely fooled.
[14:40] Kondo
    Fooled?
[14:41] Kondo
    What do you mean?
[14:43] Kondo
    Huh?
[14:44] Both
    Shouldn't that be obvious?
[14:47] Both
    We're going to kick them down
    so we can dominate the top!
SIGN    
[15:11] Shinpachi
    I don't believe this...
[15:13] Shinpachi
    I went to Gin-san and the other higher ranked members
    believing they wouldn't plan anything bad,
[15:19] Shinpachi
    but it wasn't any different
    from the outside.
[15:21] Shinpachi
    Even if you place 1st, you end up
    being driven by a different greed.
[15:28] Shinpachi
    Humans are such greedy creatures...
[15:33] Shinpachi
    If this place turns into a battlefield, the
    popularity poll will be a complete mess.
[15:38] Shinpachi
    I have to do something.
[15:42] Shinpachi
    In any case, I need to
    be wary of the outside.
[15:45] Shinpachi
    Gin-san and the others won't
    make a move immediately.
[15:48] Shinpachi
    We'll have a real mess on our
    hands if this place is attacked.
[15:50] Shinpachi
    I need to gauge the outside situation.
[15:55] Shinpachi
    That's...
[15:56] Shinpachi
    Tsukuyo-san in 9th place.
[15:58] Shinpachi
    Why is she walking around here?
[16:00] Shinpachi
    If she strolls around outside with that ranking,
    she'll be targeted by the lower ranked!
[16:03] Shinpachi
    Hasn't she noticed the trouble going on?
[16:05] Shinpachi
    Should I call Tsukuyo-san over here?
[16:07] Shinpachi
    No, I'm not sure that it'd be safer here.
[16:11] Shinpachi
    That's...!
[16:12] Shinpachi
    Sis!
[16:14] Otae
    Then starting from episode 182...
[16:16] Sa
    She shouldn't need any
    more screen time...
[16:18] Shinpachi
    That's right!
[16:19] Shinpachi
    They're after Tsukuyo-san!
[16:22] Shinpachi
    Tsukuyo-san's in danger!
[16:23] Shinpachi
    But if I call to her now,
[16:25] Shinpachi
    it'll also draw in those wild beasts!
[16:28] Shinpachi
    What do I do...?
[16:29] Shinpachi
    Do I leave her out to dry?
[16:31] Shinpachi
    What do I do?
[16:32] Shinpachi
    What should I do...?!
[16:34] Shinpachi
    Tsukuyo-san! Look out!
[16:40] Tsukuyo
    Ah, sorry about that.
[16:43] Shinpachi
    It's no use! It's too late!
[16:44] Shinpachi
    She didn't hear me!
[16:45] Sa
    Hold it right there!
[16:47] Sa
    Hey, big girl...
[16:49] Sa
    Wh-What do you think you're doing?
[16:53] Sa
    The Boss Lady's 15th has fallen off!
[16:57] Shinpachi
    Ah! It's a hit-and-run scam!
[17:00] Sa
    How are you gonna make up
    for this, you stupid idiot?!
[17:03] Shinpachi
    That's such a yakuza trick!
[17:05] Shinpachi
    They're being nothing but a yakuza!
[17:07] Sa
    Look, the Boss Lady's 15th
    has been scratched!
[17:10] Sa
    You won't be able to pay
    your way out of this one!
[17:13] Sa
    What ya gonna do?!
[17:14] Shinpachi
    How did it get scratched?!
[17:15] Shinpachi
    I mean, those things are detachable?!
[17:17] Tsukuyo
    Forgive me.
[17:19] Tsukuyo
    I wasn't paying attention.
[17:20] Tsukuyo
    I'll wash it and return it.
[17:22] Shinpachi
    I'm sorry, Tsukuyo-san!
[17:23] Shinpachi
    It was my fault!
[17:25] Kyu
    You won't be able to wash away the dirt
    that's been thrown onto our emblem.
[17:29] Kyu
    Could you come down
    to the office with us?
[17:31] Shinpachi
    Emblem?! That's a emblem?!
[17:34] Otae
    Sarutobi, Kyubei.
[17:35] Otae
    That's enough.
[17:38] Otae
    That young lady didn't do it on purpose.
[17:42] Otae
    It's despicable to bully
    an honest girl like that.
[17:45] Sa
    But, Boss Lady!
[17:47] Otae
    Forgive the disturbance
    my young girls caused.
[17:50] Tsukuyo
    I've done you wrong.
[17:52] Tsukuyo
    It seems that you've lost
    something important...
[17:54] Otae
    It doesn't matter.
[17:55] Otae
    Don't worry about it.
[17:57] Otae
    I was going to clean up from
    this business anyway.
[18:01] Kyu
    Boss Lady?!
[18:02] Otae
    A half-assed 15th sign won't
    get me anywhere.
[18:06] Otae
    Our methods are too old.
[18:09] Otae
    I already realized that.
[18:12] Otae
    But I kept thinking they might
    sell character goods,
[18:14] Otae
    or release character songs,
[18:16] Otae
    or let us form a unit like
    PRINCESS PRINCESS,
SIGN    [Note: PRINCESS PRINCESS, or Puri-Puri, was a Japanese girl band from the 80's.]
[18:20] Otae
    and kept hoping and hoping...
[18:21] Otae
    The next thing I know, we're already
    half way done with the fourth season.
[18:25] Otae
    But even Puri-Puri was unable
    to beat the new wave.
[18:30] Otae
    Puri-Puri's time is over...
[18:32] Otae
    This is a new age...
[18:35] Otae
    Yes...
[18:36] Otae
    The age of you, the Perfume.
SIGN    [Note: Perfume is a Japanese female technopop group.]
[18:39] Otae
    Thanks to you, I no longer
    have any regrets.
[18:41] Otae
    I finally disband the group.
[18:43] Otae
    Thank you for the guidance.
[18:47] Otae
    I leave the rest to you.
[18:49] Otae
    Electro-on for our sake.
[18:52] Tsukuyo
    Ah, wait up.
[18:55] Tsukuyo
    I found this lying around.
[18:58] Tsukuyo
    Does it belong to you?
[19:01] Shinpachi
    She snapped it off!
[19:02] Shinpachi
    Tsukuyo-san snapped
    her own ranking off!
[19:05] Kyu
    Uh, isn't that yours...?
[19:07] Tsukuyo
    No, it was just lying there.
[19:09] Shinpachi
    Hey, Tsukuyo-san!
[19:10] Sa
    Just lying there? You're bleeding.
[19:13] Sa
    Your tore it off, so there's
    blood everywhere.
[19:14] Tsukuyo
    I just fell over there.
[19:16] Tsukuyo
    Don't worry about it.
[19:17] Shinpachi
    It's okay, Tsukuyo-san!
[19:18] Shinpachi
    You don't need to be considerate
    to that lot!
[19:21] Otae
    Young lady, I appreciate the thought,
    but I can't accept that.
[19:26] Otae
    Puri-Puri still has its pride.
[19:28] Otae
    Pride as hard as a diamond.
[19:32] Otae
    Besides, it wouldn't matter
    if I became 9th by myself.
[19:35] Otae
    That won't be enough to feed our bunch.
[19:39] Sa
    Boss Lady... Isn't there a way?
[19:43] Sa
    A way for all of us to become 9th?
[19:45] Otae
    Don't be foolish.
[19:46] Otae
    It's okay.
[19:48] Otae
    Electro-on the diamonds for our sake.
[19:54] Tsukuyo
    Oh, wait up.
[19:56] Tsukuyo
    This broke into four pieces
    after I dropped it.
[20:00] Shinpachi
    She shattered it!
[20:01] Shinpachi
    Now she shattered her ranking
    into four pieces!
[20:04] Tsukuyo
    Perhaps we can all be 9th
    if we divide this among us?
[20:09] Otae
    I really doubt that.
[20:11] Otae
    It'd be a stretch...
[20:13] Shinpachi
    Wait! Hold it right there!
[20:14] Shinpachi
    That won't do! That can't work!
[20:17] Kyu
    Then how about this, Boss Lady?
[20:21] Kyu
    The four of us can join together as
    Diamond Perfume at 9th place.
[20:27] Shinpachi
    Who are you calling Perfume?!
[20:29] Shinpachi
    That's allowed?!
[20:30] Shinpachi
    You can do that?!
[20:33] Otae
    That's great. I love that.
[20:35] Otae
    A brilliant idea, Kyubei.
[20:36] Sa
    Hey, Boss Lady. We can electro-on too?
[20:39] Sa
    We can also do the really
    bad robot-dance?!
[20:42] Shinpachi
    I-I don't believe this...
[20:44] Shinpachi
    I didn't expect them to conquer their target
    without a single drop of blood shed...
[20:49] Shinpachi
    They climbed up to 9th by absorbing
    instead of destroying...
[20:55] Shinpachi
    They're nowhere as cute as Perfume...
[21:06] Shinpachi
    They're...
[21:10] Shinpachi
    They're...
[21:13] Shinpachi
    They're...!
[21:17] Shinpachi
    Vacuum!
[21:18] Shinpachi
    A terrible vampire unit which absorbs everything
    to become their own flesh, Vacuum!
[21:23] Otae
    That's right.
[21:24] Otae
    It wouldn't be right with
    only the four of us.
[21:26] Otae
    We should also invite Kagura-chan.
[21:28] Shinpachi
    6th!
[21:29] Shinpachi
    Now they intend to absorb 6th place!
[21:31] Shinpachi
    This won't do!
[21:32] Shinpachi
    I can't let them have their way!
[21:34] Shinpachi
    I have to tell everyone!
[21:44] Shinpachi
    They saw me!
[21:46] Shinpachi
    I've been noticed by Vacuum!
[21:51] Shinpachi
    This is bad!
[21:52] Shinpachi
    They're barging in!
[21:54] Shinpachi
    This place will be a battlefield soon!
[21:55] Shinpachi
    We need to tighten our defenses
    in preparation!
[21:57] Shinpachi
    Gin-san!
[21:58] Shinpachi
    We're under attack!
[21:59] Shinpachi
    This isn't the time to be fighting
    among ourselves!
[22:04] Okita
    Fighting among ourselves?
[22:07] Okita
    I see...
[22:09] Okita
    So you all...
[22:11] Okita
    were planning on turning on
    us from the beginning.
[22:14] Shinpachi
    O-Okita-san...!
[22:16] Shinpachi
    Y-You've got it wrong, Okita-san.
[22:18] Shinpachi
    That wasn't what I meant...
[22:20] Okita
    Don't play dumb.
[22:22] Okita
    Look over there.
[22:26] Shinpachi
    Ha-Hasegawa-san?!
SIGN    
SIGN    
[24:05] Shinpachi
    First Yamazaki-san, and
    now Hasegawa-san...
[24:08] Shinpachi
    And the Diamond Perfume
    is already on our doorstep!
[24:12] Shinpachi
    What is going to happen
    to this popularity poll?!
SIGN    
[24:15] Shinpachi
    If this is the result, then
    popularity polls can...
SIGN    
SIGN    [Who will be in 1st place when
    the ranking battle ends?!]
SIGN    [See you next time.]
