**[00:00] Gen**
Immediately after the accident,
**[00:02] Gen**
the Fully Automatic Egg-on-Rice
Maker malfunctioned,
**[00:05] Gen**
extracting your egos instead of the yolks,
**[00:09] Gen**
and instead of putting them on steamed rice,
**[00:12] Gen**
put them in each other's smashed bodies.
**[00:16] Gen**
It made, not egg-on-rice,
***SIGN*** Egg-on-Rice
***SIGN*** Ego-in-the-Wrong-Device
**[00:19] Gen**
but ego-in-the-wrong-device.
**[00:24] Hij**
That wasn't funny, you shitty geezer!
**[00:26] Gin**
Give them back! Give our bodies back!
**[00:29] Ta**
You two needn't worry.
**[00:31] Ta**
Now that it's been repaired,
**[00:32] Ta**
if we use this Fully Automatic
Egg-on-Rice Maker V4 once again,
**[00:36] Ta**
you'll go back to normal.
**[00:38] Gen**
Precisely!
**[00:40] Gen**
This time, for sure, it will
make the perfect egg-on-rice.
**[00:44] Gin**
Forget about egg-on-rice already!
**[00:47] Gen**
Basically, we just need to
extract your egos again
**[00:51] Gen**
and warp them, right?
**[00:52] Hij**
Hey! Is this gonna work?
Is this really gonna work?!
**[00:56] Tam**
Gengai-sama, we're all set.
**[00:59] Gen**
All right. Here we go.
**[01:01] Gen**
Brace yourselves!
***SIGN*** I'm a Failure as a Leader,
and He's Also a Failure as a Leader
***SIGN*** When using the Fully Automatic Egg-on-Rice Maker,
please do so in a bright room and watch from a safe distance.
**[02:55] Gen**
How's it look?
**[02:56] Ta**
Confirmed warp readings
from both transfer devices.
**[03:00] Gen**
So it worked, huh?
**[03:03] Ta**
Gintoki-sama, Hijikata-san, we did it.
**[03:06] Ta**
The egos extracted from you
came together to create this.
**[03:10] Ta**
It's neither cat food nor dog food.
**[03:14] Ta**
It's trash.
**[03:15] Bo**
Are you kidding me?!
**[03:18] Gin**
All you did was warp red
bean paste and mayonnaise!
**[03:20] Hij**
Who asked you to put our egos
on top of steamed rice?!
**[03:24] Ta**
You could say it's ego-on-rice.
***SIGN*** Ego-on-Rice
**[03:28] Gin**
That's not funny, damn it!
And nothing's changed!
**[03:31] Gen**
Huh? That's weird.
**[03:33] Gen**
Why don't we give it another shot?
**[03:36] Hij**
I'm counting on you guys.
**[03:38] Hij**
Don't extract what's in our stomachs. Extract *us*!
**[03:47] Ta**
Good. It worked this time.
**[03:50] Ta**
Freshly extracted from you two,
**[03:54] Ta**
it's g*nads-on-rice.
**[03:55] Hij**
What part of us are you even extracting from?!
**[03:57] Hij**
What have you done?!
**[03:59] Hij**
My manhood!
**[04:00] Gin**
Which ones are mine?
**[04:02] Gin**
This one? Is it this one?
**[04:04] Hij**
Wait, that's mine!
**[04:06] Gin**
Nah. You're me right now,
so yours are not mine!
**[04:10] Gin**
Huh? Now I'm confused.
**[04:13] Hij**
How are you going to fix this?
**[04:14] Hij**
It's become some kind of
super-complicated puzzle!
**[04:17] Gen**
Don't worry.
**[04:18] Gen**
One more try, and everything
will go back to normal.
**[04:21] Gin**
It'd better!
**[04:23] Gin**
Take them from the right place this time.
**[04:25] Gin**
And you'd better put them
back in the right place!
**[04:30] Ta**
It worked this time.
**[04:34] Ta**
It's genuine trash.
**[04:35] Hij**
Why would you put them in *that*?!
**[04:37] Gen**
What's the meaning of this?
**[04:39] Gen**
Why won't it work?
**[04:41] Ta**
Gengai-sama.
**[04:43] Ta**
Transfer device A is showing an error.
**[04:46] Ta**
There was a critical deficiency in the target.
**[04:48] Ta**
Apparently that's why the extraction failed.
**[04:51] Gen**
Ginnoji,
**[04:52] Gen**
it looks like you're missing something.
**[04:55] Hij**
What are you talking about?
**[04:56] Ta**
Please calm down.
**[04:58] Ta**
For now,
**[04:59] Ta**
hold this Buf*erin and give it another shot.
**[05:02] Hij**
Was it kindness?
**[05:03] Hij**
Was I missing half my kindness?
**[05:05] Gin**
Are you stupid?
**[05:06] Gin**
As if that'd be enough to fix it.
**[05:09] Gin**
Take another ten with you.
**[05:10] Hij**
Wouldn't it be faster to just
transfer the Buf*erin instead?
**[05:12] Gen**
If we don't figure it out,
the device won't function.
**[05:16] Gen**
Do you seriously not have any idea at all?
**[05:18] Gen**
Did anything happen to you
at the time of the accident?
**[05:22] Hij**
At the time of the accident?
**[05:35] Hij**
The cat's asshole!
**[05:38] Gin**
Hey, wait!
**[05:39] Gin**
What do you mean?
**[05:40] Hij**
Basically,
**[05:42] Hij**
the fragment of the fur ball that got
sucked into the cat's asshole back then
**[05:46] Hij**
was one half of my ego!
**[05:48] Hij**
Unless I get it back and return to my
whole self, we can't use that device!
**[05:55] Gin**
You've gotta be kidding me.
**[05:56] Gin**
That corpse must've been cleaned up long ago!
**[06:00] Hij**
No, that's not it.
**[06:04] Hij**
What if my soul made that
corpse come back to life?
**[06:12] Gin**
You look over there!
**[06:13] Gin**
I'll check this way!
**[06:15] Hij**
This has turned into a complete mess!
**[06:17] Kat**
Well, well.
**[06:19] Kat**
What a place for an unexpected
run-in with a celebrity.
**[06:23] Kat**
If it isn't the Shinsengumi's
demonic vice chief,
**[06:25] Kat**
Hijikata Toshiro-dono.
**[06:29] Gin**
*Zura!*
**[06:30] Gin**
* This really sucks! I ran into the last*
* person I wanted to meet in this form!*
**[06:35] Kat**
It's a bit careless to patrol all
by yourself, don't you think?
**[06:40] Kat**
I mean, this area is a Joi Rebel hangout.
**[06:42] Kat**
There must be lots of people here
who'd love to take your head.
**[06:46] Hij**
Huh? Sorry, but I don't have
time for you guys right now.
**[06:49] Hij**
Step aside. I'll let you go this time, Zu—
**[06:53] Hij**
Katsura.
**[06:55] Kat**
What have we here?
**[06:56] Kat**
Is the Shinsengumi vice chief
**[06:58] Kat**
really going to ignore the
presence of so many enemies?
**[07:02] Kat**
Please don't disappoint me.
**[07:05] Kat**
You're a policeman. Maintaining Edo's order
**[07:09] Kat**
is your duty, is it not?
**[07:11] Hij**
Wait, Zura—
**[07:19] Kat**
Sheesh. Which one of us is
actually defending Edo here?
**[07:24] Hij**
Zura?
**[07:26] Kat**
I'm not Zura!
**[07:28] Kat**
I'm the captain of Odd Jobs Squad Three,
***SIGN*** Captain of Odd Jobs Squad Three
Katsura Kotaro
**[07:31] Kat**
Katsura Kotaro!
**[07:34] Kat**
Joi Rebels, who disturb Edo's peace,
***SIGN*** Slay
**[07:38] Kat**
are evils that must be slain immediately.
***SIGN*** Evil
***SIGN*** Immediately
**[07:40] Kat**
I shall adhere to the Odd Jobs Code
and bring judgment down upon them!
**[07:45] Gin**
*Uh, you're a Joi Rebel yourself!*
**[07:48] Gin**
*Why are you in Odd Jobs now?*
**[07:50] Gin**
*Why are you using the Gatotsu, too?!*
**[07:52] Kat**
I'm not the man I used to be.
**[07:55] Kat**
When Gintoki turned over a new leaf and
gained the resolve to discipline himself,
**[07:59] Kat**
I decided to walk alongside him!
**[08:01] Gin**
* Uh, the guy next to you is the one you were*
* trading Gatotsus with until yesterday!*
**[08:07] Kat**
Hijikata-dono.
**[08:08] Kat**
You had Joi Rebels in front of you,
and yet you tried to flee.
**[08:11] Kat**
How can you call yourself a warrior?
**[08:12] Kat**
Prepare yourself!
**[08:14] Kat**
You may be a cop,
**[08:15] Kat**
but you're no exception to our
"slay evil immediately" law!
**[08:19] Mad**
Hold it, Third Squad Captain.
**[08:22] Mad**
This isn't the time to be messing with small fry.
**[08:26] Mad**
We received word from one of our informants.
**[08:28] Mad**
There's been an incident on Fourth.
**[08:30] Mad**
We are to head there immediately.
**[08:32] Mad**
* They've even got bums who*
* look like Zaraki now!*
**[08:35] Sac**
That intel is fake.
**[08:37] Sac**
They say a talking monster cat appeared.
**[08:40] Sac**
It's a malicious rumor that
preys on the human heart.
**[08:43] Sac**
I've mobilized the ninja squad already.
**[08:45] Sac**
I'm sure they've dealt with it by now.
**[08:47] Gin**
*Just how big an army has Odd Jobs become?!*
**[08:50] Kat**
A talking cat? Is it a vengeful ghost?
**[08:53] Kat**
I cannot ignore this.
**[08:54] Kat**
To adhere to the Odd Jobs Code,
I must bring judgment down upon it.
**[08:57] Kat**
Third Squad, assemble!
**[08:59] Kat**
We're moving out, you louts!
**[09:01] All**
Slay evil immediately!
**[09:07] Hij**
A talking cat?
**[09:08] Hij**
Wait just a damn second!
**[09:10] Hij**
Don't use the Gatotsu on that!
**[09:14] Gin**
This can't be real.
**[09:16] Gin**
How am I supposed to look for
one cat in a huge city like Edo?
**[09:20] Gin**
Damn it! If only I could use the
police's information network...
**[09:24] Kon**
You seem to be in quite a hurry.
**[09:27] Kon**
Running late for a date?
**[09:29] Kon**
Yer friendly neighborhood policemen
**[09:32] Kon**
would love to give you a
ride in our patrol cars
**[09:36] Kon**
to a rendezvous in hell!
**[09:39] Hij**
*Kondo-san!*
**[09:40] Hij**
*This sucks!*
**[09:42] Hij**
* Why'd I have to run into such*
* a troublesome bunch now?*
**[09:45] Gin**
Thanks, but I don't need your help.
**[09:48] Gin**
Don't you policemen have your own jobs to do?
**[09:51] Gin**
Get back to your duties.
**[09:53] Kon**
Oh, but we are doin' our jobs.
**[09:55] Kon**
We found a shady vagabond,
so we're questionin' him, is all.
**[09:58] Hij**
* You're one to talk, shady*
* sleeveless policeman!*
**[10:01] Gin**
I see your Shinsengumi Code
has gotten rather lax.
**[10:06] Gin**
Normally, you'd all have to commit
suicide for neglecting your duties.
**[10:11] G**
Hear that, Yamazaki?
**[10:12] G**
Shinsengumi Code, he says.
**[10:14] Ymz**
That's centuries old, bro.
**[10:17] Ymz**
It's ancient history!
**[10:20] Ymz**
We're now free policemen, and
nobody can hold us down anymore!
**[10:24] Ymz**
We swore to Toshi-san that we'd
live by nobody's rules but our own!
**[10:30] Hij**
*Uh, what rules?!*
**[10:31] Gin**
Those "rules" are just
whatever's convenient for you!
**[10:35] Gin**
Keep listening to that lazy vice chief,
**[10:37] Gin**
and you'll end up as good-for-nothings!
**[10:39] Kon**
Shut yer mouth!
**[10:40] Kon**
Toshi taught us that freedom is priceless!
**[10:44] Kon**
He liberated us from our stifling shackles
**[10:47] Kon**
and turned us sleeveless!
**[10:49] Hij**
*That's what you meant by stifling?!*
**[10:50] Hij**
*Only your shoulders have been liberated!*
**[10:53] Kon**
I ain't gonna whine about you
insulting our vice chief.
**[10:56] Kon**
But you insulted our buddy.
**[10:59] Kon**
Yer under arrest on charges
of buddy defamation!
**[11:03] Kon**
And sentenced to being
dragged around the city
**[11:05] Kon**
and then executed!
**[11:11] Oki**
Gori-san, this isn't the time
to be messing with small fry.
**[11:15] Oki**
What about that alien thing?
**[11:16] Kon**
You mean the tip we got
about a cat alien on Fourth?
**[11:20] Gin**
W-Wait!
**[11:21] Gin**
A cat alien?
**[11:27] Shin**
You fiends!
**[11:28] Shin**
What do you think you're
doing to our president?
**[11:32] Shin**
Cops or not, if you act like
barbarians and disturb public order,
**[11:35] Shin**
we of Odd Jobs shan't let that slide!
**[11:37] Gin**
Y-You guys...
**[11:39] Kon**
What's this?
**[11:40] Kon**
What are children doing here?
**[11:43] Kon**
If you wanna pretend to be
cops, take it elsewhere!
**[11:46] Shin**
You're the ones pretending to be cops.
**[11:48] Shin**
Because you cannot be relied upon,
**[11:49] Shin**
we've had to maintain Edo's
public order ourselves.
**[11:52] Kon**
Bullshit.
**[11:53] Kon**
Edo's the land of the free.
**[11:55] Kon**
You'd better not keep screwing around
on our turf, or we'll make you pay.
**[11:59] Shin**
If you stand in our way, I'll have
to adhere to the Odd Jobs Code
**[12:02] Shin**
and hit your filthy face
with a Gatotsu Kumon Stance.
**[12:07] Kon**
How about *you* leave all your
food and water behind and scram!
**[12:11] Shin**
So neither of us is willing to back down.
**[12:13] Kon**
Looks like it.
**[12:15] Kon**
Which means
**[12:17] Kon**
we'll just have to settle it with our swords!
**[12:23] Bo**
Hold it!
**[12:26] Gin**
All of you...
**[12:28] Hij**
...sheathe your swords.
**[12:29] Hij**
I order you as vice chief.
**[12:31] Gin**
I order you as president.
**[12:33] Gin**
Knock it off already.
**[12:35] Gin**
I did tell you to slay evil immediately,
**[12:36] Gin**
but are you guys incapable
of identifying your enemies?
**[12:40] Hij**
There's a limit to freedom, you know.
**[12:42] Hij**
This is hardly the time to
be fighting these guys, is it?
**[12:45] Hij**
Show a little discipline and use your
brains for once, you pieces of shit.
**[12:49] Hij**
They're looking for the cat, and so are we.
**[12:51] Hij**
We're both after the same thing.
**[12:53] Hij**
Right, Gin-san?
**[12:54] Gin**
In that case, we should put
our swords away and cooperate.
**[12:59] Gin**
Right, Hijikata-san?
**[13:00] Kon**
Come on, Toshi.
**[13:02] Kon**
What's wrong?
**[13:03] Kon**
This ain't like you.
**[13:05] Oki**
Things had just gotten interesting.
**[13:08] Oki**
Why'd you have to get so
damn serious all of a sudden?
**[13:10] Oki**
Do you want me coming for
your head again, Toshi-san?
**[13:13] Shin**
If I may, President,
**[13:16] Shin**
you're the one who advocated
slaying evil immediately.
**[13:18] Kag**
We were just following that.
**[13:21] Kag**
Are you going to break the Odd Jobs
Code that you created yourself?
**[13:25] Kon**
Nobody's gonna take our freedom from us!
**[13:29] Kon**
Not even you, Vice Chief!
**[13:33] Shin**
We swore loyalty not to the president,
**[13:35] Shin**
but to the Odd Jobs Code and our salaries!
**[13:39] Bo**
Go!
**[13:45] Bo**
They're not listening to their leaders at all!
**[13:49] Hij**
Shit!
**[13:53] Hij**
Take it easy, you guys.
**[13:55] Hij**
I'm not telling you to make friends with them.
**[13:57] Hij**
Just this once,
**[13:58] Hij**
just for now, forget about your positions
and work together to fulfill a common goal!
**[14:02] Kon**
What goal?
**[14:03] Hij**
The cat!
**[14:05] Kon**
What cat?
**[14:05] Hij**
The lost cat! We gotta look for it together!
**[14:11] Cat**
Talk about hard times.
**[14:13] Cat**
I can't even buy cat food with this.
**[14:17] Cat**
Man, I'm starving.
**[14:22] Bo**
Oh.
**[14:23] Kon**
Looks like this really is no time
to be fighting among ourselves.
**[14:27] Shin**
Yeah. Let's put it off for now.
**[14:31] Kon**
Men! Work together to kill that evil monster!
**[14:35] Shin**
We must protect Edo from that monstrosity!
**[14:37] Shin**
Now is the time to join forces!
**[14:41] Bo**
*That's not what we meant!*
**[14:44] Bo**
No! Don't eliminate it!
**[14:46] Gin**
What the hell is that, anyway?
**[14:48] Gin**
Why did your ego entering a cat's
body give birth to that monster?
**[14:53] Hij**
Wait, calm down!
**[14:55] Hij**
Despite how he looks,
he's actually a nice guy.
**[14:57] Hij**
He's the personification of
Buf*erin, full of kindness—
**[15:00] Cat**
Who are you?!
**[15:01] Cat**
Don't get in my way!
**[15:04] Gin**
What part of him is a "nice guy"?!
**[15:06] Gin**
You're screwed if you get beaten
by your own other half, you know!
**[15:09] Kon**
Don't falter!
**[15:11] Shin**
Cursed goblin!
**[15:12] Shin**
We must slay that evil immediately!
**[15:14] Cat**
Do you guys know me, by any chance?
**[15:17] Kag**
Eat this, you piece of shit!
**[15:19] Cat**
Tell me!
**[15:20] Cat**
Who in the world am I?!
**[15:23] Cat**
I don't remember anything!
**[15:26] Cat**
The only memories I have are of
battles with lots of bloodshed
**[15:29] Cat**
and battles with lots of balls!
**[15:31] Hij**
Dear God.
**[15:32] Hij**
He's not just my other half.
**[15:35] Hij**
He's a big lump of the negative parts of me.
**[15:37] Hij**
A sorry combat machine,
**[15:39] Hij**
made of nothing but memories of
blood-stained battles in war and pachinko.
**[15:43] Gin**
That's just a lowlife!
**[15:45] Gin**
Or, well, it's just you!
**[15:46] G**
Your orders, President!
**[15:47] Hij**
What are you guys doing?
**[15:49] Hij**
Figure something out yourselves!
**[15:50] G**
How, exactly?
**[15:55] Cat**
I smell new pachinko machines over there.
**[15:58] Shin**
Wait!
**[15:59] Kon**
Shoot! He ran away!
**[16:04] Shin**
Damn it!
**[16:05] Shin**
I can't believe we lost to him.
**[16:07] Shin**
Why?
**[16:08] Kon**
Toshi!
**[16:09] Kon**
We did everything as you said, so why?!
**[16:14] Hij**
Because we're not your leaders.
**[16:18] Gin**
Sorry
**[16:20] Gin**
for being such worthless leaders.
**[16:27] Gen**
Looks like they weren't the only
ones not acting like themselves.
**[16:31] Gen**
A free-spirited Shinsengumi,
**[16:33] Gen**
and a disciplined and orderly Odd Jobs.
**[16:35] Gen**
That's all very nice.
**[16:37] Gen**
But don't you guys have a style of your own?
**[16:41] Gen**
If the makeup of a leader
can change an organization,
**[16:44] Gen**
then the makeup of an organization
can also change its leader.
**[16:48] Gen**
They need your help.
**[16:50] Gen**
But as you are right now,
you won't be of any help at all.
**[16:54] Gen**
You still haven't realized?
**[16:56] Gen**
I guess that's understandable,
because it is an unbelievable story.
**[17:02] Gen**
Then let me teach you.
**[17:04] Gen**
Tama!
**[17:07] Gen**
Your leaders, and your true colors...
**[17:10] Gen**
Put your bodies on the line
**[17:13] Gen**
and go take it all back!
**[17:37] Hij**
Where'd that freak go?
**[17:39] Gin**
He definitely ran over here.
**[17:42] Hij**
You get it, don't you?
**[17:43] Gin**
Yeah.
**[17:44] Gin**
These are the seeds we sowed.
**[17:46] Gin**
We can't get anyone else mixed up in this.
**[17:49] Hij**
We're gonna settle things ourselves...
**[17:50] Gin**
...staking all of our pride as leaders on it.
**[17:56] Hij**
There he is!
**[17:57] Gin**
It's him.
**[17:59] Hij**
Oh, no! He went into a civilian home!
**[18:01] Gin**
This is bad. If that combat
machine encounters a civilian...
**[18:05] Gin**
We must stop him before things get any worse!
**[18:09] Hij**
Huh?
**[18:10] Hij**
Wait, isn't this...
**[18:12] Gin**
Found him! He's over there!
**[18:14] Gin**
Watch out!
**[18:15] Gin**
Get away from him—
**[18:17] Tae**
Welcome back.
**[18:19] Tae**
You were out pretty late tonight.
**[18:23] Tae**
Where did you go to play today, Dozaemon-san?
**[18:28] Hij**
S-Some—
**[18:30] Tae**
Dinner's ready.
**[18:31] Hij**
Someone's keeping him as a pet!
**[18:33] Hij**
There was a monster that
domesticated that monster!
**[18:36] Gin**
Hey! What's going on here?
**[18:38] Gin**
Why is she with that monster?!
**[18:41] Hij**
Don't tell me she mistook it for an
abandoned cat and brought it home?!
**[18:43] Gin**
She sees that as a cat?
**[18:44] Gin**
She sees a creature that needs
mosaic censorship as a pet?!
**[18:48] Tae**
Dozaemon-san, I'm so relieved
to see you're healthy again.
**[18:52] Gin**
But his eyeball is popped out!
**[18:54] Tae**
I was so shocked when I first met you.
**[19:00] Tae**
You were lying on the street in a
pool of your own blood, not moving.
**[19:03] Cat**
*Oh, this isn't blood.*
**[19:06] Cat**
*It's just how my coat looks.*
**[19:07] Tae**
I never knew a cat could have fur like that.
**[19:10] Gin**
That's not what you should be shocked about!
**[19:13] Cat**
You saved my life by nursing me back then.
**[19:17] Cat**
I don't know how to express my gratitude.
**[19:18] Gin**
Wait, it can have normal conversations?!
**[19:20] Gin**
Hey, what does that woman
think she's keeping as a pet?
**[19:23] Tae**
No need to be shy.
**[19:26] Tae**
Shin-chan's been so busy with work
lately that he hasn't come home at all,
**[19:31] Tae**
and this place is too big for one
person, so I didn't know what to do.
**[19:35] Cat**
But I can't bother you any
more than I already have.
**[19:39] Cat**
I was thinking I should get going soon.
**[19:43] Tae**
You're leaving already?
**[19:45] Cat**
My wounds have mostly healed.
**[19:47] Cat**
Besides, uh...
**[19:50] Cat**
If people were to find out
that a young, unmarried lady
**[19:54] Cat**
brought a dirty stray home,
**[19:56] Cat**
who knows what they'd say?
**[19:58] Gin**
That's what you're worried about?!
**[19:59] Gin**
Why not show concern about
her bringing a monster home?!
**[20:02] Cat**
If I stayed with you, I'd end up
dragging your name through the mud.
**[20:07] Cat**
I'd rather rot away than
bite the hand that fed me.
**[20:11] Gin**
You already have! What's with this guy?
**[20:13] Gin**
Has he always been this chivalrous?!
**[20:15] Tae**
You don't have to care about that, you know.
**[20:18] Tae**
If there were rumors about, um,
**[20:21] Tae**
you and me, would it really
bother you that much?
**[20:24] Cat**
O-Of course not!
**[20:26] Tae**
Then stop worrying about silly things.
**[20:28] Cat**
Right...
**[20:30] Tae**
As the daughter of a samurai family,
throwing someone with amnesia out in the cold
**[20:33] Tae**
would bring me much more shame.
**[20:36] Tae**
Until you regain your memories...
**[20:38] Tae**
No, even if you don't,
**[20:41] Tae**
you can stay here and make new ones.
**[20:45] Tae**
You're already my pet, after all.
**[20:54] Cat**
Milady,
**[20:56] Cat**
I am forever grateful.
**[20:57] Gin**
What the hell?!
**[20:58] Gin**
Why'd those two turn into
Takakura Ken and Baisho Chieko?!
**[21:02] Hij**
I'm happy for you, my other half.
**[21:03] Gin**
What are you crying for?!
**[21:06] Gin**
What are you gonna do? How are
you gonna get your ego back?
**[21:09] Gin**
Baisho Chieko definitely won't let you!
**[21:11] Tae**
Here. I put all my skill into making
tonight's dinner, so eat up.
**[21:16] Cat**
Thanks for the food.
**[21:21] Tae**
Dozaemon-san?!
**[21:22] Cat**
Wh-Who am I?
**[21:25] Gin**
So that's how he lost his memories?!
**[21:27] Tae**
Pull yourself together, Dozaemon-san!
**[21:31] Tae**
Why did it end up like this?
**[21:32] Gin**
Because of that toxic waste
you cooked, that's why!
**[21:34] Gin**
At this rate, your other half is going
to stay a pet for the rest of his life!
**[21:38] Hij**
Go persuade that woman somehow.
**[21:42] Hij**
We don't have a choice! I'm you right now!
**[21:45] Hij**
She'll think something's up if
I go see her out of nowhere.
**[21:47] Hij**
It'd be much more natural for
you to approach her as Gin-san.
**[21:51] Hij**
You gotta act like Gin-san and
persuade her like Gin-san would!
**[21:54] Gin**
You've gotta be kidding me! Why would I—
**[21:57] Hij**
So you don't mind staying in
the body you're in, then?
**[22:04] Gin**
Y-Yo...
**[22:07] Gin**
Otae, pardon the intrusion.
***SIGN*** To Be Continued
***SIGN*** Preview
**[23:44] Hij**
Since you did it last week,
I'll handle the preview this time.
**[23:46] Hij**
Screw you! I'm going to nail it this—
***SIGN*** I'm Odd Jobs,
and He's Shinsengumi
**[23:48] Sin**
What? Already?! The preview's too short!
***SIGN*** Next episode previews can sometimes be really short, so take note.
***SIGN*** The Gintoki and Hijikata Ego Switch Arc comes to an end next week.
***SIGN*** Will Gintoki's ego manage to retrieve its other half?
***SIGN*** It looked like Shinpachi and the others got run over. Will they be all right?!
