SIGN    Gintama SIGN    Slip Arc SIGN    An Idol's Badge of Honor SIGN    Oedo Dome [01:43] Tsuk     To hell with that. Even a normal     meet-and-greet doesn't sit right with me. SIGN    BDZ48's Request!! Watch this program in a bright room     and at a safe distance from your TV ♥ [01:47] Tsuk     If you're holding a toilet meet-and-greet,     they might as well all work at Yoshiwara. [01:51] Shin     Is that really the issue here, Tsukuyo-san? [01:52] Sac     No need to tell me. I've always     been the producer's cum dumpster. [01:55] Shin     You keep your mouth shut! [01:56] Kyu     Idol or not, as a samurai, I could     never grab something so filthy. [02:00] Kyu     The only things a samurai should grab     are swords, dirt on powerful people, [02:03] Kyu     control of the Yagyu Family and     the right to its inheritance, [02:06] Kyu     stocks, and rice balls. [02:07] Shin     Don't make rice balls with a hand that     touched all that filth, you celeb samurai! [02:10] Tae     Besides, shaking hands from a     toilet would be rude to the fans. [02:14] Tae     We want to treat our fans better. [02:17] Tae     On that note, [02:19] Tae     let's have the fans enter the toilet instead. [02:21] Shin     Treat your fans better! [02:23] Tae     Also, keeping hygiene in mind, [02:25] Tae     they can hold Clift's fate in their hands. SIGN    A Mad Hand Appeared [02:29] Shin     Don't treat fans like the Mad Hands in DQ! [02:31] Shin     And don't pull on Clift's leg! Quit pulling     our leg by being so useless, Clift! [02:33] Tae     And despite everything that happened, [02:36] Tae     let's flush it all away and     call it water under the bridge. [02:37] Shin     They won't get flushed! [02:38] Shin     Not even the large option will flush your     evil deeds and Clift's feelings away! [02:41] Tae     It's the same principle     as the Gintama movies. [02:44] Tae     The moment we get the fans     inside, we've already won. [02:46] Tae     After that, the money will flow in even     if the movie's a steady stream of shit. [02:50] Shin     Enough with the outrageous statements! [02:52] Shin     Don't put us in the same boat     as your rip-off cabaret club! [02:55] G     H-Hey, what happened in there? [02:57] G     Uh, I think... [02:58] G     I touched something soft     that starts with "cli." [03:02] G     "Cli"? Something soft?! [03:03] G     And then water came bursting out... [03:06] G     Holy water came bursting out?! [03:08] G     I-I'm lining up for Otae-chan! [03:11] G     She seems prim and proper, but is     actually really bold! She's the best! [03:14] Shin     By some miracle, it caused a     misunderstanding and formed a line! [03:17] Tae     There, there. [03:18] Tae     Don't rush, guys. Enter     the toilet in turn, okay? [03:21] Kag     Well, since a line's formed,     let's just go with it. [03:24] Sac     Pfft! Don't make me laugh! [03:26] Sac     What part of that woman is soft? [03:30] Sac     As you can see, she's a legendary Bigfoot     whose entire body is the Rockies! [03:36] Tae     Sacchan... [03:37] Tae     Could you not get all jealous because     nobody's coming to your toilet? [03:41] Tae     Be a good little monkey and ride     on someone else's back, would you? [03:44] Sac     Otae... [03:46] Sac     A monkey on the back is an idiom that means     having a problem, not a literal monkey. [03:51] Sac     Has your brain turned into a rock, too? [03:53] Kag     Hey! Boss lady, Sacchan! [03:55] Tae     And I'm saying you can ride     these filthy men bareback. [03:59] Sac     Did you hear that, guys?     This is what Otae's really like! [04:02] Shin     Who the hell are you two fighting?! [04:04] Sac     What are you saying? [04:05] Sac     Before being a battle to decide the top idol, [04:08] Sac     this is a vote-off between     Diamond Vacuum members! [04:10] Shin     Who the hell cares about that?! [04:11] Sac     I won't let anyone else be center. [04:13] Sac     You guys are better off lining up     for me instead of this Jezebel. [04:17] Sac     Hey, don't you want to meet-and-greet me? [04:20] Sac     I've got two much softer     things than she does. [04:22] Sac     Look right here. [04:26] G     On second thought, I'm going for Sacchan! [04:27] G     She may wear glasses, but she's got     a bombshell body! She's the best! [04:31] Tae     Why, you little bitch! [04:35] Sac     I'm gonna be the center! [04:36] Sac     You can spew all the holy water     you want in the wagon, Clift! [04:42] Sac     No... You need to hold me more gently. [04:44] Shin     Hey! What the hell are you guys doing?! [04:46] Sac     If you shake that hard,     you'll crush my two [04:50] Sac     soft balls! [04:53] Tae     They're just Brey's golden orbs! [04:55] Shin     What the hell are you doing?! [04:57] Shin     This has turned into a meet-and-greet     for DQ48's wagon members! [05:00] Shin     Where'd you even find them?! [05:02] Tae     Clift and Brey needed to get rid of     their worries before the final battle! [05:06] Shin     You two are Booger Diamonds     48's Clift and Brey! [05:11] Gin     Exactly. [05:12] Gin     Good job, Clift, Brey. [05:16] Gin     Consider DQ48's Alena and McRyan. [05:18] Gin     Do you know why most people pick     Alena out of these two fighters? [05:23] Gin     That's because unlike McRyan, who is all     alone, Alena has Clift and Brey with her. [05:28] Shin     No way! [05:29] Gin     Yes way. They're just     like an idol group, too. [05:32] Gin     The center Alena's star shines brighter [05:35] Gin     amidst the darkness that is Clift and Brey. [05:38] Gin     Which means... [05:39] G     On second thought, Kyubei-chan's the best! [05:41] G     Unlike those two sluts, she's a pure tomboy! [05:44] G     Plus, she's got eyepatch and twin tails moe! [05:46] G     Orthodox really is best! [05:50] Gin     Go, Alena! [05:52] Gin     Walk over the corpses of Clift and Brey! [06:00] Gin     I forgot Alena could spam critical hits. [06:05] Kyu     Don't touch me! [06:07] Kag     Turns out Alena has the     biggest, Psaro-tier darkness. [06:10] Shin     You've gotta be kidding me!     What did she even come here for?! [06:14] Kyu     G-Give me some time. [06:16] Kyu     I'm slowly getting used to it. [06:17] Kyu     I think I'll be able to overcome it     once I throw another 1,500 of them. [06:20] Shin     The fans won't recover from that! [06:22] Tae     Then why don't you throw Clift 1,500 times? [06:25] Sac     And Brey, too. [06:26] Shin     Don't listen to those dark voices! [06:28] Shin     Spare Clift and Brey already! [06:30] Tsuk     Stop it, Kyubei. [06:32] Tsuk     Don't push yourself. [06:33] Kyu     Tsukuyo-dono? [06:34] Tsuk     If you can't hold hands with men,     then I can just hold your share as well. [06:40] Kyu     But I can't place such a burden on you. [06:43] Tsuk     Don't worry. I cast aside my femininity,     but ah'm still a woman of Yoshiwara. [06:48] Tsuk     Ah'm prepared to bear the sins of man. [06:51] Kyu     Ah'm moe! [06:53] Gin     Why are you freaking out over her?! [06:54] Shin     We still had our ultimate weapon, the     female hero who backs up Alena's party! [06:59] G     She looks like a cool, aloof beauty,     but she's kind enough to look out for others! [07:03] G     Tsukuyo-chan is the best! [07:05] Shin     This is our chance! [07:06] Tae     My, aren't we popular, Tsukuyo-san. [07:09] Shin     You two get back in the wagon right now! [07:11] Sac     After that popularity poll, you want to     win the Diamond Vacuum vote-off, too? SIGN    Popularity Poll Arc (Episodes 182 - 184) November 2009 [07:15] Sac     Of course a Yoshiwara woman would     know all about the casting couch. [07:18] Shin     You still haven't gotten over     what happened eight years ago?! [07:21] Sac     But the center always has     the spotlight on her. [07:26] Sac     So as fellow members, we really need     you to be more careful about things. SIGN    Female Hero Sends Clift to the Wagon!! SIGN    The Two Disappear Into the Wagon\Where Brey Awaits... [07:30] Shin     What kinda scandal is that?! [07:31] Shin     And why are you guys fabricating     stories to bring down your bandmate?! [07:35] Sac     How will you take responsibility for this? [07:37] Tae     Sending you to the Hakata wagon won't     be enough. You'll be sent to Indonesia! [07:41] Shin     Your shitty organization     doesn't exist in Indonesia! [07:45] Tsuk     I don't recall any of that, [07:46] Tsuk     but I guess it's okay if it'll     get me out of this stupid mess. [07:50] Shin     It had zero effect on her! [07:51] Sac     That laid-back attitude of     yours is really annoying! [07:54] Sac     Want me to cast Thwack on you?! [07:55] Sac     Be honest! You want to be center too, right? [07:57] Tsuk     Look, if you wanna play center     field or whatever base in baseball, [08:01] Tsuk     first get nine people to play with! [08:03] Sac     Don't play dumb with me! [08:04] Shin     Knock it off! Your ugly infighting     is weirding out the fans! [08:07] Tae     Oh, wait! [08:08] Sac     We were kidding! That was     just a comedy opening act! [08:11] Sac     Come back! [08:16] Com     Uh, excuse me. Can I just, like, [08:19] Com     take a dump? [08:26] Com     Whoa! It's totally sticking out!

[08:33] Com     Their behavior sticks out     so much in the idol sphere, [08:36] Com     both the fans and my poop     scattered all over the place!

[09:12] Shin     Not as long as the captain     of the Terakado Tsu Fanclub, [09:15] Shin     Shimura Shinpachi, is still here. [09:17] Shin     I'll stop them. [09:20] Shin     So Kagura-chan, Otsu-chan,     the rest is in your hands. [09:27] Bit     Captain of the Terakado Tsu     Fanclub, Shimura Shinpachi. [09:31] Bit     Do you really want a taste     of our meet-and-greet? [09:35] Bit     Did you forget what happened to     your friends when they tried us? [09:41] Shin     Otsu-chan... [09:43] Shin     As long as you keep singing, [09:45] Shin     your fans won't go anywhere. [09:48] Shin     Even back when you didn't have any fans, [09:50] Shin     you still had fun singing on the roadsise. [09:55] Shin     Someone who was given strength     by watching you is still here.

[11:37] Com     And what's going on here? [11:39] Com     Miss Bitchie is suddenly writhing in pain!

[15:15] Bit     Beneath the surface, idols     are filthy people, too. [15:18] Bit     They hide that filth with cosmetic     surgery and show off their fake beauty. [15:23] Bit     They hide that filth by putting on an     act and showing off their fake purity. [15:28] Bit     The dreams you people are having are     nothing but illusions wrapped in lies! [15:33] Bit     All we did was perfect those illusions     and make them more beautiful! [15:38] Bit     And we did it to show you the     dreams that you wanted to see! [15:42] Gin     You can't call those dreams. [15:47] Gin     It's just giving up. [15:49] Gin     Sure, idols dig their nostrils,     take dumps, and have , too. [15:55] Gin*     They cause scandals at times and     get down in the dumps at others. [15:59] Gin     But to make their pathetic selves     stand proud in the spotlight, [16:04] Gin     they discipline themselves, strive to     improve, and struggle to stand on stage. [16:09] Gin     You laugh that off as a mere illusion? [16:12] Gin     Well, you're wrong. [16:15] Gin     That's not an illusion. It's an ideal. [16:19] Gin     The dream to crawl toward one's ideal. [16:23] Gin     That's what idols are all about. [16:25] Gin     Just like samurai, [16:28] Gin     they're seekers of the ultimate dream. [16:32] Tsu     Sorry to keep you waiting, menthol. [16:36] Gin     And what those morons are having [16:39] Gin     is a real dream they're     pursuing with their idols.

[20:13] Bit     But that's why she shines brightly,     like a lone star in the dark. [20:19] Bit     She will walk over our dreams     and those of her friends [20:23] Bit     and continue down this path     of chaos we call idol stardom. [20:28] Bit     I don't know if you'll be able to     make up for what you've sacrificed. [20:32] Bit     You just let go of a talent     that could surpass Otsu. [20:37] Bit     She has the ruthlessness     to take down her enemies, [20:40] Bit     and the selflessness to cast     herself aside to help her friends. [20:44] Bit     A diamond covered in boogers,     with two totally contrasting faces. [20:47] Shin     Gin-san, Kagura-chan! [20:49] Shin     Wait a second. Aren't you gonna watch? [20:49] OMom     Yeah. I asked her if she     would like to keep at it, [20:53] Gin     Damn it, I couldn't make any money again. [20:54] OMom     but she refused, saying she was     already part of an idol group. [20:58] OMom     It's too bad, but she's fine that way.
