    and at a safe distance from your TV!!
[00:07] Uts
    While an "ending" is a conclusion,
    it is also a release.
[00:12] Uts
    Through an ending, we will be
    freed of all that shackles us.
[00:18] Uts
    Such as the endless cycle of foolish wars,
[00:21] Uts
    or the sorrow and suffering they cause.
[00:25] Uts
    And still, Sakata Gintoki,
    you stand your ground there?
[00:30] Uts
    You reject an ending and choose
    to continue suffering...
[00:34] Uts
    You choose the suffering of
    striking your teacher down?
[00:38] Uts
    Then I must make my own choice.
[00:42] Uts
    To choose the suffering of
    striking my disciple down.
[00:47] Nob
    That's...
[00:48] Nob
    The third and last of the Three
    Wings of Naraku, Hitsugi!
[01:04] Gin
    Teacher? Disciple?
[01:06] Gin
    That crap doesn't exist here.
[01:10] Gin
    The guy in front of me
    is nothing but a villain.
[01:15] Gin
    And the guy in front of you
[01:17] Gin
    is nothing but Odd Jobs!
[01:28] Gin
    You took his blood, too?
[01:50] Shin
    There's no end to them!
[02:13] Nob
    Time's up, huh?
[02:15] Nob
    I'll secure an escape route. Run away.
[02:18] Nob
    We can't fight both Utsuro and the
    Liberation Army at the same time.
[02:22] Nob
    I'm sorry. I didn't think things through.
[02:25] Nob
    That immortal man and his immortal army
[02:30] Nob
    can't be defeated by us alone right now.
[02:41] Uts
    It won't reach.
[03:03] Uts
    It can't reach.
[03:11] Uts
    Your sword...
[03:13] Uts
    can't reach me.
[03:16] Gin
    Utsuro!
[03:31] Gin
    Utsuro...
[03:34] Nob
    Hurry!
[04:13] Kag
    Your glasses broke.
[04:16] Shin
    I hope what I'm seeing right now is
    a mistake caused by my glasses, too.
[04:21] Shin
    But unfortunately, it looks like my glasses
    weren't the only thing that broke.
[04:32] Shin
    Gin-san!
[04:33] Kag
    Nobutas!
[04:37] Nob
    Hurry up and stop Utsuro
    and the Liberation Army.
[04:41] Nob
    Forget about me.
[04:44] Gin
    We both did stuff we normally wouldn't.
[04:47] Nob
    I just didn't want to watch
    our prospects get any worse.
[04:52] Gin
    Then keep this in mind:
[04:55] Gin
    In our eyes, you're a valuable
    part of our prospects, too,
[05:01] Gin
    Mimawarigumi Vice Chief Imai Nobume.
[05:04] Gin
    We need you to put in your
    chief's share of the work.
[05:08] Gin
    Don't you dare drop dead here.
[05:11] Gin
    He'll laugh in your face.
[05:15] Nob
    I'm sure he already is.
[05:19] Nob
    Isaburo, even in a world without you,
    it seems I still have a purpose.
[05:27] Nob
    But I don't know...
[05:29] Nob
    You entrusted your hopes to them,
[05:32] Nob
    but I don't know how to protect
    them from that huge evil.
[05:38] Nob
    I don't know how to protect Edo, which has
    lost both its elite and hooligan cops.
[05:45] G
    Target has been silenced
    by concentrated fire.
[05:48] G
    No signs of any enemies remaining.
[05:51] En
    What are you saying?
[05:53] En
    The enemy's still there.
[06:00] En
    Burn everything to the ground.
[06:04] G
    We're done for!
[06:05] G
    This is why I said we
    should surrender at once!
[06:09] G
    But to surrender while Nobunobu-sama
    was in the midst of negotiating with them?
[06:14] G
    We can't believe in a figurehead shogun!
[06:16] G
    I'm sure he has long abandoned
    this country and fled!
[06:20] G
    If we waste time here, we'll end
    up dying with the country, too!
[06:27] Soyo
    Go ahead and flee.
[06:30] Soyo
    No need to worry about the country.
[06:33] Soyo
    I'll watch over the castle
    while everybody's gone.
[06:36] G
    P-Princess Soyo.
[06:39] Momo
    Princess Soyo did what?
[06:42] Momo
    Why didn't you keep a closer eye on her?
    I repeatedly told you to take utmost care.
[06:46] G
    We're terribly sorry.
[06:48] G
    We couldn't really follow her into the
    bathroom, and she took that chance.
[06:52] Momo
    Find her at once.
[06:54] All
    Ma'am!
[06:57] (Flashback) Zen
    This country's done for.
[07:00] (Flashback) Zen
    You only have one job now.
[07:03] (Flashback) Zen
    Run away, Princess Soyo.
[07:06] (Flashback) Zen
    Edo'll be engulfed in the flames of war soon.
[07:09] (Flashback) Zen
    Arrange a ship that'll get
    you off of Earth immediately.
[07:13] (Flashback) Soyo
    Zenzo-san, I want to fight alongside you all.
[07:18] (Flashback) Soyo
    After all, I am his...
[07:20] (Flashback) Soyo
    Shogun Tokugawa Shigeshige's sister.
[07:24] (Flashback) Zen
    You're not the shogun's sister anymore.
[07:27] (Flashback) Mai
    Watch your mouth, Zenzo-dono!
[07:30] (Flashback) Zen
    You're just a sister, and it's your duty
    to live your brother's share of life.
[07:34] (Flashback) Zen
    And as the one who failed
    to protect your brother,
[07:38] (Flashback) Zen
    it's my duty to protect you to the end.
[07:41] (Flashback) Soyo
    What happened to Brother wasn't your fault.
[07:43] (Flashback) Zen
    Forget it.
[07:45] (Flashback) Zen
    If you're going to throw a tantrum, I'll
    drag you away even if I have to spank you.
SIGN    Dumplings
[07:49] (Flashback) Momo
    Oh? And then what?
[07:52] (Flashback) Momo
    Will you live in a land with no familiar
    faces, counting all the friends you've lost?
[07:58] (Flashback) Momo
    Zenzo, using your life to make up for
    failing your friend is all well and good.
[08:02] (Flashback) Momo
    But don't forget that you have other friends
    here who are doing their best to live.
[08:08] (Flashback) Zen
    Jump is the only friend I have.
[08:11] (Flashback) Momo
    And Bessatsu Margaret is my only friend.
SIGN    Bessatsu Margaret
[08:15] (Flashback) Momo
    But here's how I feel.
[08:16] (Flashback) Momo
    Living a lost friend's share of life
[08:20] (Flashback) Momo
    and fighting and dying with your
    friends who are still alive
[08:24] (Flashback) Momo
    are both fine displays of friendship.
[08:28] (Flashback) Soyo
    Zenzo-san, he's fighting, isn't he?
[08:32] (Flashback) Soyo
    Then I... We must fight, too.
[08:35] (Flashback) Soyo
    We must struggle and crawl out of
    the depths of sorrow and hatred.
[08:41] (Flashback) Soyo
    We can't be outdone!
[08:43] (Flashback) Soyo
    Not by him!
[08:46] (Flashback) Zen
    That so? Got it.
[08:50] (Flashback) Momo
    Where are you going?
[08:51] (Flashback) Zen
    If the princess is staying back,
    then I won't be of any use by her side.
[08:56] (Flashback) Zen
    Take care of her, Momochi.
[08:59] (Flashback) Soyo
    Zenzo-san!
[09:00] (Flashback) Zen
    I'm gonna do what I want,
    so you do as you please, too.
[09:04] (Flashback) Zen
    Not as a princess, but as his kid sister.
[09:14] Momo
    Princess...
[09:17] G
    What are you thinking?
[09:19] Soyo
    You all should evacuate at once.
[09:23] Soyo
    I'll take care of this castle myself.
[09:26] G
    Of all the preposterous ideas!
[09:27] Soyo
    We cannot leave this castle empty.
[09:30] Soyo
    When its people are fighting to defend the
    country, how can the country abandon them?
[09:34] G
    But what obligation do you
    have to go to such lengths?
[09:37] G
    This country took your brother's life!
[09:40] G
    And you are...
[09:41] Soyo
    Not a princess.
[09:43] Soyo
    I am Tokugawa Shigeshige's sister.
[09:46] Soyo
    And I will remain that forever.
[09:53] Shin
    Then Utsuro is...
[09:54] Gin
    Sorry. I let him get away.
[09:56] Gin
    Or maybe he was the one who let me get away.
[09:59] Shin
    But he must have been
    caught in that explosion.
[10:02] Gin
    If he was the type to die from that,
    we wouldn't be having such a hard time.
[10:05] Kag
    So in the end, we couldn't do anything?
[10:08] Kag
    We couldn't protect anything?
[10:11] Kag
    Is everything going just as Utsuro wants?
[10:13] Kag
    Can the war no longer be stopped?
[10:15] Gin
    Don't give up!
[10:17] Gin
    It's not too late! We can still stop it!
[10:43] En
    Fire.
[11:20] G
    I told you so.
[11:22] G
    If they go crazy up in the skies, we ground
    troops won't get any shots at glory.
[11:27] G
    We're fighting over four dirty apes?
[11:30] G
    What matters in a hunt isn't the game,
    but the hunters you're up against.
[11:36] Gin
    Run for it!
[12:05] Gin
    I run and run, but I don't feel
    like I'm getting anywhere.
[12:12] (Flashback) Uts
    Your sword...
[12:16] (Flashback) Sho
    ...can't reach me.
[12:18] Gin
    Have I not taken a single
    step forward since then?
[12:38] Gin
    I don't think I'll ever reach him.
[12:42] Kon
    It's not over yet!
[12:50] Kon
    Don't go ending things for yourselves.
[12:55] Kon
    Keep your eyes forward and
    your hands on your sword.
[13:01] Kon
    Fight, Odd Jobs.
[13:09] Kon
    Together with us Shinsengumi!
SIGN    Gintama
SIGN    Silver Soul
SIGN    The Line Between Tenacious and Annoying Is Paper-Thin
[14:51] G
    Wh-What's going on?
[14:53] G
    O-Our own tanks suddenly fired at us!
[14:56] Kon
    Your friends are all gone.
[15:01] Hij
    They'd parked their vehicles in a
    weird spot and were blocking traffic.
[15:06] Oki
    So we gave them tickets and
    impounded their vehicles.
[15:09] Oki
    We're currently investigating the case.
[15:11] Kon
    But you guys won't get off that lightly.
[15:14] Kon
    For traffic violations, destruction
    of property, et cetera,
SIGN    Special Bakufu Military Police Force
    Shinsengumi
[15:20] Kon
    you are under arrest!
[15:22] G
    Y-You guys are...
[15:25] All
    The police.
[15:34] Nob
    They're back?
[15:36] Nob
    Edo's hooligan cops are back in town?
[15:44] Kon
    Charge!
[15:54] Oki
    What're you standing around for?
[15:56] Kon
    You'll get left behind.
[15:58] Hij
    The battle's just getting started.
[16:01] Hij
    This country...
[16:06] Hij
    isn't finished just yet.
[16:10] G
    Fire!
[16:15] G
    What?
[16:21] Mat
    Good grief.
[16:23] Mat
    I gathered troops to fell Nobunobu's country,
[16:28] Mat
    but look what I'm doing now.
[16:29] Mat
    Get lost, rubberneckers.
[16:32] Mat
    You guys were fighting an empty country,
[16:36] Mat
    but its owners are back now.
[16:39] Mat
    Whether we defend this country or destroy it,
[16:43] Kon
    the decision is for us, its citizens, to make!
[16:47] Kon
    You have no horse in this race.
[16:49] Kon
    Men, show them how strong
    this country really is!
[17:09] Hij
    I thought you'd lost your
    will to fight out of fear,
[17:12] Hij
    but I'm glad to see you're still
    that same old unpredictable moron.
[17:15] Gin
    Look who's talking.
[17:16] Gin
    You took awfully long to drag out your
    grapefruits after they'd shrunk back inside.
[17:21] Kon
    When your enemy goes from one
    country to the entire universe,
[17:24] Kon
    no grapefruits are big enough.
[17:28] Shin
    Sorry! We tried to prevent this, but failed!
[17:31] Oki
    Jeez. Who was it that cockily
    said to leave Edo in her hands?
[17:37] Kag
    And whose stinking mouth was it that said
    he'd come back stronger than anyone?
[17:43] Oki
    If nothing else, I have grown
    strong enough to one-shot you.
[17:47] Hij
    We gathered up rebels
    from across the country,
[17:50] Hij
    used the old bakufu's connections,
    and gained support from other countries.
[17:53] Kon
    We have more political power than
    we could even imagine before.
[17:56] Kon
    We even bought cutting-edge
    weaponry and battleships.
[17:59] Gin
    That so?
[18:03] Gin
    And how long will all of that
    last against the entire universe?
[18:17] Kon
    Even if we can't win the war,
[18:19] Kon
    we might be able to create an
    opening with which to stop it.
[18:24] Kon
    Besides, it wasn't just our political
    power or weapons that grew stronger.
[18:27] Shin
    Kondo-san!
[18:29] Kon
    Do you really think we were twiddling
    our thumbs while we were away from Edo?
[18:35] Kon
    We swore to protect Edo for sure this time,
    and that we'd grow stronger to do it.
[18:42] Kon
    Sit back and watch the
    reborn Shinsengumi's strength.
[18:48] Shin
    No way, was that...
[18:49] Kon
    A restraint to keep my
    excessive strength in check,
[18:52] Kon
    and a special-alloy headband that constantly
    put strain on me to make me stronger.
[18:58] Kon
    Did you really think I'd change
    my costume for no reason?
[19:03] Kon
    The time has finally come
    to release this power.
[19:07] Kon
    Gori...
[19:09] Kon
    Ah, my head hasn't felt
    this light in a long time.
[19:12] Shin
    Of course it does! There's nothing in there!
[19:14] Shin
    You're taking the "release" thing too far!
[19:15] Shin
    Who the hell coordinates their
    entire getup with weights?!
[19:18] Kon
    Oops, nearly forgot to take this off, too.
[19:22] Shin
    Don't take off the mosaic!
[19:24] Kon
    What's this? I can't even feel my own weight.
[19:27] Kon
    It's like I've become one with the universe.
[19:31] Shin
    Kondo-san!
[19:33] Kon
    Hey. What are you looking at, tree trunk?
[19:37] Shin
    What are you showing off, your junk?!
[19:44] Kon
    I see it.
[19:46] Kon
    I see it.
[19:47] Kon
    I see it all!
[19:48] Kon
    The rounds are clearly visible,
    like they're a slow-ass turtle.
[19:51] Shin
    Uh, your turtle, rounds, and
    ass are clearly visible, too!
[19:55] Shin
    But wow. He's so fast.
[19:59] Shin
    Oh, the mosaic.
[20:05] Shin
    Why?!
[20:06] Shin
    What happened, Kondo-san?!
[20:08] Shin
    Don't tell me the real thing
    was behind that mosaic!
[20:10] Shin
    Did you step on your own dick?!
[20:16] Oki
    Oh, well.
[20:18] Hij
    Hey, take care of Kondo-san.
[20:22] Shin
    Hijikata-san! Okita-san!
[20:24] Hij
    We wanted to save this for a turning point...
[20:27] Oki
    But now, we have no choice but
    to release our powers as well.
[20:32] Shin
    Wait, are you two...
[20:35] Oki
    We attained this to protect Edo once again.
[20:39] Hij
    Behold our new powers!
[20:44] Shin
    Th-That's...
[20:48] Hij
    Nicotine Dispel!
[20:50] Hij
    Allow me to explain.
[20:52] Hij
    Nicotine Dispel, which involves quitting
    smoking to increase lung capacity
[20:55] Hij
    and make food taste better,
    is Hijikata's new power.
[20:58] Shin
    All you did was start
    taking care of yourself!
[21:02] Oki
    Mayonnaise Burst!
[21:06] Oki
    Allow me to explain.
[21:07] Oki
    Mayonnaise Burst, which involves wasting
    mayonnaise in front of Hijikata,
[21:11] Oki
    who lives only for mayonnaise,
    is Okita's new power.
[21:14] Shin
    That's nothing new!
[21:15] Shin
    In the past and now, all you've
    ever done is harass the guy!
[21:20] Hij
    This is the new Shinsengumi's strength!
[21:22] Oki
    Watch and be amazed!
[21:25] Shin
    Hey! They haven't changed one bit!
[21:30] Gin
    They've gotten worse, if anything.
[21:32] Ymz
    Well, duh, boss.
[21:35] Ymz
    People can't change that easily.
[21:38] Ymz
    In other words...
[21:46] Ymz
    Our desire to protect Edo hasn't
    changed one bit, either.
[21:51] Gin
    Uh, who are you? A new character?
[21:55] Ymz
    What're you talking about?
[21:57] Ymz
    It's me, Zakiyama.
