Gintama.: Shirogane no Tamashii hen

Watch the Silver Soul Arc in a bright room and at a safe distance from your TV!!

The Liberation Army...

...retreated!

We win!

Silver Soul

Odd Jobs...

What are you doing there? I was worried sick, you know.

I couldn't believe what happened to Edo.

But I believed, because you all...

...will be massacred by my hand!

You're about to experience true fear now.

Let me tell you about my terrifying plan.

It involves...

not just flowers or plants.

I want to watch over the flower called mankind that I found on this planet, too.

Basically, this planet was a flower bed built to be trampled by me.

I want to bloom with you all as one of this planet's flowers.

M-My hand's stuck!

And when the flowers reach full bloom, this planet will be a garden of peace—

D-Did you break that seal?!

It's all over! You humans are done for, and so am I!

And so is this universe!

It's all ove—

New Half Pub 1/2 Grand Opening Chris Matsunosuke

That was close.

I'll be sure to repay this favor, humanity!

Not on my watch.

As long as I'm here, I won't let you do as you please, Hedora!

It's futile, Hedoro.

This body and this universe will be enveloped in total darkness soon!

H-He split into halves?

I'll protect both Earth and humanity.

I'll destroy both Earth and humanity.

I won't let you do as you please, Hedora!

What is even going on there?

I don't get it either,

It's futile, Hedoro.

but they look like they're having fun.

It's been a while since I've seen that kind of look on these people's faces.

I guess nothing beats peace after all.

Yeah, you're right.

Now, it's our time to shine.

The joy is short-lived.

The Yato move out at twilight.

Even if it's for just one night,

enjoy the peace while it lasts.

Silver Soul Arc

Peace and Destruction Are Two Sides of the Same Coin

Never thought I'd see the day when the Kabuki District

would be lit up not by neon lights, but by moonlight and bonfires.

This town is noisy all year round. Nights like these ain't so bad once in a while.

If we can see the town bathed in the light of dawn next, it'll be perfect.

We did force them to retreat, but it ain't like we won.

If the enemy force regroups and attacks again, we'll be defeated in a flash.

I didn't think I'd ever hear such meek words from you.

Living a long life has its benefits.

Did that sound meek to you?

I guess you've grown hard of hearing.

It's not such a bad thing.

The only ones who can complain and whine are those who have people they can rely on.

You've finally grown up, Jirocho.

Pah! I'd much rather be called a senile geezer than that!

What's this? You two used to constantly be at odds,

but you seem to be enjoying each other's company tonight.

Oh, am I interrupting?

Not at all, Saigo. I was just thinking I'd like to share a drink with you, too.

I'm actually a bit thankful we're in this situation, you know.

I feel like it has helped me like people a little more.

If it's a night like this, maybe it wouldn't be so bad if it turned out to be my last.

Nah. We haven't drank enough yet.

Everyone's so beat-up.

That's no surprise.

It's a miracle that we even drove that huge army back.

It's not just the people of the Kabuki District.

Everyone in Edo did everything they could,

as best they could.

That's probably why this miracle came about.

All you've been doing is getting in the way!

Pandemoniums are snacks that help with injuries and illnesses.

Would you like one?

Seriously, who would eat something so grotesque?!

Sorry. Am I being a nuisance after all?

I was so worried, I ended up coming along.

I guess I've become a really troublesome woman.

Sorry. I'll go away now.

Yeah, you're a nuisance.

If you're going to disturb my heart any further, just be with me forever!

You're the biggest nuisance here.

Shin-chan, Kagura-chan.

Forget about the straight man routine and get some rest.

Boss lady.

Gedomaru-san and friends volunteered for various tasks so that we could all rest.

They said they're not that tired yet,

and that they want more screen time since they only showed up in the latter stages.

Don't leak out your real motive at the end!

Gedomaru-san and gang are tending to the wounded and serving food.

They're going to turn us into food!

Seimei-san and Doman-san are guarding and keeping watch on the town.

My watchmen are scarier!

What? My watchmen are scarier!

These watchmen need watchmen of their own!

Ketsuno Ana is providing assistance via prayers and exorcism.

Tomorrow's weather will be nice and clear.

The perfect day for war.

Don't try to start a war!

If this is the time for everyone to do what they're supposed to,

then what you guys must do right now is rest.

Forget about everything and get some sleep.

B-But I'm worried the enemy might return at any time.

Relax. We're here for you, so eat lots and sleep well.

Sis, they're not sleeping! You finished them off!

Let's put them to sleep with that and then stuff Pandemoniums in their mouths.

That sounds good, too.

Hey! Why are these hazards to humanity feeding everyone?!

Can anybody bring food that's actually edible?!

You finally spilled the beans.

In truth, I knew all along how you felt about me.

So I'll confess, too.

I really wanted you to eat me.

Bye-bye. I love you.

Bring me every single Pandemonium you've got, right this instant!

Shinpachi, you seriously need to get some rest.

Really? I'll take you up on that offer and rest, then.

I'm worn out from all the fighting.

I finally made it back...

Back to you.

I'm back, Otae-san.

W-Welcome back, Kondo-san.

Otae-san!

Kondo-san!

Who're you calling Otae?!

O-Otae-san? Y-You're being too intense!

N-No! We can't do this!

Let go of Pandemonium-san!

What's with that scene right out of hell?

It seems the Pandemonium's illusion ability worked a bit too well on them.

What's all this?

He was saying he had a real chance, with the world about to end and all,

but all of this is no different than it has always been.

What are you saying, Hijikata-san?

This is what Kondo-san wanted.

The same old routine.

Just when the world is about to end, you finally return home?

I see that cops will always be cops.

Unfortunately, saving the world isn't in the police's job description.

But we have tons of other work to do.

Pretty much.

Don't know or care about the world,

but it looks like we did at least protect our home.

Guys...

You did well.

Boss lady, you're talking to the wrong thing.

So basically,

the Liberation Army won't be back for revenge immediately?

Kabuki District Four Devas

You mean we'll be safe for a while?

They're isolated from their main force in space.

They've lost both their comms and their chain of command.

In this situation, it'll be difficult to regroup a force that already crumbled once.

Shinsengumi

They were attacked by the bakufu army while on the run, and now they're scattered.

They don't have it in them to switch to attack.

If anything, this might be our chance to attack.

If we can rob them of their provisions,

we can watch the enemy crumble without having to fight.

You want us to make the first move?

Oniwaban

If we corner that huge force any more, who knows how they'll respond?

Besides...

Those unconfirmed reports about another mercenary squad worry me, too.

This victory was practically a miracle,

Yagyuu Chinkage School

and we had to pay a heavy price for it.

If we want more, we'll have to be prepared to sacrifice a lot more, too.

We didn't fight to win the war.

We fought to stop it.

Yoshiwara Defense Force Hyakka

If we willingly cause more casualties,

wouldn't it be the same as siding with the Liberation Army?

Seizing an opportunity is akin to grasping a log floating down a river.

Onmyoji Ketsuno Clan & Shirino Clan

Being cautious is all well and good,

but this might be our last shot at victory.

Brother, are you saying we must fight?

I'm saying that stopping a war needs more resolve than starting one.

Exactly. Let's fight.

But you know...

How do you feel, Odd Jobs?

Which option do you think we should choose?

Odd Jobs

I say go with curry.

Nobody's asking about dinner, Kagura-chan.

Well, uh...

I don't understand the complicated stuff,
