Thanx a lot... btw, i dun think i can predict anything in Gintama >_<

[Analog Fish]

Hey about the recent chapter, who was the guy wielding Benizakura and what chapter did he make his appearance in?

[Nami]

Hi Analog,

If I remember correctly, this guy has not appeared in any of the chapters before. Maybe his real identity will be revealed later on. These few chapters seem quite interesting. Btw,
Yorozuya had just released Chap 91 too.

Hey, you're right. I just realise most of Gintama chapters can be read independently, except for some arcs like this current one, where you had to follow closely. You should check this out too.

伊東たちと対峙する沖田

伊東「沖田君　君はもっと利口な男だと思っていたが　我々全員を一人で片づけるつもりか」
「近藤を逃がし　一人敵陣に残り討ち死にする事で悲壮美にでもひたろうというのかね」
「だが残念だったな　近藤は僕の計画通り　死ぬ」

「この戦場にいるのは　僕達だけではない」

近藤のいる車両を追いかける万斉と手下たち

沖田「………鬼兵隊か」
「ワリーね伊東さん　実は俺も一人じゃねェ　そろそろ…」

ドオウッっと鬼兵隊に爆撃

鬼兵隊の下っ端「なっ…」
沖田「おーきたきた」

伊東？「あ…あれは」（砂煙の中浮かび上がる車と人影）

伊東「バカな…あれは」

銀時（か神楽？）「御用改めであるぅぅぅ！！」
銀時「てめーらァァァ　神妙にお縄につきやがれ！！」

伊東「ひっ　土方ァァァァァ！！」
「なっ…何故奴がこんな所に…」

車の上に乗ってる土方に木の枝があたる

土方「いってェェェェェ！！　いってェェェェ！！」
銀時「てめェェェェ！少しの間位カッコつけてられねーのか！！」
「仲間の士気を高めるためには副長健在の姿を見せつけねーとダメだっつーんだよ！！」

土方「無理！！僕には無理だよっ！！恐い！！」

銀時「ふざけんなァ！！人を殴る時だけ復活してスグ元に戻りやがってェェ！！」

車上でドタバタしだす一行

沖田「…チッ　目ざわりなのがゾロゾロと　だが奴等潰すには　軍隊一個あっても足らねーぜ」

煽り：反撃開始！！運命の攻防！！

thanks bomber. i wish the scans were caught up. then my group would do the new gintama every week (in my dreams). gintama takes a long time to go through the R/T/S process. but we are on our way to getting set up. i think we are going to ally with rumbelsubs and then there would be a small but dedicated team working on the gintama scans. so just keep doing what you're doing and we'll probably end up using your translations to get something out for the people to read!

[ran0001]

My favorite quote in Gintama is Gin-san's "I wish I had something like Bankai" hehehe that made me laugh.Makes me wish he had one too =D.

Yorozuya's purpose? To make us laugh of course! =P

[Nami]

Great to hear about this! ShadowScans!
Once the missing chapters had been done, Gintama can make it to the R/T/S!
Please keep us informed of your progress alright?

And Bomber is doing fantastic these days...Chapter 162!! Can't imagine, i had not even read that far yet into the chinese raws, and this chapter looks interesting.

I always like to see Gintoki & Hijikita together, they fight so well, and they are so loggerheads with each other everynow and then. And it seems like even Okita had gotten into his plan to get rid of Hijikita?! I'm not sure what this story is, since i think this chapter is from the middle of some arc. Am I right?

[kashi_n]

- What do you think is the purpose of the Yorozuya?
To stimulate my brain with silliness

- You likes or peeves on the Yorozuya?
I would like to stalk them

- Your favourite quotes from Gintama?
There's too may.. T^T

- Or the most comical or stupidest assignment so far done by the Yorozuya?!
all of them

今週は星海坊主が主役

とある星に謎の生命体がやってきてその星を攻撃
必死に抵抗する戦士も美人隊長カイとイワノフの二人だけになりいよいよ終わりの時が
そこにやってきた星海坊主
カツラかぶってるけどズレてる

救世主が来たと地下に隠れる人々に共に戦おうと訴えるカイだが諦めきった人々は声を聞かない
おまけにイワノフが星海坊主のカツラをばらし民衆にバカにされ説得は失敗
だがカツラの件はイワノフがわざとやったことだった
それを見抜いてた星海坊主にこの星はもう滅ぶというイワノフ

謎の生命体はこの星そのものだと言ったところで次回に続く


Somebody with a little better japanese comprehension should do it but what i gather from it is that Kagura's dad is trying to defeat an alien, but it splits into two and heads down to earth where Katsura is trying to either defeat or observe it. When that fails Kagura's dad (or Umibouzu) tries to fight against it but its getting stronger.

Thats all for the week.

Ok, first of all, I'm not sure if this is the appropriate thread to ask this, but since this is where I downloaded it, I'm gonna assume it is.

I recently downloaded the Gintama from issue #28, the one with the popularity rankings on it, and since I have no ability in speaking Japanese whatsoever, plus there are multiple characters appearing in a frame representing the place that character got in the ranking, could someone please help me and tell what the popularity rankings of Gintama is in text form? Much appreciated.

I've had a look and I believe they are rankings of people's favourite scene from the manga hence showing the manga panels.

[Nami]

Thanks Bomber. This should appear in this week's Shonen #29?
Gotta check out the raws.

[prutas]

Oh, well that makes a whole lot more sense. So if this isn't the Gintama character popularity ranking, then has there ever been one?

[Nami]

I'm not sure about the character popularity, don't remember seeing it in the tanks, and don't really keep track of the shonen mag too.

=========================

Heh, was reading the recent translation by Aki on the Chief's daughter chapter, saw this funny quib

Quote:

Matsudaira: Anyway, when are we going to catch up to them? We aren't getting closer at all.

Hijikata: Of course we aren't getting closer! This is a merry-go-round!

Plain silliness
