Gintama 527

I don't even know what the Gorilla wants from us anymore. Laughter? Tears? Bananas? Someone please tell me what to do.



Also I have a plurk now, so feel free to friend me there and stuff.

???: Dear Shogun..
We may have opposed each other as enemies but...
we possessed the same will to create a better country.
I shall offer you a requiem with my own two hands.
I was unable to keep my promise as an enemy...
But in pursuit of the same will...
(Sfx- Basaaah fwisssh)
???: As a friend I will...
fulfill my promise.
(Side text- A vow as the flowers dance....)
GINTAMA
Lesson 527: The modern and the antiquated.
SORACHI HIDEAKI

002
(Sign- Kadokan dojo.)
Tae: Well...I'm off to work...
(Sfx- Shaka shaka dmm dmm)
Tae: Not going out today...
Either I take it?
(Sfx- Shaka shaka dmm dmm)
Tae: When you do decide to head off to the Yorozuya...
Please lock the doors, okay?
Shinpachi: Sister...
There's not really any reason to lock up or be worried about anything is there.
He's not coming from under the celing...
Or the floorboards..

003
Shinpachi: Not from the shadows of the fence...
Or the telephone pole..
The stalker Gorilla is no where to be found.
But...
Y'know what?
It's actually...
Not that great.

004
{A long time ago some idiot somewhere asked me this...}
{If you were on abandoned island, what is the one thing you'd absolutely need to have with you.}
{My answer was...}
{Kamyu.}
{Humans are creatures who need water to live.}
{However men only need booze.}
{That's because it's the sorta thing that suits everything.}
{Be it fish, meat, or women.}
{Be it grumbling or tearful complaints.}
{Men can drink up the worlds tasty and nasty things when they're blended with booze.}
(Sfx- Gan slam)
{However even booze has a snack that it shouldn't be mixed with.}

005
Gintoki: God. Why did you have to show your depressing mug here when I'm trying to get hammered?
Now the taste is going to go to shit.
Hijikata: When I'm feeling down I drink booze to feel better. So go the hell home wouldya?
This is my friggin' welcome party in the first place, so why the hell are you here?
Gintoki: I was invited to come by those guys, and that's it!
Otherwise who the fuck would drink with a guy who has a rain season moist ball*ack for a face like you?
Hijikata: Who's a ball*ack face? Listen, I don't want to hear that from a guy who's whole being is like a dried up ball*ack year round.
{Booze and idiots.}
Gintoki: Dried up balls are a hell of a lot more sanitary then wet sloppy ones, ball*ack!!
Hijikata: When this conversation became about ball*acks, sanitation went out the window ball*ack!!
Haiji: It was a good idea ta' call Gin-san to come too wasn't it bro?
I've never seen tha Vice cap'n so lively before!
(Sfx- Gyah gyah)
{Seems that what one would need on an abandoned island just went up by one.}
{The things known as men need an “enemy” to keep them sharp and tighten up their ball*sack it seems.}
Tae: That has nothing to do with an abandoned island or ball*acks anymore.
{The things known as men need an “enemy” to keep them sharp and tighten up their ball*sack it seems.}

006
Tae: Can you just stop it already?
{Gyahhhhh}
Tae: If you only came here to start a ruckus, then please just go home.
{Before that could you not use other's Hardboiled musings...}
{As weapons, please?}
(Sfx- Gan gan thok thok)
(Sfx- Oraaaaaaaaaah)
Tae: But if...
You'd really like to have a drink then...
I'll gladly accompany you.
Hijikata: Who'd be able to drink something poured with that expression?
If there's something you wanna ask me then don't do it in a place like this, and ask me while I'm sober.
Same goes to you.
Unfortunately I can't really give you any decent sorta answer.
Reason being is that I'm not sure my damn self of what I want to do or what's going on. I can't even see where I'm placing my feet in front of me anymore.

007
Hijikata: Moreover my friends are scatted all over.
It might be shocking to hear this from the Demonic vice captain but...
Without that person...
I can't do anything.
???: Now that just isn't true.
You're doing a fine job.
You lost everything for the sake of your foolish superior...
And now you live as an officer...
Putting the kibosh on minor matters and working yourself for the sake of Edo...
You deserve only the highest praise...
Directly from me, the Chief of police...
You've done well, loser.

008
???: Sasaki.
(Sfx- Katsuhh sfft)
???: I'd like to just forget my official duties for today..
Dive in with the muicipal government...
And have a peek at the lives of the civilians under me.
My predecessor Lord Shigeshige found this amusing didn't he?
Then I too should imitate him.
There is no need to fix yourselves for me...
just drink like I'm not here.
Tonight...
I am simply Nobunobu.
So you needent'...
Mind the whimpering of a bunch of mongrels.

009
???: You're Okita Sougo of the Shinsengumi right?
(Sfx- Zazaah ssshffft)
Okita: You've got the wrong guy. Get lost.
???: Come quietly with us...
Okita: You deaf...?

010
Okita: The thing known as the Shinsengumi...
No longer exists.
So then what is it do you want?
Are you Patriots coming to look for revenge now that we're all seperated?
That's a good decision actually.
I'm not affiliated with any organizations, nor do I have my officer's licensee.
(Sxf- Gachaa clack)
Okita: Since I don't have anything I'd might as well be a manslayer.
Since there's no slammer I can book you gents to, how's a trip to hell sound?
I'll forget all about my responsibilities and duties....and go full throttle.
Guys: B—bastard....
(Sfx- Dohhh thok)

011
(Sfx- zusaaaah dssssh)
Guys: Goaaaah!!
Kagura: Move it.
I am out for a walk, uh-huh.
Nobunobu: Tonight's drinks are all on me. I'm buying out the shop.
So everyone should just drink and be merry.
(Sfx- Toku toku pouuuur)

012
Nobunobu: You too...
Will you pray that Lord Shigeshige finds happiness in the next world...?
Or will you...
Pray for Kondo...your superior instead?
Sasaki: Nobunobu-sama, I believe you're speaking in haste.
Matsudaira Katakuriko and Kondo Isao's execution is still five days away.
There's still the matter of cleaning up the remnants of the old Government.
After all we have to take into consideration that as they draw breath they are not preparing to rebel.
Nobunobu: I'm telling you to forget about work. We've already hunted all of those who would dare to oppose me.
But hows this for a test?
We allow this man ---Hijikata was it? To run the execution.

013
Nobunobu: It'd make for a brief diversion...to see if he'll protect his men or his superior from execution..
Plus it would serve as an opportunity for him to prove his loyalty to me.
If he's worried about shedding a tear over it then...
we can just leave the execution of his friends in his hands too.
What's wrong?
You aren't drinking.
You won't drink...
My booze?
(Sfx- Gashaaaaa crassssh)
Girl: Eeek!
(Sfx- Koro koro roooolll)
Nobunobu: Hmm..
I guess it's not strange you won't drink...this vulgar liquid isn't meant for consumption.
I heard this was Lord Shigeshige's favorite bar, but the booze and the woman are insufferable to me.
Girl: I—I'm sorry! That was Lord Shigeshige's favorite course....
Nobunobu: I see....I apologize. Please would you clean it up?
Girl: Right away sir!
Nobunobu: Not that...

014
Nobunobu: You need to be cleaned.
(Sfx- Dohh dohh shiffshshhf)
Someone: Kyaaaaah!!!
Nobunobu: As if I'd be satisfied by the same things that man was...
I, Tokugawa Nobunobu am a man who will spearhead a new era.
So it only makes sense that the women, booze, and underlings I have would be superior to his in every way.
If you don't have high grade booze, then bring me your most beautiful women.
Tae: What is it...
That you all are doing?

015
Tae: Hurting people who have done nothing wrong...
You're just creating a world that's convenient for you....
A new era?
There isn't a single person...
Who'd follow you there!!
You can't even protect the civilians who support the country....
Yet you call yourself a Shogun? The police?!
Heiji: Otae-chan!
(Sfx- Zahhh shffft)
Nobunobu: This is MY new era...
Which is to say in short...inefficient police who cannot protect the shogun or the civillians...
and their shogun who died unable to protect the country...
are no longer needed.
(Sfx- Zahhh shffft)

016
Nobunobu: As should...
Foolish civillians...
Who point a blade at the new era.
Tae: A real officer.....
a real samurai...
Wouldn't do such things.
That man...
wouldn't do this.

017

018
(Sfx- goshaaah)
Gintoki: Hold that fist.
(Sfx- Potaa driiip)
Gintoki: Use it to pop that stupid commander of yours one for abandoning you.

019
(Sfx- Gabaaaah thooooom)
Gintoki: You po-po don't need to do anything.
A guy who yammers like a drunk is suited to get punched out by a drunk.
(Side text- Gintoki –a man of pride!)
