Editing is fine. Just a few things First off, Jiraya is actually a historical figure, one that Naruto and Gintama And Ruroni Kenshin all use. In this case Gintama and Kenshin are closer in agreement, with both having him be a man whose body was burned. That isn't to say there is no Naruto references here, there are a few, but the names (even Danzo) are coming from historical figures. Otherwise welcome to the back half of Gintama. You are gonna have a lot of 10s here. This is definitely a peak, but much like Yoshiwara in Flames there are Many higher peaks to come. This is just a fantastic look into Tsukuyo. Plus the parallels between her journey and Gintoki's as two deeply injured souls. They really share a bond that started in the previous time we saw her and has blossomed into something incredible. Jiraya is also well situated as another tortured soul who much like with Housen is someone that could have been saved if he had made just a few different choices down the road. If he had chosen to trust others rather than continue down the path of isolation. Where Housen was bloodshed and war, Jiraya's path is assassination and anonymity. Both poison to the soul, both leading people down irredeemable roads, both things that Gintoki has dealt with. In fact this one cuts much closer to home for Gintoki. Gintoki has had his fair share of bloodshed, but he never reveled in it. He was good at it, and as something he was good at it became the first tool in his kit during the war. But by the time the series starts he has already set that tool aside. Not to never be used, but as a last resort, not a first resort. Isolation, however. Well he's better at this point, but that's because a bunch of aggressive people have forced themselves upon him. Even now he generally tries to push people away, fearing the pain of losing them, that same fear that consumed Jiraya. Seeing that reflection cuts deep, and it makes sense that he has in the recent episodes started to open up more to others, that this too is a lesson he has had to learn and deal with. (We saw this recently in the Tama Quest arc too) Anyway, glad you had a good time, sorry if this was a bit rambly, I've been really sick for a few days. Great video!

Ahhh. You know I should have figured he's just a historical figure hahaha. This second half is already kicking us off with a bang too, just wow! Yep, I ABSOLUTELY love the parallels between Tsukki and Gin's paths; wasn't even thinking of Hosen's similarity too though, well recognized :D No worries by the way; honestly couldn't even notice you were sick. Hope you feel better man
