Shin: Uh, that's how Frieza-sama kills things.
Shin: Let him have his fun.
Shin: Hasegawa-san did his best, too.
Tae: Shin-chan... We all worked together to protect Edo.
Tae: I can't and won't stand for anyone belittling our efforts.
Tae: Besides, I wanna sock him because he pisses me off.
Shin: What happened to our efforts?!
Tae: If I'm being subtle, I hate old men who dress like EX*LE and don't act their age.
Tae: But I do like High & Low.
Shin: That was so unsubtle, the rising sun's shining through that thin veil!
Tae: Also, I've heard that he goes around partying for free, calling himself the hero.
Shin: Where'd you get that information, Sis?
Shin: Didn't you quit that lifestyle?
Tae: These two years didn't just give birth to heroes.
Tae: Where there is light, there is always a shadow.
Shin: Where'd those Zarbon-san and Dodoria-san cabaret girls come from?!

Kon: Sorry I'm late. The hotpot is finally done.
Shin: Sorry to always make you do this.
Kon: Nah, it's fine.
Kon: I am going to be a stay-at-home dad soon, after all.
Kon: Besides, Otae-san needs a balanced and nutritious diet right now.
Kon: Worrying about the others is fine,
Kon: but you also need to think about your new path.
Tae: I-I know.
Shin: Hasegawa-san was a shocker, but you weren't far behind.
Sign: Resignation
Sign: Special Police Shinsengumi
Kon: I'd be lying if I said it was an easy decision.

Shin: Is that so?

Oto: We senior citizens don't even get any extra wrinkles at this point,
Oto: but the passage of time is terrifying.
Cat: What are you saying, Otose-san?
Cat: You do have extra wrinkles at the corners of your eyes.
Cat: That's hilarious!
Shin: Um, Catherine-san, did your face get run over by a time machine?
Cat: The passage of time isn't what's causing all this.
Cat: It's the final episode.
Cat: Lately, as the final episode draws near,
Cat: characters have suddenly started forming couples,
Sign: Final Episode: Final Fantasy Phenomenon (Mating)
Cat: in what's called the Final Fantasy Phenomenon.
Oto: What the hell?
Oto: Will we be paired off with some randos, too?!
Cat: I'm so scared, I can't sleep!
Shin: Hey! Someone bring me a Delorean!
Gen: Shut up, you hags!
Gen: Instead of final fantasying with you two,
Gen: men would much rather dragon quest alone!
Sign: Dragon Quest Appeasing the Pants Dragon
Shin: That's what DQ meant?!
Cat: Don't talk to us! What if that sets a flag, you geezer?!
Oto: But I was sure she was in love with Gintoki, you know.
Shin: Stop that! That's gross!
Oto: I wonder if she final fantasy'd after he treated her nicely when she was lonely.
Cat: Those final fantasies are the ones that tend to work out best, surprisingly.
Oto: They do say it's final fantasier for girls to be loved than love.
Shin: No, they don't!
Shin: You two just want to keep saying final fantasy, huh?
Oto: What's wrong with you? We're trying to cheer you up here!
Oto: Then show us the wedding photos.
Oto: Show us the photos of the gorilla and female gorilla.
Oto: Show the goods!
CaT: Show the goods!
Shin: Here.
Oto: Otae sure has grown in size in the short while I haven't seen her.
Shin: That's a gorilla.
Cat: But over here...
Shin: That's a gorilla.
Shin: It was a political marriage.
Shin: He's been cooking for us to get some househusband training as part of his stalking.
Shin: And it was surprisingly good.
Shin: She gained tons of weight.
Shin: But she still couldn't stop.
Shin: It was a samurai's mercy.
Shin: Flags and foreshadowing don't matter.
Shin: Neither do species, age gap, gender, or whether you recognize them or not.
Shin: That's the Gintama anime's final fantasy.
Tam: I finally found you.
Tam: I've been looking all over.
Tam: Papa!
Shin: It's happening!
Shin: Final fantasy has bared its fangs at me, too!
Tam: Papa!
Oto: Sh-Shinpachi...
Cat: Don't tell me you...
Shin: You've got it all wrong!
Shin: This is a trap that final fantasy's trying to stick me in!
Cat: Don't play dumb! You're the one who stuck it in!
Shin: T-To begin with, isn't it weird that I'd have a kid this old in just two years?
Tam: Weird?
Tam: Am I weird, Papa?
Tam: Is that why you can't be my papa?
Shin: Uh, th-that's not it!
Cat: You're the worst!
Shin: Again, you're wrong!
Cat: Give us proof, then! Prove your innocence!
Shin: Uh, well...
Shin: I'm a virgin.
Shin: I gradually changed my hair part so people wouldn't notice my new look,
Shin: but my lower half is still drinking Ramune at a candy store with a crew cut.
Oto: Yeah, we knew.
Shin: Then why'd you make me say it?!
Cat: It pissed us off that you're side-parting your hair as a cherry boy.
Shin: Fine! I'll get a crew cut up here too, then!
Tam: Mama! This guy's a cherry!
Shin: Hey! Even a child knows my dirty secret now!
Tam: Hey, Mama. What's a cherry?
Kin: A cherry is one who's abandoned their duty to propagate.
Kin: A piece of junk, in other words.
Kin: Add that to your data.
Kin: And as I keep telling you, this isn't your Mama.
Kin: She's you. Add that, too.
Tam: Understood.
Shin: Tama-san... Kin-san...
Gen: Oh, there you are.
Gen: The Fuyo Number Zero's mini version, AKA Tamako.
Gen: She contains a part of Tama, which I copied into her.
Gen: Everything she sees while Tama's in sleep mode will become Tama's memories.
Shin: So Tama-san's been that way since then?
Gen: Yeah.
Gen: I mean, she's a special model built by the robotics science genius, Hayashi Ryuzan.
Gen: I can't tell just which screws she's missing or what.
Gen: But I just don't have the heart to leave her like this.
Shin: Gengai-san...
Gen: We're still better off than most, you know.
Gen: After all, Edo still has Odd Jobs to help in times of need.
Shin: I still ended up having to walk around looking like a real father.
Shin: Anyway, what does Gengai-san want from me?
Tam: To show me all sorts of things while Fuyo Number Zero is asleep, Papa-sama.
Shin: Don't call me Papa-sama.
Tam: I apologize for earlier.
Tam: That was a plan to leech free oil from you people
Tam: upon Kintoki-sama's suggestion, Cherry-sama.
Shin: Could you not call me Cherry?!
Tam: But he also said that you would definitely take on this request.
Kin: After all, the Odd Jobs is a group of perverts who always keep one loli around.
Shin: What the hell does he see Odd Jobs as?!
Tam: But despite bashing you people, everyone sounds somewhat lonely doing it...
Tam: I heard you disbanded. What was the reason?
Shin: Add this to your data:
Shin: One does not ask questions like that to someone they've met for the first time.
Tam: Then what are the chances of Odd Jobs making a comeback?
Shin: Were you listening to me?
Shin: None, probably.
Tam: Why is that?
Shin: Because they found other things they needed to do.
Tam: Did you stay back in Edo because you didn't have anything like that?
Gin: Shinpachi,
Gin: is there anything you want to do?
Shin: I had something.
Shin: Helping rebuild the town,
Shin: swordsmanship training,
Shin: Otsu-chan fanclub activities,
Shin: and...
Shin: Bring back Father's dojo!
Gin: Wow, you've got a bunch.
Shin: Yes, so I'll be fine.
Sign: Odd Jobs Gin-chan
Shin: You can go.
Gin: Later.
Shin: I had lots of things I needed and wanted to do,
Shin: so why am I stuck doing this?
Cop: You there.
Cop: Do you have a moment?
Cop: Are you two siblings?
Shin: Well, no, we're kinda like friends.
Cop: Hmm...
Cop: Could you breathe into this, please?
Shin: Huh? I haven't been drinking, though.
Cop: Ah, you're over the legal limit.
Cop: See it?
Cop: When the reading goes past this point,
Cop: you're a virgin.
Shin: What are you even checking?!
Cop: Put under arrest at : PM for illegal loli possession.
Shin: Wait! You've gotta be kidding me!
Shin: Somebody help!
Nob: Hold it.
Nob: Do you realize who that is?
Cops: C-Commissioner-General!
Shin: Commissioner?
Nob: He's one of the heroes who saved this country.
Nob: Not someone you rookies can punish.
Nob: You can either commit seppuku
Nob: or get cut to pieces by the Commissioner-General of Police, Imai Nobume.
Nob: Make your choice, lolicon trash.
Soyo: While we've entered a new age, Edo is still beholden to old conventions.
Soyo: I want to make the coming era one where women can be independent and shine.
Soyo: And by becoming the first female Commissioner-General,
Soyo: Nobume-san is laying the foundation for that.
Soyo: What do you think, Shinpachi-san?
Soyo: The new government's police force seems trustworthy, does it not?
Shin: Princess Soyo, may I say something?
Shin: I really want to call right now.
Soyo: Um, I don't understand what you're saying.
Shin: Isn't it obvious, you natural-born sadist?!
Nob: Tamako gave me the gist of the story.
Nob: As a token of apology,
Nob: I've hired Odd Jobs to clean the windows.
Shin: This disaster's supposed to be an apology?!
Shin: And all that aside, Nobume-san,
Shin: I thought you weren't the kind of person who'd cling to power!
Nob: I have no interest in power,
Nob: but I can't leave the princess alone.
Shin: But look at you, enjoying that power!
Nob: While Utsuro's plan was foiled,
Nob: the bakufu's old, wily foxes are still around.
Nob: One misstep, and this country will start crumbling down again.
Nob: The princess really needs a sneaky, twisted advisor right now.
Nob: I'll deal with this uncomfortable chair for a while.
Soyo: Thank you, Nobume-san.
Shin: Uh, what happened to the Shinsengumi?
Shin: Weren't they the ones on track to climb the ladder first?
Mat: True.
Mat: Their swords did carve open a path to this new era.
Mat: But swords that are too sharp
Mat: are always scorned in times of peace.
Shin: Lord Matsudaira!
Shin: What is this?
Mat: A summary of the new government's orders for the Shinsengumi.

Oto: I wonder if she final fantasy'd after he treated her nicely when she was lonely.
Cat: Those final fantasies are the ones that tend to work out best, surprisingly.
Oto: They do say it's final fantasier for girls to be loved than love.
Shin: No, they don't!
Shin: You two just want to keep saying final fantasy, huh?
Oto: What's wrong with you? We're trying to cheer you up here!
Oto: Then show us the wedding photos.
Oto: Show us the photos of the gorilla and female gorilla.
Oto: Show the goods!
CaT: Show the goods!
Shin: Here.
Oto: Otae sure has grown in size in the short while I haven't seen her.
Shin: That's a gorilla.
Cat: But over here...
Shin: That's a gorilla.
Shin: It was a political marriage.
Shin: He's been cooking for us to get some househusband training as part of his stalking.
Shin: And it was surprisingly good.
Shin: She gained tons of weight.
Shin: But she still couldn't stop.
Shin: It was a samurai's mercy.
Shin: Flags and foreshadowing don't matter.
Shin: Neither do species, age gap, gender, or whether you recognize them or not.
Shin: That's the Gintama anime's final fantasy.
Tam: I finally found you.
Tam: I've been looking all over.
Tam: Papa!
Shin: It's happening!
Shin: Final fantasy has bared its fangs at me, too!
Tam: Papa!
Oto: Sh-Shinpachi...
Cat: Don't tell me you...
Shin: You've got it all wrong!
Shin: This is a trap that final fantasy's trying to stick me in!
Cat: Don't play dumb! You're the one who stuck it in!
Shin: T-To begin with, isn't it weird that I'd have a kid this old in just two years?
Tam: Weird?
Tam: Am I weird, Papa?
Tam: Is that why you can't be my papa?
Shin: Uh, th-that's not it!
Cat: You're the worst!
Shin: Again, you're wrong!
Cat: Give us proof, then! Prove your innocence!
Shin: Uh, well...
Shin: I'm a virgin.
Shin: I gradually changed my hair part so people wouldn't notice my new look,
Shin: but my lower half is still drinking Ramune at a candy store with a crew cut.
Oto: Yeah, we knew.
Shin: Then why'd you make me say it?!
Cat: It pissed us off that you're side-parting your hair as a cherry boy.
Shin: Fine! I'll get a crew cut up here too, then!
Tam: Mama! This guy's a cherry!
Shin: Hey! Even a child knows my dirty secret now!
Tam: Hey, Mama. What's a cherry?
Kin: A cherry is one who's abandoned their duty to propagate.
Kin: A piece of junk, in other words.
Kin: Add that to your data.
Kin: And as I keep telling you, this isn't your Mama.
Kin: She's you. Add that, too.
Tam: Understood.
Shin: Tama-san... Kin-san...
Gen: Oh, there you are.
Gen: The Fuyo Number Zero's mini version, AKA Tamako.
Gen: She contains a part of Tama, which I copied into her.
Gen: Everything she sees while Tama's in sleep mode will become Tama's memories.
Shin: So Tama-san's been that way since then?
Gen: Yeah.
Gen: I mean, she's a special model built by the robotics science genius, Hayashi Ryuzan.
Gen: I can't tell just which screws she's missing or what.
Gen: But I just don't have the heart to leave her like this.
Shin: Gengai-san...
Gen: We're still better off than most, you know.
Gen: After all, Edo still has Odd Jobs to help in times of need.
Shin: I still ended up having to walk around looking like a real father.
Shin: Anyway, what does Gengai-san want from me?
Tam: To show me all sorts of things while Fuyo Number Zero is asleep, Papa-sama.
Shin: Don't call me Papa-sama.
Tam: I apologize for earlier.
Tam: That was a plan to leech free oil from you people
Tam: upon Kintoki-sama's suggestion, Cherry-sama.
Shin: Could you not call me Cherry?!
Tam: But he also said that you would definitely take on this request.
Kin: After all, the Odd Jobs is a group of perverts who always keep one loli around.
Shin: What the hell does he see Odd Jobs as?!
Tam: But despite bashing you people, everyone sounds somewhat lonely doing it...
Tam: I heard you disbanded. What was the reason?
Shin: Add this to your data:
Shin: One does not ask questions like that to someone they've met for the first time.
Tam: Then what are the chances of Odd Jobs making a comeback?
Shin: Were you listening to me?
Shin: None, probably.
Tam: Why is that?
Shin: Because they found other things they needed to do.
Tam: Did you stay back in Edo because you didn't have anything like that?
Gin: Shinpachi,
Gin: is there anything you want to do?
Shin: I had something.
Shin: Helping rebuild the town,
Shin: swordsmanship training,
Shin: Otsu-chan fanclub activities,
Shin: and...
Shin: Bring back Father's dojo!
Gin: Wow, you've got a bunch.
Shin: Yes, so I'll be fine.
Sign: Odd Jobs Gin-chan
Shin: You can go.
Gin: Later.
Shin: I had lots of things I needed and wanted to do,
Shin: so why am I stuck doing this?
Cop: You there.
Cop: Do you have a moment?
Cop: Are you two siblings?
Shin: Well, no, we're kinda like friends.
Cop: Hmm...
Cop: Could you breathe into this, please?
Shin: Huh? I haven't been drinking, though.
Cop: Ah, you're over the legal limit.
Cop: See it?
Cop: When the reading goes past this point,
Cop: you're a virgin.
Shin: What are you even checking?!
Cop: Put under arrest at : PM for illegal loli possession.
Shin: Wait! You've gotta be kidding me!
Shin: Somebody help!
Nob: Hold it.
Nob: Do you realize who that is?
Cops: C-Commissioner-General!
Shin: Commissioner?
Nob: He's one of the heroes who saved this country.
Nob: Not someone you rookies can punish.
Nob: You can either commit seppuku
Nob: or get cut to pieces by the Commissioner-General of Police, Imai Nobume.
Nob: Make your choice, lolicon trash.
Soyo: While we've entered a new age, Edo is still beholden to old conventions.
Soyo: I want to make the coming era one where women can be independent and shine.
Soyo: And by becoming the first female Commissioner-General,
Soyo: Nobume-san is laying the foundation for that.
Soyo: What do you think, Shinpachi-san?
Soyo: The new government's police force seems trustworthy, does it not?
Shin: Princess Soyo, may I say something?
Shin: I really want to call right now.
Soyo: Um, I don't understand what you're saying.
Shin: Isn't it obvious, you natural-born sadist?!
Nob: Tamako gave me the gist of the story.
Nob: As a token of apology,
Nob: I've hired Odd Jobs to clean the windows.
Shin: This disaster's supposed to be an apology?!
Shin: And all that aside, Nobume-san,
Shin: I thought you weren't the kind of person who'd cling to power!
Nob: I have no interest in power,
Nob: but I can't leave the princess alone.
Shin: But look at you, enjoying that power!
Nob: While Utsuro's plan was foiled,
Nob: the bakufu's old, wily foxes are still around.
Nob: One misstep, and this country will start crumbling down again.
Nob: The princess really needs a sneaky, twisted advisor right now.
Nob: I'll deal with this uncomfortable chair for a while.
Soyo: Thank you, Nobume-san.
Shin: Uh, what happened to the Shinsengumi?
Shin: Weren't they the ones on track to climb the ladder first?
Mat: True.
Mat: Their swords did carve open a path to this new era.
Mat: But swords that are too sharp
Mat: are always scorned in times of peace.
Shin: Lord Matsudaira!
Shin: What is this?
Mat: A summary of the new government's orders for the Shinsengumi.
