#Gintama manga chap 432

[razberryyum]

A Gintama chapter a day keeps the ending away...Lesson 432

MY 10 FAVORITE MOMENTS IN LESSON 432:

Moment 1: Ikumatsu looked pretty even as a ramen shop owner, but that kimono makes her look even more beautiful. Too bad Zura never gets to see her in it.

Moment 2: Discount Ikari should be happy they decided against using him as a surrogate for Ikumatsu’s dad...he’d be a bodyless sunglasses-wearing head.

Moment 3: Gintoki deserved that push for being totally vulgar.

Moment 4: I went from totally disliking Matsugorou for cheating on his wife to just feeling sad about him and the whole situation. 

Moment 5: I got all choked up during this moment. Just thinking of the guilt Daigo must have been experienced after finding out how Matsugorou’s one act of heroism led to the disintegration of his family just makes my heart HURT.

Moment 6: Heart hurt even more, especially since baby Ikumatsu was beyond adorable.

Moment 7: Crying again. We barely know Ikumatsu’s husband but my God did I already really like that guy and understand why Ikumatsu would want to stay a widow for him forever. It’s hard to get over such a good man.

Moment 8: Who would’ve though this old dude who has been around since...chapter 8, I believe...would end up being someone important? I love it when Sorachi-sama pulls tricks like this.

Moment 9: I just love this because the way these two goofballs eat bread crust is freaking weird. They’re sucking on it like sukonbou...I thought it was sukonbou until I remembered the chapter title.

Moment 10: “Zura-cchi”??

SHIPS TALLY:

Zura x Ikumatsu: at this point I realized any love there from Zura would probably be unrequited for a while, but I’m not sure if I was all too torn up about it since she probably deserves a man with a more stable and safer profession than Joui terrorist. 

Disclaimer: Gintama is not only about shipping. Gintama is hilarious, clever, exciting, poignant, heart-breaking, loving, brilliant, and just so freaking amazing.  It is only due to Sorachi-sama’s generosity that I can enjoy Gintama on yet another level, the shippy level, and I am forever grateful for that. GINTAMA IS LIFE AND LOVE.
