So Gintoki tells Kagura to go back to her father. Kagura, shocked and left with no choice, does so. She wonders why Gintoki asked her to leave. Then there’s a short flashback about Kagura’s past with her family and the planet she came from. Her mother died while her father and brother were away working their asses off. Now it is understood why she came to Earth. In the airport, her father says how unkind of her friends to not see her off. Back at Yorozuya, Shinpachi freaks out when he found out Gintoki abandoned Kagura. He wanted to tell him how important the place is for her, but forgets it and quits.
Kagura was all gloomy in the plane. Her father was making a commotion as he badly needs to go to the toilet. The stewardess tries to stop him, but he charges through the doors and finds the baka-prince sitting on the toilet. XD While baka-oji is “busy”, his personal assistant is busy giving orders to those in charge of looking after the prince’s monstrous-looking pets. Accidentally, his assistant trips and knocks down a glass container where one of the prince’s pets are kept. Suddenly, that “pet” coming from the container grows huge and attacks the ship they’re all in (including Kagura and her father). Not only does it attack the ship, the monster goes to Shinpachi’s direction. (Shinpachi, climbing from very tall ladder, was there trying to stop Kagura from leaving Earth. Guards were after him even. *lol*)
Gintoki and their pet are doing some part-time work advertising a movie entitled Yakuza vs. Alien.
But they were called by the movie manager and saw the live news on a monster attacking the Terminal. As soon as Gintoki sees Kagura fighting the monster alone, he rushes to the Terminal with Sadaharu. The monster was growing awfully huge, so it’s hard to tell how they will be able to defeat the monster.Kagura is seen in the end of the episode lying on the ground w/ blood that seems to come from her stomach/front.
Cliffhanger!
Episode 42
This is the last part of this alien-attacks-the-Terminal story. Things doesn’t look very good for Umibouzu. He sees his daughter dragged by the alien. Gintoki arrives, exiting from a monster’s mouth. He was so near Kagura, yet he couldn’t reach out for her. And so, Kagura was quickly taken away. Umibouzu questioned Gintoki’s presence knowing he abandoned Kagura. Gintoki told him he’s not there to take away Kagura. He just doesn’t want her to die to some alien. Both of them give everything they got to kill the alien. Later on, the core of the alien drops off hanging from the bottom of the ship. It became so huge after taking lots of energy from the Terminal. On the core, they saw Kagura attached and then quickly sucked in. To add more to their problem, the Shogunate arrives with battleships. Gorilla (I forgot his name *lol*) tells him not to attack because there are civilians on the alien. But he doesn’t listen and presses the fire button of his ship’s cannon. On the other hand, Gintoki was able to free Kagura from the alien. She was on berserk mode though. He was able to wake her up by teasing her using her favorite snack. They were suddenly shot with the cannon, looking unprepared. But they were saved by Umibouzu and his extremely strong umbrella. @_@;
Man, Gintoki can be jerk sometimes, but I just like how he shows his care for others especially for Shinpachi and Kagura. He said that it’s odd how much he could advice and help others when he hasn’t experienced anything like having a family and caring parents. That’s actually applicable irl. Like to me, for example. I give advices to friends and acquaintances when I haven’t experienced their problems. I guess it’s because I’ve seen and learned a lot from other people’s experiences? Though when I’m in a pinch, I’m clueless on what to do.
Episode 43
Everybody believes Kagura left with her father, so now they’re looking for a new female heroine. Three females fight for that role — Catherine, Sa-chan, and Otae-san. Catherine gets disqualified most of the time because she’s not really the “every guy’s type.”
It was creepy seeing her in a sailor-style school uniform. ^_^;;; None of the girls win because they kept bickering and even threatening the guys as to who will win the new female heroine contest. Otae is hilarious, but with Sa-chan around, the episode gets funnier. XD Kagura shows up in the end and tells them that only she will be able to keep up with them.
Which is true.
