🕑 Added 2025-07-16 03:00:04 +0000 UTC(Translator-kin: Yey! New Volume, New List. I hope everyone will like the new List. Since this will be the new volume, I would like to try another format. Let me know if this one is good or if the old format is much better....)
~Projection of All Worlds~
Several days passed like this, and a new video began. Unlike before, this one started with an opening sequence.
。。。。。
【 As the words "Gintama: Kabukicho Four Devas Arc!" appeared on the screen, a stirring piece of music followed... HEY! HEY! 】
【 As the music played, the scene unfolded. Under a gloomy sky, Gintoki stood in a graveyard, holding his wooden sword, his eyes slightly downcast, his expression somewhat melancholic. The rain continued to fall incessantly. 】
You got your heads in the clouds, you aren’t trying to listen.
You’re deliberately ignoring my signs.
“We’re the same, we can understand each other perfectly”, that’s a mere delusion .
You don't even notice me standing here, do you?
【 Shinpachi and Kagura stood in front of the Yorozuya, also feeling dejected, their expressions somewhat troubled as they looked at the rain. 】
【 Tama the robot stood in the rain, letting it soak her, while Sadaharu also stood in the rain, his eyes seemingly looking at something. 】
All alone and in the crowd.
I feel empty as I stare at the sky.
This conversation is a game of catchball with myself.
My loneliness starts to grow.
【 。。。。。】
~Projection of All Worlds~
This music sounds somewhat exciting?! So, everyone in other worlds silently followed the melody and started tapping their feet.
~Puella Magi Madoka Magica World~
“But the atmosphere seems a bit depressing, with the rainy day and no one smiling.”
Madoka listened to the music, feeling the oppressive atmosphere within it.
But... don't tell me this white pet is a dog. What kind of dog is this big?
~K-On! World~
“This music is so catchy! Could it be a world about music?!”
Mio Akiyama closed her eyes slightly and listened attentively, not looking at the screen.
“Right, right!!”
Ritsu nodded excitedly, listening to the drums, wishing she could play along herself.
I don't know who wrote the lyrics and composed the music, but it's truly amazing! It's definitely a catchy song! It's just not very suitable for a female voice to sing, as a female voice wouldn't be able to convey that kind of power.
~Gintama World~
“Hey, hey! What's going on?! Author-san, I didn't hear anything about being on new list at this time.”
Gintoki, who had somehow changed into a suit, slicked back his hair, and held a rose in his hand, sat on the Yorozuya's sofa, looking like a big star.
“Yeah, I didn't even have time to prepare.”
Shinpachi also changed into a fashionable outfit, but said he was unprepared, seemingly unaware of anything.
Meanwhile, Kagura was already excitedly preparing to call her daddy and tell him she was on TV!
。。。。。
【 As the rain from the sky gradually moved down, Jirōchō and Gintoki faced each other in the rain! 】
HEY! HEY! Answer me!
Is there anybody there?
No matter how much I search, I don’t get an answer back.
Hey!! Hey!! I’m the only one who gets to decide
【 The two gradually approached each other. Gintoki and Jirōchō smiled slightly at each other in the rain, then both shouted and reached for the swords at their waists, charging at each other. 】
No matter if I cry, or smile, or hate, or love, I'll live on
Hey!! Hey!! Samurai Heart (Some like it hot!)
【 。。。。。】
~Rurouni Kenshin World~
“This seems to be a story about samurai?!”
Kenshin listened to the lyrics, which seemed to describe samurai.
However, the line “No matter if I cry, or smile, or hate, or love, I'll live on...” is truly wonderful.
~Gintama World~
“Hey, hey! Why is it only this idiotic curly-haired guy? What about our Shinsengumi?! Show us the atmosphere, you damn Sorachi Gorilla!”
Tōshirō Hijikata lit a cigarette, took a puff, and cursed under his breath.
The gorilla next to him... no, Isao Kondō also excitedly slapped the table:
“Exactly! Why the Four Devas?! This isn't a (censored) gourmet show.”
Sōgō, who was lying on the ground, changed his position and continued to lie down:
“Usually, shouldn't there be 'five' Four Devas? I think the Boss might be the fifth.”
“And Hijikata-san, this doesn't seem to be Sorachi Gorilla's fault. We seem to have changed sets now, it should be the damn fickle one who's to blame!”
。。。。。
On the other side, Kotaruo Katsura was currently squatting on the roof of the Yorozuya with Elizabeth, holding up a sign:
“I'm currently on standby at the Yorozuya!”
It was clear that he was very dissatisfied with not appearing in the opening sequence and was still trying hard to find an opportunity to appear.
。。。。。
【 After the music, the video officially began. The scene shifted to a tavern. 】
【 “You ask me who the strongest man in Kabukicho is? Are you from the countryside?” The owner held a bottle of sake and looked at the person in the cloak in front of him with some doubt. 】
【 “Don't ask around, this city is not on the same level. All kinds of scoundrels, skilled warriors, and down-and-out samurai are gathered here.” 】
【 “First of all, there are four monsters that are not on the same level as others: the Demon God Saigō! The Great Hero Jirōchō! The Peacock Princess Kada! The Empress Otose...” 】
【 The mysterious person in the cloak left the tavern, thinking about what the owner had just said. 】
【 “Otose's faction?! That's just a kind old woman, but if anyone dares to cause trouble there, someone won't just stand by and watch.” 】
【 The mysterious person walked down the street, looking at the silver-haired figure ahead, and as the two brushed past each other, he instantly drew his sword and struck! 】
【 “The super strong monster who single-handedly contends with the three major forces, with a head of silver hair... the Ogre!” 】
【 After a flash of sword light, Gintoki's hand was still on his wooden sword, seemingly not having drawn it! But the mysterious person's sword was broken in two. 】
【 Gintoki, who was called the Ogre, raised his head, displaying a dead-fish eye. 】
【 。。。。。】
~Projection of All Worlds~
“Speaking of which, what is his wooden sword made of? It can cut a real sword.”
“The Four Devas usually have five, that saying is indeed true... But what kind of Ogre looks so harmless?! Those dead-fish eyes don't have any killing intent at all.”
Everyone looked left and right, but they couldn't see any sign of an Ogre in this silver-haired guy?! Instead, those eyes had the aura of a useless middle age man.
~My Youth Romantic Comedy Is Wrong, As I Expected World~
“Um, is he your brother?”
Yukino Yukinoshita looked at those familiar dead-fish eyes, the kind of eyes that only a salted fish that had been dead for many years could possess.
Hachiman Hikigaya naturally knew what she meant, but he didn't want to say anything:
“...”
He didn't want to have dead-fish eyes, it was natural, there was nothing he could do about it, okay?!
~Gintama World~
“Yosh! We can arrest this damn curly-haired guy, on the charge of kidnapping a delinquent girl!”
Tōshirō Hijikata's mouth was almost split to his ears.
“Yamazaki! Go to the Yorozuya and arrest all of them...”
But Tōshirō Hijikata didn't hear a response for a long time, until Sōgō next to him spoke,
“Yamazaki already slipped away.”
“And bringing the Boss back will only waste the Shinsengumi's food.”
They weren't unaware of the Yorozuya's lack of integrity. They would do anything for money, and freeloading was a given.
On the other side of the Yorozuya, a scene of righteousness overcoming family was unfolding.
Kagura suddenly put on a motherly act, crying and reaching for the phone nearby:
“Okasan doesn't remember teaching you to join the yakuza! You're even being a delinquent, I'm going to call the police and have you arrested.”
“Shinpachi, don't stop me!”
A vein popped on Gintoki's forehead, who was she calling a delinquent?!
When I was in the yakuza, you weren't even born yet.
Shinpachi hugged Gintoki and wouldn't let go. He wasn't afraid of Kagura getting hurt, but he was afraid of the furniture getting broken and not having money to buy new ones!
(Translator-kun: if you're asking what song was used, it was ED17's "Samurai Heart (Some Like It Hot!)" by SPYAIR)
