2) How did Gintoki even resist that??

3) At least Tae-chan served him a glass of wine while she made her demand...I saw that as an improvement on their relationship.

4) I’m kinda proud of the fact that Gintoki was more focused on Sacchan’s glasses than her boobs...cuz honestly I would’ve expected him to be more about the boobs considering how he talks about women sometimes. Lol.

5) It made me so happy to hear Tae-chan say that...even though it also kinda broke my heart that she gave him up to someone else so easily.

6) This was so sweet: they’re horrible wingmen for each other, but I thought it was so touching that they pitied each other enough to genuinely try to make things right for each other.

7) Tae-chan’s complete lack of self-awareness on how Sacchan sees her is truly admirable.

8) Madao is probably too much of a M for Sacchan. 

On to part two:

9) I just love Gintoki’s smile here. So sincere and sweet and pure.

10) I liked the oden stand owner. He was so dirty-minded and hilarious.

11) Cameos by...I am actually not sure at all. I tried looking it up on the Ginta-wiki but it was no help. The one on the right looks like one of the Osomatsu boys but not sure who the other two are...like friends of his or something? 

12) It was nice seeing the little girl again and I’m glad her mom is nicer now. 

13) Honestly, considering what Santa did to Kagura last time he came around, I wasn’t really too invested in his whole saga with Ben, but for the sake of the kids that do believe in Santa Claus and need him for their Christmas presents, I guess I’m glad that he got his happy ending.

SHIPS TALLY:  

Kondou x Otae: sure glad all hope was not lost for them since I can easily just not count this episode as canon.

Gintoki x Sacchan: for Sacchan’s sake, I’m glad all hope was not lost for her since everyone is going to forget about everything that happened her by the next episode.

Kondou x Sacchan: they would have terrible fashion sense as a couple (seriously, why the visors???) but they do have a lot in common. I am in denial about whether they would have a higher chance of happiness going for each other than for their respective stalkees crushes since I am still holding onto my hope for KonTae to become canon. 

Honorable mentions: Kondou x Catherine and Hasegawa x Sacchan thanks to  Tae-chan and Gin-chan.
