Okay, let’s cut to the chase—if you’re a Gintama fan, you’ve probably been screaming into your pillow since Mr. Ginpachi’s Zany Class dropped its 10th episode, “Not Everything’s Better Short”. And if you’re new? Buckle up, because this spin-off is equal parts chaotic, nostalgic, and packed with the kind of jokes that’ll make you snort-laugh so loud your mom yells at you from the next room.
First off, for the uninitiated: this show swaps Gintoki’s usual Yorozuya chaos for a classroom setting where he’s Ginpachi Sakata, the most unqualified teacher ever at Gintama High. His class? Class 3-Z, a ragtag crew of idol otakus, mayo guzzlers, stalkers, and every other type of weirdo you can think of (shoutout to Crunchyroll for that spot-on description). Episode 10 keeps that energy cranked up to 11, with skits that feel like classic Gintama but with a school twist.
Fans on MyAnimeList are losing it over the return of familiar faces—Tsukuyo makes an appearance (and we all know we need more Ginpachi-Tsuki banter), and Zura (Katsura, for the new kids) is there being his usual over-the-top self. One user even called the episode a “1,000/10 masterpiece” because of bits like the Krillin exam skit (hello, Dragon Ball reference!) and a rehash of the iconic confession booth from the original series—things that had long-time fans screaming “BE FOREVER YOROZUYA!” in the comments.
But here’s the thing: Gintama’s jokes are famous for their deep-cut references, and this episode is no exception. A lot of fans mentioned needing those little “notes” to get all the gags (shoutout to fansubs that still do that!). For example, there are nods to Gojo Satoru (Jujutsu Kaisen), All Might (My Hero Academia), and even Coach Ansai—if you’re into shonen anime, you’ll catch those and grin like an idiot. But if you’re new? Don’t stress. Even without getting every reference, the slapstick comedy (like the Monk Hunt bit where hammer pants are a delinquent red flag) is still hilarious enough to make you choke on your snacks.
Another highlight? The 4th wall breaks. This show doesn’t hold back from joking about its own production issues—like not being able to get all the voice actors in one episode, or how the school setting feels awkward for the original Gintama cast. One fan pointed out that these meta jokes were exactly what they needed, even if some parts of the show haven’t hit as hard lately. It’s like the creators are winking at you, saying “we know this is weird, but let’s roll with it.”
And let’s talk about the episode title: “Not Everything’s Better Short”. Is that a jab at the short skits? Or maybe the joke about Otsuu’s song where someone yells “Not even 5!”? Either way, it’s classic Gintama—taking a silly phrase and turning it into a running gag that sticks with you.
For new viewers, some parts might feel confusing (like why everyone’s obsessing over Tsukuyo or Zura), but stick around. The show’s charm lies in its ability to make you care about these weirdos, even if you don’t get all the backstory. And for veterans? This episode is a love letter. It’s like hanging out with old friends who still know how to make you laugh until your sides hurt.
One user mentioned that the slapstick is a bit lighter than the original, but honestly? That’s okay. It’s a spin-off—so it’s allowed to have its own vibe. Plus, the nostalgia factor more than makes up for it. Seeing Ginpachi deal with a classroom full of chaos instead of aliens or samurai is a fun twist, and the skits are short enough that you never get bored.
Final thought: Whether you’re a die-hard Gintama fan or just looking for something to brighten your day, Episode 10 of Mr. Ginpachi’s Zany Class is worth every minute. It’s chaotic, it’s nostalgic, and it’s packed with the kind of jokes that’ll stay with you long after the episode ends. And let’s be real—we all need a little more Gintama in our lives right now.
So grab your favorite snack (mayo jar optional), sit back, and enjoy the chaos. You won’t regret it. Wakadaisho! (See? I picked up some Gintama slang already.)
— A very happy fan who’s already rewatched the episode twice.
P.S. If you’re new, go watch the original Gintama later. You’ll thank me.
P.P.S. Tsukuyo’s cameo is chef’s kiss. Don’t skip it.
