In Sakuramitsutsuki the English lyrics in the full version when we’re heading to the chorus is, “That day, we exchanged promises…”
Amazing how it really connected to Shoyo telling Gintoki in Rakuyo not to learn his way of the sword but rather learn the sword of a Human. “I expect great things from you..” Hence a promise was made
The Second one is Shoyo telling Gintoki to not follow him but Protect their Friends and that it’s not a big deal and he’ll be back very soon. “It’s a promise...” Then they made another promise
Now the Chorus, “For we… For we… Have been searching for that Broken Moon’s Other Half…”
That day, when Shoyo met Gintoki. Who really took the other in? Who saved who?
Shoyo often said Gintoki reminds him of himself. Born into a pool of sins, a Void striving to survive, while Gintoki was just an Empty corpse eating demon until he found his place when Shoyo took him into Shoka Sonjuku.
Let’s continue the chorus, “If we could share the burden of this Loneliness, Then, Once more, I Vow…” Many things came to mind. When they met each other, when Shoyo was taken away, and especially when Gintoki was about to behead Shoyo.
Even now, Gintoki and Shoyo kept their promises to each other. I feel that both of them knew it’s too good to be true and that Shoka Sonjuku wasn’t gonna last forever, and meeting Gintoki was just a moment. But they both kept going no matter what
Now this is why I admire Gintoki so much. He who was faced with the decision of killing the most important person in his life just to keep their promises to each other still kept going even if it meant having everyone resent him, even if it meant living in Loneliness again
They were the other’s Broken half and together they both shined brighter than anyone even with their Dark past behind their backs. Like a Full Moon in the Night Sky, they were so Beautiful everyone was so attracted to them. So Brilliant, they stayed on everyone’s hearts
People Definitely already realized this but I’ve seen no one point it out so why not. AND ALSO THIS IS WHY SAKURAMITSUTSUKI IS TOP 1 OPENING. IT’S JUST TOO PERFECT IM SORRY
