[Gintama] So, were you on the side of working hard on the event preparations or something?

“`plaintext Even if I hide their name, won’t it be obvious? “Those who are putting in a lot of effort for the cultural festival, playing in a band and feeling youth” That guy was badmouthing from the corner of the classroom. The way he laughed, his eyes were said to be the color of tobacco stains. What kind of story is this? That assistant later went on to draw manga about putting in effort for the cultural festival and playing in a band, while the gorilla continued to create comics like a late-night radio show filled with badmouthing. I mean, they’ve already called him a gorilla. “`

1: Japan Otaku Reviews

I worked hard, even though I took a day off on the event day.

2: Japan Otaku Reviews

I was working hard because I wanted to finish quickly and go home.

3: Japan Otaku Reviews

I won’t speak ill, but I also didn’t have any motivation.

Depending on how you look at it, I think it’s the worst pattern.

4: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

Our high school didn’t have any special events.

6: Japan Otaku Reviews

Since you said you are going to create a giant maze in class, I drew up a blueprint.

7: Japan Otaku Reviews

After I finished my part at the cultural festival, I had nothing to do for the remaining time and just went home.

8: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx9

I ran away because it was too troublesome, so I’m worse than a gorilla.

9: Japan Otaku Reviews

I went bankrupt because of COVID.

10: Japan Otaku Reviews

I was engrossed in TCG in an empty classroom.

11: Japan Otaku Reviews

Well, if I try a little hard, I ended up having a slightly good vibe with a girl.

13: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx11

I’ll do my best.

It’s fun.

14: Japan Otaku Reviews

Most of the girls around me were terrible.

15: Japan Otaku Reviews

I used to be an introvert, so when I really tried my best, I felt a heavy atmosphere like “ew… so gross…” and it got me down.

17: Japan Otaku Reviews

I skipped on that day.

18: Japan Otaku Reviews

The people here will prepare, but they might not show up on the day or could be holed up in the bathroom.

19: Japan Otaku Reviews

I worked hard on the club activity’s presentation and succeeded, but…

I feel a little guilty for neglecting the class.

20: Japan Otaku Reviews

Since I could draw, I was in charge of the design for the cheering flags for the sports festival.

21: Japan Otaku Reviews

I was suddenly cast as a monkey on that day and spent the whole day going “Uukiki!”

It was super fun, but I caught a cold because I was half-naked.

22: Japan Otaku Reviews

The cultural festival was like hell because the whole class was so indifferent.

23: Japan Otaku Reviews

I did my best.

I stayed behind, but I stumbled upon a scene where a girl who should have gone home an hour earlier was getting cozy with her boyfriend, and it felt ridiculous.

But I did my best until the end.

24: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

>>23

Great!

25: Japan Otaku Reviews

It was a side errand, but…

It was genuinely fun to work together and have a lively time even until a later hour than usual.

26: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

Since I was the only one who could draw, I was exempted from everything else in exchange for designing all the signs.

27: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx3

School events are sadly more enjoyable the harder you try.

Cultural festivals are the epitome of fun, like coming to school during summer break and eating ice cream with the girls in the class while preparing and having a great time, it’s still a joyful memory.

28: Japan Otaku Reviews

I left school and went to see the ocean.

29: Japan Otaku Reviews

Club activities in the morning.

Having lunch and preparing for the cultural festival in the afternoon.

I wasted my summer vacation and ended up taking a gap year, but it wasn’t such a bad memory.

30: Japan Otaku Reviews

Since there was no such guy in the corner of this type of classroom, I think this only exists in anime and manga where you line up for lunch on the rooftop.

There was a battle for buying lunch.

31: Japan Otaku Reviews

I remember that those who were good at drawing or could play the piano were evenly distributed among the classes for school events.

32: Japan Otaku Reviews

I went out under the pretense of grocery shopping and ended up playing.

33: Japan Otaku Reviews

I had social skills until high school, so I enjoyed it.

34: Japan Otaku Reviews

I had a high fever of 38 degrees for three consecutive years during the high school cultural festival, but I had a lot of fun.

35: Japan Otaku Reviews

I was really busy since I was in the student council.

36: Japan Otaku Reviews

I received the Grand Prize for building a Japanese castle about 1 meter tall.

When we formed a team with only the top students in math, it became quite precise.

37: Japan Otaku Reviews

It was almost like a gorilla.

38: Japan Otaku Reviews

I don’t even remember if there was a cultural festival or not.

I remember the sports festival, though.

39: Japan Otaku Reviews

The haunted house is popular, but there is a limit set for the whole school on which classes can run a haunted house. As expected, my class also wanted to do a haunted house, but I presented the attraction I wanted to do in front of the class, showed the cost analysis, and convinced them.

41: Japan Otaku Reviews

I mainly helped with the club activities, but when it came to the cultural festival, I was so busy with the class’s presentation that I didn’t do anything for the club activities.

43: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

Since everyone in the class was contrary, I went all out in preparation and during the actual event as a counter to the trend of not putting in effort.

We practiced for the choir competition, properly held the sports festival, and waved our penlights on stage.

48: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>43

The performance was serious, but I was envious because I had no involvement in the stage aspect.

44: Japan Otaku Reviews

I worked really hard selling fried chicken, and as a result, I went to university.

45: Japan Otaku Reviews

Although it was decided by majority vote to create the safest giant painting,

I didn’t submit more than half of the design proposals by the deadline, and I didn’t prepare the tools either, among other things.

In the end, what was created was a blackboard-sized painting.

The other student’s remark, “So lame!” hit me hard and it was hell.

46: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

When I really went all out with the haunted house and brought in speakers to create atmosphere, there was a moment when a child waiting in the hallway started crying because they were scared, which was pitiful, but I also felt a sense of accomplishment.

47: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

I drew the thread image, and for the cultural festival, the regular characters will have a story where their comedy routine flops.

Actually, there were students who skipped school because the main character’s class project was canceled due to a controversy.

52: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>47

Now that you mention it, that’s really terrible…

49: Japan Otaku Reviews

Because I was in the student council, I arranged everything for the after-party and such.

I helped with both the club activities and the class presentation, and on the side, I created the student council’s club magazine.

50: Japan Otaku Reviews

I did some stand-up comedy and got a bit of a laugh.

51: Japan Otaku Reviews

When we were doing something in class, we did it properly.

When there was nothing to do, I would just lounge around in the classroom.

53: Japan Otaku Reviews

I was just waiting for time to pass in a cold and damp place, escaping everything during the preparation and on the day itself.

54: Japan Otaku Reviews

I wrote the script for the play we will perform in class.

I won an award for my grade, but the one who got thrown in the air was the lead, and I wasn’t even called.

55: Japan Otaku Reviews

The boys organized a whack-a-mole event where someone played the role of the mole, and I was happy that it turned out to be more successful than expected and made a profit.

56: Japan Otaku Reviews

I had poor grades and had to take remedial classes → I was hit with a deadly combo of being marked absent because the cultural festival is considered a credit as well.

57: Japan Otaku Reviews

I was really enthusiastic and obsessed with that kind of event, and it became annoying to others.

58: Japan Otaku Reviews

In Sket Dance, they properly depicted a fun cultural festival…

59: Japan Otaku Reviews

Because the project I wanted to present at the school festival lost the vote and didn’t get approved.

I lost my motivation and hardly helped.

60: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

It’s a rare case that only happens to someone who is really useless, as groups can form among those who don’t take preparation seriously.

61: Japan Otaku Reviews

During my first and second year of high school, I was really enthusiastic, but when I was told to do events in my third year, I was too focused on college entrance exams, so I took the opportunity to study in an empty classroom.

62: Japan Otaku Reviews

I have no memory.

63: Japan Otaku Reviews

I used to enjoy things normally, but when the class T-shirts were handed out, I really thought, “Wow, this kind of thing actually exists…”

64: Japan Otaku Reviews

Are you talking about a manga like SKET DANCE?

65: Japan Otaku Reviews

High school was just okay, but I really worked hard in university.

66: Japan Otaku Reviews

I said I would do the work, but I was told there’s none, so it’s fine.

I came back.

67: Japan Otaku Reviews

Basically, since participation was voluntary, the sports festival turned into a chaotic event where all grades randomly participated in the tug-of-war.

68: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>67

That sounds fun in its own way.

69: Japan Otaku Reviews

I won’t go to the center or anything like that.

I didn’t particularly slack off or mock those who were trying hard.

70: Japan Otaku Reviews

I worked really hard on the preparation.

The entire thing was taken by the first team members who only worked that day.

I was frustrated, so I was slacking off at the arcade.

71: Japan Otaku Reviews

Because I was a contrarian, I was more enthusiastic during the years when the whole class lacked motivation.

72: Japan Otaku Reviews

I was working hard on both the class performance and the committee duties.

73: Japan Otaku Reviews

Since there were hardly any events like this at school, I still wonder if they really exist; the only thing was the sports day in elementary school at most…

74: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>73

What kind of school is it…?

75: Japan Otaku Reviews

I worked hard on the class presentation, but for everything else, I just watched.

76: Japan Otaku Reviews

After putting in an outrageous amount of effort into preparation, I ended up standing out too much in the areas I was in charge of, so I decided to approach it more moderately.

77: Japan Otaku Reviews

I just made and sold shaved ice with the ice shaver I had at home, so there was no preparation at all.

78: Japan Otaku Reviews

I was watching and laughing as the haunted house in the neighboring class, which I thought would definitely cause trouble, was indeed causing trouble.

79: Japan Otaku Reviews

Since there were no cultural festivals in both middle and high school, I really don’t know what kind of event it is.

80: Japan Otaku Reviews

As expected, it’s full of 5th army episodes…

82: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>80

Isn’t it the other way around?

I’m surprised to see some responses from those who were just enjoying normally.

87: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>82

Because I can only see what I want to see.

81: Japan Otaku Reviews

Our high school doesn’t have a culture festival, but we had an event with only a mock store.

It was really busy because a lot of customers came, but it was fun.

83: Japan Otaku Reviews

I did many things, but the most fun was when I joined the executive committee.

84: Japan Otaku Reviews

Does that mean that without the culture festival, we should focus more on studying?

89: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>84

It’s the kind of thing that’s common in so-called “prestigious schools”…

85: Japan Otaku Reviews

It was a culture festival where I did not participate at all and just played mahjong in the club room.

86: Japan Otaku Reviews

Well, it really depends on the atmosphere of the class when it comes to things like this.

88: Japan Otaku Reviews

No matter what, when we decided to do this, I remember everyone working hard without slacking off.

I wonder if it’s because it was an all-boys school.

90: Japan Otaku Reviews

The mysterious prejudice that otaku girls must be good at drawing because they are otaku, and painting signs with them has become quite a memorable experience.

98: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>90

Awesome! It looks like erotic doujinshi from FANZA!

91: Japan Otaku Reviews

The preparation phase was probably the most fun.

Since I had club duties during the event, I couldn’t really look around much.

92: Japan Otaku Reviews

When I was in high school, there were about 100 members in the cultural festival executive committee, and we were having fun with the festival atmosphere while being on the organizing side.

93: Japan Otaku Reviews

I didn’t skip work or gossip behind anyone’s back, but whenever I got involved, there was a certain atmosphere, and basically, I was just a gopher…

94: Japan Otaku Reviews

You suddenly disappeared.

95: Japan Otaku Reviews

It’s called a so-called “advancing school,” but since we had a cultural festival, it’s likely that a really strict advancing school wouldn’t have one.

99: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>95

I graduated from a top-ranking high school in the country, but it was just ordinary…

96: Japan Otaku Reviews

I wasn’t in the art club and couldn’t draw, but I was ridiculously favored by the art teacher, so I was made to help with the exhibition on the day.

I was looked at with faces that seemed to say, “Who is this person?” by the art club members.

97: Japan Otaku Reviews

I was asked by the student council to paint a sign to put by the gate.

I drew alone in an empty classroom after school, so there was no fun and laughter.

100: Japan Otaku Reviews

I was entrusted with support flags because I was marketed as a character good at drawing.

Looking back now, there were several people who were actually better than me.

101: Japan Otaku Reviews

Serious schools generally have proper cultural festivals.

The lack of a cultural festival is because it’s a school that gathers people who couldn’t get into that prestigious school and tries to tackle studying with sheer volume.

102: Japan Otaku Reviews

I left without preparation, but it wasn’t noticed that I was gone.

103: Japan Otaku Reviews

I feel like in serious prep schools, there were quite a few people who enjoyed that kind of thing while also going to good universities.

104: Japan Otaku Reviews

We had a cultural festival and a sports festival, but we didn’t have a shoe cabinet at our school.

By the way, did the school have a shoe locker?

I never had it in junior high or high school.

108: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>104

I hear that some schools in a certain prefecture or city don’t use indoor shoes, so they don’t have shoe lockers.

115: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>104

Although it was small, I changed shoes in front of the classroom locker during middle and high school.

105: Japan Otaku Reviews

I heard that the neighboring high school has a lot of restrictions for their cultural festival, which makes it boring.

110: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>105

We also had a noisy food-related event where we did something trivial like balloon fishing…

106: Japan Otaku Reviews

I skipped the class presentation, but I really worked hard on the club presentation.

107: Japan Otaku Reviews

It’s a so-called prestigious school, but they had a cultural festival like any other.

Isn’t it rare not to do it?

109: Japan Otaku Reviews

I prepared hard until the day, but I had no friends that day, so I ended up wasting time in the library.

111: Japan Otaku Reviews

The fact that it’s present in both self-proclaimed and prestigious schools means that it doesn’t exist in some sort of special school.

112: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

That is really a good event where one can become aware of the first, second, and third teams.

120: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>112

Rather, it seems I can make more proposals than I thought… and I realized that the caste I had assumed actually didn’t exist.

113: Japan Otaku Reviews

Gorillas can say it, right?

114: Japan Otaku Reviews

Since I work as the scare actor in a haunted house, preparation has been easy for me.

116: Japan Otaku Reviews

Every time I see it, the second panel’s servile and cynical expression is exceptionally brilliant.

117: Japan Otaku Reviews

I couldn’t work on the class presentation because of the club’s exhibition preparations.

118: Japan Otaku Reviews

As a result of my efforts, I ended up fracturing my leg.

119: Japan Otaku Reviews

These things are fun if you’re in the core group, but if not, they are really boring.

Rather than the nature of humanity, it changes depending on the year.

124: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>119

Even just playing with my usual friends at the edge is pretty fun, but not really.

121: Japan Otaku Reviews

I have memories of properly running a store during the years we did it in class, but during the years when there was no work, I slacked off in the club room and played games, which got me in trouble.

122: Japan Otaku Reviews

Haunted houses, maid cafés, and manga are all classics.

The former is one thing, but does the latter even exist…?

123: Japan Otaku Reviews

I feel like there wasn’t any kind of caste system because it was a complete rural area.

It’s likely that I was just insensitive.
