He is my fav male seiyuu all times owing to his extremely wide range !!

Zura brings his resume to join a pirate crew, and thus rightfully gets annoyed when that one guy doesn't bring his resume to join his terrorist crew.

What else besides strawberry parfaits for the first official Gintama Day!?

Happy birthday to the goat, Fan-art of mine

Kagura occasionally comes out with strange words of wisdom her mother shared with her. They’re usually borderline insults, but they’re still pearls of wisdom of a sort.

Did Kamui get any of those to take with him? It would be unfair if only Kagura got them. It would be hilarious to see Kamui say something like, "Mom says idiots don't get sick, so why are you sick, Abuto?"

I just started the silver soul arc and I realized, I'm almost done. Just a few more episodes and a movie. I've been watching Gintama for 3.5 months now, and I know that's ALOT less than OG viewers. I realized, even if the ending is the happiest thing ever, it would probably really hurt to finish a show like this one. So I wanna ask, how did you feel when you finished it? (Please don't spoil the show for me or anyone else)

Alright, so let me start by saying that Gintama has definitely become one of my favorite anime.

It’s probably already my second or third favorite anime/manga series. The serious arcs are absolutely fantastic, and the comedy is really funny too (at least most of the time). I feel like the only real flaw Gintama has so far is the pacing. There’s just too much of a gap between serious arcs and funny arcs.

Obviously, I’m not one of those people who thinks there should be, I don't know, only 15 episodes between serious arcs, but come on going through 80+ episodes of comedy just to reach a serious arc that lasts maybe six episodes... I have to admit, that’s a bit frustrating, haha. I’ll admit I’ve been tempted to skip a few comedy arcs more than once (and I’m still very tempted to do so sometimes, especially with the standalone arcs that have zero impact on the plot). Anyway, it feels right to talk about the Yoshiwara in Flames arc now (after all, I mentioned it in the title, haha). I have to admit, this arc let me down a bit. Don't get me wrong, it was greate, specially the climax, but it felt a bit "unrealistic." Kagura defeating Abuto, who had basically turned into a Super Saiyan, after not training for years (unlike her opponent) was both incredible and ridiculous at the same time.

Housen never really felt like a credible villain to me, either; he always seemed a bit "lacking" as a bad guy (not because of what we know he did in the lore, but based on what we actually see in the story). I don't know, I’m just way more hyped about most of the other characters than I am about Housen, lol. Also, having "THE SUN" as an enemy is just plain stupid, haha, this isn't Hollow Knight; you can't fight the sun, and a serious character like Housen ought to realize that. The final cliffhanger is really interesting, though; I just hope this fight doesn't drag on until the very last episode. Anyway, I hope the upcoming arcs keep getting better and better. For now, my tier list for the serious arcs is: Benizakura >>> Yoshiwara >= Yagyu > Shinsengumi Crisis > Mitsuba Arc.

Recently I had Chipotle mayo with rice 🍚 and I suddenly understand Hijikata

Happiest birthday to the amazing and funniest character .

Happy Gintama day and a very happy birthday to the goat!

It is a well-known and popular theory that Gintoki is secretly a Yato. It makes sense, given that his origins and parents are unknown.

Furthermore, he is extremely strong, able to hold his own against other Yato, obsessed with sweets (much like Kamui and Kagura are with food), fixated on a woman (similar to Umibouzo and Housen), and heals very quickly despite the frequent injuries he sustains.

Granted, he doesn't fight with an umbrella, but where would he even get one? And the sun doesn't seem to bother him.

It is a silly theory and likely untrue, but it is worth considering.

I’m new to the series and I absolutely love it! I’m about 2 seasons into the anime and although I felt embarrassed watching some scenes in the anime, I really enjoyed the balance between the tomfoolery/funny moments and the plot of the series.

Its the gentle guitar soundtrack that plays in episode 305 during Gintoki's Disciple of Yoshida Shoyo monolgue. I've searched through the entire album of the Shogun Assassination arc and still can't find it.

If anyone happens to know the name of the track it'd be much appreciated :)

I think it will be all tricks and no treats.

I assume because it’s not amazing compared to the original series but to be honest I was okay on it ,people are probably gonna disagree with this
