If this anime had a story or plot, it will go something like this: Gintama is about Gin who runs Yorozuya, a small and unknown business where he do odd jobs for other people for money. It even makes fun of the creator of Gintama. That was one thing that was interesting and entertaining. What I mean is that it makes fun of other animes, famous people and even the audience watching the anime. What I enjoyed most about this anime is that it’s not afraid to take risks. Each episode contains a lot of absurdity, randomness, and comedy. I remember watching an episode about out three main characters, which I will get to in a second, fighting each other in order to get the last crab leg. This also means that most episodes are pretty ridiculous in story and really random. It catches my attention and I’m not entirely bored since each episode is new and has a conclusion. To me, this concept is different and very eye-catching. Each episode is different from the last episode and contains new material and a new story. While in Gintama, it doesn’t have a certain goal or story that keeps the story moving along. Gintama doesn’t have a “universal” story, plot or goal like most animes do. For example, if we look at Naruto, it contains a protagonist who has a goal, and because of that goal, it helps keep the story moving along.
I see Gintama as an anime that contains a lot of arcs and stories that do not really relate to one another, unless it’s an arc. It’s hard to explain what Gintama is really about. Fortunately, I kept at it and as I kept watching Gintama and got to know all the characters and their personalities, I began to enjoy each episode. But since I’m someone who is not from Japan and knew nothing about Japan, I was having difficulties understanding. I think if you know enough about Japan and the pop culture and the famous people in Japan, you might be able to understand the jokes. At first, it was pretty boring and I couldn’t keep up with any of the jokes they told. I dived into this anime blind and open-minded. When I first started Gintama, I had no idea what this anime was about. I honestly have to say that it is one of the best, if not the best, anime I’ve seen so far. Gintama is a one-of-a-kind anime that always made me laugh and was very enjoyable.
This is my opinion/thoughts about Gintama and will contain spoilers!.
