Gintama Discussion

[frej]

Sorachi is breaking the limits of badassness and epicness with arcs like this one.
I'm waiting to see how the anime staff can make it even more epic.
Really Gintama is the only manga that can make you laugh like hell and at the same time amaze you by its epicness and this even after more than 350 chapters.

[tatermoog]

I stopped reading Gintama. Only sporadically found it funny, wasn't invested in the characters, etc.

Read last chapter on a whim.

I have no idea what the context for any of that was, but it was amazing.

[frej]

That's true that the first chapter weren't very good. the manga really started after kagura's father arc so if you stopped before reaching this arc you missed the whole manga.
Because epic chapters like this one aren't rare in Gintama

[Kylor]

I would kind of like to see Gin and friends become a sort of revolutionary crime lord group after this arc. I mean, I know the status quo will be reset somehow, but wouldn't it be such a neat twist if this arc would be a serious game changer? I know I'd be interested.

[!Volpe]

I think the Shogun will kind of reward them for stopping the stupid uncle.
I mean, he was all serious last chapter.

But it wouldn't be a bad idea, Gin teaming up with Zura.

Gintama is a manga that just never fails me.

Ever.

[black-leg jex]

i want to see gin fight the shogun. Hell i just want to see the shogun fight that would be awesome

[Cruithne]

Just finished catching up. Latest chapter was niiiice.

I'm not as into Gintama as I'd like to be. I can see that it's good, but I don't find it that funny since a good portion of the jokes are pop culture references or wordplay that gets lost in translation. Serious arcs like Benizakura are cool, though.

Besides babby Gin sitting in a pile of dead dudes eating something, were there any background chapters that weren't translated (there're about 10 missing in the website I frequent, not counting the recent Elizabeth arc)? I remember missing chapter 165 the first time, and then when I went back to find Takasugi had a big part in it.

Maybe we'll get some more background info this arc, given the amount of people calling Gin "Shiroyasha".

Spoiler:

Splendid as ever.

[Naivette]

Okay, that last picture has convinced me to skip the gap and keep reading the manga so I can find out just what the heck happened XD. Gin-san has never looked so serious!

[maxterdexter]

There's both of his battles on the 4 Devas arc.

The episode of the underground battle ring.

The whole Benizakura arc.

The underground citty arc final fight.

The screwdriver's arc final scene.

Gin has to many great moments.

[asce]

thanks a lot kewl.. the anime is catching up very soon... but i think they skipped some chapters.. ?? ... this weeks episode is super awesome.. :)

[kewl0210]

The anime is ending/going on hiatus again in like 2 weeks, I believe. Also they always skip around. And we're doing the chapters as they come out in Jump, so they can't "catch up".

[kaizokuo12]

Thanks again! You guys are awesome!
Is there any news somewhere about Gintama anime going on hiatus?

[frej]

Thanks Kewl. Great work.
Did anyone notice the hand of Gintoki in this picture?

Spoiler:

[!Volpe]

Thanks Kewl.
And "It is useless of time" is such a epic phrase.

[kewl0210]

Fucking read more things:

Ok, I think I can take a break from this now...

[AtomicFruit]

Awesome chapter.

[kaizokuo12]

Looks like the Yatagarasu won't be a fodder as I thought they would...

Spoiler:

Now, this is interesting, Gintoki's past finally comes to light... I'm guessing after all of this is over, the Yorozuya won't be having their normal lives... I doubt we'll be seeing Katsura here, but he'll probably appear for the arc's aftermath...
