#What is gintama about series

On Jump terms, the series is more closer in kin to series such as 'Dr. Joking aside, Gintama is a throwback to a certain style of series you don't see too often in Jump. On the other hand, if you want a weird comedy with lots of action and drama on the side, loveable but slightly strange characters, cute girls who act odd, bishonen who are violent, loud and love mayonaisse and 'the meaning and purpose of life' (well maybe not that).this series is for you! Nothing wrong with some of those things (though there are some things wrong with others), but Gintama isn't like this. If you want a shonen with some snot-nosed brat with special powers becoming the most powerful being in the universe over time fighting bishonenous enemies and getting the greatest treatment where everyone bows down to him by the end.this shonen isn't for you. What can I say about Gintama.well maybe I'll start off with what not to expect.

#What is gintama about how to

I won't say Gintama's the best manga ever, but I will state that it is a blueprint on how to entertain and enthrall without dragging on. Even with 5 years under it's belt, it works because Sorachi knows just how much slice of life to mix in with the wild and crude sense of humor his world has. Gintama's slowly reaching it's 300'th chapter without showing any signs of slowing down. Really it's because Gintama isn't like that every chapter, that when Sorachi does put it out there that we appreciate it more. Ambitions shouted, swords swinging blood flying and adrenaline pumping. Of course when it's time for the gags to be put aside, Gintama can become just as much of a shounen action fest as any of the manga of it's ilk. Although Gintama's character interactions seem to lean on being sadistic and cruel, can people truly say that they're always kind to each other? Gintama is people being people. They annoy you with their stupidity, and want to hang out when you don't feel like it.but in the end they're always there when you need them. The characters are like a bunch of good friends. (Some of those double takes are hilarious!) Gintama is great not because it's funny, but because it does several different genres WELL.in fact sometimes it does several different genres in one arc! The action scenes are no slouch either, and it has pretty good art. One moment it's a gag manga that'll have you tearing up with laughter, then it's a drama that'll just plain make you tear up. However I think one can go on to say that the Gintama series itself is a freelancing manga. The series itself follows three freelancers (Yorozuya) through their adventures and misadventures. Really? No Gintama reviews? Well As long as no one minds that I'm a bit biased.(as a translator and a fan.)
