Menjelang akhir periode Edo di dunia Gintama, spesies asing yang ekstra-terestrial kolektif disebut Amanto (天人) turun ke bumi, dan tidak lama setelah itu, diadakan perang yang disebut Perang Joui. Banyak samurai dan Joui patriot yang tergabung dalam laga ini untuk mengusir Amanto. Namun, militer luar biasa yang Amantos ‘mungkin, ditambah dengan lemahnya Bakufu pemerintah, menyebabkan pengajuan lemah lembut dari Keshogunan berkuasa, sehingga memungkinkan Amantos untuk menyerbu bumi dengan mudah. Pemerintah Bakufu menjadi pemerintahan boneka Amantos ‘, dan sejak saat itu, para Amantos mampu angkuh menyusuri jalan-jalan Edo. Di sisi lain, para pemberontak Joui yang berperang melawan Amantos menjadi target operasi pemerintah Bakufu. Sebagai bagian dari kampanye penindasan, larangan membawa pedang di publik dilakukan, dan samurai sampai sekarang gagah berani kehilangan semangat juang mereka.

20 tahun setelah datangnya Amantos, remaja dengan nama Shimura Shinpachi terlihat bekerja di kantin yang jauh bertentangan dengan keinginannya. Dia mewarisi dojo dari mendiang ayahnya namun memiliki pelatihan pedang yang sangat terbatas, sehingga tidak mampu untuk menyadarkan sekolah keterampilan pedang. Meskipun seorang anak muda, ia masih percaya dengan semangat kuno samurai. Pada titik ini, karakter yang luar biasa muncul di hadapannya, karakter yang masih mencerminkan semangat samurai kuno. Shimura Shinpachi memutuskan untuk bekerja bersama Sakata Gintoki yang disebut Yorozuya untuk mempelajari semangat samurai. Tidak lama setelah itu, seorang Amanto dari Yato dengan nama Kagura dan Inugami dalam bentuk anjing besar, diberi nama Sadaharu oleh Kagura, bergabung dengan Yorozura.

Plot[edit]

The story is set in an alternate late-Edo period, where humanity is attacked by aliens called 'Amanto' (天人, 'Sky People'), and the samurai of Japan join the battle against the aliens, but when the shōgun realizes the power of aliens, he betrays the samurai and surrenders to the aliens. The shōgun writes an unequal contract with aliens which allows the aliens to enter the country and places a ban on carrying swords in public. The swords of samurai are taken away so they can no longer resist the aliens. After that, the shogunate becomes a puppet government.

The plot is focused on an eccentric samurai, Gintoki Sakata (a.k.a. Odd Jobs Gin), who helps a teenager named Shinpachi Shimura save his sister Tae from a group of aliens who want to make her part of a brothel. Impressed with Gintoki, Shinpachi becomes his apprentice and works with him as a freelance odd-jobs man in order to pay the monthly rent on Gintoki's combination home and office, as well as to know more about him. The two of them rescue a teenage alien girl named Kagura from a group of Yakuza who wanted to use her superhuman strength to kill people. Kagura joins Shinpachi and Gintoki to work as freelancers and the three become known as 'Yorozuya' (万事屋, 'We do everything' or literally 'The Anything Store').

While doing their job, they encounter the police force Shinsengumi several times, who normally ally with Odd Jobs Gin in their work since the jobs commonly involve dangerous criminals. They eventually meet some of Gintoki's former comrades from the fight against the Amanto's invasion, including the revolutionary Kotaro Katsura who maintains a friendly relationship with them despite his terrorist activities against the bakufu. On the other hand, Shinsuke Takasugi acts as a major antagonist throughout the series, as he wants to destroy the bakufu and sees his former comrades as enemies.

Although the series' story is commonly episodic, there are also a few story arcs which are developed through several chapters.[4] Across several story arcs Takasugi starts gaining allies including Kagura's brother, Kamui, and the elite unit Mimawarigumi to prepare for his large scale coup d'état.

Following the assassination of the ruling shōgun, Shige Shige Tokugawa, the Shinsengumi rebel against the new shōgun Hitotsubashi Nobunobu.

After the Introduction of Utsuro as the shows main villain during the 'Farewell, Shinsengumi' arc, the plot then shifts to Gintoki along with his friends and enemies trying to stop Utsuro from destroying both Earth and the Universe.

Themes and style[edit]

Hideaki Sorachi's main focus in Gin Tama is the use of gags; during the manga's second year of serialization he started to add more drama to the story while still keeping the comedy.[5] Various jokes from the manga are comments regarding clichés from other shōnen series. For example, in the first chapter after Gintoki fights a group of aliens to protect Shinpachi and Tae, Shinpachi complains that he only fought for 'one page' and Gintoki replies, 'Shut up! One page is a long time for a manga artist!' Gintoki's exaggerated desire to read the Weekly Shōnen Jump (which causes him to fight other readers in order to get it) also makes fun of shōnen, since during those parts characters quote them.[6][7] Other types of comic situations are more general, so that the reader must know about Japanese culture to understand them.[8] The humour is described by publications as being 'bizarre' and 'weird'. It is also described as being divided between two categories: 'sci-fi comedy' and a 'samurai comedy' with the former referring to the aliens.[9] It tends to point out 'an irritating foible about modern society' including celebrations days or famous mythical figures.[4] Additionally, there are references to several historical figures with a few characters from the story being based on them.[10] Besides the series' comedy, the aliens' invasion in Japan bring several social issues between them and the humans with the most recurring one being the lack of social equality.[11] As a result, one of the main themes involves society trying to preserve their own way of living rather than fulfilling a dream like in other shōnen series.[12]

Production[edit]

Cover of the first issue of the Weekly Shōnen Jump magazine that featured the manga.

In 2003, Hideaki Sorachi was an up-and-coming manga artist who had already created two one-shots for the Weekly Shōnen Jump magazine.[13] Although he was preparing to write his first serialized series, his editor suggested he create a manga series based on the Shinsengumi, mostly inspired by an upcoming TV-drama about the 1860s troupe as depicted by idol actors. Sorachi attempted to create this series since he admitted to liking the Shinsengumi, but ultimately failed to get anything off the ground. Instead of abandoning the idea completely, he remained focused on the historical Japanese era but began to create his own story, adding in elements of science fiction and fictionalizing many of the figures from the era to create a story more to his own liking.[14] The original title of the series was meant to be 'Yorozuya Gin-san' (万事屋銀さん, lit. 'Odd Jobs Gin-san'), but it did not have any impact on Sorachi. After great debate, he decided to go with the name Gin Tama after discussing it with his family, deciding on a name that sounded close to the edge without being completely off it.[15] Although Sorachi considered the one-shot 'Samuraider' to be very poor, the setting of such one-shot served as the base for Gin Tama such as the addition of alien characters.[16] Sorachi liked the Bakumatsu and Sengoku periods due to how both were eras of change and thus presented the positive and negative points of humanity. The series was then set in an alternate Bakumatsu to give a bigger significance to the characters' bushido as in that time samurais were at the low point of their lives.[12]

The main character of the series was originally meant to be Toshiro Hijikata as Sorachi was a fan of the Shinsengumi, most notably from Hijikata Toshizō (the Shinsengumi who was the base for the one of Gin Tama), after he saw the film Burn! Sword!. When Sorachi could not 'shake off' Hijikata's initial design, he decided not to use him as the lead character, but added him along with the Shinsengumi to the story.[15] The pilot chapter from the series had a different plot to the one from the serialization: Shinpachi already met Gintoki in the story and there were more Shinsengumi to the story such as one based on Harada Sanosuke. As all these new Shinsengumi were older than most of the recurring characters from the series, Sorachi removed them thinking they were not entertaining.[17] When asked by a fan, Sorachi mentioned that most characters from the series are based on real-life Edo citizens while Gintoki's character is roughly based on the folk heroSakata no Kintoki.[10]

When starting serialization the manga was unpopular and was close to being cancelled. Although Sorachi was pleased with the first tankōbon selling all of its copies, he later learned Shueisha was afraid of poor sales which resulted in the minimum printed.[18] In order to increase its popularity, the author introduce new characters, the Shinsengumi, who felt memorable to his assistants.[12] Sorachi had little hope on the manga's popularity, as he noted that people used to tell him the manga would not surpass the number of two tankōbon volumes. However, once the third volume was released, Sorachi found that he did not have 'any fresh material to use.'[19] During the first year of the series, Sorachi believed that the source of the popularity of Gin Tama was partially connected to the Shinsengumi drama. While the drama ran during the first year of the series, when the manga was mostly shorter stories that established the characters and the world, he felt uncomfortable of making things related to the drama. By the second year and beyond, he became more daring in his stories and concepts, creating longer storylines that included more drama while keeping his sense of humor and satirization of modern Japan by way of his fictionalized past.[5] Although Sorachi has already planned the series' ending, he is not sure when the manga is going to reach that point due to the characters requiring development to behave the way he wants.[18]

When working on a chapter of Gintama, Sorachi sometimes has problems finishing the manuscript, leaving his supervisor to take it before he can revise it. He figures out what to write by staying in his room or going for a walk.[20] Although he commented that some of his ideas are 'random,' he focuses on the fact that they are all related to the manga, and when he has problems coming up with ideas, Sorachi is often helped by his editor.[21] Thinking of Gin Tama as a 'non-sense manga,' before writing a chapter, Sorachi decides whether it should be a comedy or a drama. Sorachi defines Gin Tama as a 'science fiction human drama pseudo-historical comedy.'[22]

When Sorachi is illustrating Gin Tama, he usually uses a felt-tip pen, a fountain pen, a brush-tip pen, and a multiliner, but for the major characters he only uses a felt-tip pen and a fountain pen, and does their outlines with a multiliner-0.8.[23]

The manga chapters of Gin Tama are written and illustrated by Hideaki Sorachi. They have been serialized for the manga anthology book Weekly Shōnen Jump from Shueisha since December 8, 2003.[24] Shueisha is also publishing the first chapters of Gin Tama online on their Weekly Shōnen Jump official website.[25]Viz Media licensed Gin Tama for publication in North America. A 55-page preview from the series was first featured in the January 2006 Shonen Jump issue.[26] Viz acquired the license to publish chapters from the series in the Shonen Jump during the San Diego Comic-Con International in 2006.[27] The chapters were serialized in Shonen Jump from January to May 2007 at a rate of one chapter a month.[28][29] In August 2018 it was announced that the manga would end on September 15 in Weekly Shōnen Jump,[30] and later it was announced that the manga would be transferred to Jump Giga.[31][32] It ran in three consecutive issues, starting on December 28, 2018 and finishing on February 22, 2019.[33][34] Initially, It was reported that the series would end in its 77th volume,[35] however, in February 2019, it was announced that the manga will continue in a free Gintama app.[36] The new chapter was published on May 13.[37] The final chapter of the series will be published on June 17, 2019.[38]

Shueisha has been collecting the chapters in tankōbon volumes with the first being published on April 2, 2004.[39] Seventy-two volumes have been released in Japan.[40] In North America tankōbon were published under Viz's 'Shonen Jump Advanced' imprint.[41] The first volume was published on July 3, 2007, while on August 2, 2011 Viz published the twenty-third volume.[42][43] Publication of the series by Viz Media ended with that volume with no reasons given.[44]

The Spanish Glénat–EDT edition had already been stalled with 16 volumes in 2010. In August 2012 EDT's director Joan Navarro claimed the last six volumes sold less than 600 copies, causing about €3,170 in losses each.[45] After EDT had Shueisha's publishing rights withdrawn the following month, Gintama was one of a number of series not picked up by other publishers.

It contains the 2005 and 2008 specials and an audio commentary.[47] On Weekly Shōnen Jump's 34th issue of 2014, it was announced tha the Gin Tama anime will return for a one-episode special for the year's Jump Special Anime Festa tour.[48] The anime special DVD will be bundled with the limited edition of the 58th manga volume to be released on April 3, 2015.[49]

Magister Negi Magi.[143][144] English sales from the manga volumes have also been good with some of them having appeared in Diamond Comic Distributors's Top 300 Graphic Novels.[145][146]

The first Gin Tamalight novel became the top-selling novel from Japan during 2006.[147] The same achievement was made by the third novel during 2008.[148] The anime adaptation has also been featured several times in the Japanese TV ranking,[149][150] with the first two episodes having a rating of 5.6.[151] DVD sales of the series have also been featured in the Japanese anime DVD ranking various times,[152][153] while the third DVD of season 3 ranked ninth in the Japanese Amazon.com Top Ten of best sellers DVDs during 2008.[154] In August 2008, TV Tokyo announced that Gin Tama and Naruto 'contributed to robust sales of overseas rights in the last fiscal year which ended in March.'[155] In a poll from Puff, Gin Tama won in the category 'Best Animation'.[140] The DVD from the Gin Tama OVAs became the top-selling OVA in Japan during 2009, having sold 61,226 units after two weeks of being released.[156] In the Oricon survey '2009's Top-Selling DVDs in Japan', the same DVD ranked at the top of the category 'Animation/Special Effects DVDs' with a total of 76,000 units sold.[157] The CD soundtrack Gintama The Best received the 'Animation Album of the Year award' from the Kinema Junpo's DVD Navigator Japanese magazine.[158]

Critical response to the Gin Tama manga has generally been positive. Carlo Santos from Anime News Network found the manga to be a 'one-of-a-kind comedy' praising the characters' personalities and gags. On the other hand, the artwork was criticized for being 'hard to follow' when there are fast scenes.[8] Jokes regarding clichés from other shōnen series were also positively received by About.com writer Deb Aoki, who, like Santos, found the artwork to be 'the only thing that distracts from the otherwise considerable pleasures of this loveable, goofy manga'.[6] However, characters' designs were praised for its variations including the ones from the aliens appearing in the series by Katherine Dacey from Pop Culture Shock who remarked that 'These characters add visual interest and life to every panel, keeping the reader invested when the stories stall.'[159] Other negative comments regarding the manga have the few number of aliens appearing in the series as well as how some chapters are focused in fights such as Hijikata's fight against Gintoki. Michael Aronson from Manga Life concluded his review of the manga by saying that 'The potential is there, but the execution is struggling' as still he liked the comedy from the story.[160] Comics Village's Alex Hoffman mentioned that Gin Tama 'can't truly be compared to those comics because of one thing: the jokes.' He found the context from the series hilarious and like how there are new jokes in every chapter. Like other reviewers, Hoffman also disliked Sorachi's artwork, but still found the manga to be 'a great comedy, or a great read.'[161] Comic Book Bin writer Leroy Douresseaux found that the large number of characters with different appearances in the series allow the reader to remain entertained with the series as 'at least every few pages or so present some unusual and interesting visual.'[162]

The anime adaptation of Gin Tama has received positive and mixed responses. The humor was noted to be improved after the series' introduction although some jokes were hard to understand because some of them are references to Japanese culture and other series.[163] The notes on the DVD releases were criticized for lacking explanation of cultural jokes.[164] Additionally, the humor's quality was found to be inconsistent within the first episodes due to the depth some bring,[165] to the point that some viewers may abandon the series.[164] The quality from the series was found to improve as the series continues as people would not be intimidated by its large number of episodes.[165] The characters' action were praised due to their knowledge that their tendencies to 'break the fourth wall',[163] while the female characters were found appealing based on their unusual qualities.[165] The series has been noted for its ability to shift between comedy and drama without a loss of quality.[166]

Controversy[edit]

Episode 232 of the anime series had a defamatory depiction of a character that referenced a specific politician, the current Minister for Government Revitalisation Renhō Murata, which resulted in the cancellation of its rerun on AT-X.[167] Series supervisor Shinji Takamatsu explained that TV Tokyo cancelled the rerun on its own. Renhō's representative denied having objected to the episode although a report from the Mainichi Shimbun paper stated the affected party contacted TV Tokyo.[168] When the story arc the episode belonged to was completed, Takamatsu expressed doubts about the arc's release in DVD format.[169]
