Protector Posted March 3, 2012 Ah yes, welcome to another installment of 'threads dedicated to'. This nonspecific moment in time we talk about Gintama. I discovered magical wonders of Gintama many years ago, and since then I kept forgetting about it because One Piece is awesome. And even if One Piece really is awesome, I don't want to forget Gintama which I keep in a special locker somewhere in my heart. What was the damn combination again? Â Gintama is a silly manga and anime that is full of action and a unique sense of humor. The story takes place in a parallel universe where instead of westerners coming to Japan, aliens came and forced japan to trade with them without any of that closing off from the world stuff. Because of the aliens the world changed in ways that make it look like our world with TV, Internet, video games, and all the modern stuff to make jokes about. The main character of the story is Gintoki Sakata who used to be a samurai before the world changed so dramatically. His actions are unpredictable and you can almost never guess what's going on in his head, but he is good natured and follows his own bushido. I see him as wise and while he is in a way a little weird, he seems like a taoist to me. Â The set up for story arcs seems very weird and comical at first but by the time it end, you kinda learn something... or the author wants to seem smart or something but he just cracks puns... wait... Â ANYWAY Â It's real great and you should check it out. Â Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
