Gintama arc list movie#

The climax/final fight (film-original) was the only scene I hated - without spoiling anything, it felt very forced and pointless. For fans curious about any scene changes or additions, there are quite a few but they're mostly well done so they shouldn't bother you. Editing/CGI is sometimes cringey but can be easily ignored. The action is a mixed bag - sometimes entertaining, other times rather basic. The serious side of the story is nothing special but still enjoyable. over-the-top slapstick, broken fourth walls, shameless body humour (including Japan's beloved idol Kanna Hashimoto picking her nose and vomiting, just to give you an idea), and shout-outs/parodies galore - some so blatant you will crack up.

The movie captures the series' famous wacky sense of humour very well eg. If you're not familiar with the series then you may have a hard time following the story - the movie's main plot aka the Beninzakura arc is interesting enough but can't really be appreciated nor understood by viewers who've only known the characters and setting for like 15 minutes (with a lot of context cut out). It's not a great way to introduce someone to the wonderful bizarre world that is Gintama - the setting and protagonists are introduced rather shortly and then we jump right into the story. I'll try to take new viewers into account even though I'm convinced like 95% of the people checking the movie out are fans haha.ДЇor sure, this is a movie intended for fans rather than newcomers (even the Yorozuya lampshade it in typical Gintama-style). Excuse my word vomit as I attempt to review this. Rewatch Value 6.5 The movie came to my city recently so as a big fan of the series I had to see it! I'm glad I did.
