Which arc did you finish? In fact, what episode you're in?

Gintama spoiler

So I'm just curious. Why did you start Gintama, and when exactly did you realize what great of a series it is (or what moment made you reconsider everything of what you thought Gintama was up till now)?

I'm not gonna lie: It's extremely hard to persuade peope to watch Gintama, and more to make them stick with it through to the end.

You think it's encouraging for someone to hear that the first serious arc won't start until episode 57 or so and takes 50 episodes just to build up?

EDIT: Gintama is underrated. It deserves way more attention. But it will never get a dub (cause it's impossible).

Truth be told, I started watching by two reasons:

 

- The hype of season 3 was going out of control in Japan. Then all the sudden, people here started to take note and pretty much said, "What the hell were we doing for 15 years?" So it's hard to ignore.

- I needed an anime to watch and I said to myself, "Man, I got to organize my page. Hm, I can watch an anime that can take my whole Summer. I can always watch smaller ones very quick. Gintama....Yeah, let's go with this one."

 

Well, I wrote my impression on Gintama. I probably find it and link it here for you to read. As I explained before, there's two different set of comedy approach: one just for the heck of it, no remorse, and the other one is to make you laugh, yet give you a good feel moment. This is the latter. As for hard to convince people to watch the series, hey, if you can persuade people to watch One Piece, you'll be fine. If can't, well, it is a bit difficult but if you fall under the gag, then you got your gold. If you ask me, a good series occurs when it takes you a while to get hooked on. I don't know, but that's how I feel with One Piece, Gintama, and Tokyo Ghoul. If you do a lot in the beginning, the latter would be seen as "disappointing" like Bleach and Naruto. Fairy Tail almost got that but I admit the stuff now going on is pretty good. That one is a different case but my point still stand. I will explain more tomorrow.

It's a wishful thinking. One day though. HxH went through it. Let's hope for that one. It needs an appropriate adaptation.

I see. Thank you.
Still a little off topic a while. If nrt gets another adaptation later, do you think the new adaptation might change the ending?

Well, it has ended. No more Gintama. Season 2 1/2 has ended. If only there was a season 3. I am so sad that we won't know if they will make season 3. Good series has to end. Now I am sad. We can only pray for season 3. I know I will be...

Btw, if you wanna watch the second movie (which technically at this point you should since that is when it came out), here's the link :D

http://animeonlinetv...nare-episode-1/

It's a good movie, just saying.

Opening 13 is so damn awesome that it's actually surreal. I think because Gintama has this style that has been known since the beginning. This season 2 1/2 or Overdrive was the most serious season of them all, but that's because it's short. But man, it left me a great impression for what's to come soon for me. Just brilliant.
