| From an all super serious moment, things suddenly could turn full on comedic without making it feel too out of place, more like part of whom the characters were | A manga that is so unique that it went against so many things with the constant change in the industry and audience |
|---|---|
| i know their friendship is good and whatever but I honestly wanted gintoki and kagura and shinpachi | The series was nominated for Best Manga under the comedy category in 2008 at the Society for the Promotion of Japanese Animation |

1| the ending was a disappointment, but perhaps i didn't appreciate it enough | but it's not super special or artsy or anything, so i'm not giving it full marks |

| overall: sum divided by 4 Overall 9 Story 9 Art 10 Character 10 Enjoyment 10 Making a good manga that lasts long is tough, we've all read some manga that were so good yet end up being axed because they didn't get enough attention, we also know about lots of manga that are still popular and becoming even more successful because the author decided to follow what was popular and got rid of his ideas that made that manga stand out in the first place, there are some that ride on the popular trending genres and rarely do you find one that takes you to a whole new world with genuinely good characters, I think all this shows you how good Gintama is | There is no series perfect in every aspect in every moment, and Gintama is no exception |
very biased but enjoyment is subjective :p but remember that the side characters are actually good! What is also great about gintama is the great great effort put into the characters, there is not a single character apart from Tsuu that I hated and even she was made to be that annoying idol character.
