Review of Gintama
I first watched the dubbed version of Gintama in my country, back then I thought it was boring and I couldn't really understand what they were saying and the jokes were lame so I dropped it and I think that's why it also didn't became popular in my country. Then in FB I saw some people posting scenes of Gintama and everyone was praising it so I decided to watch it in Japanese dubbed and wow! there really is difference! it's just so amazing. Story: 9/10 The first few episodes were boring. But after 8 episodes it gets better and better. There are so many episodes thatwill make you laugh, the jokes were unique or something that you will not often heard or see. There are also scenes that will make you cry only for it to suddenly change into a funny scene which will make you cry and laugh at the same time. The fighting scenes are also awesome.
Art: 9/10
The art is good. Although there were times when Gintoki looked a little chubby (lol) but still it's good especially during the funny and fighting scenes.
Sound: 9/10
Some opening and ending songs are good but some are just okay. I think the best part of this anime is the voice acting of their voice actors. They all did a really good job making even a slightest joke sound so funny.
Character: 10/10
Gintoki the main lead is not your usual main protagonist. Compared to other protagonist who worked hard for their dream, Gintoki does the opposite. He is lazy and just want to live a care free life while protecting those who he care about. Even though he is lazy there are still moments when you can't help but feel amazed by him,especially on how he sometimes act like a good father.
Kagura: Again is not your normal heroine. While most heroine are being paired up by the main protagonist,acting pretty,sexy and strong, Kagura is the opposite. She is almost the mini version of Gintoki.
Overall I will rate it 9/10
I think for you to be able to understand it really well (especially the jokes) then you have to watch it in Japanese Dubbed.
