Review of Gintama Season 5
Top 5 Favorite Arcs Yoshiwara in Flames ep 139 - 146 Kintama ep 253 - 256 Beam Sword Style ep 262 - 264 Shogun Assassination ep 300 - 307 Sliver Soul ep 342 - 369 Favorite Episodes: 65, 119, 137, 153, 216 Through 369 Episodes and 3 Films, Gintama is a work of art by Mangaka Hideaki Sorachi. I rate the Gintama series a 9/10. It was such a great series that has really stood the test of time. I watched it during their first break right before the 2015 reboot came out. The characters were funny and memorable, the villains were really cool. The only problem I had was the gagarcs that are still part of the manga take too long sometimes and it takes so long to get to one of the serious arcs. But the gag arcs introduce characters and details that become key aspects later on in the story. The ending was very satisfying and I'm sad to see the series leave after being around for the past 16 years. I will miss the adventures of Odd Jobs Gin and the people of Edo.
