Why you should definitely watch Gintama

Hello guys,



So, I recently finished the first season of Gintama and I am already itching to recommend this anime to all my otaku friends.



I always kept this anime aside because it's not the regular "shonen/shoujo" anime series that I usually watch. I have watched a couple of other comedy anime series like Daily lives of high school boys, Azumanga Daioh, Sket Dance etc. Gintama is DEFINITELY on a different level than these anime series.



Here are a couple of reasons why you should give this anime a shot.



1. It doesn't matter if you are NOT an Otaku: Okay so, there are a couple of anime series even the regular office going chap can enjoy, like Death Note. One or two episode of Gintama and you'll have your daily dose of laughter. There are episodes which refer to other animes (parody) nonetheless, they are downright hilarious. Moreover, the references are usually from the famous anime series like Doraemon or One Piece, Dragon Ball etc. So, there are fewer chances you will miss out on the punch lines.



2. They are Adult-oriented: Gintama is one anime I know which talks about positions, poop, balls, penis very casually. I really like that about Gintama. They are not only funny but also extremely comfortable. Anything can happen in the Gintama world like your dick turning into a screwdriver or a hammer, balls floating around the screen and so on. Sometimes I just wonder what kinda upbringing did Hideki Sorachi have!? Some episodes are just extremely weird, like how did you even come up with this!?



3. The heartwarming episodes: Gintama is not just popular for its gags or profanity, but also its subtle and soothing episodes. I have actually cried after watching many episodes and I have also laughed maniacally over some episodes. Okay, I would like to add one more thing, I love Kagura-chan. Kagura always has these amazingly cute and hearwarming episodes I absolutely love. You guys should tell me your favourite character below.



4. It is highly relatable: MADAO - The life this character leads in the anime is actually a brutal reality. Hasegawa-san is definitely one of the very relatable characters. Besides him, you can actually see how this anime can be a slice of life.



5. The serious arcs are jaw-dropping: Gintama is just a complete package. If you think Gintama is just about how funny it is, you're wrong, pal. The series arcs will take your breath away! I love watching Gintoki in action. The crazy glare and the swordplay is going to make you fall in love with this anime. I love how all the characters fit so well. Yes, I am in love with this anime already and I regret that It is ending soon.





If you haven't already watched Gintama, don't wait any further! Please tell me what you feel about this anime, I would love to know.
