"Gintama" is a fantasy action manga from Japan's Weekly Shonen Jump. In Edo, due to the rising power of the alien "Tenshi" who suddenly came from space and the introduction of the sword abolishment order, the path of the samurai has fallen into decline. However, there is one person who still clings to the soul of a samurai... His name is Sakata Gintoki. This sweet-toothed and absurd guy might just be the one to split the corrupt Edo in two...?
