That was probably the funniest thing I've ever read. Every part was hilarious, from beginning to end. I'm not sure how Gintama will ever top that arc

Ok read it, it was fucking amazing never thought i would laogh so much, but now where i've read vol 39 i recognize something.
Why the fuck did they skipped these chapters in the anime, why god why???

The anime always shifts stories about from where they were in the manga.
Nothing has been skipped. -

Nothing has been skipped.I think the anime will probably push the Gintoki-harem arc for new year to keep it's new year theme…
And in volume 40, there's a winter arc, so we'll probably get that before the harem arc.I love how Sorachi manage to use the Shichibukai thing as plot device so that Gin-san has to date them all at the same day!
The argument itself is funny!! And then the ending, that really comes out as the most shocking thing about the whole arc!!(other than the fact that Gin-san wakes up besides Otose!) -
Could someone please tell me where I can find the earlier chapters of Gintama? I was reading on Mangareader, but a lot of chapters are missing.

A great deal of the chapters are still untranslated, however the translator Kewl0210 is currently filling that gap.
I am currently waiting till he's finished as well since i don't want to skip the gap.
-
I've been planning to go back and do earlier volumes, the ones from 32-35, when we finish these.
Really, even though a lot of other ones got scanlated, the translations have major errors in them. So I dunno, there might be a lot to do. For now we're focusing on catching up to the current chapters though. Then doing earlier chapters would be a long-term kind of project. -
Thanks anyway, and keep up with the good work ^^
-
Gintama is seriously in the top 5, if not top 3, currently running Jump series.
When I can read it.
I keep on forgetting it exists, because it isn't in my "weekly updates" mental folder. but when I see new chapters… goddamn. good shit.
-
I seriously find it weird how most people have never even heard of Gintama when it's among the top 5 shonen jump manga. -.-;

Try mangahere, it has chapters that was deleted on other manga sites. Most of the missing chapters are from Viz scans, so they got deleted…
I'm guessing mangahere isn't popular enough to warrant such attention lol.I seriously find it weird how most people have never even heard of Gintama when it's among the top 5 shonen jump manga. -.-;
Well, it's my 2nd favourite manga in JUMP, and is my favourite comedy manga!
The large number of missing chapters seems to make people put hold from reading this manga though. -
If Gintama was popular enough to have weekly scanlators….
And thanks, I'll try there. -
Luckily, it seems that all the attention that Gintama has been getting means that there is a chance we'll get regular chapters.
-
Well, it's not like I'm not trying. I've been translation checking and editing like 4-5 chapters a week. On top of scanning it and organizing a group to get people to typset it and clean it so we can catch up to the current chapters. But there's a massive amount of text and it takes a very long time to do.
-
I can't image how difficult it is to translate Gintama.
With the amount of wordplay, cultural references and general nonsensical stuff.
It must be a nightmare. -
Truth, I'm very thankful of the scanlator's dedication to keeping Gintama just as punny as usual.
Just to continue the discussion, can anyone imagine Gintama ending? -
Gintama is one of those series that can really go on forever like Kochikame.
-
Yeah, I don't think it'll end even if the main villain got defeated.
-
I think it will end when Takasugi gets defeated.
But I don't think this will happen soon. -
I've got the feeling that Gintoki's yet-to-be-seen master will be the final villain.Also, i really miss Katsura.
-

lol if that really happen. Also, the idiot Zura will be appearing in Shogun's ski trip arc in volume 40, and volume 41 cover the Elizabeth arc, so he'll have much screen time until then. (more like, when is Sakamoto gonna show up again?!:ninja:)
-
Sakamoto is one of the my favorite characters.
Too bad that the last time he appeard was during the 2nd or 3rd season of the anime.At least, he is going to be on the Elizabeth arc.:ninja:

Yeah. I always wondered why Sakamoto was always featured in the openings and endings even though he almost never actually appeared in the series. I don't know, maybe the anime staff just likes him for some reason. I know he did fairly well in the popularity polls despite being really a minor character when you get right down to it. I wasn't crazy about him, but I had nothing against him either. Maybe if we spent more time with him I would have liked him more.
-
The reason that Sakamoto is in the OP/ED a lot of the time probably has to do with the fact that he, Gintoki, Katsura, and Takasugi are the 'main 4' of the war when they were fighting the Amanto. Though Gintoki might not admit it, those bonds are really important to him (especially since he decided to END Takasugi's life and plan should he ever attempt it).

Well, either that or there's just the fact that he lived in space (though, Umibouzu still has more screen time than Sakamoto lol). Last time he appeared, it's pretty much a cameo.
!
and that's pretty much the screen time they got!BTW, The new episode is Gintama X Sket Dance crossover. It was really great! They added lots of extras and manage to fill one chapter for one episode.
Gintama's the only anime that I wouldn't mind having one chapter per episode. Props to the anime staff for rocking the episode! -
That was pretty good. The Gintama x Sket Dance crossover ripped off the Toriko x One Piece crossover.
It actually wasn't an adaptation to the manga crossover, but it was still really good. -
So, what do you guys think of opening 10?
It's not the best opening in Gintama, but I think it's very nice.
-
The new opening, is there a clue as to whats going to happen in the new arc? Hopefully
I don't know why its not known enough, its got comedy and action and every thing some one should be looking for in an manga. I missed a couple of chapters, has a new arc started up yet? New villain? Thanks.
-
I love the openings that make Gintama seen a totally serious series.
-
I love the openings that make Gintama seen a totally serious series.
And there's actually no totally serious arc past 4 devas arc lol. They made the Gintoki's harem seems like something serious lol. ( though, Madao wasn't there. It'd be awkward if he was there, but it'd be good for laugh! )
The opening foreshadow lots of stuff though.! Fumiko from Elizabeth arc was there, so they might actually animated that arc earlier than expected.
Also, manga spoiler…..
the new manga chapter seems like a Slumdog Millionaire parody.:ninja: -
The new opening is great though the previous one fits gintama better. (I really miss the opening and ending made by Does they were definitely the best anime songs i ever heard).
Madao wasn't there.
He was there u can see him smoking a broken cigarette before the girls show up even if it's very fast. The one that surprised me by not being in the opening nor the ending for the first time is Elizabeth. Wonder how did they forgot such an important character…
-
There's Sadaharu too…
-
I really, really want to get into Gintama, but I've started and stopped about seven times. I just don't get half of the gags that they do, or at least don't find them especially funny. And this is coming from a huge Sket Dance fan. Does the manga get a lot better at some point (I'm currently around 70 chapters in)?

Well, most of gintama's gags are not too hard too understand since they like using dirty ones but i agree that some of them are hard to get for non japenese people. This kind of fun and gags remind me of the simpsons using child and adult gags in the same time and refering to real events and persons. But it also has some of the few and most epic arcs i ever saw in manga. The benizakura arc was one of them but i only noticed its epicness when i watched it in the anime so if u find the manga boring or hard to undersatand u should try the anime. Believe me it's very special nothing like the anime u're used to see

What frej said.
I actually had the same problem when I first start this series. Most of the jokes under 100 chapter marks are a bit underwhelming. I started to find this series really funny past chapter 101 when I just randomly picked a chapter to read. The Benizakura arc is around chapter 90, so it's not that too far out from where you are now. Or you can just watch the first movie which is basically the same thing with more awesome fighting animation and some few extra gags.

Okay, well now we're gonna try this:
http://hiwamatanoboru.com/2011/10/10/gintama-372-release/
Hope it works out ok. -

Hope it works out ok.Wow THANKS! I'm all ok if we're gonna have weekly release from now on!
And it'll work out since this is Gintama we're talking about.! lol, from now on, this series will be called Kintama! Even though Gintoki have been hogging the spotlight, this arc seems like it'll still center around him lol. And Kin-san looks good with straight hair!
-
Well, by "work out" I meant "I hope we don't end up falling behind". Trying to both catch up and doing the current chapters is a lot to do per week. But the system I have setup with working on the back chapters has been working pretty well, and benii said he's okay with cleaning it. And we have the raws, so we're gonna go ahead with doing both.

I really wish I could bring you to the "PATRIOT FACTORY", it will explain everything that boggles your mind.
Sigh…Nobody missed the true star of the show.
-
Just read the Benizakura arc, and it was appropriately epic. I'll keep plugging along and see what happens.
-
No, I hate prince hata, I hope that he gets shreded in a giant blender and we get purple smothies.
Kewl, good luck in the new project, it was a nice monday surprise.

Tatermoog if u liked the manga version of this arc u'll like even more the anime and movie version. Believe me it's really great especially with DOES music especially made for the arcs where Takasugi appears. Keep plugging there's a lot more fun to come.
@kewl0210:Okay, well now we're gonna try this:
http://hiwamatanoboru.com/2011/10/10/gintama-372-release/
Hope it works out ok.YAY thanks i've been waiting for that for so long!
But i'll wait a lille more before reading it, the gap is too big between the last chapter i read and this one. I want to read them in the the right order so i'm sure i don't spoil myself or miss something. -
I took a peek at that chapter…........I died.
-
I didn't realize when the red haired girl who's name's evade me in the opening, the background of that image is.. a Renhou Face
-
Just watched the new episode and it was too funny like always. All these reference killed me. We're used to Tetris, Pinko (though sorachi only used pinko once back at the beginning of the serie if i remember well) and Dragon Quest parodies but i think it's the first time they use Street Fighter and Ashita no Joe references.
Gintoki always impress me with his wisdom in love but that make me wonder how old he might be… -

But the Street Fighter and Ashita no Joe reference have been used before… remember on the barbershop chapter, when Kondo ask for image change, he wants to become from E.Honda to Guile... And the Ashita no Joe was from the Otsu-chan fan club battle arc, during the Yu-Gi-Oh like card battle.As for the new chapter, I think it's ok to read now, it's the start of a new arc (or is it series?:ninja:) and I do hope kewl's group to at least manage to keep it until the end of it. I'm really thankful for their hard word to bring us this wall-o-text series to read!
-
Great job Kewl (and whoever helps you).
I wish good luck to you guys (;I can't wait to get to the weekly chapters

Ah right, now i remember.
I read the new chapter and i can say that it was so far the most annoying chapter i ever read though it was still funny (especially when he compared kintoki to a supernova). I hate kinsan but i admit that he's doing pretty well for a fake, much better than the fake strawhats. -
So now there's this.
http://hiwamatanoboru.com/2011/10/14/gintama-373-release/We're getting lucky with these first couple weekly chapters being waaay less wordy than normal for Gintama.
It'll give me more time to work on the backup chapters. -
Thanks Kewl!
That was early
