Gintama' (2015) Episode 40

200-201 (Santa Arc. This was where Gintama first stopped airing, so these were the final episodes of the series for the time being. Pretty funny episodes, but skippable. A temporary goodbye from the cast)

249-252 (Gintama was ending its airing yet again in Japan, so these episodes are all hilarious but skippable. 252 is about how the anime is ending yet again and the main cast apologizing to the audience)

(Ikkoku Keisei, or Courtesan Of A Nation Arc) 257-261. THIS. ARC. THIS. ARC. The biggest arc in terms of scale in the entire first 265 episodes of Gintama that remains of the best arcs to this day. All I can say is, be prepared to feel amazed. New villains, revelations, plotlines, and so much more will be revealed. One of my personal favorite arcs of all time.

How the show balances comedy and action and is able to tell a well-crafted story with virtually no plot holes is 5 episodes wheras other shounen struggle to do the same in 50 episodes (like Bleach and Naruto. I mean no offense. Those are two of my absolute favorites

till episode 300 gintamma was 80% funny 20% serious , from the start of 300th episode its a whole new anime now coz you are attached to all the characters & think that no one dies bam there is a emaotional death & revenge this anime is an emotional journey

Nonetheless, Gintama does indeed have filler episodes. Surprisingly, very little of the anime series is filler. Some people say to avoid the first two episodes, as they are not manga canon. However, they do give a good idea of what sort of series this is. 041b061a72
