The Gintama TV anime aired from 2006 to 2018 for four seasons. In addition to the TV series, the series has inspired a few anime films, including 2021’s Gintama THE FINAL and the recent Gintama on Theater 2D films which are theatrical re-edits of previously adapted arcs. An anime adaptation of the 3-nen Z-gumi Ginpachi-sensei spin-off was released in October 2025.
Gintama is based on Sorachi’s manga series, which was serialized in Shueisha’s Weekly Shonen Jump from December 8, 2003 to September 15, 2018. It was transferred to Jump Giga from December 28, 2018 to February 22, 2019 and completed its publication in the free Gintama app from May 13, 2019 to June 20, 2019. Seventy-seven total tankobon volumes were released in Japan. VIZ Media published the manga’s first 23 tankobon volumes in English until 2011.

Crunchyroll is streaming the Gintama anime series and describes it as:
In a world where aliens have invaded Edo Period Japan, skyscrapers, trains and motor bikes have replaced the simple life of Earth inhabitants. One man however, still carries the soul of a samurai, Gintoki Sakata, otherwise known as Yorozuya Gin-san. As reckless as he is, Gintoki carries his own resolve and is ready to take on any challenge with his fellow companions.
