Gintama Ep 1

Here goes my most anticipated series of this season. However, I didn't enjoy this episode much because everything was anime original, which got me disappointed. However, it looks like they are starting from the very first chapter of the manga in the next week, which relieved me. I think making an original intro ep is okay. (Get Backers did it too) However, I think this didn't work well for this series because they suddenly introduced all those characters, which will definitely confuse the hell out of the people, who haven't read the manga. Also, I didn't find this ep funny. The op and ed songs were pretty good especially the op and the overall quality of the anime isn't bad for a shounen manga-based anime. I won't judge too much about this anime for now because we are not on the real track yet.


From the opening. Sadaharu, you bad dog!!! Get down from Gin-san NOW!!! lol


The protagonist, Sakata Gintoki.


Gintoki's buddy 1: Shimura Shinpachi


Gintoki's buddy 2: Kagura (I think she looks cuter in the anime ^O^)


Kagura's pet, Sadaharu.


Sacchan, the kunoichi. (Sexy~ >O<)


Shinpachi's older sister, Otae-san.


Here comes Shinsengumi!!!


Kondo Isao aka the gorilla.


Hijikata Toushirou, the king of mayonnaise.


Okita Sougou, the sadistic prince.


Yamazaki Sagaru, the badminton lover. (Kawaissu~ >O<)


Katsura Koutarou(aka captain Zura) and Elizabeth.


,,,even though I didn't like this episode, there were characters that kept me to feel enjoyed.


GIN-SAN, GAKKOIIYO, GIN-SAN!!! >O<
But his voice was a bit thicker than what I imagined. Sugita Tomokazu-san should have used his lighter tone 'cause he sounds too old now. -_-;;;

...talking about seiyuu, of course,


HIJIKATA-SAN, GAKKOIIYO, HIJIKATA-SAN!!! >O<
Yup, I'm a fan of Nakai Kazuya-san just like many other girls. ^__^;;;


Okita tries to eliminate Hijikata-san. HOW DARE YOU!!! lol but Okita's so funny.


It's not Zura, it's Katsura. I love that line. lol
