    Gintama

    The anime film Gintama: The Final will release on home media beginning August 4th. The film premiered in Japanese theaters this passed January.

    According to My Anime List, the film is “the concluding film to the Gintama anime series, adapting the final chapters of the manga series of the same name written by Hideaki Sorachi. The film covers chapters 699-704 of the original manga, with original material added in”. Gintama began as a manga series in 2003 and finally concluded after 16 years in 2019.

    The series follows a group in a fictionalized Edo where the Shogunate surrendered to aliens and they’ve integrated in society. The result is an anachronistic society with samurai, martial arts, but also modern technological amenities like scooters.

    While the film will be coming to Japanese retailers on August 4th, at the time of publishing an English release date has yet to be announced.
