What is Gintama about?

At the end of the Edo period, aliens called "celestial beings" attacked. The war between the people on earth and the heavenly beings broke out immediately, and a large number of warriors and patriots of the anti-barbarian faction participated in the battle with the heavenly beings.

After seeing the powerful strength of the Celestial Beings, the shogunate signed an unequal treaty with the Celestial Beings without authorization and allowed them to enter the country. Later, the "Abandoned Sword Order" was issued and the samurai's swords were taken away.

Since then, heaven and man have been tyrannical, and the shogunate has become a "puppet regime." In such an era, there was a samurai who happily lived a whimsical life with his companions.

But in fact, he can be said to be one of the few humans in Gintama whose daily behavior seems normal, and his ability to complain is extremely powerful. He has normal views and is very enthusiastic and responsible.

Before joining Wanshiwu, he worked in a dessert shop. At that time, he was very reckless and often angered the store manager. He was a wage earner who never abandoned his self-esteem and samurai spirit. Because he was helped by Gintoki and attracted by Gintoki's "Samurai Soul", he volunteered to be a follower, but later regretted it because Gintoki had always been owed wages.

A straightforward, carefree and outgoing character. As a heroine, she doesn’t care about her own image. She can wipe noses with Gintoki on the street. He has a poisonous tongue and a sinister heart. He often has Aru's mouth habit at the end of his sentences and will sarcastically mock anyone without mercy.

Although he has a warlike nature, he is fighting against his warlike instinct all the time and wants to change the entire Night Rabbit clan. She is innocent and kind by nature, and like any ordinary little girl, she sometimes reveals her childish nature inadvertently.

I was overjoyed for a flower umbrella given by Gintoki, but later the kind-hearted Kagura gave the umbrella to a pair of poor brothers and sisters. I want to change the Night Rabbit clan, fight against the Night Rabbit's warlike nature, and use my own power to protect rather than harm others.
