Gintama 20th Anniversary Surprise: New Spinoff Series to Air in 2025

Gintama is an impressive anime, and its third and last film opened in Japan in January 2021. We all believed we had reached the end for good; however, the staff has fooled us again.

The year 2023 marks the 20th anniversary of the manga, and the staff members are releasing more content to commemorate this occasion.

The Jump Festa ’24 event revealed an anime adaptation of Tomohito Ōsaki’s ‘3-Nen Z-Gumi Ginpachi-Sensei’ series. It will air on TV Tokyo in 2025.

The spinoff series was first released in 2006 and is set in Gintama High School and follows the school teacher Ginpachi Sakata and his students.

Ginpachi does not have the personality or appearance befitting a teacher, and the school has now been turned into an amusement park of terror, crowded with students with strong characters.

Most recently, “Baragaki” arc compilation screenings were also announced for the 20th anniversary celebration. If getting fooled by Gintama authors means receiving more content, all of us are up for it!

About Gintama

The story is set in an alternate-history late-Edo period, where humanity is attacked by aliens called ‘Amanto.’ Edo Japan’s samurai fight to defend Earth, but the shōgun cowardly surrenders when he realizes the aliens’ power.

He agrees to an unequal contract with the aliens, placing a ban on carrying swords in public and allowing the invaders to enter the country.

The samurai’s swords are confiscated, and the Tokugawa bakufu becomes a puppet government.

The series focuses on an eccentric samurai, Gintoki Sakata, who works as an odd-jobs freelancer. Although the story is mostly episodic, a few story arcs and recurring antagonists develop.
