| I didnt notice it till a friend pointed it out but Sorachi has a really tragic look on couples in this series. Outside of the ship teases for gintoki and his love interest(s) anyone else in this series has: A: unrequited love(played for laughs mostly) B: 1 of the 2 lovers die C: both of them die. The latter 2 more than anything I mean think about it I guess Sorach is a fan of tragedies, granted anyone could tell that from watching any of this show's serious arcs. |

Sad taste you have there kid you came up to me in the first place making you look more like a kid who got slapped without me even knowing it and start crying about it to me |
Sophilia said: Oh no sorachi does a fantastic job on tragedies. Hes never made me cry but many deaths have made me misty eyed. Though i still think the saddest death in the series wasHe does a great job on it though. I've cried to each and every one of these, and he makes it especially dramatic too, which I love. |

| Well yeah, i noticed how there arent any ongoing romantic relationships on the show. It's either played for laughs (Sacchan x Gin,) ends tragically (Toshi x Mitsuba) or is simply hinted at (Tsukky x Gin.) Only one i can think of is Hasegawa-san who DOES have a wife but she's pretty much disowned him by this point for being a Madao xD I guess Sorachi just doesn't care about that stuff or he cant find a good way of writing it in... Gintama needs at least ONE official couple lol |

SteampunkDalek said: Gintoki and tsukuyo may be the closest we will ever get to that. Then again gintama track record could hint that tsukuyo will end up dead by the end of this series but i dont know if sorach is really up for killing off any of the major recurring characters and i really hope he doesnt cause that would ruin alot of the comedy even if they die at the end of the series, like if hijikata dies if you ever look up a funny clip involving him you wont find it as funny cause youl just be reminded that character diesWell yeah, i noticed how there arent any ongoing romantic relationships on the show.

If anything happens it happens and if it doesn't then that's fine too. |

| Is there any proofs of especial relationship Tsuki with Gin? Sorry for offtop maybe, but I don't think they will somehow develop. It looks like the main plot is connected with Gintoki's teacher. I guess final arcs will be not about romance but about politic, government, bushido etc. I don't think Sorachi will ever ship Gintoki with somedody. |

Also what makes you think romance needs to be focused on to happen? Romance is basically a sub genre that can be added into anything but rarely can ever be focused on as a main plotpoint. It can be buts its rare and even more rare that it actually works. The only thing i can think of that was romance as the main plot that wasnt complete and utter shit is this http://myanimelist.net/manga/46282/Chikan_Otoko |

| Yeah, that pairing was obvious at those arcs, but now it is nothing more than object of jokes. Tsuki became typical tsundere, as Saa-chan - stalker. Imho Sorachi add her just for increase of interest. At least for me GinXTsuki doesn't look like canon couple. |

The end of series doesn;t mean end of Yorozuya. Married Gin... Honestly I just can't imagine that. |

Banu02 said: Well no shit it sbeing used as a joke, its gintama, anything in serious arcs is valid joke material. In the 2 serious arcs she appeared in there were a bunch of ship teases, seeing how 1 of them was very recent i doubt you can write this off as just a joke. Separate comedy and seirous gintama when looking at characters cause they act much differently depending on the tone. Example gintoki will betray his friends and use them as a human shields in comedy arcs, in serious arcs he will sacrifice himself to help them.Yeah, that pairing was obvious at those arcs, but now it is nothing more than object of jokes. Tsuki became typical tsundere, as Saa-chan - stalker. Imho Sorachi add her just for increase of interest. At least for me GinXTsuki doesn't look like canon couple. Can we stop this discussion, its completely derailing it and has no real tie to the actual topic. Jus tleave it at this, tsukuyo is a potential love interest, whether that will go through is up to sorachi for whenever he decided to end it which wont happen for a long time. |

Hisame said: have no clue who those are but i did say MOST not allCan we count Jurota and Azumi as a romantic couple? They didn't die and it wasn't a unrequited love at the end. |

| tsukuyo won't die, any of main characters won't die in this comedy show (maybe except takasugi…), i'm pretty sure about that! gin and tsukuyo were meant for each other that obviously hinted by the story but they probably not being together eventually because yorozuya (three people and one dog) lasts forever. |
Demonspeed said: I think his relationship which Tsukuyo will stay as it is.Gintoki is one of the male characters who NEVER really shown signs of love,except for Ketsuno. -Hijikata loved Mitsuba -Kondo loves Otae -Katsura loves Ikumatsu -Madao loves his wife Tsukki and other girls have no chance IMO.But,Sorachi can do anything. gin-san is just a fan of ketsuno, that's different from romantic love... and yes in gintama's world, the present is the future, any romance won't develop. all of them will stay as existing state of affairs for ever. (even though ikumatsu was katsura's real wife in history!) |
Hisame said: Can we count Jurota and Azumi as a romantic couple? They didn't die and it wasn't a unrequited love at the end. I'm sorry but…who are jurota and azumi?? |
Silver_Wave said: Remember Agomi? The okama with the long chin? That's Azumi. And Juurota is a host from Takamagahara. There's a half episode focused on them both; I can't remember much, but it was funny as hell. I think Azumi disguised as a host during that ep.Hisame said: Can we count Jurota and Azumi as a romantic couple? They didn't die and it wasn't a unrequited love at the end. I'm sorry but…who are jurota and azumi?? Still, a minor couple. Them being together does not say much about Sorachi's intentions for the main cast's romance. Personally, I doubt Sorachi takes romance seriously; if it isn't tragic or for the lulz, then it's just pairing fanservice and the pairings involved still won't be canon, most likely. |
| The big brown fox jumps over the lazy dog |
| episode 111 i got it = = |
| you have pretty much romantic happy couples also O.o it's not true that all are tragedy outcome ~ and it's better this way cause it's not stupid over romantic usual atmosphere. cause love can be really painful sometimes I mean tragical and that other half can die anytime, but you don't need to show tears to everyone you can just stuff that person important to your heart and go with life further.. also I like it xD since I shipp from hetero pairings only Okita x Kagura and Otae x Kondou ^^ Gintoki is for Hijikata only they are just perfect match so for me it's ok *o* ~ |

| i got slight hint for ginxtae at the last obi1-arc... and if you think, you want to keep yorozuya 4ever, than ginxtae is the best option.. otae is shinpachi's older sister, and gintoki also like older brother for him. and even though kagura calls otae as anego, i think she obey her more than it it's almost like otae is her mother... (while gintoki is her father in the earth) and, otae has thought both of them (3 with gintoki) as her family already... otae cares for gintoki when he was injured at benizakura-arc (she look so mature and understand him so much, the touching scene was when they passed each other under rain) if you think that there are so much hint for ginxtsuki, i personally thought that ginxtae also got much attention... but since there is big different personality between them (tsukuyo is tsundere, while otae is yandere), it's look like that tsuki romance plot more interesting. just my own rumbling... peace :) |

| Definitely. Gintama is a masterpiece |

| That is why Gintama is amazing. Its a "comedy" and sometimes a generical shounen, yet very "real" at times. Which is perfect. |
