The old one for introductions to the characters and stuff. It's the first season. Gintama doesn't really have a plot line so you can start wherever you want but why wouldn't anyone start from the very first episode? It's a great anime. Hope you enjoy :) (It might be confusing at first though)

Go with airing dates, you can skip the first 2 episodes, most people find them bad and they are anime-only.


Oshii is probably the only director that loves dogs. He thinks he's a dog himself.

That's right, its slime! It will dissolve your clothing slowly before my eyes!

I suggest the oldest one. It's just easier to keep track of that way and later episodes sometimes make references to older ones

Start from the first one. Each additional season is basically an extension of the first season.

all of them at the same time


You start with the first one. Just click on a random gintama series and then keep clicking on 'prequel' until there is no more prequel and you'll know which the first series is.
I probably regret this post by now.

It's up to you ,but like everyone says, start from the old one. You will miss a lot of great arc and funny episodes. Also you won't find gintama funnier without character development

of course the old one. you need a character introduction to enjoying it.
you better watch the introduction recap. i'm not sure what eps is it (between eps 50 - 100). you can search it in wikia. the early eps in gintama was boring af
