| Just wondering whether there is a list somewhere that points out what all the serious episodes/arcs are in all Gintama seasons. I have watched all of them, but I probably forgot tons of information (about the plot and the characters). Rematching all the episodes is a bit to much, and if I remember correctly most episodes are just fillers or humour arcs. So please, if anyone has this info tell me :) I also do not mind action arcs that do not necessary add to the main plot, if they are interesting enough to watch on their own. |
| http://gintama.wikia.com/wiki/Gintama_Episode_List Just look it up yourself. It's hard to differentiate "serious" arcs from "comedy" arcs since most arcs have a little bit of both. Wikia includes all the arcs with 2 or more episodes, might help you refresh your memory at least. |

| Thanks to both :) But I wonder are there not serious arcs (episodes) that are done in one episode? If not were the first 30 episodes really fillers? O.O |

essiw said: Well, Gintama is basically an episodic series so I wouldn't necessarily call it filler. But yeah, the most important stuff are in the serious arcs, but the other episodes had worldbuilding and character development to them.Thanks to both :) But I wonder are there not serious arcs (episodes) that are done in one episode?

crystalblade13 said: Yagyuu arc was straight comedy pretty much the entire way throuh with an occasional slightly serious moment. Kintoki arc didnt even really get serious every single serious moment led to a punchline save for the ending.JizzyHitler said: Benizakura 58-61 okita's sister 86-87 shinsengumi crisis 101-105 guardian dog 107-108 yoshiwara 139-146 red spider 177-181 rokkaku 186-187 four devas 210-214 thorny 244-247 Courtesan of a Nation 257-261 beam saber 262-264 shinigami 279-281 Shogun assassination 300-307 Farewell, Shinsengumi 308-316 rakyou 317 - What about yagyuu (shinsengumi backstory and tae backstory. Plus getting to know the yaguu. And kintoki (dat gin characterization) |

crystalblade13 said: they are not almost entirely serious in the slightest, theres action but yagyuu is cracking jokes the entire way through save for small moment, its a dramedy at best but when people tend to refer to serious arcs in gintama they are referencing the really dark/tragic and more tonally serious arcs like shinsengumi crisis, yoshiwara and so on. Alot of gintama's comedy has a few serious moments but that doesnt mean the arcs themselves should be seen as a serious arc especially kintoki's arc which all around is a parody of gintama itself even in the serious moments, again every single serious bit in that arc is just the set up to a gag even down to how they defeat him. Yagyuu if you really stretch it i guess can count as one but it barely got serious.JizzyHitler said: Yagyuu arc was straight comedy pretty much the entire way throuh with an occasional slightly serious moment. Kintoki arc didnt even really get serious every single serious moment led to a punchline save for the ending. I think you need to rewatch yagyuu. It episodes 78 and 81 are almost entirely serious. As is everything involving kyubei (which is a lot). Not to mention, it shows how toshi met kondo, and it shows some of otae's backstory, as well as how much the character care about her (which is something nice to see in Gintama, where everyone is usually assholes to one another lol). Finally, shinpachi gets to be a badass in the arc, which is rare. Onto kintoki, it's another arc that shows the characters true feelings for one another (since Gintoki has to live out being the bad guy trying to mess with Kin, who is Gin in everyone's mind) And it displays Gintoki's self sacrificing nature, as well as how much of an effect shinpachi and kagura have had on his life.plus it has great tama moments. And tama is great. |

That list is quite outdated, most of those arcs are already animated. And it's missing some of the written arcs. |
