Gintama is reaching the end...

Hah, some people are still in denial and believe that after a while the authors will again announce a sequel.

Technically, it is very likely that one day they'll throw a sequel. Plenty of franchises made enough money to the point studios and committees pressured the authors to continue for some extra $$$.

That's why we had shit like DBS, Boruto and so on.
That's also why Fairy Tail has manga continuation, Seven Deadly Sins has another manga, and heck, immediately when Chainsaw Man ended they announced another part that would continue the current one.

Money plays a huge role for any series, and if they offer said author enough, doubt they'd say no :)

Keep in mind, I am not a Gintama fan, nor do I care whether they continue the series or not, however, it is VERY likely for it to continue one day due to popularity, money and so on.

Do you think Boruto exists primarily because the author and / or Jump did not want to lose such a money-making franchise?

Armados said:


Yes. Kishimoto was completely burnt out and finished his manga earlier than anticipated because he felt like he wants a break. That's why he suddenly took over Boruto years after it was created.

Nah, Gintama is only popular in Japan. It isn't a franchise like Naruto, Bleach, Demon Slayer or One Piece in popularity terms. But again, yes, i can see Gintoki saying in 4 or 5 years "Since Gintama has ended some time ago, now we going to start Gintama: Next Generation Z... Or something like that".
