EnduringInsanity said: Watched the first few episodes, never saw what all the hype was about. Might give it another shot later on. The biggest turn off for me is that length and the amount of remakes or ever the fuck all the other things are. Remakes? Gintama hasn't been remaked and you need to watch a good amount into Gintama to get into the good arcs. |

I just wanna say that I could care less about top rankings, it doesn't (and shouldn't) hurt my enjoyment of any given show, but if it gets more people talking about Gintama, then that's a good thing. It could use some well deserved exposure OUTSIDE of Japan where it is so very popular. Elsewhere though? Sadly, not so much... On topic: it's not like EVERY Gintama related thing is in the top 10 anyway: there are OVAs, specials and even the first movie, all of which are no where near it. No one here are biased assholes. If Gintama does something incredible then it should get a 10, just like any other show. If it just does something great, then a 9 or an 8. Just like any other show. Though i do have a hard time giving Gintama anything less than a 9 so... I'm probably bit of a biased asshole lol But to anyone complaining about newcomers coming to see the top ranked animes; you do know that the list continues for quite a while, right? Way past Top 100 anyway. Just scroll down a bit... Ta-da! Unless you're new to "top" lists, as well as animes, then it should be no problem. It's the same thing with foreign films hogging up the top rankings on sites such as Metacritic or Rotten Tomatoes - Movies that few people have seen but completely fell in love with, giving them perfect scores. And if you want Gintama to be combined into one series, well i can see the point in that, but then what about all the other split up shows? And how do you differentiate between a second season and a sequel series, or are they the same? Remembering what happened with the English-to-Japanese conversion, it's all about consistency with MAL so i doubt they can make exceptions like this. TL;DR - Gintama is a great series and i hope you'll all check it out :D |

I'm really starting to think that those people who hate Gintama simply don't get shit about the humor. Well for one thing, it was solely catered for japanese fans, hence the references and parodies in regards to their culture. I mean you can't simply hate on something that you don't even understand. In fact, ever since I started watching the series back in 2011, at the back of my head I've always been judging anyone's taste in anime because of this show. If you love this anime then you appreciate a damn good anime, it's that simple. |

I see a lot of you hating on this without even having it on your lists (which leads me to assume you haven't seen it). That is very silly. Even an episode or 2 is enough, but to have seen none of it and judging it is silly. Of course, it is currently absent from my list too, but I have seen 3 episodes. I was just confused as to what score I should currently give it, and I don't leave things unscored for the most part. |

Gintama for starters isnt reliant on solely japanese humor, at the start there were more than alot of references to japanese culture but as it goes on its more about regular casts and stories and even when its referencing its not solely referential humor but how they use it for humor making it entertaining even if you dont know where its coming from, and even then it references a ton of stuff outside the japanese culture, star wars, beverly hills cop, jackie chan movies, fucking obama, brooklyn gangs, and so many more. You dont need to understand the parodies that slowly fade to nothingness as the series progresses to like the humor and even then that argument is completly devoid of logic since rumbel subs explains the references. Its amazing how someone trying to defend this show and down those that done enjoy it cant even understand the show hes defending The worst aspect of that comment was the part on judging someone taste for not liking gintama, to which i say you give every gintama fan a bad name, Its completely understandable why people wouldnt like this series, hell theres tons, Its immature when people prefer dry mature humor, its over the top when someone may prefer more clever grounded humor, its pacing is slow, it never stops having dud episodes, and so on and son not even getting into the subjective aspects like not caring for the characters or disliking the pace Judging one for not liking gintama is nothing short of fucking moronic and by saying so only make us gintama fans look like delusional assholes, you are wrong on so many levels and the fact that you act like your above others because of it is downright laughable |

Only thing I know about Gintama is that it has 201 episodes, and another season (I guess, I don't care enough to investigate further) with 51 more -- far, far more than I'm willing to invest in in case it's not top-tier. A show needs to be Monster, Blood+, and FMA:B good first before I dedicate even half that much time into a huge series from now on. And even then, Fist of the North Star and all its iterations was enough endless shounen for me. |

@Thread Yeah, I agree that there shouldn't be four Gintamas in the top 7 list. I suppose MAL could remove the three of them and only keep the main series there. Or are you going to say your top 5 favorite smartphones are "iPhone 5, iPhone 4, iPhone 3, Galaxy S2, iPhone 2"? |

Forgetfulness said: It parodies a lot of things including shounens, SoLs, Japanese celebrities, etc. And anyone can pick it up, it does have references but it also has normal comedy based on the characters and the situations, etc. Each episode has a story, so it's not like people sitting around making references to series that you haven't heard of, so you're not laughing at all. It's able to keep you entertained even if you're not laughing.On a side note, I hear that Gintama parodies other series (I think other shounen?). Does that mean it's better to wait til you have a large amount of anime watched before seeing Gintama or can most people just pick it up? |

The funniest parts about Gintama are inside comedy or in other words references to stuff about the series itself. The parodies are mildly funny and sometime good but I personally don't believe that they are the best thing about the series or it's comedy in particular. They are a lot of meh episodes so don't have high expectations if you ever decide to watch it or invest your time in it. |

Does that mean it's better to wait til you have a large amount of anime watched before seeing Gintama or can most people just pick it up? No not really. The funniest parts about Gintama are inside comedy or in other words references to stuff about the series itself. The parodies are mildly funny and sometime good but I personally don't believe that they are the best thing about the series or it's comedy in particular. Yeah. Parodying alone won't carry a show. Oh my god yes. Exactly this. Those two episodes were fucking hilarious, Katsuro was epic as always lol. You see, episodes like these are what make me continue watching Gintama, and not regret watching it and investing my time on it. I'm on episode 130, sadly the level of 99 and 100 is not found yet. But when Gintama is funny, it's really funny. |

Since this thread is already derailed (who I am kidding, I made it to be dereailed or else there is nothing to talk about), I will post this mind-blowing (or not) statistics. 5 new entries from 2013 made it into MAL's top 30. They are Gintama final movie (#1!!!!!!!), Shingeki no Kyojin #12, Kuroke no Basket S2 #20, Monogatari Series S2 #26, and Steins;gate Movie #27. AND you did not read wrong. Gintama movie just made to number 1... Well. This confirms my earlier (locked) thread about how amazing 2013 is in terms of MAL stats. |

And to this day, I still fail to realise why MAL rankings matter so much. |

5 main aspects I base my ratings on: 1. Did DramaEnthusiast make a thread about it? 2. Is it better than Breaking Bad? 3. Did MellowJello recommend the shit out of it? 4. Has it caused a (very entertaining) shitstorm on MAL? 5. Is it actually good? Scratch the fifth point, it's not very relevant... |

tsudecimo said: episode 99 is definitely one of my favorites but there are a few episodes better than it, theres a ep in gintama' called the patriot episode thats just funny as all hell, theres also a shogun episode at the pool as well as a arc with them trapped in the forest with him, those are better than 99 in my opniion but barely, the entirety of the dragon quest bit is pure comedic goldYeah. Parodying alone won't carry a show. Oh my god yes. Exactly this. Those two episodes were fucking hilarious, Katsuro was epic as always lol.

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 |

^ What about the popularity poll arc? That was for me the peak of hilariousness in Gintama. Or even the two episodes in which Gin thought he got laid laid with every girl plus Madao lol Mod Edit: Quote tower fixed. |
