Only the Greatest Anime I have ever seen, that is Gintama. Its nice and relaxed, will be both surprising and predictable, yes, predictable, like this movie, and that my friends, is the amazing thing. You see, Gintama can Actually turn its predictability into a positive, actually making it work better for them. So you can imagine how happy I was to see a movie coming out for it. It was magnificent, majestic...well, just read on.

STORY - 9/10

Let me start out with the negative. This movie is completely and utterly predictable. Half the movie is anyway, and somehow, that actually makes it better. The predictability is ... all because of the Shounen aspect of the anime, it is just how a shounen will flow, but the comedy while not quite perfect as it was in the first and second series, was still near perfect. Let us get this straight, no man can truly say that Gintama has a perfect story, as it does not, and never will. A story Will destroy it, massacre it. Its okay if its only a couple of eps or 1 movie, but not as a series. The movie adapts the characters well, and the story while obvious, is quite enjoyable. And who the hell cares about that, the story does not matter! THE COMEDY HERE IS WHAT MATTERS, and gintama delivers!

Art/Animation - 10/10

Ah, the art. Well, this takes place in a kinda feudal Japan with alien tech, so you can imagine. The art itself is like rainbows to the eyes, magnificent and shining brightly, but only so to show you its pure perfectness. This could have the worst art, and yet would still be a feast to the eyes, cause of the way it is then put in. Lots of scenes are not in the best art style, because thats what it need. The thing is with Gintama, the flaws you see will nearly always be an actual positive, and that is why the art is so good. Many anime have art better than this, but you will still see the art get a higher score here than on those anime.

Sound - 10/10

Not much to say. The sound was perfect, voice actors, oh, I would pay y'all a $100000 dollars if you never quit(Dont take this literally thank you) and the sound effects...well, they were right. Not good, not bad, normal, So just give it full marks there.

Characters - ∞/10

How has Gintama survived so well without a story. Well, Ill give you the answer. The CHARACTERS! You see, the characters in Gintama are incredibly Perfect. No matter who it is, every character has a role to play once, and a crucial role. You'll remember them, if they come back, you'll know them, and when you see them, you only get happier. The characters are not possible, they are that good, and yet, there they are, providing you with the greatest cast in the world. Someone shout out something bad about them, Ill turn it the other way around. No matter what you say, I can prove you wrong when it comes to the characters. No matter how small, they make you happy, no matter how insignificant, they make you laugh, and no matter how little they are there, you love them.

Overall - ∞/10...Fine, 10/10

You see, I know no matter what I say, there will always be a person who hates it, even if they don't have a reason, and I respect your choice. But for those who haven't watched this or the series, please, give it a go. For once, it's not killing your time, its actually enjoying it. Every moment is pure bliss, and I do not kid here. For me and My older brother, when we finished this, it felt like a part of our life died. It kinda did. It was an empty feeling, one so bad, Ive only ever felt it when someone in my family died...okay, not really that bad, but that's how much Ill exaggerate it. Any of you read a series called THe Power of Five by Anthony Horrowitz? No? Read it, finish it, if you enjoyed it, you will feel the empty feeling I speak of. So with this anime, if you enjoy it, brace yourself, I don't know why, no anime can do that to me, but it just felt so bad, so empty, thats how much I enjoyed this, how good it was.
