The newest film in the Gintama series, Gintama The Very Final, will be available digitally on January 25, 2022, and on Blu-ray and DVD on February 8, 2022. Physical versions will include a 16-page art book that features different character art and storyboards.
The film is, of course, based on Hideaki Sorachi’s Gintama manga, but functions as a conclusion to the storyline of the anime. Sorachi wrote the storyline, while it was directed by the same director as the anime series, Chizuru Miyawaki.
“The countdown to destruction has begun! All will join to reclaim an Edo in grave peril! Earth is facing its darkest days, and the members of the Odd Jobs must come together to save it from an otherworldly menace,” says the official synopsis. “Old allies Gintoki, Takasugi, and Katsura strive their hardest for their own ideals, but standing in their way is someone with whom they share a sad history: Utsuro, an alternate personality of their former teacher and mentor, Shoyo. Shinpachi, Kagura, the Shinsengumi, members of the Kabuki District, and even former enemies will join their fight. As Utsuro’s power grows, Takasugi fights for his very life. Will Gintoki be able to put an end to all this?!”
The film was recently shown in theaters across the United States on November 21 and 22. There’s also a two-episode net anime called Gintama The Semi-Final, that serves as a prequel to the film.
The original Gintama manga ran from 2003-2019, and currently has more than 55 million copies in circulation. It also inspired a wealth of different anime adaptions that total over 350 episodes and two films, in addition to Gintama: The Very Final.
