I gave the story a 'very poor' because there was no option for 'non-existent.'
This show is foolish. I fear if i dwell on it too long i'll lose more IQ points than ever. It's a strange phantom that's in everyone's periphery vision, everyone has heard of Gintama, but they aren't quite sure what it's about or whether it's good or not.
I'm telling you, the worst position you can put your friend in is asking him to explain what gintama is and what makes it a good show. They will fail, and if they manage too please stop them before they begin to get a glassy eyed look and drool right in front of you.
This idiotic, insane, hilarious masterpiece is a great shounen that you can watch absolutely any time you want. In the middle of a depressing anime? Watch gintama. Doing homework and want a break? Watch gintama. Have absolutely no idea what anime to watch and don't want to invest too much time or interest? Watch gintama. I just want to warn you that you will lose braincells. It's so stupidly funny. Never has there ever been an appropriate time to use the acroynm 'LOL' or 'ROTFL'
