I laughed, I cried, I felt. I cursed myself for not viewing it sooner. Be Forever Yorozuya encapsulates everything that makes Gintama in a two hour, finely wrapped package. If the tv series weren’t returning as of next year, I could think of no better way to send off the series.
Perhaps it needs no explanation, but although Gintama is, at its heart, an episodic comedy series, this film is best watched after at least watching the first series. As it is an anime where characters are its strongest point, more than basic knowledge is required for full enjoyment of the movie.
The story of the film, like some of the most memorable arcs in the series, starts out with a definite comedy vibe before vaulting into more serious territory. If you’re looking for a legitimate glimpse into the Jou…

Advice: don't skip the beginning even though it seems like an ad
I thought the movie was really touching and I enjoyed it immensely. The beginning confused me, I thought it was simply one of those warnings not to pirate movies that typically come at the beginning of the movie, but instead it was part of the plot! I love how Gintama has the ability to throw the viewer off. However, it is probably not something enjoyed by everyone. Some people like things to be straightforward.
This movie embodies what I love about Gintama. Mixed in with all the comedy is a very touching and exciting story!

I found this movie extremely enjoyable, from the start all the way until the end, it was hilarious!
The beginning of the movie did start off slow, but the gradual progression was good, the story was building up at a good pace.
The ending!! i must say, out of all the movies I've watched so far, this has to be the best ending! It exceeded my expectations, even though a lot of events happened in the end, it did not feel rushed, everything seemed to fit nicely into the story.
The best part of this anime......definitely seeing a future Shinpachi, Kagura, Hijikata, okita and kondo!! But it was the ending that had me excited the most (i replayed it countless of times), i couldn't stop smiling, and i had goose bumps all over!
Also! the sound track and music choice! SpyAir!!! when SpyAir's…

A PERFECT TEN. It is one of the best movies based on a manga ever. Unlike the first movie which was just an ARC from the anime but with better visuals this one is a new story, in which we can finally see Gintoki fighting alongside Takasugi and Katsura before the aliens forbid carrying a sword. The movie was very masterfully made it had a lot of funny moments and some mentionings of a masterpieces like Hokuto no Ken and Rurouni Kenshin. Even if you haven't seen Gintama 'till now, you can still watch this movie and after that I am sure you will start the anime. AMAZING soundtrack, the art is outstanding. So just give it a TRY !!!

This movie is awesome, It has a great story and everything.
I love Gintama and this movie makes me love it anymore.
It seems like a serious mainstream movie when you look at the storyline, but its a totally different thing in the movie.
It tells an amazing story, and it strives to give us the humour that we see in the manga and anime in which we love. I love the transformation of characters and it is currently one of my favorite movies of all time.

Easy to understand Gintama review:
1-) If you are reading this that means you are at least considering to watch this movie.
2-) If you are considering to watch this movie, that means you are familiarized with the Gintama series.
3-) If you are not familiarized with the Gintama series, well then shame on you...you poor ignorant being.
3.5-) If you are indeed familiarized with the Gintama series, that means you have good taste. 4-) If you have good taste, you know you`re losing your precious time reading these useless reviews, so stop reading and go watch it.

Being a fan of Gintama, I really looked forward to this movie. I was not really let down, but maybe that was because I already knew what was coming.
Story: 8
It's an enjoyable story with some interesting twists and turns.The jokes and parodies are up to standard but is overshadowed by the fact that this seemed more of action-filled and drama movie. It still got me in tears and laughing the next second though. However, compared to other serious arcs, this would fall a little flat. It missed something that almost every arc had; a deeper insight into one of the character's past, most of the time Gintoki, so I was a little disappointed. Heck, even a filler arc had them. The time travel and virus were merely plot devices and could have been handled better.

*This review contains no spoiler*
Instead of the usual wordy review, I am just going to give you a quick run down because, quite frankly, I don't have the time to write and you don't have the time to read.
Story: 9.5
A fulfilling story completed with the signature mixture of outlandish comedy and adrenaline-packed drama that we love about Gintama and all seamlessly packed into an almost 2 hours long movie. Some say the movie offers no new progress into the story, but that's a silly complain because, as with most anime films, this is meant to be, for the most part, non-canon or at least not impacting the progress of the main series. I took out half a point because, as a fan of sci-fi, the way they portrayed time paradox was a little unsettling.

Gintama: Kanketsu-hen - Yorozuya yo Eien Nare, or Gintama: The Final Chapter - Be Forever Yorozuya, is the second film in the Gintama franchise, written by the author of Gintama, Hideaki Sorachi. Written as a possible end to the anime, this film brings Gintama into darker and more dramatic territory, more so then ever before, whilst still balancing the film with the humour that made the series so popular. All this, and more, is all blended together to create one of the best anime films created in modern days.
The film opens with the Yorozuya crew workng in a theater,and whilst it looks like a pre-film short, it's actually the opening to the film itself,and leads into the main plot. We find Gintoki Sakata in a world, five years in the future, where the world is falling apart, and he quickl…

"THIS MOVIE IS BAD"... if there's someone who said something like that i dont know their reaction about other anime movie then ( or maybe they were drunk when they said that )
since i'm gintama fan this review might be a bit biased but because i already watched all the episode and chapter i need to shout this
"THIS MOVIE IS AND ALWAYS BE THE BEST MOVIE I'VE EVER WATCHED"
Well maybe not the best to other people but i can safely say that gintama kanketsu-hen : yorozuya eien nare is one of the great anime movie
well lets just begin to review corner then :
story : 10/10
first time i watched the movie i was confused. i thought the movie thief was just a part of advertisement scene ( you know, the scene before the movie start ). then somehow he became one of the key character later on ( you…

I remember all the laughs I had watching Gintama. I was so excited for this movie and it had been lost in my memories until now after waiting for English subtitles. I was right to be excited for this movie because it was... absolutely amazing. Many things in the movie might seem plain like the plot but the creators of the movie have dug deeper and expressed them more thoroughly which can get to the reader even more than a regular scene. The classic jokes of Gintama never fail and the transitions between serious and humor are great too. If you don't watch Gintama, I suggest you do and even if you don't want to watch Gintama, I suggest you watch Gintama: Kanketsu-hen - Yorozuya yo Eien Nare because it is absolutely amazing!

With this movie, Gintama has reached even greater heights. Compared to the previous movie, Gintama: The Final Chapter - Be Forever Yorozuya isn't a retelling of an arc, but a story of Gin's past. Many fans throughout the Gintama franchise have always wanted an arc focusing about Gin's past during the Joui War, and now we get it. As a Gintama fan, you will definitely want to watch this movie about his past and how he tries to cope about what is to come of him.
The movie begins a bit slow at start and this is due to the "Movie Thief" character. While Odd Jobs are working in a theater for some money, the Movie Thief himself starts doing the obvious; filming illegally. As the long discussion goes with Gin and the Movie Thief about right and wrong, the producers decide to add in some jokes fo…

This is my first review, so bear with me =]
Gintama the movie 2, something I've been personally waiting for, for such a long time and boy was it even worth it? ATTARIMAIDA KONOYARO
Story 11/10 the plot for this movie is genius, from the the cause of the future downfall to the way it was dealt with, and I've not exaggerating at all, and ofcourse the freaking the surprise factors that were there left my jaw down for sometime, i could really write way more but trying to keep it spoiler-free
Art 9.5/10 the art of gintama has always been beautiful and detailed , how about having it in movie form??? from the expressions that were captured and done beautifully to the fast pacing moments where the animation looked stunning to the magnificent colors and awesome scenery, man did u even see how b…

Well to start off it should come by no surprise that i feel that this moive is awesome by my score.
Well this moive is one of the kinds that you would expected form gintama. The moive was really funny but yet had an masterpiece story which was masterfully planed out and animated.
Also the story doesnt give it all away and while sometimes it is obvious what going to happen next i only noticed a few mintues before thus keeping it enjoyble the whole way though.
It put the music in the right places which only added to the epic feel it had already.
All in all it was a great moive and if you havent watched gintama already you would still think this moive was great.
I highly recommend this to anybody coming to be or is already a big fan of anime.

The new Gintama movie is a side story that delivers some laughs and new character designs, but is totally convoluted. Asking Gintama to make sense is kind of a faux-pas. It's demented on purpose. But what starts off as an absurdist comedy quickly devolves into boring shounen fan pandering. The movie follows 265 episodes, a recap film, plus a series of practically unrelated OVAs. In conclusion it is a minor entry in the series overall, but is certainly not worth missing for any Gintama fan.
The story opens up with the Yorozuya three and Sadaharu in a movie theatre working part-time to grab some cash. Through a series of surprisingly refreshing and funny fourth-wall jokes, Gin and a new and hilarious character, the Movie Thief, end up travelling forward in time by five years. Here Gin learn…

As if the anime wasn't incredibly good already...I really think this second film really tops both the series and the previous movie. It had all the elements of what makes the show so good including a wacky intro making it classic Gintama from the get-go.
Story (9): I love the plot, very original in the sense of they managed to create a cohesive plot that connects all the characters that we know and tying into events from the series. Bringing the story into the future was really exciting because we get to see the characters we love in a whole new light which is always fun. Then there are the jokes; smartly placed amongst the drama and action. I only give it a 9 because it might get a little confusing towards the end though I assume most plots with time travel involved are tough to get your…

I was a little worried at first because I hadn't watched gintama in a while and I thought that I was holding expectations that were too high, but of course, the movie reminded me that gintama will never disappoint.
Not much I really need to say about the movie. It had every aspect of gintama pretty well covered and had a pretty solid story to it. Since it dove into the idea time travel, it was bound to have some questionable plot points, but come on. It's gintama so anything is possible. Amazing movie and hope to see the anime returning in the future.

Ok I will have to be honest, I am a new comer to the Gintama series and I heard it was fantastic and I was excited to watch it. I do not know all of the characters personally well but I invited my friends to watch it with me who were also new and OH BOY OK NOW TO GET TO THE REVIEW. ( I would like to point my knowledge of the series first)
STORY - 8
Well firstly the synopsis is on top and I would not like to repeat it here. I would sum it up here quickly. Gintoki has disappeared in the other world, not the one where our current characters are and Gintoki is transported there by a really funny introduction. (no more spoilers) I personally found it hilarious and I found myself laughing ALOT.
Characters - 9
The characters are grown up in the parallel universe where Gintoki has vanished and K…

Just gonna be honest and give this a 10/10!
I haven't actually finished the series but I did get to see the movie in theaters. It was simply amazing! I won't give anything away but you get the typical Gintama goodness!
The story is pretty great. Gintama's jokes are amazing and the way the story was set up was pretty original! The beginning threw me off but, Gintama always does that, to be honest.
The characters were SIMPLY FANTASTIC! The facial expressions and reactions were awesome and I, along with the theater, were laughing to death because of it. Seriously, great design, expressions, outfits, etc.
The audio was GENIUS! Spyair was awesome as always and the music was incredible. Some familiar music was played and the movie's original and the battle, humor, etc sounds were great.
