Now this is the one that started all, the first step in a 15-years travel (even more years it seems actually).
Note: The first 2 episodes are not just bad, they are the worst episodes of the entire series. Luckily, they are anime original and you can skip to episode 3.

Benizakura Arc (episode 58-61), the one that changed it all, when Gintama demonstrated that it is not just a laughs and random sh¡t, but also serious when they want.
Such an important arc deserved to be entirely remade and screened at cinema.

This movie is an original story made by Sunrise, and it's just great. Gintama is known for its high quality fillers, and here the screenwriters shows once more how good they are at their job.

After an entire year of break (which is actually mentioned at the start) this OVA came some days before the next season.

Another year of break and there was nothing more than this OVA. In the manga these events happened before episode 35.

Follows the ending of the last season.
Technically this and the next 3 seasons are one, because they are titled Gintama., don't miss the dot.

Second part of Gintama.
Probably you want to skip this one, or watch it before episode 35 of Gintama°, because this season put aparts the plot and covers the unadapted chapters of the manga.

When Gintama: The Final was first released they just went to the final chapters. However, if Sunrise made a season to adapt skipped chapters, then they obviously adapted the final chapters they initially didn't.

High-School parody Spin-Off. Pretty funny that a comedy anime gets a parody.
