About the series
In 2007, Dargaud launched Gin Tama, a sprawling 77-issue comic series that blends sci-fi, samurai action, and absurdist comedy in an alternate-history Edo period overrun by aliens. The series follows a motley crew of odd-job freelancers, anchored by the eccentric silver-haired warrior Gintoki Sakata, as they navigate a world where tradition clashes with extraterrestrial chaos. Best known for its irreverent humor and heartfelt moments, Gin Tama became a cult phenomenon for its sharp parody of pop culture and Japanese history, cementing its status as a defining work of modern manga-influenced European comics.
