>inb4 stop blogposting faggot
my first and only gf introduced me to this show(and anime in general). we were both 19, at the
time i was working at a motel and her family stayed there for a month or so while their house was
being renovated. spent way too much time pretending to clean the pool so i could hang out with
her while on the clock. she really wanted to show me this gintama show she had been watching, so
one day after work we walked back to mine to put it on. shit was so cash at the time, honestly
the happiest ive ever felt in my life. sadly, like all things, it came to an end(mostly because
3dpd are trash). we got up to ~ episode 150, and ill never be able to finish the show because it
still hurts too much. even ops flash made me feel kinda sick for a bit to be honest

My first gf had a gintama connection too. I had been watching Gintama since it first came out,
was one of the few things that brought a genuine laugh out of me, and it never failed to. I tried
to get one of my friends who lived a couple blocks away to watch it with me, he never would, but
one time he mentioned that his girlfriend was a fan of Gintama. I never met her, all I knew was
her name.
Get ready for some anime cliche tier shit. Fast forward a few years, and I transfer to a new
school. In this class I pick the back corner window seat because I feel uncomfortable with people
sitting behind me and the courtyard looks comfy. There's a girl sitting to my right. I hear the
name of my friend's gf being called during rollcall. The girl answers to it. I lean over all sly
and say these exact words, "So... I heard you like Gintama." Don't remember her reaction to that,
but we became really close friends and hung out together all the time. My friend and her had
split up some time ago. A few months later, she's my gf.
A year later, I'm graduated, living in an apartment. She comes to visit all the time, we watch
the new gintama episode together every week. One night, I think she's about to leave, and tell
her goodbye, but she stays longer. Her best friend suddenly texts me, "I hope you have condoms."
She ends up coming onto me. I suddenly get ptsd flashbacks to when I was raped as a kid, and like
the absolute piece of shit that I am, I told her to leave and I ended up ghosting her. Fast
forward a few years, and I find out she now an FtM. I dodged a bullet there, but it still makes
me sad.

Yeah I finished it and still pick an episode or arc to rewatch every now and then. While watching
it, it's like I forget that I'm depressed and it manages to make me feel better about
myself--even with that memory attached.

Wow, this thread has truly shed some feels, but for a good reason. Gintama is fucking great, and
of course it will end up touching people's life.
I love Gintama too, a quite well versed friend of mine recommended it during a terrible time in
my life: my first gf cheated on me with a friend from our major at uni, same year and all. I had
to withstand the whole generation knowing and none telling me about it, after all the parties,
hanging out and studying I thought they were my friends but I was wrong, they just laughed and
talked behind my back, and I ended up an outcast.
With Gintama I learnt to laugh again, to not take things so seriously and enjoy the little
pleasures in life, while paying close attention to the people around me, helping out and
expecting nothing in return. In the end the show taught me many things about friendship and life
in general.
Every time I remember Gintama is bittersweet, but it will always make me smile. I guess it
represents life perfectly: lots of filling up with stupid shit we can laugh about and some
serious shit we gotta take care of, for better or worse. But you can always laugh about the whole
ordeal. Sorachi you magnificent bastard.

what if she turned FtM because you rejected her
also technically speaking FtM's are just the ultimate tomboys, just slightly more faggotry
depending on how they view tranny's in general

Sometimes I wonder just how much of an impact GIntama's made on me and others. It's one of those
things that I feel could completely change someone, or at least give them the push to change. Not
drastically of course, but in subtle ways that really make a difference.
>>3406737
I've thought that sometimes. Not that I'm trying to place some great importance on myself, but it
must have really fucked with them just being ghosted by someone close like that. Wish I could go
back and handle things differently.
