The film also inspired a live-action net show that debuted on Docomo’s dTV streaming service one day after the film’s opening.
The dTV streaming service also began streaming a trailer for the show on Monday.
Gintama 2: Okite wa Yaburu Tame ni Koso Aru (The Law is Surely There to be Broken), the second live-action film based on Hideaki Sorachi’s Gintama manga, opens in Japan on August 17.
Dōmoto previously played the character Shinsuke Takasugi in the first live-action Gintama film, and will reprise his role in the upcoming sequel film.
