Gintama THE VERY FINAL (Gintama: The Final), the third and last anime film based on the finale of the original manga, combined with new story elements, opened in Japan in January 2021.
The Gintama Ato no Matsuri event announced on Sunday that 3-Nen Z-Gumi Ginpachi-Sensei (Class 3-Z’s Teacher Ginpachi), Tomohito Ōsaki’s spinoff novel series of Hideaki Sorachi’s Gintama manga, will get an anime adaptation.
The 3-Nen Z-Gumi Ginpachi-Sensei was previously animated as a short at the end of several Gintama anime series episodes.
The manga also inspired a net anime special titled Gintama The Semi-Final with a story that served as a two-episode prequel to the film.
