Anime: Gintama
# of Episodes: 95 - Ongoing.
Genre: Comedy, Science Fiction, Action
Plot Summary: The story takes place in Edo (known today as Tokyo because of the name change in 1868), Japan, which has been taken over by aliens called Amanto since the late Edo period. The samurai of Japan have fallen, and the Amanto placed a ban on carrying swords in public. The story focuses on an eccentric samurai, Gintoki Sakata, his (partial) apprentice Shinpachi Shimura, and a teenage alien girl: Kagura. All three are "free-lancers" who search for work in order to pay the monthly rent, which usually goes unpaid anyway.

Gintama is one of the funniest animes I've had the privlige of watching, even though I've only managed to watch a few episodes. The city has been taken over by aliens, and the 3 protagonists are trying to etch out a living in it, often being dragged into humorous situations on a daily basis. The show is just pure light-hearted fun, and is highly addictive. If anything, it'd be nice to see a few of episodes of the series on the site.
Thanks
