The first live-action Gintama was supposed to be a one-off film but, hey, Rules Are Made to Be Broken ! Following the blockbuster success of the 2017 adaptation of Sorachi Hideaki's best-selling manga, Gintama returns with an even bigger sequel that's just as fun, irreverent and chock-full of action, spectacle and Easter eggs. Oguri Shun is back as the glib hero, eccentric samurai and odd-job business owner Sakata Gintoki. Most of the first film's cast members, including Suda Masaki, Hashimoto Kanna, Nagasawa Masami, Domoto Tsuyoshi, Muro Tsuyoshi, Yagira Yuya, Yoshizawa Ryo and Nakamura Kankuro, reprise their characters, while Miura Haruma ( Attack on Titan ), Tsutsumi Shinichi ( The Emperor in August ), Katsuji Ryo ( The Vancouver Asahi ) and Kubota Masataka ( Tokyo Ghoul ) join in new roles. Again directed by Fukuda Yuichi, Gintama 2 delivers both comedy and conspiracy by drawing from the manga's Shinsengumi Crisis Arc and episodes involving the shogun. With business going slow and funds running dry, Sakata Gintoki (Oguri Shun), Shinpachi (Suda Masaki) and Kagura (Hashimoto Kanna) pick up random part-time jobs to earn money for rent. But everywhere they go, they keep running into the police chief (Tsutsumi Shinichi) and shogun (Katsuji Ryo), who is touring the neighborhood incognito, and creating embarrassing situations. Meanwhile, the Shinsengumi police unit experiences an unprecedented internal crisis when vice-commander Hijikata Toshiro (Yagira Yuya) mysteriously turns into an otaku and gets forced out by ambitious upstart Ito (Miura Haruma), who is part of a bigger conspiracy.
