Member whitesnake Posted November 6, 2017 Member Share Posted November 6, 2017 CityonFire.com revealed that Well Go USA will release Gintama on Blu-ray and DVD on Feb 20, 2018 [sorry, looks like the release has been pushed back to March 6th], and should soon be available for pre-order on Amazon. Well Go USA hasn't been picking up the live action Japanese movies based on manga and anime before. If they're released in the US, usually it's from Funimation. So maybe some distributor will pick up the live action Fullmetal Alchemist, Bleach, Laughing Under the Clouds, and JoJo's Bizarre Adventure for release here too. A live action Gintama sequel has been announced for release in Japan in summer 2018. http://www.crunchyroll.com/anime-news/2017/11/15/plans-for-second-gintama-live-action-movie-spotted Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Member whitesnake Posted January 5, 2018 Member Share Posted January 5, 2018 According to the website, Gintama is playing in 4 locations in Florida. Like, if it was playing in San Francisco, and I really wanted to see it, that would be a 2-hour drive for me. I've made that drive many times over the past 4 decades. But it's playing in 2 locations a lot closer to here (such as the closest Studio Movie Grill). And it will be out on Blu-ray and DVD in a couple of months. Maybe someone will get that as a present for your birthday. Get some take-out sushi from a Japanese restaurant to eat while watching that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderator thekfc Posted March 6, 2018 Moderator Share Posted March 6, 2018 I did a stop at Best Buy on my way to work this morning - the Union Square store is open 24 hrs. Buy a few new releases but this title was no where in sight. Spoke to an associate & she looked it up, system shows they suppose to have it but they couldn't find it after doing a search.

Jiro Sato is returning to the film, but in a new role. He played perverted samurai Henpei in the original. (Sorry the post is in Japanese, but the photo teases director Fukuda with a familiar anime character) Translation of post: Gintama, shooting, it is a stuff! ️ It will be over in 2 days 🤣 I'm happy, I feel lonely 😌 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maetel and Tetsuro, from Leiji Matsumoto's Galaxy Express 999 manga, also appear in the show. The show starts on August 18th on Docomo's dTV streaming service. The three episodes are "I Can't Sleep", "Hijikata Smoking Ban," and "No Matter How Old You Are You Hate Going to the Dentist". The show is written and directed by Fukuda Yuichi (Gintama and Gintama 2 live action movies). Shun Oguri plays Gintoki Sakata in the mini-series as well as in the Gintama 2 movie (Gintama 2: Okite wa Yaburu tame ni koso Aru). Also both in the Gintama 2 movie and Gintama 2 mini-series are: Kanna Hashimoto (as Kagura), Yuya Yagira (as Hijikata), Kankuro Nakamura (as Isao Kondo), Shin'ichi Tsutsumi (as Katuriko Matsudaira), and Ryo Yoshizawa (as Sougo Okita).
