Ryo Yoshizawa

Set in the alternate Edo-period Japan, an alien race from outer space has invaded the country and taken control, forcing the once mighty Samurai to lay down their swords. Once feared as the “White Demon,” former samurai Gintoki Sakata works as an everyday handyman – until a master swordsman tasks Gintoki and his friends with finding a cursed sword to keep it from falling into the wrong hands. Packed with sword-swinging sci-fi action and offbeat humor, Gintama is a journey through a visually-stunning universe where fantastical action lurks around every corner.
