Gin Tama, Vol. 19: Volume 19

Gin Tama volume 19 contains chapters 158 to 166.It is rated Older Teen (16+) due to "suggestive situations"Gintama is set in a world that has samurai, aliens, ninjas, monsters, pirates and anything you can think of really.Gintoki, Kagura, Shinpachi and Sadaharu make up the Yorozuya, a jack-of-all-trades group that help people with any type of problem (for a small fee)In this volume Hijikata buys a new sword (I still prefer Sougo's sword with the built in mp3 player...) But it seems that Hijikata's new sword is cursed. This causes a lot of problems for the Shinsengumi.Also in this volume is "Hideaki Sorachi Verbally Incontinent Roughly 43,000 Character Interview" which was taken from the June 15th 2007 issue of Akamaru Jump. Gin Tama's editor Onishi interviews the author Hideaki Sorachi.Any Gin Tama fan will love this volume. I recommend reading the previous volumes before this to understand the characters better.

Great managa

Absolutely hilarious series. Some of the references can be a little hard to understand as they reference many things from Japanese culture like manga series, bands, voice actors, idols, and celebrities

Gin Tama is one of those odd and offbeat mangas that blends different genres into an interesting yet very funny combination. If you like manga with a slightly different sense of humor like Cromartie High, you will like Gin Tama.This volume focuses mainly on the supporting cast of the Shinsengumi and ends on a cliffhanger.
