Most of the Gintama films are canon (following the official storyline) and are highly recommended because they still have related stories. Especially the second and third films, as the third film serves as the conclusion of the overall story. Meanwhile, the first film is just a complement to the story or is considered as episodes 58-61. Some OVAs of Gintama are canon, but their plots do not affect the main storyline. If you want to save time, the OVAs can be skipped without losing much context. However, the OVAs still remain an interesting part as they often present additional funny moments or character details.

Gintama is an anime set in an alternative Japan during the Edo period, but with an alien invasion and modern technology that is unusual for that time. The story centers around Gintoki Sakata, someone who was once a respected samurai but now works as a yorozuya or jack-of-all-trades. Together with his assistants, Shinpachi and Kagura, Gintoki faces various absurd missions as well as serious conflicts arising from his past and political situations. Although wrapped in humor, the anime can be a serious one with a deep storyline.
The Gintama series can be enjoyed on streaming platforms like Crunchyroll and Netflix. As for the last film, Gintama: The Very Final, it is available on Apple TV and Shout! Factory TV in some regions. Physical versions (Blu-ray) are also available but are difficult and expensive to obtain.
