Gintama — the beloved manga series by Hideaki Sorachi that ran in Weekly Shonen Jump (Shueisha) and has sold over 73 million copies worldwide (including digital editions) — is getting a new wave of NuiPal merchandise. Eight characters from the series are joining the palm-sized plush lineup.
The ongoing Gintama multiverse anime "3-nen Z-gumi Ginpachi-sensei," based on the spinoff novel of the same name, began airing on TV Tokyo affiliates in October 2025, keeping the franchise active across various media.
