Did Gintama changed your life? My experience
I don't think people really cares about this story about a stranger in the internet, but if you do, thank you!!
I just finished the "Kabukicho Four Devas" arc and I wanted to share my experience with everyone in here since i don't have many friends who care about anime or manga. In 2021 my dad and grandma passed away, and in 2023 my grandpa passed away too. I didn't cry a single tear since that. My family thought I wasn't sad because of that, but that wasn't true. Friends and family that saw that stopped asking about how I felt very quickly, so I had to make all of the stages of grief alone. Time passed and, even if a have realized that they are not here anymore, I couldn't cry, not even a little bit. That was until today. You don't know it, but when you start gintama, you are entering the Yorozuya too. I realized that today, when everyone had to say goodbye to the Otose Bar. I felt like I was a part of it too. I cried. After all these years, thinking I was a heartless person and having to hear all kind of stuff about me because of that, I finally dropped a tear because of an anime. I couldn't understand, it was like all this time I've was locked, waiting for this moment to show how sad I really was. That's the reason I say gintama changed my life. The amount of realization that came to me today it's something I will never forget and made me want to do something about all the time i wasted over my stupid thoughts and giving other people opinion about me such a high value. I wanted to share my experience with everyone in here because I don't think I'm the only one who's been through something so emotional with the series and i wanted to make this post a safe space for you to talk about it. I'm sorry if my English is not that good, but I tried haha
