It begins as an emergency broadcast with our three protagonists dressed in black suits and accompanied by somber music as if they are attending a funeral. The creators used the economic crisis that was happening in the U. An ominous figure that represents Shonen Jump emerges, ends this fake-out and forces the Gintama crew to go back to work, capping it all with a fake ending pose that looks like a real ending.
Other notable fake-outs are in the animated films. The second movie, Gintama: The Final Chapter and now the third movie Gintama: The Final , all tease the end in their titles, though the third film promises a real ending for the series.
But the most notorious fake ending from the anime is no doubt its very last installment, Episode The episode begins with a proper first half, titled "There Are Lines Even Villains Can't Cross," which is not that exciting at all for a final episode, but that changes with the second half, "Gintama Final Ending Scamming Trial. Here, series creator Sorachi as his gorilla avatar is put on trial for all the fake ending scams that he put the production through.
It is revealed that the anime production committee wanted the manga and anime to end at the same time and planned ahead for it, but Sorachi continued to expand the manga. As time went on and with no end in sight, the anime had to rearrange its plans several times, eventually still having to end on a cliffhanger. Compared to the anime, the Gintama manga has a more troubled history. It started as a major hit in Shonen Jump -- at one point, almost as popular as the 'Big Three' -- has gotten more than one excellent anime adaptation, a shockingly good life-action film series, a successful light novel adaption and video games, too.

But, having gone past the point where we could get this out for the planned time on Monday, all of my editors over the years that had been ready with bundles of flowers to celebrate me finishing the final manuscript immediately turned those bundles of flowers into weapons and pelted me with them on after another.
Elaborating further, "Good grief. It seems like no matter what I do, there's no happy end for me Nah, just kidding After all my crimes of repeatedly having fake-out endings and delaying the final volume character book release date, I have no hope of recovery as a weekly manga author. Sorachi twists the knife even more hilariously as it seems like this really is the end, "I've probably lost my chance of ever being in Jump again and I'll have to draw manga while fighting death-row prisoners in an underground fighting arena, but even if that's the case, I have nothing but gratitude to all the readers and the motionless corpses of my editors laying at my feet for allowing me to reach the final chapter I wanted to draw.
