Shin-Gekijōban Gintama: Yoshiwara Daienjō 2026

Shin-Gekijōban Gintama: Yoshiwara Daienjō (translated as Gintama: Yoshiwara in Flames) is a highly anticipated Japanese animated action-comedy-drama film based on the beloved Gintama manga series by Hideaki Sorachi.

Think of it as a Hollywood-style blockbuster transplanted into Edo-period Japan but with the wild humor, heartfelt bonds, and explosive battles that define anime cinema. This film revitalizes one of the most iconic arcs from the series with completely new animation (never before seen on TV), a cinematic scope, and expanded character roles that bring fresh energy to a fan-favorite story.

In this emotional and action-packed chapter of the Gintama saga, samurai-with-attitude Gintoki Sakata and his freelance crew Shinpachi and Kagura cross paths with a young pickpocket named Seita in the forgotten underbelly of Edo.

Seita steals to survive, driven by the desperate hope of finding his mother, the renowned courtesan Hinowa, who lives in the shadowy pleasure district of Yoshiwara. The trio decide to help Seita, only to discover that Yoshiwara is no place for mercy its ruler, the ruthless Night King Hōsen, rules with fear and corruption.

As Gintoki and his friends venture deeper into the burning heart of Yoshiwara, they must confront not just Hōsen’s tyranny but also their own demons, all while an epic clash unfolds that tests their loyalty, courage, and resolve.
