How it feels

In an alternate version of feudal Japan where aliens have taken over, a silver-haired samurai named Gintoki runs a odd-jobs business with his friends Shinpachi and Kagura. They take on various strange missions from saving a lost cat to battling alien criminals, all while mocking every anime and pop culture trope they can find.
