I can only imagine how painful it will be Takasugi and Zura to confront Utsuro only to see their sensei’s face (Gintoki already got smacked with this reality beforehand). So this year will likely see Gintoki, Takasugi, and Zura (Sakamoto by extension) being forced to re-examine their past. His short time as the sensei of Shouka sonjuku school was a small blip in his incredibly long life. He’s really Utsuro, an immortal human being. On top of that, we’re also faced with the truth about who/what Yoshida Shouyou is. Through out it all, Sorachi’s been assaulting us non-stop with Gintoki’s past along with the rest of the Joui four. We lost Shige Shige, saw the temporary disbandment of the Shinsengumi, came along for the ride in the rescue of Kondou Isao, and are now bearing witness to a huge clash between our heroes and the combined power of the Tendoshuu and Harusame Space Pirates.

While a lot of people write this series off as a gag manga, it’s always had its serious moments and Sorachi has amped up the seriousness to full throttle over the past year. Don’t kill him Ohtaka, I’m begging you.Īnother series that’s navigating its final arc this year is Gintama. How about returning to Sindria as king, albeit a humbled one? I just want him to live. Or perhaps he could be a wandering adventurer.

If he’s anything like his namesake, Sinbad the Sailor, maybe upon defeat he can come full circle and settle quietly into life as a regular merchant. Anyway, his fall is inevitable as far as I’m concerned. I’m sure David and Arba will drag him down, though it’s his own fault for allowing them to influence him. So while you’re rooting for young, upstart Sinbad to achieve his dreams in SnB, you’ll also be crying as Sinbad falls off his pedestal in Magi. Sinbad no bouken will be his rise and Magi will chronicle his fall. The thing that will make this more painful is reading Sinbad no bouken along side Magi. We’re forced to read between the lines and conclude that Sinbad is on his way to becoming an antagonist. In developments of late, that shade has turned into full on darkness due to his association with David and Arba. You had to have noticed that while he can be jovial and amusing, he always had a shady side to him. While Ohtaka created a lovable character in the High King of the Seven Seas, she’s also been setting us Sinbad fans up for heartbreak. I’ve loved his character since his first appearance, however it’s time to face facts. I adore him with every fiber of my being. He is certainly going to destroy my life. What’s got me so wrecked you might ask? Sinbad. We don’t know how long this is going to last, but I’m sure it’ll end within the year. The planets are gonna align and my emotions will be toyed with. This year is going to be one where certain manga titles join forces to destroy me.
