Скачать или смотреть Taking a Look into Gintama's Historical Setting - The Bakumatsu Period

Part I of II for examining Gintama's historical influence.

Watching Gintama has gotten me interested in a bit of Japanese history and while I by no means am an expert on it, I hope this can give further context regarding Gintama's historically-inspired setting.

For the sake of transparency, my biggest source of information for this video is:

A Modern History of Japan: From Tokugawa Times to the Present
By Andrew Gordon

Decent book, check it out if you’re interested.

(My main gripe with the book is that it often drops a contentious statement without immediately justifying it and only does so a couple of paragraphs later which slightly soured my personal reading experience but YMMV)
