367 episodes released under seven different titles, which streaming services list as seven separate shows in no particular order.
There is only one order, and the trouble is that nobody writes it down where you can find it. Seven titles, 367 episodes, one continuous story, and the episode numbers run straight through all of it. Follow the numbers and ignore the names.
Seen some of these already? Tap the circles to tick them off. The full list below fills in as you go.
The original run. It opens as a joke-a-minute parody and spends about fifty episodes convincing you it is nothing else, which is the point most people quit at and the reason everyone else says keep going.
Picks up straight from 201 after a year off the air. The apostrophe is a broadcast branding change, not a reboot, and nothing about the story restarts.
Thirteen episodes that run directly on from 252 under yet another title. This is the block services most often file out of sequence or leave off the shelf entirely.
After a three year gap. This is where the long serious arcs take over from the comedy, and where most people who stayed say the show becomes the thing they recommend.
Twelve episodes carrying one arc. Short, and easy to miss because the title is the previous one with a different piece of punctuation on the end.
A block of lighter episodes deliberately placed between two heavy arcs. Skipping it is survivable, but it is where several running jokes get paid off.
The Silver Soul arc, twenty-six episodes, and the end of the television series. It stops before the manga's ending, which is what the last film exists to finish.
Two episodes that cover the gap between episode 367 and the film. They came out a week after the film, which is why almost everyone watches them in the wrong order.
The actual ending, adapting the last of the manga. Without it the series simply stops mid story, so this is the one film that is not optional.
Then what? That is the whole story. Gintama: The Movie retells episodes 58 to 61 and can be skipped outright; Be Forever Yorozuya is an anime-original side story that fits after episode 265; the 2026 Yoshiwara in Flames film re-animates an arc you have already watched; Ginpachi-sensei is the cast in a school and is connected to nothing.
A suggested way in, not an official one. The full list is below: tick anything off in either place.
Your progress is saved on this device automatically. The code below takes a copy out and puts it back. Moving a whole list onto a device that has nothing on it yet is part of the subscription.
The code holds only this franchise. The link opens the tracker with your progress already filled in, good for showing someone where you're at. The image is a picture you can keep anywhere: scan the code on it with a phone, or drag the file back in below.
Every franchise you have touched, in one code.
Scan it with another device's camera, or paste the code in below. It never leaves your browser.
This reads the progress stored inside the picture, so nothing has to be retyped. If the image has been through a messaging app it may have been re-encoded and lost that: scan the code on it instead, or copy the code printed along the bottom.
Takes either kind of code. A single franchise code replaces that franchise, on any device. An everything code merges by default, so nothing you have ticked on this device is lost. Putting a whole list onto a device that has nothing on it yet is the part an account pays for.
Read only. This never changes what you have saved, and nothing leaves your browser. The code has to be their code for this same franchise: codes do not carry a name, so one from somewhere else may not be recognised as wrong.
Your email is confirmed and your account is ready. Everything you tick is saved on this device, as it always was.
Part of the subscription.
Your SagaList account.
Nothing else happens until you follow the link. If it has not arrived in a few minutes, look in your spam folder and search for SagaList. It is sent from a no-reply address on our own domain, so there is nothing to reply to.
Both addresses get an email: the new one to confirm it, and the old one so that nobody can move your account without you knowing. Nothing changes until you follow the link.
Signing out leaves everything you have ticked on this device exactly where it is. It only stops it syncing.
This removes your account, your email address, and the progress stored on our side. It cannot be undone and we cannot get it back for you.
This stops your subscription too. It is cancelled at Stripe in the same step, so nothing more is charged. The rest of this month is not refunded and you will not be able to use it, so cancel from Manage or cancel and delete later if you would rather keep it.
