Gintoki Sakata (Japanese: 坂田 銀時, Hepburn: Sakata Gintoki) is a fictional character and the protagonist of the manga and anime franchise Gintama created by Hideaki Sorachi. Gintoki's name serves as part of the basis of the series' title. He is introduced as a former rebel samurai who lives in a fictionalized version of 1860s Japan after being invaded and transformed by aliens. Gintoki once fought in the Joui (rebel) war until a tragic event where he was unable to protect what he was fighting for, leading to him instead establishing "Yorozuya Gin-chan" (万事屋銀ちゃん)" (with Yorozuya (万事屋) literally meaning "worker of 10,000 jobs"), choosing to make a living as a freelancer for hire in Edo.
