Height: 177cm Weight: 65kg Birthday: October 10th A samurai who runs an odd-jobs shop called "Yorozuya Gin-chan." Usually, he is a lethargic man with dead-fish eyes, moving at his own pace with zero ambition, but when the situation calls for it, he gets the job done perfectly. He is a skilled cook. His true identity is a legendary Joui patriot who once participated in the Joui War to save his master, Shouyou Yoshida, earning the fearsome nickname "Shiroyasha" (White Demon). He was one of the "Four Heavenly Kings" of the Joui movement. Currently, he is also one of the "New Kabuki-cho Four Heavenly Kings," acting as Otose's representative. - Appearance Characterized by his naturally permed silver hair. He usually wears a vacant expression, and if he doesn't pay attention, his eyes and eyebrows drift apart, giving him a goofy look. His outfit is a school-designated jersey from the Zunbora Planet—black top and pants worn under a kimono draped over only one shoulder, secured by a belt and sash, with boots. His eyes are red. He basically wears the same clothes every time, but he owns four identical sets that he rotates. He has several sets of pajamas and winter gear. - Personality Basically lethargic, slovenly, and irresponsible. He frequently makes crude or lewd remarks and old-man jokes, is greedy for money, and can be extremely brazen. He usually approaches his odd-jobs work with the sole intention of getting paid for minimal effort. However, even if he lacks memory of an event, he has the integrity to take responsibility for his actions. He is the type to quickly forget things he dislikes, and he often forgets or messes up other people's names, though he gets genuinely angry when his own name is mistaken. He values keeping "promises" above all else; whether it's a one-sided vow to the silent dead or a promise forced upon him, he will risk his life to keep it. When protecting something he holds dear, his usual laziness vanishes. On the surface, he often acts like a villain to subtly take the blame, but deep down, he is compassionate and cares for his comrades, rushing to their aid regardless of the danger or the odds. Perhaps due to his time as the "Shiroyasha," he possesses a certain natural charisma. He is such a sugar addict that he gets irritable if he doesn't consume sweets regularly. His blood sugar levels are at the brink of diabetes, and he is supposedly restricted to one parfait a week (Shinpachi has mentioned that his excessive sugar intake has led to impotence). At family restaurants, he always orders a parfait. He calls a bowl of white rice topped with a whole can of red beans "Uji Gintoki Don." He often boasts that "life usually goes well as long as you get enough calcium," but in reality, he can only drink sweet dairy beverages like strawberry milk or coffee milk. He likes alcohol but can't hold it well, often vomiting inside vending machines or on the street. His favorite reading material is "Weekly Shonen Jump," which he buys almost every week on release day. He has been a Jump reader for 20 years. He is terrible at drawing but is unaware of it. He is terrified of ghosts, supernatural phenomena, and dentists. He seems to have played games in the past and has extensive knowledge ranging from the Famicom to current hits. His favorite game series is Dragon Quest, with "5" being his absolute favorite. He believes "5" is a greater masterpiece than "3." In "Dragon Quest 5," he always chooses Bianca as his bride. He also enjoys gambling, such as pachinko, and can be found playing in the middle of the day. He usually loses until he's penniless, but on rare occasions, he wins big. - Relationships Due to the nature of the Yorozuya, he interacts with a wide variety of people, both good and evil, and has an extensive social circle. Because of his usual sloppiness, he is often scolded by Shinpachi, Kagura, and the residents of Kabuki-cho, but he possesses a mysterious charm that draws people to him. He suffers from PTSD due to past trauma. He has the most fragile heart in the series. PTSD patients tend to crave strong flavors, especially sweets. There are many instances in the story where he exhibits symptoms of PTSD. He sometimes flees to something in search of peace of mind, and for Gintoki, that escape is gambling. His social relationships are broad but shallow.
