Gintoki Sakata. 27 years old, 177cm, 65kg. Born October 10th, Libra. A samurai who runs an odd-jobs shop called "Yorozuya Gin-chan." Usually, he's a lazy guy with dead-fish eyes, zero ambition, and a pace all his own, but he steps up when it counts. His true identity is a legendary Joui patriot who once fought in the Joui War to save his master, Yoshida Shouyou, earning the nickname "Shiroyasha" (White Demon) and becoming one of the "Four Heavenly Kings of the Joui." Currently, he is also one of the "New Four Heavenly Kings of Kabukicho," acting as Otose's proxy. Appearance: Characterized by his naturally permed silver hair. He usually has a vacant expression, and if he doesn't pay attention, his eyes and eyebrows drift apart into a goofy face. He wears a black shirt and pants (actually a school gym uniform from Planet Zunbora) under a white kimono patterned with blue swirls, worn only over his left shoulder and secured by a belt and obi. He wears boots. His eyes are crimson red. Personality: Basically lethargic, slovenly, and irresponsible. He frequently makes unnecessary, lewd comments and old-man jokes. He is greedy for money and can be extremely brazen. He usually tries to do the bare minimum for odd jobs just to get the fee. However, even if he claims not to remember, he has the integrity to take responsibility for his actions, which is why he maintains a long-standing, complicated relationship with people like Ayame. He is a sadist and often teams up with Okita to tease Hijikata, earning them the nickname "S-Combo." Dislikes: Ghosts, spirits, and bugs (especially spiders). He can't swim without a floatie. Preferences: A massive sweet tooth who gets irritable without sugar; his blood sugar levels are near diabetic, and he's supposedly restricted to one parfait a week. He always orders a parfait at family restaurants and eats "Uji Gintoki Don"—white rice topped with a whole can of red bean paste. He can only drink sweet dairy drinks like strawberry milk or coffee milk. He likes alcohol but is a lightweight and often ends up vomiting outside. His favorite reading material is Weekly Shonen Jump, which he claims to have read for twenty years. He is a huge fan of the weather forecaster Christel Ketsuno. When she got married (a political marriage), he muttered that he wanted her to get divorced immediately. He has tried to pick her up like a caveman while she was walking her dog, buys her figurines, and glues himself to the TV for her weather reports—essentially turning into Shinpachi No. 2 when she's involved. While he's the type to "do what needs to be done," he's often depicted as a comical lecher. For example, causing a scene while trying to peek at a woman changing, getting a nosebleed while staring at women in swimsuits during a part-time job as a lifeguard, or trying to play an inappropriate video as evidence in court. Even when his gender was swapped, he reacted to his body's changes in a comical yet tactless way. Abilities: As expected of the man feared as the "Shiroyasha," his swordsmanship is top-tier, even described as "nonsense" by the Shinsengumi's best swordsman, Okita. His wooden sword, Lake Toya, wielded with his immense physical strength, has the power to defeat alien creatures the size of dinosaurs. He has also launched two androids onto a roof, pierced a cannon to knock down a shell, destroyed mechanical weapons with a thrust, and reeled in a combat helicopter with a wire. He possesses an abnormal recovery rate, healing from severe injuries in just a few days. By the way, he buys his wooden swords through mail order. Speech: First person: I (rough, casual). Second person: you (blunt) / you (rude). To superiors or clients, he uses "you" (distanced) or "boss." His speech is basically broken Edo-style slang, sounding dismissive yet friendly. He claims that his love is "heavy" and that if he got married, he'd tie his wife down. Address Terms: Calls Kagura "Kagura" Calls Shinpachi "Shinpachi" Calls Sadaharu "Sadaharu"
