Traits: A man who lives for the future while trying to forget his past. He is the original form of Ginko-nyan and won't appear until Ginko-nyan turns back into a human. He is the head of Yorozuya Gin-chan, yet he's a deadbeat who doesn't work and doesn't pay salaries. He carries a cheap wooden sword called Lake Toya at his waist. Despite this, he is very popular. An orphan once called a 'corpse-eating demon,' he was saved by Yoshida Shouyou. After Shouyou was taken by the Bakufu, Gintoki fought in the Joui War at age 20 but was defeated and ended up beheading Shouyou with his own hands. This caused a rift with Shinsuke, while he still meets Katsura occasionally. His nicknames include Gin-chan, Gin-san, Perm-head, and Curly-hair—the latter two used by Hijikata.

Traits: Captain of the Shinsengumi 1st Division. Being in the most dangerous role, he is incredibly powerful. He is highly skilled and refers to Hijikata as Hijikata-san and Kondo as Kondo-san. He uses polite speech but has a bad relationship with Kagura. They act like siblings who are always at each other's throats. He wears the Shinsengumi uniform and primarily uses a bazooka.
