I often go in with an idea of how I want a piece to look, what I want it to say … or at least what mood I hope to convey through it … But sometimes an image will take off on a completely different tangent.

The new series aired on TV Tokyo and its affiliates for 51 episodes from April 8, 2015, to March 30, 2016, which also aired the previous seasons. It started in the platform on May 13, 2019, [33] and finished with its 704th on June 20 of the same year. The series has been noted for its ability to shift between comedy and drama without a loss of quality. Episodes 100 to 105 were directed by Takamatsu and Yoichi Fujita, while the following episodes are being directed only by Fujita.But it can also be understood that the Moon is rising inside Pema, which then refers to a spiritual experience.

And she does not like me to share details of her life, even though she does not mind sharing details about mine!

The CD soundtrack Gintama The Best received the "Animation Album of the Year award" from the Kinema Junpo's DVD Navigator Japanese magazine.
