    I never thought a parody anime like Gintama would partner up with a mobile game like Monster Strike! I hadn't seen Gintama for a while so it was good to see Gin-San and the gang back to their usual stupid stuff again! They did the collaboration so totally well. I'm obviously saying this because I've never actually seen an anime doing a team-up with a mobile game. Normally I'd see the mobile games being advertised by anitubers or YouTube itself whenever it's before the goddamn video starts.... Anyways what I'm elaborating here is that it's nice for a change that Gintama did this kind of thing.Go check it out!
