This stack includes all of the Gintama releases. I know there are many other similar stacks but I wanted to make one of my own lol
Also, they are arranged in correct watch order.

Although, there are some things to keep in mind like:-
1) Movie 1 can be watched after 57 episodes of Gintama (season 1)
2) Porori hen adaptation dosen't follows the chronological order of manga. (Read below for more details)
3) Specials can be watched anytime in any order. It dosen't really matters. (except for Jump Festa 2015 Special)

Some more points to note:-

◉ There are in total 21 openings and 30 endings of original Gintama series. When the anime was re-aired they included more 6 openings and 5 endings and called them "Yorinuki". These OP/EDs can't be seen on official anime streaming platforms but you can easily find them on Youtube.

◉ I've added a serious arc list for every Gintama release in this stack because I've noticed that most of people like to refer to them as they progress. (Select list mode to view them if you haven't already)

◉ Gintama manga includes One-shots and chapter(s) which weren't adapted into the anime. (I'll update information about them soon)

If this stack was useful, then please give me a feedback. I'd be glad to know if it was of any help :)
Also, if there's still some confusion regarding the watch order or anything else then you can ask me about it...

Everything related to the Monster Strike franchise I could find, in broadcast order.

I just like doing it my own way sometimes

In this stack I will also list all arcs that have at least 3 episodes (with a couple exceptions for 2-episode arcs). Arcs listed as (S) can be considered "serious arcs". Arcs will be listed with both their overall Gintama episode number, and their in-season episode number between brackets.

Structure:
1. The main Gintama canon, with all projects that directly adapt manga chapters (or other sources).
2. (Non-canon) side content that is worth a watch either during the main series, or afterward.
3. The recap/compilation movie series "Gintama on Theater 2D".
4. Jump Festa and other secials that could a fun watch
5. Ads, PV's and other collabs

I will also try to answer any weird questions related to the series in the specific entries, but let it be known that a lot of these will actually be answered through the show itself!
For example, "Why does every subsequent season have a symbol instead of a number next to the name?" is a question answered right at the first episode of S2.

Be sure to also check out my Spotify playlist with every OP/ED/Insert song for the series: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/1UXKjDN5dY3mf89IiBlmou?si=8ffb65141a3c4e07

Note: "Yorinuki Gintama-San" was a series that featured high definition re-runs of 51 episodes of the first Gintama season. This series contained 6 original OP's and ED's on top of using the Benizakura Movie themes as an OP/ED set. All the OP's and ED's are viewable on Youtube.
