gintama

A slice-of-life comedy and (occasionally) action manga and anime written and illustrated by Sorachi Hideaki. Which follows the story of a trio of characters who take up odd jobs in the retro futuristic incarnations of Edo.

Notable for its tendency of breaking the fourth wall as well as frequent jabs on recurring anime tropes.
