Gin Tama, Vol. 2

The Yorozuya odd-jobs trio take on a run of unlikely gigs: Gintoki helps an escaped convict reconcile with the daughter he left behind, crosses swords in a duel with the love-struck chief of the Shinsengumi's secret police, and tracks down the childhood sweetheart of a dying man — only to find she has seen far better days. Between the jobs, the alien-occupied Edo setting keeps skewering samurai and shonen conventions alike.
