Thread on why Kagura from Gintama is my favorite Female Character of All Time:
She perfectly encapsulates Gintama, being the only one out of the trio who isn't from Edo, she tries to interact with people around her and this is exactly what the show is about. It focuses on relations and interactions of different people from varied backgrounds coming together
Out of the main three she's the most progressed/developed, while Gintama isn't an anime about character development, Kagura certainly develops alot and more layers of depth are added to her through the little comedy/mini serious arcs.
Sorachi (the mangaka) wrote this about her:
Sorachi (the mangaka) wrote this about her:
Her development is clearly seen through arcs like Feigned Illness, Umbizou arc, Memory loss arc, Independence Day episode and many other standalone episodes. The scene where she gives Pachi and Gin chocolate for valentine in Gintama 2011 is a perfect example of how she progressed
Her Personality is so unique and awesome, specially for a main female heroine. She's unabashedly herself; somewhat dense, straightfoward, and crass. The way her relationship to Gin and Shin affect and change her is masterful characterization by Sorachi.
Despite the strength of her personality, you can see the impressionable, more fragile (and somewhat naive) child underneath.
The perfect example for this is the the Umbrella Episode. Which depicted the truest meaning of her friendship with the Gintoki and Shinpachi

Kagura blows all shounen heroines away by miles. She doesn't fall into the generic female troupes like Tsundere, Yandere, Kundere, Etc.
She is her own unique precious thing and there isn't that much female characters that can rival her

"I choose my own battlefields. Not by blood, but by my heart! I stand on the battlefield to protect what's important to me. And if anyone stands in my way, I don't care if it's one of my kind, my brother or anyone else...I'll crush them all!"
This quote which shows how much she learned from Gintoki shall mark the end of this short thread.
