This special is a set of short comedy stories involving Gintoki and his equally-broke sidekicks Shinpachi and Kagura. One day, Gintoki and his comrades are out viewing the spring flowers when suddenly the Shinsengumi appear, arguing that Gintoki has taken their flower-viewing spot. Gintoki's team and the Shinsengumi must then battle for the right to sit in that spot by using a violent version of rock paper scissors.

Where it came from
The Gintama: Jump Festa 2005 Special was produced by Sunrise to generate momentum for the Gintama anime series ahead of its official television broadcast. Premiering at the annual Jump Festa event in 2005, the special served as a proof-of-concept animation that introduced audiences to the chaotic, Edo-period setting and the eccentric cast led by Gintoki Sakata. Its inclusion in the festival was a strategic move by Shueisha and Sunrise to showcase the manga's transition into the animation medium.
The design and animation aesthetic mirrored the satirical, genre-bending tone established by Hideaki Sorachi in the original manga. By blending historical samurai tropes with anachronistic science fiction elements, the production team aimed to capture the rapid-fire comedic timing and fourth-wall-breaking humor that defines the series. It was well-received by fans at the event, effectively demonstrating that Sunrise could balance the series' crude slapstick with its moments of intense action, which helped secure the long-running television adaptation that followed shortly after.
