Gintama's lack of a dub boils down to the crazy amount of cultural references and wordplay. It's like translating a stand-up comedy routine—really tricky!

Gintama doesn’t have an English dub because the humor and cultural references don’t translate well. Imagine explaining all those puns and jokes!
Honestly, Gintama's charm is in its original Japanese. The voices, jokes, and emotions are just better that way. Trust me, I’ve watched it both ways.
Some parts are dubbed, but not the whole series. Guess they thought sub fans are the real warriors.
