Summary:
The story GIntama starts at the age of the end of samurai when aliens race known as Amantos attacked Earth. The samurai of the country fought on with the Amantos for many battles.The Shogunate(the government) felt that there was no match for the superior technology of the Amantos, and quickly surrender. Hence earth was invaded by the Aliens.
20 years later, due to the migration of aliens and technology exchange, Japan had became an advanced city, But due to colonization by the aliens, The Amantos viewed human as a lower class individual. In this era, the samurai spirit is slowly forgotten by people.
The story focuses on a forgotten samurai, Sakata Gintoki and his partner Shimura Shinpachi, and a teenage alien girl: Kagura. All three are “free-lancers” who search for work in order to pay the monthly rent, which usually goes unpaid anyway….hahahaha 
Main Characters:
Sakata Gintoki:
Sakata Gintoki, the main character of Gintama. He has naturally permed hair, which he blames for his lacking love-life. He rides a motor scooter and wields a wooden sword, which has “Lake Toya” craved onto it. He is a “free-lancer”, meaning he’ll take any job for nearly any price. He enjoys reading Sh?nen Jump comics and he has a sweet tooth and will go into crazed combat if he does not have his sweets (he has diabetics).
In the past, he was a Joi (someone who attempted to overthrow Amanto to protect the government)…detailed..read the online manga comics in this site^^
Shimura Shinpachi:
Shinpachi works under Gintoki because he was attracted by the Gintoki’s spirit of samurai. However it seems more like he is just trying to help Gintoki pay the rent than to learn. Shinpachi is the captain of the “Otsu Imperial Guard,” a pop-singer’s fan club.
Shinpachi first met Gintoki after he was tripped by an alien ambassador. Gintoki beats up the ambassador and his guards to get revenge for his spilled parfait. Soon after, Gintoki framed Shinpachi for the crime, which somehow led to him saving Shimura Tae (Otae), Shinpachi’s sister, from being added to an alien’s illegal night club .

Kagura:
Kagura is an alien from the “Yato Clan,” one of the strongest races in existence. Despite her alien heritage, she looks like a normal human and talks with a Chinese accent. She can stop Gintoki’s motor scooter single-handedly and has an umbrella that is bullet-proof and can fire bullets from the tip. Her stomach knows no bounds and she apparently loves to eat sukonbu.
She originally came to Earth to earn money. Because of her immense strength, she took to fighting for a gang. After she was told to kill a few people, she tried to escape from the gang and was almost run over by Gintoki’s motor scooter. He liberated her, and she forced him to let her join his free-lancer business. She sleeps in the closet of Gintoki’s home.
