Gintama's Yoshiwara Arc Gets Film Remake on Netflix in 2026

Netflix has secured the global streaming rights to Gintama the Movie 2026: Yoshiwara in Flames, landing on the platform August 27, 2026. The film is a theatrical remake of the "Yoshiwara in Flames" arc from the long-running Gintama anime series, produced by Bandai Namco Pictures and directed by Naoya Andou.

The Yoshiwara in Flames arc is one of the series' most celebrated story beats—a high-stakes, emotionally dense run that fans have been waiting to see adapted into film form. Bringing it to Netflix globally means the story reaches viewers who may have fallen behind the anime's 369 episodes, or who prefer the theatrical format. The timing also signals continued confidence in Gintama as a property worth investing in, nearly two decades after the manga's serialization began.
