Gintoki Cosplay: I Absolutely Refuse to Lose!

Legend has it that if you cosplay as Gin-san, you can claim you're any white-haired, curly-haired, or red-eyed character.

Pingchuan Ming believed it and went to a convention dressed as Gintoki. When he was stopped for an interview, he was asked, "Excuse me, who are you cosplaying?"

Pingchuan Ming put on his eye mask and answered without thinking: "Gojo○."

He never imagined that one careless remark would draw the attention of a cosplay System, which scolded him for being way too out of character and immediately began a professional cosplay makeover.

Pingchuan Ming: Me?

Pingchuan Ming: I'm cosplaying as Gin-san, and I'm the one who's out of character for cosplaying someone else?

System: Anyway, we're sending all of you for makeovers to boost our performance, damn it!

[Mission target: 100% recognition as a Gintoki cosplayer]

Gintoki: Tch.

System: By the way, the prize pool includes a diabetes immunity buff and an unlimited strawberry parfait voucher.

Gintoki: Let's go, let's go, let's get moving!

Question: You've arrived in Bungo Stray Dogs. To boost your recognition, what do you choose?

A: Join the Port Mafia and become a Mafioso.

B: Join the Armed Detective Agency and become a detective.

C: Join the Special Division for Unusual Powers and become a corporate drone.

Gintoki: What kind of options are these? Damn it, I'm supposed to fill this new world with strawberry parfait!

[Congratulations, you got it right! You have won: Character-exclusive unlimited strawberry parfait cups.]

Sakata Gin○ meets a single dad in Yokohama. Having raised a child himself, he sympathizes and shares his strawberry parfait. The two grow close and agree to head to the big city (Tokyo) to make their way in the world.

Mori, who wants to set up Oda to get a license to operate an ability-based business, but can't find him: ?

There are lots of opportunities in the big city. Gintoki Hachi, version 3.3, applies to teach at Tokyo's Jujutsu High and gets the job. His subject is [Sugar].

As for extracurricular activities, he's here to get rid of heretics. Throw all those old, shameless zero-sugar elders from the higher-ups out the door! (Hurls them away.)

Gojo Satoru: Wow.

However, a huge mishap occurs during the handover, and Gin-san (Pingchuan Ming) draws the hardest mission: 40% of the cosplay completion rating is based on the other characters Gintoki cosplays as in the show.

There is no other choice. The System offers compensation: Whenever you cosplay as another character, you can randomly acquire one of that character's traits.

Gintoki: So you're saying that besides portraying myself, I have to cosplay as Gojo Gintoki, Byakuran○so, Blah Blah, and Blah Blah Blah?

Gintoki (as casually as possible): Well, now that it's come to this, I don't have a choice. By the way, my goal is to stack limitless cursed techniques with the ability to communicate across parallel universes.
