Honestly, it's probably because Gintama's humor and cultural references are super specific to Japan. Translating all those jokes and puns into English would be a nightmare!

From what I heard, an English dub was actually attempted but it didn't quite hit the mark. The original Japanese voices are just too iconic!

Let's be real, some anime just shine brighter in their original language. Gintama is one of them!
