There are all the shonens with the powerscaling systems and training arcs and then there’s Gintama where the main character has vaguely the same strenght physically at the start of the series as at the end. The only real difference is that at the end he has a found family, but overall Gintoki has been a monster since episode 1 but it doesn’t feel like it because Gintama, while has interesting fights, is really not about fighting alone
Sure, Gintoki is one of the strongest people in the entire world, including other planets. But that doesn’t really matter when he needs to pay bills or clean up his mess, or when there is toilet paper missing. What good does strenght mean in mundane life?
Gintama rips you apart and leaves you on the ground to face the fact that mundane is beautiful. That even if you’re lazy and irresponsible there is still community for you, there are people who love you, who will scream at you and grumble but help you. It forces you to understand that no matter your personal strenght, the community is always stronger. That people will be upset with you and still be friends with you. Idk. Therapy for me personally
Why would you need a training arcs when you are already perfect as you are?
