If you want to download certain anime series, like probably Gintama episodes, and has no choice or is forced to download from torrent and you don't know how torrent works, don't worry, just follow the instructions found here in this article. First of all, you will need to install a bittorrent client on your computer. This is a must. Remember, it's bittorrent client, NOT bittorrent server. I recommend you to use utorrent (you can google that for download), because of its very small size, lightweightness, and efficiency.

Once downloaded, install utorrent on your computer. Now, go to your favorite anime torrent websites or anime download sites that provide torrent downloads, and download any torrent you want. The file you download will be a very small file of only a few kilobytes in size with the name ending with .torrent. Let's say the file is for Gintama episode 202, it would look something like "Gintama_episode_202.avi.torrent" or "justanything.torrent". Don't try to play the file just yet! We haven't gotten into the downloading part yet! Now, double-click the .torrent file you've just downloaded just now, say, Gintama ...
... episode 202 like the example above, and it will open with the utorrent program we've just installed earlier on.

You'll then be asked where to save your file. You can change the location or folder on your computer where the file will be downloaded to by clicking the button circled with red on the above picture. After that, just click OK. Now, if you are not blocked by a firewall, your file should start downloading, and you'll be seeing the blue bar (instead of red!).

Wait until 'Status' turns from 'Downloading' to 'Seeding', and the percentage shows 100%. This means your download has finished! You can now go to the folder where the downloaded file is located on your computer, and you can now play the file and watch the episode! Good luck!
