Death is failure :geno:

I rewatched episodes 1 and 2 today in preparation for this, and that was something they were taught in their training.

And holy poo poo, did Jack ever stop pulling his punches. That was brutal.

As a quick question, loving the show so far, but is like Aku totally aware that he will die/lose if he fights Jack and that's why he's hiding in a giant fire castle or something? It sounded like when he pitched Jack into the future it was totally understanding he was boned if he fought fairly.

He lost the first confrontation, and Jack has the only weapon that can defeat him. So he thought that if he tossed Jack into the future he'd have plenty of time to prepare, but even that wasn't enough as Jack just mulched his way through hordes of robots and bounty hunters.

So eventually he decided to just try to wait Jack out, and that isn't working either.

Also, this is who Jack was, and who he still is, and what I expect the next episode or two to try to show us:

We (and Jack, and Ashi) will see precisely why Jack's fight wasn't futile, and why Jack must go on.

I think you're spot on with this. The show definitely seems to be building us up for a moment where Jack has to be convinced that even though innocents have suffered due to his struggle with Aku, many more have been inspired to rise up and fight back as best they can.
