Stupid question but you think those demon babies have accelerated aging, or did Jack just have a really really really long bike ride.

Now that I think about it, Jack's childhood training probably never covered the whole "taking a human life thing" since it was you're going to kill the ultimate evil.

But then again, when he totally owned that group of bounty hunters in the snow, three were human. A russian, a black guy, and a southern gent.

Then again, Legend of Korra also had a really good first episode.

Nope, they were actually robots too. I believe the only human Jack killed in the series was the old viking warrior that was cursed and became a rock monster.

this sounds like citation needed.

The bounty hunters, not the rock monster.

Speaking of that episode, I wonder if that will also play a role.

At the end of the episode the old king is recounting the fight.

If I could have only one thing absolutely happen in this season, it'd be Da Samurai making a dramatic comeback, slicing up a bunch of Aku's minions and being almost as skilled as Jack.

But I don't see it actually happening.

and maybe the baby.

Just hire PlatinumGames and make a MGR reskin with Samurai Jack. instant money.

One change.

Change the setting to a stylized ancient japan. Also a boss fight with a not-Jetstream Sam with his theme song played with traditional japanese instruments .

Why is Aku also going insane, he's a piece of cosmic evil that killed the dinos , spent millions of years as a evil goo lake in Japan, then spent a few hundred(thousand?) years waiting for Jack to appear.

Appearntly the Guardian will be addressed.

Jack's most dangerous enemies were probably the Imoncandi as you mentioned. Demongo the Soul Collector, the demon that served Aku that could summon the souls of all he had slain to fight for him. And the Minions of Set, the quasi divine creatures that Jack had no way to beat. (They were faster then him, stronger then him, his magic sword did not work on them as they regenerated and there were three of them.) and had to rely on an ancient prophecy that made it so that a god intervened on his behalf and destroyed them for him.

The Sirens also got Jack Brent Worthington.

Hemingway To Go! posted:

My wonder is if he gets the sword back or if he somehow gains a different way to kill Aku
And if they'll do a flashback on how he lost the sword, because it must have been one hell of an adventure to end in him losing the world's last hope.

Jack forgot he had the "Pray" option and when he finally does it the gods give him other divine sword, but his time it's an hf sword.

Weird idea: tie some of the drama into Jack's real name. Either reveal that he's been fighting so long that he can't remember what his original name was, or end the show with him back in the past and his family calling him by his real name or something.

So would you say.

His memory is broken. The truth goes unspoken. He's even forgotten his name

Jesus. I didn't expect that!

They spent way too much time characterizing the daughters for that to be it, so I think the three that fell survived.

Ashi, at the very least.

Where you get that name? I thought they were all nameless.

edit for more stuff : OMG doing stuff on an all white background. The wolf is real.

Did anyone feel this episode kiiiiiinda pushed the limits of Jack's own abilities? Takes a knife to the gut, bleeds while going down a river for who knows how long, takes the knife out, waits a while before doing a hasty, primitive stitch job, and then fought six well-trained ladies in the snow in his underwear.

It does imply that time had passed since then with his wound having healed, but...it didn't seem like the assassins took long to find him? I'll to watch it again, the snow was probably meant to imply that months had passed.

Well if he doesn't age maybe he also has very weak regen and invulnerability. Aku needs more skill points in time magic.

How do we know the wolf is real, could have been a Jack's is bleeding out hallucination which means Jack killed that animal while acting like a wolf.

Honestly I was thinking the entire blue bleeding out sequence was a dream because of how freaky it was until the moment the wolf brought him chicken. Dreams can't come up with chicken.

I already told you Jack hunted it himself. Got on all fours and everything.

Or maybe the chicken is a lie too.

Aku prob tosses randos through time on the reg, just to give himself a little surprise in the future.

You know considering the first season had Jack try a science type of TT(launching an escape pod at the nose of a ship just as it goes light speed), Jack really should have spent 50 years making a giant science machine city.
