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.

Teriyaki Koinku posted:^ I mean, he literally murdered an entire village solely to get Jack's attention. Not to mention he'd definitely try to kill Jack again down the line, if not right when Jack turned his back. Would YOU have spared him?

I was kind of hoping Aku would get a new design. I swear the original Season 5 teaser image made him look like he'd be very different looking. Either way, that crypt scene was so drat intense, and the music was phenomenal. I'm kind of hoping the Daughters nearly kill Jack in the next episode, only for The Scotsman to burst in to save the day with his new minigun leg.

I was expecting Jack to fight them and just kinda slow them down. Tire them out, injure them enough so he can easily escape. But nope, just loving massacred them. That was the most startling and amazing thing in the season so far. I just really hope that Ashi doesn't become a permanent companion to Jack. He should always travel alone, only partnering up with someone for an episode before moving on.

Yeesh, that was hard to watch. The Scotsman was the best part of the episode and he was only there for a few minutes. It's really surprising how much the quality nosedived from the first three episodes which were practically perfect.

I'm hoping it'll be less comical and more terrifying, the one time in the series since the pilot where Aku is played totally serious. First, he's happy for obvious reasons. But then he realizes he's been cowering away for about fifty years for literally no reason. And then he gets angry. He becomes a tidal wave of UNSPEAKABLE EVIL and makes a beeline straight for Jack with enough raw rage that it makes Jack and the Haunted House look like kiddie poo poo. Everything in his path from forests to his own cities get decimated in his wrathful rampage as a great voice booms over the land "I'M COMING FOR YOU, SAMURAAAAI!"

Ashi picking up a soldier and taking out half the army by pushing him is one of the most idiotic things I've seen in the show.

Admittedly not as stupid as the farting dragon. But either way, it's nice to see Jack back in his old costume. Though I admit I did like the bearded look. TheLoneStar fucked around with this message at 05:08 on Apr 30, 2017 |

nerdman42 posted:As funny as it was, I think the episode could have been improved by cutting the whole army/tea ceremony back and forth. Instead, do a shortened version of the tea thing, cut back to Ashi already having destroyed that army, and then put in a slightly longer High Priestsss fight. I feel like the army should've been cut completely, giving more time for the Priestess fight, along with more time for Jack to deal with Red Jack. We would've taken out a Looney Tunes fight sequence and the balance thing wouldn't have felt so rushed. TheLoneStar fucked around with this message at 16:49 on Apr 30, 2017 |

tsob posted:I doubt anyone is thinking he won't finish the job, the question is more whether he'll do it in the past, undoing the future that is Aku (and thus everything and presumably everyone we know), or if instead he'll do it in the present and preserve the future despite Aku's influence. There's also some question over whether he'll survive finishing the job, or whether in surviving he'll simply leave to enjoy the past and pass his role as protector to Ashi or not. It seems like no one entertains the idea that Jack killing Aku in the Past will simply cause a split timeline. One where Aku sends him to the future and one where he's defeated in the past.

Glagha posted:I mean this is nothing new to Samurai Jack. He's, on the reg, just casually slaughtered a few hundred beetle robots before. It's like, his thing. I don't know why it's any different when Ashi does it to some orcs. Jack always has his sword, and usually some kind of help or plan. Like waaay back at the start of the series with the beetle army, he had help from the talking dogs. Here, Ashi did some Looney Tunes style bulldozing and then punched the army to death without receiving a single wound. Jack's never been able to do that.

Literally Kermit posted:I can understand why people hated this episode, which was about two people, who were broken as children because of an ancient shape-shifting master of darkness, having a kiss in the heat of the moment, after nearly dying to a regenerating slug monster. Honestly, my biggest problem was they wasted one of ten episodes of this final season of Samurai Jack on a romance that wasn't really necessary.

I was really hoping The Guardian would appear again. Even if he was dying and Aku finished him off as he arrived.

Going into this after seeing the first nine episodes, the ONE thing I was hoping we could get was an epic showdown between Jack and Aku. But no, it's a comedic skirmish instead that lasts maybe a minute. Honestly the army bit was way more epic, and as cheesy as it was I admit I had a smile on my face the whole time. And Ashi dying was nice, but it just came far too late. It's just so weird to think about; the first three episodes were easily 10/10s, but it all just went downhill after, almost like the last seven episodes were written by a completely different team.
