Samurai Jack

The silent episode with the haunted house and JUMP GOOD

Lulu, sweet thing.

I love me a good tragic antagonist, especially since they spent the entire episode focusing on him and only having Jack show up at the very end of it

>>78011632
Technically Jack was the antagonist of that episode.

>The Bounty Hunters ep
>Best of the best
>Spend whole episode planning
>Jack proceeds to fucking destroy in the time it takes for a single drop of water to hit the ground

oh jesus that haunted house episode was genuinely unsettling

Haunted House

Jack in Egypt

This show was so based.

>>78011798
>>78011632
Why are the villain focused episodes so based.
Hope we get a new one with the revival.

Jack and the prince and princess aka Jack saving moth Illana and moth Lance in a Star Wars theme episode

>>78011683
Nah, Aku was still the antagonist since he forced the situation to happen in the first place.

>>78011942
That episode is to SYM-Bionic Titian what the episode of the Power Puff Girls where they ended up in a destroyed future is to Samurai Jack.

Because Gendy spends the entire show with Jack killing or defeating people left and right, but people kind of dont care for who they are....

Them he makes episodes focusing on them, so you know that they arent just mindless things.

X9 episode WAS ENTIRELY MADE to show that "its a robot" isnt that great of an excuse to dont feel anything when they are killed.

It poked fun at the idea that you can kill robots on any gore way, and that its doesnt matter if they have feelings, feel pain or are affraid.

Same goes with the bounty hunters. The entire episode was "hey, these guys that Jack is always fighting? They have tjeir own stories, motives and objectives too!"

>>78011798
Came here just to say this, that episode is just amazing. Also the haunted house and the Lulu episode.

>>78012063
The bounty hunter episode was nice but it rubs bme the wrong way how inconsistent jack is. How is the jack from that episode the same jack who couldnt catch his hat fluttering in the wind or the same jack who got punked by the imakandi

Jack and the Travelling Creatures will always be my favorite.

Definitely not to be confused with Jack and the Creature, which is like the next episode. I'm assuming that episode was as shit as it was because Genndy and the crew were focusing so much on the previous one.

Also if the show is presumably going to be 16:9 now, does that mean that we won't get those constant shifts between fullscreen and letterboxed?

Not that I minded that, I just don't know if it would work as well with the new aspect ratio.

>>78012180
The Imakandi are no joke though.

>>78012374
Neither was 5(6?) legendary bounty hunters.

Jack didnt even put up a fight with the imakandi

>>78012180
The episodes weren't linear so the Jack you watch is not necessarily close to the skill of the one in the previous episode.

Well lad, here are my power levels of Samurai Jack

>elder gods tier: the ancient gods/the primordial darkness

>god tier: Aku/The Guardian/Samurai Jack - Jack is here with his magic sword, and maybe Scotman.

>hero of legends tier: Jack without magic sword, Scotman, The King Spartan, Elder Monk, Demongo

>elite warrior tier: X9, The 5 Bounty Hunters, Dome of Doom gladiators, The Ninja.

>above avarage warrior tier: Da Samurai, most bounty hunters and battle droids

>ordinary tier: talking dogs, the baby

>>78012180
Simple he was able to accrue enough experience points to advance his level.

>>78011180
Jack and The Spartan
It was even better since I had read Miller's 300 beforehand/

now that Samurai Jack is getting another season, am I the only one who think its pretty overrated?

Get out

Samurai Jack is art. I think the first episode gets overlooked a lot. It's pacing, music, and the very first fight with Aku was beautifully done. Remember when Aku first assaulted japan and you hear those gongs hitting when he just laughs at the archer assault? One of the first of many memorable moments in my book

Jack and the Lava Monster.

I love the how the first 1/3 is essentially just Jack travelling through a barren wasteland, the howling wind coupled with the beckoning calls of the viking hero making it incredibly ominious and building up tension to the 2/3 where he navigates the volcano's traps

One of the best examples of the show's mastery of pacing

I remember finding the cannibal robot episode quite unnerving back when I was a kid.

>>78012994
>>78012913
I always found Jack's world to be really weird.
Some places would be incredibly advanced, some place were advanced and dystopic, some mythical and ancient, and others yet more contemporary.
The Scotsman himself just felt like a character out of time.

It was allover the place; a mishmash of various fictions.

>>78013463
With all the fucking time portals everywhere i wouldnt be surprised

>>78013555
Hmm. That actually makes a lot of sense.

Jack in Egypt always makes me laugh

>>78011180
Hopefully they release a remastered edition of the old episodes. I just want to watch these in HD

>>78013463
I can't remember but was Jack always on the same planet?

>>78013463
it's aku, where aku's reach went he punished those into obscurity and poverty, much like 3rd world countries of today when compared to the united states or other more advanced societies. notice how pretty much any city that had any technological advancement at all is either destroyed by aku, getting destroyed by aku, or controlled by aku.

made sense to me, he had like 6000 years to impoverish who he wished and enrich what he liked. Europe suffered pretty damn hard it looks like from aku judging by all the medieval looking architecture in the poorer places.

>>78013918
Yes.

The talking dogs mention that Earth has become "topsy-turvy" as a result of Aku opening the planet up to the galaxy and its assorted whatchamacallits.

It'd be interesting if in the new series he ever found himself stranded onboard a big spaceship

>>78013868
remastered and i'd prefer a better order. ending with the baby is just bad. the best episode to end on is the one where jack actually finds a portal and is beaten down by that blue thug that gets a vision of future jack.

i think it would be pretty kick ass if the series started off with jack looking just like that just to illustrate that all these years we have been waiting for his glorious return he was still fighting the good fight.

it's actually weird this announcement came
i actually gave up in ever coming back or getting a movie on the 10 year marking of its end. sep 2014
1 year later i found out that my hopes died to soon

Just stay cautiously optimistic, we have no idea if this miracle wasn't caused by a monkey's paw

>>78011180
The 3 archers have to be my favorite

>>78014196
It was nice that every couple of episodes they had one where Jack desperately struggled in a fight.
the 3 archers
the 4 elite robots
the 3 egyptian monsters
the lion hunters
the blue guy with the time portal

Fucking hyped. And it's on adult swim so it's gonna be GOAT.

Some days/weeks/months you go out and you're totally on the ball and do everything perfectly.

Then some days/weeks/months, it's like you can't get the simplest shit straight and everything is going wrong.

Aku is going to some pretty extreme lengths to make Jack think he's gay

I hope we get more moments where Aku tricks Jack by shapeshifting into a woman. Not really to get off on it, but because I enjoy Aku trolling Jack to complete paranoia and insanity.

I'm just hoping they have at least some enemies who aren't robots.
Not that the show needs anime style blood jets, but half the time he's fighting aliens and mutants. They could have green blood or some shit.

Even when I was younger it never made sense why an enemy who has never shown any signs of being a robot is suddenly a robot once jacks cuts into it.

It can, so long as they don't actually get killed. I mean, it's preferable to be perfect everyday when people ate trying to kill you, but fucking up occasionally isn't necessarily an instant death sentence.

Hell, you can do "everything right" and still get killed when your life is in danger everyday.

I've never seen the show, but I loved Dexter's Laboratory and enjoyed Sym-Bionic Titan. I'm hesitant to download it because as much as I like Genndy's work, I'm not much of an action person. Action sequences tend to bore me. I'm someone who watches The Avengers for the quips and Evangelion for the character drama, and thinks Star Wars is overrated and mediocre.

>>78016042

Aku was changed to "Abu" in Brazil because "ku" (or cu) means anus.
So everytime Jack shouted "AKU" it would be like "AH BUTTHOLE".

>>78016281

>>78017186
It's part of why I love Aku.
9 times out of 10 he's a step ahead of Jack, just waiting to bust out a joke.

>>78016066
Well, this pacing should intrigue you. Very Kurosawa-esque.

>>78017932

that's what makes a good evil honestly. A lot of villians from 80s-90s area had terrible records against their foes which made them seem like a joke. Although Akus plans to kill jack usually fail, aku usually outsmarts jack and generally succeeds in his goals making him more threatening to the audience.

It also makes jacks victories against aku all the more sweet.

Besides Ultrabots and X9, the 80`s style robot group stood out for me.

>>78018043

Only when they're not terrifying.

The entire episode where the two of them decide to fight "fair" was absolutely hilarious.

And then there's the episode where Aku gets his hands on Jack's sword, and Aku starts taunting him about how he can never hide because Aku can smell his blood.

Rarely do you get a villain/hero relationship that works so well in comedy and conflict.

A good one.

>>78018499
I liked the show because it was about a Samurai fucking shit up. The Samurai fad was big and I loved that shit..
Now that I go back to it, I guess I like it now because it's a show that's artsy without feeling like it's being pretentious. The show feels genuine enough that you look at it and say "Hey, I guess the creators really liked X thing and are paying homage and having fun with it." The funny moments, the grandiose moments, the emotional moments never felt forced. Add to that both a hero and a villain that are quintessential (Sword Wielding Hero vs Evil Overlord), yet both are endearing enough to carry the show.

>>78018771
No such thing as a good show if Samurai Jack isn't amongst them.

Are you going to dodge giving a name to avoid having your fave shitted on?

I love the later interactions between Jack and Aku, when it just gets downright petty and they almost seem to like each other.

Anyone familiar with Lone Wolf and Cub? How do you think they handled Aku's rise to power?

The voice actor who played the Lava Monster also voiced Grevious in Clone Wars.

>>78018683
I remember watching that episode when it first aired. It was fucking terrifying. Jack running from Aku, who was going all at it. Jack getting caught in a zombie horde and having to fight them all. Finally, Aku growing to almost twice Jack's height and going apeshit with the sword.

Then that great, sweet moment when the sword does nothing and Aku's flames go out.

So I was reading through the wiki for some reason about Aku and his origins and I noticed that it mentions that Jack's father fought Aku back when he was a spiky forest or evil. Not only that, but he fought it while wearing "magical armour". I was just thinking that it would make sense that Jack and his father would have a similar silhouette and I read something about Jack's father being alive in the care of the elder gods. So either Jack has armour now for some reason, possibly once belonging to his father or we're about to see some family bonding. Or both.

Sweet! Okay I've been looking for this samurai Jack special/movie whatever for a good bit. I swear there was a movie that came out that depicted how Jack was raised and the war that got him flung into the future. Anyone know the name?

>>78022316

First episode?

>>78022320
Shit, I feel like an idiot Ha
Thanks budd

>>78012577
yes, yes, yes you are the only creature in existence that doesn't like samurai jack. you should be ashamed. get out

>>78022336

Technically the pilot and the first two episodes are a movie

>>78022381
Actually I'm watching these right now and they aren't what I was looking for. I'll keep watching though

>>78012994
I get this terrible feeling that if the show is revived and we get episodes like this, people will bitch about how the show is too slow

>>78022546
Did it get such complaints on initial run?

>>78022546
I was actually afraid of there being a new season, until I found its gonna be on Adult Swim.

The final episode will be a twist. It will be revealed that Aku never existed, and it's all been one bad acid trip. Jack's dad is trying to calm Jack down, but Jack keeps referring to him as Aku, and all the things he's done was just him going around killing people and talking to himself.

>>78022741

Just because they are on the same category, it doesnt mean that they have the exact same strenght. I would put individual imakandi in a low position on it.

So far, I guess that it could goes like this:

Elder Gods Tier:

God Tier:

>Aku
>Portal Guardian
>Jack with his sword
>Maybe Scotman
>Hunter Pack of Imakandi
>Eldest Master Monk
>Minions of Set - that can only be killed by elder gods.

Heroes of Legends Tier:

>Jack without Magic sword
>Scotman
>The Spartan King
>Lava Monster
>Demongo
>Ultrabots - They were wrecking the shit out of Jack, but mostly because he wasnt physiccally able to cut trouth them - I dont see them as stronger than the Spartan King for example.
>Three Blind Archers
>Solitary Imakandi, probably at the bottom of the list


Elite Warrior Tier:

>X9
>The 5 Bounty Hunters
>Dome of Doom gladiators
>The Ninja
>Shaolin Monks

Above Avarage Warrior Tier:

>Da Samurai
>Most bounty hunters and battle robots.

Ordinary Tier:

>Talking dogs
>Avarage citizen

Holly shit....its incredible how high is the power level of the characters on this show, its like almost everybody is some kind of one man army.

The family was unaware they themselves were mechanical lifeforms, only feasting on "the mother" when her face was revealed to be robotic. Who's to say they weren't originally people who underwent some sort of memory-erasing unwilling roboticization?

What if their story about being "survivors" of a raid was true, and they woke up after being experimented on, perfectly ordinary but having a violent taste for metal?

Doubt it. I'm pretty sure they built up Lulu to be a woman just so they could reveal she's a dog for a little laugh.

>>78023493

I don't know why people think the show would be greatly improved if Jack got all covered in blood and viscera every battle, instead of oil. The whole thing would come off edgy as fuck

Jacks dad strait gets his sword from fucking benevolent elder gods who than give him armor and a flying cloud.
it was so fucking cool

>>78023783
I think people just don't want those clearly human/alien/meatbag characets to suddenly reveal themselves to be robots when Jack cuts them. Robots in general should still show up, but no more of these humans or with wires inside their heads.

The objectively correct answers are:

Jack And The Three Monks-The one where he climbs the mountain to renew his will and purpose

Jack And The Zombies-Where he faces aku and army of zombies and nearly dies

>>78029502

You might check if you want. Aku's VA is pretty similar to Mako, and the voice of Jack is simply beautiful. Its from te same guy who makes the voice of Superman/Optmus Prime/Han Solo/Cosmo and Him from PPG.

Dude fought Jack to a standstill for 3 days straight. Jack only has an edge in versatility due to his extensive training. Not to mention The Scotsman has earned an obscene bounty as well.

>>78038419
Maybe, because I'm not sure if he could be the ones like Aku.

Probably he could tho, if his sword can affect him.

I cant remember if it was an actual episode or some sort of short, but the first time I saw Jack was when he fights an endless army of robot insect in some canyon or something. shit was cool

It's not unreasonable to assume as much. Given that it's appears to have similar properties to Jack's blade and the two cannot harm each other.

>>78038767
That's like, the second or third episode of the show.

Where's our AU episode where Aku landed where scotland would be rather than japan, the scotsman gets thrown back in time, and Aku looks like Cernunnos rather than a shogun

>Watch Jack vs Demongo
>Hear this fuckers voice for the first time
God, what a perfect blend of grating and hilarious.
Does this fucker ever show up again? I know he was in that Fusion Falls thing.

>>78040215
Nope.

>>78040215
Dies for good at the end of the episode.

>>78040215
Dies.

Which is sad, he was said to be the most powerful servant of Aku.

>>78038176
NO JUMP GOOD

>>78040215
Demongo was female.

>>78040390
Actually wait...I just looked it up and he's male.

What the hell I thought it was a girl all these years

>>78036968
Great episode. I remember it from when I was a kid.

>No!

God I love Aku

>>78040951
I like how Aku kills him before saying no.

>>78039557
wasn't there a japanese folk tale like that?

>yfw a tumblrite is on the new staff team

Archaeologist dogs
Fucking genius

>>78035874
I think the ninja deserves hero of legend status

Jack had to put in a little effort against him

>>78038962
That. Would be amazing.

Poor Jack

>>78044316
Nothing he can do now. That alimony can destroy any great man. Jack might as well JUST.

>>78021511
Jack's too noble for it to be a proper Alien homage. Because I'd want to see the breakfast table scene, but with Jack's sword as the chestburster. Then Jack rises out of the bisected corpse and breakfast table, head-to-toe in blood, staring down the guards and darting away the moment they stop freaking the fuck out.

>Prison spaceship
>crew refuse to take away team on board because the cargo they've picked up is fucking Jack, and they're all dead the moment the ship's door opens.

It's a fun idea, but you either make Jack monstrous by making him kill panicked and helpless people, or you take the horror out by making the crew armed and at least partly competent.

>>78038419
I would even argue Scottsman has a different type of versatility in firearms and explosives.

>>78022157
Did you read the same fic as me?

>>78038419
The difference being that jack wasnt fighting to death. Jack was holding back

>>78045393
Bullshit. I could just as easily argue that Scotsman was holding back.

>>78013805
Because he's so hopelessly fucked and then is saved by literal DeM?

Long ago on a distant channel, I Synder, shape shifting lord of terrible tv, unleashed unspeakably bad cartoons. But a foolish show, wielding a good plot stood fort to oppose me. Before the final blow was struck, I tore open a portal and flung him into the future, where my bad cartoons are law....

>>78045486
But Snyder's long gone. Also I forget but didn't SJ stop getting new episodes under Samples or whoever the guy was before Snyder?

>>78045533
It was just a shitty improv based off of what I remembered of Aku's intro and Snyder because hes a shithead

>>78044977
Fair enough.
>>78045393
After all the shit the Scotsman pulled and 3 days of straight up trying to kill each other?

Bull fucking shit.

>>78029750
Well since this would be pastiche 1 million and 1 I think it'd be fine if we just have Jack slinking around a ship spookily ganking people

>>78045393
>Jack would hold back for 3 straight days
No
