what went so wrong?

Absolutely nothing

Mako died, and that seems to be just about it.

I'm hoping to see an allusion to da samurai by the end of this, I liked that guy.

It didn't come sooner to save animation.

>>90885672
Nothing, Anon. This has been perfect

>>90885672
Waifu got killed in the second episode

Other than that, I love it so far

>>90885672
very little, Aku on the couch is my only complaint

>>90885672
Nothing. Baldwin is no Malp, but I'm actually starting to love his voice for Aku the more I hear it.

>>90885672
Your mother asks every day

>>90885672
Aku's new voice is somewhat painful to listen too; it feels very forced.

Other than that it's been fucking top-notch so far.

I don't know. You tell me

For him? He forgot his purpose.

It's even better, Aku wasn't even bad.

Mako is dead.

Otherwise nothing worth getting your panties in a twist over.

- Unspeakable cosmic evil landed on Earth
- The Emperor accidentally gave demon-like form to the cosmic evil
- The cosmic evil killed the Emperor and enslaved the empire and the rest of the Earth and even civilizations from other planets
- Jack tried defeating the evil demon Aku but got sent to the future where the evil that is Aku is law
- all time portals back to Jack's time were destroyed
- Jack lost his sword, the only known weapon that could defeat Aku

A lot of shit went really wrong.

>>90885672
For jack? Everything.

For us? Nothing.

>>90885672
He's forgotten his purpose.

Greg Baldwin's Aku voice is fucking terrible. Deny it all you want, you know it is. I've heard better aku impersonations on youtube ffs.

Jack was a mistake
he couldn't beat Aku when he was literally trained for his entire life to beat him it literally took me one to two days to beat Aku and i didn't spend my entire life training to kill him
not only that but he got himself transported to the future and even then he fucked up by not killing Aku or going back when he had the chance
and to make it even worse he lost the sword and let Aku reign for 50 years
seriously he shamed his and my ancestors by this display why didn't he kill himself to cleanse us from this shame?

>>90887663
cause you were the cunt that started it all

>>90887379
Legit Aku kinda of sounds like a shitty George Lopez impression. That's okay with me though, if I don't think too hard about it.

Hey unlike him i actually beat Aku and gave us peace for 50 years or so
i got beaten when i was old as hell and Aku realized that if i got to my sword i would btfo him which is why he targeted me first
Jack doesn't age and he still lost so no excuse for this shamefur display

>>90887960
in the end, you were the cunt that started it all
>failed to provide a good life for his son
>got your hoe killed
>still fucking lost

>>90887663
You're also the entire reason Jack had to train to beat Aku in the first place.

Both in creating Aku and not finishing the job a few years later.

>>90888051
How was i supposed to know he wasn't dead or was going to show up in a few years?
Jack is that you why the fuck are you shitposting here instead of trying to save us?
What a failure of a son couldn't even beat Aku

Muttering the lyrics to his theme song is kinda dumb.

Nigga it was more like 10. Your fat ass wife gave birth during the battle and then he came back a few years later. You didn't accomplish shit except to delay the inevitable

everything else is fucking perfect aces

>>90888158
if jacks father killing aku only put him away for 10 years then what hope does jack have trying to kill aku

>>90885691
>Mako died

This. And the fact that we have no idea what Jack is really up to lately. The action sequences have been great, but I'm not really sure what his motive is.

>has to be guilt tripped by ghosts to fight Aku's minions

that's more than you can say for Jack who let Aku reign for over a thousand years

>>90888187
None, that's why it's pointless. Then again, Jack's stupid father only beat him, and then sealed him in a tree trunk and then fucked off to rebuild his kingdom. Shoulda thrown the fucking thing in a wood chipper

>>90888207
10 years. That's not long enough for you to get it up, you dumb old fart. You should have had a shit ton of kids, like that crazy cultist lady, and trained them all to kill Aku.

>WHAT MEME PHRASE MEMED!!?

>How was i supposed to know he wasn't dead or was going to show up in a few years?
Because you literally locked him in a jar and knew he was gonna bust out eventually. Instead of finding a way to kill him forever, you were content to just sit on your ass and let your son take the job while you did diddly dick.

>>90888227
Anon are you okay are you having a stroke?

>>90888231
Coulda went to Egypt and had Ra blast his ass with eye lasers.

>jack is traumatized by having killed a real human bean
He's been murdering the shit out of people for decades, this shouldn't phase him at all in the slightest

But, I do like that they made the assassins both female and Asian. Since jack was raised in an extremely traditional culture I imagine this was done purposefully to throw him off his game as much as possible.

Monk told me everything was okay and i believed him was that was a mistake okay besides i was already old as fuck when i fought with Aku and nobody knew he was going to get out so don't blame that on me
>>90888276
>Trusting anybody not Japanese
That's treason and we're sending you to the execution block

>>90888287
Bounty hunters are.
And the robots in the show are arguably just as much people as anyone else, they're self aware. Almost like they're only made into robots for censorship reasons, but that would be silly.

>>90885709
To be fair, animation had been in a ghetto before the Nicktoons and CN What a Cartoon eras, so there's hope yet for a new renaissance of funny or impressive cartoons that aren't autistic color spam or political propaganda.

>>90888319
>hope you enjoy the execution block
Nigga you dead as shit and your kingdom is a mound of rubble overgrown with weeds

>>90888325
>Bounty hunters are
They got better

>>90888278
I'm tired of this fucking "Actually, um, Jack has killed people before..." discussion on this board.

We all get what they were going for thematically since the show is allowed to be more violent. It's a crossing the rubicon moment, where both we and Jack have to be honest with what living and fighting in this world is about.

Even if he has killed before in the series, it's made perfectly clear he thought he was fighting robots again. The discover that you're not would fuck with anyone.

Would you rather it be shilled and politically correct with flash animation and "hip memes"?

I think if the worst part of it is a replacement for a deceased actor, then it is a wonderful show.

But I realize this is bait, Pic related.

Agreed.

>>90885672

your taste

>>90888990
Atleast it's not a replacement by choice.

I give Greg Baldwin alot of leeway in the new series because Mako is just so unreplacable, but Aku is such a major part of Samurai Jack.

If they had just gone and replaced Mako for the sake of replacing him it'd be unforgivable, but alas, he was taken away from us before SJ could be concluded.

> feels bad man.

>>90887379
Bull fucking shit. Baldwin is no Mako but I trust Genndy's judgement a damn sight more than whatever bullshit you're spewing from your ass.

Pig sheriff isn't back.

>>90888227
memes

>>90888189
The same thing he has been doing for the last 50 years

>>90887379
Mako's family disagrees with you

Apparently they cried when they heard Baldwin's delivery of his last few lines in the show

>>90892596
They cried because he's defiling Mako's memory.

>>90885672
Its been the music for me. Its been incredible this season, but there was something about it from before that is missing. Its just different.

I feel like this is too good to be true. Everyone on /co/ agreeing that this is great? Seriously? Not a single contrarian? It almost has me worried. How long until people starts turning on this season and considering the worst abomination ever to exist in the history of humankind?

>>90892762
>Not a single contrarian?
As you can plainly see OP was trying to start shit and got an actual on-topic thread.

It's the magic of swordsmanship.

>>90892693
It's more "movie-like"

>>90892762
>Not a single contrarian? It almost has me worried.
Just two episodes in, remember we thought Korra was God's gift to man at this point.
Desu even though I really want the entire season to be good, I'm still bracing for the ball to be dropped

>>90887379
>>90887438
Not him, but I really dig this one:

>>90893000
I really think Genndy may pull it off. I have faith in him. But he has to go balls to the wall amazing, no-fucks-given with the final battle. And considering what the series has been so far, it's going to be pretty fucking hard.

>>90887663
>YOU, thank YOU!
>NO! My intention was to destroy you
Just fucked up.
Should have struck a deal with Aku not to touch Japan
>But, anon, honor
Fuck it. There's a forty foot evil all consuming wizard entity towering over you, put your priorities in order and negotiate for your life and the lives of your people until you actually figure out how to kill it.
>Aku cannot be trusted
True, but he can be reasoned with. Judging by his rule in the future he is not adverse to allowing some loyal to him to go about their day.

that's just even worse
All Aku impersonations are terrible because everyone just grunts as hard as they can while they talk and that doesn't work at all
Greg Baldwin may not have Mako's voice but he understands his kind of specific accent which is why I think Gendy made the perfect choice for nu-Aku

>>90889306

>>90893368
>Should have struck a deal with Aku
Aku wouldn't hold up the deal. Besides, even though it kinda makes sense, he'd have to think about it, and clearly he was too shocked to think.
