I am no doctor but I am pretty sure that if someone slices you with a blade so bad that you actually lose consciousness you might not make it out "in one piece".

Plus that Russian guy isn't whole anymore with all these grenades

You are reasoning like a 4kids censor, it's not because there's no blood or no limbs detached that they are necessarily "okay" or just "knocked out"
>>
>>91016165
Russian guy is shown as whole.
It's not really 4kids censorship since there's actual One Piece that shows all the grisly detail also nobody dies in One Piece despite all the bodily harm
They're alive, Jack didn't mortally wound them. Deal with it and accept he narrative they're pushing already.
Gennedy wasn't able to show Jack kill someone for 5 years now he's enjoying playing with the concept for once.
>>
>>91016165
The blade cannot harm innocents.

I'm sure that it can cause harm but not kill someone in the moral grey area of being forced to do such terrible things if it is their only option.

For fuck's sake

It was rating Y7 for 4 seasons, and Jack was until very recently a very obviously squeeky clean hero. He didn't kill anyone flesh and blood until now. No, the bounty hunters getting the shit kicked out of them does not count as murder- yes, they would be dead if it wasn't a cartoon. But it is.

You can give this series credit for depth in certain things but the first 4 seasons are very obviously black and white with Jack being 100% a Good Guy.

So lick a dick, I guess
>>
>>91016165
Nigga, it's a CARTOON. Cartoon swords can be lethal or nonlethal whenever the show wants them to.
>>
>>91016266
>The blade cannot harm innocents.

I dunno man, in that episode with the rave he drew a sword and was about to go Full Skywalker, but someone yelled "Stop! They're children!" and he switched to fists.
>>
>>91017093
>>91016642
Aku stole the sword once and tried to stab Jack with it, only for it to bounce off his skin. The same might have happened if he tried to cut the raver kids with it.
>>
>>91017188
>might have
>>
>>91016479
Back in my day and in my country DBZ aired on a different channel and I have no fucking idea what the other two cartoon are.

But leave it to ameritards to think everyone watched the same network. You can pretend it's a retcon all you want tho, it's your headcanon after all.
>>

Remeber - no blood.

You're a retard and the same fucking thing has been said in thoses threads a dozen time.

Go rewatch the fucking moment on Youtube when Jack talks about the sword and shut your mouth.
>>
>That's it Jack, pull my hair and call me AKUUUUUU
>>
Because even if he's killed before there's a difference between consciously deciding that killing a bad guy is the best course of action and discovering you've accidentally murdered a young girl because you thought it was just some robot.
>>
>>91017291
I think his shock is less about the fact he'd killed an adversary and more that it was a young girl who he probably figured was brainwashed or something (ala the ravers). If he had to, he would probably have killed a bounty hunter or two when necessary without too much of a moral dilema. Whether the sword would have cut the ravers, or even the daughter of Aku is another matter, but I'd imagine Jack would have been pretty upset if he'd murdered the ravers before he was told they were just kids.
>>
>>91017236
https://youtu.be/DtTQ-8npkWY?t=2m17s

Hard to tell where the definition lies. He had no problem cutting up a robot when he was infected with evil that one time. Brainwashed teenagers probably count though.

S.J was made a while ago so of course we would forget. It just wasn't common for him to kill humans since we're used to seeing him destroy robots.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bBYXv97FuAY&t=3s
>>
>>91017382
Nothing indicates that those guys were killed, though. He fucked their shit up, but that's as far as we know. Seriously don't get why people keep assuming they must have died just because the show was tiptoeing around most violence with the robots. We've already seen how gritty season 5 is, it's not like Genndy was striving for Battle Royale levels of ultra gore and just unable to because of the Y-7 rating.

>Jack and the Lava Monster was literally about Jack killing a human.
Except the man was barely human anymore. He had been imprisoned in the crystal for ages, and spent much of that time willing his consciousness beyond its confines to build a new body. Jack killing him was freeing a trapped spirit, not killing a completely normal human.

But please, keep screaming retcon because you people can't handle the word of the fucking creator over your own opinions.
>>
>>91017409
Because

- Jack never says he doesn't kill humans.
- Jack does things that could kill humans.

The man once hit a woman in the face with a shovel to knock her off a moving train in the mountains. Mira the bounty hunter warns the rest that their plans would be less them to their deaths. He has no reputation for mercy.

I don't know what any of this shit is about but Jack is a samurai. The only reason he only killed robots is because that's all they were allowed to show. Apparently they don't need to bullshit around that anymore? More power to them.
>>
>>91017679
>>Ignoring that his rapid aging was caused by losing the fight.
losing the fight broke the curse and turned him back into a human, considering he probably was over hundred years at that point that's why he died

Yea? And Genndy said this new season would see Jack killing his first human, therefore confirming Jack never killed anyone before.

>>91017570
Because the curse on him was broken, retard.

>>91017775
Yeah. And this all happened thanks to Jack. He caused him to die. He killed him.

they're fucking dead man. Did you also forget this was the episode where Jack was most bloodthirsty and angry in the series? He was absolutely livid when they harassed him about a bounty.

More than anything I'm dumbfounded that there are people like OP that believe that Jack would kill people on a kid's show on a children's network.
>>
>>91016042
Most of the time he "knocked out" people because censoring.

Also he constantly killed sentient Robots that could walk,talk and show feelings.

A lot of people died in the Show, at least offscreen.

Just go back to Steven Universe if it's too complex to understand.

>>91017188
Jack sliced an innocent robot in half while he was infected with Aku's cold. All the robot did was accidentally bump into him while in the middle of a marketplace.

You didn't see the contents of his hard drive. That Robot was the most evil being on Earth bar Aku.

And people wanna argue about how logically, the bounty hunters would be dead. This show isn't exactly the most logical thing ever made. Jack has gotten his ass worse than they did. He should have been dead numerous times, but because of plot armor, he survived.

>>
>>91023224
I can accept the bounty hunters being alive even though Jack slices through the guy's chest, sure. That's fine. But the original Jack clearly didn't mind killing people. There's the Wild West episode that ends with him throwing the two bounty hunters off a train into a ravine, and yes they survive, but Jack didn't know it and did nothing to make that happen. As far as he knew he was throwing a normal human lady and a big doofus a thousand feet to the grounds.
>>
>>91023280
Jack knew
But really we know the meta reasons. Jack "didn't care" because there was no point to it. Jack couldn't kill no reason to dwell on it. Now Jack CAN kill so they can actually explore the affect it has on him. It's for Jack as much as it is for the writers. Also if it helps you, Jack is having a prolonged breakdown anyways and is full of self doubt. So before he wouldn't care because he felt infallibly righteous in nearly killing those people. Now he feels like a shit so he'll probably get a ghost party shitting on him for killing their waifu.

Half is a meme and half is just being autistic and taking Genndy too literally.

I'm glad Jack is popular again but I'm already tired of the autists it's attracted around here. Genndy says he hasn't killed a human. Are you really gonna get a stick up your ass about it just because you thought he did based on an inconclusive scene from one episode? Is that really enough to ruin the season when it wasn't confirmed or focused on either way? Just take Genndy's word and roll with it for fuck's sake.

Well, there was that guy in the Baroque Works arc that literally got capped before the Marines find his body.

He seemed pretty surprised, just not like in anime where it takes 2 fucking episodes for the character to contemplate their action and mope about it internally.

They said he didn't kill any humans, not that he never killed anyone. Christ alive, the Bounty Hunters episode was the only one where he fought normal humans who weren't magically/mechanically augmented, and it was never 100% if he actually killed them. Nothing was word of god out of continuity, it's been merely confirmed that all concerns about those guys have been put to rest.

The reason why this is causing such a shitstorm is not because jack never killed a human before,its the fact the it affects him differently than killing a robot or alien.
Throughout the entire original series jack has treated everyone equal, robots, aliens or humans it didnt matter to him. jack has risked is life to save everyone regardless of who they are. It makes no sense that jack value human life more than the life of others and killing one affects him as such.
>>
>>91032783


>>Some of those bounty hunters were definitely alien-like. But maybe they’re right! [Laughs] In my head, they were robots. I’d have to look at that episode again. I remember the episode, but I think they were mostly aliens.

Read more than what you want to read dummy.
>>
>>91033691
Except most of what he killed were unthinking creatures. They were mindless and thus there wasn't any point to be bothered by it. If this daughter is the human Genndy has been going on about, it's understandable that Jack would be upset because he took the life of someone who obviously fell to the corruptions of Aku's influence; a life that could have been peaceful and better spent if things had been different. Hell, if he learns about the cult, he'll probably be more appalled because they made the daughters into killing machines for a master who doesn't even know they exist.
>>
>>91033968
I did, and nothing about it indicates he changed them. He said SOME of them were alien-like, while a few others were likely robots. He didn't say, "Oh but those human ones? Yea, they were robots."

It's astounding how much you people want to twist his words to sound like he changed something that was 100% clear like who trained Jack and where. You really want to talk retcons? Then how about the fact that Jack's father mentions three MONKS who helped forged the sword, then it turns out to be fucking Odin, Ra, and Vishnu? That is a retcon because it actually changes something fully established.

It was a cartoon for kids. And the mood of the episode never gave the idea that they died. They just laid down unconscious. Even Boris who had 0 scratches.

Stop trying to scream "retcon" out of something that never happened. It's fucking so fucking weird that this is the ONE thing that people won't stop arguing about now that the series went Adult Swim and shown Jack killing for the first time.
>>
>>91034239
Because for some reason people want to be right about the bounty hunters even though it was never crystal about their fates before. All Genndy has done is just confirm no humans perished to Jack.

As for the Viking dude, Jack destroyed his crystalline prison, and the man succumbed to the ravages of time that had been held at bay because of Aku's magic. He never directly pierced the man himself.
>>
>>91034297
I did read it all, dipshit. And nothing about it says he changed them. He even said there were some humans, then says "Maybe they didn't die."

If anyone's reading things to sound like the way they want it to sound, it's you with this "But he said he kind of forgot, so he's retconning it!" which is in no indicated by his comments.
>>
>>91034323
Let's not forget that Jack also beat them in the split second for a drop of water to condense at the tip of an icicle and fall to the ground, a feat that is only possible in a cartoon.

Dude. He'll be sporting his classic look and the intro song will be probably playing or something while he wrecks everybody's shit.
>>
>>91034325
The show has a clear tgings for Jack sparing but striking enemies.

>Jack doesnt use his sword to defeat them.
>If he does, he slashes them nonlethally like disarming them or cutting off parts of their body.
>The defeated show signs of life like noises or movement.

The episode defies all those conventions. Its an episode where death is used instead of destruction.

No you fucking didnt since you're literally denying his own word of not having clear recollection of the episode. For fucks sake he says there are robots in the episode
>>
>>91034523
No, it was being dramatic as part of the fact that he's beating down several people in the time it takes for water to fall. It would have ruined the coolness of his action if we had them all groaning in defeat when the point is to leave the audience stunned at how cool Jack just was.
>>
>>91034572
I fucking did, and did not deny anything. For one, he laughed as he said they were robots, joking about his poor recollection of the episode. Furthermore, he fucking said "MAYBE THEY DIDN'T DIE."

Get it through your fucking skull already, he confirms they didn't die. That isn't a retcon in any sense of the term.
>>
When's the next episode?
>>
>>91034781
Tonight.
>>
>>91034135
The gods take the form of monks when forging the sword though

That implied to me that Jack's dad could not see their true forms
>>
>>91034643
You think the coolness would be ruined by the slightest of movement indicating life or brief groans when the camera is focused on their bodies?
>>91034701
You just acknowledged he poorly remembers that episode and yet you still insist it wasnt a retcon. How much Genndy cock can you drink?

Taking Genndy's words, the fucking episode is about 2 humans surviving while a bunch of alien and robot hunters die.
>>
>>91034967
Yes it would
>>
>>91032078
Jack freed a cursed man from his curse. It doesn't matter if he died afterwards, he was set free. To say he "killed him" is more like a technicality than just murder.
>>
>>91034967
For some, it would. Besides, you don't need moans to confirm survival.

And it's not a retcon because nothing at all confirmed they were fucking dead in the first place.

>how much cock can you drink
Real mature, buddy. Nothing about me agreeing with him about the hunters not dying makes me a cock sucker. How about you just learn to live with the fact that you were mistaken about them dying like an adult?
>>
>>91034967
>You think the coolness would be ruined by the slightest of movement indicating life or brief groans when the camera is focused on their bodies?
Yes, absolutely.

>early staff said Jack killing people was rare since they had to do it in a non-explicit manner
>Genndy himself admitted that he forgot about all the times Jack used lethal force in the original show but also said it's OK with people saying Jack killed people in the past

>/co/ still tries to make up shit to justify their headcanons of Jack never killing anyone

This is just sad.
>>
>>91034875
Still, that can be considered a retcon because nothing before implied Jack's father was merely seeing an illusion. Far as most people were concerned prior to the prequel special, it was monks.

It's kind of like the Master Sword situation in Zelda. Numerous games stated sages or whatever helped create the sword, then Skyward Sword comes along and reveals no sages were involved, and that it wasn't always called the Master Sword.
>>
>>91035591
Two dot's on a topless little girl taking a bath. That's it. I'd post it but /co/ is so crap that you get banned for posting cartoon nipples that were still appropriate for TV-Y7 television.
>>
>>91035709
Nobody is making anything up about him not killing humans, because there were only two episodes where he defeated humans, and neither gave any concrete proof that he did/did not kill them. Genndy's statement is not at all a retcon, but a confirmation about a fact that had been debatable until recently. What's sad is people insisting that it must be a retcon when it clearly isn't so.

>>91016042
I've got an idea. How about we just fucking watch the episode?

If they explicitly say Jack has never killed humans before, we accept that.

If they explicitly say he's killed humans before, we accept that too.

If they don't say anything, we just go on believing what we fucking believe. Does that sound hard to anyone?

If it's baby nipples that doesn't count.

>>
>>91037675
We never saw a wound on the man, or any of the foes people think Jack has killed. Is it really this hard for people to accept that they were wrong about deaths that were never confirmed or denied until now?

How many fucking times does it have to explained that the only stipulation is that the sword can't be used by evil to harm good? I haven't even watched this show consistently but an anon explained it one time and I understood it. I'm surprised by how fucking dense you people are, why does this have to be constantly re-explained.

It makes no difference, because what he said still isn't disproven. If something is unlikely, like, say, someone surviving a samurai's sword assault, but someone confirms they did, who are you to argue?

Prove his words wrong with more than just conjecture. But you can't.

We all thought he'd be finished after sym-bionic Titan and popeye, but based genndy rose from the ashes and truck back!

Jack has killed a lot of supernatural creatures and aliens. I just think he doesn't care if it isn't a human.
>>
>>91047508
Well clearly he did in the latest episode. He never killed a human being, only robots and aliens/monsters. End of fucking story.

>>91046850
This got me thinking, and I don't know if I can explain myself in a coherent way.

Is Samurai Jack the only show where its rating was actually part of the in-show universe in any way? Meaning that before this episode, we all speculated that that any downed, non-robot, enemy might be dead. As in, killed by Jack.

I know there's been shows where the get meta about their TV rating, like Animaniacs for example, but I'm asking about the non-cartoony shows.
>>
>>91046826
I wouldn't even say Jack killed him. Jack broke the spell, and age did the rest.
>>
>>91050310
NegaJack literally said they've never killed a human before.
>>
The show said it's the first time he took a human life.
So it's the first time, to his knowledge, that he took a human life.

Don't overthink this. Just go along for the ride.
>>
>>91050892
He took an alien life but not a human life. Humans are pretty damn scarce in the future.
>>
>>91051591
Seems like it.

Which makes the Daughters all the more tragic and their mother's actions all the more heinous.
>>
>>91050771
Which doesn't contradict anything seen before.
>>
>>91050892
So the show confirmed Gennsy's hackery with this "first human Jack never kills" shit. Great. At least Jack didnt hesitate when killing the other daughters.

We better not revisit this shit again.
