What's the worst episode of Samurai Jack and why is it this one?
>>
There are no worst episodes.
>>
>>91858855
It's the Farting Dragon.
>>

HAHAHAHABA
>>
>>91859373
This.
>>
>>91858855
Fuck you, that episode was cute. Especially when Jack got BTFO by those robots and that cute fat ass turned into an angry monster and killed them.
>>
>>91861169
IMO the robots were the best part, their shticks were hilarious as fuck.

They did seem rather conveniently OP, though.
>>
>>91861186
I forgot how exactly it went down, but wasn't it because Jack couldn't reach his sword or something?

Also, I want that monster to return for S05.
>>
>>91858855
It's Jack The Woolies and the Critchellites or whatetever they were called.
At least Farting Dragon had a couple of good jokes, and pic related had WHAILD RIIDE.
The Woolies episode was just boring and dull. The only visually stunning thing was the dream sequence.
That recap from the last episode was more exciting than the entire original ep.
>>
>>91861207
He had his sword, one of the robots just shot his arm with some sort of local tranquilizer. Makes you wonder why Aku never did that.
>>
>>91861233
because he's a dumbass japanese redneck that's why
>>
WIIILD RIDE
SHE'LL TAKE YOU FOR A WILD RIDE
>>
>>91861213
I'm pretty sure it was specifically meant that way, as Jack's first adventure after the premiere movie.
>>
>>91859373

Yep

The one with the blue creature at least had some charm, even if it was annoying

But the dragon episode was horrific

I don't understand how that episode was made

Maybe higher ups made them do it

Let's face it, half of season 2 was pretty much shit. The season is a blight on the series IMO.

Never seen it but nothing with "farting" in the title can be good.
>>
>>91862204
>>91862213
>Spartans
I'm kinda surprised this is even up for debate, as it's not even the best episode of that short list. It's incredibly formulaic and forgettable, even if there's nothing bad about it specifically. Also, the Spartans themselves were practically walking plot devices, far more so than new characters in most other episodes.
>Scotsman part 2
Yeah, I know this one is a fan favorite, but it feels too stitched-together for my taste (kinda like season 5, actually). And the whole aspect of an entire Scottish clan bigger and louder than the Scotsman himself, not to mention his wife being like that too... it's just so predictably boring. And also unrealistic.
>>

the wild ride segment saved it.

Naked and Sandals are practically self-explanatory, and I just explained my reasoning for the other two: >>91862271
It's not shit taste if it's backed up by objective facts

That's not Jack is Naked or Farting Dragon.
>>
>>91858855
That's not the one with a million mandarks.
>>
>>91862427
The first one is a fan favorite, and for good reason. It's a brilliantly done episode in so many ways.

The second is just shit, relatively speaking I mean.
>>
>>91858855
That one may be a filler, but it's also among the most entertaining episodes out there.
Ep 4 of the new season, while crucial for the development of the story, is still the lamest to date for trying to be the previous seasons but not quite achieving it, unlike the other two episodes that followed.
>>
>>91862403
That one was extremely formulaic too but I enjoyed it far more than the Spartans one. If anyone can tell me why this is, I'll be very impressed, because I can't seem to figure it out myself.

Tbh its probably the most underrated episode

Well it certainly isn't kino, but I enjoyed how Jack went full Looney Tunes for an entire episode. The parallels with Alice were also a nice touch.

Jack trying to get his old shoes back was golden. Anyone who's used to a specific type or pair of boots or shoes should empathize; and him running across people that are not only his own but sympathetic to his cause was heartwarming.

Star Wars references and nods, I mean. It wouldn't have been an issue if it weren't so often. It happens a few times in The Scotsman Saves Jack and pretty much the entire time in Flying Prince and Princess.

I feel like they wanted to do it here too.

Right, you didn't see Star Wars, so when you go through s4, you don't notice anything.

I and lot of other people did, and it's distracting.
>>
>>91865896
Chicken Jack was immensely boring. The entire episode is "Jack is a chicken lol." It's not the worst thing ever, which says a lot about the show's overall quality, but it certainly isn't good. I did like the rat design though.

Farting Dragon was bad, but it was at least amusing at points, and Jack inside the Dragon was neat. The rest was bad.

Not at all, only a few tracks are good, the rest just mediocre. I can probably count them on one hand.

The original Chicken Jack track is actually more of lost media than that one, come to think of it.
>>
>>91858855
This episode is pretty boring, the creature is annoying and the action sequence isn't really that interesting.
However, the background art is wonderful. I love the use of squares and vibrant colors to create a forest, for example.
>>
>>91859373
The interior of the dragon was pretty surrealist; I personally enjoyed it.
>>
>>91869567
>the action sequence isn't really that interesting.
Fuck you, it's one of the best in the whole show.
>>
>>91862172
>>Jack and the Smackback
Fuck off, this is an underappreciated gem. I love how the whole episode is basically an extended action sequence. It barely gives you any time to breathe and seeing Jack winning is incredibly satisfying.
>>
>>91862403
It was a solid prequel to Sym Bionic Titan.
I was hoping they'd go full circle and make an episode in Sym Bionic Titan that was a huge reference to Samurai Jack.
>>
>>91866066
The fight scenes in Chicken Jack were pretty awesome though. I loved how much more violent than usual they got with having Jack, for example, killing an aborted dog-rat with the acid blood on a giant snake.
>>
>>91868565
The one with the robot family was amazing just because of how out of nowhere it came.

>>91868601

I just want to listen to the background music of Spring from The Four Seasons of Death. It is literally the best music the show has ever produced.

The Farting Dragon was a revolutionary cartoon for it's time and covered a lot of controversial topics.

List of good tracks, just for the record:
chicken
desert
rave
sirens
spring
That's exactly 5, just as I said it would be.
>>
>>91862172
Jack Is Naked and Jack's Sandals are both top tier.
>>
>>91869562

Yeah but I thought it was a bit haphazardly thrown together.

It's better than I remember but I still wish we had a straight HD rip. Hell, release the whole show's OST before the company burns down like what happened to the Sonic OVA ost
>>
>>91869597

I thought that the inside of the dragon was awesome, that's the most memorable part of the episode and episode 4 of the new season was very similar to that, which was very enjoyable IMO.
>>
>>91862403
That whole episode felt so strange to me. It was like they were trying to do a crossover with a series that doesn't exist.
>>
>>91858855
The better question is what's the worst episode of the latest season and why is it the 6th?

This is fucking Samurai Jack. Most of the old episodes are formulatic because they're not driven by plot but by action and mood. And Spartans ep did that perfectly.

i feel like it's really overrated because it just has one GOAT scene and the rest is really generic stuff about jack helping some random nameless villagers.

Jack and the Spartans is the worst. It was so boring I almost quit the show.

The Imakandi episode.
I dunno, the chase scenes weren't really that intense (safe for that final moment on top of the bulding I guess), but really... I think Imakandi's character designs are pretty lame. A bunch of furry lions with a couple of spears and arrows.
They just never felt truly intimidating to me, even tho the episode went out of its way to tell us how badass they were since they even defeated Jack. But you'd expect that from a more threatening opponent, and I can't really remember anything cool or threatening about them.
>>
>>91873116

Shinobi is one of my favourite villains in the show and he almost managed to sneak up on Jack. He was fucking good.

First, they had guns and a buggy in open desert terrain with little cover. Second, poison dart gun got in some lucky shots.

It always felt like a SpongeBob episode, especially with the whole cynical ending.

This makes so much sense.

It's not about getting back to the past. It's about making sure you're still the same man when you do.

Also, the fact that it wouldn't matter is probably why he won't return to the past at all.

As well as many other crazy jumps that could be construed as "jump good." Do you even watch the show?
>>
>>91875636
The worst part is that in the time it took him to decide which way to go, he could have just jumped through the portal and ran back if it didn't work for ~plot~ reasons.
>>
>>91877655
Mate, he was fucking near flying in that episode. You can pick basically any episode and find a scene that would be resolved if Jack could just jump to the moon and back.

That being said, I just started on season 4, so maybe the jumping good makes a huge comeback. But come on.
>>
>>91877770
It doesn't make a "huge comeback," but that's because it never went anywhere. Even in the fight with Demongo, he leaps straight out of the canyon like a goddamn superhero. It doesn't mean he has to do this stylish slow-mo flight, which was just for dramatic effect the first time anyway.

deepest lore

>>91877919
Well yeah, my point was that there were a LOT of situations that could have been resolved with the fucking superpower of jumping.

Of course, I'm not saying they SHOULD have resolved them with jumping, ut it was just a minor annoyance I coulndt help but notice.
>>
>>91877770
Wow, I've been binging the series too and am also just starting season 4. What are the odds?
>>
>>91878906
Yeah, I watched the show sporadically as a kid but I felt I wanted to catch up properly before watching the new shit. Kinda stressful, the season is heading towards the end.

>>91866066
Chicken Jack is worth it just for the very end.

>>91862403
That episode is a bit lackluster, especially since it's more or less a rip off of Star Wars. But I think Aku has some of his best dialogue in that episode.
>"I AM AKU, THIS WORLD IS AKU, AND EVERYTHING IN IT IS AKU!"
>>
I'm pretty positive that anyone who says "Jack and the Farting Dragon" is the worst episode never saw it and didn't watch it in their rewatch simply because it had "Farting" in the title.

It was a good episode.
>>
>>91879208
It's alright. Everything leading up to the dragon is good. But seriously, how creatively bankrupt and mentally challenged do you have to be to pitch that idea? "What if there's this dragon who farts constantly and Jack has to help him out?" It really is a waste of an episode. They could have kept the same buildup in the first half while improving on the second half with a much more interesting source problem.
>>
>>91879370
Not the guy you are replying to.

Wow, I had managed to suppress the memory of the episode. Well, partially at least, I always thought the dragon had a bad breath. That would have been immensely better than gas.
>>
>>91879208
>>91879760
Gotta be honest, I never saw the episode title during my recent binging of the series and thought he was expelling foul smoke or something.
>>
>>91879370
>Everything leading up to the dragon is good.
Not everything.
Why did we need that useless information about the barber's guy daughter being killed by dragon? I thought the dauhter was the one giving him indigestion and it would turn out she's something horrifying like Scotsman's wife, but no, that got dropped entirely.
>>

fuck

I hear it gets better, but to be honest, I never finished it. It was just so slow and dreary.

Vagabond is best Samurai Jack song because it's a reference to the best Kurosawa film theme:

>>91866111
I would buy a Samurai Jack soundtrack solely for the music from the rave and the Italian cockfighter's leitmotif.
>>
>>91881373
Fucking pleb, I would buy an SJ soundtrack if it didn't have any of the "good" tracks on it just to support the show.

rewatched the whole show recently
>dat lone wolf and cub cameo
damn, never could have gotten it 15 years ago for sure.

Thank you very much, I do accept my #1 Samurai Jack fan award.

What?

>>91881536
He means in a childhood flashback episode, you can google SJ + Lone Wolf and Cub.
>>
>>91861213
I can see your point of view, but at the same time it was the beginning of the series. It needed exposition on Jack's character
>>

Also Jack getting to know and bond with another Japanese family was great

I'm not sure if I'd call it my favorite, but I loved the 4 stories format of The Four Season of Dead.
Spring is also one of my favorite scenes in all of Samurai Jack.
The music is GOAT. The conversation is excellent. The background music is beautiful. And the concept of the tired warrior who comes across a downright paradise where a beautiful nymph or whatever says he does have a right to rest but turns out to be a lie and forces him to keep moving, forever, until his quest is over might be a little cliched, but I fucking love it. And somehow I barely see people talking about it.
