>We never got to see who this was What the absolute fuck.

>>92617890
This was the first thing I thought of when I saw that silhouette

>>92617873
I still think that they made who she is ambiguous enough that the viewer could come up with their own idea/headcanon/whatever you want to call it of which past character she's a reference to

>>92617873
Probably the same point of showing us all the characters whose lives Jack touched despite the fact that in a few episodes they'd be erased from existance

>>92617953
>erased from existence
In some time lines, yes, others they're thriving since Aku is gone. Faggot.

>>92617873
It's just a randomly shaped character who was in for less than one episode. Why do people care who it is?

>>92617873
So that people speculate.

Here's the most common theories I've seen

>Momotaro
>Kuni
>An Imakandi Elder
>One of those cat people from the ultra bots episode.
>The Fairy (somehow)

>>92617873
I wasn't expecting to see you here, sis.

>>92617978
And what are those timelines? The show didn't show us any other timelines.

>>92617953
Are we still repeating this meme?

>>92617873
>What the absolute fuck. What was even the point of adding this character?

season 5 starts at "XCII/92". So there's 40 episodes unaccounted for to fill in the blanks.

>>92617978
>>92618052
In the end it's irrelevant whether they exist or not. They all were willing to risk their lives for the chance at erasing Aku's existence.

>>92618122
So, you're saying that any time between the last episode before cancellation and the 5th season is when he could have met someone like the mysterious figure there?

>>92618053
They will bitch for a few months.

>>92618130
Did Jack tell them that?

>>92617873
There wasn't. The whole season was pointless.

>>92618259
He would have never needed to. For them it wouldn't have mattered.

>>92617978
You can't assume multiple timelines exist unless that's established in-universe, otherwise you're basically just filling in the blanks with fanfiction.

>>92617978
BUT FIRST LET ME TALK ABOUT PARALLEL UNIVERSES

>>92618339
>>92618366

Even with that established, we'd have to take a page out or Rick and Morty and ask ourselves what if Aku cured cancer?

>>92618034
But the question is, which one makes most sense thematically as "mysterious shadowy figure who gives cryptic advice before vanishing"?

>>92618482
There's not even a point. By having Ashi die the way she did, it effectively denied any multiverse theory.

>>92617953
Fag, what did you think "gotta get back to the past" meant, this is what was going to happen since the beginning, why only birch now?

>>92617873
>What was even the point of adding this character?
So Ashi knew where to go

Why didn't the black Aku stuff on Ashi's body disappear right away after he had been killed?

The Scotsman was erased from existence.

>>92618498
>Momotaro
baby grew up into blue-sclera'd vaguely cat eyed midget with drooped animal ears? lol ok
>Kuni
see above
>Imakandi Elder
vaguely cat-like, an elder could be short, would have both the eyes and the ears. most likely possibility
>One of the cat people from the ultra bots episode
bit more of a push than an imakandi but maybe
>The fairy
uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

>>92617873
maybe it was someone from the first village destroyed by Aku Jack encountered in the future

>>92618698
not okay

>>92617890
Nice meme but we want a real answer.

>>92618733
It could just be a straw hat they're wearing

>>92618798
if it's a straw hat with a brim that low it would be covering their eyes like how jack's does when he wears one

>>92618821
Could be for stylistic purposes so that their eyes would still be fully visible. Hard to tell when it's just a silhouette

>>92618733
The Imakandi's had slit pupils rather than round ones, and their ears were smaller, assuming those are ears

>>92618855
no it's easy to tell when it's a silhouette and you can see the eyes perfectly because of them glowing in the dark, unobstructed by anything

>>92618698
He exists. But he'll never meet Jack or have to save his wife from robots or have to die at Aku's hands. He lives a long and happy life with his family.

One daughter of aku survived, gre to hate aku, and learned to shapeshift.

Genndy is a hack and he needed to make a character to move the plot forward, ergo random ass silhouette appears

shouldn't be useful to have a SJ general?
there are like 13 threads that start with a different topic about the series that somehiow devolve into time travel debates and with one single thread it would be more easy to follow up some discussions. i've already seen the same post copypasted in different SJ threads probably because the one who made them wasn't sure where he would get some response

A general would cause it to last two years or more. By letting them to get it out of their system it'll die off in a couple of weeks.

>>92619052
No generals. It ended two days ago so there's a bunch of threads about it, wait a week and it will be all clear.

It's not like there's a lot to discuss anyway.

How many daughters of the Scottsman did we see?

When does this character come out? I dont remember this.

>>92617873
Is there any character in Japanese mythology that might have a similar role or appearance to this one? The omen was almost certainly a Shinigami, the ladybug represents the love ties between 2 people and some more things. The wolf was another deity, I think. So you might want to look there.

>>92621450

S5E6, about 17 minutes in, as Ashi leaves the tavern.

>>92618259
Considering he asked almost everyone he ran into about time portals...yeah.

>>92617890
We get it, already.

>>92621945
Thx anon. I forgot about that. Thats what I get for watching drunk XD

>>92618259
Yes. Several times. Aku even broadcasted the intro to the entire world, for christ's sake.

They didn't add a character.
There are a ton of one shot characters that have no backstory.
Here is some random nurse bot.
She helps Jack for 5 seconds and is never seen again.
Sometimes characters just serve a function without any elaboration.

If you ask directions while traveling, you don't make small talk for 10 minutes and ask about their life story.
Its a conversation of utility.

How many times are you going to post a thread asking a question thats already been answered?

>>92625726
Makes sense in terms of shape, doesn't really make sense thematically.

>>92625726
The eyes are way different, and the shadow didn't have a weird Snarf voice.

There was an entire village of those things. The one is pic related was killed by the Ultrabots.

>Once I had this dream that I went to Earth, and I was walkin' through this rainy forest and this woman dressed in leaves came up to me and she said "I lost my samurai!" and I said "I don't - do I look like a samurai?" and she said "No, but I lost a samurai!" and I said "Well, I really feel for you, lady, but, y'know, what can I do? I'm not a samurai catcher or anything." and she said, "Well, ya gotta help me find my samurai!" and I said, "He's over there." and pointed in a direction just to get rid of her and she said "Thank you very kindly." and then walked off and I never saw her since. And then I woke up.

>>92625883
Well, unlike the other cameos they weren't really people Jack saved or helped, since they had already been massacred by the time he came across them. They also weren't the focus of the episode they originally appeared in, unlike all the other cameos.
