WHAT WAS THE POINT OF THIS
>>92627405
Honestly it was a silly idea Genndy came up with, then he basically forgot about it until half way through writing season five, then just said "fuck it whatever I'll throw in a sly easter egg."
I think the general nerd headcanon now is that this image was projected from the new future jack created by killing aku in the past. All the kingdoms united and made him king of everything or some shit, then he fights his way to finding the guardian portal, defeats the guardian, and then uses it to jump into the future where ashi is still alive or something.

TO PISS US ALL OF 13 YEARS LATER

Honestly this ending would have been better.

im up for the "possible future" theory. This was going to happen IF it was going to

The story we would've gotten if Genndy was a competent writer.
>tfw /co/ duped you into giving this series a shot and it turned out to be a whole lot of nothing
>>92627554
But Ashi doesn't exist anymore.
The way I see it, he does use it as a future king but simply to see what the future held once Aku was gone. It's quite poignant if you think about it.

who knew we would get an ending 13 years later...
>>92627405
He could've been king of the world...
Instead he's "emperor" of some shitty little village.

Who says he doesn't become king of the world later? The prophecy could still come to pass, after all.
