Is Jack still immortal?

>>92882723
Word of god is no. However god avoided answering any questions on the time paradoxes he created so take that as you will.

It doesn't matter really. He is still pretty broken no matter what.

>>92882723
Maybe, will he see Hiroshima and Nagasaki go up in fire and smoke?

I honestly can't see immortality as anything but a curse.

>>92882723
Given that the nature of time travel magic and the effects of the portals was never explored beyond the "but I do not age", the answer is left entirely up to the viewers "interpretation", which is to say you are free to chose whatever headcanon will validate your opinion.
Which just so happens to be true for the ending as well.
And any given question Samurai Jack has left unanswered.

Probably not, but no answer is given in concrete terms.

Both jack himself and his sword are straight up magic so he'll probably live to be real ancient even if he's not outright immortal.

You might live long enough to become the shapeshifting master of darknesss, the shogun of sorrow, the evil that is Aku.

>>92882723
He was never immortal. The entirety of the series was Jack's dream, hence why he didn't age in it.

>>92883849

That's stupid, he'd have woken up as a child if that was the case.

>>92883896
Aku is real in Jack's world, he just never traveled through time, Aku instead knocked him unconscious.

>It's better to have loved and lost to have never loved at all

when aku asks if jack is dead ashi replies back and says no hes not. and never will be. so take what you will with that but i think it a pretty solid answer to you and the audiences question but only when youre not immediately disregarding the authors intelligence like so many people on this board do when they think theyve found some unseamed plothole that should have been further discussed when it really needed to be

>>92890519
*when it never really needed to be

>>92890519
I did find that a very unusual turn of phrase, but it might just be her saying she's never going to kill him.

Either way this is before she realizes she can use her connection to Aku to go to the past, which is definitely a factor.

As much as Ashi mightve somewhat derailed the last season, I still wish she wouldve lived. We wouldve had a paradox regardless of whether she lived or died, and she wouldve been able to make Jack truly happy. His last little piece he brought with him from the future that is Aku. One of the few good things to come from it for him.

Yeah, I predicted the disappearing friends conclusion from the start, but I hoped Jack would either end up just staying in the future and make do, or be able to bring a fragment of it back with him.

>>92890924
It's Highlander rules. You can be physically killed by things, just not by aging.

>>92890704
I can't say I'm a fan of the 'modern times' pitches, one of the best things about Samurai Jack was always that element of the alien and mysterious, which made the stuff in the past work, too.

I do get a laugh out of Ashi "fading from existence" at (in)convenient moments, though.

>>92890924
Why the fuck dont people understand that immortality is not invincibility. Those are two totally seperate powers. If you drink from the Fountain of Youth every day for your entire life and get an enema with that shit, you will still die and stay dead if I shoot you full of holes. You could also be invincible, but not immortal, but whatever keeps you invincible might also greatly extend your life.

Unrelated to the thread, but how would you write a Samurai Jack story? SJ is a very visual series, so how would you capture its atmosphere in a written media?

>Aku says in Episode 2 that he just ages slowly because he is not in his current time so it fucks up how he ages
>People still ask if he ages weirdly now that he is back in his old time

I swear to god you redditors are fucking retards.

The whole idea of Ashi disappearing was a shit move on Genndy's part.
>only there for muh bittersweet feels ending
>Gurren Lagann but executed way worse
>started the whole timeline/erasing people from the future debate amongst the fans

I don't even like her, but I feel like he should have just kept her existing and married Jack and grown old together or whatever in a classic happy ending.

>>92896650
He doesn't say it's because he's in the wrong time, just that the "initial time travel has affected the aging process".
This does not imply anything other than the nigga aint aging

Dought it.

>Didn't want Jack to meet or find Ashi ancestor?

>>92897094
The implications there that future Aku would have survived being erased from the past would have still been there. That would have pissed off a lot of fans to, the fact that multiverse theory was in vigor and that by returning to the past Jack had condemned the future to the unopposed and never ending rule of Aku. This could have been avoided had Jack slayed Aku in the future as well, but you know, time constraints. I personally am happy with the ending we got although I would have liked too one in which Jack was forced to remain in the future.
