Was Jack the true villain of he series? His entire goal was to wipe the existence of billions in future in order to return the past. He destroyed more lives than Aku ever did.

This plot happens all the time on cartoons, movies and comics.

Why you bitch only on this case OP? Since when ending bad futures is bad?

Also, Genndy already dealed with time travel in other of his shows before, and we're of the (more common) "everyone is still there but better" kind of deal.

Technically Ashi was the villain since she's the one that actually took him back to the past without giving him a chance to even think about it.

And once he was back, what was he supposed to do? Let his family get killed by Aku?

Jack did nothing wrong. Ashi did, though.

Abortion is murder though. Sometimes killing is justified.

The entire show in a nutshell

Just because he was aware of the future he prevented doesn't make him more responsible for the nonexistence of that future than any of the other myriad futures he prevented without experiencing them. Our actions prevent the existence of incalculable lives, that doesn't make those actions murder.

You can either accept that every action potentially erases billions of lives and start your moral calculus from there, or you can accept that to commit murder the victim has to exist. Just because Jack thinks he has memories of future people doesn't make those people real.

Bruh it was never a question to go back in Jacks mind.

He made a beeline for that final portal in the flashback, he didn't think about it.
>>
>>93353307

And he prevented Aku from killing billions and the planet. Trying to spin the hero to be a villain isn't clever.
>>
>preventing existence to happen is the same as destruction

Stop it with your autismo earthly attachment. The future that is aku is nothing but a suffering driven world that jack rendered obsolete in the eyes of Time.

They were never wiped out. They never existed. Does it make sense to cry about all the people that would exist if the Axis won WWII? No, because they never existed...

I would like to erase YOUR existence.

Let's see how you would like it.

Did you even watch the series? The number of people he killed doesn't even reach double digits.
>>
>>93353307
With him going back, that means those billions never existed to begin with, so in the end the only thing he destroyed was Aku.
>>
>>93353307
Do you even understand the context? Can Jack be the villain if NONE of them would have even EXISTED in the first place if Jack defeated Aku in the past?
This kind of retarded leap in logic is basically jumping from Mt. Olympus face first into a sea of broken glass.

It's not murder if they never existed :^)
