Good I actually want a wife who exists.

>>377774397
Show was only ever good when it had punished jack

babby tier romance shit was garbo

Nothing beats the first couple episodes.

After that it went downhill. Ending wasn't terrible, but the action after the first 2 or 3 episodes was certainly not as intense or choreographed as well.

They didn't even do anymore panel splitting beyond the first 2 episodes.

/tg/ material but DnD can fill that void in a sense.

I ran a single person campaign and made every session like it's own little episode, that was pretty close to how Jack does it. Assuming you can find another person and be alright with, well you know not an actual game I say give that a shot.

Holy shit youre right. That guy was rushed for a plot and didn't want to make it good

>>377772710
That was maybe the worst ending I've seen in years. I'm still ass mad about it. Not only do thy shoehorn a terrible romance into the story but then say "fuck it" last second and make all those people Jack helped not exist? What a fuck you to fans.

I won't but I'll say I am, have a picture before I go.

>>377776627
Then I just described both endings, because essentially the same thing happens, it's just that the show doesn't shove it in your face that Aku's defeat fixed everything.

>>377776556
With Aku dead all those aliens/robots would never have come to earth. Literally every character doesn't exist now that Aku never colonized the ending.

You know what would have been a great moral dilemma? I f Jack questioned if he even wants to defeat Aku and reverse the life he has lived. What if he didn't know if he actually wants to return to the past with his family or stay in the future, defeat Aku there, and live with all the people that loved him him. That would've been interesting.

But no. They added a terribly developed romance then just leave it on a bitter note for what felt like nothing more then a dumb twist.

>>377776979

They never would have come to Earth. Literally everyone Jack knew doesn't exist anymore.

>>377776975
Why would everyone just no longer exist just because the world isn't shit?

Best Jack simulators are MGR for slicing robot people into a million pieces and Ninja Gaiden Black for having a character with a magic evil-killing sword that starts in a feudal japan (looking) prologue before moving into a fantasy-futuristic city environment for the rest of the game.

>>377772710
>lol gurren lagann ending except Ashi doesn't even get to the altar
>Doesn't get to say a happy goodbye, just "I'm a paradox, shit" before disappearing
>Jack doesn't disappear despite the specific instance of him also being a paradox

>>377776179
Yeah, if they wanted to do the bittersweet ending they should have done it the other way around and have Jack stuck in the future forever but he gets to live with his waifu and all the friends he made in a liberated future.

>>377776179
If that's the worst ending then you must not watch a lot of shit in the first place. That ending was *just* okay. It was an ending. I'd say it's one of the most disappointing endings ever if this show was never cancelled for years and thought to be completely dead.

If this ending made anyone realize anything, it's that who actually gives a FUCK if Jack is ever going to beat Aku. The episodic stories, artstyles, and direction were the best part about the show. When it now focuses on the plot, it needs to have an ending that does the show justice. Which it didn't. All it did was end the story.

Well that's because she knew what to do.

Still the finale should have been stretched over two episodes at least, I think. It felt way too compressed for one.

>>377777615

Everyone else was like "ow shit" and got knocked off whatever they were riding instead of being visibly impaled despite the ratings allowing it.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QKaxB-H1Ngw
Notice how in all these fights Aku changes form a lot, which makes for a very great fight. People expected the final fight to be even better, but instead we got Ashit taking up all the screentime, Ashit fighting Aku instead of Jack, and Ashit sending a time portal before Jack even had a chance to fight future Aku like we all anticipated.
When Jack finally got to fight Aku, it was very anticlimatic. The whole 'YOU'RE BACK ALREADY' and the fight being over in 30 seconds made the whole scene a joke. I truly did expect a fight akin to the graveyard Aku fight scene since Jack lost his sword again, but instead we got a bunch of lousy fanservice and power of love moments. And on top of all of that, Jack's father and the people who trained him didn't even age like how they did in the pilot. Wasn't Jack's father supposed to be really old?

The ending is complete shit. Samurai Jack deserves better. I'm so fucking angry, the whole thing was like one big fanfiction, minus the first few episodes.

They could have had a last time portal aku lied about instead, the one with the guardian. He hadn't actually managed to kill him, just hide him away.

To get to it he has to beat future aku with the help of all his friends. Then he has to 1v1 the guardian and go back and fight Aku in the past with Ashi. Then the future gets to live without Aku, and Samurai jack starts a new timeline without Aku.

>>377772710
The 4th season started off amazing. Everything up to episode 8 was really good. But 9 and 10 ruined it.

I didn't mind jack falling in love or any of that. But I would have wanted jack to be married and live happily or be miserable. Not this weird in between thing.

The last 10 seconds could have been a much older jack going to go fight the Guardian of his era to go to ashi. Or something I don't know.

>>377781370
You don't have to be able to kill aku to make him fuck off. Also we know the portal can relocate itself, why wasn't guardian in hiding from Aku until jack beats him then he instantly appears because he no longer has to hide.

>>377781532
>You will never be this edgy

>>377780534
>people watched for the plot
The main reason the show was good was that it was episodic. Gave a good world to develop through stories and interactions
The moment it was revealed to be an arc should've been warning bells. The main reason people jerk off the first three/four edgy eps was because it was still somewhat episodic nomadic samurai jack that we enjoyed, just now with punished jack.
Transitioning back to plot was done bad, not solely Ashi but damn pacing too. More episodes to do final fight and develop Jack losing his grit+justify romance
Still was a fun ride with /co/ no matter how disappointing ep 10 was. It was fun.
>>377781334
The call back one too?
Thst stuff was good too. Got to see older characters, see how Jack was influential to them, had some charm even with the female plot device.

>>377781532

It should have ended with Ashi turning into Aku in a wedding dress.

>>377781467
>You don't have to be able to kill aku to make him fuck off.
You absolutely have to be able kill Aku to make him fuck off. He just tanks it otherwise.

As for the portal, it really depends on when Aku got to the Guardian. We know he obsessively monitors Jack for the first four seasons so that's probably how he found out about the portal & the Guardian to begin with. Is that something you'd just leave laying around?

I don't know if anyone felt this way. but it felt like the writers putting Aku in a slump would later reveal a side to him that would eventually evolve to a more hot blooded final boos.

He still didn't really seem to take thing serious, it sort of took the gas out of the ending battle.

It was a joke. That was intended to be hilarious and it was. Aku was also completely drained from fighting Jack so it made sense.

ashit is truly the lightning of samurai jack. ruined the entire season when she got the screen time, it was such a shame too, the first 3 episodes were fucking great balls to the wall action. The ending really should have been 2-3 episodes to properly flesh it out, instead we get an ending that felt compressed and rushed like western game endings, it's a shame they fucking wasted so many episodes on ashit.

With Jack's loved one as a "hostage" and his sword taken away, Jack can't do shit, hence like the graveyard fight except with higher stakes. Like another anon said, Aku not taking the last battle seriously really made everything feel weak.

>>377782521
Maybe he secretly gets off on it and does it on purpose whenever he thinks he's about to die so he can have one last moment of pleasure.

Not really, the only episodes I thought were weak were the episodes with the little kid monsters being driven mad by the high frequency noise, and the one with the alien slug monster thing. Both of those had rather lackluster conclusions and mediocre action.

However I think the rest of the season was great. The episode where Jack meditates to find his sword, for example; just superb stuff.The last two episodes in particular felt like a nice, thematically fitting conclusion with everyone fighting for Jack. I think the last few minutes were rushed, and I think overall the season had a few odd pacing hiccups. But I'm not going to act like the first three episodes were just perfection. Honestly the pilot was one of the weaker episodes in the show, given that we had some repetitive scenes that served no purpose.

You know that's just Aku in general, right? Aku's never once manned the fuck up unless the deck is stacked in his favor. Even when he's fought people other than Jack, if they can actually hurt him, he runs.
>>377778721
Past!Aku is on death's door and fighting a Jack who's 50 years stronger and more experienced. Did you really expect Aku to be able to put up a fight?
>Wasn't Jack's father supposed to be really old?
Yes, and no. Age but also dealing with living under Aku, who almost certainly wasn't kind to him. Considering that the dude had a year or so to recover before the wedding (I can't fathom how Robin Hood gets there any faster), the guy was probably able to get back in shape. Dude's still a bald mofo.

Especially since those people gave their lives (or were willing to) to stop Aku. That was the point, they were inspired by Jack and were willing to give it all to stop Aku. Jack had their memories at the end, so it wasn't like everyone just forgot their sacrifice.

>>377782823
>I figured it was a callback to Birth of Evil, but his death confused me as well.
Aku getting sucked into the sword has been a thing since the pilot.

For the people who keep bitching about the ending, just go and read the comic and pretend that is canon. I'm personally satisfied with the way the show ended despite the slow decline after episode 3, I mean it could have been pulled off better but it did okay. Season 5 should have been a movie like originally intended, maybe it wouldn't feel so rushed in certain places. The comic is pretty good too. I think the comic was going as season 5 until an actual season was revealed.

>>377782937
Yeah but why does stabbing it into the ground kill Aku when his dad did the same shit in Birth of Evil?

Also Ashi just grabbing the sword by the blade was a bit weird, given that Aku is part of her.

>>377782823
>Especially since those people gave their lives (or were willing to) to stop Aku.
Actually it's even sweeter than that. Aku played the original intro for them, remember? They knew full well if Jack succeeded, they were fucked out of existing. It was a complete no win situation for all of them and they knew it.

They fucking came anyway.

Exactly, I love that shit. Really felt like everyone was putting their lives on the line. I love that Aku's gloating was meant to drive everyone into despair, but instead it just galvanized them into rushing in to help.

Also people can hate on Ashi all they want but her Aku form was great. Felt like Jack fighting Inque from Batman Beyond.

>>377783001
>Yeah but why does stabbing it into the ground kill Aku when his dad did the same shit in Birth of Evil?
Probably because Jack technically gave Aku another beatdown just seconds after the last one. Chances are Aku can only take so much punishment before he just stays down.
>Also Ashi just grabbing the sword by the blade was a bit weird, given that Aku is part of her.
Aku can handle the sword just fine actually it just fucks him up if it actually cuts him.

>>377783167
He can touch the hilt, he can't touch the blade. She just grabs that shit.

>The last two episodes in particular felt like a nice, thematically fitting conclusion with everyone fighting for Jack
Ever since Episode 6 the whole montage of old character shtick just felt like a cheap way to do fanservice. If it was just one or two characters and maybe a couple of references it would have been fine, but no the whole thing just comes off as "Hey, remember THIS character from that episode you liked? Yeah here he/she is! Yup, just showing this character from THAT episode", it didn't flowed right, it just felt like all the characters just got crammed into what little episode they got left just for the sake of referring them.

I do agree that it was nice to see all his friends appearing in the last episode to help him, and it does make sense this time around since Aku was broadcasting Jack's defeat around the world. But all that stuff went out the shitter the moment Ashi went full Mary Sue. Even with the right stuff, everything just went sour because of that one character.

I really fucking liked the shot of Aku holding Jack's sword in triumph with a defeated Jack slumped and with his head down at the end of episode 9

I really don't understand this. If you want to throw shade at her, call her a Scrappy. As it stands it just comes across like you wanted this season to be Jack wandering around, brooding and dark and edgy.

Also the fanservice was constrained to just that one episode, which was primarily about Jack feeling like he failed his mission. Appropriate place to have all the people he impacted, imo.

>>377783718
>he hates kino

Wew feels pretty good being an adult who doesn't care about cartoons, otherwise I might give a shit.

>>377782823
You are missing the point m8.

Just because they doesn't exist (yet) that doesn't mean it was a bad thing. If anything entertainment media have taught us is that rewriting the time line to defeat the big bad usually never means bad shit.

The characters just simply haven't existed yet, but will exist when their time have come and will usually live out a better life. Especially with the big bad gone.

People who think the ending was good fail to realize that it completely ignores the question of Jack's effects on the future. He saved countless lives and people venerate him as their savior, yet everything he did and everyone he became friends with no longer exists and none of it matters.

They should have stuck to the 'no more portals left' plot or at least emphasize the crushing weight of him knowing he would have to leave behind everything to fulfill his mission.

Anyways, there's no point complaining about what actually happened because the show could not have gotten any kind of proper conclusion in just 10 episodes.

You obviously do care

>>377775878
actually holy shit way of the samurai 1 is as close to samurai jack as you can get and its a great game

>>377783602
The point throughout the series is wherever Jack goes, he makes friends because he's a cool guy who fights the good fight and everyone has the same goal as him: to punch the asshole.
That's why everyone was fighting together.

>>377780001
Metal Gear Rising

>>377783206
Of course it's first person. You want to BE a samurai or not? It takes a little more than "mash buttons to perform an epic combo" to sell being a samurai to me.

>>377784090
The purpose of Jack's whole adventure is to go back into the past and UNDO all of the evil Aku has done. How is this hard to understand? His efforts did matter in the end because many of the people Jack helped actually came in and assisted him in the final battle, he would have already been killed if it weren't for them. I can see how staying in the future can allow the viewer to learn the moral of looking forwards to the future, but that also betrays the whole purpose of Jack's journey and in a way, betray the viewer's expectations and desires.

>>377783950
>As it stands it just comes across like you wanted this season to be Jack wandering around, brooding and dark and edgy.

Jesus christ can there be a middle ground? Criticize Ashi and someone just gotta come out screaming "Well you just want the show to be edgy because obviously you don't want any happiness for Jack."

Don't criticize her and you get branded as a shippingfag that doesn't care about the show at all.

No you fool, I don't care that Ashi was introduced into the last season, hell I don't even care that she became Jack's love interest. All I am livid about is HOW she was written.

The entire conclusion, the key to the Protagonist's dilemma being HER was just shoddy writing.

I wonder how Snafu will draw this up.

>ctrl+f Dust

Dust: An Elysian Tail is a pretty solid wandering warrior type game. It's relatively short, and there are magic options, but essentially you're a hyper competent swordsman destine to save the world. It's a pretty fun game, get it on sale or torrent it.

TRIGGER WARNING: Maybe a little Furry

>>377784469
You didn't criticize Ashi though, you just called her a Mary Sue. Your current post does a better job of getting into issues like how she was written; write more like that and less with buzzwords and you won't get called out.

No that's bullshit, there's a number of places Aku has been shown to be unable to go or reach. Even if some of them is because Aku just doesn't know about them or how to reach them. "make aku fuck off" does not have to be about hitting him.

depends on what you like about the series

Like the lone wanderer, action packed, dialogue minimum, dangerous lands, tactics on your feet aspect of samurai jack?

Unironically, the souls series is the best for you that I have seen, it obviously does not have the physicality or acrobatics of samurai jack, but it has the other aspects

I'm really not joking, I've loved both series for a long time.

It's very comparable to jack in that you play as a silent swordsman and you spend quite a bit of time walking from one area to another just admiring the scenery, plus a lot of the enemies feel like they could be from Samurai Jack

After each dream hos waifu would disappear and not exist

The waifu disappears after his adventure is finished just like his waifu disappeared after each aventure

We all felt his pain

I thought it was a case of rock paper scissors. Guy was a master duelist so he one-upped jack because he's better at it and the sword is just another weapon in that fight, and then hubris or something probably made blue nigga think he had a chance against aku.
