      You know Aku was about to receive the final blow right before future(or present) Jack, who is a lot of times stronger than present/past Jack, came from the future?
      Aku was doomed against the old Jack, he already used about all of his power to face him, so he was way too tired to even try to face the same warrior, but better in every single possible way.
      and well, he DID try to flight since he couldn't fight anymore, but future Jack didn't let him go away with that bs.
      and to be fair, the chase was rather pretty long considering he was defeated.

    It took me a bit of thinking to understand how the sword works despite what was said.
    The sword is forged from 3 Monk gods. Made with spiritual power it can cut through anything physical and spiritual. Created for one purpose, used for every purpose. By cutting Aku, it forces him to use his power to heal himself. This however, weakens him. With each blow he becomes weaker, until being wrapped around the sword and laid to the ground, tired and weak.

      My theory is that Aku might devourer gods if they fought him making him a cosmic scale threat.. problem the gods can't risk that as it was a very hard fought battle last time.. Aku literally was devourering the entire creation.. it took everything from Ra Vishnu and Odin to stop him and end.. keep in mind that version is still Aku but weak but still powerfull with so many abilities like telechinisis , elemental abilities, size and matter manipulation ,time manipulation, regeneration, immorality, invulnerability only venurable to the sword, intangibility.. FTP travel like in the hunter episode where he just casually goes to edge of some galaxy and returns like in seconds.. he people really belive that Aku is just some random villan ready to be defeated but in reality he's the most powerful being in his verse with only divine beings able to even inflict damage.. like nothing can stop Aku except from deity's but still he's op enough to kill them.. a personification of darkness and chaos born in the heart of darkness.. it's not worth killing him if he takes out just 1 deity causing imbalance in the universe so that's why they entrust mortals to take him out..

      The original dark entity that the gods fought was created along with the universe, it didn't even resemble Aku at that time other than that pitch-black color!
      God destroyed it, only a small mindless part of that entity escaped and reached the earth and kept absorbing everything that came into contact with it ensuring it's growth! At this point, this thing was basically a mindless threat and could have been easily contained!!
      It was the human-made poison that gave it life & mind! Hence it had a Japanese 👺 mask-like face! Something that even Aku thanked the Emperor for in a way (Aku never killed him)
      Gods can't fight a thing that was made alive by humans, we need to fight it on our own. Gods can provide us the weapons, motivation, strength. But in the end, only our righteousness and will to overcome can defeat the poisonous-evil that we created with our own hand!
      This was the message of Samurai Jack!
      Devouring the Gods a vague idea that sounds like SCP Scarlett king, even he only able to devour some gods who didn't have a conscious while other smart ones escaped & eventually helped to lock him away!
      If the gods had defeated a cosmic entity that is made of a fabric of darkness, then Aku is just a ripped string!

  • @TayoEXE
    @TayoEXE 4 роки тому +622

    "Why didn't we get a battle like this for the finale?"
    Well, we did, actually. Think about it. The heroic spirit of one man and this sword alone was not enough to defeat Aku. Jack had spent 50 years using this blade that was forged only to do good, and he only ever used it for that purpose until he lost his hope and way eventually. When he was restored and worthy to wield this blade again, he now had allies in the form of all those he had saved using this sword whom without he would have never been able to defeat Aku. Even Ashi, Aku's daughter, was changed by Jack, and she was the key to finally returning to the past. We think it's sad that the future seems to be gone, but it clearly existed as it was all for that moment to finally stop Aku once and for all.
    The sword's purpose for being forged is very important and a key theme to understanding why Jack finally finished what his father couldn't yet.

    The guys who made this are great with the story-telling. I love that we see the fight from Aku's side, and it is akin to a person trying to swat an annoying insect.
    Then we see it from Jack's father, where he's basically zipping around in a way where the horizon is constantly shifting around him, giving proper scale of his experience fighting aku
    Great use of perspective and horizon

    Jack’s father really is such a well crafted and fleshed out character.
    He really embodies great wisdom, fortitude, grit, and more that comes from a great leader/emperor.
    Also his facial expression when he remembered his wife screaming. Whoa! *Made my spine tingle*
    Also I really enjoyed the choreography put into the scene’s animation with Jack’s father riding the cloud and darting around Aku like a fly with many evasive maneuvers. The horseback riding, showing how well trained he is on horseback. Also the sword clanging with the strikes just hurting Aku with each hit :)
    There is also Aku with his early developed laugh as overly confident he cannot be harmed. Then his fits of infuriated rage were delivered so well by Mako in this encounter here.
    This series is a masterpiece of animation and deeply creative imagination from Genndy Tartakovsky with his assimilated team. Stupendous work!
