The ENTIRE Story of Samurai Jack in 49 Minutes

[@yoyonogo6624]

I feel like you shoulda gave more attention to season 5. Yes it is very different from the Samurai Jack of old, but I honestly like how different and grown up it is, as it shows a progression from when we watched the original Samurai Jack as a kid, to watching it now as an adult. It felt like it grew up with its audience, and despite how different it was, it still kept the same feeling and spirit of the original. I really like it, and I think it’s a worthy end to one of my favorite series of all time.

[@animals44485]

Okay

[@dragonhead99]

What about the comic books? Aren't they important to the series?

[@Brendan1259]

They finnished the whole series with the game though.

[@SPlDERFlGHTER]

Shows/Movies that grow with the initial intended audience are the ones that succeed.

[@aabderrahmane]

okay…

[@ShadowDemon_4]

There's a Samurai Jack video game where they change the ending and Ashi lives a happy life with Jack. Personally I think it makes more sense because the time travel is a paradox anyway so might as well keep her alive and just say the Aku powers are gone or something.

[@Raximus3000]

In the wiki it is implied that future Aku was stuck in that dimension after his defeat and so Ashi could exist. Seeing how even Aku is vunrable to the laws of time it makes sense he cannot get out since his past self is dead without being destroyed and as long as he lives even stuck in there Ashi can exist. Bizzare but who cares.

[@df1phantom]

I was just about to mention "where that game at" 😂

[@skmbeats1993]

AMAZING

[@the_dragon_gamer8850]

@@Raximus3000time is more powerful than Aku. That’s why he targeted and succeeded in destroying every methods of time travels Jack could use. Remember, the reason Ashi existed is because her mother conceived with Aku’s sample mixed in. Trapping Aku rather than killing him the whole duration isn’t simply the solution to the time paradox. Aku has to willingly give the sample to the cult where she was born and raised in order for her to exist.

[@Raximus3000]

@@the_dragon_gamer8850 There is a time paradox regardless, why would Jack have memories of events that did not happen? Aku has power over time and he used it to create a pocket dimensio where all kind of paradoxes were possible why is one more an issue?

[@vazzeg]

Even the most action packed episodes of this absolute masterpiece were so lovingly poetic. I absolutely loved every minute of this entire series.

[@TheCommenterDragon]

I could never forget Samurai Jack! It's one of the many cartoons that made my childhood what it was!!!

[@skmbeats1993]

SO TRUE! ME TO!!!

[@chucky116]

At the end of the day this show was amazing and will live on as long as we show it to the younger generations

[@PontonFSD]

The decisions made for the timings of this summary are kinda all over the place. Spending 13 minutes on the first 3 episodes, another 13 on the the single episode "Jack, the Monks and the Ancient Master's son", but then only 2 minutes covering ALL 10 episodes of Season 5 - the season with the most non-episodic content in the 62 episodes, and no mention of the (confirmed-canon) Battle Through Time game. Some episodes (and a whole season) only get 2 minutes. Then there's the fact that many episodes people would agree are pertinent or notable to the story are completely omitted (Jack and the Three Blind Archers, Jack vs. Mad Jack, Jack and the Lava Monster, Jack vs Demongo, Jack and the Zombies, Jack and The Guardian, Jack and the Haunted House, Jack vs the Ninja, just to name a few). I mean, Scaramouche is never even mentioned in the entire video! Even the episode that many consider the best of Season 5 is completely glossed over in one sentence after introducing the Daughters of Aku (Season 5, Episode 3). Just saying, the video feels imbalanced for saying you're telling the ENTIRE story of Samurai Jack. It doesn't help that the verbiage chosen for Season 5 comes off as if the season as a whole was not liked and was antagonistic to the style of the first four seasons.

[@PositivelyPlaying]

Im almost convinced the scripts for these videos are AI generated. The wording is odd and so is the choice of words.

[@theendofthestart8179]

the grammar is pronunciation is also out of whack, and the channel is pretty soulless never replying to comments.

[@gunsandroses896]

​@@PositivelyPlayingI was looking at a summary of an episode on Fandom (ew) and he uses basically the exact same wording.

[@sebasmana5798]

Dont forget to mention that Aku’s voice actor went onto also do the voice of Uncle Iroh in Avatar The Last Airbender, and that the theme song was made by Will.I.Am, lead singer of The Black Eyed Peas

MAKO!!!!! I didn’t know that.

[@benevolentwisdom]

I am one of the older die hard fans 47:09 that grew up watching this during school and i thought the finality season they made with adult swim was absolutely brilliant. A fantastic ending to the story, tieing up lots of loose ends. Im suprised you didnt mention the episode with the portal guardian in the scrap yard that beats Jack - it was an important moment. Thanks for the recap. Would you consider maybe doing Aaahh!!! Real Monsters, X-Men: The Animated Series or Batman: The Animated Series (90's) next?

[@pheniox44]

Yeah this dude sounds like a man child if they can’t appreciate season 5 but praise 1-4 lol

[@Dr.DagNabit]

22:47 My favorite thing ever is the reference to "Lone wolf and cub" with Ogami itto fighting the guys on the bridge. Best cartoon ever.

[@zhongli2543]

[@AleksandarIvanov69]

The Scot from Samurai Jack has always been my favorite character and ignited my life-long love for the Scottish accents ♥

[@dentalproducttester9560]

Lol it’s actually an unrelated comedy post on Facebook about a Scottish woman’s experience of being a lesbian that reminded me of his wife and led me to this video 😂

[@TheturtlesageWill]

I loved this show. “ gotta get back back to the past samurai jack!”

[@paimansalih7440]

Samurai jack and the three Blind Archers is my favorite Episode in the entire show

Every voice actor was perfectly chosen

[@omaralikhan8258]

I just thought about this after all these years and I'm so flabbergasted I've never thought about it...samurai Jack's real name is......never revealed.....

[@theendofthestart8179]

neither is the Scotsman, or aku's if he has one for that matter since its just the word "evil"

[@drishtikonbyajaykumar5310]

Now after 23 years I can say after 100 years Samurai Jack will not be a story. It will be a legend and people will be debating whether it was a story of truth.

[@LuciferMorningstar-fb5ls]

I miss the old voice actor

[@nompumelolo]

In Jack's infamous word, "AKUUUUUUUUUUUUU" ❤

[@songsan807]

Watched many of the episodes back then. One of the best cartoons. Too bad they don't make cartoons like this these days. The voice actor of Aku passed away while still doing Avatar cartoons. Very hard to replace.

[@dentalproducttester9560]

A show that is very well recognised and still underrated. Perfect

[@mixmediachild2910]

This actually helped me to fully understand the show cuz I did not remember anything and then when season 5 came out I just got even more confused

[@SabrinaBri-f3x]

No jump good had me dying

[@-iloveyou]

This was truly a special show to grow up with

[@gaulac]

Finally. Thank you. We cant afford cable by that time when it was aired. I was constantly shifting the antenna in our roof to scope cartoon network. It aired 12mn if i remember. Thanks again.

[@erikaheck8261]

I was never interested in Sumarai Jack but I like this video. Thank you!

[@jaynicole4011]

Awe man I was hoping for the season 5 full recap. I know it’s more grown and isn’t as amazing as the original stuff but I think it does the ending justice. I personally love that it’s darker, I kinda always wanted the show to be a bit more intense giving the concept of the plot and all. Great video tho!!

[@megabotuploadthings]

18:04 one must imagine Jack happy

[@ShammusWammus]

Man I thought I gave you some good classics on the Fairly Odd Parents video, but you're just coming out with BANGERS that I've completely forgot about. Idk if this is within the age-range of the target audience, 2003, but Xiaolin Showdown would be awesome for you to recap.

[@bluedragon4244]

Samurai Jack was so awesome I haven’t seen this show since I was a young teenager I gotta watch it again

[@JaguarCats]

Yeah I REALLY wish they had gone with a movie to wrap up Samurai Jack as the sequel series we got years later I feel didn't truly measure up. As 1) Jack encountered a Guardian and a time portal. One that he couldn't use (yet) showing us a future version of Jack. A future we never got to see. 2) Ashi and Jack as a couple? I was worried the show might go down that route when we first saw her as Jack was technically old enough to be her father! What was more the whole relationship felt rushed! 3) Jack just giving up because Aku destroyed the last time portal? Jack's journey was about growth, development, adapting, and learning. And one thing that Jack had learned on his journey was that there's always a way. You're saying Jack learned NOTHING on his adventures? That he didn't stop to think that perhaps there are other means of time travel outside of time portals? 4) A better route might have been to expand on the image the Time Guardian showed us. (Keep in mind this is just a theory) Maybe how Jack's main mistake on his journey was that maybe, just maybe, he had to first defeat Aku in the present/time he was in now. Rid that version of Earth of his evil BEFORE going back and not just leaving those there under his tyranny. Have him learn that time travel is not a single line but branches. That defeating Aku in the past would only create a new branch, but the future he's in now would still remain the same. (Least if you want to use Avengers Endgame time travel logic) Thats why he couldn't use the portal that the Guardian was protecting, he had to first FIX the world he was in now. Raise an army (composed of all of the people he had helped over the course of his journey), start a rebellion to overthrow Aku and put a stop to his reign. I truly feel that is what the show was leading up to.

[@xt2561]

what happen to the old voice actor? I thought he is better.

[@ezergilechimekazikura6855]

The mistake of the ending is the same as in Terminator all the way back to it's first installment. If the cause of an event that is a cause for the future being removed via time traveling, there have to exist two timelines in continuum, one which had the event happen and cause the time travel, and other one, that snaps out of the point of convergence of timelines after the interferance is made from the future. Jack was sent into that initial future by Aku which was shown in the last episode of the series, thus authentificating the entire journey and establishing the timeline happening as it was shown. When Jack returns and slays Aku there and then, the new timeline is created, and Ashi should not have disappeared from it, or she should not have disappeared alone. Simple reason for it is, both Jack and Ashi are not from that new timeline, so with the logic adopted by the series, they should've gone into a Shrodinger's cat superposition state where they either shifted the timeline or didn't, and that makes no sense because time around them moves on, so only one outcome can take place within a timeline. What actually happened is that they originated from timeline A, went back, changed the future by defeating Aku, and thus created timeline B, and since Past Jack was already sent into the Timeline A by the point of their arrival, continuity was not broken, so neither of them should've disappeared. In that, corrected iteration of the timeline, if they still wanted to have a tragic ending, they could've make Aku realize his connection to Ashi as he did in the timeline A, and make him subdue her to use as an anchor to the world and a means of confronting Jack, forcing the latter to make one final sacrifice of forsaking his love to save the world, pushed to that decision by encouragement given to him by Ashi, who would resist Aku's will just enough to speak to Jack, reminding him of what must be done and of the love she held for him. Thus we would have the same outcome that did not mess up the timeline and agitate geeks like me who've read too many interpretations of time travel stories to find a better concept than the one illustrated.

To be honest the end of season 4 should end with with the fight with the portal guardian. its the only fight jack loses and the portal itself shows the future of jack after his loss. They really should of called back to it in season 5.
