Jack's Father versus Aku | Samurai Jack | Adult Swim 

Children cartoon follows anime logic

Reptile25991 the castlevania series is arguably the best kind to introduce someone into the idea of anime.

@@giraffedragon6110 it's western anime. The cringey throw aways of chibi perversion, and unnecessary monologuing of the heart of the cards aren't apparent.

spenpinner exactly why I say it’s a good introduction to show them “this ain’t kids stuff” without going into the super gorey anime

I wouldn't consider that honorable so much as just naive. Jack was honorable all the same while still being cunning, because he fought for the right reasons. At the end of the day, fighting for the right reasons is more important than gloating at your opponent.

yea honestly the finale was really rushed and they could have made it way cooler and more memorable kinda disappointing but were lucky we got a season 5

I mean it’s about the journey even if it was anti climatic

Its a gi, bro. :/

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.

Jack's dad needed tons of buffs to stand a chance, Jack grinded so much he practically was overleveled to this earth and beyond.

Still doesn't look as difficult as Sister Friede

Friede and Ariandel (4x hp) vs Aku.

Still had to grind more for a blue guardian. That boss was a lower level but had better AI.

Stupid ass friede and the paralitic dad had me dying over and over

Isshin The first Sword Saint, Bruh that is much harder than Sister Friede

"What is this? What form of insect is this???"

Lol

A foolish fly warrior has sent out to defeat me

Especially the lazer vision

@@calebpresley8743 No, specially the part where you split into thousands of little selves to outnumber the fly and finally kill it

From some of the themes in Season 5, his anger might actually be what's impeding him.

@@TheAttacker732 hm, was that when he had the bike?

@@darkwolfderai3920 I was referring to Jack's father. It is implied that spiritual balance is necessary to get the most out of the sword. What if Jack's father didn't have that in this fight?

@@TheAttacker732 actually that’s the theme of the mad Jack episode.

Jacks father knew at this time he was not strong enough to defeat AKU. His mission was to trap AKU and by time to figure out how to defeat AKU. As time grew he couldn’t figure it out. But had a plan in place that when he did return jack was there only hope.

Asian dis Kool Worked for the Olympians. :P

Dennis Taylor God Of War flashbacks incoming.

RuBiK lmao

If they came they would likely destroy the planet bexause of their immense proportions...

They can change their size, yorick mori. We already saw Ra and Odin in past episodes, being much smaller than when they faced the Black Mass.

Jack 's fatjert be more scared if the fight turned into a porn video

Well tentacle shit i love

😂

*Oh no*

PTSD from Sekiro intensifies.

They just keep using the same scream XD

Except the mortal blade from sekiro could probably kill aku

@@RegularFish2 the while fright would be a series of death glyph prompts. Though I would love to see Aku going full Dormamu.

When enemy player is a counter class to your play style

Me when I see a bee and it decides to sting me.

I wouldn't put it past Aku to have forgotten about it.

Matthew Hair: Yeah, he is a pretty forgetful one.

He didn't recognize the sword at first

Exactly.

The Birth of Evil: “No mortal blade can harm m- AAAAAARRRRGGH” *2 Seasons Earlier, But a Few Years Later in Chronological Order* “No mortal can hurt the great Aku- NEEEYYAAAAAGGGG”

@ it took him 50 years to figure it out.

😂😂😂😂

Jack's father kicked ass and doesn't hesitate on attacking Aku.

And yet it was jack who killed aku.

Jack never lost to Aku in a fight lol. What are you talking about?

I know right? When I saw that part my only thought was "My man, you could've slashed him at LEAST 3-4 times during all that."

He had to find a good spot

I don't think his dad knew he had to just keep slicing into Aku. It's like he was looking for a specific weak point.

1:25 BAAAAAAAHHH!!! 👿

Classic but Epic.

He seems pure of heart to me lol.

That or the nimbus has a sister

@@macmcskullface1004 what

@@raccshop it's a dragon ball joke

he should have gone Super Sayion ...

Bluepugjr lmao yes

Antonio Viramontes Lazy fawks.

It's for purpose

KOZER KOG Nope. They was lazy.

Mako (Aku’s original voice actor) was an older man. He probably couldn’t strain his voice any further so they decided to just re-use one scream.

Really goes to show just how dangerous while at the same time subpar Aku is when you remember that he’s only a small part of something so much greater.

But in the last part he is about to fight like a human. But yeah in general.

@@VarietySeth dude what the actual f..... I love db but why you use it as an example? The comment is about Samurai Jack series and what the sword can cut in the series it never said that can cut every fictional villian... It works with Aku because Aku's power are supernatural him himself is a supernatural creature the sword can cut him for that reason.

@@VarietySeth so... you can't answer properly and you're using technisism and the old "hope you know what that means" to defend yourself? My answer wasn't even rude yet you tell me to calm down lol I don't want to start an argument over a RU-vid comment so I'll leave it that way but yeah bad answer and bad example xD have a nice day man.

@@VarietySeth just to not leave the bad taste I didn't want to sound rude in my first answer so I'm sorry for that, have a good day.

Excellent analysis 10/10

In some alternative time Aku kills him while he’s talking and throws the sword into orbit

Well it is the only weapon capable of harming him, so of course he would be interested.

@@RainIncorporated in this time Aku is dumb lol

Like a good scholar, A-ku is there!

​@@JeffCJY lmao

This makes me think that either the gods truly trust Jack's ability so they only gave him a gi and a sword, or they just didn't give a crap to give him more buffs and surprised with the outcome.

Jack trained from the best Warriors and cultures the world has known since he was a child. When in the future, he trained even more to go into near super Human ability (Learning to Jump Good, for example) and fight machines of exceptional speed, durability and stopping power.

Jack was turned into a god.

Jack's father is a level 50 character with full end game equipment. While Jack is a level 120 character with only one end game weapon and has thousands of hours of gameplay under his belt.

@@JeffCJY so dark souls?

In Greek and Nordic mythology gods were known for being memers

Lord Rama was an avatar of the supreme, yet he took mortal(human) form to destroy the demons! Cause he wanted to establish that the human spirit of righteousness can conquer evil and darkness! *Or maybe cause he was bored and wanted to beat some ass with the hardest difficulty level!* 😅

Maybe you are the Green Ninja

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..

@@sanjivinsmoke2719 You don't need to go so deep to conclude why gods didn't fight Aku directly!! 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! What I find funny about Aku that even if he had insane powers he was still vulnerable to depression, just like a normal human being!

*Y e s*

One: destroy all evil

@@axelnilsson5124 correction 2: harm no good

Smite Level X

@@clintonanderson7436 3:Can't Affect Good

TayoEXE they also cut it shorter because budget cuts wouldn’t let them have the cloud back

Not to worry I'm sure jack still hangs out with the Scott's man

@@Kleebo dude scottsman aint even born yet, it was that level of sadness.

Ashi still discovered her power out of nowhere and instantly knew how to use it. That is a load of horse shit.

to me i feel all the people in the timeline would be fine no longer existing if it meant the newer timeline didn't have to suffer like they did

That's what made Aku such a great villain. He wasn't just a joke or 100% serious all the time. He would flip at an instant and you always knew what he was capable off. So unless Jack was there, there was ALWAYS tension like how Aku sends a kid to the pit of sorrows or has no issue killing the Scotsman despite being depressed.

@@raahim11 Absofuckinlutely. He was so wonderfully consistent; he could be absolutely hilarious one scene and utterly badass and terrifying the next, and it NEVER felt unnatural or forced.

That's what 100000 of years of pure universal domination does to a MoFo. Once you've won everything you either mellows out in pure borenes or strive for something new

Imagine yourself in Aku place. You are immortal being that can’t be harmed by any weapon. No wonder why he found humor as way to make life less boring

Fred the fish from Spongebob Aku wasn’t prepared for the fight so he attempted to run away before Jack killed him.

Aku was already defeated when Jack killed him, since Jack traveled back to the time exactly after he had just defeated Aku.

lmao I honestly thought after the time skip the Sa Moh Rah i trained to become a real samurai and that he would appear to help Jack alongidr the other filler characters like Scotman n the Super Jump Monkeys

@@localdude2979 Not gonna lie, I was kinda hoping for that too..

Mr.awesome Reacts I mean yeah in the context of the fight it made sense how it went. But it as still super anti climactic. The story should have been written where a proper confrontation could be had between jack and aku. Both with words and a badass fight.

Honestly every time i see a people having such profile picture i check them so i see that some has subscribed merry weather king vegeta and such channels even o did and understand how much men of culture u are and i ma glad

Meanwhile Deku:...

Best example : Baki

@@ototurmanidze5578 "men of culture"

@@youssefyasser9621 best example: yujiro's father

For him it’s like that

bruh i didnt mean to steal this joke

2:53

The season 5 final fight should’ve been similar to this

Gotta show off a little first.

It's called carefully planning when to attack, because Aku cannot be defeated by spamming attacks alone.

Aku for Smash Bros!

Bill Cipher is even more OP, he's an evil divine lovecraftian entity from another dimension, capable of destroying galaxies with a thought. He would crush Aku like a bug.

offset

Cocaine

Just lazy animators

Smol

@@afungai1649 Not laziness, errors are in pretty much every show

Honestly me

Drannion Entertainment sadly, this is true.

Well the season 5 finale was kind of just a wrap up of the battle samurai jack had with aku in season one so it would be as epic

Drannion Entertainment no way

Yeah I was very disappointed that we never got a battle with aku and jack like this one if you can call what we got a "final battle".

Blame ashi

Long ago in a distant land, I jack the destroyer of Aku ruled after my father, but i know aku will appear once again in the future......

Made me wish that the series will end with an epilogue episode that took place in an Aku-less future where remnants of Aku's forces attempted to revive him (I mean, you can't permanently stop evil itself), only to be stopped by the Scotsman and Jack's descendant. I guess it would be a better payoff since the future is kinda forgotten after Aku's defeat. I know that the future will ceased to exist like Ashi but at least show a glimpse of the future without Aku.

KrystCyclone just because aku was destroyed doesn’t mean Jack can age the first time travel affected his ability to age so basically Jack can’t die from age which means it would still be Jack and the Scotsman

So jacks a preacher instead of a samurai?

Are they just reusing the same scream?

@@batmanbeyond6815 Akus original voice actor Mako was an older man,he probably couldnt strain his voice so they reused

Made me want to keep press the minute buttons a lot lol 😂

Not really. Aku had 1000s of years ago after this fight before Jack fought him agyears4 Jack was also beyond Human as an adult. Jacks father was trained in a single fighting style, while jack mastered literally all fighting styles of the world from his time, and then continuously fought super robots and demons for 50 years, learned tricks like "Jump Good". Jack was not just a jack of all trades, he was a master of all. While Jack's father was a master of one.

No Aku Was new back then Aku was just as dangerous, arguably more in the future For Jack who fought him countless times, he simply gained the experience to anticipate how to fight him, with skill and strategy as besides his prowess, Jack Is an ordinary human Jack’s father was a seasoned Daimyo when he was given the Sword, and was included armor and a nimbus, and came close to defeat Aku

Because

It

Because tbe first episode was like this. Jack came back at the very end where aku was very weak

@@CoffeeSuccubus Well its not like they needed to make Jack return to the past at the exact same moment he left. They could have made him return some time after that when Aku was at full power again and have Jack and Aku have a battle like this in his city and show him save his parents and people.

CyberLance26 I can only assume that since Ashi had no idea when they were going, Jack had to choose for them. It makes the most sense for Jack to choose to go back and fight Aku when Aku is already severely weakened

Aku always has a sense of humor even in the original show. Wtf are you talking about?

@@Wiiware2568 yeah but it wasn't the only thing about him that made him awesome. The first few episodes of the show where he was introduced he was basically introduced as a vile evil sadistic demon. Over the course of the episodes and seasons he started to become less evil and more about just fucking around with Jack and making snarky little jokes. In this episode and the episode where he returns years later he was an evil son of a bitch that killed people and just felt like torturing Jack.

Aku in season 5 feels like such a miss opportunity, goofy is fine but he's just a stupid clown.

@@kushkungvivo744 Considering how dark the other main villains of the season (the Cult of Aku) are, it was probably for the best.

@@madmanwebster94 I guess it's the fact that Aku had technically won in the past, and many years of ruling the world without anyone that could actually represent a threat to him changed Aku's personality, he has it all so therefore he doesn't care about anything and the world already fears him so he doesn't have to act like a literal monster, he just doesn't care anymore, unless it is related to Jack.

BLYAT !

Then cut the scream to it's funny

Basically how it goes every time my parents and in laws meet

Aku’s no father yet

At first

He was gifted the nimbus and armor from the gods
