After 16 years, I expected more of the same or a crescendo for the end. But it's just a massive letdown. Aku, the literal essence of evil now sounds like a rabi from NY, has self-doubts and just moans and whines all the time. His minions are nowhere to be seen except for one who is just stuck on "repeat' with the catch phrases. The scottish sidekick has 20+ daughters of the same age, the he dies, but not quite, and he has... magic bagpipes stronger than Aku's magic. /!\ Jack is an emotional wreck, lots of unnecessary drama about details but then he falls is love with a female assassin sent to kill him and they have... awkward moments. /!\ Good grief! In the age of cinematic reboots, even this has been plowed over in ordet to make a buck. The producers should've just let the it end with the original seasons. Utterly disappointing.
... View MoreI was born in 1996, but I never watched Samurai Jack as a kid. A few months before I was searching for a series to pass the time, and I found this series, adventure of a warrior who wants to get home. Samurai Jack, in my opinion is a masterpiece. It tells the story of a man who lost everything, but he saves hundreds of lives during his journey, he gives hope to others. In the 5th season, we see the broken, hopeless samurai, who lost his hope and almost his mission.It's not a perfect series for sure. But the ending, my friends, the last few minutes of the last episode, was pure perfection. It was a roller-coaster of emotions without a single word have been spoken. The hope he gave, he got it back. I think this is just one of my favorite seasons of all time.You got back. Back to the past. Samurai Jack.
... View MoreIt was really awesome. This is deserves 8.5 rating. New season was also great. Except it's ending. It was too sad and have logical errors (Ashi was need to disappear when Aku died but he disappeared in the wedding). Just because of this two reason, mostly for first reason, i am rating it as 7.
... View MoreSamurai Jack is up there with some of my favourite animated series because it's a show with great action, science fiction, fantasy, animation and good vs. evil. It tells the story of an extremely skilled samurai warrior with a magic sword is sent far into the future by the evil shapeshifter, Aku and the samurai, who goes by the name Jack, must travel the world in search for a way back to the past and defeat Aku while being hunted by Aku's bounty hunters and minions and helping those in need. It's not hard to see why Samurai Jack was a success with both critics and audiences and how it won 4 Primetime Emmy Awards. Most of the episodes are brilliant but some of my favourite episodes are "Ultra Robots", "The Beginning" and "The Spartans". And I'm also glad that they decided to bring back Samurai Jack after over a decade and make new episodes and a whole new season and hopefully it will end Jack's journey and maybe we will finally get see Jack return to the past and defeat Aku and we could also find out what Jack's real name is as well.
