      Intriguing point. Aku cheated this Prophecy by changing into a man, even though he isn't. Maybe I should have depicted somebody else coming along to defeat him only for his Journey to be stopped by Aku. After all, Aku did say he *E R A D I C A T E D* all of the time Portals.

    Dude, imagine if this played out in the actual show, just after jack got his sword back.
    We all would have thought he made it back to the guardian, then next thing, this plays out. We all get deceived by Aku and watch him fight the guardian to his last stand. I think season 5 lacked a proper Aku fight,(with his transformations, etc)
    The guardian looks into the portal while dying, and sees the future of Jack returning to the past,but we don’t see it.
    Then it cuts back to jack finding the broken portal in the future.

      Well there you go, the fans and myself have done the job for you.
      Also on the topic of the lack of a proper Aku fight in Season 5, I should note that we already had the previous four seasons full of those fights and also Season 5 is more of a character study on Jack which I consider essential for the more mature tone of that season.

      @@ScotsThinker Dude awesome job. You have his ability to play with the length of the syllables of the words! The only thing I would have changed is some of his dialogue just a teeny bit. Like, instead of "You will pay for this!" I feel he would have said, "You shall pay for your insubordination!" (But like, that "Aku" way of saying, "IN-SUB-OR-DIN-A-TION," with that quick, slightly slushy inhale through saliva right before that word.) Like, other than that little nitpick... it does justice to both characters here, and is definitely canon to me.
      Samurai Jack was something my brother and I would watch as kids, but we loosened our interest a bit when school took priority. But one of my Dad's friends really liked the show, and I remembered liking him, but he died in a motorcycle accident. (They are all motorcycle buddies, it's why they are friends.) And my dad ended up getting all his Samurai Jack dvds, and we watched them...
      I really care about narratives, and it's hard to see something like Tolkien's LotR be butchered by Amazon, and it was hard to watch what I hesitantly call the final season of Samurai Jack, and I like justice to be done to characters in these stories, because in a way, those characters are part of us. And I guess that long winded comment is to say that this is something that even my Dad's dead friend would really approve of. That's the highest quality praise I could give this.

And that's what happened. We got this very bleak version of the already barren and corrupt world that was Jack's future, all the time portals are gone, Jack has been roaming the world for 50 years without the effects of aging slowing him down, who knows how he has been affected by the trauma for all that time? All that set up was more important for Genndy than keeping up with his story faithfully. Which is why I felt Season 5 was a mixed bag to me in all honesty. It could have been so much more.

Aku’s shapeshifting has his color palette in all of his forms so it would be a green skined Jack with red hair and eyebrows with a white and black kimono. I also think Jack/Aku should talk until he shows himself. Other than that it was perfect.
