I'd say that a good indicator of success for a children's cartoon is when, years later, the children who watched the show are now adults who still want to watch it.
You know what can sod off? Financial success. This is is a story about a man who fucking becomes a god of warriors. You want an example of what money does to art, go watch this guy's Simpsons video.
Samurai Jack is a masterpiece in pretty much every respect. It's technically a children's cartoon but you can watch it if you're a 100, it doesn't matter.
You know, I'm watching it for the first time now, and... It doesn't really feel like a kids' show to me. It's excellent, don't get me wrong, but the pacing, deliberate pauses, and mature themes give me the impression that it actually has more adult appeal. I was never interested in it as a kid, but I'm into animation as an artform now, and... I kept seeing stuff about season 5, and it really caught my attention. Just finished season 2, and I'm really looking forward to seeing what comes next.
Japan makes a story about a quiet, stoic, yet somehow charming and utmost interesting man, forged since childhood by the fire of war, facing the loss of his loved ones, alone in a strange world he doesnt know anything about, against everything and everyone. A simple mortal man, with only his sword, skills and wits against a God that molded the world to his own image. All this based on western culture. His creator called this Berserk. America makes a story about a quiet, stoic, yet somehow charming and utmost interesting man, forged since childhood by the fire of war, facing the loss of his loved ones, alone in a strange world he doesnt know anything about, against everything and everyone.

@Boi • 8 years ago Aku was voiced by Makoto Iwematsu in the first four seasons, and Greg Baldwin was his voice in Season 5. Both voiced Uncle Iroh in Avatar: The Last Airbender.
Samurai Jack is the show which kindled my love for world building. I was a rather apathetic kid (and still kind of am), I'd studied various subjects and tried a load of sports as a kid but nothing ever excited me all that much. Then one day I was watching this show and Jack was trying to find a way to cross the ocean when he found a Map. The infinite possibilities this map represented just blew me away. Everything so far had been just a small portion of the world and I longed to know what was beyond that horizon, I wanted to explore. Sadly I'm too late for earth and too early for space so I needed to create my own frontier! Sadly I forgot this as i grew but thankfully TTGL came along and reminded me when i hit 20. Now I am one year from graduation in my Digital Animation course and starting on building world lore and level design for my very own final year game project. I can track it all back to that one scene in that one show. Words cannot express how glad i am Jack's story is finally going to have some closure. Thanks for covering this absolute Gem Eyepatch! TLDR: I Cried.
Awesome story bro. I can relate to that childhood aspect of yours. Unfortunately I'm about to go out into the real world without a clue of what to do next.
Don't stress it too much mate and enjoy where you are now as much as you can. It's never too late to change how your life is so do what you think is the best for you now and if it doesn't work out, chalk it down to experience and try something else. You'll find it eventually as long as you are open to trying new things every now and again.
Thanks for the support. I've gradually become a lot more open to new things, but I'm nearing high-school graduation, which may not seem like a big deal compared to a college graduation, but where I live, and in my school specifically, they put a lot of pressure on us to hastily get on with the our next stage in life. It's also sad to see that they glamorise university so much, even though it's not for everyone--if you don't go to uni, you're considered a failure. Sometimes I want to just travel, or experience/learn something new and build relationships. I'm trying to find a balance of financial stability, not being oppressed by social norms, and trying new things. tl:dr haha
I think the best thing to do out of school is instead of a 4 year course, take a one year course (a level 5 or 6 where i live) and work part time/weekends. A lighter workload lets you try new things, join societies, meet new people and try see if you like what your course is actually about. Also save a little if you can. Working part time in a the later years of a 4 year course is too much stress to deal with if you can save yourself from it.
To this day I remember his final strike against the last of the robot assassins. Just that moment of silence and "Unbelievable." So many moments from that show. I don't know if it ever had a bad episode.
Please can You tell me where to watch the first 4 seasons? I REALLY want to watch it and i know it's not really necesary since not all the chapters are related but i mean, i've gotta watch it.
@@mariajulianasanchez3778 You can buy the complete series on blu-ray on Amazon for $60. A lot of the earlier stuff was originally shot in 480, so it only looks marginally better on blu-ray, but season 4 was shot in 1080, so it's pretty nice.
I remember watching it and wanting to be like Jack. Disciplined, fearless, fighter, etc. I had huge respect for character and many times in school or in play grounds, I would imagine myself with a sword. He is still alive in my imagination. He was the best cartoon! the real HERO!
He forgot to mention about the gore in this show, the blood is usually gasoline oil or whatever fluids. But in the next new season there will be gore and blood.
TheDragonfriday even though it won't be extremely intense, I'm glad that they can have an even more mature vibe to it with the added blood and I'm can't wait for season 5 ^^
I believe the creator in an interview mentioned that because quite simply: He wanted a level of violence that wouldn't be censored by Cartoon Network and found a compromise in having robots instead. He even replaced arteries and organs with robotic replacements like wires and containers. For the time, it actually was pretty innovative.
alize0623 I don't know how powerpuff girls got away with it. I still remember this episode when bubbles got pissed off and killed a bunch of monsters. One where she took the monsters horn off and threw it back in its throat lol.
I remember watching an episode of Samurai Jack in a hospital in 2002. I had almost died and I was recovering in in bed. I don't recall watching any other episodes until I watched the entire series before Season 5 started. It's a good show at age 7 and at age 21.
Wveryone knows it didnt take 14 years for the dragon balls to bring you back. Also, calling BS, you arent fooling ANYONE, you were a fully grown male even when you first came into the picture basically
"Even clawed his way through the cancellation of the show" got me misty. I stayed right on the heels of every episode season 5, finishing it the day the final episode aired. What a fantastic analysis of the show, I'll use your video to convince friends who are hesitant.
I'm surprised you didn't mention the episode four seasons of death. For nearly the entire thing there's no dialogue and it's an absolute work of art. You get 4 self contained stories that feel unique but also fit into the theme of the episode.
*Requiem* however, kind of screws over Venger, so it's better to leave it as an unfinished script and as The Man says, just leave the kids stranded in D&D. As an aside, I never understood why they have done nothing with the cast since the cartoon? They would have made a great film series, instead of the random D&D films they made instead.
I didn't catch with anything with Samurai Jack but yet the only episode I saw was 'the princess and the bounty Hunter'. I don't need to know the content text of the show. I don't need to the background and effort of the production team. The episode had spoken for itself. I want to see more Samurai Jack.
Fun fact, same people who animated samurai jack, animated the star wars clone wars animation, and that show is on level witht the action and brutality of how Samurai Jack is presented.
Don't forget about Sym-Bionic Titan. I would kill to see at least one or two more seasons of that show rather than see any more of these modern-day reboots of old shows that are inferior to the original versions.
I'm really hoping that with the success of the final season of SJ, Genndy Tartakovsky will have the chance to revive Sym-Bionic Titan. Assuming, of course, he wants to. It doesn't have quite the fan base of SJ, but it's still pretty popular. And with Voltron doing as well as it is, maybe CN/Adult Swim might be a bit more comfortable having their own mecha-giant robot series.
Logan Smith You know that makes me think of something interesting; what kinds of modern-day shows will have remakes twenty, forty years down the line? TV shows just don’t have the same universal saturation that they used to thanks to the internet...
Seven years ago when I was twelve years old and on holidays to visit my family in turkey. Unfortunately I don't speak turkish and back then there were no smartphones to go through the boredom so I watched turkish TV one night. In the middle of an episode I saw an odd fight scene involving a chicken. I was so amazed by the amazing animation, cinematography and fight choreography albeit not understanding the few lines of dialogue that I can still feel the excitement of watching it seven years later. Now I found out it's from Samurai Jack and I will start watching the show looking forward to more awesome momemts like the chicken fights I saw back then.
im from turkey and in turkey cartoon shows were realesed later than its actuall realese date so even though i was born in 2003 samurai jack was aires throught my chilhood i'm honestly glad things were the way they were cuz thanks to that i even got to watch some 90s cartoons the old dc cartoons and more 00's also i remember samurai jack being hella popular here
Still remember how the movie that started it off won an award, beating South Park, and Matt Stone and Trey Parker were in an interview some time later complaining "what the fuck is Samurai Jack?!"
I know the episodes you list at the end are very stylized, but for people reading this, there's one more episode you should check out: Season 2 Ep 1: Jack Learns to Jump Good I think this is the quintessential Samurai Jack episode in terms of giving a feel for the show, the story, and our main characters. You see different sides of Jack, more of his world and, even in a dystopian future, how he positively impacts so many who meet him. If you for some reason can only watch 1 episode before season 5, consider this one.
I remember when Netflix only released season 2 (so evil of them to do) I’d never seen the show but I knew the hype. So clicking on S2E1… I knew I had to see the show from the beginning. And years later I did. That episode really sticks with you.
I remember watching a review of this where the reviewer (Blockbuster Buster) gave this series perhaps the greatest praise it could ever receive. "You can learn more about telling a story in a visual media from watching one episode of Samurai Jack than an entire semester of film school." And I don't think he was far off. One thing this show did better than perhaps any other show has ever done before or since, is tell a story with visuals. "Show don't tell" is constantly said, but how often does anyone follow through?
Wow, in retrospective Samurai Jack is a very dark/deep/mature show. But definitely the action sequences and the landscapes where entertaining enough to call my 8 year old attention. Excellent video by the way!
The one thing Jack said that made me begin to love him like a dignified friend was when he was in that sunken city and they sat down to dinner and he said, "Sushi!" I related to him in that moment because it was like you've been lost and scared somewhere and as welcoming as some strangers may appear, you can't really feel at ease. But once a familiar - or even favourite - food is put in front of you you sudden;y feel so much better. And also, food is a great way to make a character relatable. Not often enough do we see heroes and heroines eating. Just eating. So yeah, that's my hot take.
Excellent analysis! My personal favorites are Jack vs the Hunters and Jack in Wonderland (AKA Jack is Naked). I think those two embody the humor and beauty that can also be found in the series along with the tragedy and magic overall. I can wait for these final 10 episodes and hopefully these will provide answers and closure that the fans have been waiting for.
dude this is the first video i am seeing i had this in my recomended for a long time but i thought it would just be another dude saying watch samurai jack but you man...how you expressed the whole show the amazing quality of your video i loved it. it is very hard to tell others to watch this show because from the outside it seems boring and long but you explained it perfectly the soundtrack you used was perfect your narration was perfect and the choice of episode to breakdown was perfect as they enclose the amazing quality of the show and man o man how you ended it on the new season that was great you didn't use a single frame from the new season before just for that moment. if i find someone who hasn't watched the show trust in the fact that i would share your video to them
*Why you should watch Shinsenkai Yori (From the New World)!* Put out by the same people behind Sword Art Online but actually really good! It's a fantastic series with deep themes and complex characters that slipped WAY under the radar and definitely worth watching!
well mostly people tell me that stuff is just yuri bait, the anime and to be honest the premises aside from what google shows me aside from the whole searches hits just showing me related stuff to "yuri" and "kiss" about that show , well .... is there anything people talk about it aside from the lesbians on it?
+Lyam Absolutely mot yuri bait? I can literally think of like one scene to relate to it, but it's a damn small part of that show. I can't give context around it without spoiling something pretty big, but I can tell you that I can scarcely think of an anime with less fanservice than Shinsenkai Yori. I think there was some anime youtuber that reviewed it and sparked a bad rumor or something? I've heard a few weird rumors about the show and not one of them are true.
I loved Jack as a kid, but it's videos like these and rewatching my favorite episodes that really make me appreciate just what a work of art this show is. Just brilliantly done.
"Noone has been able to stand up to Jack in direct combat." Laughing Minions of Set. Who had to be beaten by RA HIMSELF coming down and lasering them. Other than that, this video is exactly why this show was so great.
Hey eye patch wolf Your videos have unfolded a world of anime and cartoons for me which have provided hours of entertainment that I can enjoy from my own room. when I don't feel like facing the world, you've connected me to a world that keeps me going,until I'm pumped up from One punch Man enough to run 10 km a day and try 100 push ups. Thanks for your work man !
This is a show that makes you realize that cartoons/anime is an art form. The stunning visuals and also the amazing use of cinematography is unmatched in any show I've personally watched.
i always keep at least 5 videos of eye patch wolf on hand in my phone to listen to on repeat, this is #1 on that list out of my rotation of 5 and gets its own permanent spot in my phone. without fail if i ever change phones (which i went through 3 so far) before i even put my micro SD card in i have this downloaded before i even put the latest phone update in it. it never gets tiring listening to eyepatch wolf's work. and samurai jack is top 3 on my most favorite things to watch ever.
You know, the way you paced out this video was gorgeous. The build up to you saying Samurai Jack is returning actually touched me. You can't do a dramatic voice by any stretch but the delivery was perfect. Worthy of the show itself.
always wanted to watch it but as far as i know the only time it was here on german television was on cartoon network which is a pay tv channel. but now with a new season and the power of the internet i definitely gonna watch it
you sir, have to be one of the most talented unique youtubers i've come across in a long time. from the commentary to the editing to the choice of music. all excellent
GuiderMaster1 Oh, I am fully aware they aren't. I was just replying to his demand that SEW show people what a masterpiece it is. Most people know it, almost everyone who has watched it rated it a 10/10 after all
Dude, as always, your editing and structure... AMAZING! I had fucking CHILLS when you said Jack was back, and I was just watching this video for shits and giggles! I'll definitely check out the whole show!
Fantastic video for encouraging people to watch up for the new season, as well as build more hype for people like me who're already beyond stoked for the return of my favorite TV show ever. I grew up on Cartoon Network and Nickelodeon shows, they're my life's blood, my formative childhood experiences that still inspire me to this day. Out of all of them, I can state unequivocally that Samurai Jack is the best, a masterpiece without peers. It stand stark and unique among the history of animated entertainment, unmistakable and immediately recognizable, you could pick any single frame from any single episode and people would say: "Oh yeah! That's Samurai Jack!" It's a show that demonstrates the boundless capabilities of the visual medium, how music and sound design can be used to create a gripping and unforgettable tone of the world, and how simplistic stylized designs form ineffable characters that endure the years as beloved icons. I don't know what the final season will hold, but I have upmost confidence that the people behind it will try their absolute best to recapture that decades old wonder, and accomplish one thing perhaps more important. Out of the thousands of stories never finished, whether cancelled or abandoned or simply forgotten, I think I speak for many when I say one name among those unfinished journeys deserves a conclusion. Samurai Jack.
i agree no one who doesnt have more than 16 subs has disected why fairy tail is bad its all just trolls saying 'fairy tail is worst than justin bieber'. plus supereyepatchwolf does talk about fairy tail quite a bit
knightmareAlpha I feel it's biggest shortcomings are rather obvious so I'm personally not really interested in a video like that. I can see where you're coming from tho
I want a more sober approach to the matter so that it doesn't end in a hate speech. Eyepatch seams the right guy for it. Also Fairy Tale is ending soon and to see what make it work and what broke it could be interesting just like with Bleach. Maybe a future mangaka can learn something of it(unlikely) but most likely we learn something in the process. And learning is fun, at least to me.
well in his phantom world video he said he liked even some of the worst parts of fairy tail so a hate speech isnt likely or he could talk about the appeal of shoenen in general, like what makes them popular.
Many anime and shows that are very long running often get called 'the best' based purely on the length of their resume and their decades-spanning "legacy" But as cool and sprawling as a Dragon Ball/DBZ/Super, Naruto, or One Piece may be.....they are insanely lengthy, have serious ups and downs in quality....and seemed designed in the inherently flawed 'soap opera' style of having never-ending storytelling. All of the truly great stories have fantastic conclusions.....and it doesn't seem like any of those properties will ever truly have fitting conclusions. Samurai Jack is the definition of quality over quantity. Of minimalism over excess. It is 62 episodes of PURE GOLD. Pure visual artistry that touches almost every genre and art-style you can imagine. All the while the entire thing is kept very simple and very pure, making it truly universal in its appeal. The show succeeds at being both an episodic, one-off series of loosely connected episodes...as well as being something that, upon the conclusion, feels almost completely cohesive and united as a single epic journey. The final season increased the maturity and scope of the series as a whole, and did a lot of work towards linking the entire series together and bringing it all full circle. It was the perfect epilogue and conclusion to the original run. It was heart-breaking that the show was canned without a conclusion, but in the long run it was all worth it. Had it continued indefinitely, eventually the quality would have suffered and the through-line of the central plot would have felt dragged on too long without resolution. It was nixed while it was still peaking in quality, and brought back better than ever for just long enough to bring the entire thing to a satisfying and epic conclusion. For my money, it is the greatest animated series ever created.
Just because I didn't see it in the piles of comments, but there is an ending to the D&D cartoon, sort of. They scripted a season ending episode that could infer that they finally got home, or that they remained (if they got another season,) but it was never animated. The script is read in the extras of the Deluxe box set of the series.
"Why You Should Watch JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: Diamond is Unbreakable" would be very interesting since the series ended already. Anyway, I'm happy to see a Samurai Jack video, keep up with the good work mate :)
Well I was late to the party with this but binged the lot and love it thanks man. Now am waiting on the last couple episodes. Must be great to finally have some closure to this show for the long time fans.
I always felt bad for the princess, especially when you consider that Jack would have helped if she asked. I mean most stories about him are about him freeing people from Aku, yet she only wants the money his death would supply so wth? As far as the series as a whole, it is just a beautiful production and I'm so glad it is coming back after so long to finally finish his fight with Aku.
You explained it the best way, no doubt that this video is the best on youtube at explaining why anyone should watch Samurai Jack, congrats Super Eyepatch Wolf, you have my respect for such a fine video :)
I've never consistently watched Samurai Jack before, and as such didn't know too much about it, but it's on my list from now on, great eye opener video to draw inspiration from, with an artist's/writer's eye both. Let me thank you for making it, and please accept if I ruin the nicely rounded up likes with my own.
You missed the fact that Princess and the Bounty Hunters is also based on a story from Lone Wolf and Cub, just changed in included the different places that people came from. A brilliant idea.
What makes the Bounty Hunter Princess even sadder is even if she did succeed in claiming the bounty on Jack it would still be all for nothing since Aku never keeps his ends of deals he would still have her people enslaved and she would have destroyed the one and only person who can defeat Aku and actually free her people. If only she'd just told Jack about her situation he would have offered her to team up with him as he is the only one who can actually defeat Aku.
As a kid this, along with the powerpuff girls were my favorite cartoons. I was so happy when I heard of the release of Samurai Jack's fifth season, I loved this video! Your work is relaxing yet fun to watch at the same time, and the points you make are so concise. I love the visuals and music too
Glass Reflection is not like full blown weeaboo cancer, he is ok-ish to me , there are other out there like GaijinGoomba and similar that are full blow weeaboo cancer in the flesh
i so know how you feel ! And also, eve tough from the first second of this video i knew you were going to say "jack is back" but it still sent a chill of excitement down my spine :D
I'd say that a good indicator of success for a children's cartoon is when, years later, the children who watched the show are now adults who still want to watch it.
Anonymous Anonymous financially, that's not necessarily the case. Artistically, yea, I can see that.
xenoblad The rat race, the need to make a buck just to put food on the table, is the ultimate killer of art.
As an artist who's struggling to put food on the table, I'd like to point out that dead by starvation is the ultimate killer of art.
I was four. Am now twenty. I want my master jack back now please.
You know what can sod off? Financial success. This is is a story about a man who fucking becomes a god of warriors. You want an example of what money does to art, go watch this guy's Simpsons video.
Now that I look at this as an adult... That artstyle is incredible for its time
What about the time it was released makes the art style more impressive? It is a good style but where does the 'for its time' come in?
Is there any other cartoon from the early 2000s with a style so distinct and unique that we still see similarities in today's popular cartoons?
Ruby-Lou Well it is incredible today too.
TheKrigeron That's true! I'm incredibly hyped for next week. The artstyle looks like it hasn't changed much, I'm glad!
Ruby-Lou no way, it looks like shit when compared to other shows like Dragon Ball out at the same time
Samurai Jack is a masterpiece in pretty much every respect. It's technically a children's cartoon but you can watch it if you're a 100, it doesn't matter.
If an adult that isn't interested in cartoons/comics/etc can watch it and enjoy it, you done your job
I find it more enjoyable as an adult than when I was a child honestly.
You know, I'm watching it for the first time now, and... It doesn't really feel like a kids' show to me. It's excellent, don't get me wrong, but the pacing, deliberate pauses, and mature themes give me the impression that it actually has more adult appeal.

kicsnasdc and now in season 5, Jack has his own version of Skull Knight, so the parallels become even more apparent
kicsnasdc Breh.... I didn't even realize this. Now to be fair Jack time traveled to get traumatized, and Guts got traumatized by, well, the Eclipse.
The blue guardian is Zodd, lol.
Can there be a PG 13 version on the Eclipse?
I mean the characters are there it's just how can it be done?
knew you were talking about berserk the first sentence in, also completely agree with the striking similarities.
Isn’t crazy how Aku is voiced by uncle Iroh

I remember watching an episode of Samurai Jack in a hospital in 2002. I had almost died and I was recovering in in bed. I don't recall watching any other episodes until I watched the entire series before Season 5 started. It's a good show at age 7 and at age 21.

Wveryone knows it didnt take 14 years for the dragon balls to bring you back. Also, calling BS, you arent fooling ANYONE, you were a fully grown male even when you first came into the picture basically
Well thank God you were still alive to finish it
MHD 73198 or maybe he just watched one episode, forgot about it, and found it much later.
"Even clawed his way through the cancellation of the show" got me misty.
I stayed right on the heels of every episode season 5, finishing it the day the final episode aired.
What a fantastic analysis of the show, I'll use your video to convince friends who are hesitant.
I'm surprised you didn't mention the episode four seasons of death. For nearly the entire thing there's no dialogue and it's an absolute work of art. You get 4 self contained stories that feel unique but also fit into the theme of the episode.
Ahhh, I remember watching that episode.
The winter part is one of my best short stories.
There is dialogue in the Spring section
DnD has a comic where it ended, was requested by the fans and published by the creators, wasn't animated but happened, the end is out there.
it is a fan comic, it isn't canon
but was based in the original script for the final episode shared by the creator (Michael Reaves).
docs.google.com/viewer?a=v&pid=sites&srcid=ZGVmYXVsdGRvbWFpbnxyb2d1bGw3MnxneDo3OGExYWM2ZTMyOWVmODJl the script
*Requiem* however, kind of screws over Venger, so it's better to leave it as an unfinished script and as The Man says, just leave the kids stranded in D&D.
As an aside, I never understood why they have done nothing with the cast since the cartoon? They would have made a great film series, instead of the random D&D films they made instead.
pious83 It would be crazy if there was a new show post timeskip where the kids actually grew up in that world.
I didn't catch with anything with Samurai Jack but yet the only episode I saw was 'the princess and the bounty Hunter'.
I don't need to know the content text of the show. I don't need to the background and effort of the production team. The episode had spoken for itself. I want to see more Samurai Jack.
hrwhahaha Then you should watch it.It's a amazing series.
Interesting episode to start with. A great one indeed.
That's not entirely true.
You need to experience the show in it's glorious entirety.
Because I don't have cartoon network back then and I watched too much one piece multiple time during my teenage ages.
This confirms your plebian'ness.
I recommend you leave before things get ugly friend...
I Would Personally Love A "Why You Should Watch Avatar The Last Airbender" Video, That Would Be A Dream Come True.
RedfoxLover7 7 I would love that too
RedfoxLover7 7 if there were ever an American cartoon as anime as Samurai Jack, it'd be Avatar
Funny how both cartoons have heavy eastern influences
Oh man, I would kill for a Super Eyepatch Wolf take on Avatar: The Last Airbender!
please do this
"Jack is back" still brings tears to my eyes and I've already seen the final season.
Fun fact, same people who animated samurai jack, animated the star wars clone wars animation, and that show is on level witht the action and brutality of how Samurai Jack is presented.
Don't forget about Sym-Bionic Titan. I would kill to see at least one or two more seasons of that show rather than see any more of these modern-day reboots of old shows that are inferior to the original versions.
I'm really hoping that with the success of the final season of SJ, Genndy Tartakovsky will have the chance to revive Sym-Bionic Titan. Assuming, of course, he wants to. It doesn't have quite the fan base of SJ, but it's still pretty popular. And with Voltron doing as well as it is, maybe CN/Adult Swim might be a bit more comfortable having their own mecha-giant robot series.
Logan Smith You know that makes me think of something interesting; what kinds of modern-day shows will have remakes twenty, forty years down the line? TV shows just don’t have the same universal saturation that they used to thanks to the internet...
Seven years ago when I was twelve years old and on holidays to visit my family in turkey. Unfortunately I don't speak turkish and back then there were no smartphones to go through the boredom so I watched turkish TV one night. In the middle of an episode I saw an odd fight scene involving a chicken. I was so amazed by the amazing animation, cinematography and fight choreography albeit not understanding the few lines of dialogue that I can still feel the excitement of watching it seven years later. Now I found out it's from Samurai Jack and I will start watching the show looking forward to more awesome momemts like the chicken fights I saw back then.
im from turkey and in turkey cartoon shows were realesed later than its actuall realese date so even though i was born in 2003 samurai jack was aires throught my chilhood i'm honestly glad things were the way they were cuz thanks to that i even got to watch some 90s cartoons the old dc cartoons and more 00's also i remember samurai jack being hella popular here
Jack's encounter with the magma golem is still one of the most touching moments on TV ever.
Still remember how the movie that started it off won an award, beating South Park, and Matt Stone and Trey Parker were in an interview some time later complaining "what the fuck is Samurai Jack?!"
“Jacks cancellation-“
Season 5: I’m ‘bout to end this mans whole career
I know the episodes you list at the end are very stylized, but for people reading this, there's one more episode you should check out:
Season 2 Ep 1: Jack Learns to Jump Good
I think this is the quintessential Samurai Jack episode in terms of giving a feel for the show, the story, and our main characters. You see different sides of Jack, more of his world and, even in a dystopian future, how he positively impacts so many who meet him. If you for some reason can only watch 1 episode before season 5, consider this one.
this is the only episode I remember from childhood... and thus I watched season 5, what a marvel. I don't want to watch any other cartoon ever now!
*Minor Spoilers*
The second meeting between him and Aku is priceless! I find myself quoting the encounter often and at random. Lol!
I remember when Netflix only released season 2 (so evil of them to do)
I’d never seen the show but I knew the hype. So clicking on S2E1… I knew I had to see the show from the beginning.
And years later I did.
That episode really sticks with you.
I remember watching a review of this where the reviewer (Blockbuster Buster) gave this series perhaps the greatest praise it could ever receive. "You can learn more about telling a story in a visual media from watching one episode of Samurai Jack than an entire semester of film school." And I don't think he was far off. One thing this show did better than perhaps any other show has ever done before or since, is tell a story with visuals. "Show don't tell" is constantly said, but how often does anyone follow through?
after watching this video, I really believe that, the comments alone about the background art work alone was really insightful
*Gotta get back...*
*Back to the past...*
*WATCHOUT !!!*
*JACK'S BACK*
*SAMURAI JACK - MARCH 11 2017*
eh-hem.. *WATCHAAAAA*
Wow, in retrospective Samurai Jack is a very dark/deep/mature show. But definitely the action sequences and the landscapes where entertaining enough to call my 8 year old attention.
Excellent video by the way!
Samurai Jack: The Black Swordsman Arc
samurai jack is the closest thing to a berserk animation that doesn't suck that we will get
+Erick
....what about the 90s Berserk series?
that one is ok at best
@@ericknunez8069 That is so incorrect that it hurts my soul.
The one thing Jack said that made me begin to love him like a dignified friend was when he was in that sunken city and they sat down to dinner and he said, "Sushi!"
I related to him in that moment because it was like you've been lost and scared somewhere and as welcoming as some strangers may appear, you can't really feel at ease. But once a familiar - or even favourite - food is put in front of you you sudden;y feel so much better. And also, food is a great way to make a character relatable. Not often enough do we see heroes and heroines eating. Just eating.
So yeah, that's my hot take.
B-BUT THIS ISN'T ANIMAY?!
Jk samurai jack is amazing
MFadhilSatrio evangelion is overrated ecks dee
BZR KR Samurai jack is right up there with avatar the last air bender as some of the best animated content to come out of America imo.
I didn't enjoy evangelion so for me almost anything is better lol
Samurai Jack is Cartoon networks Avatar
Samurai Jack and Megas XLR are my favourite CN shows from the early 2000s. Thanks for the video, this show really deserves more attention.
Ayy only real ones knows Megas XLR 🤘
@@osmanlopez6536 "Chicks dig giant robots..." 😎😎😎
Excellent analysis! My personal favorites are Jack vs the Hunters and Jack in Wonderland (AKA Jack is Naked). I think those two embody the humor and beauty that can also be found in the series along with the tragedy and magic overall. I can wait for these final 10 episodes and hopefully these will provide answers and closure that the fans have been waiting for.
U got me at that 19:38 Plot Twist. Thanks for that. The synthwave was a perfect touch.
That last bit about the show being back almost made me tear up a bit from the passion you narrated it with, Wolf.
dude this is the first video i am seeing i had this in my recomended for a long time but i thought it would just be another dude saying watch samurai jack but you man...how you expressed the whole show the amazing quality of your video i loved it. it is very hard to tell others to watch this show because from the outside it seems boring and long but you explained it perfectly the soundtrack you used was perfect your narration was perfect and the choice of episode to breakdown was perfect as they enclose the amazing quality of the show and man o man how you ended it on the new season that was great you didn't use a single frame from the new season before just for that moment. if i find someone who hasn't watched the show trust in the fact that i would share your video to them
"Just as The Guardian is about to finish Jack off", well, Jack could have waited for him to do that before trying to go through the portal
*Why you should watch Shinsenkai Yori (From the New World)!*
Put out by the same people behind Sword Art Online but actually really good! It's a fantastic series with deep themes and complex characters that slipped WAY under the radar and definitely worth watching!
Wrath Is Me
I'm reporting this comment lol, how dare you
although you should really watch Shinsekai Yori if you haven't, it's legit
well mostly people tell me that stuff is just yuri bait, the anime and to be honest the premises aside from what google shows me aside from the whole searches hits just showing me related stuff to "yuri" and "kiss" about that show , well .... is there anything people talk about it aside from the lesbians on it?
+AlexJetski A1 pictures is mostly made up of freelancers.
it's not that great
+Lyam Absolutely mot yuri bait? I can literally think of like one scene to relate to it, but it's a damn small part of that show. I can't give context around it without spoiling something pretty big, but I can tell you that I can scarcely think of an anime with less fanservice than Shinsenkai Yori. I think there was some anime youtuber that reviewed it and sparked a bad rumor or something? I've heard a few weird rumors about the show and not one of them are true.
I loved Jack as a kid, but it's videos like these and rewatching my favorite episodes that really make me appreciate just what a work of art this show is. Just brilliantly done.
Well it's over now it was a hell of a journey
"Noone has been able to stand up to Jack in direct combat."
Laughing Minions of Set. Who had to be beaten by RA HIMSELF coming down and lasering them.
Other than that, this video is exactly why this show was so great.
The Imakandi beat him as well
Well he said "in single combat". So, 1 on 1. Both those were him against multiple enemies.
haha i've known of the return of samurai jack since it was announced and yet when you said "jack is back" i still got goosebumps
Hey eye patch wolf
Your videos have unfolded a world of anime and cartoons for me which have provided hours of entertainment that I can enjoy from my own room.
when I don't feel like facing the world, you've connected me to a world that keeps me going,until I'm pumped up from One punch Man enough to run 10 km a day and try 100 push ups.
Thanks for your work man !
So happy they were able to come back and finish this story!
Very well done video I'm so excited for the new season. You clearly put lots of time and effort in,
keep it up
This is a show that makes you realize that cartoons/anime is an art form. The stunning visuals and also the amazing use of cinematography is unmatched in any show I've personally watched.
Fun Fact: in my country, they had to change Aku's name to Abu because his original name sounded like "Cú" which means ass over here. Not kidding.
I'm guessing you're from Brazil.
Farbod Asadi Yup.
Caraio, nem lembrava disso mano, pior q é real kkkkkkk
Ue, eu lembrava como Aku, não lembrava disso tbm lolol
Deem uma checada na abertura, ele fala Abu.
i always keep at least 5 videos of eye patch wolf on hand in my phone to listen to on repeat, this is #1 on that list out of my rotation of 5 and gets its own permanent spot in my phone. without fail if i ever change phones (which i went through 3 so far) before i even put my micro SD card in i have this downloaded before i even put the latest phone update in it. it never gets tiring listening to eyepatch wolf's work. and samurai jack is top 3 on my most favorite things to watch ever.
i will go through 1000 episodes just to hear someday scotsman's roasts again
jack wick is coming guic
just a heads up - at 14:12 the style is based of Australian Aboriginal art, not african. otherwise I loved the video!
Yeah, kinda funny how he mentions that the character is Aboriginal then goes on to describe the artstyle as African.
QuantumQuack is it not like African style
Perhaps there are some similarities(Africa is a big continent), but it is explicitly an Australian Aboriginal art style.
Duxo my thought as well! I wonder how deep into research the artists did about the aboriginal art style
Came here to say this! I understand that mistakes happen, but as an Aussie I'm glad someone pointed it out.
I heard killer 7 music in the background, therefore, you must talk about it. For the love of God please talk about that game.
Janelle Villanueva
Idk anything about it, so if he could talk about it in a video format that'd be cool.
One of the best and most unique games there ever was.
thx for the video, always top quality 👍
Eyepatch Wolf has that buttery Irish accent that makes his videos therapeutic and easy to understand ❤
You know, the way you paced out this video was gorgeous.
The build up to you saying Samurai Jack is returning actually touched me.
You can't do a dramatic voice by any stretch but the delivery was perfect.
Worthy of the show itself.
In one of the Baldur's Gate games, they implied that the heroes from Dungeons and Dragons were eaten by Tiamat.
That F bomb gave me chills. Thank you for this
always wanted to watch it but as far as i know the only time it was here on german television was on cartoon network which is a pay tv channel. but now with a new season and the power of the internet i definitely gonna watch it
ActionAbe1 well good luck and I hope you enjoy the series that I cherished and beloved when I was watching it so long ago ^^
Every time I think about an episode or a series you make an episode about said episode. It's baffling how you read my mind. Great work
you sir, have to be one of the most talented unique youtubers i've come across in a long time. from the commentary to the editing to the choice of music. all excellent
Jack didn't kill any of the Bounty Hunters. Gennedy said so
The entire battle took ONLY A SECOND!
So he did pull a reverse kenchin. Like except, kenchin refuse to draw blood again. Jack is scared to take a life.
Can you do a video about gintama? Show people how much of a masterpiece it is
Amine Ahaggach 7 different entries of Gintama are in the top 10 highest rated anime on MAL.......
Lol, MAL ratings are not trustworthy. However, he should do a video on it nonetheless.
GuiderMaster1 Oh, I am fully aware they aren't. I was just replying to his demand that SEW show people what a masterpiece it is. Most people know it, almost everyone who has watched it rated it a 10/10 after all
yes please !
He is currently watching it. So he'll most likely make a video about it in the future
One of your best pieces so far! Loved it!
Proud, happy subscriber! :)
Dude, as always, your editing and structure... AMAZING! I had fucking CHILLS when you said Jack was back, and I was just watching this video for shits and giggles! I'll definitely check out the whole show!
Fantastic video for encouraging people to watch up for the new season, as well as build more hype for people like me who're already beyond stoked for the return of my favorite TV show ever. I grew up on Cartoon Network and Nickelodeon shows, they're my life's blood, my formative childhood experiences that still inspire me to this day. Out of all of them, I can state unequivocally that Samurai Jack is the best, a masterpiece without peers. It stand stark and unique among the history of animated entertainment, unmistakable and immediately recognizable, you could pick any single frame from any single episode and people would say: "Oh yeah! That's Samurai Jack!" It's a show that demonstrates the boundless capabilities of the visual medium, how music and sound design can be used to create a gripping and unforgettable tone of the world, and how simplistic stylized designs form ineffable characters that endure the years as beloved icons. I don't know what the final season will hold, but I have upmost confidence that the people behind it will try their absolute best to recapture that decades old wonder, and accomplish one thing perhaps more important. Out of the thousands of stories never finished, whether cancelled or abandoned or simply forgotten, I think I speak for many when I say one name among those unfinished journeys deserves a conclusion. Samurai Jack.
I would like to see how you approach Fairy Tale and its shortcomings
i agree no one who doesnt have more than 16 subs has disected why fairy tail is bad its all just trolls saying 'fairy tail is worst than justin bieber'. plus supereyepatchwolf does talk about fairy tail quite a bit
knightmareAlpha I feel it's biggest shortcomings are rather obvious so I'm personally not really interested in a video like that. I can see where you're coming from tho
i can agree with you on that but it could be like digibro's asterisk war sucks videos, yeah we know it sucks but its interesting and fun to watch
I want a more sober approach to the matter so that it doesn't end in a hate speech. Eyepatch seams the right guy for it. Also Fairy Tale is ending soon and to see what make it work and what broke it could be interesting just like with Bleach. Maybe a future mangaka can learn something of it(unlikely) but most likely we learn something in the process. And learning is fun, at least to me.
well in his phantom world video he said he liked even some of the worst parts of fairy tail so a hate speech isnt likely or he could talk about the appeal of shoenen in general, like what makes them popular.
Many anime and shows that are very long running often get called 'the best' based purely on the length of their resume and their decades-spanning "legacy"
But as cool and sprawling as a Dragon Ball/DBZ/Super, Naruto, or One Piece may be.....they are insanely lengthy, have serious ups and downs in quality....and seemed designed in the inherently flawed 'soap opera' style of having never-ending storytelling. All of the truly great stories have fantastic conclusions.....and it doesn't seem like any of those properties will ever truly have fitting conclusions.
Samurai Jack is the definition of quality over quantity. Of minimalism over excess. It is 62 episodes of PURE GOLD. Pure visual artistry that touches almost every genre and art-style you can imagine. All the while the entire thing is kept very simple and very pure, making it truly universal in its appeal.
The show succeeds at being both an episodic, one-off series of loosely connected episodes...as well as being something that, upon the conclusion, feels almost completely cohesive and united as a single epic journey. The final season increased the maturity and scope of the series as a whole, and did a lot of work towards linking the entire series together and bringing it all full circle. It was the perfect epilogue and conclusion to the original run.
It was heart-breaking that the show was canned without a conclusion, but in the long run it was all worth it. Had it continued indefinitely, eventually the quality would have suffered and the through-line of the central plot would have felt dragged on too long without resolution. It was nixed while it was still peaking in quality, and brought back better than ever for just long enough to bring the entire thing to a satisfying and epic conclusion.
For my money, it is the greatest animated series ever created.
Just because I didn't see it in the piles of comments, but there is an ending to the D&D cartoon, sort of. They scripted a season ending episode that could infer that they finally got home, or that they remained (if they got another season,) but it was never animated. The script is read in the extras of the Deluxe box set of the series.
2nd of your videos I've seen now and think I may have found my newest binge-watch channel. Well done
man, this guy's analyses are on point. I'm getting back into old shows after watching these videos :D

"Why You Should Watch JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: Diamond is Unbreakable" would be very interesting since the series ended already. Anyway, I'm happy to see a Samurai Jack video, keep up with the good work mate :)

Dude M. YES HE MUST DO IT
Very well put and on top of it all, my favourite episode (Jack and the time travelling creatures) is thoroughly elaborated. Well done!
Well I was late to the party with this but binged the lot and love it thanks man. Now am waiting on the last couple episodes. Must be great to finally have some closure to this show for the long time fans.
I always felt bad for the princess, especially when you consider that Jack would have helped if she asked. I mean most stories about him are about him freeing people from Aku, yet she only wants the money his death would supply so wth? As far as the series as a whole, it is just a beautiful production and I'm so glad it is coming back after so long to finally finish his fight with Aku.

The Hype is so fucking high...
you're a tool. It ain't a hype
You explained it the best way, no doubt that this video is the best on youtube at explaining why anyone should watch Samurai Jack, congrats Super Eyepatch Wolf, you have my respect for such a fine video :)
I've never consistently watched Samurai Jack before, and as such didn't know too much about it, but it's on my list from now on, great eye opener video to draw inspiration from, with an artist's/writer's eye both. Let me thank you for making it, and please accept if I ruin the nicely rounded up likes with my own.
18:20 needed to be rephrased
You missed the fact that Princess and the Bounty Hunters is also based on a story from Lone Wolf and Cub, just changed in included the different places that people came from. A brilliant idea.
Ooooh! What story?!
just 3 days until season 5 I'm so excited
you've given me a whole new appreciation for one of my fave shows ever! good job bro
A very well composed and thoughtful analysis of Samurai Jack. Well done!
My only hope is that the Scotsman (or his grand kids, it has been 50 years) are in the show
Were you disappointed?
Legend has it, the show never got cancelled. It just being teleported into the future
What makes the Bounty Hunter Princess even sadder is even if she did succeed in claiming the bounty on Jack it would still be all for nothing since Aku never keeps his ends of deals he would still have her people enslaved and she would have destroyed the one and only person who can defeat Aku and actually free her people. If only she'd just told Jack about her situation he would have offered her to team up with him as he is the only one who can actually defeat Aku.
