SAMURAI JACK SEASON FRIGGIN’ 5 QUICK REVIEW [Spoiler alert]
After a decade [or more] of horrible, ungodly silence, Samurai Jack, the fuckin’ badass white-robed dude that knows how to tear bitches wide open up with his almighty sword [giggity], has finally returned to face Aku, the shape-shifting master of evil, who now has a Russian accent for some reason. [JK JK, no need to kill me for that comment, we all know why Aku sounds different, OK? R.I.P. Mako.] This season has been really promising so far.
So far this season has amazing looking art, an awesome soundtrack as always, an intense and much, much darker plot and the same dramatic ass-munching-face-fartingly-sweet action we all know Genndy best for. Also, it’s crazy, like this one nutty, scatting robot guy in the series says the word penis like WHOOOOOAAAAAA SOOOOOOO CRAZZZZYYYYYYYYYY, BBRRROOOOOOO!!!! Seriously though, why is everyone freaking out over that line? It’s not that big a deal. I mean it was funny but sheesh, calm down, you fucking queef sniffers.
50 years have passed by and Jack is now a depressed and very hairy lumberjack looking mother fucker [Who has not aged that entire 50 years due to...ehm something about time portals messing with age or something...and.. you know....cuz it’s fiction so, don’t worry about it, dawg.] who pretty much has given up on ever going back in time. Oh, and he lost his sword, so he’s basically fucked if Aku ever finds that out. In fact, this whole season is mostly about Jack getting fucked over until the point that he actually attempts to kill himself, seppuku style, mother fucker. This season does not fuck around, mother fuckers.
Most of it I really honestly enjoyed, but a few things do bother me, like for example, Ashi, one of the Aku’s daughters, turning good. Like I love the idea of it, but it feels very rushed [which really couldn't be helped because there were only 10 episodes to work with, so, oh well I guess.] and another thing she was trained her whole life to get ready to kill jack and she was very abused along the way, like, you can’t just turn good that easily. What she has been through would seriously mess her up. This woman would be a very screwed up, nervous, sociopathic mother fucker who would have a hard ass time adapting to society. Also, that idea of putting that romance between her and Jack in the story cringes me out. But, I suppose that’s more a matter of personal preference. Though, I’m glad the romance part is in there since that went into a nice little “Oh, HOLY FUCKING SHIT!” moment at the end of episode 9. How did I not see that one coming by the way? Damn, I’m slow. Jeez.
My only other complaint is that we didnt get to see much of the Scotsman in this season, though I have a feeling we’re getting to see a lot of him and his EXTRA THICC daughters in the final episode. Fuck yeah!
Overall, I really enjoyed this new season and I’m glad to see one of my favorite series from my childhood finally get the conclusion it deserves. Hope you assfaces enjoyed this quick review, See ya later.
[BTW, what do you guys think will happen in the final episode of the series?]
