#I liked this story but the fact that Jack has his sword in this story made zero sense to me lol#I just. I don’t feel like Jack would lose himself that much while the hope of going home still existed#he’s a samurai. he’s a very disciplined one. and I feel like this sort of wearing down would only happen a few years in#i would have thought it amazing if the sword was gone though. showing Jack at his ‘best’ versus the fallible and tired man#also giving Jack more identity issues lol.#it is funny thought that Jack has an ‘on sight’ policy with look alikes now LMAO#I have the physical comic book comp w this and some other ones and I have to say this one is the best one besides the ‘cheated death’ one#this one is the best told though#as it goes on it just kind of slowly gets more.. mean? I guess? in its interpretation of Jack#it writes him as this arrogant self important and self assured proud warrior which he’s never shown to be in the actual show#I could have seen what they were going for if they wrote it in a way that made sense. but they didn’t lol#the flat earther one was by FAR the worst and made me just clap the book shut and toss it to the side for a while lol#I guess it maybe would have suited as a story while Jack had his sword if certain things had been omitted#like Jack neglecting his personal appearance and hygiene and hiding in a mountain watching one place for a while#him being very aggressive and distrustful#that sort of thing just. if they had toned that down maybe it would have clicked a little better
i’m rewatching samurai jack (while I do my thesis) and i’m on season 4 and like
you can see how SO MUCH MEDIA has been influenced by it. the artistic choices. The framing. I’m pretty sure Kubo directly lifts several designs and jokes from it (and by lifts, I mean makes loving homages – i would too and i’m delighted to remember them!)
it’s sooo good
absolutely worth the rewatch. just beautiful
Samurai Jack fandom the last 3 years:
Are there any official contents that might come out after "battle through time"? 🫠
#cooking with NOTHING#me eating my nothing meal: mmM! so good! I think I’ll have more of the same thing!#obsessing over a show for which 90% of fans drop off the face of the earth the moment there’s no episodes coming out#where’s your unrelenting devotion#do what I do and hunt down every piece of media that ever existed for samurai Jack no matter the quality#it’s unrewarding and frustrating! highly recommend
//my favorite thing lately has been scrubbing the internet for decades old samurai jack edits and amvs and watching them. there’s so much love for samurai jack in them, faith that he would be back to finish his tale one day, and it fits perfectly with the time it came out lol. the edits aren’t as great as they would be with technology nowadays and the music is often linkin park but there’s always an open love for Jack and the series in there. and there’s something about seeing people love Jack even when it’s not at it’s most angsty, when it’s just seasons 1-4, without the novelty, without anything else to focus on but what makes Jack Jack.
adding my original tags bc fuck it this was good too
Hey yo, 2000s Cartoon-Network fandom (or any of you left anyway), anyone out there?
I have a very large soft spot for cartoons - I am wondering if there are any more of you left these days.
I wonder how dead (or maybe alive) the golden age 2000s cartoon-network fandom is currently.
Go ahead and shout it out or make yourself known if you are one of these people left in the fandom (if it even exists anymore honestly XD - I really don't know as I am so new to this stuff despite growing up with these things).
Samurai Jack, Teen Titans, Ed Edd n Eddy, Courage the Cowardly Dog, Johnny Bravo, etc etc etc - let me know how I can navigate yall's fandom, the state of the fandom, current events, what a newcomer should know, etc etc - please don't be shy to share your wisdom and insights with your fellow enthusiast!

Here are some alternative Ashi Outfits. My main issue with the outfit she has is that she literally scrubbed off her top layer of skin with a rock and should have multiple scratches/wounds that would need to be bandaged up. So I thought up some designs that could incorporate a bandaged look.
#it’s been forever since I used this blog but I need to reblog this because I used a cheap exfoliator I was given that was basically a rock#and brother that does not to nice things to your body#she would barely be able to walk even with the most generous minor abrasions because they are ALL OVER#she’d also be pruny as hell. still furious about the overly glamorous bs they did w Ashi#dude I was on fire for DAYS. thank god I stopped after my shins bc I was like ‘hey is it supposed to hurt? I don’t think it is’
Can I just point out that Ford and Samurai Jack make the exact same expressions?
That is all.

why is Samurai Jack like this…
Aku. 悪。 His character design is so fun to draw! I couldn’t resist the urge to animate him a little bit too. The sound is just my vocals, which was a fun exercise in ambiance and imitating Mako (rest in peace). After watching the premiere episode of series 5, it’s good to see that the aesthetic and tone is still very present in this story even over 12 years later. Extremely excited for the conclusion of Jack’s journey. I have greatly missed Genndy Tartakovsky’s work in TV Animation, as he is one of my idols (which I am sure is true for many other artists as well). Dexter’s Lab, Sym-Bionic Titan, the 2D Clone Wars, and Samurai Jack hold up beautifully since his timing and sense of directing are distinctly unique. We could all learn a thing or two hundred from watching Genndy’s cartoons. Sad that Mako is not around to complete his role as the main antagonist, but I hope that the new voice actor does him justice. Aku is intellectual property of @adultswim @CartoonNetworkOfficial and Genndy Tartakovsky. Go see the new series, it’s been well worth the wait.
jack must have had a hell of a sensory overload on his first day
