Episode XCVIII

Hm, not sure why they are playing it like that. But we all know that there is this "morpheus"-like guardian who keeps that ultimate time portal from being used (let alone destroyed) by anyone. And we all know that Samurai Jack has been prophesized to be the only one to use it. Well, I guess we'll have to wait and see, lol..

It is shocking how the story continues after 50 years. Jack is still in a young body but his soul is broken and he is tired after all these years which really leaves a bitter taste for those who watching it. We needed to wait 7 episodes to retrieve the one who we followed TEN years ago but it is totally worth it. This episode with the fight scenes and the soul ride as Jack was looking for his sword is just speechless. For me it was shockingly moving. This cartoon is way more than what we usually call a cartoon. It is full of emotions and the unique and stylish drawing is just sucks you in. It is too bad that everything ends once because this is a truly beautiful story about standing out what you really believe in and that everything good we do during our life will be rewarded sooner or later.
