Episode CI

From my childhood (I am a 31 year old Maltese man who grew up watching Cartoon Network), I always loved the 'Samurai Jack' series for its sublime and creative art style, still relatively unmatched in a lot of respects, and certain themes (such as the obvious, the disparity between good and evil).

When my girlfriend Charlene told me about this new season (that is Season 5), I could not believe it! Was she pulling my leg? Would they spoil one of my beloved TV series from my childhood? I honestly believe that they have done credit to an already outstanding TV series and it is definitely profound at some parts (such as the seemingly futility of goodness and the objectivity of evil which are explored in the episodes).

I would like to thank the producers for such a lovely final season to a beloved TV series! I enjoyed it immensely. Well done!

I'm looking at these reviews in absolute disbelief. Nostalgia is a very very powerful thing. I just can't think of any other reason. Bringing back old characters for an entire episode does not make it more powerful. Having an ending does not make it inherently good. There's so much wrong with the direction of this and the entire last half of the season. It's beautiful yes, but god, that is not enough. I'm a huge fan. This was the epitome of disappointment. I sat through this with six other people (2 of which had never seen Jack before) and we collectively cringed the entire way through. As for the entirety of season 5, I'm all for character development and right turns in the story but the last half of the season was haphazard, jarring, unsubtle, and shallow.

It was the perfect way to end Jack's story. I would not have expected it to go as well as it did, based on the way the season was going up till this point but was not disappointed. It was a true fan service and a great way to end the journey in my opinion. It did however feel a bit rushed and would have been more satisfying if it was an hour long.

Overall, I loved the entire season and think it was very well done!

I started watching Samurai Jack more than 10 years ago. For me it's crazy to even think about that. Now after long long years, it came to the final conclusion and it's better than ever. A great display of quality in every aspect: the animation, the story telling, the sound acting, the music are all exceptionally good. A big thanks for everyone involved!
