I actually much preferred more of Season 2, the mecha fight episode, The glorious scotsman trilogy (Jack meets the scotsman, Jack meets the scotsman II, and how the scotsman saved jack), I loved everything about mostly season 2 and Ik the mecha fight was in season 3, but honestly, If I were to go watch it again, I'd probably watch Season 2 the most, and some season 4 like Tales of X-9. For the most part, Saber got some good ones, but there are ones I think that are honestly downright better than some, He should have mentioned Jack and the haunted house, because of the wonderful artstyle it does. Samurai Jack is a very creative show, with many ranging different artstyles working so fluently well, because of the storyboarding first, and then writing the script to make it so effortless. Overall, Channel Frederator, if you plan on anything RELEVANT to tartarkovsky's work, take inspiration from this show, It's great animation and will teach you how it is done with simple backgrounds but with many designs so perfect, you just gotta watch that sh**

My two personal favorites was "Jack is Naked." That one was hilarious and took a tongue and cheek approach to Alice in Wonderland. The other was Samurai Vs. Ninja.

I completely agree, especially to Samurai VS Ninja. I love the use of positive and negative space, the simple white and black imagery. This whole series was a work of art. As an added note, I was very impressed by the final season. It was a satisfying, if not bittersweet conclusion to an amazing story.

One episode I absolutely love is where the kids are playing to be "Samurai Jack" and a little kid does his hair to resemble Aku's head and when they start telling the story they change certain aspects, like Jack climbing a wall or tower and the kids saying something like "But his hair was loose" and "He had injuries" and "It was raining", etc. That episode was fun, a bit dark and awesome.

While it didn't make the list, I wanted to quickly talk about one of my favorite episodes from Jack. Namely Jack and the Zombies. This episode was one that I never forgot as a kid and I finally had the opportunity to sit down and watch it again yesterday. After having to choose between two paths on a road, Jacks choice is influenced by Aku which leads him to a graveyard of undead. This episode had a lot going for it, creepy atmosphere, intense action, and it showcased what was probably Aku's greatest strengths as a villain. Asserting himself as the true master of masters, being the one pulling the strings in his world. Each move is planned out by Aku, who ends up executing his plan so efficiently that this was probably the closest he ever came to defeating Jack for good. The stakes that Jack ends up against are nail biting and overall it lands this as one of the more memorable episodes in my books.

@flaviacj9177 2 жыл бұрын

Yeah I also think this cemetery episode was the best fight between Jack and Aku in the entire series. Aku is totally deadly here and Jack feels really vunerable. If it weren't for the sword trick, Aku would have killed him in a heartbeat.

I've forgotten what the episode was called, it's been a while, but as I recall there was an episode told from the point of view a retired robot mobster who just wanted to live the rest of his life in peace with his dog. Then Aku shows up, kidnaps the dog, and forces the robot mobster to fight Jack. Jack kill/destroys the mobster and the episode ends. I'm pretty sure that was a thing, and I recall it being my favorite episode.

There are so many good episodes of Samurai Jack that it's hard for me to pick which ones are my favorites. The ending to the last one listed here though shows that this show is actually good with keeping true to it's own continuity, showing that all the way back then, Jack may have not been ready to face Aku, but after 50 years, I definitely think he is ready for the final battle. And after a decade of waiting, it's finally time to see the ending we've waited for so long...
