Hello! I figured maybe this comm could use a new post. :)

I remember watching Samurai Jack back when it first aired and I was a fan from the beginning. It was the first fandom I really got involved in. I'm happy to see a community here for it. I think there used to be one on LJ back in the day and I was part of that, too.

Though only four episodes of Season 5 have aired so far, what does everyone think of the new season? Any guesses on what will happen in later episodes?

Maybe this is already obvious, but I think Ashi will be a major player in getting Jack back to the past and/or Aku's defeat. Also, I realized how similar she and Jack are. Both were trained in combat from a young age and instilled with a sense of duty and zeal to eliminate what they perceive as the enemy. I'm curious to see how their relationship develops, and I hope we find out more about the mother of Aku's daughters.

(Late reply is late but here goes!) I'm kind of in disbelief that we've only got 4 episodes left before the end of the season. It feels like there are still so many things that need wrapping up and I dunno how they plan on addressing everything without it feeling rushed.

Someone mentioned it before (on Tumblr?) how interesting it is that Ashi's basically the "dark" version of Jack. I wasn't really surprised that she switched sides, but I will admit that I was surprised at how easy it was—I expected it to take at least 2 episodes.

Like, I'm glad she's switched sides and I'm glad Jack now has a kid but the emotional pay-off would've been better if they'd given her more screentime to explore the realization that Jack's telling the truth.
