Samurai Jack Thread: Is the end coming?

Given the episode with the Knight, who was guarding the time portal, I expect that Jack will have to unite everyone across the land against Aku. Perhaps Aku cannot be defeated through the blade alone. Perhaps he feeds off of the evil he creates and spreads across the land. Indeed, since Jack has been turning back this oppressive evil, it may be that which has hurt Aku most. I expect Aku is ordering those monolthic statues of himself built for more of a reason than simple ego.

After all, he was once a godlike entity. Perhaps he seeks to return to his former status by creating a focal point for the energies upon which he is based. Perhaps the only way to beat Aku permanently is to strengthen everyones spirits with good, righteous qualities that will drain him of his power. Anyway, just a theory. Given that the blade alone was not enough to truly defeat Aku when he first appeared, I doubt it will be enough to truly finish him now. I really think the series does a great job tying itself into previous episodes. Jacks father did say that the mind and the heart were the true key to defeating Aku.

You raise some good points. Certainly there have been times where Jack came very close to killing Aku...and failed. Does that mean the sword isn't enough? I certainly think it's a factor. The fact he was so powerful. scare me a lot. In terms of if he gets that power back can he ever be undone? Just have to see. I certainly think the human spirit plays a large part on how Jack will win or loose. Just have to wait and see.
