Um... I was 19 when SJ came out and it was written way more for adults than it was for kids. It was very cinematic, had some of the best sound mixing out of any cartoon ever, and the stories were very mature. Yes, there were moments for the kids to enjoy, but overall, only those that were much older were going to get the most of that show, especially with episodes like the three blind archers, the 300 spartans, and the one with the shadow ninja.
I mean, I guess. Again, I've never really watched it outside of a few episodes when Netflix had one of the seasons a while ago. |

Having watched Samurai Jack as a kid, I really just enjoyed it as a whole. Jack as a stoic and calm hero rather than some action kid, the deeper storylines, even as a kid, it was just so much more than I could've ever asked for~
I am rather curious how the series will proceed now that they can have full blown violence against other people, rather than machines and monsters.

Barn, you should definitely check the show out, or if anything, at least check out the three episodes I mentioned.

Then by your logic Avatar, BTAS, and quite a few other shows were written for adults. Because clearly if a show is for kids then it must be written and talk to them like kids. Why challenge their minds or give them genuinely well produced shows that can be targeted for them but also accessible for adult viewing? Heck Dairanger, a show you love is one of the more mature shows in the Sentai world, but it was for kids. Or is that impossible since it dealt with fairly mature themes that are would be beyond children?
Clearly you are the master of media knowledge and marketing for television and production behind shows. I hereby bow down to your excellence. Talk about taking what I said completely out of context. As for Dairanger being for kids, yes it was, in Japan. Dairanger would never be allowed to be shown in the US on TV uncut and be geared towards kids. |

What makes you think that? Aside from a couple of blood shots (And the sake episode, I guess), there was nothing in Dairanger that was too extreme to show kids.

Welcome to my world.
Anyway, while I am more of a casual viewer of Samurai Jack than an outright fan when the show was on TV at the time, it really does suck that I find out that it didn't a real series finale and I am nevertheless happy that the series is supposedly going to continue, at least for its fans more than anything else, and yet at the same time and I hate to be that person but I'll believe it when I see it. Sorry. :/ |

Mako had a aid during Avatar while he voiced iroh. His aid learned his speech partner and speech perfectly when he replaced mako due to his passing he was good replacement and I think he did aku in CN related games

If I recall right, doesn't Dairanger have that drunken fist yellow ranger? While that's a bullshit excuse, as tons of anime have made up the "medicine" excuse to show those fight scenes, I think that was the reason the footage wasn't used (or at least one of them).
