It highlights that there was some collateral damage to the 'good' side even if the main blow was to the 'evil' side. Many of those allies in the final battle will cease to exist also due to his quest to vanquish Aku. Many he freed from slavery will live a more peaceful version of their lives, but some will have never existed. If he undid the future that was Aku, he would have undone a little good with all of that evil. So the logic of it didn't seem off, but the pacing did seem a little pushed.Īs for the whole Ashi thing, I thought the melancholy feel of it fit with the tone of the show perfectly. I thought it was pretty realistic as Jack fought Aku many times in the future and certainly would have gotten much better at fighting him, while fighting a version of Aku who never had any luck fighting Jack. As others have said, the final battle seemed a little rushed. Every victory and good deed Jack performed always came with a bittersweet cost. He was never going to get the perfect ending of everything he wanted. Jack's entire journey was always bittersweet. Jack will never again see any of the friends he made in the alternate future, and the liberation of both timelines meant the death of the woman he loved. Yes, Aku is defeated and dead in both realities, both timelines.but Ashi's death represents the cost. Her death represented everything negative that came with killing Aku. Her existence is predicated on Aku's existence.

Ashi wasn't full Aku.so him being destroyed would not kill her right away, but eventually she faded away not because her future/existence was wiped out, but because without Aku, she literally cannot exist. But Jack and Ashi entered a new timeline and killed Aku there.

When Jack and Ashi leave the future, that future and reality still exists, free of Aku. If you get into paradox stuff, then it all pretty much doesn't make sense. I'm of the 'every time you travel, you create a new timeline'. Ashi took Jack to a NEW timeline where right after Jack was sent, Ashi arrived with Jack. Aku sent Jack to a VERSION of the timeline where Jack was gone for all of that time. I like to think it wasn't a looped timeline.that when time travel happens, you are going to an parallel timeline/universe. She served as the perfect personification of the idea that Jack defeating Aku would have costs. She wasn't all Aku, so she wouldn't die with him right away. I also thought what happened to Ashi was perfectly tragic in all of the right ways. He got his opportunity to take Aku out and he made no flaws. It shows the experience and skill Jack had gained over his long journey.

It was amazing.Īnd yes, it was absolutely satisfying to see Jack come back and utterly decimate Aku. All of Jack's good deeds finally paid off. It just made the whole thing feel tied together. The call back to the original opening, the appearance of so many of the characters from throughout the show. Not trying to just overly praise it, but I absolutely loved it. I thought it was beautiful and utterly perfect in every way.
