How did I not know this was happening?!
This used to be my shit.

You should check it out, new episode is on tonight at 11.

I had an odd theory about that mysterious guy on horseback Jack is seeing.

What if it's a ghost of his recent past come back to help him, in thanks for help Jack gave him.

As in, the Lava Monster/Viking guy who Jack helped to get to Valhalla.

Showtime, Episode 2.

[lionheart21]

Aku in therapy. Well...this is a thing that's happening right now.

[lionheart21]

Really liking the inner battle that Jack is having in this season, basically showing that his greatest enemy at this point is himself.

[lionheart21]

Those last few minutes...that chase scene....holy shit...

[chrom]

What an episode.

Jack's Inner Self was contemplating doing Seppuku after having given up and tired of it all.

I wonder when The Scotsman is gonna show up, part of me thinks he's gonna show up to help fight off The Daughters.

[Chiral]

That episode messed me up in the best way possible. Absolutely masterful.

[Rave]

Not a fan of Aku's new voice right now. Sounded a little too much like Cheech Marin. I don't want to be thinking of Mexican America and giggling while watching.

The sequence in the tombs was gorgeous. Everything came together and it was just so well done.

[lionheart21]

Seriously, that episode alone may have just guaranteed an Emmy win.

I did some looking into it because the theme sounded familiar. The theme that played during the tomb scene was a remix of The Ecstacy of Gold, from The Good, The Bad and the Ugly.

Does Aku even know of The Daughters existence? It sounds like he doesn't.

He has no idea.

[MrElijah]

So Aku is basically on top BUT the fact Jack, despite everything he has done and thrown at, is still alive is eating at him.

Jack has PTSD and is more than likely a death seeker.

This is going to get way worse before it gets any better.

And it's gonna be FRIGGIN' AWESOME!!!

[Lupin the Third]

It's gonna be interesting when Aku finds out that Jack no longer has the sword.

For the audience, it's gonna be an "Oh f***" moment.

It'd be funny to me if he found out about Jack not having the sword the moment that Jack got it back.

Something along the lines of "I could have taken him at any time and not known it!?"

Though something I always wondered...would the Scotsman's sword with its special runes on it have any effect on Aku?

His sword has similar powers to Jack's sword, so it is possible.

I could see this being a turning point. Living their lives to serve this all powerful god and Aku could not care less. I could see a turn where the leader of the Daughters ends up sacrificing herself to save Jack or something like that.

Since the Cult believes and presents him to be a Benevolent God, I could see Ashi witnessing how he really is like and the things he's done and turns on him.

It's similar to the First Season episode Tales of Aku when he tried to present himself to children as a good guy but only this time they believe it.

As for Jack's sword, from the trailer, I see him fighting those goblin like monsters we saw when he goes to retrieve it.
