What are your expectations for tomorrow's finale? How do you think it will end?

My prediction:

>Jack is tied up and tortured by Aku for giggles
>Scotsman's army shows up and distracts Aku
>Ashi overcomes her blackness because boners always overpower evil
>She creates a time portal with Aku magic
>Jack distracts Aku while she goes through it
>Ashi kills Aku in the past after Jack is sent forward in time
>Ashi is the ultimate hero, aren't we progressive and forward thinking?

What I'd LOVE to see happen but never will:
>All that shit, except she overshoots the time travel
>Ends up arriving just in time to give the magic sword to jack's father, who seals Aku in the tree the first time
>Becomes Jack's mother
>The cycle of time-travel and incestuous boners is complete

It would be a cop-out if they ended with him not getting back to the past.

Not to mention the endless fan-rage from the reason for not going back to the past being a cheap romance story.

They don't have that much time for a very long fight between Jack and Aku with all the secondary character and yet to resolve plotlines. This is not necessarily a bad thing; Jack's fight with the Guardian was 6 minutes long. I believe Genndy will have put all his talent into this final fight sequence. Not only will it be intense and well animated, but it will be artistically incredible as well. I expect a lot of interesting camera angles and playing with coloring and such.

After how much they've hammered in that there are no time portals left, going back to the past thanks to some last hour portal showing up at the very end would be an actual cop-out.

At ep 1, I'd have told you it would be fantastic and amazing and everything we hoped for for the last decade. As of ep 9, I understand the finale will be horrifically disappointing and that we'd have been better off not having a new season.

The theme of the show is a samurai in the future, "going back to the past" was just a goal to glue the episodes together and give Jack some purpose.

I just imagine a scene similar to the end of Monsters Inc where Sully came back to see Boo one final time after Mike remade her door. Sully went through the door and all you heard was Boo say, "Kitty?" before Sully smiled and the film ended.

If something similar happened with Jack going back to the future for Ashi, that'd be sweet.

Worst case ending:
>waifufag ending where Jack can't go back to the past and he and Ashi hook up together in the future

And right now I'm expecting the worst. Genndy seems like a waifufag.

If you think Genndy is doing this to be progressive and not because he's writing Ashi as an insert for his wife then you are retarded. Not waifu by the way, his literal wife. He used to dream about being a samurai and saving a girl and they get married and fuck. And now he's married. Jack = Genndy and Ashi = his Wife. It's how he sees his wife.

Jacks past his his memories of his family.

Jack's future is finding family.

He knows he can't go back to the past, but in a way starting a family will be going back to what Jack wanted.

Why is everyone dumb as a bag of bricks here.

The latter half of this season being wishy washy might have just been Genndy focusing most energy on both the introductory episodes (1-3) and the finale. He's beating us down so the finale will break our expectations right the fuck in two and give us an ending none of use really accounted for, with a resolution no one thought they wanted but end up with a bitter but very real sense of satisfaction and closure.

Of course it's stupid to assume that'll be the case. If it is, though, I'll be happy.

Why do people hate the idea of Jack going back to the past? Even if it doesn't happen, do you actually want Jack to end up stuck in the future? People defend not going back to the past as vehemently as they do Jashi for some reason.

I agree with you in regards to the narrative of season 5, but it's not just superfluous shit like his memories that are at stake, there are real consequences for Jack not going back to the past in the form of countless deaths of innocents. I don't see the point in showing us the dead people in episode 1 if that's never resolved.
