** Jack, thinking Aku is merely up to some trick, swings his sword: Aku turns into a bat form, fleeing and yelling, "I'll be back, samurai! You'll see! HAHAHAHA!" He flutters away for long enough that Jack starts getting thoughtful before popping back next to Jack and saying "See what I mean?"

Rated M For Manly is about works, not characters


While ''Samurai Jack'' is generally more serious and action-oriented than most Creator/CartoonNetwork shows (especially in Season 5, which is [[GrowingWithTheAudience aimed more at teenagers and young adults who grew up with the series]] (especially with a bunch of RatedMForManly men, although there's an incoming EstrogenBrigade too) and is thus DarkerAndEdgier), that doesn't mean it ''always'' takes itself seriously.

But he sees the statue of his likeness they made; and he remarks that he likes it, though it can't compete with the original (himself). And Aku was rather baffled yet amused by what the (certifiably insane) Priestess (presumably) did to herself.

[[folder:Meta]]
* The fact that, after thirteen years of failed starts, Genndy Tartakovsky apparently managed to restart production on the series simply by calling up Cartoon Network head Mike Lazzo and ''asking''.
* During San Diego Comic-Con 2016, Genndy Tartakovsky described the opening scene of the Season 5 premiere episode, complete with sound effects. After it aired, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GmVqB3YCYfY someone dubbed the scene with his narration]].
* Greg Baldwin posted [[https://twitter.com/gregbaldwiniroh/status/866384652453371904?lang=en this]] as a parting gift to the fans after the finale, in which he finally says [[MemeticMutation "EXTRA THICC!"]] in Aku's voice.
** Greg Baldwin singing Music/FrankSinatra's "My Way" [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q-8llqE6om4 as Aku]] in celebration of getting [[https://twitter.com/GregBaldwinIroh/status/871479597191254016 10,000 Twitter followers]]. Contains spoilers.

[[folder:Community-made stuff]]
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LWtc-Hpk8tg This fan-edit of the encounter between Ra and the Minions of Set]], which uses voice clips of [[VideoGame/{{Smite}} Khepri]].
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ldDZgLGfOBo This parody]], in which the Daughters of Aku are sent by their mother to find Jack. Only for the grumpy caricature of Jack (from "Aku's Fairy Tales") to yell at them for disturbing his sleep, forcing them to ''run away backwards''.
* These parodies by Calios:
** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nyqlFrIiWDQ Aku's New Alarm Clock]]. Aku gets tormented by [[WesternAnimation/DuckDodgers the Happy Cat alarm clock]] in the morning. Even better since Happy Cat is [[ActorAllusion another one of]] {{Creator/Mako}}'s roles (in an episode which parodied ''Samurai Jack'', no less).
** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TahZ75Nyayw Jack meets Zoidberg]], complete with an [[ActorAllusion allusive crossover]] with Creator/BillyWest (the guy voicing the black walrus-man) as [[{{WesternAnimation/Futurama}} Dr. Zoidberg]].
** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6wEaBB6gdpk Ashi's Temptation]], which is as sexually charged as the title may suggest.
* These parodies by uknownada, many of which are crossed-over with the voices of ''WesternAnimation/SpongeBobSquarePants'' characters:
** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uK66mxkixFU Mediocre Magic Flute Player]], in which Aku blows up Scaramouche for being a "mediocre clarinet player". This became [[HilariousInHindsight accidentally prophetic]], as this is VERY similar to how Scaramouche actually dies later in Season 5, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kp0TA7dk0HM which led to this updated version of the parody]].
** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FUt_9JD6rYg The Ugly Aku]], which is based directly on JustForFun/TheUglyBarnacle.
** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R9oP5KqEQvM Aku Squarepants]], in which the Scotsman sings a theme song for... "[=SpongeBob SquarePants=]" (really a yellow Aku).
** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IwvRIMtD83I Pizza]], which is essentially the scene from "XCIII" where the Daughters of Aku hunt down Jack, only it's set to the infamous Pizza Theme music from the ''VideoGame/SpiderMan2'' game. The sheer SoundtrackDissonance is funny enough, but it's especially funny how the animation speeds up along with the music.
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MS4GojJyRxE Samurai Jack vs Scaramouch The Scatman]]: A music video in which Scaramouche is {{scatting}} and singing along to one of Music/ScatmanJohn's songs. It proves to be rather wonderfully catchy, and very well-fitting for the character.
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0NIBeA-EKmo Ashi]] and [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zxRhuUYpB-c Jack]] go [[Franchise/DragonBall Super Saiyan]].
* The part where Jack enters the village destroyed by Scaramouche in [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gb4_5J8nnmc Samurai Back to the Future]]. He sees [[MaleGaze a twerking woman]] and [[AllMenArePerverts he's quite pleased by the sight.]]
** Another memorable part is when Jack interrupts Scaramouche's phone call to the [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JCK0HmfZI74 Colgate Toothpase Tourette's Guy]]. He turns into [[Manga/JoJosBizarreAdventureStardustCrusaders Star Platinum]] and [[RapidFireFisticuffs riddles Scaramouche with punches]].
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wfaQ-c-4Yp0 Samurai Jack Whips out his Crazy Sword]]:
-->'''Scaramouche:''' Wait, back off, beardsly. Where is your sword?
-->''(Jack unzips his pants and a [[GagPenis massive black bar covers his crotch]])''
-->'''Scaramouche:''' No, no, no, no, NO, babe! Don't (bleep) me!
-->''[[CrossesTheLineTwice (Jack cuts Scaramouche in half with his giant censored penis)]]''
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PG5M_vWRRcc Samurai Jack's Retarded Fight]]:
-->'''Scaramouche:''' You might have destroyed me babe, but you can't destroy the musical magic that is my magic flute.
-->''(Scaramouche plays a song causing a piece of concrete to fly and hit Samurai Jack on the side of the head)''
-->'''Samurai Jack:''' [[YouHaveGotToBeKiddingMe Are you kidding me]]?!
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9pGdcHRZ9A4 The final part]] of the Samurai Sam saga, which features things such as [[ToiletHumour Aku flinging Samurai Sam into his poop]] and later [[BlackComedyRape attempting to fuck him]] [[DisproportionateRetribution for daring to]] ''[[AsskickingPose pose]]'' [[DisproportionateRetribution in front of him]], and Scaramouche [[TheDogBitesBack taking revenge on Aku for destroying him.]]
-->'''Scaramouche:''' [[CallBack You might have destroyed me babe, but you can't destroy the musical magic that is my magic flute.]]
-->''(Scaramouche plays a song causing the giant stone samurai to beat the snot out of Aku)''
-->'''Aku:''' Eurgh!
** When Jack and Ashi time-travel back to the past, Aku is surprised to see him return so soon, but then he '''summons yet another time portal''' to fling Jack ''[[HereWeGoAgain back to the future yet again]]'' (cue Jack appropriately reacting with, "''[[YouHaveGotToBeKiddingMe Are you kidding me]]?!''").
* Someone took the liberty of [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fYbXsGNPNQQ editing]] Aku's phone call from "Jack vs. Aku" with [[WesternAnimation/SpongebobSquarepants Mr. Krabs' phone call]] from "[[Recap/SpongebobSquarepantsS1E5PizzaDeliveryHomeSweetPineapple Pizza Delivery]]" to make it seem as if Aku was ordering a Krusty Krab pizza. The best part is that is sounds like a ''real conversation!''
-->'''Voice On Phone'': [[Recap/SpongebobSquarepantsS1E11 How big do you want 'em?]]
-->'''Aku''': EXTRA THICK!! Thirty minutes or it's free?
-->'''Mr. Krabs''': Our delivery squid will send it right over.
-->'''Aku''': EXCELLENT!!! (EvilLaughter)
-->''(Cut to Mr. Krabs hanging up the phone, resulting in the line going dead on Aku's end)''
** All of the comments on the video declaring this to be canon.
** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LXTKl4KssPs This alternate version]], where Mr. Krabs angrily hangs up on Aku for saying "30 minutes or it's free", only for the evil being to retaliate by destroying him, which features edited footage of Aku's story about killing Jack in "Aku's Fairy Tales".
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OKWcvImPQNs Samurai Jack Gets Roasted]] features the edited version of the iconic intro, which is rather amusing.
-->'''Aku''': ...and undo the future that is [[MemeticMutation EXTRA THICK!]]!!
** After Ashi laughing, believing that Jack was finally killed, WebVideo/FilthyFrank shows up and [[CrossesTheLineTwice starts slapping her behind]]!
** Aku's reaction to the biggest beetle drone ever created.
-->'''Aku''': Extra thick! EXCELLENT!!! (EvilLaughter)
** And then, the beetle drone gets destroyed in a single blow.
-->'''Aku:''' (realizing that Jack destroyed the beetle drone) [[YouHaveGotToBeKiddingMe STUPID]]!
* [[http://potoobrigham.tumblr.com/post/161656585566/how-episode-ci-went-down-in-my-head-dipschtick This video]] of the aftermath of the finale in the future. Namely, the Scotsman spending the last few minutes of his and Aku's [[RetGone existences]] laughing in the EvilOverlord's face. Also SugarWiki/MomentOfAwesome for [[FaceDeathWithDignity other reasons]], but given it's [[CrazyIsCool the Scotsman, that is to be expected]].
** Made doubly funny by the fact that the audio of him laughing isn’t him, but [[VideoGame/TeamFortress2 another fictional Scotsman.]]
