I'm not sure where to start. Samurai Jack is one of my FAVORITE things. And (like Star Wars), it becomes a part of you. The world is more colorful and richer because this is in it. It transcends being a cartoon, moving and spiritually fulfilling. Very much a work of art. This is story telling and art at it's finest.

Great show based loosely on my life. Goes into detail through use of metaphor on my trials as a samurai in modern times and my journey as a man out of place in his own day and age. Very well done and though I am not credited as the source material I am not offended in the least as my true identity would be best kept a secret.

This is a show where art style, music and story meld into a beautiful piece. One of the biggest things that drew me to this show is the low use of dialogue in episodes because the actions and expressions of the characters is more than enough to convey the story and emotions. I'm excited for the new season coming up.
