Jack’s worst fear comes true when he faces off against Aku, and the demon makes a shocking discovery about Ashi that puts her in grave danger.
Jack just can’t catch a break. Just as it seems like he will be able to find happiness with Ashi, his mission calls him back. Seriously, the pair is one of the most adorable couples to come along in a while. Of course given what happens in this episode, it’s starting to feel like Jack may never get a happy ending.
By the look of things Jack is up a creek without a paddle. As Aku and Jack meet for the first time in awhile it becomes clear Aku will be defeated with a few sword swings. Unfortunately, Aku is ever the trickster and finds a new way to make Jack feel pain. His journey has been long and he doesn’t deserve to have such a soul shattering encounter. Of course by doing so the show finds a new way to pick up the intensity and prepare for the series finale.
