* [[And the Fandom Rejoiced]]: What's that, you say? The movie is in development? Progressing development?
** Oh and what's that you say? '''[[J.J. Abrams]] is producing it?!'''
* [[Non Sequitur Scene]]: In that episode where a rabbit steals Jack's clothes (Pfft, that episode on it's own was [[Non Sequitur Scene|kind of a Non Sequitur Scene]] [[Non Sequitur Episode|episode]]), there's a scene where an...elephant...fairy...'''THING''' randomly flies by with this ghostly, wailing noise. Never mentioned, never explained. What's worse, at the end of that episode, right before the credits start, it flies past [[The Stinger]] AGAIN with that same creepy noise!
* [[Broken Base]]: Fans tend to be divided on the final result of Season 5 {{spoiler|and the ending to the series as a whole.}}
** His[[Complete Monster]]: wife,[[Evil Matriarch|The High Priestess]] of the Cult of Aku in Season 5, {{spoiler|whose daughters she had sired by Aku, Ashi included}}, is also easily one of the darkest and vilest villainvillains to appear on the show, without question. She treats her own children horribly, including burning their skin and having them brutally beaten by one of her minions for getting distracted. She even makes them kill her own cult. [[Villain of the Week|The Dominator]] in that same season isenslaves arguablychildren worseand thanmakes herthem fight Jack, knowing that he can't hurt children.
** [[CompleteLaughably MonsterEvil]]: as he may be, Aku ishimself thecould livingbe viewed embodimentas ofbeing allone, thatas he is evil and the supreme ruler of the show's universe. In his original form (being a small fragment of a Black Mass), it wasand responsible for exterminatingnearly all the dinosaurshorrible thatthings everJack existedgoes on Earth, causing them nightmarish agony while it devoured them alivethrough. LaterHe this thing continues to random killing (including animals and innocent people). When the birth of Aku occurs, the creature becomes even worse: he forcesforced The Emperor (Jack's father) to watch his beloved kingdom be destroyed with a sadistic glee., Akueven destroysdestroying Jack's home city while laughing maniacally. He also kidnapped Jack's father, enslaved him for years (and perhaps decades) and sentenced him to forced labor while privatizing him of health, food and water. Something, which he would repeatdo into many other people and lands for thousand of years. Worse, in his [[Bad Future]], the slaves of his govermentgovernment are punished terribly and sometimes executed, impaled or crucified, such in the case of the Talking Dogs. And as if that was not enough, he also plundered the resources of other planets. Over the years, Aku continued to make Jack's life as miserable as possible, right down to pulling Jack out of a time portal he was in the middle of jumping through and mocking him relentlessly. Years later, Heforcing forceshis hisown daughter Ashi to fight Jack and eventually corruptscorrupting her body, putting her in a [[And I Must Scream]] as she is aware of her actions in her corrupted form. And to make this worse, he had just met her and isultimately quickly made aware of Jack's and her feelings for each other. And finally, he triestrying to kill his own daughterher simply because she refused to kill Jack.
** His wife,[[Evil Matriarch|The High Priestess]] of the Cult of Aku in Season 5, {{spoiler|whose daughters she had sired by Aku, Ashi included}}, is also easily one of the darkest and vilest villain to appear on the show, without question. [[Villain of the Week|The Dominator]] in that same season is arguably worse than her.
* [[Crazy Awesome]]: The Scotsman.
* [[Creepy Awesome]]: Aku, the shape-shifting master of evil!
Line 27 ⟶ 25:
** "No money for you, crazy round man."
** "GREAT FLAMING EYEBROWS!"
** "Extra THICK!" - originally part of a particularly non-sequitur line "I'd like a large... what? Extra THICK!" from when Aku was ordering an assassin. It's been used mostly for women perceived to be thick (as in, having a [[Baby Got Back|juicy ass]])... which only made it explode again after Ashi from the show's fifth season revival fit the definition ''perfectly''.
* [[Nightmare Fuel]]:
** Oh god, that elephant-fairy thing from Jack is Naked.
Line 39 ⟶ 38:
* [[Periphery Demographic]]: It's a kid's show on Cartoon Network. It's ostensibly aimed at 6- to 12-year-olds. Cartoon Network apparently took note of how many older viewers watched the show, including those 6 to 12 year olds who grew up with the show, when they revived the show for a final season and put it on Adult Swim.
* [[Squick]]: [[The Reveal]] at the end of ''The Warrior Woman'', even if it was obvious.
* [[What Do You Mean It's Not for Kids?]]: The fifth and final season aired on Adult Swim and contained graphic violence, some profanity and sexual innuendos. To a lesser extent, the first four seasons also count due to how stylized and graphic the robotic gore was.
