In one episode, he can be a light villain with a trolling sense of humor, but in the very next, he can act like some alien parasite that acts like Fear & Evil incarnate. Why is his/its personality so unpredictable Cred Forums?
The episodic nature of the show means the Villain is whatever you need him to be at the moment
Cameron King
Its funny because he has shapeshifting powers too.
Liam Mitchell
Pretty much this.
I imagine with a clear ending in mind, the final season will show Aku being far more malicious and focused. But when the show was episodic without a planned ending, Aku didn't necessarily need to be hellbent on killing Jack every episode. Just needed to provide proper motivation for the individual episode's plot.
Asher Garcia
An overwhelming sense of complacency. He doesn't need to be serious all the time because he feels he is so above mortals.
Connor Johnson
Evil has many faces, and Aku represents that with his unpredictability.
Nolan Smith
he's literally primordial evil and most of the time he's just doing shit for his own amusement with varying levels of trying to protect himself from Jack and the sword.
Chase White
I haven't watched the show in about a year, but it feels weird that the same villain from the first three episodes that makes every race he encounters extinct or work slaves, is literally a parasite that corrupts or destroys matter around it. (the black forests and black tar pits), Vaporizes a random civilian for the slightest provocation with no sense of remorse, Turned the entire planet into Fallout/Mad Max, and does horrible punishments to people who try to resist him - is the same entity who can be extremely incompetent to the point its comedic, and mostly just tries to harmlessly/playfully troll Jack on episodes that are not setup-ing something important.

I don't think Aku is inconsistent. He's always stupidly evil, like when he tricked some fish dudes into killing Jack by promising them something and he goes "lol actually I won't keep my promise, tricked you suckers!" BEFORE Jack is dead, so of course the fish dudes free Jack and Jack kicks Aku's ass. Or when he asks a scientist to make him super robots to kill Jack and then proceeds to destroy the scientist's city. Guess what happens next.

Well, the sword and actual gods. Remember, the goddess protecting Neptune's Jewel beat the fucking tar out of Aku when he went to try and get it for himself.
Benjamin Perez
There's a difference between beating and killing. Those elementals were strong enough to beat him in a fight, however, only the sword has the power to actually slay him.
Lincoln Campbell

Jordan Taylor
Oh I know, the post just said "fuck with Aku", and I'd consider getting the shit beaten out of him fucking with him.
Also I'd bet if Odin, Ra and Vishnu weren't such lazy faggots they could kill Aku, since they were the ones who killed the majority of the evil that Aku spawned from.
Angel Mitchell
They'll definitely could. I however think gods have this mindset of "we did the hardest part, now you mortals just have to clean up the last pieces."
Parker Sanchez
s-source...
Christopher Moore
If you're born as powerful as Aku, you never have to mature. He's forever frozen as an impudent 2 year old, breaking things because he likes to see them break, because he's bored, whatever. Because he's that powerful, he doesn't have to rely on others, and in doing so accept responsibilities towards them, he doesn't have to learn how to quiet his mind and desires because he has learned his limits, etc.
Easton Price
Aku
Charles Cook
>I however think gods have this mindset of "we did the hardest part, now you mortals just have to clean up the last pieces."
That's probably a safe assumption, although given what we know from The Birth of Evil and the Minions of Set episode, it's really easy to come to the conclusion that the gods are just being lazy and taking any opportunity to get out of helping with the problem THEY created (treating Jack's dad accidentally awakening Aku as if it was his fault that the evil shard landed on Earth in the first place and refusing to help Jack find a portal back through time to clean up said mess).
Jack Perez
I wonder why religions always picture their gods as such tremendous assholes. Well, I know they did because people wanted to put the fault of their misfortunes on someone, but still, why would I want to praise such dicks?
Colton Young
You were meant to fear and obey your gods, user.
Colton Torres
Not all religions demand worship in the way Christianity does. A lot of the offerings and things weren't worship so much as a kind of respect thing, or trade thing. It's kind of like how you'll always be polite to the boss when he says hi.
Also the gods are often pictured as tremendous assholes because the world is brutal. The gods served as science before there was science, so they needed to explain things or at least seem true to the nature of things.
Alexander Bennett
The sword does not kill him either, that's why Jack's father did not finish him. Aku does not really die.
Sebastian Myers

Yeah, that one I knew. I just would like to know how you go from coming up to an explanation for the existence of the Sun to start thinking that unless you have human sacrifices every week the Sun will go off.
Austin Cox
Aren´t the 7 Deadly Sins a Christian thing? Why bringing that to an evil god of Asian ancestry?
Oliver Clark
Because ritual is an institutationally regulated mode of creating identity in reference to transcendant discourse.
Dominic Myers
Confusing correlation with causation, and reasoning by analogy.
You wonder one day, what if I could appease the crops like I can appease the tribe, by singing to them regularly. You sing for them regularly and they grow super big because of luck or whatever, and so you tell everyone else it worked, and then a few other people make the same mistake in reasoning, making you think its true.
Elijah Morris
Because Blossom is a Westerner, so Aku's evil seed probably latched on to her ideals of sin.
If she was Asian she'd have so many goddamn demons growing right now.
Ryder Walker
So, a guy ripped someone's heart out and when he was questioned about it he just went >I did it so the Sun won´t go off! And since the Sun didn´t go off they took it as a sign to keep killing people?

Ayden Richardson
It's a less literal and more elaborate version of the same process.
Ryan Long
>Which is a bit weird when so many gods can whoop his ass.
Well, he probably stays away from the worlds that have gods that can kick his ass and restricts trade with those worlds. There may be entire planets full of people who have no idea that Aku and the rest of his intergalactic empire exist.
As far as the overarching gods go, I assume they're taking a technical approach to the whole situation. After all, Aku isn't really DESTROYING the universe so much as ENSLAVING it. People are still technically alive (barring the occasional resistance here and there, which doesn't count against Aku because they CHOSE to fight him), so they have no reason to chase him down (as opposed to the formless evil he spawned from, which was just pure unrestricted destruction).
Cooper Taylor
Does anyone have the comic where Aku fools Jack by turning into a woman AGAIN purely to fuck with him?
Kevin Sanchez
well, the universe is a MUCH bigger place so it's not entirely crazy that he'd have dominion over a galaxy. Maybe the other gods are too bust in andromeda or some shit to pay attention
Christian Adams
Kinda makes sense. Gods in stories generally don't care what happens as long as they claim their share of sweet tasty souls in the end. Aku isn't really disputing their afterlife.
Oliver Parker

Isaiah Mitchell
Hanabi is too fucking cute holy shit I would sell my eternal soul to be able to snuggle with her for thirty minutes
Jacob Price
He's been alive for countless millennia. After a while, having already conquered all there is to conquer, he became bored and more lax. From countless past experiences, he knows no one can ever even come close to beating him, so he toys with them for his own amusement. Most of the time it's never a serious threat. However, when the stakes are high and the moment calls for seriousness, he'll remind you all exactly why he's the ruler of everything in the first place.
Jackson Price
Wasn't there a horror movie like this?
Leo Wilson
Aku is a huge threat, but you've gotta realize that Jack has the one and only thing that can stop him from obliterating him. When he gets shit done, he gets shit done, but when he doesn't have shit to do he just kind of lazes around and entertains his own self-interests. Jack's sword puts him in a bit of a stalemate, so he spends a lot of time without anything to do and he ends up occupying that time with unsuccessful schemes to get rid of Jack, or petty schemes just to make Jack's life difficult.
Connor Gutierrez
I think their mindset is much like this: >If you do too much, people get dependent on you. And if you do nothing, they lose hope. You have to use a light touch, like a safecracker or a pickpocket.
Alexander Ramirez

Hudson Adams
Yes, if you make it look like an electrical thing. When you do things right, people won't be sure you've done anything at all.
Brody Morales
I always thought that Gods would draw the line at, well, other divine intervention. Ok, your God won´t descend from the heavens to stop a war, but if an ancient evil deity comes to enslave a galaxy or even more you´d think they´d get more involved since the whole "keeping the existence of gods ambiguous" falls apart rather quickly with that.
Levi Edwards
I wonder how far Aku's dominions extend. The planet of the Huntsmen seemed rather free of his influence even if there wasn´t much there for him to conquer, that we saw.
Isaiah Morris
Aku. Shendu is immortal and cannot be truly harmed but magic is a major weakness.
Jason Gutierrez
Makes sense. Different question; who do you think would be more troublesome for Jack to kill; Aku or Shendu?
Cooper Martin
>I just would like to know how you go from coming up to an explanation for the existence of the Sun to start thinking that unless you have human sacrifices every week the Sun will go off. Well you generally don't. Unless you're an Inca and thus pretty weird to begin with. But most cultures interpreted gods as well meaning but fallible and at worst just trigger happy. A lot of how we see ancient gods is skewed by the values dissonance of the last 2,000 years.

Did you not watch "The Birth of Evil"?
The Gods tried to kill pre-Aku while it was still basically a mindless abomination and three of them working together couldn't do it.
Whatever the Emperor did gave Aku a name, a voice, a personality. A surprisingly human nature, if a twisted and terrible one. The Gods said "nah fuck that you're on your own now you broke it you fix it" and essentially abandoned Earth because they can't do anything; the evil of the human spirit made it too powerful for them, but the good in the human spirit can at least keep it in check.

Aaron Sanders
That's what I was concerned about. So, Chi wants to fuck her half sister? The same way Mimi wants to fuck her half brother. Seriously, what the fuck Bleedman? I can tolerate the loli but all this incest is making me question several conceptions about your persona! Also, it's kinda creepy.

Aku can literally wait out until Jack dies of old age, unless he gets bored enough to make him immortal so their little game can last forever. In any case, time is on Aku's side, which means he has the upper hand in their entire relationship. He´s just fucking with Jack for shits and giggles; if he really wanted to win he´d just rule the world from a different place every day until Jack passes away.

Wyatt Walker
Yep. Though I think Jack and Aku are already kind of like siblings, thanks to the Emperor. If you think about it, Jack's father accidentally created Aku in a similar way Utonium accidentally created the Powerpuffs. He's technically the closest thing to a "dad" that Aku has. Pic somewhat related.
So if Aku is then linked to the girls through being Chemical X, then he could be considered their brother, great-great-great-grand-uncle, one of their three dads, and/or a previous incarnation of the girls themselves; Maybe even all of these simultaneously. And if he takes one of them as a companion, he will then become Jack's half-brother and great-great-great-grandson-in-law.
He fucks up everything.
I'm not picky.

Aku knows that Jack is destined to defeat him. He is also very trope aware, which is why he would rather mess around with the Samurai and delay him incessantly, rather than force a showdown he's doomed to lose.
It's even in the intro. Aku flung Jack into the future just as a stall.

Hunter Williams
Is Aku even that bad of a ruler?
The earth, under Aku's rule, has developed to be very technologically advanced, trades with dozens of alien civilizations, and is seemingly not at war (besides those who oppose Aku)
Christian Mitchell
I think the only major problem would be that Aku encourages criminal behaviors and would oppose the creation of a police-like force.
Easton Bell
>entering slavery and servitude for technological gain
Also I don't know if you noticed but despite the technology most places are shitholes full of roaming half-man-half-alien-half-robot hybrid gangs and bandits who'll kill you over trivial things. It's hardly the ideal place to live.
Connor Green
He doesn't need a police-like force, HIS EVIL IS LAW, and he has robots and minions that enforce his laws and bounty hunters for when the robots and minions aren't enough.
Aku has good reason to believe that he cannot be completely destroyed forever. Nigga survived three gods AND the sword that was created by those gods and intended to be the only thing capable of defeating him. But that doesn't mean he's just going to let himself get imprisoned again. To Aku, that would be a fate worse than death.
There are three reasons Jack is still alive: >Aku wants to prolong Jack's suffering while also making sure to cover his own ass whenever possible >Aku has nothing better to do >Jack has plot armor

He isn't afraid of being bored without Jack, as he went without seeing Jack as he was being flung into the future, which was likely hundreds if not thousands of years later.

Pretty much any ridiculous idea, if presented well enough, is strangely captivating. Such as this AMV in which Jane from Tarzan falls in love with Captain Amelia from Treasure Planet and then they fight the bad guy from Osmosis Jones. youtube.com/watch?v=ahVKiBDMBHw

Why didn't Aku just portal Jack into deep space to die?

The one issue with nuking Jack from orbit is that Aku would never be able to confirm that the sword was destroyed. There could have been some benevolent magic force that saves Jack and the sword at the last minute and the fallout from the nuke would leave Aku none the wiser. I think that's part of the reason that Aku used so many bounty hunters, because they would provide solid proof of Jack's demise rather than all evidence being lost in nuclear hell-fire.
It's akin to swatting at a spider full force but not being able to find the body later; yeah that SHOULD have done the job, but you can never know for sure. If I can't find the spider, then it's alive. I'm sure that Aku thinks the same way.

Wrong They constantly call him a wizard throughout season 1

>The one issue with nuking Jack from orbit By nuking I was only referring to killing him from a distance Jack couldn't hope to reach, there's no need for Aku to go all out *which would end Jack in a direct fight anyway*.
>Aku would never be able to confirm that the sword was destroyed. Aku can scry things even in he doesn't know where they are or what he's looking for. The sword is indestructible, Jack is the issue, after he's dead Aku can trivially retrieve the blade.
>I think that's part of the reason that Aku used so many bounty hunters Aku uses bounty hunters because they provide colorful mooks for Jack to fight in unique ways. There's no reason he couldn't send army after army of robots after Jack to keep him for fighting weeks on end while flooding the environment with radiation and poison.
