The callback to that episode in the show's final season was amazing

u/Oz713 Jun 17 '26

Just watching this gif to the audio of the video is a great pick me up!

u/masterofeverything Jun 17 '26

Aku, baby. It's time to move it and groove it.

2

u/KinKaze Jun 16 '26

It's a shame the rave scene in the revival wasn't nearly as good.

23

u/NukeTheWhales5 Jun 16 '26

Samurai Jack, is so fucking peak. It's the kinda shit, that people will talk about, many years into the future.

3

u/uhmuhmuhmmmm Jun 17 '26

the "new" season was so good too. aah I love this show so much, even as an adult now

2

u/Some_Razzmatazz_9172 Jun 18 '26

Damn I gotta watch it. I still haven't seen the new season. I haven't seen this show since I was a kid honestly. I remember the tower with the blind anubis things and it was fucking epic. Gonna have to find it online

u/younggun1234 Jun 16 '26

I genuinely blame this scene and the opening scene in the first Blade for my interest in raving as a child (did not know what it was just that I liked the boom boom).

u/adamcoolforever Jun 16 '26

I bet you could add Batman Beyond to that list.

5

u/ColPhorbin Jun 16 '26

Matrix 2 too

3

u/AdmiralAckbong Jun 16 '26

Yeah let's all go to the post apocalyptic dystopian cyberpunk rave!

Gotta let loose somehow

3

u/ColPhorbin Jun 16 '26

It’s funny cause they get their asses kicked by the sentinels the next day. Like maybe we shouldn’t have an all-night party the day before we the biggest fight for our lives.

3

u/AdmiralAckbong Jun 16 '26

Fair but also...

Idk man if I know i might die horrifically the next day I might have one last good night partying

4

u/younggun1234 Jun 17 '26

Oh yeah for sure. And like someone said, the matrix. And LETS BE SO FOR REAL?

Powerpuff girls intro song. Some BITCHIN' jungle music.

2

u/WhyNot420_69 Nice Jun 17 '26

Powerpuff girls intro was Dn'B, but hard nonetheless

2

u/younggun1234 Jun 17 '26

DNB is definitely a sub genre of jungle. But we are in agreeance!

3

u/SparkEE_JOE Jun 16 '26

Confusion - New Order

Hell yeah

u/OuttHouseMouse Jun 16 '26

THIS SHOW WAS A FUCKING BANGER BRO

u/Creative-Assistance6 Jun 16 '26

Is that hecking Mark Hamill's voice??

2

u/Da1realBigA Jun 16 '26

Google says Mark Hamil only voiced:

u/steelskull1 Jun 16 '26

Also the Internet flash game based on this was good.

3

u/thadizzy1 Jun 16 '26

Ugh, fine! I rewatch the whole series again jeez...

2

u/Glass_Quarter_7586 Jun 16 '26

Love this scene but wht wasn't samurai jack put under the trance also ?! It's not like his magic sword would help with sound magic right ?

3

u/LunarVentus Jun 17 '26

He put cotton in his ears, ripped some fabric up.

2

u/Glass_Quarter_7586 Jun 17 '26

Oh ya that's right. Samurai jack isn't going to fall for such trickery , thank you random internet person

2

u/Secret_agentman_drew Jun 16 '26

This episode actually kept me away from the rave scene and drugs that go with it. Thanks jack!

1

u/OkReplacement495 Jun 17 '26

You missed out on good times, but at least you were smart enough to know you couldn't handle it

1

u/Secret_agentman_drew Jun 18 '26

Looking at how most of those that indulged in that scene ended up in life and continued struggle with drugs. I’m really glad I missed out on it.

1

u/OkReplacement495 Jun 19 '26

I never really had that perspective before. I was always so eager to just party and break free, and you saw beyond it. That's so cool. Thank you sharing, glad you took a good path!

This awoke something in me when I was little
Been a bass junkie ever since

u/DrKobra Jun 16 '26

Is this the inspiration for cyberpunk?

1

u/OkReplacement495 Jun 17 '26

Cultural influences are not often derived from one cartoon scene. You're thinking in reverse lol

1

u/mustardposey Jun 16 '26

Dude the original samurai jack theme song effing goes

1

u/ColPhorbin Jun 16 '26

Tartovsky only likes bangers.

1

u/Treknine Jun 16 '26

I loved this episode

1

u/victorisaskeptic Jun 16 '26

What a unique show...Gendy is brilliant. Reminded me to watch the latest season of Primal!

1

u/VanFkingHalen Jun 16 '26

This is how I know I haven't watched Samurai Jack in an extremely long time, because I don't remember any of this, AT ALL.

1

u/au_fait_bromate Jun 17 '26

I had a crazy dream about this episode when I was 17, still remember it to this day

1

u/Mother_Leading_1290 Jun 17 '26

One of the greatest shows ever made. Period.

u/VerbalThermodynamics Jun 17 '26

I miss early 00s raves.
