    Samurai Jack

    So. I started getting into Samurai Jack now that they're giving it a season 5.

    And I just realized something.

    Nightmare Moon's story is just Samurai Jack from the other perspective.

    Finally, someone sat down and did space combat RIGHT. No longer will we have to argue about if "fighters are useless" or the value of the "cube squared law." Finally, we can sit down and say "this works, and this doesn't."

    Stuff I bought with my No Man's Sky refund: Duskers

    So! In the wake of the No Man's Sky fiasco, namely it not being half the game it was promised to be, I find myself with 60 bucks in my steam wallet needing somewhere to go. And I figure some of you might be in the same situation. SO, in the spirit of that, I give you:

Samurai Jack · 4:33am Mar 16th, 2017

So. I started getting into Samurai Jack now that they're giving it a season 5.

And I just realized something.

Nightmare Moon's story is just Samurai Jack from the other perspective.

Actually, it's more of an inversion of Samurai Jack, it's still the same perspective (Entity A using magic to banish Entity B for a time period), but this time it's the 'white' driving away the 'dark'.

Also there's the inversion of the story being in the intro of the MLP pilot, but not in succeeding intros, whereas the intro story in Samurai Jack only happens after the pilot episode.

I said something earlier on a distant story, but here goes:

Long ago in a distant land, a shape-shifting master of darkness's sister unleashed
unspeakable harmony. A foolish nightmare, wielding magic armor
Stepped forth to oppose her. Before decisive blows could be struck,
a portal was torn open to the moon,
Flinging Nightmare into the future, where love and tolerance is law.
Now the fool seeks to return to the Eternal Night of the past, and undue the future that is Celestia.

4458197 Oh wow, I didn't notice the intro thing. That's weird, but cool in context.

"Nightmare Moon's story is just Samurai Jack from the other perspective." No its not.
