I don't mind the show being cliched and predictable and poorly written, I mind that it wasn't cliched and predictable and poorly written in the right way. For most of season 5 they were building up to the predictable cliche ending of Jack staying in the future and making a life there because he had to let the past and his failures go. That would've been cliche, but fine. Instead they tried to do the fallen hero trope AND gave him a deus ex machina so that he could go back to the past and those two things are contradictory.
Remember when Yea Forums had such high hopes for this?

I mostly remember tumblr losing their minds at the heteronormity of this scene.

This.
Number one rule of writing. Don't give a character what they want, give them what they need.
Aladdin WANTS to be a prince and be taken seriously and marry Jasmine. He NEEDS to be honest and true to himself.
Beast WANTS to be left alone to stew in his self pity forever. What he NEEDS is to find someone he can finally love more than he loves himself.
What Jack WANTS is to get back to thebpast and undo his greatest mistake. What he NEEDS is to forgive himself and let go so he can make a better future.

the whole season and the ending was worth it for those masterful 3 first episodes

I'll be honest. The plot wouldn't have been bad (except the I can just send Jack back in time with no knowledge about the spell, lmao) had they expanded it into two seasons.

I was laughing my ass at this party because I new how big the butthurt would have been on Yea Forums.
Luis Gonzalez
Yes. And I wasn't disappointed. It's a sad ending, but that's fitting for Samurai Jack.
