Description
So yeah...Demongo's alive... Somehow...
...
WHAT THE FUCK?!!!
So for people who haven't seen Samurai Jack or those who have, but haven't caught up with season 5 yet, this is a huge spoiler. Demongo, the soul stealer, was ( or "is" now, I guess)a minion of Aku who had his own episode and died at the end of it after failing to kill Jack. Or so we thought. According to the latest episode he apparently somehow survived Aku crushing him and now he's randomly running around... Somehow... Without, like, ANY kind of explanation...
So yeah... don't I feel silly for coming up with a whole story about how he managed to return and show up in the War Chronicles series... Damnit Tartakovsky...

One of the greatest episodes of Samurai Jack ever, but God damn it, I really needed some kind of explanation about Demongo's return, cause that is WAY too big of a bomb to drop.

I do thoroughly agree it was a great episode, and rather loved seeing all the characters make reappearances. Heck, did not even know about the Sam-oo-rai (no idea how it is properly spelled) until about a month ago. So many call-backs, and love how Ashi takes it all in. But a being we thought Aku destroyed now returns with little preamble....well, Scaramouche did manage to function as just a head.

All true. But still.
Backstory.
I.
Need.

Who knows, maybe he will run into the latest bounty hunter Jack cut down....er, if reducing him to a head counts as cutting down.

You know, that could be pretty interesting. Demongo and Scaramouche would make quite a combo.

One who controls the souls of fallen warriors and another who can manipulate matter via music....okay yeah, that does sound interesting.

I'm not sure he died in the episode. We saw that he begging Aku for fogivenes, and Aku says "no" and chrus the crystall skull with Demongo in it. But! how can wie know a demon can died like this? What ifΒ
It took a long time until he hated regenerating (without help from Aku), but it would be working, or???
besides this episode was soooo epic with all the redrringd characters! And we know now, that Jack has many friends in this world also 50 years.Β

Yeah, I know, the episode was awesome and it's probably my favourite one so far, and like you say, there's many ways Demongo could've returned. But IΒ wish the episode TOLD us how he did it. Now he just appears out of nowhere and goes away again. Now it's possible he'll reappear in a later episode and we'll get an explanation, and if that's the case I'll take back everything, but as it is now it just looks like a super random cameo that leaves way too many questions.

I also thought I was dead when aku crushed him

Yup. He was in episode 6 of season 5. Even though he should have died in season 1.

Wait I thought demongo was in season 2 or 4 or between
π: 0 β©: 1
Could be. The seasons aired completely random here in Belgium. It was one of the first episodes I saw though so I figured it was season one. I could be wrong.

What!!!!?!?!
(FLASHBACK)
Demongo: Β Please forgive me...
Aku: Β Β ...............no.
(Crushes the orb containing Demongo)

RIGHT?! That's what happened wasn't it?! How he heck do you live from that?!
π: 0 β©: 1
Only guess is he somehow managed to reform his body after being crushed in Aku's grip. Probably working solo now to get revenge on Jack

No, it was one heck of a twist, no question there, but come on, give us some context here! How is he ALIVE?!
π: 0 β©: 1
Ikr we ALL thought Aku Erased Him due to his Failure in the past!!!

For a moment I thought it was Scaramouche now as a wraith or something, RIP.

But he only got ten seconds of screentime to fill in a joke. Β π: 0 β©: 1
Pretty much this in a nutshell:

When I saw him come in, and after I finished laughing, I really did think:
"Well, know Crydius has no need to come up with some uber bullshit reason for him to be alive like he did with Grevious XD"
Glad I wasn't alone and you caught it too XD
π: 0 β©: 1
Oh I caught it. I had to pauze the video cause I couldn't process what I was seeing...
Now it's THEM who have to come up with some uber bullshit reason why he's alive.
I doubt we'll get one though, seeing as he was just a 10 second cameo.

I've also gathered that as the warriors were being partially resurrected he may have the power to bring HIMSELF back should he himself die.

I hope its not just a cameo given how popular he is!

Oh, soooooo...... He's alive now....? I guess...?
Welp, I guess you just wasted your time.

*pats shoulder*There, there...Β

I wonder if this was just a cameo for fanservice, or if we're going to see him again in a later episode where this will be explained.
Maybe Aku decided to resurrect him? Β Maybe Demongo is semi-immortal and can't be killed permanently (as in he reconstitutes himself after sometime, like a phoenix)? Β Who knows.

Oh hey Suit, long time no see. ^^
And yeah, I guess that's a fair point... God knows what Demongo even is, so maybe he could've survived SOMEHOW, but still, I would've liked the episode to explain it at least. If he does appear again in later episodes and they do explain it I'll gladly swallow my words and bow my head, though I kinda doubt it considering how short his appearance was.
π: 0 β©: 1
Well, Demongo's species is listed as "demon" on the Samurai Jack wiki...
I guess it's possible that he survived being crushed by Aku, but when he first enters the bar he yells "I have returned!". Β That really makes it sound like he did actually die and then come back to life. Β Not only that, it makes it sound like he just came back to life recently. Β I mean, why else would he randomly yell "I have returned"?
Hopefully we'll get some kind of answer eventually.

Hm... good point, good point...
Yeah. Let's hope.

Somehow, I get the feeling that he was the Western equivalent of "Fanservice" in this episode, because of how popular he was.
Though, I could be wrong, and me maybe could be back in the last few episodes in a climatic showdown between the Forces of Aku and the Forces of Samurai Jack.
Who knows? XD

I hope that's what they do, though I doubt it. Considering he was on screen for about 10 seconds I'll be really surprised if he plays any significant role in the future.
I'll be happy if he does though.
