Samurai Jack: The Complete Series Box Set (BD) [Blu-ray]

Samurai Jack was a childhood favorite and inspiration! Glad I found these as couldn’t find it in stores or online to watch anywhere and was worried Jack’s epic tale would be lost forever.“Jack jump good!”

Ok lets set aside the price of this set. If you are a fan you will make allowances for it. The brass tax is all 5 seasons are here in a surprisingly slim case that comes with a glossy sleeve. This is the Region B UK edition, comes with English subs which when it comes to manga/animation is a rarity. Seasons 1-4 are aspect ratio 4x3 while the latest season5 is 16x9 Anamorphic. The show looks great, I've started from Season 1 and can safely say the transfer is well worth the upgrade from DVD. The Blu-ray version looks cleaner and colours pop out more. Definitely an improvement, the DVD version looks more muted and fuzzy. Detail is clear and crisp and watching it all on a widescreen TV is where it all comes together and is where all the price of this goes to. Plenty of special features also (see pics). Only real negative is that it is pricey, maybe the most I've paid so far for an animation set. But as a huge fan of the show I couldn't pass up having it all collected together in HD and the slim case make it a shelf space saver in a ever growing collection loaded with large box sets.

Samurai Jack is as good as any cartoon gets. It is a complete anomaly amongst other cartoons of the early 00s, but really it’s quite unique for any era. There is a slow, meditative quality to this show that lends every scene additional weight and the art style is really quite beautiful throughout. The item arrived exactly when it was supposed to and the DVDs are in a decent case (not those horrible thin things they often give you now.)

I never fully appreciated Samurai Jack as a kid since I was too young to understand… but buy this show after season 5 was the best idea to do so! Seeing all of its glory, battles and meanings, the adventures of Jack against the forces of evil, finding his way back to the past to defeat Master of all Masters: Aku!The many foes, the friends he’s made and of course, the final series really putting him through the test, finding his way back, not just to the past… but the path-of a Samurai.

An awesome show, an awesome series makes this an awesome collection. I was a bit late to the Samurai Jack series, but once I watched one episode I was hooked and never looked back. I have been waiting for the final season for year and I have to say it is worth the wait. Having the whole series in this collection is just the extra strawberry on top. Apart from having all the episodes I also get all the extras like interviews, storyboards and behind scenes stuff. This is worth every penny for me.

Anyone looking to buy this knows what they’re getting: One of the best animated shows created!I just wanted to write a review to say at this time or typing this, the release has the official UK packaging, and not the european one.It still has the whole series in one case and it looks great.Been having a blast going through these episodes again, and it has some extra features, like behind the scenes and certain episodes have commentary.Definitely a great collection to own for all Samurai Jack fans!

The complete series of samurai Jack has finally been released in region 2 format and although I didn't think much of the dvd case, the DVDs were outstanding and complete in just about every aspect. Some people are more picky than me but it's a quality release all the same if you're a samurai Jack fan or just loved the series.

It is so good to see these again. I was worried my 2003 dvd player wouldn't work with this region disk here in the UK, and was prepared to connect up my laptop to the tv to watch them but happy happy joy joy no problems. I love this show, it is art in motion and a must see if you haven't. Get it before it is gone.
