Episode Description:
This episode starts with everyone in the world gathering around their TVs for a live broadcast from Aku’s fortress. Aku announces to the world that he has captured Jack and isolated his sword, and decides that Ashi should kill him. As Ashi is about to stab the Samurai, many of Jack’s allies rally to Jack's defense, assaulting Aku and his fortress. After they free Jack, Aku overpowers them and Ashi prevents him from recovering his sword. While dodging Ashi's attacks, Jack frees her from Aku's possession by telling her that he loves her. Ashi then discovers that she possesses Aku's powers, and uses them to send herself and Jack back to his home time, specifically the moment when Aku first flung Jack into the future. Jack finally kills Aku, freeing his family and creating a brighter future. Jack and Ashi prepare to get married, but as Ashi walks the aisle, she suddenly collapses and disappears, informing Jack with her last breath that Aku's demise invalidates her existence. Jack temporarily grieves, but finds closure as he watches a ladybug flying free in a sunlit grove with cherry blossom trees in bloom.
