Was it confirmed he would get his sword back? Or could we see him get another?

Jack with a Mini gun. Hell yes.
Definitely more adult but I'm glad it didn't feel like it abandoned any of the character or humour the OG show had. Felt like pure Cartoon Network in places.

My god, that episode was spectacular!! I'm looking forward to seeing the rest of the season as it unfolds over the next nine weeks.
JACK IS BACK.

He's got to get it back at some point. Literally can't beat Aku without it.

Damn, what situation Jack would be in that he loses his sword.
Not confirmed but you know he'll have to at some point. That sword is the only thing that can stand up to Aku.

That was everything I wanted and more. Jesus, Genndy, you knocked it out of the park.
The way we learned so much about the girls just from a series of brief scenes was incredible. Great storytelling that really helps give them character and personality, and gives the audience a lot of understanding into their mindsets and actions.

Toonami started airing it early.
Man, that was Samurai Jack alright.
Also, Speuler:
is Aku missing as well
the Headmistress implied during the training sequences.
Aired on Adult Swim's stream about just before the TV airdate.
So, I'm thinking
Jack ended up in some situation where he was 100% guaranteed a portal back home, that phantom horseman fucked him up, he lost the sword and the way back, and barely escaped with his life, and with the only means of defeating Aku seemingly gone and what he perceived to be the last portal to the past destroyed by Aku, he's trying to fix what he can in his present time but can't shake the feeling of failure pursuing him in his PTSD, and he's got to live with that as a curse because he no longer ages and is forced to watch the world around him degrade to Aku's influence. So we're in a future where Aku has even more total victory than he did before

Having it in full widescreen is just amazing as well.

Yep, didn't miss a beat. It's like Season 4 only ended last year. Easy to see why Tartakovsky loves it the most out of all his animated projects.
Right? He couldn't have shot a bird or something?
The
Scatssassin called Aku on the phone and he answered so I think he's still active. I think the stuff with the seven assassins takes place in the past and that's why they were able to timeskip through their training.
Maybe Jack actually beat Aku in this time but needed to back to defeat him in the past to make sure that all of the corruption was undone, and during the time that he was looking for a way back, those assassins were trained, Aku was resurrected, and Jack lost his sword.

One or more of those sisters are probably gonna go rogue or be redeemed later on so I wouldn't worry about it.
