Born from a cosmic black mass of darkness, Aku was an evil, shapeshifting demon that has taken over the world and ruled it for countless eons. Throughout the series, he was voiced by Mako Iwamatsu in seasons 1 4, but was replaced by Greg Baldwin in Season 5, following Makos death in 2. Though he was capable of shifting form into virtually anything he wished due to his metamorphic body, his standard form after self upgrading and adaptation to the Earth was roughly a humanoid being with a black body, a green mouth, and a red beard extending from the bottom of his chin.

He had six horns, four long and two short, extending from his head, and eyebrows made of red, flickering flame. In his standard form, he also tends not to have legs, with his body simply ending at the bottom with robe like darkness that sometimes manifested as flames. He was several stories tall. A deep droning noise was often heard around him when he appears. Aku constantly antagonized Jack, often attacking him when he is weak, and other times defending himself from Jacks own gambits. Prior to Ashi sending Jack back in time to vanquish his past self, the two seem doomed never to defeat each other, and while Jack has beaten him on numerous occasions, Aku merely transformed into a creature and retreats, usually calling out a taunt over his shoulder, a fact that he was entirely aware of and even lampshaded in Episode XLVIII Jack versus Aku, which eventually discouraged him from fighting Jack further. Aku could be considered the deuteragonist of the series as a whole albeit a rare, villainous one, as while Ashi becomes this in Season 5, Aku had the most focus in the narrative besides Jack. While hes usually presented as a serious and threatening foe, Aku is also a source of comedy in the show, due to his outrageous design and sometimes wise guy behavior, supported by Makos over the top voice acting. Aku means Evil in Japanese. It is written as in Kanji. The kanji can also be pronounced as Waru. Biography Origin Long ago in the vastness of space, a great, formless, mindless entity of evil arose. Before it could do harm to the universe, it was set upon by the three prime deities of the Aesir, Egyptian, and Hindu mythologies Odin the All father, Ra the Sun God, and Vishnu, the Supreme God and Soul. The three deities fought a fierce battle against the black mass, burning the entity almost completely out of existence with their divine power. However, during the battle, one small fragment of the entity was incidentally cut from the whole by Odin and did not burn away. Unnoticed by the three deities, this seemingly small fragment floated away from the site of the battle and drifted through space for an untold amount of time, until it eventually, and violently, crashed on Earth during the Cretaceous period of the Mesozoic era. It is implied that the fragment of the black mass was the very object that caused the extinction of the dinosaurs although the crash occurred in prehistoric Japan as opposed to the Yucatan peninsula by a massive asteroid. Over eons, the fragment evolved into an ever growing ominous forest of black tree like spikes, surrounding a tar like pit at its center that devoured any living thing that dared enter. Eventually the forest grew so large that the Emperor Jacks father decided to kill the evil at its source. Armed with a poison elixir given to him by a Buddhist monk, the Emperor and his cavalry rode into the heart of the forest. But as they rode, the forest began to kill his men, leaving the Emperor himself as the only survivor. Once he arrived at the black lake in the forests center, the Samurai Lord doused an arrow into the elixir he was given and fired it into the black lake, believing that it would destroy the evil forest. Unexpectedly, the poison arrows magic had the unforeseen effect of galvanizing the evil mass into a humanoid form, giving it intelligence, sentience, and shape shifting abilities. The evil proclaimed its name to be Aku, and thanked the Emperor for inadvertently helping him. The Emperor attacked Aku, but with nothing more than his mundane, mortal weapons, he could inflict no harm upon the being. Aku easily defeated the Emperor and strapped him to the side of a tree so that he could watch as Aku began to destroy his home and slaughter his people. However, the Deities, sensing the good in the Samurai Lord, summoned him to them with the aid of Odins horse Sleipnir. Taking the good inside him, they used avatar bodies to create an enchanted sword that was capable of harming Aku. Armed with the sword and a magical suit of armor, the Emperor plunged into battle against Aku. In the end, the Emperor was victorious and proceeded to seal him in the devastated wasteland in the form of a jagged black tree. As he was sealed away, Aku vowed he would one day return. During the battle, the Emperors wife gave birth to a son. Determined to learn from the catastrophe, and aware that Aku would indeed one day return, the Emperor and his family hatched a plan, and orchestrated the events that would set Jack on his eventual years of training. Return Eight years later, during a solar eclipse, the seal the emperor placed on Aku broke and was released. His first target was the village of the emperor who sealed him eight years prior. In a castle, Jack was a young child and his father was telling him how he defeated Aku. After the story was done, Jack was left alone, playing with a toy sword. Suddenly, the castle was covered in Akus shadow. Aku unleashed a vicious attack on the city. Jacks father attempted to get the sword, but Aku captured him before he could reach it. The Lord told his wife it was time to enact the plan they had prepared. Following the plan, Jacks mother escaped with him and the sword. Jack then started on his journey to prepare both physically and mentally for his confrontation against Aku. Many years later, a formidably trained Jack returned to find his land devastated and his people, including his father, enslaved and horribly suffering, forced to harvest the rich resources of their land for Aku to increase his powers and spread his evil across the entire planet. Filled with righteous wrath, Jack quickly slew Akus minions and went to Akus palace to slay him. After a vicious battle, Jack eventually overpowered Aku. However, before Jack could finish him off, a desperate Aku tore open a portal in time and flung him into the distant future, a future in which Aku was certain that his evil would be spread out all over the world. The Future Unknown millennia passed before Jack reappeared into the future. During that time, Aku managed to terrorize and subjugate the majority of the entire world, making himself the undisputed ruler of Earth. Although he began with demonic servants to carry out his will, he later became enamored with mechanical ones since his demonic servants could not carry out his tasks fast enough. Aku then recruited mad scientists to make the X Model. All but one were eventually destroyed before the next generation of Akus army was developed the Beetle Drones. Successors to the X Models, the beetle drones became the model for a series of insect themed minions that served Aku well into the height of his power, and were his standard henchmen. Hungry for more power, Aku established the Earth as a space faring world, opening his ports to surrounding worlds in order to plunder and conquer worlds beyond as well.
