Ashi

* Normal outfit
* Leaf outfit
* Corrupted by Aku

## Background

**Ashi** is the deuteragonist during Season 5 of Samurai Jack. She was born and raised as a member of the Daughters of Aku, seven sisters who served as assassins attempting to kill Jack. She later became the only surviving member and unwillingly accompany Jack. It was only later that she came to have doubts about Aku's true nature after Jack saves her life. She finally made a full turn-around when Jack showed her the destruction Aku has unleashed on the world and she saw all the good that the Samurai had done.

During her training as a child, Ashi found a hole in the wall to gaze upon the outside world. The High Priestess told her that the world was a creation of their master, Aku and that it was threatened so long as Jack lived to oppose Aku's rule. She was then thrown back into training and received punishment. By the time Ashi had reached adulthood at age 18, she and her sisters completed their training. They donned their masks and head coverings and set out to fulfill their mission. (Episode XCII)
Ashi and her sisters laid an ambush for Jack in a forest, destroying his motorbike and starting an intense battle with the samurai, forcing him to hide and later flee to an abandoned temple. Ashi and her sisters pursued their fleeing enemy into to the temple's underground crypt. Here they had another intense battle with the samurai, but he succeeded in killing one of Ashi's sisters and blew up the temple using Scaramouche's knife, briefly trapping the others inside. (Episode XCIII)
After breaking out of the rubble, Ashi carries her dead sister and says "Death is failure". She and her sisters use the Samurai's blood trail to track Jack. At night, she says she will take watch and looks at the stars before falling asleep in the tree. The next day, Ashi and a couple of her sisters witness a male and female deer nuzzling each other affectionately. Ashi and her other sisters are confused about what is happening as they do not know what love is. Ashi and her sisters track Jack to a forest clearing and he gives them a choice: go and live, or stay and face their destiny. The sisters remain steadfast in their resolve to complete their mission, and Jack responds, "So be it."
Ashi and her sisters attacked Jack relentlessly. However, this time Jack had the elements of concealment and surprise on his side, rather than the other way around as previously. The daughters of Aku found themselves outmatched as, one by one, Jack killed the sisters until only Ashi remained hanging off a cliff by the chain of her kusarigama. Seeing her sisters perish and having been bested, Ashi had a momentary breakdown as she ranted and swore that she would kill Jack, even as he dropped her to her presumed death. (Episode XCIV)
Initially playing dead, Ashi survived the fall and tried to kill Jack again numerous times, despite being chained up with her own weapon, eaten whole by a giant monster, and witnessing Jack's numerous attempts to save her life. Jack at one point had enough of Ashi's words and told her everything that she knew was wrong and it was Aku who had released the monstrosities upon our world to feed on his carnage. When Ashi calls Jack a liar, Jack says she may believe what she may, but if she opens her eyes and lets go of her hate, she would see the truth. Eventually, after escaping the monster, Ashi attempts to kill Jack with the sickle of her kusarigama by sneaking up on him, before noticing a ladybug fly by. This triggered a flashback to when she was a small child training with her sisters when a ladybug flew into her hand and she observed the beauty of it before it was unceremoniously squished and killed by her mother, labeling it a distraction and "not part of Aku's order."
Ashi continued to hear these words until she sees Jack hold the ladybug in his hand and releasing it unharmed. After being saved by Jack from the belly of a colossal beast (despite her constant animosity towards him and continued attempts to kill him) and watching his humble and honorable nature to the simplest forms of life, she started to question her ways. Finally realizing that Jack was not the enemy, she dropped her weapon and reconsidered her purpose, deciding to meditate with Jack on an island from a distance, indicating that she has made peace with the Samurai. (Episode XCV)
Ashi thinks about Jack and her mother's words all day and night and even hallucinates her mother as the moon telling Ashi to kill the samurai in his slumber. She refuses as she has questions and how Jack saved her life. The hallucination of her mother tells Ashi she has failed them as she fades away. Jack then rides a sea dragon with Ashi to the mainland. Jack leaves and tells Ashi "Goodbye. Ashi follows him and wants Jack not just to tell Ashi the truth, but to show her. Jack tells Ashi, no, but seeing as she got upset, he says he will in the morning and to have patience. Ashi asks if the stars are Aku's creation and Jack tells a story of when he was little that his mother told him about the creation of the stars. The next day, Jack shows Ashi a cherry blossom tree surrounded by a wasteland of spikes. Jack tells Ashi how there used to be many of them until Aku left, but one as a reminder of his hate and oppression. Jack and Ashi then visit the city of Aku where Ashi gets to witness first hand of a violent alien criminal banished from his world being allowed to occupy a peaceful village to do what he wants with it. Jack tells Ashi how the innocent and weak are always preyed upon. Jack proceeds to show Ashi the death, carnage, and destruction of Aku until Ashi has seen enough and how she finally believes Jack. Ashi sees the error of her ways and becomes his ally, going against her mother and her cult. At the same time, she no longer saw Aku as a god but a demon to be destroyed, finally convinced after being shown solid evidence by Jack that Aku is truly evil. Shortly after, she agreed to help Jack save a group of children who are being mind-controlled by implanted chips.
While Jack distracted the children, Ashi searched for the source of the mind-controlling signal, only to be captured and brought before the sadistic Dominator. While being tortured and forced to watch as Jack was overwhelmed, Ashi was angered when the Dominator gloated about turning the children into weapons due to them being naive and vulnerable, striking a nerve and allowing her to break free of her restraints, since it reminded her too much of how she was also turned into a living weapon for no good reason. Overcoming the Dominator's electric onslaught, Ashi managed to overpower and kill her torturer, freeing the children in the process. Upon discovering that the children are alive and well, Ashi called out for Jack, but the samurai had mysteriously disappeared. (Episode XCVI)
When searching for Jack on a blimp, Ashi finds herself being targeted by two mysterious figures. When they reveal themselves to be, woolies, friends of Jack, they ask her if she is a friend to Jack as well, leaving her lost in her thought. Ashi then assures them she also wants to help Jack. After hearing the story about how Jack saved the woolies, the airship captain informs her that Jack got off at their current exit, to which she quickly hops off the blimp.
After landing in a forest, she ends up meeting the Three Blind Archers, who tell of Jack's nobleness, then later the Ravers, who dance and sing upon being reminded of Jack, causing Ashi to join in as well. Upon arriving at a cave with a waterfall, Ashi remembers how her mother forced her and her sisters to jump into a pile of burning darkness, creating a bodysuit that also allows her to store her weapons. Ashi at first walks away from the cave, but then jumps in and starts scraping the scabs off her body with rocks.
While climbing out of the cave, she realizes that she is naked, and creates a new outfit out of leaves. Later on, when she arrives at a tavern in the forest, she meets Da Samurai, who explains that he gave up his samurai life after Jack enlightened him. Back outside, Ashi meets a shadowy cat-like figure and is asked if Jack is her friend, to which Ashi assuredly says yes. The shadowy person then tells Ashi to follow the path north, after which she finds Jack in a cemetery about to commit seppuku.
Ashi tries to snap Jack into his senses, yet The Omen fights to keep her from interfering. Ashi tells Jack how hopes lives and it is everywhere, how Jack not only saved a lot of people, but also how Jack saved Ashi, showed her the truth, and how he taught Ashi there is so much more to Ashi than she knew existed and how the hope Jack gave Ashi saved her life. Eventually, Ashi is able to get to Jack when she tells him the children from the factory are still alive, allowing Jack to save her from the Horseman and defeat him. After the ghosts of the other samurai return to their graves and Jack compliments Ashi's new dress, she asks what their next move is, and Jack responds it is time to find his sword. (Episode XCVII)
After Jack tells her the story of how he lost his sword, they arrive at the site on the back of a large bird. Exploring the pit, but failing to find the sword, Ashi wonders if someone could have stolen it, to which Jack responds the sword abandoned him and not vice versa. Back outside, Ashi thanks the bird, and it nuzzles her in return.
While Jack meditates to find his sword, Ashi remains behind to protect his body. Sure enough, an entire army of Orcs arrives to kill Jack. Ashi confronts them, much to their amusement, but she actually managed to fight and kill them all. Afterward, Ashi spots another hostile near the top of the mountain and calls for the bird to take her back to high ground.
The assassin fired multiple arrows at Jack, but Ashi quickly catches one mid-air, blocking the rest with a large stone slab. Ashi is surprised that the attacker is none other than her own mother. The High Priestess criticizes Ashi's lack of focus but offers her another chance to kill Jack. Ashi refuses, explaining that Jack showed her the truth about Aku. Furious, the High Priestess attacks them both, but Ashi manages to defend Jack and herself using only a ram's horn.
The High Priestess scolds Ashi for sparing Jack and betraying their family, despite the fact the samurai killed her sisters. Ashi retorts their fates were already sealed, being raised as nothing more than living weapons. Before the High Priestess can finish Jack, Ashi recovers from the rubble she had been buried under and manages to throw one of her mother's arrows back at her, hitting her in the back and sending her falling to her death. Ashi herself falls to the ground shortly after, exhausted from the fight. Jack wakes her up upon returning from the spirit world. She compliments his new look and getting his sword back, and Jack himself remarks that Ashi has also been busy. When Ashi asks what their plan is now, Jack tells her Aku is their final target. (Episode XCVIII)
After finding Jack's sword, Ashi and Jack journey through a desert, stopping to rest at an outpost resembling a Middle-Eastern-style city. Jack offered Ashi some food from a local vendor, but she politely refused after it temporarily turned his head into a fish. On the camel barge transporting them through the desert, Ashi's affection for Jack begins to surface as they both find themselves being awkwardly hemmed in by multiple green tiger-men. When a trap is sprung, Ashi helps Jack fight their attackers, with the tension between them continuing to rise.
Ashi and Jack both agree it's time to leave and escape from the barge, continuing their journey on foot. Stopping at an oasis for water, Jack shows Ashi how to make straw hats for each other, further enhancing their relationship. Eventually, the two are caught in a sandstorm, but find shelter in a towering monolith. Investigating the facility, Ashi and Jack discover it is actually a prison ship, and Ashi is suddenly bitten on the leg by a leech-like creature.
Fortunately, Jack kills the creature and removes the poison in time. Hearing an animal-like scream in the distance, they retreat deeper into the prison before confronting their pursuer: a massive monster made of the same leeches from earlier, and barely manage to escape while fighting it off. Shortly after, the duo is directed to the ship's armory, where Jack receives a special weapon that can kill the creature, Lazarus 92.
Unfortunately, Ashi misfires a laser rifle, causing Jack to miss the part involving the weapon's activation. Ashi then dons a riot shield and sword-staff and says she is ready, with Jack reluctantly agreeing. Once they find the creature, Jack attempts to turn on the weapon but fails. Ashi realizing that Jack doesn't know how to turn it on and tries it herself. In the process, she is attacked by Lazarus-92 and her leaf dress is eaten off, leaving her completely naked. An embarrassed Jack explains private parts are personal, confusing Ashi due to her sheltered upbringing and forcing Jack to lend her his gi mid-battle.
The two are then surrounded by the leeches when Jack finally activates the weapon and is nearly killed while saying each other's names. After recovering for a moment from the weapon's discharge, Ashi and Jack finally realize their feelings for each other and embrace in a long, passionate kiss, having found true love together. (Episode XCIX)
Immediately after, Ashi and Jack quickly realize they are kissing and stop, nervous and mildly disgusted by the venom. Ashi offers Jack his gi, but he insists she keeps it until she finds new clothes, claiming the ship is drafty. Soon, they spot a hole in the ceiling leading outside. Ashi searches for something to wear while Jack heads back outside. After finding a sweater and boots in a locker room, Ashi comes across Jack showering outside and kindly leaves him his gi.
That evening, after hunting some alien worms for dinner, the two awkwardly try to make small talk. Ashi asks Jack if he ever thinks about his home, and Jack answers that he does so all the time, opening up to her with the memories of his home throughout the seasons. When Ashi asks if there was a girl in his life, Jack says "yes, many" which upsets Ashi, then he quickly asks Ashi if she means "A girl", as Ashi nods in agreement. Jack explains how there wasn't time, since he was only 8 when the seal his father placed on Aku was broken and he attacked his village. While Jack admits the time before Aku's return was nice, the memories of his home are the only way he will see it again.
The next morning, a distraught Ashi wakes up to find that Jack has left her again. She later finds him in a robot graveyard, demanding to know why he left. Jack explains that, in addition to witnessing the suffering of many innocent people, Aku has taken everything from him, everything Jack has ever loved, leaving him with nothing but memories, and doesn't Jack want the same to happen to Ashi. Instead, Ashi assures him they will defeat Aku together and how everything in their lives has brought them here, together, and how together, they will defeat Aku. Sure enough, Aku reveals himself, accompanied by Scaramouche. Aku claims he is aware that Jack lost his sword, having learned the information from Scaramouche. When Jack reveals the opposite, Aku telekinetically destroys Scaramouche's head in frustration. He casually prepares to leave as Jack attacks him, but smells something familiar nearby: himself.
Ashi arms herself with a sword as Aku approaches her, warning him to stay back. Smelling part of himself inside her, Aku remembers the time when he personally paid a visit to the members of the Cult of Aku, providing them with some of his essence. He then deduces that the High Priestess drank his essence shortly after and gave birth to the Daughters of Aku, revealing to a shocked Ashi that she is Aku's biological daughter. When Jack attacks him once again, Aku simply uses his essence inside Ashi to control her body like a puppet, forcing her to fight against Jack.
Jack pleads with her to resist, assuring her she is nothing like her parents, but she is unable to do so. Unhappy with this, Aku throws a giant robot onto them and tells Ashi she needs to "bring out her best" (i.e., himself), corrupting her with an upgraded version of her old outfit. Despite this, Jack manages to break Ashi's sword and cut her arm, briefly getting through to her. Ashi begs Jack to kill her and destroy Aku, but he can't bring himself to do so and stands down. Before Ashi can finish Jack, Aku orders his daughter to stop, joyfully claiming the Samurai's sword as Jack accepts defeat. (Episode C)
As Aku prepares to kill Jack on worldwide television, Jack once more tries to get through to Ashi, though he appears to be unsuccessful. After a period of indecision, Aku decides it's best for Ashi to do the deed. As Ashi prepares to kill Jack, all of the samurai's allies arrive and fight Aku and his forces in a grand-scale battle, while Jack confronts the corrupted Ashi. Jack tries to get his sword, but Ashi does everything she can to prevent it. The Scotsman's ghost then appears to Jack offering all 28 of his daughters to Jack, Jack then says he met someone as the Scotsman asks who, then he points to Ashi's monstrous form attacking the Scotsman's daughters. The Scotsman says to Jack how he doesn't think she is his type. Ashi then absorbs Jack and Jack finds her struggling to fight Aku's essence. Eventually, Jack frees Ashi of Aku's control after confessing his love for her. Disowning her father and dueling him evenly with his own powers, Ashi grabs Jack's sword and warps Jack and herself back to the past, to the moment after Aku sent him to the future. In the time portal, before Jack and Ashi make it back to the past, they smile and hold hands. Back in the past, Jack then proceeds to destroy Aku once and for all, thus preventing the rise of the demon and sparing both the universe and the future from his tyranny. After Aku's defeat, Jack and Ashi escape Aku's tower as it explodes. Ashi nearly faints and says how she felt Aku leave her. Jack tells Ashi how Aku will never hurt anyone ever again as they hug under the sunset.
Unfortunately, since Ashi was Aku's daughter, the destruction of the past Aku would cause her to pass a few years later. She vanished in Jack's arms during their wedding, leaving only her empty shiromuku, much to Jack's grief. (Episode CI)
However, in Samurai Jack: Battle Through Time, Ashi doesn't fade away from existence during the wedding and watches the scenery with Jack in the secret ending as Jack's wife. The very same cherry blossom tree Jack showed Ashi in Episode XCVI, now surrounded by hundreds of them instead of a barren wasteland.
**Samurai Jack: Battle Through Time**
The game starts after Jack frees Ashi of Aku's control after confessing his love for her. Disowning her father and dueling him evenly with his own powers, Ashi grabs Jack's sword and warps Jack and herself back to the past. In the time portal, before Jack and Ashi make it back to the past, Aku, in a last-ditch effort to stop his demise, creates a time pocket, which is a rift of time and space that is not affected by the main timeline and under the demon's complete control for Jack as a final series of trials to go through. Ashi occasionally appears out of a time portal to give Jack some advice and tries to reach out to Jack. At one point Jack almost reaches Ashi, but Aku pulls Jack away from her. Like in the show, the main purpose of Ashi in this game is to give Jack hope to keep going. Jack then encounters an alternate version of Ashi at the temple that is still brainwashed to kill Jack and Jack reaches his hand out to her. Jack gives Ashi the choice to live and repeats his father's words to her how the decisions you make and the actions that follow are a reflection of who you are and how you cannot hide from yourself. Ashi then tells Jack she will spill Jack's blood in the name of Aku. Ashi then jumps on the rooftop of the building as two other Daughters Of Aku fight Jack.
Inside the temple, the real Ashi appears out of a time portal to tell Jack to try and save her sisters from death this time around. Jack tries to give one of the sisters a chance to live, but she still fights to the death. In the snowy forest, Jack gives the rest of Ashi's sisters a second chance to live their own destiny, one without Aku. In the end, they still chose to fight to the death. Ashi as well as the other Daughters Of Aku serve as a boss fight in this game. After the battle, Ashi is still the last one standing and is brainwashed to kill Jack. Jack is still able to reach out to Ashi by mentioning how she is not this person, and how he knows the real her, even mentioning her name. Ashi is confused to how Jack knows her name, Jack then says how he knows Ashi has a pure and kind heart, Ashi replies how she will kill Jack, and then Jack asks Ashi if she remembers the ladybug.
Ashi then drops her kusarigama after Jack manages to get through to her. Aku then appears behind her and pushes Ashi on Jack's sword, which impales and kills her. Jack is bothered by not being able to save Ashi's sisters or Ashi herself as he talks to her inner self. Jack's inner self tells Jack that that power over others is weakness disguised as strength, how this place is merely a shadow of things that came before. Jack's inner self convinces Jack to not let Aku break his spirit if Jack is ever to find the way forward. In the spaceship of Lazarus 92, Aku reanimates the corpse Ashi (which is slightly decomposed) asking why Jack killed her like she did her sisters and how she thought Jack loved her. Jack tries to explain that he did not mean to do it. Aku then appears behind Ashi's corpse and both Ashi and Aku's voice sync to say "But you did". Aku then possesses her body and becomes Ashi's corrupted form. A portal warps Jack and corrupted Ashi to the robot graveyard in the desert for a boss fight. After the battle, Jack can't bring himself to kill Ashi and stands down. Before the corrupted Ashi can finish off Jack, the real Ashi appears out of a portal and vaporizes the corrupted Ashi with her laser eye beams. Ashi then tells Jack to go through the final portal and how he is so close and has to keep going.
After Aku's defeat, Ashi then appears out of a time portal reaching her hand out for Jack and Jack grabs her hand and jumps through the portal with Ashi. Jack is relieved how his journey is finally over and tells Ashi "Even across time, I will find my way back to you" as they then proceed to smile and hold hands. Back in the past, Jack then proceeds to destroy Aku once and for all, thus preventing the rise of the demon and sparing both the universe and the future from his tyranny. After Aku's defeat, Jack and Ashi escape Aku's tower as it explodes. Ashi nearly faints and says how she felt Aku leave her. Jack tells Ashi how Aku will never hurt anyone ever again as they hug under the sunset. If the player destroys all 50 Corrupted Emperor's Kamon medals, they will be met with a secret ending that plays out like the normal ending of the series finale, except Ashi doesn't fade away from existence at the wedding and is with Jack at the final scene under the cherry blossom tree as Jack's wife.

## Notable Techniques

* **Enhanced Agility:** Ashi's training throughout her entire life has honed her skills as being very fast and has amazing jumping and parkour skills which can arguably be seen as on par with, or even better than Jack's.

* **Enhanced Endurance:** Ashi has been beaten endlessly throughout her training, hardening her as a warrior. She and her sister also durable enough to endure harsh weather conditions since they can fight Jack without the elements hindering their combat capabilities despite being unclothed all the time.

* **Enhanced Stamina:** In order to protect Jack, Ashi fought and defeated an entire army and her own mother before finally collapsing from exhaustion.

* **Enhanced Speed:** Ashi is shown to be very swift. She is capable of dodging arrows while climbing a cliff and grabbing one of the fired arrows out of thin air. She and her sisters are capable of dodging machine gunfire.

* **Enhanced Strength:** She and her sisters have deceptive raw strength for their lean frame. They are able to destroy Jack's armor merely through punches. They are also able to easily smash through stone and concrete. She was strong enough to lift a large man in a metal suit and throw him through the glass. During her battle against the army that comes to kill Jack, she is shown to be strong enough to push hundreds of soldier larger than her off the mountain cliff without difficulty, as well as breaking their spears, armor, shields or pulling the arm of a muscular man out of its socket with her bare hands. Afterward, she picks up a large stone slab to protect Jack and herself from a hail of arrows, lifting it above her head before destroying it.

* **Enhanced Senses:** Ashi and her sisters were trained to be able to react to dangers, such as archer fire, by instinct. Her reflexes, endurance, stamina, and agility are drastically enhanced to superhuman levels.

* **Corrupted form:** During her unwilling fight against Jack in Episode C, Aku corrupts her into his likeness with several supernatural powers. It is shown that she inherits almost all of Aku's powers.

* **Superhuman Strength:** The suit increases her physical strength, making her strong enough to penetrate metallic objects with a sword and shatter the ground with one kick.

* **Elasticity:** In her corrupted form, Ashi can stretch and expand her limbs in any direction. Her limbs can also act like a whip that can easily rip through metal.

* **Pyrokinesis/Infusion:** Her bodysuit has flaming eyebrows similar to her father. She can also infuse weaponry, such as a sword, with fire.

* **360-Degree Neck Rotation:** She can rotate her head without snapping her neck.

* **Shapeshifting Arms/Weapon Creation:** She can turn her forearms into blades.

* **Eye Beams:** She can fire energy beams from her eyes.

* **Time Portal Creation:** Much like her father, Ashi has the ability to create time portals using her vocal cords. Ashi used this ability to send herself and Jack back in time to defeat Aku once and for all.

* **Master Assassin:** Ashi and her sisters were trained to be powerful and ultimate master assassins.

* **Skilled Archer: Ashi has shown to have excellent skills in archery. She is capable of taking down multiple opponents with the bow while climbing.**

* **Expert Combatant:** Ashi was highly trained in unarmed combat techniques. She and her sisters have become more skilled at close-quarter combat than even their trainers. She was also able to defeat multiple tiger assassins with ease.

* **Intelligence:** Through her training, Ashi developed a talent for strategy. During the final test, she incapacitated the Cult archers at the top of the cliff face, swinging the fight in her and her sisters' favor.

* **Indomitable Willpower:** Ashi seems to possess a strong will to correct her mistakes and help her persevere through hardships. This made her into a powerful and cold assassin. As described by her mother towards her and her sisters, "Aku's fire stirs through all of you."

* **Pain Resistance:** She is strong enough to resist the 10,000 volts of electrical torture from the Dominator, which would normally kill a regular human. She survived a high fall that was damaging enough to leave her bleeding without any apparent pain. She also survived being thrown into hot coals as a child.

* **Tailoring Skill:** After cleansing herself of the darkness from her skin, Ashi tailors her new clothing from local flora, literally leaving her past in the dust.

* **Animal Taming:** She may, to some extent, be good at taming animals. In Episode XCVIII, the large bird she and Jack rode took a particular liking to her and even came back to help her when she called for it. It is very likely Jack taught her this skill.

* **Weapon proficiency:** Ashi is shown to be proficient with most weapons she comes across. Initially wielding a kusarigama (sickle and chain), she later demonstrates skill with a sword staff and shield in Episode XCIX. She is also good at improvising, using a ram's horn as a makeshift dagger in XCVIII, then later throwing shards of glass as makeshift shuriken in XCIX. Unlike Jack, however, Ashi has little to no experience with firearms, shown when she accidentally misfired a laser rifle in the prison ship's armory.

## Other

**Standard Tactics:** After learning that she has Aku's powers, she used energy beams and turning her arms into weapons against him | Uses a mix of fire attacks, energy beams, and sword attacks

**Weaknesses:** Ashi was lied to for most of her life and tortured | Cannot control herself
