In what was a children's show? They didn't abuse it.
one of the funnier scenes in the first season is when jack encounters the scotsman on the bridge for the first timebefore they start fighting, the scotsman shouts this ridiculously long-winded insult filled with colorful scotch vernacularwhat makes the insult so impressive is that he goes on for, like, 20 seconds without even saying so much as a single curse word, even though you'd totally expect him to, given his nature--yet they cleverly avert it, and it was respectablewith this new episode, that's ruined now--and that kinda sucksi knew this would happen though, so i'm glad i was right
And the Scotsman still doesn't swearI think the Scotsman's colorful insults are part of his character, but Da Samurai was one of those original episodes where the only reason he never referred to himself as a "badass" was because of the kid's show label.It isn't a kid's show anymore.
and therein lies the issue: it should've always remained a kid's show
I dunno, the Scaramouche joke took me off guard way more than Da Samurai cursing. A few of the instances seemed a bit unnecessary, though.
just stop watching it lolobv isnt for you

To compare two consenting adults having a relationship to the horrors of actual rape is pretty fucked upplaying the "that's not actual rape" game is much more fucked up than being critical of creepy relationships between old men and their young female subordinates. this isnt a matter of a couple decades. he's around 75 years old. she's like, what, 18? cant be much older than her early 20s. this is just ridiculous.
if you don't give 18 year olds complete autonomy over their own bodies then you're overstepping your domain
