So I have a bit of a strange ask, concerning Aku/Ikra from “Jack and the Warrior woman”. There was this one scene where Jack and Ikra were watching some dancers perform. This particular scene has been bugging me for quite a while. And I’m curious to know wether you might have been able to make sense of it?
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
when the second (and male) dancer comes in, Ikra appears to feel sort of uncomfortable. So far I haven’t been able to find a reason behind this reaction. I could be missing something obvious. Or just be digging too far into it lol.
What do you think?
I've answered this a few times on my blog if you just search "Ikra" but these images needed to be made so aaaaw shit here we go again,
Basically this scene is supposed to be another "hint" that Ikra is actually Aku, by implying that Aku, as a predominantly male being, is attracted to girls.
In fact the entire episode is 10x better if you watch it picturing Aku as the one doing everything because he sometimes can't help letting his true personality through. Like his reaction to the desert shrew for example.
So what is actually happening here?
Tumblr media
Aku is sooo pleased to see a cute girl dancing, like the other men
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Then the bear dancer enters and Aku is so disappointed AND realizes he is about to have to hide his boner to keep up appearances
Tumblr media
Sheepishly looking towards Jack with an "Aw you REALLY shouldn't have" expression while internally kicking himself because they're just trying to be nice and inclusive but DAMN IT AKU DESIRES TO GAZE UPON THE FEMALE DANCER FML
Tumblr media
Aku then averts his eyes because while Jack can accept that this is just a part of another culture and being a little bi comes with the territory of being a samurai, Aku can not stand to see such a strong warrior male prancing about like a dainty girl. Aku would really like the girl to come back, but he does not want to risk blowing his cover and squandering months of troll prep over one little dance routine. So he allows the others to think "Ikra" is fine with this development and takes a sip of wine to make himself care less
Tumblr media
But actually this is not fucking fine, Aku thinks this is the most cringe thing he's ever seen and can't believe he has to deal with this shit right now, it's his own fault, why do humans have to be so nice, this sucks, etc.
Also after over 20 years I just realized Ikra/Aku is eating nothing but a PINEAPPLE of all things, the most suspicious thing I have ever seen, how did they get away with it, this is going to be my new favorite Aku meme. IF YOU KNOW, YOU KNOW

Silver the crow! She’s a spirit reincarnated back into the physical world.
Update: changing my account name from “SilverFlower72” to “SilverCrow72”.
Bonus: Aku from “Aku & the crows” meets Silver.

I’ve been wondering… what’s your take on Aku and physical needs?
For instance: do you think Aku just chooses to sleep, eat, and/or drink whenever he feels like it? Or does he actually depend on those kind of things in some way to power himself up?
I have my own headcanons, but I’d like to hear your personal opinion. What do you think he uses to fuel those awesome powers of his?
Professor droning on in @cnwol sort of touches on this.
Aku is like a black hole optimized to take in immense amounts of energy from any and every possible source. His pitch black body absorbs sunlight, his face is green with chlorophyll. He can shapeshift to take in air and water for the oxygen, but he can also process carbon dioxide like a tree. He has supernatural fuel from absorbing things like magic, energy, life force, and emotions– including his own emotions, one of his most powerful fuel sources of all.
Sleeping, breathing, and eating are entirely optional for Aku, but they are also used for energy like everything else if they're done. When Aku is depressed from hiding in his tower for 50 years, he has to resort to sleeping more often, but he also sleeps if he's bored. Even back in "Jack and the Warrior Woman" he was admitting that at some point he slept. I did an entire post about the sleep habits here
To maintain equilibrium this constant inflow of energy has to be used. Aku prefers to take a giant form because it's intimidating but also because it takes a lot of energy to maintain, so it's a very stable form for him to take. Shapeshifting also takes a lot of energy.
Tumblr media
In a smaller form the energy is highly concentrated, at which point Aku needs to use more complex abilities like superpowers to burn off that energy. 
Tumblr media
We know for a fact that he can be completely expended, that's why he sent Jack into the future. The entire plot of WOL hinges on that same scenario of Aku wearing himself out because he wasn't angry enough to keep going. [And a few other reasons not revealed yet]
