For reaching the 700,000 pageviews we have Cartoon Network Samurai Jack where
the Daughters of Aku having being sent out to kill Jack and we
defeated. If this was still on the Cartoon Network, before being moved
to Toonami, where adult themes could be done. They would die in some
way off screen or Jack would strip them of black jumpsuits which was
made of Aku somehow. Now the seven daughters of Aku have been sent back
to the High Priestess of the Cult of Aku, where she will NOT be sparing
the rod for their failure of Aku.
The Daughters of Aku were one of the highlights of the last season of Samurai Jack, when Jack sees that he killed a human being not a robot. It made caused him were only trained to have a crisis of faith, talking to a version of himself. His conscience would berate him for failing to defeat Aku, the isolated training of the daughters. Jack was trained by Chinese monks, African tribesmen, Vikings, and a Robin Hood figure. The daughters were trained to be fighters without learning anything of the world. One wonders what would have happen to the daughters if they succeeded in killing Jack.
The High Priestess (real name unknown) was the birth mother of the Daughters of Aku, as well as the leader of the all-female Cult of Aku. She served as the secondary antagonist of Season 5. She was killed by Ashi, one of her daughters after she was impaled by an arrow thrown by Ashi and fell off a cliff. The Priestess had the personality of a typical, psychotic, fanatical cult leader, believing that the service of her master was the most important thing in the world. At some point, she acquired a magical "darkness" from the Pit of Hate and pushed all her daughters into it so that they may become one with the darkness of Aku to receive supernatural abilities.
The Priestess is rather mysterious, as it is currently unknown how she came to be so devoted to Aku, her past and the reasons her worldview is so distorted. It was later revealed that she drank from a ceremonial goblet that contained a portion of Aku's essence when he once appeared to the cult, allowing her to conceive septuplets of human-demon hybrid. She was single-minded in her devotion, lacked any semblance of sympathy, seemed to be aristocratic, and possesses great self control. Immediately after giving birth, she is helped into her mask and robe and proceeds like nothing happened. Whereas most women would be too sick and exhausted to even sit up, she is capable of walking around and giving orders. She did not have any regard for life, as demonstrated by not caring about the deaths of any of her daughters or the other cult members. She crushed a ladybug in front of Ashi in order to demonstrate her view that life didn't matter.
She repeatedly told her daughters that all that is good came from Aku, and that Jack was the reason that the world has problems.
The Priestess was more unfeeling than cruel. Her actions always had a purpose, and were never done for any sort of sadistic enjoyment. She didn't appear to love her daughters, or bond to the other cultists. The only feelings she had exhibited are those of love for Aku and hatred of Jack. However, she tried to psychologically manipulate Ashi by reminding her of her dead sisters, and is willing to pardon Ashi if she kills Jack while he is meditating and hands over her dagger, even though her past actions strongly suggest that she does not care for them, a sign of her manipulative personality. Moreover, she had no problem with killing her own daughter when Ashi betrays her cause. Her obsession with killing Jack proves to be her ultimate downfall, as she let her guard down long enough for Ashi to impale her with her own arrow to prevent her from killing Jack.
The Daughters of Aku were a group of seven human-demon hybrid women who were born and raised by their mother, the High Priestess, for the sole purpose of killing Samurai Jack. They are from a cult of the same name dedicated to Aku and appear during the events of Season 5. As of Episode XCV, only Ashi was confirmed to be alive. It was confirmed in Episode XCVIII that all the Daughters, minus Ashi, did indeed perish by Jack according to the High Priestess. In Episode C, it was revealed that they were indeed the daughters of Aku with their mother having taken the essence of Aku and birthing them as a result.
After Jack and Ashi time-traveled into the past shortly after Aku originally hurtled Jac k into the future, Jack finally triumphed in destroying Aku. With his demise in the past, Ashi (and presumably the rest of her sisters) are rendered non-existent and thus were never born.
The seven daughters were birthed by The High Priestess of an all-female cult of Aku sometime after she consumed Aku's essence. After birth, the priestess had them raised as assassins to succeed where many others have failed in the mission of killing Jack. They were put through the most brutal of training, designed to sculpt them into the ultimate ninja warriors, such as facing a hulking, muscle bound opponent when they were mere children. Even more, they have been utterly taught to think that Aku is the true savior of the planet and Jack seeks to destroy all that Aku has "created". When their training was complete, they donned their masks and head coverings and set out to fulfill their mission.
They eventually found Jack and proceed to lay a trap after he deals with a large Beetle Drone. They manage to destroy or steal most of his equipment and armor but the Samurai is able to escape their grasp briefly using explosives and flee towards an abandoned temple. After a long search the sisters manage to locate him and engage in a running battle with him throughout the temple. Eventually one of the Sisters manages to corner and wound Jack, but at the cost of her life, a fact that leaves Jack horrified as he realizes he has been fighting a living human being instead of another machine as he had initially thought them to be. After snapping out of it, Jack then manages to escape them again by recovering the tuning fork blade he took from the assassin Scaramouch from the now dead sister who stole it and used it to seal the temple hallway behind him as he jumped into the river below.
While Jack recovered from his wounds, the Daughters broke out of the ruined temple and continued the hunt for Jack, leaving the corpse of their dead sister behind. Following the river to the forest, the sisters spent a moment observing a female deer in the woods, mistaking her mate for one of Aku's minions due to its antlers. After one of the Daughters scared the deer off and it began to snow, Jack revealed his presence to them. He offered them an ultimatum: Leave, or face their destiny. When the Daughters refused and rejected his words of wisdom, Jack emerged from his hiding place in the snow and impaled one of them with a wooden spear. Jack then proceeded to dispatch the rest of the daughters until only Ashi remained, hanging from a fallen tree over a valley. Ignoring her threats about Aku, Jack simply unwrapped her kusarigama from his arm, sending her to her presumed death. Unfortunately, the tree finally collapsed from the fight and Jack followed her into the valley below. The daughters of Aku were erased from the timeline since Ashi and Jack altered the future with the defeat of Aku in the past.
