Samurai Jack Wiki

Badaquians were the dominant species of the Planet Badaquas for many years. They are aquatic based, requiring water to survive.

History

They were only seen as a small group of refugees in Episode II: The Samurai Called Jack, as the leader was requesting Aku for immigration to earth, as their home world had been drained of its water. The Shogun of Sorrow proceeds to reveal that it was he himself that had stripped the planet of its water for his own world's purposes. A young Badaquian steps up and expresses his anger to Aku, only to be sent to The Pit of Hate to learn respect.

The species currently inhabits the oceans of Earth, on the condition of constructing statues of Aku once each month and raising them to the surface.

After Aku's destruction in the past, all the atrocities Aku has done to their planet were undone. So, they presumably live there in harmony, free from Aku's evil.
