User blog comment:Kronika X Cetrion/Pure Good Proposal: Samurai Jack/@comment-39032584-20191017143446

As a personal fan of Samurai Jack, yes, I believe he qualifies. He also uses violence as necessary to combat evil, and even then, it's mostly towards machines and monsters rather than people. It's in a similar vein to how Link from The Legend of Zelda frequently uses violence, but only as a frequent necessity, rather than because he enjoys it. If there's any real issue, it's that in an episode called The Aku Infection, as the title suggests, he got infected with Aku's evil when Aku caught a cold and started becoming corrupt, to the point he even cut down a robotic civilian he bumped into for not apologizing to him. However, I'm not sure even that can be truly held against him since it was forcefully taking over him against his will, to the point he was clearly at odds with himself, and he actively seeked help from the monks to get rid of it.

That aside, he pretty much always puts others before himself, even when it's a distraction from his quest to get back to the past and stop Aku. In fact, he often ends up using the aforementioned violence as a means of either protecting these people or freeing them from Aku's oppression. It certainly helps that he's also very humble about it all. Most tellingly though, when Aku tried using his own sword against him once, it wouldn't work because it can harm someone who's pure of heart. I think that ultimately, that definitely overrules the incident where he was infected with Aku's evil, especially since, again, it was completely involuntary, he was blatantly losing control of himself, and there was nothing he could do to stop/get rid of it until he went to the monks.

P.S. Remember not to copy and paste from the personality section of the character's page Kronika. Even if the information is sufficient, you should always at least try to use your own words, and only borrow a little from the wording on the page at most. That was one of the new rules.
