Does anyone realize that Jack also widowed the poor nice ogre lady by killing her husband because he was pissed that some little ass was stealing his shit? What a great ending the boy and his mother are happy by the ogre people are now poor and husbandless.

Dude! All humor aside, that ending is kind of fucked up. I don't think that's how Jack originally ended right?

@Ventilaator: 
@Kajaah117:  
Actually, this is the original story. Except the ogre dies in the original. It's actually pretty interesting. In most fairy tales the male protagonist marries or goes off on his own, whereas in this one Jack returns to his mother. In one version, the more "moral" version, Jack is told that the ogre killed his father, so it's an act of retribution.
But yeah, it's a pretty mean story.

I think there was a Quick Look of Shin Megami Tensei: Devil Summoner 2 - Raidou Kuzunoha vs. King Abaddon that lasted for 50+ minutes? Something like that.
 
Eitherway this was a fun quick look and I actually sit here craving for them to complete the 3 other stories.
And who knows, maybe they'll unlock THE SECRET 5TH STORY!

I swear they got the most memorable line wrong?
 
'Fee-Fi-Fo-Fum, I smell the blood of an Englishman, be he alive or be he dead, I'll grind his bones to make my bread?'
 
Wait, I just realised that doesn't sound right.

I've just realised that there's a bit of disconnect between the way the dude's reading Jack and the BS and the actual content. Would peasants such as Jack and his mother be speaking with such posh accents? Apart from that, this is a 5 star product.
