Are the Foot-Bots kind of pointless?

[Gunpowder]

I've found the Foot Clan in general to be relatively useless in this iteration - humans and 'bots alike. From what I recall, they were never properly introduced in this series...and they didn't get any real recognition until Follow the Leader (season 2) - so they at least got one episode. And there was a pretty neat fight scene with them in Never Say Xever. But other than that, I think they've always felt a little unnecessary. I just wish they would at least explain their origin a little bit, or where the human Foot were coming from.

I still think they're cool, though; I like having them around.

Yeah. I kinda preferred them as humans, too.

Regardless of how I feel about human vs robot Foot, if it's an excuse to have loads of guilt free ninja violence I'm all for it. A lesson I learned from Samurai Jack.
