Weaknesses

• Color Scheme: Despite the fact that Aku could shapeshift into anything he desired, he was unable to mimic the color of the person he changed into. In other words, if he took on the shape of a caterpillar; anyone could see through his disguise, since he would still have possessed all of the original colors from his Humanoid appearance.

• His Reflection: Even if someone wasn't able to recognize Aku while he was in disguise, if he went near a mirror, his own reflection would reveal his true form.

• Illnesses: Despite being a nearly all-powerful demon, he was apparently just as susceptible to catching a cold or other sicknesses as any Human was.

• Unable to Travel Time: His chronokinetic abilities were only able to open up time portals to send other people through. He himself however, was unable to conjure up a time portal that he himself could move through.

• His Own Power: At times, his own super powers could be used against him, which could lead to his downfall.

• Samurai Jack's Sword: Aku was able to be harmed by Samurai Jack's sword, which was a katana that was forged by Odin, Ra and Rama.
