I cant remember how Akus invunrabilaty works but those elimental titans were able to pwne him so he's vunrable to more than Jacks sword. I say Sakura has a shot.

Aku's invulnerability-
Aku has shown to be hurt by those elementals, but they were stated as being ancient guardians and such. Still, Sakura become the clou card master, so her cards could do it also. However, that is just damage and not death. Basically, until Samurai Jack continues, and as of now, Aku can only be killed by Jack's sword. Jack sword was forged by three gods and has the power of all the human spirit/goodness. So while Sakura is a veritable God in her verse at the end, and while she has some broken cards like time and erase, Aku is pretty broken himself and I don't her level of power is above that of three Gods. In short, she shouldn't be able to kill Aku, and I doubt even the erase card would work because it's power shouldn't be above the three gods of jack verse.

Those 3 Gods took on somthing that Aku was just a small part of so anyone of them could pimpslap him wich would mean Jacks sword only has a small fraction of there power. Couldnt Sakura just use creat to creat somthing that can somon those Gods.

I was always under the impresion that Aku was just a small part of that big black blob that Odin and the other God fought.
That's right. Although Aku also seems to be an evolved form of that blob, because the original evil was not shown to be sentinent and instead was just like some kind of figurative "all-evil" destroying worlds and floating about in space.
-After the Gods had more or less beat the original manifestation, the black blob, a small piece fell to earth and escaped. That small piece slowly began to spread and consume the earth and caused towers and such to rise. One day Jack's father and his men went to confront this threat. Ironically then, it was a poision arrow that gave life to Aku. From this I toke it to mean Aku was evolved, in a sense, beyond what he originally was and perhaps became stronger then what just a piece of the original manifestation should be.
In any case, I get what you're saying. Still, I think because the three Gods forged the sword specifically as a means to defeat Aku - despite it being only a piece of the original evil however changed- kind of shows that just that piece was still pretty indestructible... at least durability wise. So while Aku might just be a fractured piece of the original, the Gods still saw fit to imbue an item with thier power, specifically for the purpose of killing Aku. Other then Jack sword, only the elementals have shown to hurt Aku. Yet, they were never said to kill him. Rather, and more often then not, it is only said to be Jack sword which can strike the final blow. Hence my reasoning Erase might not to the trick, and why it's power base would need to be above the Samurai Jack verse Gods. I mean, I doubt Sakura, despite being superior to Cloud Reed and the strongest sorceror ever in her verse, would be on a level where she can just erase Aku. Hurt him, yeah, but not erase.

The Elemental Titans hurt Aku yes but there was never any indication that Aku's life was in danger. He was shown being hurt...but his blackness wasn't crumbling like it does when he's cut by Jack's sword.
Aku does feel pain, believe it or not and doesn't like it like....
Aku also happens to get more h4x each time he appears....

Even though she cant kill him she might be able to drive him away.
