ITT: Char Creation Questions
I want to make a Samurai Jack character in DnD5e. Would he be better suited as a warrior or a monk class?

A monk that can treat anything as a monk weapon.

Kensei monk

Make sure he can jump good.

^^

Funny you should ask.
I've always entertained the possibility of him being a paladin.

Yea, his personality is completely Paladin.

but his skillset isn't. He doesn't really have any magic abilities, just incredible strength and speed. Which I guess is great for a monk, but then again he wields a sword, so maybe a warrior is a viable option as well.

Actually scratch that, Jack is definitely a monk, unarmored with a short sword.

Multiclassing?
Honestly, 5e is a bit too limited for this.
