Ninjago Badly explained by Me

Season 2

First off, names for those who didn't understand them from my first post

Wu- Gandalf

Cole- Coal

Jay- Bluejay

Kai- Spiky

Zane- Freezy

Nya- Meow

Lloyd- Trauma Child

Garmadon- the devil

Porple snek- Pythor P. Chumsworth

Now adding,

Dareth- Brownie

Misako- Satan's Wife

Overlord- Purple Blob

Cyrus Borg- Cyborg

P.I.X.A.L.- Pixie Dust

Season 2: "The Ninja" work minimum wage while the devil teams up with the sneks and Gandalf and Meow fuck off... somewhere? Idk, then the devil repetitively tries to take down "The Ninja" through dumb methods like creating evil doubles and reviving ancient predators. "The Ninja" kicks Brownie's ass and starts training in his dojo. Trauma Child magically ages up with tea. The devil gets betrayed by the sneks, and finds an evil shadow blob, who we'll call Purple Blob, that gets the devil to unlock a new level of Ninjago's map.

The devil gets possessed by Purple Blob, and Trauma Child turns gold and learns god's fighting style. Trauma Child laser beams the evil and Purple Blob out of the devil, who becomes an old DILF we'll call Trauma Father.

Ninjago Father Rank List cuz Happy Father’s Day :>

Btw I’m doing this in alphabetical order: Chen, Cliff Gordon, Cole, Cyrus Borg, Dr. Julien, Ed, Emperor of Ninjago, Garmadon PreS2, PostS2, and PostS8, Lou, Nelson’s Dad, Ray, Skales, and Wu

1)The Cs: Chen, Cyrus Borg, Cole, and Cliff Gordon

Chen: 4/10, he’s great as a character but not so much as a father, he used Skylor as a weapon and once she was no use to him he just left her on an island without a second thought, we at least know he didn’t starve or abuse her cuz she seems to be in good health when we see her and owns a popular brand of restaurant plus he doesn’t seem like the person to do that either so he gets a few points for that

Cyrus Borg: 9/10, he’s a great father from what I remember/have seen, he lets his daughter Pixal do what she wants cuz he knows that she’s capable of defending herself and treats her as a daughter instead of just an assistant or as a thing that doesn’t have emotions, my only real nit pick here is that he doesn’t create her a new body after S4, if he knew she was alive I think he would want to make her a new body, and when we see him in S5 he doesn’t seem to be affected by the lost of his child, this would only make sense of the ninja told him that she’s in Zane’s head but then why didn’t he create her a new body? Other then that little nit pick though he’s a great father and I love his character :>

Cole: 10/10, he’s Dad Cole, what do you expect? Seriously though Cole seems like he would be a great father from what we see in S8 and S9, like the scene where Lloyd tosses Baby Wu to the ninja on the Bounty in S8 and Cole just instinctively f—king jumps off the Bounty to save Wu, he didn’t know that Jay was going to catch him so he basically was gonna sacrifice his life to make sure Baby Wu was safe, same thing with the Bounty falling from the sky into the jungle in the same season, he just ran over to Baby Wu and held him to make sure he was safe while the ship was falling from the sky, I love him :D!

Cliff Gordon: ?/10, I can’t really judge Cliff cuz we don’t know his reason for him giving Jay up for adoption or if he even knew about Jay or that he was his child in the first place

2) Dr. Julien

8/10, He obviously cares a lot about Zane based on what he does in S2 aka the only season he is in alive, though he does just leave Echo alone in the light house even when Zane says in the same episode he finds Dr. Julien “No body deserves to be in captivity, even monsters” or something similar, I couldn’t find the original quote on Google, but other then that he seems like a really really nice, good guy and good father

3)Ed and Emperor of Ninjago

Ed: 10/10 He’s one of the only parents in this this show that isn’t dead/disappears and he makes up for all the bad/absent parents in this show cuz even though he is adopted Jay’s adopted father he is one of, if not the, best parent in this show cuz he obviously cares so much for Edna and Jay and idk how to explain how much he is just such a great dad character he’s mostly jokes and caring goofy dad but he can be serious when the situation requires it shown in S6, he’s just amazing :3

Emperor of Ninjago: idc/10, I don’t really care about him much tbh, I don’t think he’s a bad character I just never really got attracted or invested in him :/

Garmadon PreS2, PostS2, and PostS8

PreS2 Garmadon: 10/10, Even if he had evil running through his veins he wouldn’t dare hurt his son and threw a Snek for even suggesting the idea

PostS2 Garmadon: 11/10, Same as PreS2 Garmadon but not evil, he’s just amazing in general, I’m sure there are entire posts on why Garmadon is an amazing character and parent so I’ll just move on

PostS8 Garmadon: 0/10, he nearly beat up his kid to death and said “I have no son” before yeeting him through several stone walls, he’s an amazing character but not the best father :’/

4) Lou, Nelson’s Dad, Ray, Skales, and Wu

Lou: 7/10 Lou cares for Cole and when Cole tells him about being a ninja he denies it not cuz he thinks it’s wrong to be a ninja, he does it cuz he doesn’t believe stealing part of his plan in any sense is good, once Cole gets the trophy without stealing it but with dancing Lou fully supports Cole being a ninja and saying he’s proud of him, he didn’t mean to be a strict/detached father to Cole after his mother’s death, it’s just the way he grieved with it, so even if he wasn’t the best father he is nowhere near the worst

Nelson’s Dad: 😈🔪/10, Went to a pizzeria to get some milk, wonder when he’s gonna come back :/

Ray: ?/10, I don’t think I can give my opinion on Ray since he was taken away from his kids when they were very young and we haven’t seen anyway fatherly scenes with him and his kids before they were kidnapped so yeah, there’s that

Skales: 🐍?/10 I love Skales as a character but same thing as Ray here too :’/

Wu: 5/10 Last time Wu tried to be a parent for a child he ended up getting self worth issues, running away, dieing trying to prove himself to be strong, and eventually becoming a evil ghost that proceeded to release the Preeminent which destroyed the city of Stixx, though I’m putting him here cuz it wasn’t intentional, unlike Chen with Skylor, and he clearly regrets what he did and wanted to help Morro recover from what happened, the only reason he didn’t was cuz Morro didn’t think he was worthy of redemption and let go of his hand

The end, have an amazing Father’s Day!!!

Serpentine Head Cannons

Okay, so...I’ve been rewatching the whole series with my BF and Roommates, and I’ve been thinking about a few things...

The Serpentine typically chose to live with their own kind (usually underground).

They did begin to integrate with the rest of Ninjago after Zane defeated the Overlord.

But their big moment came when they helped defend Ninjago from Master Chen and his Snek Cult.

The tribes don’t have many enclaves outside of New Ninjago City. In fact, most villages only one family of Serpentine, if not just one individual living there as a baker or something.

Despite being a minority with a history of be aggression, the Serpentine have made a lot of headway in society at large, but that’s mostly because of the Nindroids.

Zane and Pixal were, inadvertently, the biggest role models that the Serpentine chose to idolize.

Modern Serpentine literature refers to two guardians who die time and again to protect friends and enemies alike from terrible evils.

A lot of Serpentine Hatchlings (what they call the generation born after their release from the tombs), have become monks specifically aligned with the Monastery of the FSM, solely in the hopes of becoming one of the next elemental masters (specifically, the master of Ice).

A lot of other Serpentine Hatchlings have gone to become engineers, many of which are roboticists, software/hardware engineers and cyberneticists.

The Serpentine script is far more glutteral than the majority of human languages.

The traditional Serpentine written language includes over 60 unique characters! Traditional Ninjagin uses almost 500 characters, so it’s not like it’s harder to learn, it just has more rules...

The Serpentine originated from a separate realm from humans, so their legends slightly different from humans, especially their original creation myth.

The various Serpentine originated from different realms, so that’s why their biology is slightly different.

- Pilots

- Sons of Garmadon

1. Tournament of Elements

The Skulkin look for the golden weapons to free Garmadon in the Underworld, but without a map, they have no idea where to look— until a humble merchant swings by saying he has a clue, but he’ll need some of their Underworld magic in return. The stupid skeletons agree, and Master Chen & Clouse get their hands on the golden weapons and a spell to gather the current elemental masters for their tournament. Problem is— many don’t even know they have powers!

First squad meeting is at the Tournament, and they bond through the teams they’re placed on. Lloyd is stolen straight from Darkley’s and is too young to participate so some goons keep an eye on him (though he quickly becomes babysat by the entire force of Elemental Masters). Morro is also pulled straight from the Cursed Realm to the tournament, much to his utter confusion. Master Chen’s plan to steal all the elements succeeds, and he begins his snake plan, which leads us to—

2. Rise of the Snakes

Except instead of releasing the Serpentine for evil, it’s the newly formed and very shaky Elemental Alliance trying to recruit more allies against Master Chen and his legion of Anacondria! Cole steps up as the leader the alliance needs, and after some time adjusting and bonding along the way, the alliance grows stronger.

An old man by the name of Sensei Wu approaches the group, introducing himself as Lloyd’s uncle, and offers to help train them.

Pythor is let out because they were hoping to find real Anacondia to help them fight against Master Chen, and he plays the smooth-talking saviour only to stab them in the back by tricking them into raising the Great Devourer- which... does eat Master Chen, his army, and at least some of the Golden Weapons, so... minor victories? The squad also manages to get the staff of elements back and regain their powers. However, Pythor gets away, now with the Great Devourer under his control, and Clouse does as well.

Also Morro’s part of the Alliance and is working as a sleeper agent for the Preeminent, though he’ll get his doubts over time. Skylor remains a snek, though she’s on the side of good. And Zane still does not know he’s a nindroid- he has his falcon friend, but there has been no time to investigate Birchwood Forest

3. Skybound

“But Imp!” you cry. “How can Skybound happen if Djinnjago isn’t destroyed by the Cursed Realm’s destruction?”

Well- Clouse and Pythor set up an alliance and bide their time. Clouse hears about a teapot that grants wishes and retrieves it, hoping to revive Master Chen and his army from the belly of the Great Devourer. This ends up releasing Nadakhan, who in turn gets his Misfortune’s Keep Crew back. Clouse and Pythor convince him to join their alliance, but before he revives Master Chen and the goons, he wants to take his crew to see Djinnjago, which- is not destroyed! We get some new Djinnjago lore, and the squad (the six not-ninja, Morro, and Skylor) ends up accidentally travelling along because they were in the area trying to spy on Clouse and Pythor.

Jay ends up getting himself into quite a bit of accidental trouble with the ruler of Djinnjago because he’s found ‘snooping around’ (aka looking for the group when they got separated) and winds up in an arranged marriage that the squad has to save him from- especially when his powers start going out of control both from panic and from some interference from Clouse and Pythor

With the help of the squad, Jay manages to realize his true potential and wrangle his powers back under control, though Djinnjago ends up in ruin from the resulting storm. Nadakhan, now motivated, swears vengeance on the squad and officially teams up with Clouse and Pythor, who slink into the background to plot.

Also Jay ends up with an eyepatch/eye scar for the rest of the series, I don’t make the rules, it’s Skybound

4. Possession

Djinnjago’s ruin leads to the rushing of the Preeminent’s plans as she tries to keep the Cursed Realm from crumbling. Morro is ordered to find the Realm Crystal, but first must find Wu (who has been absent this whole time keeping Garmadon and the Skulkin in check). He ends up possessing various members of the squad to find and talk to Wu, because he doesn’t want his old master to know it’s him. Wu begins to suspect anyway and Morro runs off with a kid Lloyd to find the Realm Crystal themselves with the ghost legion the Preeminent sends. Lloyd eventually manages to tip Morro’s doubts over into officially betraying the Preeminent- and then Morro is uno-reverse carded and possessed by her. Now the race for the crystal is even more pressing.

Lloyd is rescued from the Preeminent’s clutches by Kai, who gains his true potential saving him from the Temple in exchange for winding up as a ghost. Ghost!Cole might also happen, idk.

Nya eventually gains her true potential and obliterates the Preeminent and the legion of ghosts- though Morro ends up sacrificing himself to save the others from her.

(But don’t worry- he will be back!)

5. Rebooted

Clouse, Pythor, and Nadakhan are back! Using strategically planned wishes and traps (and one of Master Chen’s old allies they hire back, The Mechanic), they’re able to take control of the newly built Borg Tower (that isn’t built over an evil grave) and use it to mass produce their own army. These nindroids aren’t based on Zane, however- as he (somehow) does not yet know he is a nindroid- and are instead based on Pixal, though with varying appearances thanks to the Evil Trio’s wish for an army loyal only to them. Misfortune’s Crew is vibing, by the way.

After battling their way to Borg Tower, Zane is injured in a fight and learns he is a nindroid. The revelation comes as quite a shock to him and his team, especially with all the bad stigma around nindroids the villains’ army is creating, but they (and new ally Pixal) are quick to reassure him. Zane’s falcon friend swoops by with a set of blueprints, Zane finds the memory switch, and remembers his past.

With the help of Pixal, the squad shut down the power and sever the connection between the villains and their army, freeing the nindroids and allowing them to think for themselves. They also manage to trick Nadahkan with their new army and seal him back into the Teapot.

But the villains aren’t going out without a fight. Using collected tech from the tower, they armour up the Great Devourer and lead a charge against the squad, almost destroying them- until Zane steps forward.

And in a grand flurry of ice, snow, sacrifice, and True Potential, the Great Devourer explodes.

This leads to the retrieval of some of the Golden Weapons the Great Devourer had swallowed so long ago. The squad is devastated by Zane’s sacrifice- another member gone so soon after Morro’s sacrifice- and vow to get him back.

6. Day of the Departed

It gets to be a mini-season! When Kai, still stuck as a ghost, starts fading, it’s up to Cole, Jay, Nya, Lloyd, Pixal, and Skylor to infiltrate the Departed Realm to break his curse- and to retrieve Morro and Zane along the way! They end up splitting into teams; Jay, Nya, & Pixal, Skylor & Lloyd, and Cole &- Lou?

That’s right, Cole gets to go on a mission with his dad, get some bonding time, and discover his True Potential, all while learning about his mom and rescuing three members of the squad.

In the end, Zane and Morro are brought back (with Zane’s new body being built by the combined efforts of all the tech-oriented squad members & Cyrus Borg), and Kai regains his body

Dunno if Morro remains a ghost or is back to living in a regular body afterward

7. Pilots

Garmadon, still stuck in the Underworld due to the missing Golden Weapons & Wu’s interference and having since managed to acquire four arms, has finally had enough, and the Skulkin make their move. Needing a safe way in hand out of the underworld, the squad searches for the four guardian dragons of the weapons. After find the map in the Four Swords Blacksmiths (and a certain helmet and symbol), the squad spread out, tame the dragons, and invade the Underworld.

Lloyd- who is still a kid- is captured by Skulkin and taken to his dad, who is very happy to see his son again. Lots of sweet hugs. The weapons react around him, however, revealing him as the Green Ninja just as the others arrive to save him. Conflicted about the prophecy and through the convincing of his son not to hurt his new family right now, Garmadon escapes to Ninjago using the newly formed Megaweapon without a fight.

8/9. Legacy of the Green Ninja / Hands of Time

With Garmadon free, he can begin his attack on Ninjago, using wishes from the mega weapon to attempt to take out the Elemental Alliance without hurting his son. Because they’re cool, there’s a bunch of different bizarros/evil ninja clones for Pixal, Skylor, and Morro (and possibly other EMs)- and some of them manage to get away, because I say so.

Wu brings up the prophecy of the Green Ninja and how the weapons reacted to Lloyd in the Underworld and what it means. Morro, who's been hiding from Sensei Wu, finally talks with him about the scroll and their history and resolves some of their conflict, though it will take some time to heal. Wu says that seeing Morro again has given him the courage to face his other mistakes of the past and heads off alone

In the middle of all this Megaweapon Madness, Acronix lands in the present and fights Wu- who is rescued by Morro and the members of the Alliance. From here the squad juggles fighting Garmadon and fighting the Time Twins, switching who fights who repeatedly and trying to keep the two (three) villains from teaming up.

Kai and Nya track down the clues earlier and find their parents, fight them, and make-up. However, they’re forced to grab the time blade under the boiling sea

In the end, the Time Twins temporarily age-up Lloyd, fast-forwarding the prophecy. Misako appears and the squad splits into two groups- the Core 4 and Lloyd head to the Island of Darkness, brought forth by the mega weapon, while the other Elemental Masters (+ Pixal) take on the Time Twins. Garmadon becomes possessed by the Overlord, who invades Ninjago. Before he can take it over, the Time Twins send everyone to the past- back when the Overlord first settled on the Dark Island. There starts a three-way fight between our heroes, the Time Twins and their mech, and the Overlord, past and present.

After much dark matter and time travel, Lloyd gains his golden powers and frees his father from evil. Everyone travels back to the present and Wu traps the Time Twins in the timestream but is de-aged to a baby. The squad find him immediately while Lloyd is reversed back to his kid-state as he belongs, and all is well.

Also- while travelling to the Dark Island, the Core 4 + Lloyd and Misako stumbled upon Dr. Julien and Echo in the lighthouse and rescue them.

10. Master of the Mountain

While taking a much-deserved break after so much craziness, the squad is invited to Shintaro for the birthday of Princess Vania. Newly reformed Sensei Garmadon is invited along as well, getting to spend even more time with his wife and his young son because they deserve to be happy gosh darn it.

Cole is especially excited after hearing from his father that Lily used to visit Shintaro (a continuation of the Day of the Departed mini season storyline of Cole learning more about his mom) and seeks to know why she visited so often. After an encounter with the Geckle in the middle of the night, Cole, Vania, and a curious Morro venture into the mines and discover the Skulk Sorcerer.

Many aspects of the season stay relatively the same. One of the major differences is that Wu’s arc about him regaining his confidence in himself as a teacher & his place in the group is instead traded for an arc of Sensei Garmadon adjusting to a no-venom life, and Garmadon is the one to accompany Vania and Cole to the depths of the mountain while babysitting his baby-ified brother.

Also Morro gets to tame Grief Bringer, as a treat

11. Sons of Garmadon

The squad return to Ninjago City after their trip to Shintaro to find it under attack by a biker-gang that wants to re-corrupt Sensei Garmadon! It’s a race for the Oni masks, which the SoG believe will have the power to turn Garmadon evil again. Harumi tries to get Garmadon’s beloved son out of the way because he’s impeding the mission, but overall her hatred is against all the members of the Elemental Alliance for not stopping Pythor and the Great Devourer sooner.

The SoG gather all three masks first, but thanks to some fantastic undercover work by “Snake Jaguar, Rocky Dangerbuff, Citrine Snake, and Ominous Wind” (Zane, Cole, Morro, and Skylor), the squad manage to interrupt the ceremony and save Sensei Garmadon & his family! A very defeated SoG swear vengeance and run off to lick their wounds.

But in the shadows, a new villain is lurking…

12. Prime Empire

The Mechanic, aided by some dark magic from Clouse, teams up with Unagami to spread Prime Empire across the city. In return for their help, Unagami offers their help in: controlling the electronics in the city to ensure bank heists run smoothly (for the Mechanic) and destroying the Ninja (for Clouse). They just need an internal battery...

Jay is lured into the game and the others plunge in after him- including Skylor and Morro, who also get their unique avatar looks, and possibly Zane, Pixal, and Echo (Zane’s avatar is his Ninjago Confidential look). They locate “Jay” and find the key blades, meeting Okino, Scott, and Racer Seven - only to learn the Jay travelling with them is just an NPC projection sent by Jay, and that the real Jay is at the heart of the game, being hooked up as a battery. They race to rescue him, and upon finding Unagami, the portal to the real world opens.

The squad fight Unagami and begin to talk them down, but Clouse and the Mechanic blackmail them into continuing the fight. Despite warnings not to because of the danger, Jay overloads the portal by tapping into his true potential and lightning powers.

The NPCs and players are freed from the game, but it comes at a cost- a rip in space and time opens and sucks in Kai, Zane, Echo, Cole, a young Wu, and Jay (as well as the Mechanic and Clouse), leaving the rest of the squad in Ninjago City

13/14. Hunted / Fire Chapter / Ice Chapter

Nya, Pixal, Morro, Skylor, Lloyd, and Sensei Garmadon search for the missing half of the squad, but the explosion of the portal seems to have left no survivors and they fear the worst. Desperate to find his brother and his students, Sensei Garmadon, led into a trap with a false map, accidentally finds an ancient artifact that corrupts him back to evil. This map was a gift curtsy of the Sons of Garmadon, who make their vicious return and attack the city.

Meanwhile, in an icy realm...

Zane crashes in the Neverrealm along with the Mechanic and is knocked out. Sensing an opportunity, the Mechanic reprograms him and wipes his memory, and teams up with local evildoer Vex that knows his way around the realm. Despite not having the Staff of Forbidden Spinjitzu, Zane is still quite powerful, especially with the Mechanic’s upgrades

Meanwhile, in a desert long back in time...

Kai and Echo crash-land in a desert both familiar and unfamiliar, and find themselves locked in the past! While exploring, they come across a young Wu- but it isn’t the young Wu they’ve come to know. It’s the Wu of the past, along with a young Garmadon, on their way to teach their new snake friend Aspheera some Spinjitzu! Kai’s suspicious but Echo, naive bean, offers friendship- dragging Kai and Echo into Aspheera’s plot to overthrow the Serpentine King.  Kai and Echo (alongside the young Garmadon and Wu) almost seem to defeat Aspheera- until her help, Clouse, revels himself and attacks with dark magic. Kai has his powers dampened by Clouse's magic and, despite not trusting it, grabs one of the Scrolls of Forbidden Spinjitzu in a desperate move to save Echo from a magic blast.

However, Clouse's magic binds the staff to Kai’s hand, and just as Kai and Echo defeat him and Aspheera, Aspheera manages to banish them both to another realm, along with the second staff- though Clouse is left trapped in the past and entombed. Kai and Echo awake in a land of ice, and while trudging to the shelter of a cave, fail to notice the second staff lying in the snow behind them...

Vex and the Mechanic get their hands on this staff and use it to further power up their Ice Emperor. Kai and Echo catch wind of a ‘metallic figure falling from the sky’ one day and rush to the palace to save Zane, thinking the Ice Emperor has him prisoner. Along the way, they meet Akita and Kragg, and become allies. Kai struggles with the corruption of the staff but luckily has Echo along to keep him from falling to its clutches. They infiltrate the palace, free Akita’s brother, discover the Ice Emperor’s identity, and battle him. Kai and the Ice Emperor have a one-on-one, staff vs. staff, fire vs. ice fight, and while Kai succeeds in melting off most of the Ice Emperor’s armour and upgrades, he’s wounded by ice and nearly killed- only for Echo to leap in the way. Jogged by the memory of his brother & his close friend, Zane snaps out of it and turns on Vex and the Mechanic.

They’re able to free the staff from Kai’s hand, free the realm, and then use the staffs to create a portal home.

While all this is going on, in a barren wasteland...

Cole, a young Wu, and an unconscious Jay emerge in the First Realm. Seeing his friend limp, Cole drags him and Wu to shelter, then cares for them until Jay regains consciousness. Unfortunately, the blast of lightning overloading the portal also temporarily overloaded Jay’s brain, leaving him loopy, a bit deranged, alternating between drained and overcharged powers, and with a spotty memory.

That’s right, Cole’s on babysitting duty. And he would have done a darn good job at it- especially with his increased elemental powers ever since Shintaro and learning the Spinjitzu Burst move- if the Dragon Hunters hadn’t arrived. He’s kidnapped and held at their camp, first under pretence as an oni, then as an elemental master, leaving Wu and Jay to rescue him.

As expected, the rescue mission goes awry.

Also Jay blows up the camp with a server over-necessary amount of lightning while giggling like a maniac. Young teen Wu claps.

Faith ends up giving them a ride, searching for the dragon armour, and the rest of the season goes somewhat normal- plus a bit more shenanigans from Cole having the only braincell- and with Firstborne’s help, they’re able to return to Ninjago City.

Which is, despite the resistance of Nya, Pixal, Morro, Skylor, Lloyd, and the other Elemental Masters, not looking so great. The SoG, along with a corrupted Sensei Garmadon, have the city almost completely taken over, with only the Resistance holding them back from total control. Morro and Lloyd get an arc about what it means to be the Green Ninja, and together with the reunited squad, they uncorrupt Sensei Garmadon and overthrow the SoG once and for all.

Also UV meets her match against an overcharged Jay & an overprotective pissed-off Nya and gets hit by a boatload of lightning and water while Killow is beaten up with kindness by Echo

Zane gets to take some time for himself (well, with the group, because he hates being separated from them) because he’s already traumatized from the Neverrealm and needs some recovery.

With Vex and the Mechanic in the Neverrealm, Clouse stuck in a tomb, Aspheera (present) never released from her prison yet, the SoG disbanded, Nadakhan locked in the Teapot since Rebooted, Master Chen long gone, the Iron Baron melted into a statue via dragon-breath, the Time Twins lost to the vortex, the Skull Sorcerer defeated, Unagami redeemed, and Sensei Garmadon uncorrupted, it looks like all is well.

But one last threat rests over the horizon... though there’s a small stop first.

15. The Island

(As I have recently finished watching this special, I can now slot it in)

A small interlude- Misako, Sensei Garmadon, a now-no-longer-child Wu, Lloyd, Morro, Kai, and Nya are on a well-earned family vacation when suddenly their explorer vessel crashes in the Storm Belt. They call for help, leading Cole, Pixal, Skylor, Zane, and Jay on a mission to save them.

They go to Twitchy Tim for a map but leave the poor guy at home to rest, and Jay actually gets him to cooperate by being a kindred spirit in being overcharged and forgetful (he has a cable with a battery that he chews on to regulate his powers). Then the rescue mission is off-

And immediately crash land. Go figure.

They meet Zippy (because Zippy is amazing) and end up by the Keepers, who accuse them of trying to steal the Storm Gem. They’re locked up, with Jay being used as a sacrifice because of his overcharged lightning being mistaken as a sign of Wojira.

The squad breaks out as normal, tries to rescue Jay, fail, realize it’s a fake, explain to the Keepers, and go fight Ronin (and potentially Pythor), which includes a very awkward confrontation between Ronin and Morro. The day is saved and everyone can go home!

At least the whole experience meant Jay got hit by a bunch of extra lightning, which, while not a total ‘cheesy fix it’, does help him regulate his powers more and stop being quite as loopy. Also ominous sleeping Wojira yada yada I haven’t finished Seabound yet no spoilers

16. March of the Oni

The ominous evil from the end of S14 is finally strong enough to make its move! One final charge of evil against our heroes and the allies they’ve made along the way! The oni are coming, and it’s time to act fast. The Elemental Alliance evacuate the city with the help of the Serpentine and the Nindroid Army, with Okino being a prominent guide in getting people to safety. Vania’s guards help carry any remaining citizens to the sky as the dark smoke begins to envelope the city.

With the civilians safe, the squad focus on getting Wu, Garmadon, and Lloyd into the smog as the only three with oni blood. Cole still gets his dramatic fall but he Spinjitzu Bursts when he lands and makes a comment to himself over how it wasn’t nearly as high as the fall in Shintaro.

It ends with a giant Tornado of Creation, including Amber and Wind, and a big group celebration!

And then maybe Crystallized happens somehow idk haven’t seen it no spoilers! And then Seabound after? Dunno

And yeah, that’s the season rewrite! :D Feel free to ask questions or leave comments

Dumb AU challenge.

Shuffle up the Ninjago timeline by random number and rewrite how the mixed up seasons would still flow with a rewritten narative.

This means the Ninja could be working solo until S1 happens 4 seasons down the line. Nya could be merged with sea as soon as 2 seasons. Etc.

The only restriction would be for Day of The Departed has to be either before Hands of Time or after Possesion. And The Island has to be before Seabound.

The list of Seasons:

Pilots (and mini movies)

Rise of the Snakes

Legacy of the Green Ninja

Rebooted

Tournament of Elements

Possession (w/DotD epilogue)

Skybound

Hands of Time (w/ DotD prologue)

Sons of Garmadon

Hunted

March of The Oni

Secrets of Forbidden Spinjitzu (Fire and Ice Chapters can be 12a and 12b)

Prime Empire

Master of The Mountain

Seabound (w/ The Island prologue)

Crystalized

Another restriction that can be applied would be to shuffle the timeline in two portions of WILFilms Era and WildBrain Era.

WILFilms Era being Pilots through Hands of Time-

And WildBrain Era being Sons of Garmadon through Crystalized.

[impulsivefanwriter]

Ninjago Season 1: Episode 4: Never Trust a Snake

White has a dream where funky birb tells him to “WAKE UP, ZANE.” White follows birb’s advice and wakes up. Everything still feels inception-y and when he’s on the deck Lord G, the man, the myth, the legend shows up and demands the ice triangles and other golden plot devices. White says no. Lord G slam dunks him in a trash can.

Green Ninja ex machina appears to save him, posing dramatically with the birb.

“Who are you?” White wonders.

He never finds out because birbs flood the deck.

White wakes up for real but thinks he’s still in inception- a pillow to the face clears that up. The Fruity Bois train and do stretches on the deck with very awkward lego animation. Grumpy Old Man asks them a riddle because he is a sphinx now. They must answer the riddle, but fail miserably because they all role nat 1 on Wisdom and are more focused on who will be the Green Ninja

Meanwhile, GarmaGremlin takes the Vampire Sneks across the snow to fight the Hypno Sneks. Turns out Vampire Snek leader and Hypno Snek are total dude bros / speed run enemies to lovers and the war is called off. GarmaGremlin runs off with no allies.

He wanders the desert because this kid can just travel huge distances in short time and finds a tomb. Only one snek is inside. Very casually implied cannibalism in a kid’s show. Friendship with Hypno Snek and Vampire Snek over, now Pythor P. Chumsworth is his new best friend / henchman.

They steal candy from triplets and other very evil deeds. GarmaGremlin trauma dumps on Pythor P. Chumsworth and says he was kicked out of bad boi school because he’s a not-bad-sad-boi. Pythor P. Chumsworth suggests revenge even though we are several seasons away from a snake that wants revenge.

Grumpy Old Man still does not have an answer to his cryptic riddle. The Fruity Bois go to stop GarmaGremlin and Pythor P. Chumsworth at bad boi school. They break through the roof on an anchor and find kidnapped bad bois at the bottom, then race up. Blue takes the elevator. Black climbs the chains. Blue takes the elevator. Red and White take the stairs and get slimed. Blue takes the elevator.

Did I mention Blue takes the elevator.

Pythor P. Chumsworth is confronted by Blue, because the elevator was actually the one choice they didn’t expect, grabs the map, snitches on the kid, and dips. Blue kidnapps GarmaGremlin.

GarmaGremlin, being Grumpy Old Man’s nephew, gets read a bedtime story. Riddle is finally solved. GarmaGremlin is now GarmaLesserGremlin.

Okay Ninjago fandom, let’s see if we can play a game.

I’m going to briefly summarise the plot of of the first pilot episode in a comedic way, and the next person must do the same for the next episode. Each person must check the reblogs to so they can do the most recent episode, and we should just have a chain of simplified Ninjago episodes. You are allowed to reblog this multiple times. I’ll start:

Ninjago Pilots: Episode 1 - Way of the Ninja

Local independent business owner, Kai, gets heckled by an old man and then biker skeletons show up and kidnap Kai’s sister for no reason. The old man tells Kai that the skeletons work for his evil brother who he pushed into a hole once, and then he promises to teach Kai the art of spinning real fast. However Kai only learns the art of spilling the tea. Then Kai gets attacked by ninja and must fight them with his toothbrush!

[peak-dumbass]

Here's the situation, i crave some pythor appreciation rn for some reason, so what is your favorite thing about him??? <3 (luv u fam uwu)

Tbh I love a lot of things about Pythor cuz he was and still is such a cool character to me, I know he’s kind of a basic villain but as one of the first villains in Ninjago, he’s a classic and I think that’s why I like him so much!

He kind of reminds me of Scar from The Lion King but as a purple Snek that can swallow a person whole and keep them in his stomach for a limited amount of time until he either eats them or vomits them out :> I also just realized that they both have British accents so that’s another thing that they have in common

Another plus is his design:

Purple, which is a classic evil color in kids TV shows plus it just looks really nice

The black and small bits of gold just look really cool in general along with the blue crystal/gem-thingys he has in his head and chest

I never noticed this until now but he’s either always wearing gloves or just has black hands that fade or cut off into his purple scales for some reason and tbh both sound interesting to me

Fun fact that I also didn’t know: he’s the only Anacondri with an extended neck

I f—king love his and the Great Devourer’s pink eyes just 👌👌👌

Also his eyes turn reddish/pinkish after getting eaten by the Devourer and that’s also cool cuz it’s very vibrant(?) idk what the correct term is I just like it compared to his new white scales

I also really like how his black parts turned purple, and his design in general is just cool and how he kept all of that snek necc inside that smol hood will always be a mystery to me :/???

There’s also the fact that he’s technically the reason why Zane had to explode in season 3 BUT LETS NOT FOCUS ON THAT :D

I also liked how he was kinda redeemed in Season 4 with the Chen situation and stuff, how he nicknames a lot of things “Ronaldo” for some reason, and that he gets to grow back into his original size this shot really shows how much of a tall boi he is, also let’s just forget what happened in DOTD, ok? Ok 👌

Aka he’s just a fun villain character in general with him feeling like a Classic Disney villain like Ursula, Yzma, and, like I said before, Scar :}

(And I love you too fam UwU)

Edit: I forgot to also mention that he also has eyeliner and that looks really nice 👌👌👌

[peak-dumbass]

Ninjago Sander Sides AU cuz the last SS video was an oof for Roman plz help my poor princy boi

So I’m in love with Ninjago and I’m in love with SS so I’m combining the 2 to make an AU with Thomas and the sides replaced by the ninja

I’m gonna get the obvious ones out of the way (aka the ones that fit perfectly into the role)

Thomas is replaced by Lloyd (wholesome main character that needs some f—king help like Jesus)

Roman/Creativity is replaced by Kai (egotistical handsome sword fighter/prince that tries his best to help Thomas/Lloyd to achieve his hopes and dreams/goals)

Logan/Logic is replaced by Zane (smart sassy and secretively soft teacher figure that is that holder of the brain cell basically 90-100% of the time and knows the solution to basically every conflict)

Now here’s where I start to get if-y on the roles cuz they could fill them but I’m not 100% sure on it

Virgil/Anxiety is replaced by Morro (everyone loves them too much don’t lie we all know Morro gets more love then he should and that Virgil is getting babey-ed by most people even though Thomas made a video about Virgil saying that he’s still scary and yet people still saying he’s a soft babey bean that needs to be protecced from what I’ve heard I’m not in the fandom myself, they’re both E-boys that use too much eyeshadow and were used to be perceived as a villain but are now good/got redeemed even if Morro’s redemption only lasted 44mins)

Patton/Mortality is replaced by Jay (this is the one I’m still pretty if-y on, they’re both good soft bois and are big on the color blue but that’s basically it for similarities, Patton is a goofy father figure character while Jay is bastard babey that acts more like a child than the actual child on the team, but I can’t really think of any other character that can take this role so we’re left with Jay, and no Cole won’t work cuz though we all love Dad Cole, Patton can be pretty ignorant and can think that he’s helping people when he’s actually hurting them that was pretty clear in that latest video but Cole, though sometimes oblivious, understands when he needs to stop and let someone else help and though they both have self-worth issues they’re for very different reasons)

Name is revealed but is spoiler for new video/Deceit is replaced by Snek Jay(?) (I can’t think of sh-t for Deceit other than this I’m sorry and since Deceit is the opposite of Patton, then Snek Jay is opposite of Jay? Yeah that’s a sh-t exuse let’s move on)

Remus/Darkside to Creativity/Intrusive Thoughts is replaced by Staff Corrupted/Evil Kai(?) (same thing with Deceit and Snek Jay can’t really think of anyone plus opposite of Kai)

So yeah these are my thoughts cuz I post whatever I want so deal with it :>
