Attention all Ninjago tumblr artists and writers!

Masters of Zinejitsu is excited to announce our very first ninjago fanzine-

Elements of Sentiments!

Elements of Sentiments is about bringing artists and writers across the fandom (or at least the tumblr side) together, with the purpose of putting a spotlight on your favorite ships! Our goal is to pair one artist and one writer and assign them a ship. The pairings will then create a collaborative piece of art + a short ficlet inspired by one of four themes. Angst, Jealousy, Crush, and Comfort. Both the ship and theme will be assigned based on personal preference. However it is important to keep in mind that only one ship is allowed per pairing (with five ships per theme). So it is likely you will not get your first choice.

While it is always nice to have a partner in mind, that is not required! We will be pairing up single individuals based on preferences. If you have someone in mind you want to collaborate with you will have the option to put that on your application when the time comes. You have a week from now to get your ducks in a row in that regard. We also ask that you have your portfolio’s/example pieces ready to go and visible without having to request access ahead of time. One last thing! We are limiting our acceptance to ships to Ninja X Ninja OR ninja adjacent characters. So no OC’s or self-ships. We are also limiting our accepted content to canon or canon-compliant AU’s only (as there are some ships on here that haven’t met/haven’t interacted in canon in a very long time). This is so our scope is more focused and cohesive. We do have future plans for OC and AU zines however so there’s always next time!

Applications will be opening up next Sunday June 22nd at 12 PM PST. Until then we will be introducing our mod team. Feel free to check out our FAQ *link that here*, and if you still have any questions shoot an ask our way!

Have a fantastic rest of your day! –  The Masters of Zinejistu Mod Team

P.S if you want to be added to our taglist to make sure you see all of the most important updates, just let us know! P.P.S As we set up the tumblr proper some links might be missing for a bit, we apologize for the inconvience

Well hello there

Bunn back at it again with another ramble. Well, more so a headcanon that helps me sleep at night ig. I was mainly reminded of today's topic via remembering Skybound and how incomplete Nya's arc is but that's a different deranged rant for another day.

For now, here's a little headcanon/theory I have about the iconic future vision!

So this is iffy in terms of whether it's canon or not. Within the show itself it's never clear whether the ice vision is set in stone or not but we have received tweets from I believe Doc and Tommy confirming it's still in effect.

I shall be ignoring this today! Cause those are tweets and not within the show itself so it's free real estate.

This entire theory hinges on one singular part of Skybound which is this:

Now obviously Nya means figuratively but this got me thinking: What if it was literal?

If we follow the train of thought of what if Jay was captured instead it does lead to Nadakhan being defeated probably without Nya dying. Without Nya dying, time doesn't get reversed and all of Skybound's events remain the same.

What does this mean? Well, the simple answer is Cole dies.

If Skybound's time doesn't get reversed, Djinnjago goes crashing down into Ninjago City. This includes Yang's Temple. But wait! Without Yang's Temple, the events of Day of the Departed never happen.

And Cole would disappear.

And- doesn't Cole not have a reflection in the ice vision? As if he just faded from existence- forgotten with no future.

There's my theory, that this moment defied destiny and changed the course of everything. I personally like it for multiple reasons, both that I find it a fun headcanon and that I like the idea of Nya actively choosing her own future even if she doesn't know it. I like giving her a win and also it makes sense of Cole's whole situation that doesn't involve him dying prematurely.

manifesting that monstrosity releases right after the premiere so i don't have to abandon tumblr 🙏

sneaks back in

yeah i feel the same way- i've never gotten invested in it? also it just feels bland to me and i kinda prefer them as rivals/friends. IG this more so relates to them not having a strong canon dynamic but it just feels like paring the two tech girls together just cause.

i think it could be possible for something interesting to happen if you pair early seasons lack of identity Pixal w/ very free willed and individualistic Nya but in later seasons it doesn't work as well and i think they work best as friends and maybe rivals who see who can build the best mech

i haven't engaged too much in the ship so i could always be wrong but eh 🤷

anyway off i go, slinking back into the shadows

looks around nervously, i am terrified and afraid, i whisper quietly

i also don't like samurai-shipping-

runs away before the pitchforks come

there's my based sigma bunn !!! I think part of why I dislike it is I associate it with some Poor friendships I've had, but the other is it just feels so BASIC !!! like yeah it was cute when they held hands in DRs3 but I honestly. Don't Care ??? like maybe I'm too Rainepilled but I just do not CARE for their dynamic as a ship !!! I don't have a Valid reason to think its boring but honestly I'm past the point in life where everything needs a Valid reason, it's just a boring ship !!!

[abunnsburrow]

Question for the Ninjago fandom:

Post Skybound, since Yang's temple is still floating for some reason, would Yang remember Skybound?

[abunnsburrow]

Welp, might as well do this

Send me some characters to draw!

hello resident fellow nya fan here and i would love to discuss how amazing she is

remember when she literally carried the entire team (4 ninja and a NINDROID) and swung them over a pit of LAVA?! good times

anyway on to a analysis that u can just ignore if u want

one thing that i actually find the coolest and most interesting thing about Nya is how she faces difficult situations. she is one of the ninja that i believe actually has the most faith in things turning out okay and is surprisingly optimistic

okay hear me out

Nya, while in terms of her personal failings has a hard time facing them, and DEFINITELY is very harsh on herself, has developed a firm belief that there is another way out and a general faith in other people. it's actually a really consistent thing especially around S5 starting with Cole. in S6 in the Lighthouse she firmly believes that Jay can save everyone. S7 we see her believe that her parents are good despite having no reason to(not the best example but there is more). between her & Kai in S8, she's the one who believes everything will turn out okay. S9 she keeps going despite everything and in S10 she's the one who believes Kai can forge the Golden Weapons. S12 she has faith that she and Jay can win, and S14's ending is all about that belief being challenged. She resents her mom because of the belief that they're had to be something other than just leaving her and Kai behind. Yet in the end she's forced in a similar situation to that and sees there is no other way out, no ninja twist or happy ending, there is only one choice if she wants to save the world and Jay.

In DR we see her never lose faith in getting back Jay either. It's such a cool aspect of her character that I love and I don't see this talked about a lot I think.

I like to think it comes from her having been around the Ninja all the time. After all they always manage to find a happy ending, they always come back, so why shouldn't she believe everything will turn out okay just as always?

Anyway idk if u wanted Nya Character Analysis but there ya go

nya is goated lets discuss

[abunnsburrow]

WE DID IT EVERYONE!

NYA WON!!!
