Yes, because you'd know all about being fraudulent and resourceful, wouldn't you Cap?

That's really gotta suck. Going most of your childhood, being told that you were going to be some legendary ninja, only for it to not be true? I can only imagine how angry Morro was, how hurt and betrayed he felt. Everything about his future was a lie.

i haven't let myself feel too disappointed because i know there's nothing i can do to change it and instead have been trying to find the good in what we did get but god you know actually, the Captain deserved to have a whole episode dedicated to him. that's it. i have no idea what i would've wanted it to look like but that's all i know. a whole episode exploring his character in depth. all the others had at least one that focused on them, why did he not get the same?

[nyaskitten]

s5 is peak Ninjago imo. you got the ninja struggling to lead, you got Cole as a ghost, you got a villain who feels like destiny is beneath him and that he should control his destiny, you got the ninja all singing a dumb song on wallopers, you got the ninja pranking Cole (and in general feeling WAY closer than I remembered), you got Ronin, who is a genuinely intriguing character, you got Nya struggling with perfectionism and her powers, and most importantly, you got epic jokes.

[crowleysfall]

I will never get over this scene

Ghost Files #205

Uhhh my ghosts thoughts

Spoilers under the cut but

TLDR: I enjoyed parts of it but was underwhelmed as a whole. It was a nice episode but fails to reach the heights of season 3

First I will say, I was happy while watching the episode I enjoyed lots of things.

Seeing the ghosts, Mike and Alison with the baby was wonderful. Really lovely. Mia is a lovely name and they really are great parents.

I would have liked more ghosts backseat parenting as a whole. Might have driven home the need for Alison to get away from them, rather than lady button needing to let Alison breathe. That or there being a bigger B-plot. Robin as the character who doesn't feel Christmassy feels eh, if there wasn't a bigger pay off than a speech about them moving on then maybe.

Kitty should have been the character. It would have been a lovely period of growth, and almost like a growing up type thing. Kitty grew up enough that she is ready to let Alison go.

They really missed the jokes in this episode. I maybe had two big laughs. Season 5 as a whole felt a lot less funny (other than En Francis.) like in the exorcism scene, when they realised they were going to be okay and it didn't work they should have made a joke.

I dont know if id ask for more ghosts in the episode. The show is Alison's and Mike's story. It's the Ghosts who are the supporting their story. They are the foundation and the last episode has to focus on them.

Finally the ending. Im fine with it. I think it's the right ending for the show. I don't know how else they could have ended it without making a massive swing or left it open ended (which would have been less complete)

Yes things are different and that's okay but they really should have constructed season 5 as a whole to support the ending. Yes it makes sense now the baby is here things are so different but my point is why then even make last resort? Why not make the episode end with the Julian reveal and speech still but don't introduce the idea of selling it in that episode. Maybe a line in A Christmas Gift about an offer to sell the house that Alison blows off saying "I don't think I could ever leave, I don't think the Ghosts would even let me" but as the episode builds we realise the ghosts have grown enough that they can face an afterlife without Alison always being a shout away. That like family it was time for her to leave the nest and grow as her own new family that still visits the old one.

It's my biggest issue with the episode. Also I really dislike the reaction fans are having to each other having differing opinions. Like don't directly sent hate to the creators (or even joke hate wtf) but also... Let people dislike it. Let people like it.

Anyway, a nice episode but as a final bow felt more of a whimper that turns into a yell rather than a standing ovation.
