Morro except after all the healing and growing he meets the preeminent again and she destroys his mental state, leaving him once again without his sanity.

tbh if wu sat the ninja down and told them about all his past enemies like ive seen some people say it would take WEEKS. mans has been alive for over THOUSANDS OF YEARS

and even so there's no REASON to tell them. let's say morro for example. he hasn't seen him in like 30 years and as much as it hurts it's probably safe to say the kid is dead, considering his quest and the reason he left. he wasn't expecting to open up the cursed realm, or him to escape, hell he probably wasn't even expecting morro to BE in the cursed realm in the first place. also it just seems kinda personal why would he tell them about his failed most likely dead adopted son at all

AND ASPHEERA she was locked away a THOUSAND YEARS AGO it would make sense wu didn't see the need to tell them of yet another mistake he made when he was like 12 cause it's not RELEVANT anymore. she wasn't supposed to be freed in the first place

and this ties back to something i said a while ago. he told people too much and as a result they DIED and OVERTHREW THE MONARCHY IN A DAY. it makes sense he doesn't want to tell the ninja anything. especially if you consider the kai and morro parallels

if you want to argue about the time twins it's not the ninjas battle, it happened before they were even born. he most likely didn't want to burden them with yet another one of his enemies when it's not even relevant to them

either way if i were wu i wouldn't tell them about every person who disliked me over the course of my thousands years of life, especially when there was supposedly no chance of them coming back. too much of a hassle

I think everyone should rewatch all of Ninjago honestly.

hey go listen to can't sleep by k. flay

its such a fucking experience

You're right. That was an experience, the singer has a pretty unique voice, and her genre in general is unique. I quite like it.

It's very fever-dream ish, I think. It sounds familiar.

OH.THATS BECAUSE SHE SANG HIGH ENOUGH. OH OK ALRIGHT THAT MAKES SENSE.

I didn't know those were the same person. That's crazy. Anyways my favourite part was when the beat dropped, and the chorus is really nice. A relatable song for you huh??

I just joined Tik tok again after like an year or smth cuz I wanted to find more edits of my fave shows and for my friends to be able to send my tim tons easier etc etc that’s not my point.

I noticed that the Ninjago community there hates Euphrasia WAYY too much 😭😭 and it’s getting very fucking annoying 💀💀

LIKE 😭😭 Why are are they calling her a “pick me girl” 😭😭 WHAT DID SHE EVEN DO💀💀 Everyone just pissed that “she’s replacing Morro” and it’s so annoying cuz- Morro fucking died 💀 it’s over 😭😭 look I dunno if when he died again he went to the departed realm or just disappears out of the phase of the earth but he wasn’t gonna keep his power anyways 😭😭 that’s just how it works 🦭..and if the case is that he went to the departed realm and there’s a chance for him to come back- then ok??? He’ll come back without his elemental power??? 😭 But then again I really doubt he would come back and y’all r simply gonna have to deal w that. Iike when an elemental master dies their power goes to someone else period. You can’t expect him to keep that damn power forever 😭😭 and it makes much more sense since it’s a new series- new generation of elemental masters. It’s not that surprising that they decided to find a new Wind master.

AND STOP CALLING HER PICK ME WHY DOES EVERYONE CALL HER PICK ME GIRL😭😭 srs what did she even do other than exist and just have morros “ex” elemental power😟

⬆️ this post >>>

guys yknow that post w/ the nya misako and harumi textposts...I saw an 'erm ackshually 🤓☝' person in the tags ranting abt how harumi is worse than morro bc she hurt lloyd or some shit...and I have the extreme urge to just replace 'harumi' with 'morro' to show the entire fucking point of the post

should I

[dzyntara]

Possessed kai AU I think about you every day

Morro and Kai, narrative foils. They have so much in common. They are so different to each other. Their core values are what separate them from going the same path. Kai’s road to freedom from control would be his love for Lloyd and dedication to keeping his little brother safe, moving on from that jealousy he used to feel and becoming a better person-

and also green fire is cool. uploaded the right version this time

[cable-salamdr]

Tw Blood, injury, bright colors (? Kinda. Better safe than sorry ig)

It has come to my attention that not everyone has this as their headcanon so I am here to spread propaganda through my wonderful art: Kai getting his scar in the first fight with Morro in season 5 (and consequentially being a constant reminder of that time to Lloyd).

(Also There’s no actual blood on Kai in that second one. It’s simply Lloyd’s imagination.)

Lloyd having a lil mental breakdown + and older rendition of this idea down below

I drew those latter ones back in like December of last year/ this January when I came up with this idea, I might redraw it tho because i don’t particularly like how it looks now, but the idea’s still the same :]]]

The feminine urge to have villains in Same New Whip who all know Wu and mock him for all his past mistakes and regrets including Morro

FINALLY!! an excuse for me to talk about this

So first off: that's literally Kai's entire character, from wanting to become the green ninja, realizing he's not the green ninja, to accepting that he will not be the green ninja, so to have him get what he wants feels flat, plus, it won't work with the already established plot.

Second off: from episode one, the plot made it very clear that the green ninja is not gonna be one of the main four, as the scroll has shown five figures with one of them being the green ninja, meaning that the gn is someone outside the main four, plus it was already hinted at that Lloyd was gonna be the fifth member who'll become the green ninja with the green number five on his shirt, also, one of the signs of the gn is his four guardians who he'll inherit his powers from, so with everything that was established, Kai being the green ninja will not work, bc everything was established in favour of Lloyd (or disfavour from mental health perspective).

Third off: even if the writers were planning to make Kai the green ninja, there needs to be MAJOR plot change in order for it to work.

TL;DR: everything was established and written in favour of Lloyd, so in order for Kai being the green ninja to work, there needs to be some major plot changes.

I recently saw a poll on Instagram that was as follows:

"Who should have really been the green ninja?"

The poll was between Kai (8069) and Lloyd (8059).

I have a lot of feelings about this, but I want to preface with: my opinion on this has nothing to do with how I feel about Lloyd as a character. Even if he was my least favorite in the show, I would still feel this way. It has less to do with Lloyd, and more do do with Kai.

The people who genuinely believe Kai should have been the green ninja do not understand Kai as a character. This is a bold statement, and I don't say it to be rude or condescending. There are so many nostalgia blind people in the fandom (moreso on Twitter and Instagram than here on Tumblr). These people have convinced themselves the show is bad because Kai didn't become the green ninja.

Here is my rebuttal: Ninjago depends solely on Lloyd becoming the green ninja.

Yes, all the other characters are important to the show, and there are many moving factors that make the show possible. However, the first season is completely about discovering the green ninja who will rise against the ultimate evil. And that character was never going to be Kai. The writers didn't decide last minute to make Lloyd the green ninja.

If Kai were the green ninja, his character would be bland, and ultimately, he'd be insufferable. Kai's development would have never happened had he been the green ninja. He would have stayed an egotistical hothead who assumed he was better than everyone. The character that these nostalgia blind fans love was created only because he realized that he was not destined to be "the best".

Furthermore, the Ultimate Battle would have had no emotional impact. At all. Across all media platforms, I see love for "Rise of the Spinjitzu Master". Even the people who believe Kai should've been the green ninja have shown their love for that episode. But that episode would not be well loved... like... at all... if Kai were the one fighting. Why? Because it wasn't his father that was being held hostage. It wasn't his story to be told. It would be a flashy fight, sure, but the fight choreography isn't what makes the moment so rewarding. It's the fact that Lloyd saved his father and purified the part of him that was thought to be long lost.

This is not meant to belittle who believe Kai should have been the green ninja. I just think they refuse to look past a story standpoint because their favorite didn't get the fancy power. It was never meant to be Kai. And he wouldn't have ever grown or changed had it been.

I also know that not all Kai stans are like this. It's mostly just Insta/Twitter fans who refuse to debate. They're also the ones that discredit SoG onwards because the designs changed. There's no point in trying to talk with them because they just... yea.

I just felt the need to write this because I've seen a lot of this on Instagram lately. I got a reel of Lloyd using the Dragon Cores to stop the mergequakes and someone in the comments was like: "To think that would've been Kai". And then I saw those poll results. And now I'm here.

If you read to the end just know that I love you (/p) and I hope you have the best day / week / month / year / life ever.
