I am NEVER getting over how they animated Kai’s face in the first episode of season 15 Crystallized, specifically when dealing with Jay.

Because thats one of their first proper interactions in over a year since they almost beat each other black and blue after Nya’s death, because of their own opinions of each others way of mourning.

During the scene when Cole, Zane and Kai went to try and convince Jay to come help them Kai’s facial expression kept changing to show just how mixed up he felt about Jay.

He goes from being bored and unimpressed, tired of dealing with Jay’s antics to worried and compassionate because he still cares for Jay.

He watches his other friends and brothers walk away discouraged and feels disappointed himself.

BEFORE THESEEEE EXPRESSIONS. HE SWITCHES SO FAST INTO LOOKING DISAPPOINTED IN JAY AND EVEN ANGRY AT WHAT HE’S DOING.

He looks soooo mad at Jay but not in the way where he can’t believe Jay is doing this. But in a way that screams how he hates seeing someone do exactly the same thing he once did.

Kai literally saw the version of himself drinking and hurting not only himself but others as he grieved in his own harmful way inside Jay and he hated it. He hated seeing his past in someone he genuinely cared about, and he’s disappointed that after all these years Jay somehow became exactly what he once was when Kai himself grew above it.

Edit: I was wrong guys they didn’t fight before they split up for a year but after when they got together again, so you can actually take this as subtle hinting at what was gonna happen between them and how much this was straining their relationship.

Their different relationships with Nya and different forms of mourning butt heads over and over again, and as much as Kai had gotten a better control of his emotions, he wasn’t used to a Jay who had an even looser hold on his negative ones. Kai was so sick and tired and concerned for Jay with all the added pressure and Jay was so stubborn and hurt and confused with everything that they, two of the most vocally emotional characters, let it out on each other.

Specifically because they, relationship wise as her fiancee and brother, were the closest to Nya. They couldn’t understand why the other was behaving the way they were. Jay believed that Kai, as her older brother and the ones who practically raised her, should be just as big a mess than he is because he knew Nya longer. Kai, who knows Nya far too well, knows she’d probably throw him off a boat and make him swim home if he became as big of a mess again as he was when Zane died.

Aughhh i love analysing these two’s reactions

still supremely disappointed that Jiang Cheng did NOT have a sexy torture dungeon. What a sad miserable time!

All the antis promised me he'd have a super sexy torture dungeon where he tortures poor innocent demonic cultivators to death, and I gotta say, this was a disappointing find to discover there was no torture dungeon.

Or dungeon at all.

drawing her with straight hair just healed me i think

[id: three images with digital drawings of nya from ninjago. on the first image there is a colored drawing of her from the thighs up. she is standing with one hand on her hip and the other holding her trident in front of her casually. she is wearing a gray tank top and her maroon gi is tied around her waist. she is looking at something straight on, with her chin tilted down and a serious look in her face. next to that there is a headshot of her with short hair in a bowl cut. she is frowning and looking to the side.

the second image has three doodles. the first one is a headshot of her turned to the right but looking left. she is smiling, her eyes squinted slightly, and she has one brow raised. she is drawn with with her hair in a high ponytail, a chunk of hair falling off the ponytail and onto her neck and her bangs messy on her forehead. next to that theres a doodle of her with her head tilted up and to the side as she smiles wide, her eyes squinting. she is facing the left but is looking at something over her shoulder. the last drawing is of her with short hair. she is drawn from the waist up, she is wearing a tank top and her arms crossed; she is frowning as if judging someone.

the last image has three headshots, two of nya and one of kai from ninjago. the first one is a side profile headshot of nya turned to the left. she is drawn with east asian features, mostly her nose and she is drawn with her bangs messy, her hair in a high ponytail except for some strands that stay on her neck. below that theres the other two headshots. these are drawn sude by side and facing the viewer completely. kai is on the left and nya on the right. they are drawn with similar features, nose and eyes, and they are both drawn with neutral expressions with their eyes looking towards the right./ end id]

What gives... What gives you the right not to tell me all of those things? You said you would be my subordinate when I became the clan leader. You said you would support me for your entire life. You said you would never betray me. You said you would never betray the Jiang Clan. You said so yourself...

[kindaasrikal]

I’ve talked about Kai and Morro’s similarities AND differences before, but here’s my very simple take on the whole wanting to be the green ninja thing they both desired.

Because that, despite seeming like a similarity at first, ended up being one of their most important differences.

Simply because Kai wanted to be the green ninja to protect, and Morro wanted to be the green ninja to survive.

No matter how many similarities people may draw up between the two, their differences will always be much stronger driving force between them. Mainly because all those differences stem off from the existence of Nya.

The similarities between Kai and Morro are so obvious as they both grew up as orphans, both having large egos and even larger prides, and have huge temperaments. They both desired power and they both needed respect from others.

With these similarities, you’d think the likeliness of Kai becoming just like Morro would be must larger. But it isn’t. It really isn’t bro.

And, stating it again, it’s solely because of the existence of Nya.

I’m pretty sure I’ve actually talked about this part before, but because of the existence of Nya in Kai’s life he learnt the need to protect more than the need to survive, unlike Morro. They both had nothing to their name, but only one had no one. Nya taught Kai the need to protect those who are too weak to do the same for themselves (Nya then also taught him that those who were once weak can very quickly become strong), and Nya taught Kai the importance of caring for others.

Nya ensured that Kai would never fall down the path of hate and greed because he had someone else to look out for, not just himself. Not like Morro, who had to quickly learn that if he didn’t look out for himself, it’ll be his undoing. He didn’t have, and then couldn’t afford, to care for others. He couldn’t take that risk. Didn’t want to. And so he never learnt the importance of protecting others when you have the ability too, and he never learnt how to love or care for others either.

Which is what affected their desires for the green gi so much.

Kai wanted the green gi so he would no longer be too weak to protect those he cared for. He no longer just had Nya, who was a lot more capable now, but he also had the other ninja and Wu. And slowly, he would have Lloyd too. He had people he needed to protect at all costs, and he had a duty to protect his entire planet from threats too. That’s why Kai wanted the green gi.

Morro needed the green gi to survive. He needed the green gi to prove to others that that useless street rat was capable of something and that he wasn’t one to mess around with. Morro knew that he had to survive in every situation he was thrown into. He needed that gi and that title and that power and that respect so people would be too scared of him. Because when you have power and respect, less people are likely to try mess with you.

Kai has the need to protect flowing in his damn veins. It’s quite literally one of the reasons he exists.

Morro has always wanted to survive no matter what life threw at him. It’s one of the reasons he ended up going so far to achieve what he wanted.

Which is why i also think Kai would wonder what would’ve happened to him if he didn’t have Nya, and knows he would’ve been exactly like Morro.
