Uniquely Violent Things I’ve Seen in Dragons Rising Season 2
- “Destroy this world and everything in it.” “What about the people?” “I said everything.”
- Lloyd’s constant vision-based panic attacks/confirmed PTSD
- Onscreen dragon matriarch death
- Arin passing out after getting thrown out of the Bounty and waking up midair
- The constant times they say “die” and “kill”
- Transphobia allegories with Bonzle being trapped in a box and turned back into a spell
- Sora and Nya sobbing in each others arms after Kai gets trapped in a prison forever
- The WHOLE blood moon ritual; wolf masks, drums, deadly spinjitzu…

Thoughts on the teaser
Tumblr media
Explorer's Club looking mf
Tumblr media
Hey why the fuck is that one guy glowing white? Is that the guy who was trying to get through the portal when it closed? So he's stuck between the two worlds? Shit
Also why's he sitting in a chair while the others are standing very formally? Leader of the Forbidden Five?
Tumblr media
I know they're all happy and don't know what's coming for them in this shot, but look at Arin
Tumblr media
I'm assuming this is before he learns he won't be able to compete.
Also, Lloyd in the new master fit!
Tumblr media
Can't tell one hundred percent, but that looks like the Matriarch without her crown. For some reason she's in the Kingdom of Madness (might be because she decided to move her herd in s1 ep2 and thought this was a safe place). And why does she look like she might be dying? Or at least not in a good condition. (Assuming this'll be in the episode 11)
Tumblr media
Oh fuck Wyldfyre's face. Whatever happened can't be good. But I'm not sure if it has to do with Cinder having heat or some other event. Mainly because Wyldfyre very much is controlling heat right now.
Tumblr media
Also, nice design on the back of her suit
Tumblr media
WAKE UP NEW SORA WEAPON
(If I had a nickel for everytime a character with tech powers had a tech staff as their weapon I'd have two nickels. Which isn't a lot but it's weird that it happened twice) (Yes I'm referencing Donnie from ROTTMNT)
Tumblr media
Roby with the selfie wand! Not what I expected but I'm here for it.
And he seems to be having them doing a wave thing, as when he passes in front of the crowd they lift their arms up a bit and then put them back down.
Tumblr media
I have no idea why they might be in the Administration, but I guess they are. (Also looks like this will be Episode 11)
Tumblr media
Cinder in his sick ass outfit. Haven't even seen the whole thing and I can already confirm the minifigure does NOT do it justice at all.
Tumblr media
Also (like everyone else) wondering how the hell he has Heat. Stole it from Wyldfyre using some weird Shatterspin magic? Maybe Jordana stole it using her dark magic for him? Or some other Tournament related thing that gave him said ability to take her powers.
Or maybe a new master of Amber? But 1) don't think the writers are going to just kill Skylor like that and 2) There's no way he would've been able to hold Ash's power for that long, even without broken Amber powers like Skylor likely did past Season 9
Tumblr media
That's actually a really small dragon.
Tumblr media
And Cole
Tumblr media
No idea when this'll be (or who Lloyd's even fighting) but based on his outfit and the time of day, this is not one of the actual Tournament battles.
Maybe during these episodes in the actual battles Lloyd will wear the Tournament outfit, and then in scenes that are not Tournament events, he'll be wearing the master outfit. Which would put this scene at pretty much any point in the season except for Episode 11. And likely episode 20. Maybe
Or Lloyd will be wearing this outfit only at the beginning of the Tournament (likely only Episodes 12 and maybe 13) and then will wear the Tournament suit the rest of the season
Tumblr media
WHAT DID JIRO AND ZANTH DO TO THEM TOT
They don't seem to have any people on their back?
Maybe it's illegal in the Tournament to use dragons? Or the guard dudes are just being bullies.
Tumblr media
And why's that guy's gun got a clock on it
Tumblr media
Ha. They deserved that for being mean to the dragons
Tumblr media Tumblr media
So did that guy
Tumblr media
Also there's some of the ninja. Can't tell who all of them are, but there is Wyldfyre for sure, and it looks like Maybe Zane and Geo? As well as whoever's wearing the brown color? I was going to guess Arin but the grapple makes it seem like it can't be him, so maybe Cole?
Maybe this is them trying to get to the Tournament and the Guard dudes intercept them
Tumblr media
So it looks like those might be spectator outfits...
Also, Geo supporting his man!!!!! We love Geo! Look at his happy face!!!!
Tumblr media
Wouldn't really explain why some of the apparent competitors are wearing them though
Tumblr media
I'm thinking this may be the scene where Cinder somehow gets Wyldfyre's power. And/or Wyldfyre isn't having a fun time because this looks eerily similar to the fight in Episode 2 that resulting in her leg being shattered
Tumblr media
Yeah. Very similar.
And Cinder's using his Shatterspin powers in this fight too. Shit
Tumblr media
And he's smiling as usual too...
Except his eyes aren't red this time. Possibly he completely shattered his soul (as he said he was willing to do in Part 1's finale) and no longer needs the gong to access the Shatterspin powers?
Tumblr media
Better look at the tech staff. I like it.
Though thinking about it now it might be specifically for this obstacle course thing Sora's been doing.
Tumblr media
Looks like that might be Heatwave catching Lloyd? (Based on the claws and the fact that he caught Lloyd using his tail rather than some possibly more harmful or violent way such as the claws or mouth)
Also looks like this'll be episode 11. Maybe episode 12 prior to getting to the Tournament.
Tumblr media
Saw someone else ask why the Source Dragon of Motion is glowing over the Monastery and honestly I have the same question.
Maybe this is supposed to be the end of Episode 20 after they free her?
Or earlier on in the season where she might be telling them to go to the Tournament of the Sources (as she and the others might be scared of Ras being able to get to them if his team wins the Tournament)
Also, that sure is a way to end a teaser /pos
Also, looking at the fact that it'll be October rather than earlier like I thought it would be, I'm thinking the date of release might be the 24th if following the previous patterns of release dates (Thursdays and multiples/factors of 4). But at the same time that feels very late, so it might actually be an earlier week like that of the 10th. Which will break the multiples/factors of 4 pattern, but it could happen.
Also, we did not see Nokt at all during this teaser, which is kinda odd. Maybe Ras is waiting until the right moment to use him in the Tournament?

Something I REALLY like about the Matriarch's theme is that heavy female choir they use... while the female choir is a big part of the First Realm Dragon Theme, it's VERY prevalent w/ the Matriarch's two appearences. I think it really helps to underscore her massive presence and power over the scenes she's in, the first one big, imposing, powerful, while the second almost feels like a display of sorrow, she's now small, weak, dying...

one thing I'm pretty disappointed about in the marketing of s2p2 is the spoiling of the matriarch's death. that part was extremely shocking, tragic and unexpected and honestly would've been much better to not to be revealed so early

So I love Ninjago: Dragons Rising and I wanted to draw the Matriarch! I’m probably gonna draw more of them in the future too.

this also sheds a whole new light on the life/motion connection I’ve touched on before:
Since the tribal arc dragons for Egalt and Rontu fell under the powers of the Life and Motion Source Dragons, it makes sense why they would be the ones to develop Rising Dragon, a technique based on motion and connected to one’s life.
Also totally agree that Nokt and Rox targeted those dragons personally, although idk if they knew about Riyu’s matriarch (or even cared). If Rox could access Jordana’s memories, she might have been aware of the existence of Riyu’s matriarch (Ras could have told her at least that part of the plan while walking to the Shadow Dojo?)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Oh man, Egalt and Rontu lost leaders there, and neither might not even know. That's gotta hurt a shit load.. but it also gives story ideas
It's likely Nokt and Rox targeted them first out of sheer spite, with Lupine(Riyu's Matriarch) being another one specifically targeted

So when Rapton sees the Matriarch, he says:
"I've never seen a dragon that big"
Meaning this man had no clue that there was a Source Dragon just fucking imprisoned under Imperium for years

The death of all Ninjago fic writers: the goddamn lore
I know that this wouldn't work because it literally prevents the use of elemental powers, but could you imagine if Cole could control vengestone? That would be crazy
