Ninjago's chosen medium of Lego people means that all characters' ethnicities are up for debate, if not entirely, then at least partially, so all non-visually fantasy races have this weirdly neutral equality about them which makes them kinda same-y, but also allowing you to project onto them whatever you want.
And I find it very ammusing that, despite all that, and despite their both being very standard human minifigs, no matter what you do Lloykita is an interracial relationship. Just no getting around that one.
100% youre right. Expanding on that it makes me so sad that the ninjago fandom misses out on the Formling lore they could create. Whats their culture like? Mythology? Traditions? Religion?. Like. Come on people. The foundation is there the Formlings are amazing. Also the potential of lloykita, showing Lloyd the culture and embracing him in traditions…so much opportunities.
