Yo! Welcome to my ninjago side blog

You can call me mory or memory idrc (he / him). I am an adult.

Not currently fixating on ninjago atm but genuinely I can feel it coming back yknow? It's marinating, waiting for the perfect opportunity to take complete control over my life lmao. So while I wait for the inevitable, here's a little post about me:

Not to flex but I've been watching since pilots teehee. Way back when we had to record it (thank god for on demand television). Tragically because of this, I did not know for several months that Zane hadn't been killed off in season 3 because our dvr cut out the last literal 30 seconds of that episode. I was an unwell child for weeks.

Favourite character is....to no one's surprise, Zane. He's just like me fr. Favourite season is Rebooted (wow. shocker.) and season 5 (augh tragic villain). I havent watched the 'new' seasons enough to have an opinion yet </3

I enjoy making fanart (and not to be an old sap, but I remember when there genuinely wasn't much fanart of Ninjago...and now there's literal thousands of awesome artworks, I love watching a fandom grow up, everyone's so talented).

Be prepared to see loads of posts come,... December is my guess. That's when I plan on finally watching DR (and when I'm finally released from the chains that are finals) <3

Some of my art wahoo vv

Fun fact my main tumblr was originally created to post about ninjago (now I post pretty much just hermitcraft LOL) and recommended accounts for other people to follow based on my profile, after literal years of not posting ninjago, are still based on that (tragic).

He's so stupid I love him

This is exactly how that scene went, trust.

Ice is such a crazy element... I think about it so much might as well ramble incomprehensibly about it here...

I have the headcannon that Zane gets his "6th sense" from his element. It explains why in possession they can all see their futures in the ice walls of the caves of despair, ice has future seeing properties or whatever. It probably also explains why the previous ice elemental knew to go to the birchwood forest to give his powers to Zane. I also headcannon that his power source is from his element. Since we never got a proper explanation for it. Both things Kind of explain why Dr. Julien said Zane was acting "stranger than usual" after the previous ice elemental visited.

But like, headcannons aside, the whole season 11 ice chapter revealed that ice can do some crazy stuff. like vex's ice-ipad that could spy on people, or the fact that it can have similar properties to vengestone. Like what the helllll why can ice do so much

When did we make Zane a tech guy. Seriously. When did we decide Zane in particular would be good at tech. That's so stupid. We've got too many goddamn tech people in this show. Obviously everyone on the team has some degree of tech knowledge considering how often they might have to repair something in their line of work, but labeling Zane as one of "the tech guys" has never sat right with me. Let Jay, Nya and Pixal do their thing. And Sora.

i cannot find dr s2 part 2 online /anywhere/ and it's killing me :(

[memory-switch]

til i can't talk to anyone in person about ninjago because if you mention it to me my brain WILL shut down out of excitement

[the-golden-heart]

some screenshots of Arrakore because I'm totally normal about him

[memory-switch]

thinking about how i was telling one of my uni friends a few months ago about ninjago and how zane's my favourite and how it was such an important show to me, n i got to the bit where i had to explain that zane's a robot and he goes "that's so weirddddd!"

and im like. okay one. now i feel weird about it. and two. that is the whole point. i was a weird kid, who felt weird and different from everyone else. zane was literally not even human (and like, figuring out why he was different was what finally opened him up to his powers) so no wonder the (gender)queer kid latched onto him for like, a literal decade??

Jay becomes a snake. Zane is a nindroid. Nya merged with the ocean. Lloyd becomes an oni. Cole becomes a ghost.

Every single ninja has become a ‘monster’/an inhuman being physically.

Kai is only one who hasn’t.

Instead, in Ninjago Monstrosity, he will become a monster mentally. Losing all sense of self as he hopes desperately for survival. For the feeling of love to fill his heart once more.

Kai is shown to be actively clinging to his humanity and sanity in the trailer, as his voice slowly shifts to a rougher, tireder tone. He is losing himself in a way none of the others ever have, because physically he is human. There is no supernatural force making him become something he isn’t, he isn’t becoming something he already was (at least, he hopes). His blood isn’t pushing him to follow instincts.

The only way Kai could become a monster in the land he is in, is through himself.

Chapter 2 of Winter Storm is up! Check it out if you're interested :)

The order in which I think the ninja will die because let’s all be sad

First to go: Kai. Hands down. No questions asked.

Next to go: Cole.

Next!! I was torn between Nya and Jay, but I’m cautiously saying Nya because Jay is a cockroach.

Next is Jay!! Yk that thing when people lose their partner they’ve spent decades with and end up passing shortly after? Yeah

Next we have Lloyd. The Oni/dragon blood results in him outliving almost everyone by a wide margin. It’s definitely rough on him. I think he’d only live to 300-500 instead of 1000+ though because he’s half human.

And in an ironic twist of fate, the one who dies the most lives the longest because Zane is immortal. He’ll keep coming back. He’ll find a way to return, no matter what. Built to protect for all eternity
