I admit, as much as I like her, Misako's character is badly written. From the early season (pre s8 and onwards) there are some scenes of her I couldn't stand, mostly the wusako scenes. So, here is a list of what I would change to her character if *I* wrote her, or/also her relationship with Garmadon, Wu, and Lloyd. This only consists of her in s1-7. This is NOT Misako slander btw
would send Lloyd occasional letters, hinting that his mother is somewhere out there.
she would be shown looking worried when she found out her son had been kicked out from school and is now somewhere out there.
Missing posters of him are seen in the backgrounds. Clearly put up by Misako.
She would still meet Lloyd the same way, she noticed he grew older and grew concerned, unlike the original, where she just brushed it off.
Lloyd wouldn't forgive her that easily, and she knew she had to work for his forgiveness. And so, she did. He also wouldn't call her mom that easily. Yes, she's his mother, but he has the right to be mad.
Wusako would be one-sided, with Wu still having romantic feelings towards her while Misako still sees him as one of her closest friends.
In the island of darkness, Lloyd and Misako will have a little moment. Lloyd is still mad that she left him at Darkly's of all places.
Misako told him the truth. There, she explained taking care of him while researching everything about the green ninja, the island of darkness, and how she could prevent him from having that destiny. Her white hair came from stress, not her growing old.
Lloyd understood her, though not fully forgiving her, but was willing to give her a chance.
Misako still loves Garmadon whether or not he's human or an oni. That's why she's not reciprocating Wu's feelings even if he was a better option in other people's eyes.
Her and Garmadon would have small, romantic scenes together. Not just her being sidelined again.
She would still give Nya the advice of "listen to what her heart wants" or something like that. But, again, she won't say that she was in that situation before because, again, she never liked wu that way.
Her relationship with Lloyd improves slightly. He's starting to become more affectionate with her and is able to let his guard down.
When the letter thing was revealed, she didn't feel betrayed, but slightly doubted if their relationship was based on manipulation or if he actually loves her. Before he went, she confronted him. Garmadon admits to it, but still speaks his love for her and he wishes their faith would be different. (I love doomed Garmasako, I need them back.)
Her grief would be shown by the fact that she lost her husband once more, and that their family was once again incomplete.
But she stayed strong, for her son, and for her husband.
Her and Lloyd will, again, have another heart-to-heart conversation.
First to notice Lloyd acting off, and not himself. Like, that's her son, she literally birthed, of course she would know if something's wrong.
She would also have a small redemption arc like Garmadon after his good side was revived.
It would still be the same, but without romantic wusako. (I'm pretty sure you guys can already tell I don't like that ship.)
By this time, Lloyd had fully forgiven her and had started calling her mom.
It's literally not that hard to give a female character a proper redemption arc. Also, these are just surface level changes.
