Ninjago DR S2 Part 2 thoughts, spoilers ahead.
First few episodes were...rough.
- Rody was kinda annoying at first, but I grew to like him as the episodes went on. I'm glad Wildfire found someone to match her Freak. I like that he is geniunely into her too.
- I can't believe Bolobo fucking died lmao rip in piss.
Nero, Chamille and Shade cameos were nice. I like that Tox and Mr.Pale actually had dialouge AND WE FINALLY SAW WHAT MR.P LOOKS LIKE YES.
Ily Geo <3 The Goblinnnnnnnn
Zeatrix was annoying lmao I get why Beatrix hated her ass
Otherwise liked all the new elemental powers and masters introduced. [I can hear Legacyverse screaming already. Rip.]
[Elemental Master of Balance is a thing...welp. There goes the 'Riyu will become the Source Dragon of Balance' theory I suppose]
- I really hoped they would do more with Jay, not only because he's my fave but he could have been more. I think revealing his identity and making him lose his first round immediately was a mistake. Also the teams reactions to him??? Being there??? HELLO?!?! HES BEEN LOST FOR YEARS!?!?! AND YALL ARE LIKE "oh hey Jay is here."!?!? YALL ARE SUPPOSED TO BE FAMILY?!?!?!?@?@?@ BROTHERS?!?!?!?!
Istfg only Nya actually gives a shit about Jay at this point.
Sigh...at least his voice is deeper now...it was kinda getting annoying how high pitched it became over the years...
Being a Jay fan is suffering.
[Anyways, go read Lightning Pin by @taddymason for peak DR Jay content.]
- I like that Ras had no idea what was going on with Nokt and I like that The Forbidden Five, mostly Nokt, and Ras ancestors had something going on [the something was hating eachother, probably]
Kinda not buying Ras' whole 'unmerging the realms' thing though.
Also what the fuck is up with Cinder and immediately betraying Ras lmao bootlicker behavior.
I'm glad Jordana made it out and Sora realized. Well. Everything. I hope we get to see her again so she can get a proper redemption arc.
- I'm loving Arin's arc so far. He's not evil. He's morally grey at this point. I would be too if I was in his shoes. He just wants to find his parents, but he always had to put ninja business up first, but decided that enough is enough and he will find his parents, without the ninja.
I wouldn't be surprised if he and Ras try to manipulate eachother next season. It would be fun to watch. [Bonus points if Ras backstory and redemption. Pls. I want tiger dad]
Welp. This is it for now I guess, feel free to ask about my opinions on specific stuff.
7/10 Good season. Could have done much more on certain places but still a good and entertaining watch.
