Ninjago: Masters Of Spinjitsu TV Show Thread

[Mandate]

Yes. They are mainly about Shadow of Ronin.

I think that's Clouse's Anaconda pet.

Clouse's pet isn't that big, and it most certainly isn't entombed in a statue.

Also, why the heck does Pythor want to awaken another giant snake?]

I think he isn't so stupid... After time, when The Great Devourer ate him, he don't want be eaten second time, do he?)

The description of the Mobile Ninja DB X gives it away. Plus, none of the set names from the Summer wave sound like they share the same plot, no snake names or anything. Also, "airjitzu"

I don't know, the fact the the Overlord's gold armor still exists, gives room for another season, I hope this is the last season we see the snakes as a driving point for the show...I'm a little snaked out...Anywho if we do see a new season after the current one, we probably won't see it until 2016, having Shadows of Ronin fill the gap from June to 2016. Pure speculation. Then have a season fill the beginning of 2016, until September when the Ninjago Movie comes out.

[PenPlays]

Yes. They are mainly about Shadow of Ronin.

What? The Summer Wave of sets? I'm afraid that there is only one that clearly states that it is a Shadow of Ronin set.

Let me remind you that the Ronin story will not be told by the TV show. It is an exclusive story for the video game. Of course, that doesn't stop Ronin for showing up for the tournament. We also know that, in the TV show, we will have the return of Destiny's Bounty, not to mention that some translations of the sets could be a bit blurred due to regional differences. As far as we know, that Titan mech could very well be "Titanium Mech." Google isn't exactly the most accurate of translators.

[Cagast]

I know that not all of sets are Shadow of Ronin. Titan mech IS Titanium mech because it was same with Titanium Dragon. And yes, I know Shadow of Ronin isn't about TV show, but JayWalker said this current season is one wave season. Anyway, this belongs to Ninjago 2015 thread.

You forgot the Destiny's Bounty. Wu said they will rebuild it and it will probably do that in the end of the season. We get bounty in the summer wave. I think only two sets are Anacondrai season based and others are Shadow of Ronin.

Are you sure he forgot it? Do the initials DB from DB X ring a bell?

No. This year is likely to be structured as Chima's show was last year, which was more or less an advancement of the concept NINJAGO introduced in 2012. We may very well see 2 to 3 seasons this year, and if the history of NINJAGO and Chima's method of introducing discontinuation continues, the NINJAGO movie is going to replace the regular line (what a waste).

Titan mech IS Titanium mech because it was same with Titanium Dragon.

That's a big assumption to make.

Anyway, this belongs to Ninjago 2015 thread.

Not exactly, the discussion of how many sets belong to a particular substory still counts as speculation on the plot (we really need to change the name of this thread).

...I did not realize that those two share the same initials (I hadn't forgotten about the Destiny's Bounty, though). That's really interesting, actually.

The key word is that Nya is rebuilding it. In LEGO themes, rebuilding rarely is the same model twice...

Of course, the Jole Minifigure does not look like Jole from the TV show. More than likely, Nya builds him, perhaps because Jay and Cole left her and the team before the start of "The Invitation".

Actually, it's Sensei Wu and Nya. But the DB X isn't the Destiny's Bounty. I believe the word Nya used was "restore". DB X could stand for anything, really. X for Nya's alter-ego, maybe Dragon Base? NINJAGO is no newcomer to having weird initials for titles.

He said that it might. The truth is, none of us will really know until the Toy Fair comes along.

If I may point out, though, Star Wars Rebels is a sub-series of Star Wars. It coincides with the release of sets from the 6 movies themselves. Ninjago can run the same way and can follow the sub-series system as well (i.e. one or two Shadow of Ronin sets among multiple Tournament of Elements sets).

Can you elaborate on what you mean about this "discontinuation method?" I don't really understand.

Does it have something to do with piling two season worth of a show into one year, but have the second of the two season's sets trickle into the next year? That doesn't exactly mean that the series is going to discontinue. Sure it's a common trait between the original discontinuations of the two, but that really doesn't mean that the theme is, in fact, finished. We would have to have a couple themes that would have (successfully) discontinued in the same way in order for it to be considered as a possibility.

Hence why I said "if this method of discontinuation continues".

I just realized that Skylor has the potential to gain Golden Power.

I don't think we're gonna see a second season until maybe september or October, just because we don't have a line to go with it. I doubt we'll see a season ever without an ajointing line.

[Mandate]

That's because you're basing that concept on the idea that we're not done with the Anacondrai arc.

[LegendsOfNinjago]

No I'm not, I believe this season will co-inside with current line, and then we won't have anymore snakes (for abwhile at least) if we get another season, later this year it will not be partvof this current wave of sets or this current season.

[DuckBricks]

Let me remind you that the Ronin story will not be told by the TV show.

Did it explicitly state that the Ronin story is game only?

EDIT:

Nevermind, "Unlike this past year’s Lego Ninjago Nindroids game, this new entry in the series is not based on the ongoing Lego Ninjago: Masters of Spinjitzu TV show."

That's disappointing, I think the game had a good storyline, and Ronin looks like a much better villain than Chen.

Btw, is there going to be a new episode tomorrow?

There has actually been multiple statements about where SoR takes place regarding the TV show. By the looks of it, Shadow of Ronin takes place in the TV world, it just doesn't directly tie into it.

There will not be any new episodes until January 17th, or so says the uploader of YouTube versions.

Ah, yes. I see that now. Wonder why....

What I have been saying is that we're getting plot "waves" again, an entire plot wrapped into a single, manageable wave. So please explain what you mean when you say you doubt we'll see another season until October/September (when one part of the world always gets the new sets by July) and then say that that's not what you're saying.

[Cagast]

But this season, unlike Rebooted has more than 8 episodes. I think it might have 13, but nothing is confirmed. I believe Shadow of Ronin wave is everything we get in the summer, and that it's set between some two seasons in TV series, possibly after Island of Darkness and before Rebooted because description of the game says "untold story". I hoped it was something that happened before the whole Ninjago plot (Sensei Wu before he was sensei = Master Wu = Master Wu Dragon) but Dareth is here, and it means it's something newer. I still think two of sets are Anacondrai season based, and others are Shadow of Ronin, and I will think same until we see offical pictures.

I just realized that Skylor has the potential to gain Golden Power.

I doubt she can. Her body is probably too weak to have Golden Power. One is Golden Ninja - Lloyd, and whoever touches Golden Armor, explodes. I don't even think she can gain two powers at once. Remember how Samukai died.

Btw, is there going to be a new episode tomorrow?

No, next episode is January 17th.

No. LEGO isn't going to pump out an entire wave based off of a 2nd rate game made solely for Nintendo platforms. We didn't see the same with City, we won't be seeing it here. Period.

Not necessarily. The Golden Armor is made from the Golden Weapons, the Overlord was never capable of using Lloyd's Golden Power for anything. We don't fully know how Golden Power, or Skylor's copy+paste abilties, works.

[Mr Greeble]

What if the ninjago movie in 2016 is about ronin...?

[Mandate]

The "NINJAGO Movie" is going to be a slapstick comedy based off of the LEGO Movie.

If you really want my opinion, it's a stupid idea for every reason you can think of. It's a complete merging of two very separate lines, with a complete change in writing style, art style and maturity. And personally, I don't care if the movie is better than TLM, I'm jumping ship to another line once 2016 arrives.

It's also for the PS Vita. And why wouldn't we? LEGO Releases a line of Lego Ninjago, in this case Ronin, children buy the sets and don't need the video game to make a story line. Or, Children buy the game and because they like the came, they really want the sets. I agree, not having it on big platforms, is and interesting tactic, But we ARE getting Ronin sets. This summer is probably made up of both Ronin and possibly current season sets.

The reason I say we won't probaby get another season until September or October, is because like 2012, We had a new season around that time, and had the sets released later that year. Stone Army season if i'm correct.

We don't know this at all. We know nothing about the Ninjago Movie except it's in the same universe as the Lego Movie. and I'm not even sure where that's sourced...

[PenPlays]

There isn't anything that says this. The names of the Summer wave of sets do not point towards either side, so it would be very premature to assume this. I don't mind being proved wrong, though.
