Ultra Agents does not exist in Ninjago, Paleman and Tox's appearances were the only thing from Ultra Agents that ever made it in, and that's a fact. Their names are different from their UA counterparts, and their backstories are completely different with zero references, and outright denial, of the UA version. As for "realms", you're really misusing the term. There are 16 Realms that exist either alongside or including Ninjago, currently consisting of Ninjago itself, the Cloud Kingdom, the Dark Realm, the (now destroyed) Cursed Realm and Chima. The ten that remain are unknown we'll find out about soon enough. As I was saying though, to call TLM a realm (even in quotation marks) is blatantly missing the point of what a realm is to NINJAGO's canon. TLM exists so far completely outside of NINJAGO, the only real shared theme between the two is Lloyd showing up, and that was as canon to NINJAGO as TLM's BIONICLE reference was to BIONICLE.

Personally seeing Chima sharing the same overall universe with NINJAGO was too much. NINJAGO's lore is just going to feel cheap and less true to itself if they continuously introduce other themes in the mix. At the end of the day, there isn't really any point to making other themes part of NINJAGO's canon, especially when NINJAGO outlives them (most notably in the case of Clutch Powers).

Agree. Dimensions and TLM things would better be called "other canons" rather than "other realms". As for UA I didn't notice that much, so not sure if UA could be connect with Ninjago in a clear order (suppose that Tox had ever been to Astor City).

Just discussing the general LEGO worlds, Chima, BIONICLES and Elves are obviously not in the same "realm" with other themes based on our daily life, I think that makes sense and is not too much.

However, yet like otheres' said, the theory of realms might vary in different themes and they don't count all current LEGO themes. Perhaps Elves would say there are twenty worlds for different spirits and Ninjago isn't even part of them. :p.

Wonder how realms be used in further series. Perhaps future enemies would come from other realms to Ninjago so that they have to go across multiple realms.

It's heavily implied season 6 will have something to do with the other realms, but so far from what little we've seen I'm not sure how much of a connection we'll see. There's not enough information at this point to make an accurate enough guess.

I think so to. My guess would be, since the new adversaries will be sky-pirates, that the ninja will re-visit Cloud kingdom.

Another question regarding the next season... Will Sensei actually encounter the husky in the Master Wu dragon set? It looks like it's in Sensei's colors as well, And I think it would be an awesome addition.

Probably not. Quite a fair bit of stuff in the sets didn't make any kind of appearance this season, which is a real shame because there was plenty of awesome stuff. I'm not sure if even the Morro Dragon made much of an appearance, it just seemed to disappear after Morro learned Airjitzu.

Another Ninjago Filler

Bad Chair Day

Now I wonder what other Chair puns they could do for Fillers

All's Chair in love and war comes to mind

As for what Aanchir said

I don't think the cursed realm is destroyed. Just trapped at the bottom of the ocean. The Preeminent didn't seem to dissolve when Nya shoved her down with a tidal wave. It also gives Garmadon a way to come back. If the inside of the Preeminent hasn't been flooded from water entering her.

As someone who wants to go into the voice acting field, I'm above ecstatic to see this featurette pop up on my feed!

Had to give it a Like within the first 30 seconds. Seeing Mark Oliver's face while performing the "Garmadon laugh" and the rest of them while performing... more entertaining than quite a few episodes of NINJAGO :tongue:

That video was so strange and yet so cool to see the actual voice actors! I agree, the Garmadon Laugh was hilarious and great to see the real voice actor perform it.

Anyway, there's another behind the scenes vid, I hope this is going to be ongoing!

Edit: after actually watching the vid, it seems to have been released on (someone's random) YouTube channel a few years ago. Does this mean they're publishing the DVD extras? Most likely, given the titles of the videos.

This was really fun to watch!

Dan and Kevin Hageman just confirmed on Twitter that Shadow of Ronin is, in fact, canon. :ugh:

EDIT: They corrected themselves! Realm of Shadows is canon, not Shadow of Ronin :classic: It raises its own set of questions, though. So that means:

Anyone who died in the Preeminent didn't actually die. Well, cool to know Garmadon is potentially back, please don't kill him again Hageman brothers.

Now that is really some awesome news! Looking forward to next season! :sweet:

I saw that earlier, but Zane is Yellow again in Realm of Shadows...Also I want a set with the Ying Yang Dragon and the ninja suits that are similar to year one with a year one with a year five flair....sorry Sets hopes. I just hope the new season they can rectify some of these holes.

The Hageman brothers hinted over on Twitter that Clouse broke out of the Preeminent, rather than escaping after it died. Is this the new "Ask Greg?"? :tongue:

Apologies for the double-post (it's been two weeks since the last post, give me a break), and a thanks in advance to NinjaJayNuva for pointing it out. A recent tweet by the Hageman brothers questioned whether or not Jay's last name truly is Walker.

Well, I'm guessing that Jay was adopted by Ed and Edna, and his true parents are the pirates we're seeing. However, this conflicts with the repetitive "born in a junkyard" dialogue, but frankly I wouldn't be surprised if that's either been overlooked or ignored. If it allows for an awesome twist in season 6, I'm all for the retconning of it. What do you guys think?

I'm not for retconning Jay's family, as Ed and Edna are always a joy when they show up. It's kinda odd too, as not only does it list Ed and Edna as having the last name "Walker," but Lego actually named one of Jay's vehicles after his full name as well! You can't really retcon it at the point that happens.

Either that, or they had to change their names to hide and escape. Seriously, dormant electric powers + working in a junkyard = unavoidable catastrophe. Even if it was just that they had to hide from some pirates who they used to work for as mechanics or something.

Jay Walker is such a joke/fake name that I can see this as completely possible...
