Even MORE Episode Descriptions...

I don't think so either Zane

Yes I am in love with this thought process guys

For the longest time I've been like "huh, it's kinda weird how Zane has these visions and it's never elaborated on, it's just a cute little quirk." I just feel like that's something that would've been explained by now??? But then I realized, maybe that's just part of him being the master of ice? Like, Cole has super strength, Jay had super speed in the pilots. Also there were the future reflections in the Ice Labyrinth? The place full of ice that's also connected to the FSM showed people their futures??? So maybe that's just what the element of ice does. (Now why ice and the future...idk? Like I see the connection that rocks are strong/you need strength to move rocks, and lightning is fast, but ice and the future??? Because ice can be reflective and it can save things for the future? Maybe???)

But then this raises the question: what's Kai's extra little power? If Cole has super strength, and Jay has (forgotten) super speed, and Zane has prophetic visions, what does Kai get?

all the ninja have unique characteristics and they are so individually unique and reflect their nature

for example,

kai’s smile ( + dimples <33333 ) is bright, fearless, and contagious, his eyes radiate love and warmth, his laugh energetic and filled with enthusiasm

jay’s freckles remind you of stars, his smiles are timid yet adorable, his laugh loud and silly

cole’s hugs make you feel at home, eyes embedded in admiration and protection, his laugh is strong and smile is gentle yet valiant

lloyds laugh is quite mellow, voice smooth and soft, eyes curious yet immensely fond

zane’s words are a striving source of comfort, eyes tender, voice calm and patient, smile polite yet encouraging

nyas eyes remind you of calming waves against a shoreline (or when she’s mad, the complete opposite), voice firm and assertive, smile bold and daring

kai and lloyd

HI IM HERE TO REMIND YOU OF THIS SCENE:

Kai and cole look at each other with determined as hell looks , and come to a conclusion.

now, let me remind you this isn’t just any simple conclusion. it’s a conclusion to sacrifice themselves for a mission on a crazy video game land they don’t even know will work

there are two ways trust is working here behind the scenes:

1: the trust between kai and cole

2: and the trust they have in the team

now the first one is so much more significant because

1)all the ninja had sacrificed themselves and trusted the team so the second way isn’t unique. every ninja has immense trust in their team and it’s shown throughout each of their important sacrifices

2) the first one reason, that’s what made this scene more unique then some other scenes (i am NOT saying more important, just more UNIQUE. unique does not mean something is better than the other. It just means there were different circumstances. don’t attack me) since it shows two characters simply nodding and having the same goal, the exact same strategy/idea in mind because remember kai and cole proceeded with their actions and it was like the other knew exactly what the other was going to do from which car the other would bring down to where they planned to explode/crash.

it also shows the amount, the IMMENSE AMOUNT of belief/trust kai and cole have in EACHOTHER. I mean, they didn’t even need to say anything. they just know. this is the main reason why I loved this scene SO much: it was a non-communicated-just-one- look sacrifice that was executed perfectly.

Vincent Tong my beloved

i watched the ninja movie last night

Kai’s friendship with the other ninja mean so much to me

Like… the idea that Kai, someone who’s been forced to be an adult as a kid for as long as he can remember, isolated from other kids his age and never being able to from friendships, being able to find new friends in people who are willing to look past his flaws and appreciate him for who he is Makes me want to cry.

I don’t care how much the show wants to paint it as a flaw, Kai being encouraged by the others to let go of the responsibilities that prevented him from being a kid and enjoy life without the stress of work or taking care of Nya is so beautiful and sweet and it’s just UGH.

Kai deserves to be a kid! He deserves a childhood as much as Lloyd or Zane do! He sacrificed everything to make sure Nya got a somewhat normal one and I think it would be amazing if the others gave him that same opportunity even if he’s older now.
