My thoughts on Seabound!!! ๐๐๐ (2/4)
SPOILERS ALERT!!!
For now, nothing to complain about! We got Nya, we got MAYA AND RAY, we got GILES PANTON BACK A LEGO SHOW!!! ๐๐๐
Of course now I'm definitely curious about what the story is really about, like I'm guessing Wojira will wake up at some point so... Great Devourer all over again maybe? ๐
Idk, for now I just wanna enjoy Nya having her moment ๐ฅณ
Alright, here we go!
GENERAL THOUGHTS
New alert for reader, during the Nexo Knights period I was and still am the hugest Clay fan. Now that his voice is in this season I might scream more than necessary... keep that in mind ๐
I love the humor in this, all random but still kinda clever ๐๐ Maybe I'm biased because I love Jay but still ๐คทโโ๏ธ
I really like the design of the marine world, very cool!! ๐๐๐
I guess I'm not really seeing any big plot twist moment for now? Ninjago seasons have history of basing seasons on a "we need to prevent this event from happening but it will happen anyway", so I can see Wojira waking up no matter what ๐คทโโ๏ธ
I wonder if that will be shocking? Usually when this situation happen, someone makes a major sacrifice (Zane with the Overlord, sensei Garmaron with Chen, again sensei G with the Preeminent...). Maybe Maya? I DON'T WANT THAT ๐ญ But I am curious, everything is going nicely and I'm not sure what it will bring! ๐คฉ I'M EXCITED SO LET'S GO!!!
THE WRATH OF KALMAAR
So this is the name of Clay's new incarnation, neat! ๐
Okay really, for having a season lately the main character just can't help but be trapped by the villain: kinda Zane in the ICE Chapter, Jay in Prime Empire, Cole in Master of the Mountain... we can call it a tradition at this point ๐คทโโ๏ธ
Giant serpent, yadda yadda, I wonder if we're gonna address the Great Devourer at some point? Not mandatory, but the reference would be very cool ๐คฉ
Clay's new incarnation is a prince I- *hyperventilates in awe*
Nya playing dumb lol, I don't know if that's personal experience as she used to get kidnapped a lot in the past or she just have too many idiots in her life ๐
ALSO ANOTHER BEST GIRL'S SMIRK
NYA YOU'RE TOO MUCH ILY โค๐โค๐
Jay I love that you're so worried about Nya but maybe try NOT TO DIE? YOU'RE WITH LLOYD AND ZANE YET YOU'RE THE ONE GOING FOR THE SACRIFICE WTH?? ๐ฑ But he's worried about his cool GF I kinda get it, also he didn't do it so good...
WHAT. THE. HECK.
WHO ARE YOU OH MY FIRST SPINJITZU MASTER YOU'RE ADORABLE I WANNA KNOW EVERYTHING ABOUT YOU YOU ABSOLUTE CUTIE ๐คฉ๐คฉ๐คฉ
So Giles is doomed to voice LEGO characters with daddy issues ๐ That being not having a dad at all or having one that is... a good guy? Idk he seems chill with the surface at first glance, I wonder what's the story of this family
Maya reminds of my mom, she also mentions her work a lot and I study the same thing. But she doesn't want to brag, it gets annoying but she just wants to give me advice. It's nice to see actually ๐ Also Ray reference NEAT โคโคโค
Wow, if any child-parent couple of this show was doomed at going semi Emperor's New Groove style, I would've bet on Ed and Jay honestly ๐
Oh HECK yes I knew that with my water girls things were BOUND to get cool ๐ ... yeah I know where the door is *goes away*
JAY NO WHAT DID I TELL YOU ABOUT TRYING TO DIE STOP DOING WHAT YOU'RE DOING!!! ๐ฑ๐ฑ๐ฑ
My GOSH that scared the crap out of me ๐
Jay honey we have too many deaths in this team, you're not helping... BUT YOU POWERED AN ENTIRE SHIP BECAUSE YOU LOVE NYA AND YOU DIDN'T DIE AND I LOVE YOU SO MUCH BLUEBELL ๐๐๐
They were all so worried, I love this ninja family so freaking much ๐๐๐ Also better not tell this one to his GF ๐
And Bluebell?
Welcome to the "change eye color because of elemental power" team! WE GOT ANOTHER ONE I LOVE WHEN IT HAPPENS!!! ๐๐๐
Awww, Zane letting Jay be the captain, that was so cute of him ๐
Another great episode! Doing great so far but I still wonder if we got into the main story. Feels like there should be more, well we got time! Next one! ๐
LONG LIVE THE KING
Sooooo... that's one very telling title ๐
If we're going full Lion King on this one, I think I know where this is going ๐ต
Maya: Don't they know that metal taste terrible?!? (Again feels like Kai could say something like this ๐)
FINALLY NYA USING FREAKING WATER POWERS UNDER THE SEA!!! Thank you Maya for saying out loud what we were all thinking ๐๐
NINJA TO THE RESCUE!!!
Pff, okay, the fact that Kalmaar is all evil and cruel and then he gets startled like that, it's kind or adorable! ๐ Honestly Giles got such a deep voice, with Clay it was firm warm and reassuring, here we got plain devious and I ADORE it ๐๐๐
Maya come on don't doubt your daughter ๐
But I like her, and if she knew Nya they way we all do she wouldn't doubt that she could make it every time ๐
Yeah I was right, the king seems chill... oww I fear what's coming then ๐ณ
Okay, so Kalmaar thinks that the world should go back to be lead by them like in the past, while the king just wants peace with the surface. And as we know, no drama no season so...
Yep, saw the death coming ๐
WHOA DID NOT SEE THAT LITTLE BLAME ACT COMING KALMAAR IS SO EVIL!!!... with a glorious voice but still (Rose focus on something that is not that godlike voice, you can do it ๐ช๐ช)
THE OLD ONE TWO I LOVE THIS SO MUCH COMBO ATTACK!!! ๐โ๐โ
Awww Benthomaar is actually really cute, he's so worried about his father ๐ข And he's adopted apparently? I wanna know the story!!! ๐คฉ๐คฉ
Yep, there's the reason why Zane got a mask even though he doesn't need one, it completes his attire ๐๐๐ My gosh how I love this nindroid โ
Did... did Jay just say phooey? Dude Ducktales ended a while ago but I'm still not over it ๐ญ
I said it once before I'll say it again, Ninjago is really REALLY good at making death scenes. Like, omg, I genuinely felt sorry for them ๐ข๐ข I also really liked that the king didn't ask to be avenged, he still wanted peace and he asked his son to protect the ninja and he cried actual tears...
MY HEART WTH ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ So we're adding this to the real tears moments of the show, with Jay crying over pie, Zane with the flashback of his dad, Jay crying over Nya and Lloyd thinking the ninja are gone... my world this show is angsty ๐
Third startle for prince Kalmaar, I love the gag ๐ Oh wait, king Kalmaar ๐คทโโ๏ธ
Okay, we got a coup, the ninja running away because they got framed, Benthomaar is most likely going to join them or at least help them, I guess Wojira will come out at some point while... Kai, Ray and Cole are still playing videogames? ๐
THIS IS GETTING COOL I WONDER WHAT WILL HAPPEN NEXT AAAAHHH HECK YES THERE IS THE HYPE!!! ๐๐๐
Although I hope we get more stuff with Nya and Maya, that's what I like ๐คฉ
ESCAPE FROM MERLOPIA
I'm good at English and I can follow most of it, but the fantasy names are tricky so I didn't get before that this was the name of the place ๐
It's nice, at least it's not another Atlantis ๐คทโโ๏ธ๐คทโโ๏ธ๐คทโโ๏ธ
LLOYD I SWEAR TO YOUR GRANDPA IF YOU TRY TO DIE AGAIN ๐ฑ
NYA YOU ARE NOT A GOOD SUBSTITUTE NONE OF YOU ARE OMG ๐ฑ๐ฑ
Ah, there he is, my new son Benthomaar ๐ He is so lovable already, I know nearly nothing about him and I like his character already a lot! He could relate with all of the ninja really, but maybe with Jay the most? They were both adopted after all ๐ค๐ค
*scribble note for a fanfic for later if this doesn't come up in the season*
Alright moving on ๐
I am so happy Nya gets a season, Kelly got a great emotional range that doesn't come out often in my opinion, but with a full introspection of water goddess we are all blessed by her voice acting ๐
Gotta say, admitting that Bentho didn't have to help them to answer the usual 'Can we trust him' question is pretty reasonable, like, better than other stupid answers ๐
Also don't mind me
Just screenshotting by ship ๐โค๐โค
Somehow lately we are letting Jay do the talking and I both hate and LOVE the fact ๐๐ Plain Bluebell nonsense, heck yes that's my jam๐๐
MAYA IS SO COOL OMG ๐คฉ๐คฉ
I literally can't not laugh at the startle gag with Kalmaar ๐
LLOYD WHAT DID I JUST SAY ABOUT SELF SACRIFICING!! PLEASE IT'S NOT EVEN YOUR SEASON!! ๐ฑ๐ฑ๐ฑ๐ฑ
Aww Jay is still the Captain, nice! Wonder if it's giving him Skybound flashbacks... I hope not considering all he went through that time, poor Sparky ๐
๐
ARE THOSE LITTLE WU ROCKETS?? ๐คฏ
Can we skip a season and hang out with Pixal one time? I really wanna know how she organizes her free time to create these things ๐๐๐
THANK YOU LLOYD FOR NOT DYING ONCE AGAIN, MUCH APPRECIATED!!! ๐๐๐ My green bean needs a vacation... they all do ๐
THEY ARE
SO BEAUTIFUL ๐๐๐๐
Alright, back to the island hoping Kalmaar will not track us and follow us so he can get to the place and discover the amulet ๐
Are we not calling the others? I miss my flame babe and Rocky โค๐คโค๐ค Also RAY WATCHA DOIN I WANNA KNOW EVERYTHING ๐คฉ๐คฉ
THE TALE OF BENTHOMAAR
Wait what? Shark boy backstory? SHARK BOY BACKSTORY?!? ๐๐๐
Wow, I see that Kalmaar didn't change a thing growing up, still the same gonna-be-a-villain ๐ Of course his voice got a lot deeper and cool and okay you know I love his voice moving on
I find it kinda funny that Kalmaar is so focused on royal blood and superiority, while Clay was basically a farm boy who worked his way up. Giles knows how to get the character no matter what ๐
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH
BABY BENTHOMAAR AAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐
The king seems like such a good pers- fish- creature ๐
Now I'm double sad that he died, my world, why do I always care so fast, it's not healthy in this show where everyone could die ๐ฐ๐ฐ
I'M SORRY IS THAT KAI'S HAIR??? ๐๐๐ I LITERALLY CAN'T LOOK AWAY WTH I DON'T KNOW HOW I FEEL ABOUT THIS
Literally every frame of Benthomaar makes me love him even more ๐ข
Interesting that we got an academic villain, he kinda reminds me of Clouse in a way, maybe even Harumi since she studied her way to her plan as well? I like that we got a bit of personality too!
Using your little bro for your own purpose... it's very evil but kinda also brotherly like ๐
Benthomaar really gives me that very PRECIOUS vibe, kinda the perfect son but also a naive and unaware BABY ๐
LEGO HUG ๐คฉ๐คฉ Not exactly reciprocated but still ๐
Ooohhh, so this is how he found the temple! I like this, it shows that Bentho is most likely physically stronger than Kalmaar, while evil brother is focused on brain and studies. They are planned differently, I like it! ๐๐
Ouch, peer pressure... sibling pressure? Eh you get what I mean ๐
POOR BENTHO ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ YOU GOT THE NINJA NOW DON'T WORRY WE'RE NEVER GONNA LEAVE YOU ALONE YOU PRECIOUS SHARK BABY!! ๐ฆ๐ฆ๐ฆ
Bentho: will I really fit in with you guys? Do you really understand how I feel?
Lloyd: Jay was adopted, Nya's parents were gone most of her life, Zane lost his father while mine turned evil
Bentho(tearing up): yeah that can work
Okaaaaayyyyy, I like that we got a bit of backstory for Bentho too! We didn't get much for Vanya in Master of the Mountain, which is the only thing I was sad about (very little detail, AMAZING season ๐ค๐ค๐ค), nice to see it here!!
But I really want more Nya and Maya interactions, I hope we'll soon get to them again!! ๐๐๐
Alright, getting somewhere here! I'm very curious about what's next ๐คฉ๐คฉ
