#like how there might be some middle east equivalent in ninjago bc like

[nyaskitten]

One day I truly wanna just get sooo deep into the different cultures that kind of exist in Ninjago but in the weird Ninjago fashion of taking bits and pieces and horribly misrepresenting them.

#in other words i wanna examine so much of the odd cultural aspects #like how there might be some middle east equivalent in ninjago bc like #they have djinn #they have the turbans #the architecture in shintaro resembles moroccan and islamic architecture a lot more than japanese architecture #theres some arabic words as evidenced by 'khan' in both nadakhan and khanjikhan #bc khan means king in arabic #or how somehow there exists spanish here solely bc kai went like 'crime doesnt pay muchacho' #and then theres possibly aztec-like cultures #bc clutch powers mentioned his protective amulet was minkan which is likely just a reference to inca and all that #and also they have indigenous cultures but im not very fond of how they handled that specifically #like in both cases its 'the magical tribes who need the outsider ninja to save them from a great evil and/or need to appease an ancient god #ninjago #basically i can do whatever i want u cant stop me !!! #raine's rambles
