Anybody remember that one time they tried to make BIONICLE into a shonen manga/anime
Pretty sure it's lost media now since you'd think it'd show up on wikipedia or tvtropes or something but I guess it's just that obscure
Ah well

MNOG Makuta
It's so hard to adequately describe just what about MNOG Makuta made him so terrifyingly powerful. Like there's a hundred-and-one other fantasy Big Bads that match his basic description: spirit of darkness, being of pure evil, corrupting entity. What makes this dark lord work?
I feel like a lot of it is just the deliciousness of the set-up. No amount of exaggerating how powerful he is means a thing in the dark lord contest, but you begin with "God is asleep because Satan tricked him and we have to wake him up" as the basic quest set-up told with an especially strong mythology creation story vibe to it as if to say this is just how the world is.
Then have the Makuta's influence turn the wild animals hostile. In another world this might not be terrifying, but our little dude have nothing but huts and fences to shelter them from the wilderness and when they leave their village they give up even that. These rahi beasts are dangerous enough that even the toa shouldn't fight some of them one-on-one in the beginning.
Add that you're not even safe inside your village. You know how the Makuta fills the island with infected masks that turn the rahi violent? Well, he can create diseases that get you in your home. You almost wonder if the Makuta isn't watching you now from every shadow.
Finally, you fight through all his strongest rahi, you go down into the darkness, you confront him in his grotto face to face and… the form he chooses is just a whirlwind of rusted parts that briefly form themselves into a fully infected version of one of the dudes you're trying to save. He doesn't need to impress you with how big and terrible he is, he can show you fear in a handful of rust. He is nothing you can fight, because he is as inevitable as entropy itself. He is your inevitable failure. You can't destroy what he is because he is nothing.
... And then you find out his name is Terry XD

He is done! He was quite the time consuming and money sucking project but I am so happy with how he turned out.

Yes okay thank you now I am somehow imagining Makuta painstakingly carving the most balanced Koli balls under Ahkmou's supervision

After arriving in Metru Nui, the Turaga began to occasionally call each of the Toa ‘brother’ or ‘sister’, partially an acknowledgment of their past lives, partially to acknowledge the success that the Toa Nuva have earned, and largely as camaraderie in the bond that they share as Toa or former Toa.
Tahu outwardly acts like it’s only right that he’d be addressed as such, trying to make others believe that he accepts it in stride, but inwardly, he is humbled by the acknowledgment. The Turaga see through his bluster and appreciate his humility.
Onua is outwardly quite humble and appreciative when it happens, but inwardly, he doesn’t quite see himself as being worthy of being addressed by such wise beings as the Turaga, who he holds in high esteem, so he usually comes off as a little bashful when he responds in kind.
The Turaga started being reluctant to call Gali ‘sister,’ largely because she reacts to the title, by pushing herself a little too hard to prove that she is worthy of the acknowledgment. She once to stayed up all night for two days while repairing an aqueduct in Ga-Metru, and when she could barely keep awake during a meeting with the Turaga, everyone immediately decided that Nokama should not call Gali sister anymore.
Kopaka typically glances at whoever called him this and slightly nods, sort of a polite acknowledgment, but those who know him best, especially Nuju, know that he is actually quite touched by the endearment, and he has to be stoic to keep up appearances. Whenua, having the best hearing, has multiple times heard Kopaka whisper ‘thank you, brother’ in response to Nuju or Vakama.
Takanuva started out being quite flustered when he was called brother by any of the elders, still being unused to being called brother even by the other Toa, but as he grew used to his powers and his responsibilities, he began to accept it in stride. He still won’t return the title, since he still uncomfortable with the idea of calling any of the Turaga by that term, but he is still moved by the respect they show him.
Lewa was delighted when they started calling him brother, But he’s also somewhat amused, often laughing when they call him that. To Lewa, it’s still difficult to imagine these wise old beings as Toa heroes, so he can’t always keep himself from laughing. Even so, he never fails to respectfully return the honorific.
The Toa Mahri have varying degrees of acceptance of the honorific. Jaller is proud to carry the title, and Hahli is eager to prove herself worthy of the honorific (though not as much as Gali). Kongo is a bit smug about it, Nuparu takes it in stride, and Hewkii tends to get sort of ‘aw, shucks’ about it. All of them are somewhat muted in their response, mostly because Nuju was the first to call them brother and sister. They all understand that Nuju calls them that as much as he does in memory of Matoro, and his regret that he never got to see his friend as a Toa and call him ‘brother’ in person. The Mahri learned the bird speak for Brother and Sister, and they always call Nuju brother right back.
And the Turaga universally agreed never to call Pohatu ‘brother’ again shortly after the first few times. After then, he began exclusively referring to the Turaga as brother or sister, always with extreme enthusiasm that the elders often find exasperating and often demanding fist bumps from any Turaga he encounters for days after. Most of them just quietly stopped calling him that, except for Onewa, who continued occasionally calling him brother when he felt he had earned it, but after Pohatu found out that Turaga Dume had been a Toa, the seven had an official meeting where they unanimously voted not to call Pohatu brother anymore. Matau still occasionally calls him that, though, because he personally thinks it’s fucking hilarious when Pohatu tries to fist bump Nuju.
