Ninjago: Dragons Rising

From start to finish the character's new to old are instantly enjoyable with great interactions they do a great job of making Arin and Sora likeable protagonists and the many villains unlikeable. The merge is a well done and intriguing way to do a soft reboot. The story is a simple yet affective good vs evil story. The hero's trying to protect the dragons while the villains try to capture the dragons' simple right? It could have been a boring story, but the characters elevated the experience. The 16 realms merging worked to give the ninja new locations to go to with new allys and villains to fight while it also does have a bit of fetch quest style it doesn't drag on to long for the most part. The story isn't complete quite yet but once it is i would say i recommend this series to anyone trying to get into Ninjago's story but also longtime fans.

Title says it all. I love what the writers are cooking with this sequel series of a beloved childhood show of mine. And knowing that Dragons Rising is just one series that is far near from ending, I cannot wait and see what other adventures after Dragons Rising the Ninja have left in store for us! Obviously some character have yet to shine and the series like Zane, Cole, Jay (Rouge now), etc but getting confirmation from the head writer Chris "Doc" Wyatt about what's to come before AND after the new episodes makes me think that the series is in good hands. But the main highlight of the show for me was Kai. He is my favourite Ninja but seeing how he was treated by writers in most recent seasons compared to the older seasons makes me a bit sad that he's sidelined most of the time. But now he actually plays an important role in the series and fully showcases how much he's developed with his student Wlydfire who is a bit of a reflection on who he was back then. Once again I can't for what's store for the future of Dragons Rising and Ninjago itself and I will be there no matter what. NINJAGO FOREVER! 🔥

This show is amazing, as someone who has been watching ninjago for over a decade, I was worried about all the new changes in this series, however I am so pleasantly surprised. Its such a fun and enjoyable show with great messages and characters. The writing is amazing and very enjoyable, im 18 years old and love this show. The show is so entertaining and funny and enjoyable. Season 1 was amazing overall and super fun and wholesome. Season 2 was amazing too, with a very entertaining story. This season was much darker than season 1 which appeals alot to older kids/teenagers/people. Season 2 had many positive messages about caring for yourself and others

The only thing is that although season 1 is good for all ages, for season 2, I would reccomend ages 9+ because the season is alot darker and scarier and might scare young kids.

The story was absolutely amazing, I have never seen anything quite so unique in ninjago before especially with dragons, they changed the story in so many ways but kept the core values that makes ninjago, ninjago. It does a good job at keeping the viewer engaged wether they are an adult like myself or a child, unlike before where they story and fight sequences were completely predictable even for me when I was a child. The show has also introduced a completely new concept to the show that was completely unknown previously but still fits the main story line, I won't go into spoilers but it's a great time investment for both kids and adults.

I was blown away by the first season of Ninjago: Dragons Rising. After multiple, what I think are failed seasons produced in Ninjago from 2019-2022, the show is BACK, and PACKS A PUNCH! The 22 minute episode format is back again, which I think is great, and fits the show really well. The graphics and details are exceptional and top notch, in what I think are the best graphics in all of the previous seasons of Ninjago. The new main characters of Arin, Sora, and Wyldfyre, and the antagonists of Lord Ras and Emperor Beatrix are exceptionally well written, giving me great hope for future seasons of this show. The soundtrack is awesome and carries the show greatly, as always. The plot does not seem rushed as in the other episodes in the Wildbrain era, and the plot builds and stacks up in a great way. The lore of Ninjago is deepened by a great extent by the events of the Merge, which opens up a lot of new opportunities. Overall, this might be the best season behind those in the Oni trilogy (Sons of Garmadon, Hunted, March of the Oni). Definitely 10/10 stars from me, can't wait to what new stuff this show has to offer.
