Ninjago: Dragons Rising

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.

Ninjago: Dragon Rising, the latest installment in the popular animated series, has captivated audiences with its compelling narrative, engaging characters, and stunning animation.

A review from a 10 year fan of Ninjago.

I know that Ninjago has sort of faded into obscurity since 2018 or so and it all stems from the fact that people can't get over a simple redesign. They chose to just not watch the season or watch the season with the intent to hate on it even thought it has given us some of the best Ninjago content in so long.

Ninjago hadn't taken a severe hit to quality until 2020 and that was when the show struggled to come up with new ideas, and didn't know how to write meaningful character arcs for the Ninja.

Bring in Dragons rising which genuinely has the potential to become the best addition to the Ninjago franchise. They introduce a plethora of New main characters while also still writing the original ninja so so well. The worldbuilding and character writing is probably the best we've ever seen in Ninjago, and the shows visuals look stunning. I am urging original fans of Ninjago to give this a shot because this has been outstanding so far, and has strengthend my love for the series which has been slowly dying out since 2020 or so.

If your worried that the show seems childish, just wait until you get to late season 2-early season 3 where the show finally tackles more mature themes and is as dark as it has ever been.

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! 🔥
