    tbh the hands of time as villains were one of the only things that kept me interested. but there were some good aspects, like the flashbacks, so that we know more about the old elemental masters, and the music. but my one big problem with it, is that they didn't expand on Cole's RX/lava arms, and whether they were really connected to him turning human or not. the subject was just dropped after the third episode, and never brought up again until s13.

    Honestly, I think so many fans leaving after Hands of Time has less to do with the quality of season 7 and more about the inability of certain to cope with the Ninjas' redesigns. Don't get me wrong, Hands of Time is not a great season, but to this day people defend it while decrying the newer seasons simply because they are blinded by nostalgia for the old designs.

    • @timebomb42
      @timebomb42 Před 2 lety +12

      Nostalgia is a powerful thing in this community, and to the point you just made I still see people to this day saying the redesigns suck.
      And while I get it not all of them are perfect (*cough cough Jay cough cough*) most of them are a minor or major improvement over the old ones.
      Take Lloyd for instance, his old design was decent, the hair is what really made it.
      The new design looks more alive though, whether it be his signature green eyes, his sharp eyebrows, or is fantastic new hair.
      Season 7 overall felt like it was rushed to be put out before the movie.

    S7 issues: The Kai’s parents subplot was built up so much just for it to be immodesty made irrelevant after a short and half hearted battle.
    Main bulk of the season is slow. I bet many of you forgotten that the ninja went to mega monster amusement park, met with the serpentine, had zane offline for 2 episodes, and had an entire episode dedicated to Jay saving the day. And Met up with Karloff, and had Wu get captured for a while, So much forgettable battles 2. Like the one at borg shop in episode 2. The one with the metal at the building in episode 3, the one at mega monster amusement park, the one with the slow mo time blade, etc. The final 2 episodes also felt rushed. The Boiling sea was so anticlimactic, And the final battle of the season was lame and it didn’t even get resolved in the end.
    However I love episode 1, so much mystery and so cool.
    S11: The fire chapter sucked. They should’ve gotten done with that around episode 10, NO FILLERS EITHER. And the entire rest would be in the nether realm. 2, despite this being marketed as a Kai season it really was a lloyd season which kinda sucks because I don’t hate lloyd but the entire oni trilogy were lloyd seasons. Sure Kai has the most seasons at this point or maybe tied with lloyd but we haven’t gotten a good Kai story since season 4/5. I’m fine with Lloyd going with Akita and trying to stop zane. He fails, but instead of zane just remembering all of a sudden the other ninja bust in after just defeating boreal, Kai’s stronger than ever, and takes on Zane himself as the other ninja save lloyd and Akita and stop the army. Kai’s fire is destroying zane even with his staff but Zane’s still able to land a few hits, eventually after Kai is winning the battle zane is able to land a nice hit and has Kai stuck in ice and is about to kill him when he remembers and then he turns back into zane. Kai bursts free from the ice and fights zane even more eventually defeating him and getting the staff all for himself. (Can u believe in a season called forbidden spinjitsu Kai is the only one (and nya) to not use FS even when it’s HIS SEASON, lmao) Kai is evil at this point and he is wrecking all the ninja with his forbidden spinjitsu. Vex starts to switch sides and tries to tell kai he is the Pyro Emperor or something but Kai doesn’t care for it and burns him presumably to death. Eventually Kai will turn good again and realize what got into him. But it would be a better finale and will bring back the evil kai from season 4.

    And here I thought I was the only one who had season 7 as the worst.
    It felt like they tried to give each character a little Arc, and a reason for you to care.
    but in the end all the arcs fell flat and were uninteresting.
    Achronix and Crux could be borderline annoying at times, and when you combine that with characters making silly choices the whole thing just doesn't make you want to finish it.
    I recently rewatched the entire series (and by recently I mean we literally finished this week) and me and my brothers all three agree hands of time was the worst season.
    Season 11 was supposed to have comedy to go with it, it was supposed to be more cartoony, you could see what they were trying to execute, and while you may not 100% like it you could see what they were going for.
    This just felt like they were trying to make it something it was never going to be.
    Anyway sorry for the rather lengthy comment, I'm just happy that someone finally sees hands of Time the way I do.
    And for that you get a like 👍

    1. Why is Cole not a ghost 🤔 idk how he got his body back I have rewatched this many times and still don't know and I thought the reason he was a ghost because they had a future mirror or glass thingy that hinted he would die but then he figured out he would be a ghost and he could be invisible so now he wouldn't just die in the future but now they basically removed that. Is he now going to die again?
    2 I don't like how master wu just gets to fly out the hands of time, time thingy as a baby but no context is given about anything that happens with that and even after the baby wu grows up he still wouldn't talk about it. It seems the "lazy writing" follows into sons of garmadon

    All throughout Ninjago we get a very basic timeline that presents many issues.
    The Serpentine wars only taking place 40 years prior yet no one remembering the Serpentine/regarding them as myths
    The ages of the ninja is also very contradicting.
    Wus age doesn't present an issue since he's part oni so basically can live longer than a normal human.

    I hate secrets of forbidden spinjitzu fire chapter because of three reasons 1. Asperea is a lazy villain because she is evil because of wu like chen, morro, time twins like wu has so many enemies who all have against wu or try to use him fo bad things 2. FILLER episodes that add nothing to the plot also the filler episodes in ice chapter 3. CLUTCH POWERS and the other people at the explorers club ( excluding misako) are so selfish and lazy that they dont care about anything but their building getting destroyed and thats why i hate season 11 fire chapter so much 😡😡😡 also ☠️ to clutch powers and the other explorer s club members and not misako cus misako actually cares about others

      Fire chapter had the guts to ruin Clutch Powers' character, add Antonia (a completely pointless character), create short 10 minute episodes along with freaking filler episodes... Nah, I'm sorry but S11 is just WROOOONG. Ice chapter was cooler, but also illogical. Zane felt no regrets or anything after becoming himself again, so out of character (bc he indeed takes things seriously. Instead of turning that into an impressive emotional character arc, the writers and producers just shove it off and let it go without any explanation)

  • @ertooo4324

    I’ve heard this joke being thrown around a few times, but I truly think that Hands of Time is the season of Ninjago. It feels like a perfectly safe, serviceable, and average Ninjago season which doesn’t push any boundaries in the meanwhile not faltering too hard.
    For one, I would say that all of its characters are in character for who they are and none of them are really regressed. Even Lloyd, who many criticize this season, is rightfully called out after parroting lessons he didn’t rightfully learn or earn in seasons 2-6. His arc in the season mainly sets up what is to come for his character in season 9. Moments like the one you noted in episode 70 are also purposefully portrayed as flaws rather than permanent regressions for the characters.
    Similar to you, I think that the middle of the season is by far its weakest stretch. It’s kinda strange to say, but I feel like the season tries to go too realistic at times when it really shouldn’t. We honestly don’t need three stretched-out episodes about the vermillion collecting metal; it would have been much more entertaining and interesting if we could just assume that the Time Twins had accumulated metal from whatever source and that the vermillion warriors were building their vehicles. This stretch of the season is where I find most of the boredom lies because there are such little stakes to collecting metal that it takes viewers out of the story.

      Well, they were collectig metal just in Episode 4 and in first 3 minutes of Episode 5! I agree with the middle, but many Ninjago seasons are like that! Remember S8, 2 episodes where Cole and Zane sneak in, 1 episode where is just a storm, one where Lloyd just walks with Harumi + few scenes of battling!!
      So this thing can be said for more seasons than S7, but people decided to ignore that on most popular seasons, and look for it on most unpopular seasons for I don't know what reason! Which is really sad!
