To be honest, I think they really could have deep-dived into the idea of a good-intentioned villain Makuta for G2 since it was mostly a blank slate. I always thought that G2 Makuta's jealousy was underdeveloped, but they could easily spin it be how the story is retold rather than being the truth of why he and Ekimu had a falling out.

Fun fact Valica gave them full sentience in a bid to have them worship valica as a god because he gave them life

I'd love it if they could make a Bionicle light novel series. Something deeper and thicker than Greg's mini novels. I'm really into manhwa webtoons and light novels right now. heheh

Courage symbol could be the dot remaining steadfast inspite of being outnumbered and flanked by the lines which bend around it as a result

You know what I find funny considering his job? "Botar" in spanish quite literaly means "to throw away" as in in the trash 😂

I have an interesting idea for a video making the fantastic out of the mundane think about it basically the story about mystical heroes saving their God was inspired by someone thinking that pills that they did to help their health contain little warriors and the fact that the two legendary masks that we actually know of, we were created for a very normal reason mask of life was basically just something to jumpstart the robot and the mask of time was planned just to slow time because critical malfunctions and allow for timely repairs

I remember not caring much for the sets, finding them overpriced and too childish-looking (Be it for the roundness, the colouring, the simplicity; it just didn't feel like what i used to play with as a kid) So having little to no money i only got G2 second wave Lewa + flying beast thing and kinda forgot about the rest. I still wish i had money as a kid because stores were filled with unsold G1 bionicle taking dust but by the time i got a job at 19 they were either sold or thrown away

Toa Mari are my favorite

Rather funny you applied the team player quality to 3 specific toa elements as their unique element-spwcific trait.😀

I LOVED this analysis, I agree with you. I even teared up for some reason, somehow discussions of this movie when I'm 29 touch me deeper than when I watched it several times as an 8-year old. I guess themes of responsibility and courage weren't relevant for a child.

Something worth noting about the Olmak is that only two of them were ever made (not counting the ones from other universes, anyway), both by Artakha. So even in-universe, they were extremely rare, to the point of bordering on Legendary Masks on their own.

It's an interesting idea, and it would definitely fit Teridax's MO. That said, I think psychically influencing the Shadowed One into going to war is a bit overkill and in-universe, probably unnecessary. Metru Nui is a known strategic target and important location, even without the context of knowing it's Mata Nui's brain. The Dark Hunters would have a vested interest in conquering the city regardless, and we've seen that said desire persisted even after the Toa-Dark Hunter War, given Dweller's continued presence in the city. Or in short, Teridax would have no need to mentally manipulate the Shadowed One into trying to take over Metru Nui, he'd just have to wait for the leader of the Dark Hunters to get ambitious enough to try it himself, because it's a predictable move. It would just be a matter of when it would happen, not if it would happen.

Truly amazing! The Principles are very fascinating and I love this context! The idea they were developed by the Turaga in response to their time as Hordika is a cool angle I love!

What about nockturn is he anti takanuva

I was a massive fan from the early days, felt the bars magma stuff separated the story from what it was too much but stayed interested. Hated the simplistic G2 stuff and the changes to things like the toa of air/jungle. Onua being simple was quite the off put too.

Hahli is peak

And they are not all pink

lol, didn´t knew, there is such a big queer bionicle fanbase... by the way, i´m non binary as well°°

being a wings of fire fan, I I have a good feeling i'll enjoy bionicle

Excellent video

Thank you for choosing Gukko airlines! Please do not interact with the makuta or dark hunters

This video is a painfull experience for headphone and ear bud users

well done

it sounds like you’re saying depth is qualitative and complexity is quantitative

Jaller be like I bought 3 so I’m sitting in 3

If Bionicles have a blood or blood like fluid it would be liquid protodermis

So I'll die either way if I choose any one of those seats from Kreka and Lhikan all the way to Mota Nui and Klick

I always thought it was so that they could weaken one another while still leaving enough alive to be useful in his future plans.

1:28 unless You travel with Hahli underwater. Then You'll start feeling concerned about Your own safety.

Wait, so doesn’t that mean that the mask of Jaller (the hau) survive the flood? And I do think a bit of lhikan is still in that mask.

I do love the character depth in Bionicle, good video dude.

The saddest thing about Bionicle is that collecting it will only get more expensive. I wish I'd rediscovered it ten years ago when sets were still fairly cheap and I had a bit of disposable income. Then again, I also wish I'd bought bitcoin ten years ago.

Let G1 Bionicle come back & let it have a series of its own!

9:53 911💀💀

Another minor detail you didn't include: Matoran/Toa of Earth prefer to live underground; Reidak is claustrophobic

I don’t suppose that if the Element of Light had a Principle, it’ll be a culmination of the 3 Virtues (Unity, Duty & Destiny) and it’s enemy would naturally be Darkness (Shadow). So if anyone has an idea of what would the Principle be and what kind of Skill would it grant, I’m all ears.

How insane do you have to be to bring your sexual perversion to a childrens theme?

when i was younger i use to think takadox and vamprah where female because back then i thought Bionicle characters that were blue were female (except for when they weren't) looking back i now actually wish those two were girls (mainly takadox) more than ever because of the lackluster female representation in Bionicle.....especially in Bionicle's rogue's gallery! -idc if it isn't PC to misgender fictional characters i still wanna headcanon takadox as a she/her-

Another great deep dive! Keep up the great work and keep the legend alive!😁

Sitting next to Mata Nui is the only good option here, idk who that other guy in the row is but

Vezon is also unlike Gali. Gali vouches for teamwork, and Vezok couldn’t truly be the opposite otherwise the Piraka wouldn’t be a standard team of 6. Vezon leaves the entire team in less than 5 minutes, and tries to kill them all later.

Yo yo pirakkaaa

I wanted to see the full mutated Ussal crab, but I guess one can dream.

Great summary about meaning of why losing your powers important.

When I first read the title of this video, I was like surprise. But before I watch it, I started to think and maybe he wasn’t so bad? I love how you breakdown his character and that you mentioned that he was part of the Bionicle version of suicide squad. I do also think at Vezon should have his own show, for when he’s traveling through the Multiverse. And having takanuva tag along with him, now that would be a good idea. Nice video dude.

Just found your channel yesterday and have been binge watching since. Love your stuff, brother! Hope you're gonna keep doing things!

It just had two heroic bearers.
