I honestly liked The Benefit of Grief. I think it might be the best episode of Crystalized. Sally is a bit much but she's not overly annoying at least for me.

[@ZaidGameZ]

I think calling it the best is a bit much and would personally say it's the worst episode in pt. 1. The idea behind it was really good, but it was very unnecessary. Zane should've already had turned on his emotions after Nya returned (yes I know we got a scene about that but that could've easily have been written out). I would say the best episode would have to be The Spider's Design. It really left you wanting more

Clouse has been banished to the Underworld. It happened in the Dark Island Trilogy, which takes place after Skybound.

[@Blueboysback]

I was explaining to a friend why aspherea (don’t know how to spell it) didn’t become a water snake when nya was drained because she didn’t swallow nya’s elemental power like she did for Kia then my friend questioned why they didn’t just use the same draining method as the time twins and getting new weapons to remove her powers would be easy as they original time blades were made by Kia and Nya’s parents and I think this point will keep me up at night.

[@helenos_152]

Nya could not use her powers in a way that would make it possible for her powers to be absorbed, and chronosteel permanently takes away one's powers, unlike Aspheera's spell

[@Blueboysback]

@@helenos_152 ok I know that is the most probable explanation but where does it actually say that in the series she can still manipulate water shown in her fight with wojira and if anything this would probably be the most likely form to be able to make energy beams so while it probably is the actual excuse I just don’t like it

[@spinjitzumasterfalcon]

I think after the fight with Wu and the Overlord, the season went downhill from there. Which is a shame because the pieces were right there for a great conclusion. I am so glad Dragons Rising is fixing my problems with Crystalized and taking their time

We can be glad, everyone is alive.

I do agree with aspheera getting the water form and make Aspheera Nya’s villain and Pythor Kai’s villain since Jay and Pythor have no beef and that scene earlier in the season with Kai and Pythor pay off and The mechanic could be jays villain since he stopped Unagami like how lloyd mentioned why the meachanic wants revenge on the ninja so it makes a lot more sense

[@rhyperiorhunter7339]

I'd say the whole Lloyd oni form plot could have been soo much better if they did one thing, TAKE A CUE FROM DEVIL MAY CRY specifically Dante's arc in Devil May Cry 3 is having to accept both his human and demon sides as part of himself as he'd spent the whole first act rejecting his demon side and only used it after Vergil defeated him while in the finale Dante was able to defeat Vergil after accepting both sides of himself compared to Vergil who considered his humanity a weakness to be cast aside leading to him losing, it even caused him to lose against Nero is DMC5 who had just awakened his own demon form and won because he used his human emotions (in this case his drive to stop Vergil, his father, and Dante, his uncle, from killing each other) to fuel his Devil trigger I think what they should have done is have Lloyd transform back as normal with the overlord taunting him about how he became just like the oni from season 10, who only care about and fight for themselves, only for Lloyd to remember both Mystake and Garmadon who both were oni but who used their power to protect what they loved, how Mystake loved the land she called home and Garmadon despite having his humanity removed still fought to save his son, and upon remembering this, Lloyd transforms back into his oni form and says that while that is part of himself, he isn't fighting for himself, he fights to protect what he loves, his home, his family, his friends, just like Mystake and Garmadon did before him, that this side of him isn't being used to destroy, but to protect, they could even have Lloyd ride the golden ultra dragon as normal just in his oni form symbolizing his acceptance of all sides of his heritage, his oni side, his dragon side, and his humanity fueling both, plus it would still be really hype which is the point of a grand finale like this

[@nightlunastar]

Here are the reasons why Lloyd not accepting his oni Form is wrong 1. No selfacceptance 2. Using it to fight for the greater good. Nya didn't wanted to merge with the sea, but she did it to save Ninjago. So why can't Lloyd just confront his fear for the greater good. He didn't know there is another way to defeat the Overlord, him becoming an oni was the only chance in his head 3. Lloyd during this season just can't shut up about how evil the Oni are. Bro, did you forgot that Mystake gave her life for the resistance? 4. Lloyd realy slowly started to accept that maybe he was wrong and Garmadon did change, and yet he still didn't want to use the oni form. Why are you so stupid Lloyd? Not only Mystake but now also Garmadon is fighting for good yet you still are against using your oni power to save Ninjago.

[@ArizonaReds]

maybe because he said multiple times that he never wanted to end up like his father who literally attempted to kill him while being evil. When yu experience that kind of trauma you would want absolutly nothing to do with anything related to it. in the season you see how disappointed Lloyd is in himself everytime he loses his self control. Maybe because he feels lf he loses his control he wont be able to regain it. So no he isnt stupid, he's scared and scarred.

[@twstudios8538]

​@@ArizonaRedsexept that being an oni never was what made garmadon evil, wu is part oni, the first spinjitzu master is part oni, and neither of them are evil

[@ArizonaReds]

@@twstudios8538 Lloyd does not want to become like his father. His father atm is only oni and garmadon said that he is evil. There is no dragon to Garmadon he is a full oni and oni are evil. Lloyd doesnt want to be evil

[@TooSweet353]

​​@@ArizonaRedsThis line of reasoning could potentially work, if they did not give Garmadon a redemption arc. He had long since left pure evil, having an arc during Season 10 and post with the lazy way they brought him back in this very season. Garmadon might not be good. But it's shown he's not pure evil. Also this is the same Lloyd who advocated from breaking out Garmadon himself in Season 10 when Ninjago was at stake, he also recklessly helped break out Aspheera to save Nya and owned up to it. So he is more than willing multiple times to do what he feels is the wrong thing for the greater good. Also he rejects his Oni Form because "he doesn’t want to become evil like his father" or some BS and throughout the season, he accepts the person who brought his father back like that and is arguably a much more despicable person. Another lazy aspect is why would you have Garmadon in the story at all, to train Lloyd when Lloyd is just going to reject him and The Oni at the opportunities he gets? It's lazy, if you the pay-off is Lloyd resisting temptation and Garmadon, how about not having Garmadon back at all.

[@ArizonaReds]

@@TooSweet353 Omg. I ty;ped an entire comment and then I clicked out of the comment and it deleted erverything, so here's another one. 1. Lloyd didn;t forgive Garmadon the same way that he forgave Harumi since Lloyd believed that Harumi could be redeemed. He constantly "Threw himself" at he, trying to get her forgiveness for things tat he did which weren;t his fault. I 2. I believe that Garmadon gave Lloyd a deeper trauma then harumi did, since loyd seems more angry at Garmadons reappearance than Harumis. He constantly shouts angrily at garmadon expressing his anger towards him. 3. Lloyds onu form. Maybe lloyd didn;t want to become an Oni because he didn;t want to become like his father. We saw in season 1-2 when Garmadon was evil but not Oni fully, that he still had cares for Lloyd and all that, allowing Lloyd to save him and bring him to the light. But now that Garmadon is oni, Lloyd is unable to help garmadon, which makes Lloyd blieve that Garmadon's evil oni side makes him an unredeemable person who can't change. This is why Lloyd doesn't want to do his oni form because Lloyd believes that he'll become a pure evil being. And with the trauma that Lloyd endured because of evil oni Garmadon you can;t blame him for that. 4. Garmadon's return. Garmadon's return was gonna happen, especialy since Crystalized basically tie up all loose ends and brought bck all the characters, so of course Garmadon had to return. The bonding between father and son, ad Lloy learning mre about how his father had changed his ways was more impactful than the whole oni teaching thing. I believe that's why they brought garmadon back, to sort of give Lloyd some closure over Garmadons disappearance na dhow he was fairing. 5. Conclusion. Lloyd might accept his oni form in the future when he feels like he can control it and when his emotions and feelings about the form are rational, since now he just isn't comfortable knowing all the bad thing he can do with the oni form. However. maybe with the proper knowledge of the form, lloyd can use it for combat since he would know that he isn't evil for/by using it. Its just a form that can help him save the day, even if he does look a little bit scary while doing it.

i really hope she comes back though I feel like more people would want to know what happened to her as time goes on I do believe the controversy from Crystalized will die down and therefore want her back in the show. Tommy left the show and didn’t think Harumi is redeemable but Doc Wyatt and Kevin Burke think otherwise so now that Tommy left they are the new head writers of the show and since they like Harumi so much they are know in charge so they can do what they feel is right for her character and do something that would hopfully make most of the fandom happy or satisfy towards the end in she does appear like seasons 4 and 5 cause we are only getting season 2 this year so if it is 1 season per year and imo by the time they get to it people might change their minds on Harumi and maybe more people would want her back then before people chance their minds all the time the backslash from Crystalized would have probably died down by then like if we have season 2 this year 2024 season 3: 2025 season 4: 2026 season 5: 2027 that is a loooonnnng time away things might have improved by then at least i hope so... i feel like by then the writers would have already known what to do with Harumi and her character by the time she does return I believe Doc Wyatt and Kevin Burke know harumi's character well enough to think of a way to bring her back and all that other stuff cause but it would be nice to see her as a good guy in Dragons Rising if she were to return Like Doc Wyatt and Kevin Burke really like Harumi apparently and they also see her as a broken villain and Doc Wyatt confirmed that harumi’s feelings for Lloyd were there but they are complicated and Tommy Andrason had a whole other view point and I am guessing that is what caused the clashing writing in Crystalized cause Doc Wyatt and Kevin Burke wrote the better episodes where we see her looking guilty and wanted to redeem her you could tell they wanted to redeem her from the start but they were too many writers to have a good redemption arc but Tommy left the show and if they like her character soooo much wouldn’t that mean that they would be more willingly and likely to want to bring her back, Like I think if it were up to them they would like I said the controversy probably did a lot of speaking and decision making for them but they did not say she is dead and there are a lot of other old characters that we have not seen yet

I have resorted to using a "headcanon" because of how awful this season is. In my head, only the first 6 episodes of crystallized are canon, where Nya comes back to her human form. After that is where my headcanon begins. The Ninja go to prison, they do their time, they get let out early for being on their best damn behaviour. Then you cut to dragons rising. Perfect. Edit: I think Benefit Of Grief is a good episode for Zane's development. Could be better, but still good. Its stupid to call it "fAt fIlLeR"

[@radiganev1194]

[@aha2384]

as bad as crystalized is, due to many unexplained missing plots 'n such like for example how lloyd didn't embrace and feared his oni powers yet got proven by mystake and even garmadon that oni can be good, but aside from that. I think we can all agree that garmadon saved this season, he was practically perfect.

Technically the 3rd the original ending is season 2

[@SyDSandwich5403]

In my opinion, we shouldve had another season between seabound and crystalized, it would have solved the issue of nya coming back too soon and it wouldve been able to finish all the important story lines going on in seabound so that crystalized wouldve been the propper send off it shouldve been, maybe a fitting storyline could have been focusing on allot of side characters like nelson, darreth, vanya and skylor and maybe also some small glimps of what the villains in crystalized were doing.

[@theAstarrr]

Also the overlord returning is dumb. He just has infinite lives that eventually regenerate! You'll never stop him! Imagine if it was Nadakhan who Clutch Powers freed as seen in the background footage, seeking revenge

[@LeonPacurar]

I find crystallized to be a great season outside of it's story telling, it had top tier visuals, animation and action too, but the story was ass and it drags the season down heavily. Most people say that part 1 was a lot better than part 2 but to be honest, i really dont think any of the parts was better than the other.

[@Jeksignup49]

16:07 actually, there is a encounter with Jay, it’s a short where he stopped pythor and a group of serpentine robbing a bunch of noodles trucks, just happened during season 1, just shown in the new style but I do agree Pythor getting the nunchucks of lightning doesn’t make too much sense

23:10 her name is Antonia Also at 25:39 and 26:52 the audio is missing Personally, I enjoyed crystalized, it sure could’ve been better but wasn’t as bad as everyone says, despite its flaws like the return of the ice emperor or harumi (who just felt like she was brought back for the people that ship her with Lloyd), or mr.e/f’s pathetic death Off topic question, but since you did one for kung fu panda, are you gonna do a « I watched EVERY despicable me movie » video after the fourth film comes out ?

i guess controversy on Crystallized and her portrayal in Crystalized will never die....so....sad (sorry for the overdramatic but damn people really hate crystalized!!) i feel like i'm the only one who liked Crystalized and liked harumi being redeemed but yeah like everyone i totally agree IT SHOULD NOT HAVE BEEN DONE IN ONE EPISODE LET ALONG 30 SECONDS OR SOMETHING?????? it should have been through the course of the season and ep 17 Return to Prievel's eye was the perfect time to shine some light on this and have her begin that path of redemption i really really thought they were gonna do this but no...they didn't yeah i do agree she is a pretty controversial character especially her portrayal in Crystallized i mean i always thought that 50% of the fandom didn't like her and 50% of the fandom loved her that's what it looked like to me (thought the controversy of her portrayal in Crystalized would die down by now i mean it has been 2 years already!!!) yeah i do agree Harumi is a pretty controversial character especially her portrayal in Crystallized i mean i always thought that 50% of the fandom didn't like her and 50% of the fandom loved her that's what it looked like to me (P.S, I'm one of the 50% who loves her i really hope Harumi comes back though I feel like more people would want to know what happened to her as time goes on I do believe the controversy from Crystalized will die down and therefore want her back in the show. do u think we will see harumi in future seasons?? like seasons 4 and 5 cause apparently. (like harumi is human too she doesn't deserve sooooo much hate. yeah i do agree she is a pretty controversial character especially her portrayal in Crystallized i mean i always thought that 50% of the fandom didn't like her and 50% of the fandom loved her that's what it looked like to me (P.S, I'm one of the 50% who loves her)

[@ansemthetrueseekerofdarkne2730]

I feel like the Overlord would be a better villain if they just fully leaned into his best attribute: His creepiness and uncanniness from season 2, like that guy legitimately felt like something out of one of those paranormal reality shows. Now they actually did some of this correct this time around, as his Crystal King appearance clearly looks like an Oni version of Baphomet, whereas his dumb fucking appearance in Rebooted just looked like a grumpy old man with a literal limp and cane.

[@Luc84]

I feel like it would’ve been cooler if Jay and Cole wore silver armour! And it would be cute if Kai ask Skylor to be his yang! And it would be cool if the ninja’s dragon forms were like their true potential! Imagine the way the ninja unlock their dragon form is just like them unlock their true potential! And it be cool Lloyd embraced his dragon side and uses it to fight the overlord, but at the end when his father dies, he would switch from his dragon form to oni form! And it would be cool for Nya to learn how to be a ninja without powers, that would be an excellent character arc for Nya because crystalized showed us how useless Nya is without her powers, and it would be cool if the ninja merged into the golden ultra dragon or maybe oni Lloyd can use the four golden weapons since he has four arms and create the golden ultra dragon to defeat the overlord and it would be cool for Lloyd embrace both dragon and only side! And at the end I just want Lloyd to snap at Harumi since he believes his father’s dead and because she was the one who released the overlord! So NO!! SHE’S NOT WITH US!!! (i’m looking at you, Lloyd…) so yeah that’s how I would improve crystallized!

Agreed but Overlord won't come back in DR and Crystalized is my 2nd favourite season.

[@midnight_77]

The only bad thing about Part 1 is that they bring Nya back so soon but the main issue with Nya in Crystalized is the direction they take her. (Sure bringing her back the next season in general is always gonna be worse than not doing so, but they went like the worst possible route is my point.) So really the blame for Nya being ruined goes to Part 2 de facto, because when Part 1 ended we all just let Nya do her thing because OBVIOUSLY she was gonna have a great arc in Part 2. Until she didn't.

In my personal opinion asides from nia coming back crystallized was a good show and the overlord coming back i don’t think it was bad at all he’s been gone for 12-13 seasons and was meant to be a final boss of the show though I will agree on some things like they shouldn’t have had the season go as long after the wu fight and that I feel making the overlord actually have a belief that conflicts with the ninjas while also in the end wanting the same end result which would be peace in ninjago would’ve been great instead of a one off line where he says there will be peace in the dark and with the council not really having weapons that all fit then (python)but I give the season an 8/10 could’ve been better due to missed opportunity (mainly the overlord not being fully developed)

[@Didntseethiscoming]

Hot take if harumi had slowly fallen in love over time leading up to the finally it would have been good

[@adenweiner5573]

@Didntseethiscoming At the end of season 9 after she saved a family she and Lloyd shared a gaze and she could have looked at Garmadon but she didn’t she looked at Lloyd and she she had the look of regret, guilt and realization of Lloyd being right all along, she had just witnessed history repeating itself, children losing their parents like she did all those years ago, Lloyd warned her about this but she ignored it until it was shown right in front of her. Lloyd even said her nickname ‘Rumi’ before the building slowly feel down Like right before Cystalized. Crysalized did not add anything new by saying harumi suddenly has feelings for lloyd I believe she did already have feelings for him long before Crystalized like right at the end of season 9 when she looks at him, lloyd looks shocked and feels pity for her in this scene and after this he goes to look for her after the building crashes need I say more about it? and when she stares back at him there is no hate in her eyes for lloyd, she is just realising then her feelings for him, if she did not have feelings for him they could have had her looking at Garmaon but now they had her looking at lloyd and having her suddenly realises her feelings for him and how he was right about casualties and people getting hurt lloyd did warn her that there would be causality and she ended up being one of those casualties she did not believe him at first but then she sees it for herself and then realises that this is not who she wants to be, I believe Harumi is lonely, she has nobody that cares about her or loves her and her birth parents are dead and her adopted parents did “care” for her but not her emotional needs and that caused her to be bitter and emotional unstable, the only one that does care about her is Lloyd, that’s why I really hope she gets redemption she has been lonely and alone for so long it’s just sad nobody but Lloyd truly gets her and understands what it’s like to loose everything, I really hope in the Dragons Rising series they will further establish these issues as well as what she did to Lloyd and she could apologize sincerely to him for all the pain she’s caused him and slowly gain his trust throughout all her episode appears, not saying they should be together but they could at least be good friends, that’s what Harumi needs a good friend, a shoulder to cry on,

[@Didntseethiscoming]

@@adenweiner5573 you have an excellent point but I would have thought that it would have taken more time that is my opinion and yours is also valid

[@adenweiner5573]

@@Didntseethiscoming Long comment ahead really sorry!!! she just got revived in season 16 Crystalized and we have’nt seen her since season 9 that is like 4 years we haven’t seen her she is sooooo memorable with years of character development it would be sooo and such a shame for Harumi to be thrown out and forgotten about?!? i really want her too the writers have lots of planned writing ahead, but it would be nice to see her as a good guy in Dragons Rising if she were to return Like Doc Wyatt and Kevin Burke really like Harumi apparently and they also see her as a broken villain and Doc Wyatt confirmed that harumi’s feelings for Lloyd were there but they are complicated and Tommy Andrason had a whole other view point and I am guessing that is what caused the clashing writing in Crystalized cause Doc Wyatt and Kevin Burke wrote the better episodes where we see her looking guilty and wanted to redeem her you could tell they wanted to redeem her from the start but they were too many writers to have a good redemption arc But Tommy left the show and if they like her character soooo much wouldn’t that mean that they would be more willingly and likely to want to bring her back? i'm happy about that fact they actually thought of giving her redeeming her in the first place Tommy andrason described the writing of season 16 Crystalized was like a tug-of-war and that to me would make a lot of sense cause in one episode you would have Lloyd and Harumi hating each other and in another you would have them looking out for one another and caring for each other. Like I think if it were up to them they would like I said the controversy probably did a lot of speaking and decision making for them but they did not say she is dead and there are a lot of other old characters that we have not seen yet and it is not only Harumi but also Lloyd’s oni form and how he treated Garmadon Vs Harumi and how they are “supporting a toxic relationship” which I really don’t think that is what they were even trying to do here imo honestly why do people still say it is a toxic ship if they both want to make up? Harumi is no longer mad at lloyd now that she knows the truth and lloyd forgave harumi( i know everyone is mad about this but forgiveness does not mean you are letting this person back in your life and that does not mean you trust them and they are in the same place as they were in before. it simply means letting go of the poison and all the toxic thoughts and no longer holding onto a grudge.) so i don't see any reason why they can just move on and be friends or a couple and i hate it when people say harumi has done lot of bad things to lloyd which is true but if lloyd wants to give her another chance then its his choice so i don't see the issue and harumi is no longer mad at him and already avenged her parents by helping lloyd and Garmadon defeat the overlord so she has no reason to be a villain anymore so i don't see the harm in them trying to move on from the past and try and be friends and Nya, they gave her back her powers but they managed to fix the two of them in Dragons Rising and everyone is happy why not try and do the same to Harumi like I am taking it 50% want her back and 50% don’t want her back but if they would do it right and not make llorumi happen they could please both sides like there is gonna be controversy either way so at least show us what happened or flashback best case they just bring her back and show us where her and Lloyd stand now in their complicated relationship cause her ending in Crystalized was left pretty open-ended like you can’t just leave THAT up to interpretation like too big of a gap to guess if we need to know what happened like seasons 4 and 5

It kinda makes sense for harumi to have feelings because as a child she was big fan of the ninja but when the great devour killed her parents she hated the ninja so she wanted revenge so in season 16 the overlord reaveld that he corrupted the snake which made harumi betray the overlord and now likes the ninja
