Top 10 Weirdly Written BIONICLE Characters

[@rockagold3819]

Perditus' absolute irrelevance in the lore is pretty funny too because his name is ripped straight from Latin and means "lost" or "the wasted/thrown away one"

I believe they wanted Brutaka to be a character like Anakin Skywalker, but judging by how his character went all over the place in 2007, it feels like they either didn't know what to do with him or didn't have enough time to finish his arc

[@DeroyJersson6575]

I actually think Mata Nui had some interesting development during he's years, like: "I was called many things and wore many titles before... but never friend". And he wasn't really a gary stu, just look how many times he got kicked before winning every battle.

[@makutamiserix5612]

What about Nuhrii? He's built up as being a mask maker with dark intentions because of jealousy, so he tries to make an ultimate mask. (Sound familiar?) Unfortunately he gets trapped when going to retrieve the mask and it's never brought up again. G2 Makuta was basically the same character done right.

[@volatile5460]

Makuta Miserix Literally every Matoran set of 2004 has that trait of jealousy going for them. In the end, Ahkmou is the only one who gets to do anything with it.

[@makutamiserix5612]

More of what I meant was, Nuhrii was about to make what was essentially going to be the G1 equivalent to the mask of ultimate power. That could've had so many good uses, but it's concept was dropped entirely. The only remnant we have of it is the non-canon "Mask of power" in the Ultimate Dume set.

[@i_likemen5614]

The matoran spheres cut his plan short

[@wrenbeck3370]

Glad to see a traditional TTV top 10 video.

[@thebiggestnut217]

Yeah I've missed them.

[@tranqle73]

Not only was Tuyet’s resurrection convoluted, it was also pointless. She gets brought back as this allegedly powerful being who could tip the scales due to Teridax not factoring in her survival... And all she does is argue with a few people about destroying the Matoran Universe, and then gets teleported out of it anyway. Nor do we ever see her use this stored power she allegedly has, so Tuyet is brought back to accomplish literally nothing. Like, why go through such a convoluted process to bring back a character, and then set them up as an unknown variable and lynchpin against Teridax, only to have her accomplish nothing and then be effortlessly whisked off by Teridax anyway?

[@makutamiserix5612]

Well, she was teleported to the fortress that the Cursed great being was being imprisoned in, and Greg confirmed she escaped with everyone else before Velika blew it up. I bet Greg had some future plans for her, along with everyone else that was in the fortress.

[@tranqle73]

Makuta Miserix Maybe something to do with Marendar the Toa killer?

[@makutamiserix5612]

That would be a cool use for her. The Marendar (it's more of a lifeless machine than it is a character with emotions) was specifically designed by Angonce for killing Toa. Maybe it was never programmed to handle the full power of the Nui stone?

[@tranqle73]

Makuta Miserix Not to mention, we know that Tuyet is the kind of person who would create a Toa Empire, the very thing Marendar was made to stop... And Marendar is attracted by Toa Power, which Tuyet is the most massive, current source for... Also, with the Nui Stone, could Tuyet create other Toa without sacrificing any of her own latent Power?

[@makutamiserix5612]

I think Toa are built if they're not created from evolving Matoran. And the Nui stone drains Toa power, not their souls.

[@PhantomDragon1475]

Another thing to mention about Brutaka was that he somehow KO'd the Toa Nuva and the six matoran with them in one shot, then never displayed that level of power again. As a side note, we never found out why Kapura had his super speed/teleportation ability, or how it works. Think about how awesome he could have been as a Toa.

[@k-leb4671]

I think his speed comes from some silly "art of war"-type philosophy that Vakama spurts and somehow makes Kapura actually literally move fast. That was a weird artifact of the story-telling in the first year.

[@tsukopara2054]

Brutaka isn’t that powerful, it’s a case of comic book power level being employed. An antagonist needs to start off almost ungodly powerful & then be nerfed so the good guys can beat them.

[@the_Red_Star]

Not sure about that first one, Brutaka has been pretty consistently shown to be extremely powerful. He took over the barraki by just showing up, stalemated _Teridax_ 1v1, took on an army of Skakdi together with Axonn and easily pushed the FoF team around even though all 5 members (amongst them, a Makuta) wanted him dead so they could fuck off.

[@Waddlez3121]

[@makutamiserix5612]

The golden skinned being isn't just the Piraka. Vezon isn't part of it, and it's also made with a Vortixx, a Steltian labourer and a Zyglak. And Teridax threw in some Antidermis.

[@gettotheGate]

[@ZakuNuva]

Lessovik was honestly a better character in the toa empire alternate universe.

[@Alex-mb2cy]

yep, he was pretty cool in that story.

[@KJKLKL4ever]

Personally, in my opinion for Mata Nui, he should've reverted to his Glatorian form instead of remaining in the mask, because it gives the other characters hope and inspiration, especially after he was hyped up for ten years and only ever appeared in a physical form in the Glatorian arc and technically in the Mask of Life. Plus, they did Ackar dirty by taking away his best friend. And I personally think it would be cool to see Mata Nui physically talking to the Toa be had overseen all this time. Ah, memories

[@MrAvakstone92]

Mata Nui did it because he believed if he stayed with them, they would blindy see him as a leader to follow, and in his journey through the universe, he concluded that blindy follow someone would make bad things (like what happened in the MU and Spherus Magna)

[@HarryBillyBobGeorge]

I feel like he should've shown up to help against Marendar. An Eowyn-like "I AM NO TOA" thing but that would be a, pun intended, deus ex machina. Who knows what could've been

[@ltb1345]

I think Mata Nui's prototype body shouldn't have been destroyed after his fight with Teridax, and he should've kept inhabiting that body.

Mata Nui, Takanuva and Matoro all seem to be Messianic and/or Paragon Archetypes. Even Ekimu from Gen 2 seemed to be this. But the way they handled their characterization in movie and animation form, especially Mata Nui's and Ekimu's, leaves much to be desired. Indeed, as the mentioned in the video, because of the limited time and the fact that Bionicle G1 was coming to a close, Mata Nui come across as a bit Gary-Stuish rather then Messianic and Ekimu was...I don't know how to describe him.

[@kstanni87]

Velika and Mata Nui were major curveballs. Mata Nui becoming a final protagonist and Velika a godly being hiding in a character that was a in a small average impulse set and suddenly responsible for characters having free wills and thoughts?

[@teridax4]

What about Vultraz? A Matoran that serves the Makuta, is one of the first shadow Matoran, and had an interesting rivalry with Order member Mazeka he had the makings of an interesting villain but then both of them fall into a random portal into another dimension and he’s stuck there to be experimented on to see how he became a shadow Matoran so other Teridax can show up in the main universe It feels like such a weak ending to that story

[@diegodankquixote-wry3242]

[@air-headedaviator1805]

I just wonder how the story of Bionicle would of been different if it started out as a tv series instead of a toy line. Honestly the story of bionicle is just so *awesome* but couldn’t of been fully fleshed out due to the limit of how marketable every major plot point is to buildable sets.

[@vorovaxx4233]

Air-headed Aviator I feel like we would have had substantially less figures if it happened in the reverse order. With the story coming first as a single medium I feel like they would have honed much more on particular characters and lines; excluding what would have been "irrelevant" to portraying coherent story. Versus what we got which was lots of toys to boost play ultimately and a story that tied them together. But that's just my take :p I vote TTV answers this question in their next video!!

Basically, all of these can be explained as one of two things. For weirdness involving actual sets released, it’s executive meddling.

It’s uh....an interesting approach to long narratives. I guess.

I have to agree about Brutaka! His redemption arc always seemed forced to me. It's like he's a naughty kid who got grounded and learned his lesson. 2006 Brutaka and 2007 Brutaka are two completely different characters.

[@Dargonhuman]

My personal headcanon: Ekimu is Takanuva. After saving Mata Nui and the entire Bionicle Universe, but then becoming a glorified babysitter for the rediscovered Metru Nui and getting stuck in the alternate universes, Takanuva finally had enough of being a side character in what he sees as his story. After Spherus Magna was rejoined and as the various Toa and Glatorian were slowly killed off by their various enemies, Takanuva saw an opportunity; he used what he learned on his various adventures to lock away most of his power to become a Turaga and changed his name to Ekimu, making a name for himself in the new meta-civilization that was emerging from the fusion of the Matoran, Agori, Glatorian, and so many other groups, tribes and civilizations that had arisen when Bara, Aqua and Bota Magna had been separated. This meta-civilization would eventually become known as Okoto, and Takanuva, posing as Ekimu, would rise to a position of prominence and eventually authority in this new world, putting himself into a position to shape Okoto into a land of peace and prosperity, guided by his light and wisdom.

[@Dargonhuman]

"Why does he call Makuta in G2 brother though?" some may ask. Simple; Makuta in G2 is Teridax from G1. As was revealed on Voya Nui, the Makuta are sentient clouds of gas (well, more or less...) that can exist for a time without a physical body which makes them extremely difficult to kill. Teridax's gaseous state wasn't completely eradicated when Bota Magna smashed into his robotic head at the end of G1, but he was severely injured by the impact; Teridax lost most of his memories and sense of self, but somehow managed to survive, probably by taking on unwilling hosts that he used to build himself a makeshift body that he then used to wander the wildlands and wastes of Spherus Magna until the forming of Okoto. Eventually, he was found and brought to Ekimu (Takanuva) who instantly recognized Teridax's spirit from the time the two were fused as Takutanuva, but Ekimu eventually realized that Teridax's mind was severely damaged and he suffered from massive gaps of memory. Ekimu felt that, thanks to his brief union with Makuta as Takutanuva, their spirits were kindred, that they shared a bond more brotherly than Makuta ever shared with Mata Nui, and (by his logic), light and shadow are brother elements, and so felt it was his duty to redeem Teridax for all the wrongs he inflicted on Mata Nui, the Toa and the Matoran. So, Ekimu took it on himself to fill in the gaps of Makuta's memory, carefully crafting stories of their shared past, how Makuta was Ekimu's long-lost brother, etc. But, part of Teridax that survived the impact of Bota Magna was his drive, ambition and jealousy, which eventually led to Makuta's betrayal of Ekimu in G2 and Ekimu restoring his Toa power to become the Toa of Light when Makuta's affinity with shadow powers led him to an alliance with the denizens of the Shadow Realm (an alliance that Makuta made when he sensed that Ekimu was hiding things from him) and releasing the Skeletal Army on Okoto.

[@jordanianstudios]

[@LilithLonelyHeart]

well for me bit of a weird writing choice was Helryxs lack of cannon presentation, like she was so prominent and powerful character in lore yet no one took the effort to create her canonical representation and left us with nothing but imagination about how she could look like according to what we know about her and about universe and it's esthetic, i think this could go easily to honorable mentions

[@owenkonsmo1454]

I was blown away by how convincing this video was. I'd already had those problems with Botar for years, and stuff like Mata Nui or Lesovikk seemed fairly obvious, but you managed to actually convince me that Brutaka, my *single favorite character in the series* , was written in a somewhat flawed manner. Not only that, but the humor was on point for every single argument, and I didn't really see it coming just *how* bizarre the writing of characters like Tuyet or Ancient was. The only one I didn't agree with? Takanuva. Stellar video. I should get back into TTV.

[@austinmiller2170]

In gen 2, Kulta is probably the weirdest character. On top of having no origin or motivation, his title of "Skull Grinder" didn't even make sense since his weapon was a staff. He lead an army of skeletons while being a skeleton himself. How? Was he a lich? Or was he just raised alongside the rest of the skeletons that were raised with no explanation? He defeats all 6 Toa at the same time in a single attack, but then gets one-shot when Ekimu shoryukens him with his hammer. At least the Lord of Skull Spiders had the excuse of being an animal.

[@liopleurodon2000]

Don't you think it makes sense that Mata Nui is a Gary Stu? I mean, he's basically bionicle Jesus

[@styrofoam9981]

Not really; the entire storyline came about because Mata Nui neglected his internal universe and by doing so allowed the Makuta to do what they did. Not to mention he allowed Tuyet to be a horrible dictator in an alternate universe because he was still fine in functioning, despite the miserable atmosphere inside. Takanuva is Bionicle Jesus.

[@fernystein9516]

So was the story made before, together or after the sets were finalized ?

[@krx50]

Honestly, I think Mata Nui was written weirdly not because he became the main character, but because of the reveal that he was really a giant robot and all of the previous stories took place either on or in him. That really rubbed me the wrong way because it ripped away a lot of the mysticism that Bionicle had built up over the years. Mata Nui was written as some kind of divine spiritual being, to the point where he was often referred to as "The Great Spirit", and making him something very different than that honestly kinda ruined the story of Bionicle for me.

This is a great and interesting list Meso. And everything that you've said was pretty spot on. I would have also mentioned that the rest of residents of Bara Magna, especially Tuma were weirdly written too. This is mostly a nitpick of mine here, but recently I found myself thinking that Toa Helryx instead of Toa Lesovikk could have been introduced in 2007 and released as a product. It actually would have made more sense that way now that I think about and for two reasons. One, Helryx is the leader of the Order of Mata Nui and she could have been notified about Brutaka's betrayal, so Botar could have taken her to the Pit to deal with him when the conflict was taking place. And two, the Pit was in the deep and she's a Toa of Water. And the other Makuta - do you think they were weirdly written too?

[@Sunaki1000]

Im not him, but Spiriha was a little weird. Why did he not kill Miserix and go along whit Krika? And why ask the Makuta for reinforcement, if they Goal was too loos and let the Toa awake Mata Nui?

I like how G2 Onua hates maces, but that's what he was given as a weapon. He has a big hammer or shovels as Master, and then as Uniter, he has a hammer/drill/stud shooter/mace thing. If you hate maces so much, go back to Ekimu and ask for your shovels back! I like shovel form anyway. Although Onua is wise and is peaceful by way of being wise, he looks like a brute, and looks best when he's punching things. That's why I gave Onua Uniter Terak's claws and Terak Onua's hands and the mace. Not only is it funny looking on Terak, but it looks better on Onua. Downside is that he can't bend back his hands, but he looks great with big mitts. So yeah, not the weirdest written thing, but I thought it was worth mentioning that Onua is stuck with a weapon he doesn't like.

[@Straswa]

Great vid and nice list.

[@gunjfur8633]

Whats the background song? Ive been asking & searching for a long time, yet I am still ever clueless.

[@JNCGaming]

This is the content we want. Thanks

[@robozxd2857]

If gen 2 Pohatu isn't here I WILL BE MAD! He was an Aussie who disliked scorpios, and turned into a regular dude who hated scorpions

[@scottjs5207]

YOU MAD BRO? sorry... couldn't resist.

[@robozxd2857]

Scott JS don’t worry bout it... IM MAD BRO

[@Waddlez3121]

screw you (/j) Pohatu was super cool in G2 like come on who else has BOOMERANGS? THAT TURN INTO SHOES FOR HIS SHOES!

[@vikramchakraborty1024]

This might sound really hypocritical but FINALLY a new bionicle video!

[@toatitan2414]

Finally a new bionicle video

[@halpysbane3373]

But there was an entire story about Brutaka in Makutas guide to the universe where he leads a group of reformed villains to find and rescue the first makuta imprisoned by terradax. I also believe it ties into takanuvas interdimensional adventure

[@2chaskell]

Have u read the treatment that was written for the 5th movie? It really expanded on mata nuis character growth

[@N8-PT]

I think Ekimu is more than deserving of the mention than LoSS. A major character has more weight than a blank henchman

[@aliesterus1.023]

I'm pretty sure Botar's death was more to cement how strong Icarax is, rather than to make us feel for Botar. Botar had kinda cemented himself as this terrifying character every time he showed up, someone who even fellow Order members were hesitant to cross, so Icarax kicking his ass, easily even, was likely supposed to seem impressive.

[@diegodankquixote-wry3242]

Velia is the best character ever

[@hbcreates8355]

TAKUA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@caveyspider]

IMMM HHERRE JALLLER!!!

[@hbcreates8355]

Lol

[@caveyspider]

I dont know what to reply

[@hbcreates8355]

somebody toucha ma spaghet what are you doing here all alone!?

[@hbcreates8355]

somebody toucha ma spaghet it’s a quite from he Bionicle mask of light movie. After jalla says what are your doing here to takua, he says they have to go to the kohli game and then after that takua gets the mask of life

[@TobyEchozap]

didnt know botar died.that made me sad. i liked botar. poor poor poor botar. good video. RIP botar. 200 and something to some point.

[@shvansee216]

Wait... but isn't botar like the perfect character to be killed by Icarax? Yeah the resurrection part is a little weird, but it's not him anymore. Botar is the one who made Teridax afraid, and him being killed by Icarax only shows how powerful the makuta is, and why Teridax fears him. Also the lack of story and everything just makes me not miss him much, as he was just there, teleporting a bunch of people away.

[@philipmonihan8222]

I'll tell you who was weirdly written, the Great Beings. So, at first, Mata Nui WAS a Great Being fulfilling something of a God role. Then it turns out he was MADE by the Beings who were the original inhabitants of the Magna planet. But who or what they were and what happened to them was never explained to my satisfaction.

[@Finthesharkguy]

Im really surprised you didn't include Good guy even though i wouldn't really consider them an actual Bionicle character. This is a joke however because GOOD GUY IS THE GOAT

[@Blue-Rain]

I kinda feel bad for ancient

[@lekhaclam87]

This feels more like a top 10 of characters with wasted potentials than weirdly written, maybe with the exception of Tuyet.

[@toxin18gamingairsoft89]

The mighty tuma is the mighty tuna fish!

[@Waddlez3121]

actually made me laugh

[@deemcgann1695]

Actual god is a gary sue? Who knew~

[@adnanpatel9515]

Mazeka and Light Teridax were also disappointingly not used at all after starring in a really neat serial

[@LeoxandarMagnus]

Hey, don’t talk about my man Trinuma that way.

[@Crazipar_Zipar]

I think Vultraz and Mazeka were pretty oddly written, the inter dimensional hoo ha always kinda was weird to me.

[@joeyjojojuniorshabadoo6990]

So Botar’s kinda like the UberEats of Bionicle

[@omnitone]

lol the part at 8:07 tho

[@acekoala457]

I was so into Bionicle when I was younger and never knew half this shit

[@jinxtheunluckypony]

Mata-Nui wouldn’t have bugged me as much if he didn’t where the ignika, Ignika was his own character and he was reduced to an accessory for a more important character with the same freaking color scheme no less.

[@Sunaki1000]

Yes, It would be even OK if Ignika would Died by the resurection. But no, he is still alive and cant move. But he had a new Roommate. Like Piccolo and Nale.

[@Waddlez3121]

I dunno the Ignika had a pretty simple brain, according to the story I personally don't think there was a whole lot to do there
