I love how they introduce Zane as "the seer with the sixth sense" and then proceeds to like never use the sixth sense again outside of the pilot and a couple of vision dreams lmao.

[@katiek2025]

Whenever he says “I sense something” i think thats supposed to be referencing it but its not very obvious

[@justaguywithagoodphoto4801]

I just see zane as the ice ninja who sometimes sees the future

[@axjaygaming]

No its that he has an estimated guess about things and thats because hes a robot/android. Keep in mind during the pilot and some episodes of season 1, no one knew Zane was a robot/android, not even Zane. Therefore when u see him as human it's fair to guess hes a person with six sense. However when you see him as a robot you automatically know his knowledge comes from who/what he is

I think the reason why Zane’s neurodivergent coding works even though he’s a robot is 1: this show implies super advanced robots are basically human in universe. 2: after another robot (pixel) is introduced, he does stuff that confuses even her, so his quirky personality is less of a robot thing and more of a Zane thing 😂

I don’t know if anyone feels the same and I highly doubt that the writers intended this but, Zane comes off very autistic coded, sure the nindroid part may put off a few since non human autistic characters are frowned upon but when we see his personality contrasting against pixels more logical dialogue he just absolutely comes off that way to me. I loved him as a kid and him realizing he was a nindroid in the first season reminded me heavily of how when I found out I was on the spectrum things that didn’t make sense before just did! I’m so glad his friends don’t treat him too harshly for acting different. After all “What is strange, one who is different? Or one who is different from you?”

[@gigikju9934]

That’s actually a very popular take in the fandom as far as I know. This wasn’t intentional move on the writers’ part, but I feel like it’s definitely there.
