Great Video! But what about Decoded? ;)

@@michaelsator7222 Literally just a clip show that I refuse to sit through

@@nathanschannel cmon. It has atleast 2, maybe 1 great line...

Dragons Rising wants to have a word with you

@@MagicPotato08 an exception can be made

I wouldn’t say favorite for me but it’s a decent season when I’m watching it.

the OST for hands of time is pretty good tho

Hands of Time is in my top 5. I think it's number 3

Yeah, I liked it to. Thought the time blade parts were so cool!

1 or 2 for me

Nah not me

@@s_us.y nerd!!!

@ClicheProductions nope It's my opinion, I didn't say u shouldn't have liked it 😒

@@s_us.y bro cant take a joke

@ClicheProductions u really know how to describe ppl cuz am always said about that idk jokes 🥲

I would like Skybound if it weren't for a certain person trying to marry a minor. That's also my reason for Posession, as RONIN TRIES KISSING A MINOR.

@@RavernyOnRU-vid it's not really an excuse but it's an kid's show. I highly doubt toddlers will know what pedophilia is

Skybound was amazing. I recently watched it for the first time ever because it wasn't on Netflix when I was a kid and I loved it

@@Reves0ne89 kids still shouldnt see that, as they might think it's okay that theyre uncle does weird things with them

@TheOfficialGuinta what I'm saying is that toddlers don't know what pedophilia is and they should never have this idea normalised. If we exclude the age gap season 6 was overall very good

Yes

Really cool, just Wu should have died and more long term consequences.

Hearatic!!

Agreed, thank goodness someone agrees with me!

Seriously though am I the only one who noticed the pride flag gag in the benefit of greif? Was it just me???

It’s always bugged me how no one refers to endings as episode 100

*In case you're curious, this is that edited scene.* (The context is the exact same. Kai had spent the whole season trying to find out the history of his parents, and learns they were traitors and still alive working for the Time Twins. He's fueled with grief, blinded by his conflicting emotions, and it makes him attempt to assassinate his dad. Yes. That's what the context is. Nya and Maya stop him, and the family reunites.) The only difference is the dialogue. So we start with Kai barging into the blacksmith shop. His father is there. There's a look of solitude and despair on his father's face as he hits his hammer on the metal he's working on. The sound of the hammer on the metal adds to the uneasiness of the scene. Kai stands there, unsure what to do. He's hesitant, his hand tightened on his blade (or whatever that thing is). Ray looks up, assuming it's a guard. He says, *"The next load is on the shelf. I'll have the next batch by morning, as you wished."* Then he goes back to hammering the metal. It's louder this time. From under Kai's mask, his eyebrows are tightened. He shuts the front door and locks it. (Because this is an assassination attempt. That's what he's trying here.) Ray stops hammering and notices the 'guard' locking the door, and he goes, *"What? Was it something I've done?"* That's when Kai gives a sneer. *"Yes."* Then Kai, no other words, no patience for his father's reaction, charges at Ray and tries to strike him with the blade. Ray, with the hammer in his hand, defends himself. The two engage in a fight, with Kai trying to take him out, and Ray acting out of self defense. Ray holds his own very well, and even knocks Kai back a bit. (Showing the audience he's capable of holding his own.) When Kai is on the ground, Ray, in a moment to breathe, asks, *"Who are you?!"* (Showing the audience he's detected Kai is not a guard) Kai, on the ground, catches his breath, and shoots the question right back. *"Who are you?! You traitor!"* Kai gets up and continues the fight, and Ray again, defends himself. All Ray can get out is a confused, *"Traitor?!"* Kai, in his rage as he tries to assault his dad, vents to him (because that's in character) *"I thought you were a hero! I looked up to you! I wanted to BE you! I was a fool!"* Ray, again, gets the upper hand and knocks Kai to the ground, throwing away Kai's weapon (thing). Ray demands, as an act of mercy, *"I don't know what you thought of me, but stand down. This doesn't have to end badly."* Kai flinches from his spot, emotions of rage, confusion, sorrow, and vengeance written all over him. He takes off his mask to catch his breath. Ray's eyes widen a little, but he still can't recognize his kid. (Because Kai was left as a toddler. He wouldn't know right away.) Confusion starts to ride his face as well. (We can tell from just his expression that he's detecting this is a young fellow, a teen, in a state of grief.) Still, Kai clenches his fist, now in resolve on his stance. Ray sees and raises his hammer. He tries to demand again, *"Stand down-"* Then Kai's hands start spewing fire. That's when Ray, having it all hit on him at once, drops the hammer. Kai gets up and holds out his fiery hand towards Ray. Ray is devastated by this. He's stepping back. He's breathing heavily. And as he stares into his attacker, he says a soft, *"...Kai?"* Kai then slashes fire, and Ray is barely able to defend himself from a nearby helmet on the shelf. At this point, Nya is on the other side of the locked door, and she's trying to break in. Her pleads are heard muffled in the background. *"Kai! Stop! He's our father! Kai, please! Don't do this!"* But the focus is still on Kai trying to strike down his now unarmed father, who has stopped trying to fight back. Ray pleads, *"Kai, I can explain! It's me. Your father!"* Kai screams out, trying to strike him, *"My father wouldn't have left me! My father wouldn't have turned his back on Ninjago! My father would've been there for me!"* Then he manages to pin Ray to the wall and grab him. His face is filled with grief. Kai finishes it with a sad, *"He wouldn't be my enemy."* He raises his fiery hand. And then Nya busts in the room and spews water at Kai to put the flame out. She pleads, *"Kai, put him down!"* Kai demands, *"Stay out of this, Nya!"* Nya, instead of engaging, BEGS, *"He's my father, too."* Ray, in another wave of shock, says weakly, *"Nya...?"* Nya's beg touches Kai, and his serious angry face softens in regret. Ray touches that regret more by saying,* "I missed you so, so much... your mother and I, we wanted to come back to you, I promise we did, but... Krux... I wasn't a father. I... I'm so sorry... If I could undo the past... I'd put up a better fight to be there for you." * Kai is touched, almost changing his mind about taking down Ray. Almost. It's only for a few seconds, as Kai decides, *"That doesn't matter now."* Kai holds up another fiery fist. Nya screams in plead, *"KAI-!"* But then, before Kai could do any more blows, Maya storms into the room. And the first thing she does is throw her arms around Kai in a tight hug. It lets Ray go, and it leaves Kai in a stunned shock. All Kai can do is give a soft, *"...mom?"* Maya continues to hug her kid tight, emotionally overwhelmed. She begs, *"Please stop this, son..."* Nya, still standing by the door, also in surprise, realizes, *"Mom?!"* Maya then notices Nya, and parts one arm from Kai to allow Nya to run into the hug. It's worth of note that Kai isn't hugging her back. Kai's hand was still sparking from flames when Maya came in. But now with both water-powered family members in this hug, we see the sparks from his hand get extinguished as he's overwhelmed by their embrace. Kai then tries to wrap his head around it. He asks, *"Why did you leave us? Why did you leave me?"* Maya parts with her kids, explaining briefly, *"We were forced to. Your father and I, we..."* Kai processes, *"Krux."* Maya says, *"It doesn't matter now. Whatever happened, it doesn't matter now. You've grown up. Both of you. I could never imagine..."* Nya hugs Maya again, but Kai holds back. He looks over at Ray, who is still by the wall trying to catch his breath. Kai looks over at the girls, then back at his dad, then the girls again. He backs up into a corner, clearly sick with dread over what he had almost done. This is his family, and he almost assassinated them. It was a state of him giving in to Krux's taunts and a corrupt mindset. He covers his mouth with his hand and crashes into the shelf of helmets. The helmets clatter before him, which draws the family's attention to him. He's kneeled down and dreadful, and a single tear falls from his face. (Kai has never cried in the show up until this, so it would be effective.) All he can get out is a tearful, *"I'm sorry... I'm sorry... I'm so sorry... I'm sorry dad... I'm sorry..."* Over and over again. As this happens, Ray gets up and approaches his kid. He softly ruffles his boy's hair to get his eyes onto him. Ray sheds a smile of forgiveness, and he hugs his kid tight. Soon Maya joins in as well to help calm down her son. The three of them share a warm embrace in their reunion. (Seriously, am I the only one who was bothered that Kai didn't apologize for trying to assassinate his family? I know they'd forgive him, but still.) Once they part, Nya asks, "Did Krux force you to do all of this?" And then we get Maya telling them essentially the same story from the original about how they forged the time blades, Krux wanted revenge so he took them away, yaddy yada. By the end of said flashback story, Kai has calmed down, and they're seated by the helmet mess together, so there's easy access to the 'helmet stamp' part of the story. The original scene was SO CLOSE to being great. Dialogue and subtext makes all the difference to being the power of the scene home.

Just doing my incredibly underpaying job

How can I ever live with myself after committing such a terrible sin

Great Video BTW but I'm not a fan of how you rated season 5 ep 7 Still really great

Chinese version of Day of the Departed, you can find it on this very website

There are English versions of the Operation Heavy Metal shorts and I watched a subtitled version of the Chinese DOTD that can be found on this very website

@@nathanschannel Alright thanks for letting me know:)

Yes.

Guess it found a ladder

Just trying to be fair

what

Dude honest to god I loved Skybound. I think it’s so underrated (Whole djinn thing is definitely dumb but I *live* for the Jay development)

@@featherlight2652 Except Jay loses that development. I think he was funny in the first ten seasons, but then he was ruined. I like Skybound more now than I did when it came out, but I think part of it is that getting this after season four and five just felt like a huge downgrade.

Really bad opinions imo. For me....

​@@bowserbreaker2515 jay didn't really have any development before skybound.

I humbly kneel before you and ask with sincerity for you to forgive my foolish blunder

@@nathanschannel 😂😂😂

That season is so forgettable

@@darthyoda4934 and just a Skybound clone

Yes way
