Ninjago Rewrite - World Building
For worldbuilding, thanks to new information provided by Dragons Rising, we have a better idea of how the other realms came to be, but in this case it's important to focus on Ninjago in the moment.
The worldbuilding is a problem because it's as if every supposedly important new place in Ninjago was only introduced in the season in which they are important. For example, ninjas have no way of not knowing about Shintaro since, Apparently...
Shintaro is located close to Sticks City and The Waling Alps! Both locations introduced in Possession!
[This map could very well be wrong, so don't take it too seriously, this was just the easiest map to analyze]
There's nothing wrong with new locations being introduced in different seasons, but it's a problem because it ends up being inconsistent.
And I know world-building wasn't on the show's writers' minds as it was initially only supposed to be two seasons, but that will be taken into consideration as I'm rewriting Ninjago as if the lore and world-building were already planned.
A more concrete way to introduce these elements that would be important later is to actually give a basis that this universe is broader than we know. Like, we don't know much about the culture of these different kingdoms, just the little that was shown to us and for me it wasn't quite good enough.
Just a mention of other realms like Shintaro and the jade palace might work, speaking of the jade palace...
Man, how I hate the poorly explained inclusion of the palace and the royal family! Like, just including them in the story as background and world-building information would be enough for the inclusion of the palace to be realistic!
We will do it this way, the palace has existed there since the founding of Ninjago, the royal family are the founders who initiated the city and that is why they are so important. The palace is not in the center but very close to the people, they are the ones who guarantee unity in the city, the mayor is the one who maintains order and the Borg family is the one who provides technology over the years. Thus creating a sense of importance for the three groups, thus making their roles as important figures in Ninjago City that much more important, Because ther ancestors were important to the founding of Ninjago City. Both in politics and technological advancement.
Another form of worldbuilding would be an engagement of social statuses for the inhabitants of Ninjago. We only see people from the lower states in Sons of Garmadon and Master of the Mountain, but other than that we haven't seen much of the rest of Ninjago.
Maybe Sticks is a poorer city because it has no connections to Ninjago City and therefore doesn't have the same resources, which would make Ronin steal to bring some of there to his beloved city.
What about the serpentines? We know that they created a society in the sewers of Ninjago City, but even after having helped defeat villains several times, they still live in the sewers?? Why didn't they try to fight for their rights to live with humans on the surface? Honestly this would be a very interesting story line to explore in the show, it could be a message about racism and discrimination, I mean, their story is already about discrimination!
They were discriminated against and treated like monsters for being different, it's no wonder they were ok with the serpentine war!
One more thing is that the island of darkness is very generic and even though it is the same size as Ninjago, it is very empty in comparison. Why after the events of the first seasons don't they try to explore more of the place? Why not become a meeting point for villains? Wouldn't it be interesting to have the villains making a base there already? Since no one goes to that place, much less the ninjas who seem to have simply forgotten about the place? I just think the island needs some use other than decoration at this point.
Why are most important places only known to ninjas or other important characters? Why not other people? Why not Cluth Powers? He's an explorer, isn't he??(and yes I will be rewriting him completely because I think it's ridiculous that they took an iconic Lego character and just made him egotistical asshole!!)
Well, in conclusion I plan to reimagine the world of Ninjago as a whole, kingdoms, cities, culture, important locations, realms etc.
That's it for now, the next part will be about elemental powers and elemental masters.

Cole got called by Master Wu, and he said "It looks like my journey is taking me elsewhere" or smth like that. And he was really sad yea blah blah but.. is he coming back?? I mean, the ninja stopped the mergequakes without him and he's been gone since but Idk for some reason I'm just really worried about my boy😭
Also, Jay had like 37 seconds of screen time and like 5 lines but.. When I saw the "spoilers" on tiktok about Jay losing his memory, I didn't really believe that. But.. he DID remember the ninja and that he was a ninja.. wouldn't he be wearing his gi? And looking for them? Why would he get a job in some place? Idk, it's just concerning and waiting for the next season is actual agony😭
