What Happened to Kai?

Kai was once the main character of Ninjago, arguably the most recognizable. But in my opinion lately Kai has been feeling bland and like he's not even there anymore, when did this start? Was Kai just an overrated character to begin with? Let's discuss!

Hope you enjoyed! This a second channel for me to talk about my most annoying hyperfixation and give Ninjago's older fans more entertaining content! (So this channel is NOT meant for kids YouTube...)

Kai didn’t get a dedicated arc❎

The entire show pre-Dragons Rising was Kai’s arc✅

Pairing up Kai with Wyldfyre is probably one of the best decisions made by Ninjago, because it allows Kai to be with someone who’s on the same wavelength as him but also someone that he can teach how to control themselves.

“Jay is guilty of war crimes”

Literally the next sentence: “These examples aren’t negative.”

[picopako]

Tbh I always thought of kai's jabs at jay were specifically because he and jay were close and more brotherly in nature (considering they're basically brother in laws)

[SymphonyDaBeanD]

ngl i think kai shouldn’t have been the green ninja, but still the main character if that makes sense. Also, i was expecting jay or kai to be the most affected after nyas seabound death, considering kai “raised” nya and they were all they had growing up, but he didn’t rlly grieve as much as i though he would be

3:37 Kai’s arm clips into his body, never noticed that till now

[CakeNinja-]

From wanting to be the green ninja to protecting him, from being the angry one to a calm mentor, from very serious to trusting others Kai got the best character development ngl Kai The G.O.A.T!

5:03 "to make the legend of Zelda tears of the kingdom Lego edition-" OMG I'm dying. 😂😂😂

Kai is one of the best things about dragon's rising

[poptrop]

Great video, as always. To me, Kai's always been the "base" Ninja, the most "default" of the bunch, and so at some point, i guess the writers decided that made him the most malleable, which is why he changes so much from era to era. The Jay comedic relief bits specifically felt like they settled on the need for that dynamic FIRST and then wrote Kai to fit it. It honestly would have been better to give that role to Cole, since....he and Jay are supposed to be best friends. That type of teasing would have gone down a little better, because we know how close they are.

5:50 His logic of “my dad is evil therefore I must be evil” is hilarious

[redrex]

I feel like dragons rising really help his character growth specifically with his relationship with Wyldfyre

[sobblegaming]

I really like how kai is handled in dragons rising as he's clearly matured and become a better person and is still really cool

[lbricks]

Finally someone talking about how much better Kai was in crystalised.

[hvnsl]

Apparently some of Kai being useless can be explained by Tommy Andreasen simply just not liking writing Kai I think. Kai really improved after Tommy left so it might be true

[ReiKO]

Dragons rising has given Kai great character development 👏

[samdabestay]

I REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY HOPE JAY AND KAI WILL HAVE A MOMENT IN SEASON 3 INSTEAD OF NYA AND JAY, CAUSE THEY NEED A STRONGGER BOUND🛐

[dangerbuffrocky]

The RGB Siblings got the best character development.
