A surprise to see this


Hawkers_epicYT

*surpriseeee*


Pepsi_Boy_64

No one. Absolutely no one


sweetthekurt

Yeah! They are all too good!

Lank_Master

Lloyd. I don’t hate him, but he just needs to take a backseat so the other ninja can actually shine


redditusarr_

that’s so true cuz they focus on Lloyd wayy to much like when his introduction came I understood but like it’s not every season he should be


tmtmdragon04

He's the main character and the leader of the team. Of course they're going to focus on him since he's the overarching main protagonist of the series.


CadenWasHere

Nya. Still strongly believe she was better as SamX and they completely ruined both the reasons behind making her that(you don't need powers or to be a ninja to help people). She's a little better in Dragons Rising, but still my least favorite out of the og six.


Gjallar-Knight

Didn’t she “not want to be apart of a boy band” I’m the first place? Why didn’t the creators build on that?


CadenWasHere

Exactly. Instead of building on that they just went completely against it.


cigarettesandmemes

Yeah this 100%, when she was Samurai X she was able to be strong and hold her own without having any special powers or anything, making her a Ninja undermined all her development over the previous seasons and felt like it was only done to service that seasons plot and to throw in a cheap twist


Captain_Izots

I feel mixed about Nya being a ninja. On one hand I think Samurai X suited Nya better as she got to forge her own destiny and all that, but on the other hand I think I see why the writers decided to change that. I feel like considering Nya is the only girl of the team, having her be a different rank than the boys might send some messages about boys and girls not being able to do the same things, so the writers just decided to make her one of the main ninja in order to achieve gender equality or something. That or the writers wanted to use Nya more often, I don't know, I'm just speculating here.


CadenWasHere

Or maybe they could have just, idk, brought in a new female character as the water ninja? If they were just doing it for gender equality sake that would have made more sense.


First-Concern-4600

Wouldn’t make sense because there parents were the Fire and Water elementals


EM-Pyrus_Steel

Didn't that reveal only happen after Nya got powers? Could've just not written it.


First-Concern-4600

I guess but im fine with it either way


tmtmdragon04

yeah they should have kept her as a sam x honestly. Making her a ninja kind of ruined the reason for her being the sam x in the first place


No_Masterpiece6261

Jay They focused on him a lot more than they should have during seabound. They should have gave more time to Kai because Nya is his sister. but idk I like all of them.


Both_Blacksmith7263

I agree, I love Jay but Kai was Nya's BROTHER, he took care of her for years since he was a child. We needed to see way more of Kai during Seabound and in Crystalized about how losing Nya affected him, also Ray and Maya.


PnutButterJellyTim3

Agreed.


Lank_Master

That was my biggest peeve with Crystalised and Seabound


GUIPAgames

Not really, Skybound was about their romantic relationship as much as it was about Jay or Nya individually, plus Hands of Times focused a ton in their sibling dynamic and their relationship with their parents


MiloSheba

OP said *Sea*bound, not *Sky*bound


GUIPAgames

Oh my bad, yeah that’s fair then


cHezzA72

Lloyd


Striker-the-duck

I feel like Lloyd’s character was ruined after the character designs were changed


Blackinfemwa

Nya, i liked her better when she was Samurai X


Charismabby

I don’t knowwwww. I like all of them 😊❤️


JoeMcMoney

Honestly, lloyd. It isn't Jay because he is the main ninja in my favorite season


MandoMahri

None


CurveAny782

Depends on season


Visible-World2755

Nya. She was a good samurai and I think even if she had her power she could’ve been a better samurai than ninja


Welsh_Boi_123

Nya


ZaneWasTakenWasTaken

why nya jeez


Welsh_Boi_123

It’s not that I dislike her I just like all the others the most


Ender_IIII

Lloyd. I mean I appreciated him in the early seasons of Ninjago, but now he's just an unfunny dude who loses constantly. He and the CW Flash aren't so different, they lose constantly and end up beating the bad guy eventually. Plus, his new voice actor is just... not for me. Overall, Lloyd is just not in my top tier list for favourite Ninjago characters. He's unfunny, annoying to see on screen, and didn't deserve to be the Green Ninja.


Splatfan1

lloyd. angst + constant focus on him is a terrible combo


Annual_Sport1130

Seasons 1-7 I think none they are all extremely good s8-16? Definitely jay i cannot stand him


Mother_Cellist_7434

Independent_Tutor_29

Jay. I used to hate him so much now I think I’ve moved to just not liking him as much as the rest


dart_shitplagueis

I love them all, but my (slightly) least favourite is - please don't stone me for it - is probably Kai


Ok_Training_4076

I don't like kai post-season 7 because they made him (alongside Jay) a lot goofier. He lost all character development and just became a background character in all honesty. The most important character arc he's had is just losing his powers and realizing he can still help (only to get his powers back anyway). Thankfully, through teaching Wyldfire, we finally get to see a more serious side to kai for the first time in a while. I'm really hoping that Dragons Rising continues to build upon the characters that have been ruined over time


Lastbourne

Yeah I'm in a similar boat but after rewatching the first 7 seasons I forgot how competent he was


SkyroKn

Good to see pretty much everyone agrees Kai, Zane and Cole are peak - the rest are for the streets


Rednetic

Fr fr they’re valid


Sem_nome_criativo

Jay But I still like him a lot, just like the other ninjas


PheonixTheInterestid

Lloyd, he’s just to basic


Additional_Road_9031

Jay


Cdave_22

Jay I like him, but compared to the others he’s my least favorite.


[deleted]

Nya, she was batter as a samurai.


UltraCreeperr

Sora and Arin, they just added random characters? I don't support how they shift the storyline, this started with the Island, and now it feels like they ran out of ideas


The_Hiders

Lloyd does get annoying


Mister_Moho

I hate to say it, but Jay. I do still like him, but he was so shady in Skybound.


LeonardoTheTurtle17

Easy Nya


Big_____C

Nya, because I hate women.


jaykofettpc

Based


Captain_Izots

I don't respect your perspective, but I respect your boldness for saying that.


Organic-Water9578

Nya


dying_inside-

jay. ive kind of always just had beef with him since the pilots only because of his relationship with nya and how that affects kai like, kai just saved his sister from being kidnapped and doesnt even get a hug from her, but some dumbass kid does?? jay is the literal embodiment of "wheres my hug at" and somehow nya liked it. smh.


fandom_watcher

I like all of them but if I had to choose it would be Jay he's annoying


Ronyx2021

Jay is so annoying


KaiSen2510

Jay, I just find him so annoying. Plus his relationship with Nya is by far my least favourite in the entire show aside from Lloyd and Harumi.


adnanosh123

Love them all. But my least fave is jay. Don’t understand the hate behind Lloyd and Nya tbh


sempre_Io

For nya I agree, but Lloyd? He only deserves hate from s11


FlamingDasher

he was incredibly annoying in s15 for me


GeoGackoyt

Lloyd he's to overrated


Somesonicfan

Jay. He's just kinda meh, imo. He had some very good jokes in Willfilm Era tho. But Jay in Wildbrain seasons is absolutely horrible, I dispise him, he's so fucking annoying. He's whole personality is "haha,look this is a grown man acting like a child!" and "he loves Nya". I hope DR fixes that, eventually.


1zeye

I know this is a hot take... Buuuuuuuut, Jay. He's an annoying one note character nowadays


DeltaTeamSky

"No, you're far too valuable to risk. It should be someone expendable... like Jay."


1zeye

Very true


DeltaTeamSky

I love how just when I start to think Kai's losing his sauce, he drops another banger line. I started watching Dragons Rising a bit ago, and stopped abruptly for some reason, but I dropped dead at >!Kai's spot-on impression of Wu. It was even funnier for me, because in me and my siblings' Ninjago Fandub, my sister voiced both Kai and Wu.!< (Added spoiler text for those who haven't watched DR and don't know about Peak Comedy.)


CultOfBeats

Yeah. He’s not my least favourite but it doesn’t make sense that he’d get more annoying as he grows up, which is what happened.


TemporaryAcc213

not a hot take


FlamingDasher

He could go through a big personality change because unlike zane, memory loss is much more impactful to him because he is a human. its fair to assume that he was with administration ever since he lost his memory. Im looking forward to seeing whats going to happen to him


343giultyspark

Jay


SealWasAHurricane

😔


Ravengirl081403

I like all, but Jay just cause the writing failed him. Also, I don’t mind her, but I wish that Nya wasn’t a Ninja to teach that, even if you don’t have any unique powers, you can still make a difference.


Turnip-Lopsided

Kai I still love him but I feel he is kinda overrated for what he is. Now why do I have Kai? Because in the earlier seasons I kinda disliked some moments because I felt that at times he could have gotten a little too cocky or arrogant. Now I don't feel like Kai has gotten as cocky as he used to be in fact He actually started to grow on me in fact my favourite season is a Kai season but out of the rest I feel like he is still my least favourite


TheElectricDoggo

Kai, but I don’t hate him. He’s just the one I like the least.


lukeyboi2102

Kia. I’m going to be killed in 5 minutes


Ry_2005

Kai. He’s my least fav because his are the most annoying out of all the ninjago fans


Maverick8358

Since when is PixAL a ninja? But to answer your question, Nya. I think she was far better not having powers, hell she made a freaking mech to be on par with the others.


Fit-Process-1899

Kai


Rayne_yes

Nya


Franjo5000

Tbh. Pre S8 every ninja was at least good. After it no ninja reaches good. From S8 i dislike Lloyd the most.


TxchnxnXD

Kai


EMITURBINA

Lloyd, he steals too much of the screen time and is an ass for most of his lines between the movie and crystallized


tmtmdragon04

How is he an ass? Also why are fans shocked when the main character gets the most screen time? Thats literally how most shows work?


EMITURBINA

Except Ninjago is not like most shows in the sense that they have full seasons that supposedly focus on someone of the main cast, the WildBrain era had 1 for each character (With half of s11 for Kai and half for Zane) but only 2 of the seasons are really focused on the poster one instead of Lloyd, this was also a problem before s10 but not nearly as noticeable


tmtmdragon04

Yes they have focus characters eachseason but they still have an overarching main protagonist and overarching main antagonist. Lloyd is still the overarching protagonist of the show. Thats literally been set up since season 1. The overarching main antagonist is the overlord. Not to mention Lloyd is the leader of the team of course he's going to get more screen time then the others. The screen time argument makes no sense because the thats literally how shows work.


NickLookalike

Jay I loved his character before the movie. Then he got freckles, and everything went downhill. I also geel like his and Nya's relationship is more focused on then the relationship between Kai and Nya. Jay was also a mechanic at the start, a very cool trait if his that was just dropped. And another thing, his voice. It became so child-like. In the start it was great, but overtime it became so exaggerated.


Kasim1228

I love all the Ninja and I would replace or remove any of them. But, I do think it might have been better if Nya stayed as Samurai X. I loved her being a Ninja in skybound and that whole ark with her and Jay. But her becoming a Ninja did kind of feel like bs. There definitely were better ways they could have handled her character.


Chuchubits

Kai… unless we're counting WyldFyre. Then WyldFyre.

Street-Hat7340

Greenvelvet16

Don't really dislike any, or least favourite. Hard to have favourite also. Except....Kai....😍 lol But least favourite? If I HAD to pick, I guess redesign Lloyd. I liked kid Lloyd, and even older Lloyd from previous version better. I don't dislike Lloyd, I just I like redesign Lloyd a bit less. Something about his personality is just different. But as I said, I don't dislike any of them, and don't get why anyone does. I love them all for different reasons, and for the same reason- they are all fundamentally good people who value family, and friendship. Jay is annoying? Yeah, a bit, but he's also super funny, and endearing. His parents were adorable, and the show needs to bring them back. Cole loves cake, which has been funny also. He is reliable, and soft hearted. Zane is just plain sweet, in a wholesome sort of way. Though I feel he was better before he became the 'titanium ninja' honestly. Not a fan of the voice change either from normal to robotic like. Lloyd is so strong, and has overcome so much, yet still manages to take the higher ground. Nya is feisty, and brings a needed different perspective to the mostly boys group. People don't like KAI?? Why?? I think he's one of the most underrated. I feel like people only initially liked him because he was the 'main' ninja. The 'cool' one. They say he lacks depth, but I'm sorry, that's expressly not true. Nor is he cocky. Just self assured. Yes, being confident, and being arrogant are different. He's not arrogant at all, and he has spent his entire life in service of others, never hesitating to help. He loves himself, but he'd never put himself before doing the right thing. He is loyal, caring, and brave. His values are strong. His family is everything. Some people are not seeing this I think. Plus he can also be very funny, and make fun of himself, and joking about his good looks is charming rather than obnoxious. I'm sorry, but 'Of course I'm at the hospital, my hair is 'SICK.'....lol that was GOLD.


Superb_Asparagus_344

idk i always liked them all in different ways but probably kai (who i adore)


Enchanteddominusghos

Lloyd he is a "HILLARIUS" DAMMASS that destroyed kais hole career, gave him literal nightmares, fought against him, also he is a bitchy little prick not to be trusted he always cries and always gets the limelight also he is ok with a terrorist harumi getting let cree with out charge and his hair cut is ass also to weak for god grandson


EzzyRifty

Lloyd the little brat


CurveAccurate9716

Lloyd


CultOfBeats

I’m going to get hate for this but Lloyd. All of his character development from when he was a kid to when he grew up was purposefully skipped, he has the least personality and is always treated like he’s the most important one out of all of them because of his chosen one arc in season 2. There was really some potential to make him a much more darker character but that never came.


ScorchedConvict

Jay. Don't hate him, he just never clicked with me like the rest.


lukepc1

Jay he’s just kinda annoying


MiloSheba

Jay, mostly because they stripped away almost all of his defining characteristics and the writers' belief that he can only shine if all of the other Ninjas are gone.


CancelThat6560

"all of them" https://preview.redd.it/mceoeo9bvv7c1.png?width=543&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=7a526c6ac96601d525af60fad07e05dd2c63419c


KitKat_Kat28

Jay


Planet_842

Jay has always been my least favourite ninja (yes even in the early seasons) and the most annoying too. He's rude, overdramatic, self centered, immature, yells a lot and says stupid and unnecessary things. He gets on my nerves the most and I especially hate it when he's rude to or yells at Zane who's the one that least deserves being rude to, like just stfu Jay. Can't stand how everyone loves him so much (pre triggered Jay fans) and his fans in general are the most annoying along with Kai's. Nya is also a close second least favourite, I find her annoying too and the show focuses on her too much later on. I don't really care for their relationship that much either. Favourite ninja is Zane though and always will be.


TheBlueNinja2006

The fact that I've been called funny, but also annoying many times is probably why I relate to Jay so much lol 😅


JLD-here

Why does everyone hate Jay?! It's obviously that orange girl from the tournament season. Traitorous bitch


Additional_Road_9031

>Why does everyone hate Jay?! Because of how childish he is in s11-15


Plo-Koon72

Gonna be the first to say Nya. I thought she was annoying before the reboot now I think she's pretty good I'm just not as attached to her as the others because of her late start


AceSapling

Jay season 11 onwards. He's been my favorite up until then but he became way too childish


Muted_Ad3018

Sora. She’s cool and all but she’s kind of annoying. Plus IMO her elemental power is weird. I still like her, I just like her the least.


Tsunamai-time

Lloyd and why are we hating on jay


Additional_Road_9031

>and why are we hating on jay Because he is too childish


Tsunamai-time

I disagree he arguably gets the most development of all of them. And he is funny.


Additional_Road_9031

>And he is funny. Was in s1-10 after that he started acting like a baby


Tsunamai-time

I disagree jays he works well in s11 s12 s14 (Sorta he was hit or miss)


Additional_Road_9031

>(Sorta he was hit or miss) For me he was a miss he was way more funnier and actually a good charachter in s1-10. I hope they fix his charachter in Dragons Rising so that i can enjoy him again because he used to be one of my favourite charachter. They managed to fix Kai, Lloyd and Nya for me so i hope Jay can get some good development aswe


[deleted]

Probably Nya, and that's because I think she should have stayed a samurai. (Case and point: Hattori Hanzō.)


Bucaneer7564

Pixel. She’s not a ninja,


redditusarr_

pixel is great but I think she is better as a side character then a ninja


grasboompje

Idk if Skylor counts, but Skylor. I wish they'd done her differently and that she didn't just serve as a love interest for Kai in the end.

to be real, its gotta be kai the last "kai" season was hands of time but if you want to get even more real the last kai season where he didnt have to share his spotlight was tournament of elements and you could argue the pilots since in season 3 cole also has his moments, they just havent done much with him even his family drama got immediatly ~~fixed~~ transferred to nya in seabound

Warm-Astronaut-8436

Xandoog

I like all of them but I swear kai should've been the green ninja not that troublesome little brat, Lloyd is alot better now but I'll never forgive him for that


uranusostridge

I don't really have any of them but I have nitpicks with each one Kai- I guess Kai would be my least favorite. He just doesn't do much as of recently. He also kind of just turned into a second comedy relief character. Obviously every ninja is allowed to be funny, but humor was never Kai's main thing. Dragons Rising is addressing this so that gives me optimism. Zane-this one pains me to put here. I wish I had more to do for the team than be 'the robot'. Lloyd- not much to be mad about except him in Crystalized didn't have many brain cells. Jay- I think I'm still holding on to Jay in the wilfilm era to justify him being this high.(also we have the same name so I'm biased). But dude used to be funny. He was funny not stupid. Also idk if anyone had pointed this out but his voice gets much higher throughout the series. People forget this, but Jay is a mechanic. He designed the boosters for the bounty so it can fly with the help of his dad. Nya- probably the best arc in the show going from a damsel in distress- >samurai x->water ninja was crazy. Also out of the ninja she might have the best control over her power. Also her and Jay are so cute. Cole- perfect character. Had remained consistent in a good way. The only time hits character was annoying was in season 3 with the love triangle. Other than that, he is the heart of the group, and I love him for that as for Arin, Sora, Wildfyre and Riyu we'll see as the show continues. So far I like them all.


Ashyboi13

Zane. I feel like recently his character’s been very one-note. I feel like he really needed a real focus season in the newer era that he just never got.


Sufficient_Season_59

I dont know i like all the ninjas but if i had to pick one id probably go either jay or cole there good but sometime fight a lot


Goldwater54

The brown ninja he is kinda overrated to me


Extra-Leadership-522

After season 10 and before dragons rising Kai was my least favorite but now he is AWESOME🔥. Now tho... I'd have to say Zane❄️. I like him I just think the other ninja are better. It's either him or nya 🌊

Zane

Your opinion is wrong


[deleted]

Lloyd pre dragon rising,Jay after crystallized


Coyote_prime323

Lloyd. They gave him too much character so now he has none. If they thought of a character trope, they added it to Lloyd. Now he feels like an attempt to stay relevant, and although I love him as a character, he doesn’t have the same personality, slowly becoming a one-note action hero.


Certain_Thing_6320

Lloyd


Afraid-Account-4029

Probably an unpopular opinion, but Kai. It would be Zane if he wasn’t so great in seasons 1-3

Blackhole360

Ngl Lloyd he's just kinda annoying but he's ok. After the whole thing with harumi I started hating him like bro get over it. He was fr better in the first two seasons


Zawisza_Czarny9

Jay. They took everything from him and infantelized him . I'm my opinion he should stay as a ninja who tinkers, and balance it by making him more of a social dumbass, plus being back split eyebrow


IceysheepXD

would say Nya but Shes mid as hell since she got removed from samurai x status. Honestly Jay. I love jay but since season 10 bro has been awful. Dude is a watered-down version of what he was. Everyone acts like a watered-down jay with different voice tones. Jay has honestly been ruined so hard and it sucks to see him like that.
