The amount of misoginy in Ninjago especially in the earlier seasons isn't talked about enough because "oh it's a lego show for kids" YEAH BUT YOU COULDVE ATLEAST TREATED NYA AS HER OWN PERSON AND NOT JUST SOMEONES LOVE INTEREST??
I remember Nya saying in Skybound "yeah i'm a girl but I'm also alot of other things" and "you both seem so determined to have a future with me, but what choice do I have in all of this?" (Or something like that) AND THOSE LINES ARE FOREVER ENGRAVED IN MY SKULL
I can't stand it when I see people hate Nya because "she's just a girl" "she's weak" "she ruins the show" "she's the girl ninja" as if the whole point of Skybound was not to prove that she is worthy of fighting by the other ninjas side, wether she was a woman or not. Gender does not determine anything. She has worked SO hard to prove that she is more than just a girl. Nya is Nya. Not "the girl" not "Kai's sister" not "Jay's girlfriend". NYA.
