Timeline

*This is a timeline for the in-universe events. For a timeline of the canon installments in the series, see here.*
*Not to be confused with the element, Time.*
 *“The dragon had the power to create. The Oni had the power to destroy. Their war was never ending. But a child arrived, born of both worlds. The child understood the power of both. Without one, you could not have the other. But when the Oni and the dragon fought over which side the child should choose, the child abandoned their world to start a new one called Ninjago.”*
— Mystake telling the beginning of the Sixteen Realms, "The Oni and the Dragon"

The **timeline** is a chronological list of the important events that have occurred in the known history of the world of Ninjago and the other realms.

## Beginnings of the Sixteen Realms

* The First Realm, the Realm of Oni and Dragons, comes into being, or simply had always existed.
* Realms—the Underworld, the Realm of Madness, the Cloud Kingdom, Djinjago, the Cursed Realm, Chima, the Departed Realm, the Never-Realm, and 7 other unknown realms were created.
* The Cursed Realm and Djinjago become sister realms.
* The monks of Cloud Kingdom take a role in several of the realms' events, helping guide, though not necessarily controlling, their destiny.
* At some point in time, the Oni and dragons fight in the first realm, and sometime later, the First Spinjitzu Master, a hybrid between dragons and Oni, was born.
* The First Spinjitzu Master, together with the Firstbourne, the mother of all dragons who can blast all elements from its mouth, create the Dragon Armor and the Dragonbone Blade to end the war between the dragons and the Oni. Legends told that the owner of the Dragon Armor would be able to control Firstbourne, like the First Spinjitzu Master did.
* After failing to end the war, the First Spinjitzu Master escapes from the Realm of Oni and Dragons. Firstbourne was left behind in the Realm of Oni and Dragons, waiting for the First Spinjitzu Master to come back.

## Thousands of years ago

### Pre-Ninjago

* The First Spinjitzu Master arrived in a realm engulfed in chaos, caused by a giant serpent named Wojira. He decided that if the world was to be a peaceful realm, he must defeat it, so he worked alongside the Merlopians and the Keepers to fight her.
* The First Spinjitzu Master struggled to beat Wojira, a powerful sea serpent commanding the elements of Water and Wind, but was soon defeated by her. As a last resort, the first Elemental Master of Water, Nyad, attempted to pry the Storm Amulet and Wave Amulet from Wojira's head, but had to resort to merging with the ocean forever to do it. With the sources of her power torn away from from her, Wojira fell into a deep sleep and wouldn't be awakened again for thousands of years.
* The First Spinjitzu Master gave the Storm Amulet to the Keepers and Wave Amulet to the Merlopians.
* The First Spinjitzu Master forges the Golden Weapons in the Temple of Light with gold from the Golden Peaks.
* With the 4 weapons, he creates the island of Ninjago.
* Sometime after the First Spinjitzu Master fled from the Realm of Oni and Dragons and created Ninjago, the Oni pursued him, creating the Oni Temple.
* The First Spinjitzu Master battles the Oni, which included the three Oni warlords, in Ninjago with the help of Mystake, who is also an Oni who came to Ninjago from the Realm of Oni and Dragons.*[citation needed]*
* When the Oni are defeated, the warlords' three Oni Masks - the Masks of Vengeance, Deception, and Hatred - are left in Ninjago, and over time, the three masks are separated to different places.

### Stone Wars: The First Battle of Ninjago

* The First Spinjitzu Master's evil counterpart, the Overlord, manifests himself in the shadows and declares war to decide the fate of Ninjago.
* Though the Overlord lacked a physical form, he only grew stronger.
* The Stone Wars: the Overlord creates the Stone Army to combat the First Spinjitzu Master, as well as the Temple of Fortitude to fortify against the Golden Power. To combat the Overlord, the First Spinjitzu Master uses the power of the Golden Dragon and Golden Mech to fight him off.
* Unable to stop the Overlord, the First Spinjitzu Master splits Ninjago into two parts (Ninjago and the Dark Island), with the Overlord banished to the Dark Island and the Stone Army entombed underneath Ninjago City, leaving the ultimate battle between good and evil yet to be finished.
* The First Spinjitzu Master creates the Realm Crystal.
* The Serpentine come into existence along with humans, who colonize the land, building cities, villages, and other places.

*Note: It is possible for the First Spinjitzu Master to have brought the Serpentine from Chima as well as the humans from another realm.*

* 3,721 years before the events of "Day of the Departed":
	+ The previous Yin-Yang Eclipse occurs. Another may have appeared 3,721 years prior.

*It is unknown exactly how long ago Aspheera's attempted coup occurred. The following events were millennia ago, but they did not necessarily happen less than 3,721 years ago.*

* Mambo V becomes the leader of the Hypnobrai that would eventually be known as the Pyro Vipers.
* Before the birth of his two sons, the First Spinjitzu Master bestows upon a group of humans the powers of the elements, forming the first Elemental Masters.
* The First Spinjitzu Master and King Mambo V agree upon peace between humans and Serpentine.

### The sons of the First Spinjitzu Master

*Note: it is unknown if Wu and Garmadon had a mother.*

* Garmadon is born as the first son of the First Spinjitzu Master. He inherits the Oni's power of Destruction from his father.
* Wu is born as the second son of the First Spinjitzu Master. He inherits the dragons' power of Creation from his father, in order for the First Spinjitzu Master's children to represent balance.
* Wu and Garmadon successfully perform Spinjitzu for the first time while fighting off bullies.
* Thousands of years before the events of Secrets of the Forbidden Spinjitzu:
	+ Wu and Garmadon discover the Scrolls of Forbidden Spinjitzu as their father writes them, but he does not allow them to use it.
	+ Wu teaches Spinjitzu to Aspheera privately, after she helps him and Garmadon get out of the cell when the two crossed the line between the humans and Serpentine. Aspheera uses her new ability to briefly overthrow King Mambo V.
	+ Wu and Garmadon steal the Scrolls and use Forbidden Spinjitzu to defeat Aspheera, restoring Mambo V to power. Mambo sentences Aspheera to magical entombment until her sins are forgotten. Aspheera declares vengeance on Wu for not teaching her all his secrets and leaving her to her fate.
	+ The First Spinjitzu Master takes the scrolls back from Wu and Garmadon for disobeying him and hides them in separate unknown locations.
* At some point after this, the three move into the Monastery of Spinjitzu.
* Garmadon and Wu spar one day, but Wu loses one of the katanas over the wall of the monastery. Afraid of their father's disapproval, Wu chooses not to go after it, but Garmadon does. In the process, he is bitten by the young Great Devourer and becomes ill as its evil venom starts to affect him, even causing him to tell his father that he hates him, and blaming Wu for all that happened.
	+ While the brothers are sparring, Future Wu and the Time Twins are briefly transported outside the monastery before warping away again.

### *Spinjitzu Brothers*

#### *The Curse of the Cat-Eye Jewel*

* The First Spinjitzu Masters sends Wu and Garmadon on a journey to the northern ocean to find a tea plant that could cure Garmadon from the Great Devourer's venom.
* The next day, Wu and Garmadon leave the Monastery of Spinjitzu and head to a village as the first part of their journey.

## Centuries ago

*Note: These events are listed in no particular order.*
* The Edo Period:
	+ At some point, Yang invents Airjitzu, allowing the user to fly through the air temporarily.
	+ Yang discovers the Yin Blade, and, in a failed attempt to become immortal, turns himself and his students into ghosts with it.

* The First Spinjitzu Master locks himself in his tomb and passes away when his sons were no longer children, but at some point before this, he leaves a hidden message on his staff for Wu that will lead Wu to his final resting place where the Realm Crystal is hidden. At some point, presumably after this, the siblings gain kimonos with protection spells against evil.
* Wu and Garmadon fight and defeat Samukai.
* The Pyro Vipers eventually died off and are locked in their sarcophagi, some of which would be placed in the Ninjago Museum of History many years later.
* 200 years before the events of Skybound:
	+ The time period is marked as the era of the Stone Warrior, possibly due to Stone Warrior statues being uncovered.
	+ Captain Soto and Nadakhan's crews would clash in a battle between their ships, the *Destiny's Bounty* and *Misfortune's Keep*, with Soto proving victorious. Soto traps Nadakhan within the Teapot of Tyrahn and scatters the Sky Pirates across the Sixteen Realms, before going on to look for the whereabouts of the Island of Darkness.
	+ In his search for the Island of Darkness, Soto's crew accidentally crashes into the coast of Ninjago, causing their ship to sink and killing them.
* It may be inferred around this time a Royal Family arose in Ninjago.
* Hazza D'ur creates the Dungeons of Shintaro and is defeated later on, but his skulls and bones are left in the dungeon.
* The Sky Folk become inhabitants of the Kingdom of Shintaro.
* The Green Ninja prophecy is written in the Cloud Kingdom.

## Decades ago

* At some point, the Hypnobrai and Fangpyre were allies.
* Around 60 years before Zane was banished into the Never-Realm:
	+ Because of Aspheera, Zane ends up in the Never-Realm where he tries to repair the Titan Mech and take shelter, only to have his memories erased and be manipulated by Vex into believing that he is the rightful ruler of the land. Zane quickly overthrows the king, Grimfax, transforms his warriors into Blizzard Samurai, and takes his place on the throne as the "Ice Emperor".
	+ Zane's Blizzard Samurai commit genocide on all Yetis, but only Krag somehow survived.
	+ Vex convinces Zane to attack his former village, leaving Akita and Kataru as the only Formlings who were not frozen.
	+ Kataru gets locked in the palace's cell for many decades.
	+ Zane continues to rule for many decades.
* Over 40 years before the events of the fifth season, Morro is born.
* Around 40 years before the events of the seventh season, The Hands of Time:
	+ Dr. Julien builds Zane, the first Nindroid, and builds the Falcon as a companion.
	+ Garmadon trains under Master Chen alongside Clouse, and later, Garmadon gains the title Lord, as Chen's right hand. Chen convinces Garmadon to sign Wu's love letter to Misako as his own. Meanwhile, Wu finds Morro at the Monastery of Spinjitzu and trains him. He learns that Morro is a descendant of an Elemental Master of Wind.
	+ The Golden Weapons are placed before Morro. However, they do not glow green.
	+ Morro fails to become the Green Ninja and blames Wu for it. Wu tells him that destiny brought him there, but Morro causes chaos in the monastery because he is still very bitter and upset about it. He then runs away and attempts to find the tomb of the First Spinjitzu Master in anger.
	+ As conflicts between the Serpentine and humans arise as a result of paranoia over the Curse of the Golden Master and the Great Devourer's release and defeat,*[citation needed]* Chen takes advantage of the situation and tricks both sides into attacking each other.
	+ The five Serpentine tribes fight amongst each other, but Chen unites them. The Serpentine War begins, and Garmadon defects from Chen. Garmadon, Wu, and the Elemental Alliance fight the Serpentine, who in turn eventually split up. Garmadon realizes the potential of the Sacred Flutes, which the Elemental Masters construct, allowing humans to win the war. The Serpentine are locked away in their tombs, the Anacondrai generals are banished to the Cursed Realm, and Chen and Clouse are banished to an island far from Ninjago due to their involvement with the Serpentine.
	+ Sometime after, the Anacondrai start to get hungry to the point where they have to commit cannibalism in order to survive. It kept on going until Pythor was the only one left in the tomb.
	+ The Time Twins, Acronix and Krux, betray Wu and Garmadon and try to take over Ninjago with their power over the element of Time.
		- Ray and Maya forge the Time Blades out of Chronosteel; Wu and Garmadon use them to battle the Time Twins and absorb their power. Wu and Garmadon dispose of the Time Blades through a temporal rift as Acronix and Krux follow them and became lost in time.
		- Altered timeline:
			* Kai, Nya, Master Wu, Acronix, and Krux travel back from their present era to 40 years into the past, to shortly after the defeat of the Serpentine.
			* Wu, Garmadon, and the Elemental Masters use Obscuritea to forget the alterations caused by the time travel while Kai, Nya, Master Wu, Acronix, and Krux re-enter the temporal rift.
	+ At some point, Krux emerges from the Temporal Rift along with the Reversal Time Blade and begins plotting his revenge on Ray and Maya for creating the Time Blades, and Wu and Garmadon for stripping him and his brother off their powers and causing them to be lost in Time.
	+ Ray and Maya find the Reversal Time Blade and Wu has them dispose of it in the Boiling Sea.
* The former Elemental Master of Lightning and Cliff Gordon presumably go on their honeymoon.
* At some point after the war, Garmadon marries Misako.
* Years after leaving Wu, Morro dies in the Caves of Despair and his soul is banished to the Cursed Realm because of his actions.
* Nearly 30 years before the events of the twelfth season and 10 years after the Serpentine War, Milton Dyer, the creator of video games *Lava Zombies* and *Prime Empire*, goes into hiding.

## Recent history

* Years before the events of the thirteenth season, Lilly visits Shintaro Mountain to defeat Grief-Bringer and give the Geckles and Munce the Blades of Deliverance.

### Birth of the ninja

* Cole is born to Lou and Lilly.
* Jay is born to Cliff Gordon and the former Master of Lightning.
	+ Jay is abandoned and left at the doorstep of Ed and Edna Walker, and the couple adopts him as their own.
* Kai is born to the Elemental Masters of Fire and Water respectively, Ray and Maya.

* Vangelis takes over the Dungeons of Shintaro by using the Skull of Hazza D'ur and forcing the Geckles and Munce to mine Vengestone for him after stealing the Blades of Deliverance.

### Battle between brothers

* Around a decade before the events of Rise of the Snakes:
	+ Lloyd Montgomery Garmadon is born to Garmadon and Misako.
	+ The evil in Garmadon completely overtakes him, and it mainly manifests itself in the form of overwhelming greed. He returns to the Monastery of Spinjitzu to steal the Golden Weapons in an attempt to recreate Ninjago in his own image. Wu confronts him, and after a short battle, the combination of the four weapons and the protection spell on Wu's kimono opens a gateway to the Underworld. Garmadon is struck by lightning, blackening his skin and casting him down.
	+ Fully succumbed to the evil in his veins, Garmadon battles Samukai for command over the Skulkin army and easily wins, taking his helmet and becoming the ruler of the Underworld.
	+ Wu realizes that Garmadon will stop at nothing to get the Golden Weapons, so he hides them away in secret locations, each guarded by an Elemental Dragon. Wu then makes a map of the four secret locations so someone could find them if he perished, and gives the map to a trustworthy friend.

### After Garmadon's banishment

* Kai and Nya's parents, Ray and Maya, are taken by Krux for his plan.
* The Elemental Master of Ice arrives at Birchwood Forest and gives Zane his powers, Zane being completely unaware of this.

* In his final moments, Dr. Julien erases Zane's memories. Zane becomes an orphan, but Dr. Julien is soon revived by Samukai to construct vehicles for them (being reunited with his son as ransom). When he disagrees, the Skulkin take him to Lighthouse Island guarded by a Leviathan, to force him to design their vehicles. After he successfully complies with their demands, the Skulkin do not release him from the prison and leave him there.
* Ten years before the events of the eleventh season, Clutch Powers gives up adventuring.
* Years before the events of the first season, possibly around five years:
	+ Misako knew that destiny would take her son as the Green Ninja, so she drops off a young Lloyd at Darkley's Boarding School (in a precognitive precaution), so she can go find a way to prevent the father and son from facing each other. However, she kept in touch with him through letters.
* A few years before the events of the third season, a chunk of the Delta V comet breaks off and lands as a meteorite in Ninjago. Scientists discovered the fossilized remains of some kind of parasite embedded within it.
* Not long before the events of the pilot episodes, Cole loses his mother.

## Current era

Soon after, Samukai and his army (ordered by Lord Garmadon) attack the blacksmith in search of the Map of the Golden Weapons, and in the process manages to get both the map and kidnap Nya. Encouraged by compassion for his sister, Kai agrees to train in the art of Spinjitzu under Wu's teaching to become a ninja.

Master Wu then rescues Kai and Nya, but discover the other ninja have been ambushed by the Skeletons, with the weapons stolen. Master Wu then takes the Sword to go to the Underworld to confront his brother.
* Altered timeline:
	+ Kai, Jay, Cole, Zane and Garmadon travel to the past thanks to Garmadon wanting to alter Lloyd's future with the Mega Weapon.
* The ninja tame their respective dragons and head to the Underworld.
* Samukai and Master Wu fight for the Sword of Fire, but Samukai wields the three other Golden Weapons and wins.

### Season 1: Rise of the Snakes

* The ninja are at the monastery, playing video games rather than training. Wu removes the plug and tells them to train, but Cole plugs it back in and continues to keep on playing. However, Nya tells them that Lord Garmadon returned from the Underworld to invade Ninjago again.
* The ninja walked into the village, and they see "Lord Garmadon's shadow". But they soon realised that it was a "false alarm" and it was just his son, Lloyd Garmadon. He terrorizes the village and steals their candy but is soon suppressed by the ninja, and he gets pantsed. The villagers celebrate and all was brought back to normal.
* Seeking revenge on the ninja for humiliating him, Lloyd releases the Hypnobrai from their tomb. Lloyd accidentally tricks the Hypnobrai General, Slithraa, into hypnotizing himself and gains leverage over the tribe.
* Lloyd returns to Jamanakai Village with the entire Hypnobrai tribe. The tribe uses hypnotism to take control over the citizens. The ninja arrive to stop him and defeat the Hypnobrai, freeing the people and taking the tribe's staff. However, Skales (the Hypnobrai second-in-command) manages to post-hypnotize Cole.
* The mailman comes after the ninja were training. However, Zane finds out that he got no mail from his parents.
* When the Ninja, Wu, and Nya were eating, everyone starts commenting on Zane's pink apron and Cole starts a food fight. However, Zane is not amused.
* Zane unintentionally finds his long-lost friend; the Falcon. After another evening of feeling left out from the ninja's antics, and he follows the Falcon to find a treehouse being constructed by Lloyd and the Serpentine. He informs the ninja of his discovery, and they begin their mission to destroy it. Just before they finish the destruction, Skales uses the previous post-hypnotic command on Cole to attack the ninja. As the ninja struggle to fight Cole, Master Wu and Nya arrive on Kai's dragon, using a flute (later to be described as one of the flutes of the First Spinjitzu Master used to banish the Serpentine in tombs) to snap Cole out of his trance. The group hurry back to the unguarded monastery, only to find that the Hypnobrai had burned it down in search for their staff. Cole, Jay, and Kai blame Zane for the loss of their home, and in the ruckus, no one notices Zane flying off on his dragon.
* Slithraa and Skales get into a fight for the staff and for the title of General. The other snakes wanted a Slither Pit battle, and it happened. Unfortunately for Lloyd, Slithraa lost due to Skales using Fang-Kwon-Do. He was not able to command the Hypnobrai since then.
* Later on, the ninja try to make the best of their situation, but immediately regret what they had said to Zane. When they eat toads for dinner, Wu tells them to be grateful, while Nya finds Zane walking towards them. They were shocked that Zane had returned, and he conveyed to them that he had not been hurt by what they had said, but merely had seen and followed the Falcon again. He then leads them to where he had followed the falcon: an abandoned ship in the middle of the Sea of Sand. This would become their new home, known as the *Destiny's Bounty*. It would survive for a very, very long time.
* After being betrayed by the Hypnobrai, Lloyd uses a map of other tombs to find the Fangpyre Tomb and reawakens the Fangpyre Tribe.
* Master Wu informs the ninja that their Dragons have reached the age when they need to fly off in order to go through a stage of metamorphosis. This leaves the ninja without transportation.
* Jay and the ninja go to Ed & Edna's Scrap N Junk to visit Jay's parents, Ed and Edna, only to find out the Fangpyre have injected venom into them, and Lloyd has taken over the Junkyard.
* To fight off the Fangpyre (who's venom turns people and objects into snakes), the ninja find out they can transform their weapons into elemental vehicles (Jay's Storm Fighter, Kai's Blade Cycle, Zane's Ice Glider, and Cole's Tread Assault). They manage to get the Fangpyre Staff, which Nya extracts the anti-venom from to reverse the effects on Ed and Edna. With a bit of help from Jay's father, Jay activates the *Bounty*'s new flying function that allows them to escape the approaching Fangpyre, but the staff falls over board in the process.
* Zane has a dream about the Green Ninja rescuing him while fighting Lord Garmadon, and the 4 ninja get into an argument about who would be the Green Ninja. Wu punishes them by having to find the answer to the question, "What is the best way to defeat your enemy?"
* Lloyd finds the Anacondrai Tomb and releases Pythor, who tricks Lloyd by pretending to be his friend. He soon betrays Lloyd while the two are raiding Darkley's Boarding School for revenge, but Pythor betrays Lloyd in the middle of the raid. Wu then takes Lloyd as part of the team and even reads Lloyd a bedtime story so he will never trust a snake again. Wu finds his students right outside the cabin door, angry at him for not punishing his young nephew. He then gives the answer to the same question he asked his students in the morning.

* After following the Falcon into Birchwood Forest, Zane finds out that he and the Falcon are robots. He then fights a robot that was meant to protect intruders from any harm. Prior to this event, Zane was in shock for a while. Zane discovered a memory switch in his robotic body which leads to him remembering his creator. He protects his friends from the Treehorns and discovers his True Potential after accepting the fact that he is a robot while fighting the strong Queen Treehorn.
* Jay and Nya are at the Mega Monster Amusement Park but Jay becomes a snake after pricking his finger on a skeleton from a Fangpyre. Meanwhile, Pythor and the other Serpentine find the first Fangblade. They tie Nya to a rollercoaster and Nya reveals to Jay that she is Samurai X. After that, Jay discovers his True Potential by knowing he is the best version of himself. He then saved Nya in the nick of time by stopping the rollercoaster. After that, Jay tells the other 2 ninja that Nya is actually Samurai X.
* The ninja are searching for the second Fangblade and Cole says he has seen the Fangblade on the Blade Cup, a trophy which his father had won many times. The ninja go to Cole's father, Lou, and train to be dancers to get the Cup but the Serpentine sees it too. The ninja go to the Concert Hall of Ninjago City and win the Cup because of Cole doing the Triple Tiger Sashay, a move that was never been successfully been done by anyone, and because of their great performance. Cole was very sad after, because he was always up because his dad watches him dance. Lou comes and genuinely comforts his son by telling him that the Serpentine are evil and that he saw him dance. But Pythor steals the second Fangblade and crushes Cole and his father, leading Cole to discover his True Potential after realizing that he was born to be a ninja, not a dancer. Then, when Pythor knocked over the set of lights and cameras and stole the Blade Cup, he saved himself and his father from the set of lights and cameras.
* After all his hard training and rescuing Lloyd, Kai unlocks his True Potential in the Fire Temple upon realizing he wasn't destined to become the Green Ninja but to protect him: everyone soon realizes Lloyd is the Green Ninja and that he must face his father.

## Time skips

* As of "The Stone Army," enough time passed for Noble to state that the attack of the Great Devourer had taken place "some time back."
* At least a few weeks passed between Rebooted and Tournament of Elements.
* A year passed between the events of The Hands of Time and Sons of Garmadon.
* At least two years passed between Rise of the Snakes (or later) and Sons of Garmadon, as Mystake stated it'd "been years" since she last saw Lloyd (even though she was not shown to interact with him before that point).
* A week passed between the events of Sons of Garmadon and Hunted.
* At least six months passed between the events of March of the Oni and Secrets of the Forbidden Spinjitzu.
* At least a couple of weeks passed between the events of Secrets of the Forbidden Spinjitzu and Prime Empire.
* A short amount of time passed between Prime Empire and Master of the Mountain, as the ninja's laundry from their last adventure was not done at the start of Master of the Mountain.
* A month passed between the events of "Level Thirteen" or *Jailbreak!* and The Island.
* Between The Hands of Time and Seabound several years have passed, as P.I.X.A.L. built and began tinkering with the *Hydro Bounty* sometime after she regained a body.
* Enough time passed between The Island and Seabound for Zane to verify the memories of the information about Wojira in his database.
* Exactly one year passes between Nya's sacrifice in "The Turn of the Tide" and the first episode of Crystalized, "Farewell the Sea."

*The following time spans are based on creator statements and are not officially set in stone or defined. Note that the ninja are confirmed to be teenagers during the original series, and that the passage of time in the show is kept mostly vague.*
* The time span between the events of Legacy of the Green Ninja and Rebooted was "Not that long really."
* The longest time span between seasons, as of mid-2016, was the time span between Rebooted and Tournament of Elements.
* "Not much time passed" and it was "Not long" between the events of Tournament of Elements and Possession.
* Around three or four years passed between the events of Legacy of the Green Ninja and Skybound or "Day of the Departed."
* Around two years passed between the events of Rebooted and Skybound or "Day of the Departed."
* Not much time passed between Possession and "Day of the Departed," as "ghosts cannot remain in Ninjago for long without a vessel."
* Around three to five years passed between the events of the pilot episodes and The Hands of Time.

## Continuity errors

* In Cole's flashback in "The Jade Princess," Cole says his father is never home, leaving all the chores for him. This contradicts what Cole said in "The Royal Blacksmiths," which was that he ran away from home and had kept in contact with his father through letters.
* In Zane's flashback in "Snake Jaguar," Master Wu is already in his usual appearance instead of his young design. This contradicts how Garmadon's banishment to the Underworld and Dr. Julien's death take place within a close timespan, seeing as Dr. Julien's hair is a darker gray in this episode, while it was white and he was much older when Samukai revived him as seen in "The Last Voyage."
	+ When asked about this, Tommy Andreasen stated "These answers have yet to be given" and will be revealed "Only if it relevant for the storyline."

 File:Fact about Grief-Bringer.png
* The *LEGO Life* app states that Lilly defeated Grief-Bringer fifteen years ago. Lilly would have lost her powers when Cole was born, and it is implied Lilly defeated Grief-Bringer when she still had her powers. However, Jay has stated that the ninja are "grown-up teenagers," implying a higher age than fifteen.
* In the TV series, Cole is older than Lloyd, who was born before Garmadon was banished to the Underworld. However, in a canon comic from a magazine issue, Cole's birth is placed after Garmadon's banishment, which would make Cole younger than Lloyd.
	+ Additionally, the comic shows Wu with his young appearance after the point in time when Dr. Julien was captured, even though Wu appeared as an old man when he was shown in "Snake Jaguar" to have met Dr. Julien before the latter's imprisonment.
* Despite the fact that Krux disguised himself as Dr. Saunders long before the events of the series, in Legacy of the Green Ninja, another curator is shown.
	+ According to Tommy Andreasen, this curator is "just a guy," implying there was simply more than one curator working at the museum at that point.
* The part about the Scrolls of Forbidden Spinjitzu in *The Book of Spinjitzu* differs from what is shown in the show, because according to the book, Wu and Garmadon were looking for a cookbook when they found the scroll and Garmadon wanted to use it because it "called" him. Eventually, they found the scroll and revealed its secrets.
	+ The same book also shows that Wu and Garmadon learned Spinjitzu as young adults, although they knew it as children in the show.
		- Tommy Andreasen explained that because Wu and Garmadon are thousands of years old, "‘teens’ and ‘kids’ are quite abstract when it comes to them."
* Although Vania became the queen in "The Son of Lilly," Cole still refers to her as Princess Vania in "Nyad."
* In "The Calm Before the Storm," Glutinous mentions the fake Storm Amulet from the Island of the Keepers. However, he was never told about the fake amulet nor where it came from by Kalmaar, who only replied that he got the Storm Amulet by using the same trick the ninja did to him in "The Storm Amulet."

## Trivia

* Tommy Andreasen offered "WRK" as label for the timeline, meaning "Wu Recruits Kai," referring to the first scene in the series.
* Many of the series' main events were commenced by the events of the first season.
	+ Lloyd released the Serpentine, who decided to released the Great Devourer, was finally defeated by Lord Garmadon with the Golden Weapons. Harumi also started hating the ninja, which comes into play later.
	+ The Great Devourer's death in season one caused the Stone Army to awaken in Season 2, which also led to the Overlord's final battle with Lloyd and later Zane.
	+ The Overlord's defeat left him vanquished and vengeful, and in the third season, he fought the ninja. Zane seemingly died when he destroyed the Golden Master.
		- After the loss of Zane, in season four the ninja went to find him on a mysterious island. They faced Master Chen's Anacondrai Cultists, which was banished to the Cursed Realm through Garmadon's sacrifice. However, this allowed Morro to escape.
	+ Morro possessed Lloyd in season five and went on a quest to unleash the Preeminent, the physical manifestation of the Cursed Realm. Nya drowned the Preeminent, destroying the realm and killing its prisoners (including Garmadon).
	+ Djinjago, the sister realm of the Cursed Realm, collapses due to the latter's destruction. Nadakhan seeks vengeance against the ninja, and though he succeeds, Jay uses his last wish to bring everything back to normal.
	+ The events of season seven didn't directly correlate to the previous seasons' events—rather, they were in response to events from long before the pilot episodes.
	+ Harumi, who was orphaned after the Great Devourer's rampage in season one, seeks to resurrect Lord Garmadon, who died in "Curseworld, Part II". This goal is ultimately fulfilled, and the original ninja and Wu wind up in the Realm of Oni and Dragons.
	+ The ninja try to escape the Realm of Oni and Dragons in Season 9, while Wu ages back to his normal self after season seven's events. The Resistance holds up against Lord Garmadon's rule. Garmadon is defeated but warns of coming darkness.
* Due to time travel, the ninja have been involved in multiple events that transpired before they were born.
	+ Kai and Nya fought the Time Twins after they went back in time to attempt to destroy the past Elemental Masters after their initial defeat.
	+ Zane was sent into the Never-Realm's past, where he reigned as the Ice Emperor for decades.
* In "Grave Danger," the ninja see visions decades in the future, where Jay has an eyepatch and ends up with Nya. Jay, Kai, and Zane have robes that are similar to Wu's battle uniform, possibly indicating they have become teachers themselves. Despite the ninja's changes in appearance since then, this is still set to happen in the future.
* There are several names describing long periods, such as the First Age, which was during the reign of Pyro Vipers in the Serpentine Valley and took place some thousands of years ago, the Golden Age, which was some hundred years ago and the Era of the Stone Warrior, which was during the reign of Nadakhan in the sea two hundred years ago.
	+ It is currently unknown why this period is called the Era of the Stone Warrior, as the Stone Army was defeated thousands of years ago and was not discovered until Legacy of the Green Ninja.
