    IGNITION

    omg that is super rad congrats guys C:
  23. I am 200% okay with this. (also I get the feeling that the guys behind the review board are huge sci-fi nostalgia nerds)
  24. This is exactly it yeah!! This wasn't a deliberate and malicious attempt to water down and appropriate eastern culture, but the fact is that all these misconceptions are very ingrained in western thought and a lot of people simply don't realize it's happening even as they create material that perpetuates these motifs. It was definitely an accident, but we should strive to become aware of it so it doesn't happen again. I think that's really all we can do in regards to a situation like this. I don't think anyone is turning into a "reactionary apologist." Nothing is perfect in this world, and Ninjago fits into the category of imperfection. I reserve the right to like and enjoy Ninjago despite its flaws, but I don't think that should blind me to any flaws it does have. you get it yes exactly you can like something and accept that it has problems and be aware that it can improve
  25. I generally try to stay out of these kinds of topics, but I wanted to highlight Sir Kohran's post here because I haven't seen anyone yet address this (in my opinion) very good point yet. I think it would be best if we could get the perspective of some actual Japanese Lego fans on this issue. Not sure how, though. Maybe find a Japanese Lego fansite and contact its members and see what they think of Ninjago (unfortunately I don't know of any Japanese Lego fansites, but it still seems like a good idea to me if anyone wants to try it). -TNTOS- I would like to point out that Kahi, who is of East Asian descent, provided his perspective on the topic, though I do not know if Japanese is in his lineage. I would love the input of some Japanese fans on this, though I do think that disregarding all points made because of this single point would be foolish. No, you're right: the points you've brought up on cultural appropriation and broad ignorance of the issues are entirely valid, but in the end the feelings of those directly affected by said ignorance and appropriation are what matter most. However, a large portion of this topic has been speculation from a group of westerners and if given the choice I would rather side with caution and admit my underqualification to speak on behalf of either side of the topic rather than to defend ignorance on the ground that it allows me to have my fun. also yo, just because the damage was unintentional does not excuse it. It's our job as a fanbase to point out mistakes and how they could be improved rather than to be apologists for every mistake we find in what we enjoy. Awareness and sensitivity does not have to detract from our ability to enjoy it. Ninjago was created through ingrained cultural ignorance that was not intentionally malicious, but the fact remains that it has its flaws and it's okay to admit that it could stand a measure of respect for the source of its inspiration, particularly where actual people and personal religious symbols are concerned. The damage wasn't intentional but I don't think that's the point being made here. The fact is that it happened and people should be more aware of it in order to prevent ignorance of sensitive topics in the future. So people can get offended at almost anything. Does that mean we should stop trying to better ourselves because "where does it end?" No. It means we recognize when that offense is a very real and valid concern that can harm people and their culture as a whole, and we take action to prevent ourselves from making those mistakes in the future. If someone gets offended at something trivial that has no bearing on anyone's life or well-being then you can well brush it off as an overly-sensitive opinion, bu otherwise take care to avoid becoming an apologist for harmful ideas and actions, intentional or not.
