Hapori Tohu Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 Episode 6 of the BIONICLE web series has now been officially released on BIONICLE.com and can be watched from the Videos section. It seems LEGO is or was indeed aiming for a monthly release schedule. Now that the Toa have unlocked their elemental powers, the quest for Ekimu begins, as the forces are evil are growing stronger (though you can't see a lot of them). You should probably go and check it out. View the full article 4 Quote News Forums Q&A Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jobber Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 (edited) These webisodes are starting to get more and more swag. Edited March 5, 2015 by The Bone-Snatcher Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lenny7092 Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 These webisodes are starting to get more and more swag. I agree. Anyway, I love the dialogue. It is understandable and very great. Things in the webisodes are starting to get more epic. I noticed some things in this new episode: the narrator messed up Pohatu and Ouna's elements, the foreshadowing of the Lord of the Skull Spiders' eyes, and I heard Kopaka saying "Weee!" In the end of the webisode. Very funny.I believe the webisodes are indeed coming every month. I think episode 7 would come in next month, 8 in May, and 9 (aka final, as much as we know in this half of the year) in June, and soon we would see the Skull Villains and Ekimu in possibly the next webisodes. Looking forward, since I like the webisodes so far. Quote I like Lego, Bionicle, and Hero Factory! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rahkshi Lalonde Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 some of the dialogue felt kinda weird, but the overall idea still works for me, animation's still amazing. saying the elements over and over is still not. :0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

user-402520536 Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 I absolutely lost it when PoF called Tahu a fool. Best line ever. Even better than Tahu's own "GRAAAAAAAAAAAAA... [continue (27 lines)]". 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JMSOG Posted March 5, 2015 Share Posted March 5, 2015 I had an idea in my head as soon as I saw it that the element switch for Onua and Pohatu is an in-joke to the fact that G1 switched Earth and Stone by accident multiple times...Nope, they didn't slip up in this video, it was an in joke...i'll keep telling myself that...XD Anyway...this felt like a filler episode. Still good, but I can't wait for the last 3 to show up in english. 3 Quote Hi. If you remember me from when I was most active on BZP, from 2009-2011... I know I was cringy.

Nidhiki of the Shadows Posted March 6, 2015 Share Posted March 6, 2015 Despite having seen this already, it's exciting to at least hear it in English. That being said, I think the narrator is great but the voices he gives to the characters are kind of grating. The line delivery just isn't great. But as a narrator, he does a splendid job. I actually got chills when he said "Something terrible happened here once... and something even more terrible was waiting". That was so solid. Pretty cool how it's the golden masks that lead them to the city too. Definitely different than G1. Can't wait to hear the Toa's banter, next time on Bionicle! -NotS 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
General Scales Posted March 6, 2015 Share Posted March 6, 2015 Still not too keen on the fact that they need the gold masks to use their elements. Kinda clashes with their color schemes at times. lol Still, this was a cool episode. I actually didn't hear Kopaka say "Wheeee." I'll have to look back at that!

Toa Smoke Monster Posted March 6, 2015 Share Posted March 6, 2015 1. Kopaka yelling 'WWHHEEEE!'2. Tahu being called a fool.3. Onua and his continuing identity crisis. It must be another Bionicle episode! I actually didn't hear Kopaka say 'Whee' at the end of the video the first time I watched it. But on the second viewing I heard it. Does anyone else hear him saying it in a child's voice? It kind of sounded like a child to me when I heard it. Also, The Protector of Fire's 'No, you fool!' is probably one of the best lines to come out of these episodes so far. It's almost as good as 'I didn't trip.' 1 Quote Everyone is one choice away from being the bad guy in another person's story. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Cup of Fail Posted March 6, 2015 Share Posted March 6, 2015 Well looks like I'm not the only one that heard Kopaka yelling 'WWHHEEEE!' Wow!

Dark_Stranger Posted March 6, 2015 Share Posted March 6, 2015 Funny how, as the story picks up and the animation improves, the voice acting just keeps getting worse. I showed this to my little siblings, and there were several points when the awful delivery made them all burst out laughing. What was once an acceptably cheesy element, or at worst a mild annoyance, has become a hugely aggravating flaw--and, quite frankly, a liability for the franchise. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kuurai Posted March 6, 2015 Share Posted March 6, 2015 I am finding that watching these webisodes without audio or subtitles first is very amusing 1 Quote "It's all a trick, you see.

Adventurer Posted March 7, 2015 Share Posted March 7, 2015 These things are kind of fun, but they're just too darn childish. Somewhat matches their market I guess - but I think moving up from that a bit would still appeal to their demographic as well as the older one. But I'm sure they'll adjust as needed.

Not a huge one, admittedly, but it's undeniably there, and it just keeps getting worse. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The animations themselves are really nice, they're just being dragged down by the voicework. If they had actual voice actors all that stuff, people could actually take them seriously and they would be 5x better than they are now.
