List of episodes

The Island is a miniseries of the animated Ninjago television series (titled Ninjago: Masters of Spinjitzu before the eleventh season). The series was created by Michael Hegner and Tommy Andreasen.[1] The miniseries aired in March 2021, following the thirteenth season titled Master of the Mountain. It is succeeded by Seabound.[2] It consists of four episodes of 11 minutes each, similar to the pilot episodes.

The miniseries follows the storyline of the main ninja characters travelling to an island inhabited by an ancient tribe called the Keepers, who swore to protect an amulet linked to a sea-dwelling creature named Wojira.[3] When Wojira is seemingly awakened from her slumber, the ninja must uncover the truth if they hope to return home safely.[4] The miniseries introduces an artifact called the Storm Amulet, which would return as an important plot element in Seabound, along with Wojira. It also sees the return of Clutch Powers, a character introduced in the eleventh season of the television series. The name "Clutch Powers" is a tribute to the term the LEGO Group uses in quality control tests to describe characteristics of the ABS plastic: "clutch power" describes the force with which studs and anti-studs adhere.[5]
