	List of episodes

Secrets of the Forbidden Spinjitzu is the eleventh season 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 season aired from 22 June 2019 to 1 February 2020, following the tenth season titled March of the Oni. It is succeeded by the twelfth season titled Prime Empire.

The eleventh season marked a significant change in the format of the show. From the eleventh season onwards, the series was animated by WildBrain Studios in Canada and the "Masters of Spinjitzu" subtitle was dropped. The runtime for each episode also changed from 22 minutes to 11 minutes. The eleventh season also marked the use of new 2D anime-style segments that were included to add new creativity to the show.^[2]

Secrets of the Forbidden Spinjitzu is split into two parts titled The Fire Chapter and The Ice Chapter, with each chapter consisting of 15 episodes. Each half follows a separate plot, which combine to form an entire story arc. The Fire Chapter focuses on the threat of a new antagonist named Aspheera and her army of Pyro Vipers. The season introduces a new power called "Forbidden Spinjitzu" which is wielded by both Aspheera and the main ninja characters. Secrets of the Forbidden Spinjitzu also introduces the character Clutch Powers into the Ninjago universe, which was a pre-existing Lego character from the 2010 animated film Lego: The Adventures of Clutch Powers. The first half of the season ends in a cliffhanger, in which the character Zane is lost in another realm and the ninja characters decide to travel across the realms to find him. The Ice Chapter continues the storyline from the first half of the season. It introduces one of the 16 fictional realms in the Ninjago universe, the Never-Realm, and follows the storyline of the ninja and their search for Zane.^[3]

Production

Animation

From the eleventh season, the animation for the series was produced in Canada at WildBrain Studios, whereas it had previously been animated by Wil Film ApS in Denmark.^[41]^[42]

Secrets of the Forbidden Spinjitzu was the first season in the Ninjago series to mix animation styles between a 2D and 3D animation format. The season incorporates non-minifigure 2D animated anime-style segments in the show. These changes were announced at the 2019 San Diego Comic-Con by Jason Cosler and Robert May of The Lego Group. Executive Producer Tommy Andreasen confirmed the changes on Twitter, stating, "to clarify, the Ninjago series will still be 3d mini-fig based…but once in a while, if the story motivates it, we will be doing episodes in different styles. Ninjago is playground for creativity and fun."^[2]

Format

The eleventh season marked significant changes in the format of the show. The Masters of Spinjitzu subtitle was dropped, so that the series would be simply titled Ninjago. The new format also included a change in the long-standing episode runtime from 22 minutes to 11 minutes. The reduction to 11 minutes resulted in a brisker pace to the storyline. Bragi Schut continued as the writer for the series, having replaced the original writers Dan and Kevin Hageman in the tenth season.^[43] With the announcement of this change, The Lego Group stated, "The upcoming TV season will have 30 episodes of 11 minutes each, making it the ninjas' biggest adventure yet. The season picks up shortly after 'March of the Oni' and remains true to the story canon and the characters. This is not a reboot, nor a spin-off, but merely a brand-new adventure. A fresh beginning helps new viewers to watch and discover the magic of Ninjago without knowing much about the 100 episodes prior."^[44] The announcement further explained, "Whereas the first chapter was heavily tied to a 22 min serialized TV format, this next chapter will not be confined to a specific format. The 11 min episodes allow for new and creative possibilities for the storytelling. Also, with the growth of exciting story formats like comics, in-world books etc. that are extending the Ninjago universe, this new chapter will be more exploratory and creative."^[43] The change in the episode runtime was a particular cause of concern with fans of the show. Co-creator Tommy Andreasen explained that the 11 minute format, "was a way for the broadcasters to make it easier to programme". He also commented, "Once you're working with 11 minutes it's not just the same idea stretched over two 11s. Now it's a new idea in every episode, and it really makes you risky and fresh - and able to tell stories very efficiently...If there's something I would like Ninjago TV show to be, it's this creative playground, where you should never know exactly what you can expect".^[45]

Release

The first 60-second teaser trailer for the season was released on 26 May 2019 on the Lego YouTube channel.^[46] A trailer for The Ice Chapter was later released on 6 September 2019 on the Lego YouTube channel to promote the second half of the season.^[47] The season premiered on Cartoon Network on 22 June 2019 with the release of the first episode titled Wasted True Potential. The Fire Chapter episodes were released throughout June, July and August 2019 and ended on 10 August 2019 with the release of A Cold Goodbye. The Ice Chapter was released on 14 December 2019 with the release of the episode titled The Never-Realm. The Ice Chapter continued throughout December 2019 and January 2020 until the season finale titled Awakenings was released on 1 February of the same year.^[48]

Reception

Dan Bradley for TheHDRoom commented on the duality of the season, specifically in terms of the split structure that presents the Pyro Vipers (or fire serpents) and the Blizzard Samurai (or ice warriors) as the two groups of antagonists. This split theme of fire and ice was compared to Game of Thrones and A Song of Ice and Fire.^[61]

Accolades

In 2020, Secrets of the Forbidden Spinjitzu was nominated for two awards in the Animation Series category of the Leo Awards for Art Direction and Sound.^[62]
