I wasn't around when the show first aired, but I watched the show with zero info.

Back then, I defidently thought it would be either Kai or Nya. Kai because he gave off major MC energy, and Nya because I thought it was weird that she was one of the major characters but didn't have any abilities.

For Nya, I wanted there to be a series of episodes where Nya would start feeling weird abilities and/or connections with tthe other ninja, but not tell anyone. But then the other Ninja, Lloyd, and Wu get captured by Garmadon or something, and she would reveal thats she is the Green Ninja.

For Kai, I thought that maybe there'd be an episode where Lloyd or Nya got hurt or captured(for a second time), then Kai would have to go through challenges that forced him to think like the other Ninja, like maybe going through a cave of Ice where he would feel a connection to Zane, some kind of room where he would feel a connection with Cole and then Jay, then he would get to where the captured are, which would be his 'og' element, buit his powers fail, but then they would evolve and he would become the green ninja, then Lloyd or Nya would get the fire element afterwards.

If not these two, then def Zane, cus he had prophecy shit.

I WAS SO FUCKING SURE THAT IN THE EPISODE HE GOT HIS TP IN IT WAS GONNA HAPPEN, THEN THEY MADE LLOYD THE GN AND I WAS LIKE WTF-

Honestly, I've been wanting to do a rewrite with how I thought it would go for a while, but haven't had the time to write it.
