So before we get to the review today, I have a little announcement. (This isn't related to the episode or even Ninjago in any way, but I just wanted to share this with you guys...)

I'm engaged! My boyfriend of 8 years has finally popped the question! (In case anyone is wondering, I'm 24 and he just turned 25 earlier this month.)

Ok that's all I wanted to say. Now onto the actual review.

Plot: Kai shows Wyldfyre how to care for Heatwave's burns by finding geodes with cooling crystals inside and melting them. Nya and Sora meet Cole in his new rock golem power. He explains how he ended up in the land of lost things and meets Cole's new gang of lost people while running away from a giant trash monster named the hoarder that reforms every time they defeat it. Using Geo's elemental power of fusion, they escape back to their hideout called the rookery which is protected by a field of energy powered by the dragon core. Sora tries to find another way to power the core using Geo and his elemental power. While looking for parts, Imperiam drones attack Giro which attracts the attention of the hoarder. During the battle, Cole tells Nya he can only use the new form if Geo gives him a power boost. Dr Larow makes her way to the rookery and battles Sora to get the dragon core. Sora uses her power to defeat the hoarder and finds out it's really just an Imperiam cleaning invention. Geo reveals that he has no effect on Cole's powers. Dr Larow gets away with the dragon core.

Things I enjoyed:

- I love the hugs that Cole and Nya share!

- I love how Cole was so sad about Jay and how Riyu cheered him up.

- The hoarder was a cool robot.

- The fight scenes with the robot kept me on the edge of my seat! I loved every second of it!

- I love how Nya keeps encouraging Sora.

- I like Fritz and Skitz. They are quite adorable.

- The lighting and backgrounds were great, especially in the land of lost things.

- Kai teaching Wyldfyre is so wholesome and I love it!

- The way Nya was bragging about Sora to Cole! So cute!

- Cole has learned some awesome new moves!

- The bone girl character is comic relief done right!

- I really like the relationship between Cole and Geo. I'm not saying that I ship it... but it's pretty hard not to.

Things I didn't like:

- Why did I just now realize the other dragon's name was Giro?

- Nya: "I've never heard of anyone sharing elemental powers like that."
And those two times you made a fusion dragon with both Jay and Kai don't count? 🤨

- What happened with the hoarder was a bit anticlimactic, but I'm glad they worked everything out in the end.

Favorite line:

"But I do need you. If my new form has been part of my elemental powers all along, I clearly needed you to help me realize my true potential." -Cole

Overall score: 9/10

This is honestly my favorite episode in part 2! Join me tomorrow for the next one! Stay Awesome!
