Then, in the second pilot ep, Lloyd is by Kai's side (I like how he outlived the other ninja) as he dies. Then, at his funeral, Lloyd realises he is the last elemental master. In the third and final pilot ep, Lloyd opens his academy, and Jiya (Nya and Jay's daughter)could help run it. Meanwhile, at the time, the existance of the Ninja's could be told, like the story of the first spinjitsu master. However, everyone is interested in tech and gadgets, and nobody wants to learn spinjitsu. Glad you agree with those previous concepts. I'm curious as to how you would be planning on delivering the episodes though. You mention that Sensei Wu dying would be in the first episode, but so would his funeral. Then you have him still dying in the second episode, followed by his funeral again... Just curious as to how you were thinking of filling that unused time in each of the episodes. Though, this is why I advise everyone to stay away from getting into the specifics of timing as well (like mentioning episodes and such), since we aren't actually making this show, just talking about cocepts.

Also, once again, please refrain from giving concept characters names, unless you find that they are necessary for clarification.

I don't know what you mean by "meanwhile" since the story of the Ninja doesn't take more than 10 minutes, but I do like that idea, and feel that it would be necessary for this "spin-off" show (I like that joke too much, sorry). I do find that factor of Ninjago society not caring about Spinjitzu or their past anymore very interesting, and is probably one of my favorite general bases.
