“The Oni Form comes from within! You must embrace all your emotions, your anger and frustration, and then release it!”

A Lesson in Anger is the twenty-first episode of the fifteenth season of Ninjago and the 201st episode overall.

Synopsis

Garmadon trains Lloyd to use Oni Form, but the Ninja resort to another strategy as the Crystal King's forces reach Ninjago.[1]

Extended: The Ninja retreat to the Samurai X Cave to strategize where Garmadon is teaching Lloyd to master his Oni Form. Lloyd struggles because he does not want to embrace his darker side. Master Wu believes there must be an equal and opposite Dragon Form and reaches out to Misako to research. Pixal upgrades the Ninja's vehciles after studying a sample of crystal, and they return to battle.[1]

LEGO's YouTube Channel: Seeing how effective Garmadon's new Oni Form is against the Crystal Warriors, Master Wu encourages Lloyd to learn how to harness that form from Garmadon. While Lloyd trains, Master Wu turns to Misako in hopes of finding a new Dragon Form!

Will Lloyd be able to unlearn Master Wu's teachings to attain the Oni Form? Can the Ninja find another way to stop the Crystal King?

Plot

In the rice fields, Cole attempts to defeat some Crystal Warriors, but is knocked back, disabling his vehicle before Jay arrives to extract him, only for the both of them to be saved by Nya aboard the Destiny's Bounty.

Regrouping at the Samurai X Cave, Wu explains the warriors are immune to any attack thrown at them, except Oni Form, which he learnt from Garmadon, who makes his presence known before Kai, Jay, Cole and Zane prepare to attack him, but were stood down by Wu, who wants Lloyd to achieve Oni Form himself. As Garmadon harshly teaches Lloyd, which miserably annoys them all, even expressing to channel rage through the face, and inadvertently says that everything has an opposite, giving Wu an idea about Dragon Form and, along with P.I.X.A.L., heads for Domu to see Misako.

Meanwhile, Gayle Gossip reports on the situation with Vinny Folson having caught the warriors infecting a man, turning him into a crystal zombie before they cross over to Mayor Trustable. The mayor discreetly asks Dwayne to get his car ready before discovering he is live, and attempts to calm the press down. While further back the New Ninja attempt to fight the Crystal Warriors, only to end up turning into zombies themselves. This panics the mayor, who immediately told everyone to run for their lives.

Back at the cave, Garmadon keeps chastising Lloyd for his failures and brags how the latter wants the Overlord and Harumi to win, infuriating Lloyd, who soon conjures Destruction before being warned by the others and immediately extinguished his hands, disappointing Garmadon. This ultimately leads to everyone arguing with Garmadon over his lessons and insulting Wu before they intend to go back out and take on the Crystal Warriors. P.I.X.A.L. then reveals she coated their vehicles with a coating that the temple will boost their power, instead of draining them. With everything in motion, they all take off with Garmadon muttering to Wu that they don't stand a chance.

Trivia

Continuity

  • Nya says "It's easier to just show you" to Cole, which is similar to what she said in "Darkness Within" to the ninja "It's easier if I just show you."
  • When Garmadon comes in the light in the Samurai X Cave, the ninja surprised to see him get in a fighting pose and warn Wu to get down. Garmadon expresses annoyance, saying "Really? This again?" referring to "The Green Ninja" where they did something similar.
    • Coincidentally, Zane is the one who warned Wu both times.
    • The scene is also similar to the ninja confronting Morro in "Day of the Departed," as both scenes involve Wu revealing a former villain to the ninja, to which they prepare to fight, only for Wu to calm them down by explaining that they are there to help.
  • The soundtrack "Training Course," which originally played in the first episode of the series, played when Lloyd was attempting to learn Oni Form.
  • This is the second instance where Lloyd refers to one of his parents (in this case, Garmadon) by name. Previously, Lloyd had referred to his mother, Misako, by her name in "On a Wish and a Prayer."
  • This is the first time Garmadon is referred to as "Master Garmadon" in the main series, following the change from Sensei to Master from "Day of the Departed" onwards. He was previously called that in Ninjago: Decoded (specifically "Legacy" and "Rise of Garmadon").
  • Garmadon mentions that he has been to the Realm of Madness, the Underworld, the Cursed Realm, and the Departed Realm.

Errors

Wu's beard error 2

Wu's beard cuts into his body

  • When Wu explains to the ninja that Lloyd is also part Oni, a piece of his beard cuts into his body.
  • When the New Ninja are crystalized, the Yellow and Fuchsia Ninja are in between the Teal Ninja when they both crystalize him. However, in the next scene afterwards, the Pink and Orange Ninja are next to the Teal Ninja, somehow switching positions with the Yellow and Fuchsia Ninja.
