P.I.X.A.L./History

P.I.X.A.L. was the latest in a line of android assistants to Cyrus Borg. Her fifteen predecessors had malfunctioned due to a faulty thermo-coil and a malfunctioning AIE-ES (artificial intelligence enhancer-emotion suppressor) chip. Cyrus managed to fix the thermo-coil with P.I.X.A.L., but the AIE-ES chip remained problematic.

The Surge

P.I.X.A.L.'s debut

When the ninja and their students arrived at Borg Tower for a tour of the facility, they were greeted by P.I.X.A.L., who was under the influence of the Overlord. She assured them that their crashed bus would be repaired before she introduced herself to Zane and asked him what his name stood for. Because she was under the influence of the Overlord, P.I.X.A.L. scanned Zane and found the Nindroid to be made of outdated parts. She was perplexed, however, that she could not locate Zane's power source. When he admitted he was unsure himself, she informed the ninja that Borg would like to see them in his office.

Hacked by the Digital Overlord

P.I.X.A.L. guided Master Wu, Nya, and their students on a tour through Borg Industries, stating the inventor's beliefs that technology was the key to making dreams come true. She showed them several of his latest inventions, including virtual reality gaming where the player was scanned into the game itself.

Using Zane's original model to create the Nindroids of the Digital Overlord's army

However while P.I.X.A.L. was showing off the factory line, the Digital Overlord took control of the system, including the android. She attacked the group with the rest of the machines, though they managed to escape due to the ninja arriving in a hover-copter.

As the sun rose over New Ninjago City the next morning, P.I.X.A.L. used her scans of Zane to create more upgraded Nindroids to serve the Overlord and began manufacturing them in the factory.

The Art of the Silent Fist

Advising the Digital Overlord

While the Nindroids searched for the ninja, P.I.X.A.L. used the technology in Borg Tower to extract the Golden Power Lloyd had used on a Security Mech in an attempt to create a body for the Overlord. Yet the transference required more power than they had, and the Overlord was forced back into his digital prison where he took control of the assimilated Cyrus Borg. He ordered P.I.X.A.L. to find the Golden Ninja, but she pointed out that the Techno Blades were a higher priority as they could erase him.

Explaining to the Ninja

Learning of Garmadon's monastery from Wu's memory, the Overlord ordered P.I.X.A.L. and a squad of Nindroids to retrieve the Techno Blades. Fortunately, her attempted theft was quickly spotted by Zane, who easily caught up to her. The android attempted to fight back, but the ninja of Ice quickly tied her up and brought her to the monastery. Zane hacked P.I.X.A.L. with his Techno Blade, freeing her from the Digital Overlord's control. She explained the importance of the Techno Blades to the other ninja before she realized the Nindroids were nearby. Though the ninja attempted to fight them, they were eventually forced to retreat.

Repairing Zane

On their way to the Storm Farms, P.I.X.A.L. repaired Zane, who had been damaged during the battle. It was during this that she noticed Zane's heart, a technology unfamiliar to her. She expressed her confusion as Zane was built out of spare parts, and attempts to examine it, but it hurts Zane. She apologizes stating that she was curious as to why he is so different. Zane replied that everyone is different, but P.I.X.A.L. dismisses it and leaves.

Powering down

When they arrive at the Power Station, P.I.X.A.L. decided to stay back as she was not designed for combat. However once the ninja were discovered by the Nindroids, she disregarded probability factors and hurried to the rescue, yet was quickly captured Cryptor. Zane arrived to help, but the White Ninja was easily defeated. The ninja disables the power soon after, and P.I.X.A.L. uses the last of her reserves telling Zane that they are compatible.

Blackout

Restored by Zane

P.I.X.A.L.'s body was taken to Ed & Edna's Scrap N Junk where Zane asked Nya to give her half of his power source. The transfer worked and the android was soon reactivated. She expressed confusion as to why Zane would do such a thing, Zane replied that the team needed her as she knew Borg's systems, but that she was also important to him. As the two robots held hands, Edna mentioned Jay and Nya's love, to which P.I.X.A.L. noted that the Blue Ninja was not Nya's perfect match compatibility partner, but it was instead Cole.

With Zane

Shortly thereafter, Techno Wu arrived and reactivate the Nindroids using Electro-Cobrai. Min-Droid used the junkyard's crane to lift the trailer home and swing it around. As the ninja prepared to use their Spinjitzu to escape, P.I.X.A.L. noted that her protective reflexes would suffice and she held onto Zane as the trailer fell. Unfortunately, with only half his heart, Zane was unable to perform Spinjitzu and the two robots fell.

They soon fell under attack by Cryptor, and P.I.X.A.L. was captured by Nindroids while the White ninja was lifted by the magnetic crane and dropped over a scrap shredder. At the last moment, P.I.X.A.L. broke free and saved her companion. Surprised at her actions, P.I.X.A.L. realized that Zane's heart had improved her fighting abilities. As the Nindroids surrounded them, the two locked arms, and now with shared reflexes, were able to create a Spinjitzu tornado together as one.

Discovering a clue

After fending off the Nindroids, they commandeered the crane and used it to captured their assimilated master. They rejoined the other ninja just as a mysterious stranger cut Wu loose and left in a Hover-copter. P.I.X.A.L. scanned the nearby area and discovered a white scale, which she began to analyze. She soon discovered it to be of Serpentine origins, and the ninja decided to go back to New Ninjago City to find answers.

The Curse of the Golden Master

Reunited with Borg

Upon returning to the city, P.I.X.A.L. was reunited with Cyrus Borg who was surprised to see her powered. The android explained Zane's sacrifice, to which the inventor thanked him. Yet as she began to descend into the sewers with the ninja to find the Serpentine, Borg instead asked her to return with him to Borg Tower to see what they would be able to do with her powerful heart. She reluctantly agreed and followed him to the tower.

Thinking about Zane

In Borg's office, they were able to power his systems using P.I.X.A.L.'s new heart and create an alert for nearby Nindroids. As Borg celebrated his victory, P.I.X.A.L. admitted that while Borg was her creator and she belonged to him, she felt a connection to Zane whenever she was around him—a connection of belonging. Borg assured her that she belonged to no one and if she wanted to be with Zane that was her choice. They were then interrupted by warnings of Nindroids mere feet away, which perplexed the inventor. P.I.X.A.L. quickly realized that the readings were coming from under the building, not in it.

Enter the Digiverse

Isolating the server

Borg soon realized that the power of P.I.X.A.L.'s new heart would enable him to send the ninja into the Digiverse and use the Techno Blades remotely. The android helped him set up the necessary devices while Borg explained to the ninja what he intended to do. However, they were interrupted by the Postman and other savages who believed Borg was keeping all the power to himself. They angrily charged at the computers and attacked them, but were soon halted as Golden Power began emanating everywhere. Borg urged P.I.X.A.L. to isolate their server to avoid detection, but she noted that Pythor and his forces had arrived.

Monitoring the ninja

Borg ordered the ninja to take their places and P.I.X.A.L. presented them with their Techno Blades and set up screens to monitor their vitals. As they entered the Digiverse, P.I.X.A.L. kept a close eye on them while Borg tried to mask their presence from the Overlord. Suddenly, his artificial limbs appeared and attacked the inventor. This distraction was long enough that by the time P.I.X.A.L. got to the computer to save the ninjas' lives, the Overlord had discovered the ninja.

Re-writing the code

Borg ordered P.I.X.A.L. to overwrite the existing code where the ninja had become entangled by the Overlord. She rescued them, allowing them to continue their mission. Nya left to deal with the incoming Nindroids, but Pythor and Techno Wu managed to make it to the office. Borg, who was being assimilated once again by his legs, ordered P.I.X.A.L. to defend the ninja moments before he was captured by a Nindroid hover-copter. Wu meanwhile located the termination switch, Pythor ordering him to destroy it, to P.I.X.A.L.'s horror. Yet before he could, Garmadon arrived and tossed his brother out the window, forcing Pythor to flee. He jumped out the window as well, leaving P.I.X.A.L. alone to tend to the ninja.

The ninja eventually completed the task, and P.I.X.A.L. pressed the termination button, sending them back safely. She rushed over and hugged Zane, then went to check the computers to find that the Overlord had been completely erased. Upon Garmadon's arrival, they turned their attention to the location of Lloyd and after several tense hours, they succeeded in locating the Green Ninja. As the others celebrated, P.I.X.A.L. stared at Borg's empty wheelchair and Zane assured her that it would be all over once they found him.

Codename: Arcturus

Piloting the X-1

P.I.X.A.L. and Zane began working on finding Borg, even managing to intercept a coded message with the name Project: Arcturus.

A few days later, their facial recognition software spotted Cryptor leading a convoy of trucks. Wu ordered them to contact the nearest ninja, but both Cole and Jay did not respond as they were on a date with Nya at the theater. P.I.X.A.L. noted that Kai was the nearest in proximity in regards to Cryptor and was currently in command of the Prototype X-1.

Trying to find Kai in the X-1

Unfortunately, P.I.X.A.L. unintentionally ruined Kai's chances with a girl at the gas station, and as he drove away, she brought him up to speed but ordered him not to engage. Kai quickly grew tried of P.I.X.A.L.'s warnings and cut her off but she retaliated by taking control of the vehicle. She drove it to the mountain pass where they were in sight of Cryptor's convoy and she returned control over to Kai who instantly inadvertently fired two missiles, alerting the Nindroids to his presence. Through a wild car chase, P.I.X.A.L. managed to get Kai aboard the convoy where he learned that they were carrying rocket fuel and that the Overlord was still alive. Kai was captured minutes later.

Trying to figure out Arcturus

Knowing that Project Arcturus would launch that night, Wu called an emergency meeting with the remaining ninja while P.I.X.A.L. continued to scan the database. When Zane realized that the Overlord was going after the Golden Weapons, the ninja raced to the Lost City of Ouroboros with P.I.X.A.L. driving Wu in Nya's car. They arrived just in time to watch it take off, but P.I.X.A.L. noted that she was reading four life forms aboard the ship in addition to Zane.

The Void

Aiding the Ninja

P.I.X.A.L. returned to Borg Tower with Wu, Garmadon, and Nya where she managed to find the blueprints for the Arcturus rocket. The others meanwhile were able to contact the ninja and provide help in their attempt to take over the comet-bound ship. However, their communications were discovered by Pythor who led a squad of Nindroids to attack Borg Industries.

As she was still connected to the system, P.I.X.A.L. was able to summon a Hover-Copter, and the four heroes were able to escape to Garmadon's monastery.

The Titanium Ninja

When the ninja returned from space, P.I.X.A.L. helped catch them after they used Elemental Shields to survive re-entry. After fighting their way to the Temple of Fortitude, Zane wanted to give her the Stone Warrior's armor, but she replied "No, this is your mission. Don't worry about me. I shall see y

Mourning Zane's "death"

ou, again." When Zane began sacrificing himself to freeze the Overlord and demolish him, P.I.X.A.L. could only watch in shock and grief. During Zane's memorial, she was leaning against a window atop Borg Tower, unable to attend due to her thoughts circling the Ice Ninja. Suddenly, she saw a video of her first meetings with him—including their special moment concerning their differences and compatibility, which she never shared with anyone. Realizing what it could mean, she ran to the factory line. To her pleased surprise, she saw Zane's face on a screen as he created a new body for himself, asking, "Are we compatible now?"

Prior to Tournament of Elements

Yet P.I.X.A.L.'s rejoicing was short-lived as Ronin soon captured her and the newly rebuilt Zane. They were sold to Master Chen, whose men dismantled P.I.X.A.L.'s body to extract information about the ninja from her, and her neural drive was connected to a computer located in a prison cell adjacent to Zane's.

Tournament of Elements

Versus

On Chen's computer

On the second day of the Tournament of Elements, P.I.X.A.L. woke Zane from a nightmare. The Titanium Ninja has lost his memory for only a few seconds as he tried to remember who he was. Zane made it through to the other prison where P.I.X.A.L. was, discovering that she has been scrapped, and her hard drive was on a simple computer. She said that her road is at the end and that she would always be part of him, giving Zane an idea as he took P.I.X.A.L.'s neural drive and put it in his head making her a part of his mind.

P.I.X.A.L.'s neural drive

However, Clouse sneaked up behind them, making it rather too late for her to warn Zane who is electrocuted, and brought back to his cell.

Ninja Roll

Restrained again, Zane spoke to P.I.X.A.L. about the new chains he was placed in being unbreakable. The Nindroids' predicament improved greatly when a recently eliminated Cole discovers them and promises to free them.

Spy for a Spy

Inside Zane's mind

Together, the two ninja navigate through the maze of tunnels beneath Chen's palace and Zane has P.I.X.A.L. help them escape Chen's pet Anacondrai, which was following them. While Cole is surprised that Zane has placed P.I.X.A.L. in his programming, the ninja elude the beast and hide from the guards. They quickly realize the other Elemental Masters share their situation in the factory as well. Recounting that ninja always stay together, they venture back to rescue the imprisoned Masters.

Spellbound

As the Elemental Masters were planning their breakout of the Noodle Factory, Zane requested P.I.X.A.L. to bring up the layout of the labyrinth, and then help Karlof in making a schematic for a Roto Jet.

Later when Ash created a distraction so they could secure parts for the Roto Jet, P.I.X.A.L. guided Zane through the smoke to the fan.

Upon needing more wires for the jet, P.I.X.A.L. displayed an image from the Nindroid's memory of the prison cells.

When Karlof became trapped by Clouse's serpent, P.I.X.A.L. scanned the snake's body and discovered an energy point under that snake's neck that, when pressed, would remain asleep.

The Day of the Dragon

Once they escaped and were reunited with the other ninja, Zane's nightmares about the Titanium Dragon became more frequent until he could "see" it while awake. Sensing his fright and anxiety, P.I.X.A.L. guided him into clearing his mind and helped him realize the source of his fear: his new identity. It was her guidance that enabled Zane to re-discover himself as the Titanium Ninja, and thus unlock his own Dragon Power, just like Lloyd.

The Greatest Fear of All

While the ninja are at Kryptarium Prison, P.I.X.A.L. alerts Zane that Chop'rai and Kapau'rai have been looking through the prison's database with an interest in Pythor.

Possession

P.I.X.A.L. in Zane's mind

Winds of Change

As the ninja were flying on their Elemental Dragons over the Endless Sea, they were attacked by a large fish. P.I.X.A.L. identified it as the Fangfish which had been terrorizing a coastal village.

Ghost Story

On Zane's request, P.I.X.A.L. released an upgraded Falcon to notify Misako of the ninja's location.

Stiix and Stones

In the city of Stiix

While the ninja were building a dock, Zane accidentally swallowed a fly, causing a misunderstanding that led Kai to bash him with a wooden pole. P.I.X.A.L. reported to Zane that his entire language database had been damaged and there was nothing she could do.

Peak-a-Boo

During the ninjas' trek toward the peaks of the Wailing Alps, P.I.X.A.L. identified some fresh tracks belonging to Nya's stolen Samurai Mech—piloted by Morro—and warned them to be careful.

Kingdom Come

As the ninja chase Morro down the Wailing Alps, P.I.X.A.L. informed the ninja they cannot avoid an upcoming obstacle.

The Crooked Path

When the ninja made their way into the Caves of Despair, P.I.X.A.L. told them about the skull symbol at the entrance. Later, she told them about a gap the cave-in caused so they can escape. When they started riding a minecart, P.I.X.A.L. told them about an obstacle ahead.

Inside Zane's mind in the Tomb of the First Spinjitzu Master

Grave Danger

P.I.X.A.L. helped the ninja find their way around the three tests, including telling Zane they're in a zoetrope and mentioning there is no pattern in the second test. Later, when trying to save Jay from Morro, P.I.X.A.L. tells Zane he and Kai are running in the wrong direction.

P.I.X.A.L. with the Preeminent

Curseworld, Part I

P.I.X.A.L. informed Zane that his particle shooter is disabled.

Curseworld, Part II

As the ninja battled The Preeminent, P.I.X.A.L. detected over five hundred ghosts surrounding the walking fortress.

Skybound

Infamous

When the ninja arrived in Stiix in search of Clouse, P.I.X.A.L. scanned the area but reported to Zane that she could detect no trace of him.

Public Enemy Number One

When Lloyd and Zane went to the library where Wu was last seen, Zane had P.I.X.A.L. disable the cameras so that their presence would not be discovered. Just as she was about to inform him that someone is about to hack into Zane, it was none other than Ronin himself.

Enkrypted

When Zane was captured by the Mechanic, who intended to take him apart for spare parts, P.I.X.A.L. diverted all power to the Nindroid's chest to zap him with an electric jolt that sent him flying.

On a Wish and a Prayer

When Zane is confronted by Nadakhan, P.I.X.A.L. warns Zane to not make any wishes, but he ignores her. Zane's second wish is that anything done to him is reflected on Nadakhan tenfold. An impressed Nadakhan grants the wish but replies that this doesn't apply to P.I.X.A.L., and removes her hard-drive before a distraught Zane "wishes it all to go away" and is trapped in the Djinn Blade.

Day of the Departed

Having been restored due to Jay's final wish, P.I.X.A.L. was present in Zane's mind when a group of Nindroids (revived by Master Yang's magic) attacked Zane on the Day of the Departed at his memorial to Dr. Julien. When Zane severed a tree limb beneath two of them, they produced jetpacks, which P.I.X.A.L. noted and feared that Zane had miscalculated. Zane assured her that he hadn't, and used his shurikens to take out the jetpacks, sending the Nindroids plummeting to the ground and their demise.

The Hands of Time

The Hands of Time

Focusing on Acronix

While cleaning up the museum, Zane asks P.I.X.A.L. to analyze a painting of Garmadon and Wu fighting. She does, and informs the ninja it dates back just after the Serpentine Wars.

Later, after time skipped a minute, P.I.X.A.L. told them the source is located at the monastery. There, they see someone, and P.I.X.A.L. scans him to find out he's Acronix.

The Hatching

Rolling the virtual die

When Zane rolls his virtual die to determine who will face the Vermillion Warrior, P.I.X.A.L. announces the results.

When trying to save Borg from being kidnapped, P.I.X.A.L. convinced Zane to get Borg out of Borg Store.

A Time of Traitors

When Nya, Jay, and, Cole left Zane, to tell Kai about Dr. Saunders, P.I.X.A.L. tried to get Zane to get up, when she was on the screen in the Samurai X Cave.

Scavengers

On the screen in the Samurai X Cave trying to awake Zane

When Nya was trying to awake Zane in the Samurai X Cave, she talked to herself and asked what was going on in there. P.I.X.A.L., who heard her question, answered her, trying to unscramble Zane's neural pathways. She also told Nya to realign Zane's neural inputs, although Nya couldn't hear her. P.I.X.A.L. tried to help her, hoping she wouldn't want to give Zane a new binary power core. Unfortunately, Nya got the idea. When she went to get a new core, P.I.X.A.L. shouted at her not to leave, but unsuccessfully because Nya hadn't heard her.

Later, when the Samurai X Cave was attacked by Vermillion, P.I.X.A.L. diverted energy to Zane's chest to stop them.

Between Scavengers and The Attack

Later, P.I.X.A.L. realized that she no longer wanted to be part of Zane's mind and that she wanted her own body. Knowing that Nya was no longer using her Samurai X suit or Samurai Mech, she decided to take on the identity of Samurai X. She left Zane's mind and built a new physical body in Borg Tower's factory, much better than the old one, this time with combat experience. She somehow transferred her own hard drive into it and then put on Nya's suit and became the new Samurai X.

Helping Lloyd using the Samurai Mech

The Attack

Lloyd was knocked off of concentration and lost control of his dragon because of the Vermillion eggs. Samurai X appeared in her samurai suit to save him. While aiding the ninja against the Time Twins and their Vermillion army, P.I.X.A.L. got shot down by the Vermillion, and then after the battle, mysteriously disappeared without a trace.

Secrets Discovered

Fighting Nya in the Samurai X Cave

When Nya came to the Samurai X Cave, she saw the new Samurai X in her old suit standing in the middle of the cave. Nya asked herself if the new Samurai X could not be one of the Vermillion warriors, after which masked P.I.X.A.L. replied using Ronin's voice that the Vermillion were not her friends. Nya wondered for a moment if Samurai X might be Ronin, but then she realized he had a broken leg. P.I.X.A.L. then told her using Dareth's voice to chill because she didn't want to fight her. Nya realized that Dareth would never say anything like that, so P.I.X.A.L. used Misako's voice to hide her identity. Nya shouted at her that she was a liar and that Misako was too honest to steal her suit. P.I.X.A.L. then changed her voice to Garmadon and pretended to be him. But Nya knew Garmadon was dead, so she lost her temper and shouted at her to reveal herself.

P.I.X.A.L.'s new body

The new Samurai X then told her using Kai's voice that she was not her enemy, but Nya said that she was her enemy and attacked her. During the fight, Nya praised her for clearly mastering several different fighting styles, which P.I.X.A.L. pleased and said using Wu's voice that it was an honor to hear it from the former Samurai X. Nya then used the Elemental Power of Water for another attack and asked her to reveal her identity. P.I.X.A.L. then replied using Nya's own voice that she hid her identity to protect the innocent and that her friends and allies would be at risk if her enemies knew who she really was. She than told her, that Nya was Samurai X once and that she knew this. Nya subsequently realized that P.I.X.A.L. was right and so she stopped fighting. She then reconciled with the new Samurai X and gave her the entire Samurai X Cave and the Samurai VXL. Then she told her to find a new color, as she used red. She also wrongly guessed that the new Samurai X is Skylor. P.I.X.A.L. took this opportunity to pretend it was true and when Nya raced to her brother at Chen's Noodle House, she started thinking about the new color.

P.I.X.A.L.'s new color scheme

Samurai X Rising

After the fight with Nya, P.I.X.A.L. upgraded the vehicle and armor by changing them from red to dark blue using the devices in the cave. She then boarded the Samurai VXL and left the caves.

Out of the Fire and Into the Boiling Sea

With Zane and Cyrus Borg trying to deactivate the Iron Doom

When the ninja's plan to rescue Borg failed, P.I.X.A.L. appeared out of nowhere on the vehicle that Nya gave and saved them. As P.I.X.A.L. was about to take Borg and the ninja away from the Vermillion Swamps, she accepted a challenge from Zane to deactivate the Iron Doom and took Borg with him to activate the self-destruct code in the apparatus. When she arrived, Zane helped Borg deactivate the Time Apparatus as the Hands of Time and Supreme Commander Machia arrived at the swamp. However, they failed to deactivate the Iron Doom because Krux used the Pause Time Blade to pause Time on Zane, Borg, and P.I.X.A.L. Following that, Acronix and Krux plugged the Blades in the Time Apparatus of the Iron Doom traveled back in Time to exact their revenge.

Lost in Time

Jay hugging the new Samurai X

After the Hands of Time left along with Kai, Nya, and Wu they hoped that they will stop the Time Twins. Eventually, the Time Twins won for a while leaving Samurai X nowhere to be seen, due to being made from technology. This lasted until Kai and Nya used the Past Reversal Time Blade to correct the timeline of Ninjago, allowing Samurai X to return.

After realizing his friends won, a happy Jay hugged the vigilante and asked if they would share their identity since they won but the latter refused.

When Wu used the Reversal Time Blade to sabotage the Doom he tossed the Kai and Nya along with the Reversal Blade into the present Time, Kai healed his father. After that, the Samurai witnessed Lloyd's speech to dispose of the Blade and find Wu.

Prior to Sons of Garmadon

During the year after Wu got lost time, P.I.X.A.L. returned to the computer as the ninja's ally. She also slightly modified her Samurai X suit and improved her the Samurai Mech.

Sons of Garmadon

The Mask of Deception

After the Sons of Garmadon stole the Oni Mask of Deception from Borg Tower, Lloyd's fight on the rooftop took him back down to the streets of the city, where P.I.X.A.L. aided him by sending him his car and aiding in his chase after Mr. E. Later P.I.X.A.L. contacted the other members of the team and told them to return back to the city to help Lloyd.

Saving the children from the Sons of Garmadon

The Jade Princess

Samurai X, now donning a new color scheme on her armor, manages to scare off some Sons of Garmadon members harassing some kids. Harumi and Lloyd watched it. Lloyd the told the princess he wishes he knew who the vigilante is behind the mask.

The Oni and the Dragon

Zane informed the ninja that P.I.X.A.L. tried to find the location of the Oni Mask of Hatred, but to no avail. She later told them Luke Cunningham refused to answer the police and is set for release.

When Lloyd and Jay came back from Mystake's shop, P.I.X.A.L. told the ninja Zane had a plan to gain the Sons of Garmadon's trust. The ninja went out to fight them and Lloyd told P.I.X.A.L. to look out for Harumi.

Revealing the identity of Samurai X to the ninja

Dead Man's Squall

When the Destiny's Bounty was hacked by the Quiet One, P.I.X.A.L. reported to the ninja that Samurai X was coming before revealing it was her body and she is the vigilante, to their shock. Since her body was taken over, she was forced to fight the ninja with her Samurai X Mech.

Hacked by the Quiet One

After being freed from the Quiet One's control and removing her helmet, she hugged Zane, as well as admitting that she did not enjoy being stuck inside his head and wanted to return to help him and his friends.

The Quiet One

P.I.X.A.L.'s new body

While repairing the Bounty, P.I.X.A.L. explains to Zane how she became Samurai X and expressed that she hated being inside Zane's head. She explained that she wanted to be more useful to the team before she asked him if he was upset by her not telling him, though he tells her he was happy to see her with a body again and supported her heroic actions. She was surprised but delighted to hear this and they promised not to hold any secrets.

Nya soon showed up with her Samurai Mech with a message from Lloyd and Harumi, written on a leaf.

Inside the Samurai X Mech

P.I.X.A.L. was present when the ninja inform Nya of the baby being Wu, she watched as the baby talked and showed similar mannerism to the Master. She agreed with Zane's words about Nya's possible deduction on the ninjas' now de-aged master, she commented time will tell after Jay wondered how long until Wu will change back.

As soon as repairs were completed, the Sons of Garmadon showed up and P.I.X.A.L. mounted her mech to fight but was knocked back.

Dread on Arrival

With the ninja in the Ninjago City Police Station

While the ninja rode the Sea Creature back to Ninjago, P.I.X.A.L. had her mech as they came up to the police station. Leaving the creature in an officer's care, they went to the Police Commissioner for assistance. She later had to babysit Toddler Wu while the ninja infiltrate the Temple of Resurrection and helped navigate Kai while he drove his Katana V11.

True Potential

Watching the ninja in Laughy's with Misako

The ninja, Wu, Misako, and P.I.X.A.L. decide to celebrate the arrest of Sons of Garmadon at Laughy's. As she and Misako watch Wu dance as Kai, Jay, Nya, Cole, and Zane sang, P.I.X.A.L. notices Lloyd wasn't celebrating, due to having his heartbroken. The Celebration was cut short when news of Harumi escaping was shown on TV as well as the shocking discovery: Garmadon was resurrected. As the ninja listen to the Commissioner, P.I.X.A.L. was nearby, helping the officers clean up the mess Garmadon made. Later, on the Bounty, after voting against Lloyd's plan to go to Kryptarium Prison alone, he locks them all in one room before heading off. They got out and as soon as Zane fixed the navigation, they were forced to watch Lloyd being beaten by his father.

Big Trouble, Little Ninjago

With the ninja trying to stop the Colossus

Upon finding the unconscious ninja master, they took Lloyd to Mystake's Tea Shop, where Mystake would heal him with tea. After Lloyd drinks it, Kai, Zane, Jay, Cole, and P.I.X.A.L. hear a noise and head outside, only to see the Colossus, a being created by Garmadon. P.I.X.A.L. stayed behind to distract the rock monster while the four ninja get to the Bounty. She was later on the boat with Misako and Nya as they picked up Lloyd, who is stricken with grief, following the supposed death of their friends.

Prior to Hunted

Over the following week, P.I.X.A.L., Nya, Lloyd, Misako, and Dareth managed to resist Emperor Garmadon's oppressive hold on Ninjago City. P.I.X.A.L. mourned over the "deaths" of her friends and love, not knowing they were marooned in the Realm of Oni and Dragons.

The group investigate the ship more closely and see only half of it has disappeared, realizing that their friends were not killed but instead teleported elsewhere. This gives them hope before their enemies show up and prepare to attack but Karlof punches Mr. E away as Griffin Turner and Shade appear.

She was among the members of the Resistance and the citizens to chain the Colossus down, using her mech suit to help hold the chains until Garmadon lost his power and the behemoth was destroyed.

After Garmadon's defeat, P.I.X.A.L. made it to the entrance of Borg's Tower where she reunited with and embraced Zane, happy to be with him again.

Several days later, as the ninja were celebrated as heroes, Nya spotted P.I.X.A.L. with Skylor and Dareth in the crowd before inviting them up to be honored for their role in saving the city. During this time, Zane wrapped his arms around her, as she smiled at him. They were later holding hands, as they celebrate their victory.

Into the Breach

With the ninja and Garmadon on the Destiny's Bounty

Once the ninja are airborne again, the ninja discussed if they could trust Garmadon. Meanwhile, he turned the engines off, and the Bounty starts plummeting toward the ground. The ninja hanged on until Zane got to the emission switch-on time.

Later, Zane then asked that everyone meet up at the bridge, where Garmadon proceeds to tell the ninja about how the Oni were able to enter Ninjago. They used the Realm Crystal and he would be able to go inside the dark cloud to destroy it due to being an Oni, but he would need a weapon. Lloyd then argues that they can't just let him have a weapon then let him walk away unsupervised. Since Lloyd is part Oni, he claimed he would also survive the darkness and decided to go with him.

With Cole and Nya

When they arrived at Borg Tower, the ninja handed Garmadon a sword, but he started attacking them to activate his powers. He jumped off, and Lloyd followed. After watching Lloyd on his headcam, they heard signals coming from NGTV and decided to help the people trapped there. They flew off, while P.I.X.A.L. decided to stay behind in case the two needed assistance.

The Fall

Trying to save Lloyd and Garmadon

When Lloyd tried to contact the Bounty, P.I.X.A.L. told them the ninja were occupied and that she stayed behind. She entered the dark clouds and being a Nindroid, was able to save them but was running out of fuel. The ninja caught up to them in time and told them Cole fell off the Bounty. After Garmadon told them they are wasting time mourning, he showed them the Golden Master's armor. However, everyone was upset at him and started leaving.

With the Scroll of Forbidden Spinjitzu

Despite this, Lloyd steals the Traveler's Tea, and the ninja head to the hangar bay where they spot Wu holding the Scroll of Forbidden Spinjitzu. A lengthy battle occurs as both sides were fighting for the Traveler's Tea. This gave the ninja no choice, but to tie Wu up and place a mouthpiece over him.

Zane, in his real voice, explains that he has downloaded thousands of detective books and movies to prepare. P.I.X.A.L. then asks about his hat, and Zane explains that all successful detectives wear hats.

Stating "Videogame City" when referring to Buddy's Pizza, an Arcade Cabinet suddenly opens after accepting the password, revealing stairs. She heads upstairs and finds Milton Dyer feeding pigeons. She calls him Unagami, but Milton Dyer reveals that he is not Unagami and that name was given when they were creating the game. He tells P.I.X.A.L. that the A.I. was so dangerous, they never completed the game.

With Milton Dyer watching the henchmen in The Mechanic's warehouse

P.I.X.A.L. continues to offer suggestions on shutting down the game, but Dyer tells P.I.X.A.L. that the game was shut down differently. P.I.X.A.L. then queries Dyer about Prime Empire, so he explains. Dyer tells P.I.X.A.L. the game was shut down due to being too dangerous. At first, he blamed Vast Industries but realizes it was his fault for creating the game in the first place. He ceased all operations because he thought it was a machine with no feelings, but it turned out to not be the case.

On the Destiny's Bounty

At Lloyd's command, P.I.X.A.L. prepared the Destiny's Bounty and they flew into the storm belt.

When Maya thought they could use the energy source they were searching to recharge, P.I.X.A.L. agreed and decided to use the APS suits she had previously built. She showed them to the ninja and told them she wanted to build one for each, but she didn't make it.

P.I.X.A.L. increases the power of the cooling units when Skylor’s power starts to fade, but this overloads them and they shut down.

When Zane returns and refreezes Nya, P.I.X.A.L. asks him about the location of the other Ninja. Zane tells her and Skylor that “...they are showing Aspheera around the Monastery,”.

Later, P.I.X.A.L. listens to the Ninja strategize from her position at the Monastery’s computer. Meanwhile, Kai sarcastically simulates a phone call with Cyrus Borg in which he asks for the location of Aspheera’s staff so he can steal it. Immediately after, P.I.X.A.L. calls Dr. Borg and nearly copies Kai’s mock conversation word-for-word, shocking him.

Informing the Ninja about the guarded convoy

After receiving information about the guarded convoy transporting Aspheera's staff from her creator, P.I.X.A.L. informs the Ninja. Zane tells them that their current vehicles wouldn’t be able to compete with the convoy and estimates that the necessary upgrades would require 600 hours of work. P.I.X.A.L. corrects Zane in his estimation, stating that the modifications require 653 hours of work. She then declares that she can finish the vehicles in time for the heist, which baffles Zane and prompts Cole to remark how mathematically impossible that seems.

Eight hours later, Lloyd thanks P.I.X.A.L. for their new vehicles while approaching the guarded convoy. When Zane questions the paradoxical speed at which P.I.X.A.L. upgraded the vehicles, she replies that “A nindroid needs her secrets,”.

Warning Wu to stall Aspheera

A Painful Promise

P.I.X.A.L. warns Master Wu to stall Aspheera so the sorceress doesn’t leave before the Ninja arrive with her staff.

When Aspheera regains her staff and attacks the Ninja, P.I.X.A.L. and Skylor take cover behind a chair.

She is present when Aspheera drains Nya’s powers and the New Ninja arrest her friends (the “Old”/"New New" Ninja).

Strategizing with Nya

Kryptarium Prison Blues

Nya asks P.I.X.A.L. for help in building a new Samurai X MECH she redesigned from her old blueprints. P.I.X.A.L. agrees and declares that she will have it ready in the morning despite the fact that the construction will require 1,276 hours to complete which visibly confuses Nya.

The Spider's Design

Tracking the Ninja's journey with Wu and Skylor

P.I.X.A.L. tracks the Ninja’s movements along the abandoned N-line and informs Master Wu and Skylor of them. Later, she tells them (along with Nya who just arrived) that sensors suggest that an explosion of some kind occurred in the tunnel and further details regarding the incident are unknown.

The Fall of the Monastery

P.I.X.A.L. fights alongside Master Wu, Nya, and Skylor to defend the Monastery against several Crystal Council members (Aspheera, Pythor, Vangelis, and the Mechanic) who came for the Golden Weapons of Spinjitzu. She counters and dodges the Mechanic’s attacks by herself until he propels her against the stairs and injures her, to Master Wu’s concern. P.I.X.A.L. then warns Nya seconds before an invisible Pythor captures her.

P.I.X.A.L. rushes to Master Wu’s side when he collapses from the Council’s attacks. Sensing the unfairness of the fight, P.I.X.A.L. summons the MiniPix (revealing their existence to the others) and orders them to attack the present Council members. The MiniPix fare well against the villains until an army of Crystal Spiders arrive from the main elevator and nearly destroy the MiniPix.

P.I.X.A.L. and the others soon collapse from their injuries and exhaustion while the Council Members steal the Golden Weapons, activate the Crystal Spiders' self-destruction sequences, and exit through the escape elevator.

After the last functioning MiniPix saves P.I.X.A.L., Master Wu, and Skylor, they notice Nya’s absence. P.I.X.A.L. and Skylor prevent Master Wu from charging into the Monastery and tell him that he cannot help Nya. She and Skylor comfort him as they believe Nya perished in the explosion. However, Nya soon bursts out of the broken Monastery in her Samurai X mech, and the team expresses their joy at her survival.

Moments later, Zane contacts P.I.X.A.L. from the abandoned N-line and asks for assistance. P.I.X.A.L. expresses her relief at his and the Ninja’s survival before Nya departs to help them. P.I.X.A.L. remains behind at the burning Monastery with Skylor and Master Wu.

Darkness Within

At some point, P.I.X.A.L., Master Wu, and Skylor travel to Nya's old Samurai X Cave. P.I.X.A.L. also names the remaining MiniPix, calling them MiniPix Seven in honor of their effort in saving her, Master Wu, and Skylor from the Monastery. They then work with Master Wu to restart the old Samurai X Cave's computers.

She embraces Zane upon his arrival and introduces the Ninja to MiniPix Seven.

Crystastrophe

P.I.X.A.L. and Skylor remain in the Samurai X Cave and monitor the Ninja’s progress against the Crystal Army. Seeing the Ninja struggling to defeat their opponents, P.I.X.A.L. asks them to gather a sample of the crystals from the Vengestone Warriors so she can devise a means of shielding and defensive capabilities.

A Lesson in Anger

After watching Garmadon train Lloyd for some time, Master Wu asks P.I.X.A.L. for assistance in reaching Misako at the Library of Domu. She agrees and they leave, prompting an angry Garmadon to call them "backseat drivers".

At some point during Lloyd’s training, P.I.X.A.L. upgrades the Ninja’s vehicles, “coating them in a nano-tech-polymer” which allows them to draw power from Crystal Temple (instead of being weakened by it) and activate a special power boost. She warns them not to use the power boost too often or else it may damage their vehicles. She then presents them to the Ninja to their delight and Garmadon’s disgust.

Brave But Foolish

Sometime after upgrading the Ninja’s vehicles, P.I.X.A.L. modifies Wu’s Dragon Armor, inserting makeshift wings inside so Wu can utilize the armor to fly.

Return of the Ice Emperor

P.I.X.A.L. defeats two Crystal Warriors before finding Zane’s broken jet. At first, she is confused when she spots Clutch Powers in the cockpit, but realizes that the crash must have damaged Zane’s cloaking technology when Clutch transforms into Akita, Racer Seven, and Benthomar.

P.I.X.A.L. opens the cockpit and multiple parts of Zane’s body fall out. Zane’s head then morphs to the Ice Emperor’s and declares that “There is no Zane,”.

P.I.X.A.L. then gathers Zane’s dismantled body and carries him on her back, deciding to take Zane to Borg Tower to repair him there. She hides behind a broken vehicle when she spots a gathering of Crystal Warriors and asks Zane to be quiet. In response, the damaged Zane orders P.I.X.A.L. not to “tell (him) what to do” and calls her a “non-frozen fool”. Due to Zane’s noisy outburst, the pair becomes surrounded by Crystal Warriors. P.I.X.A.L. then tells Zane that she loves him and for a brief moment, Zane’s cloaking technology glitches and reveals Zane’s real face, indicating that a part of him received her message. However, Zane (as the Ice Emperor) dismisses her comment, scoffing that “Love is for the weak,”. P.I.X.A.L. rolls her eyes in annoyance.

Suddenly, a Kryptarium Prison bus rams into the Crystal Warriors. P.I.X.A.L. and Zane board the bus and she expresses her surprise when she spots Ronin, Killow, and Ultra Violet there. P.I.X.A.L. tells Ronin to drive to Borg Tower and asks why the criminals helped her and Zane. Fugi-Dove and Ultra Violet recount how the criminals were released from prison and became inspired to fight the Crystal Army. P.I.X.A.L. then thanks Ronin and advises him to ignore Zane when he expresses gratitude through his Ice Emperor persona and “plays footsie” with Ronin’s hair. In response, Zane orders a non-existent Vex to “…cast (P.I.X.A.L. and Ronin) in the dungeon”. P.I.X.A.L. scowls at him while Ronin shakes his head.

At Borg Tower, P.I.X.A.L. informs her distracted creator of the Crystal King's invasion, asks him to repair Zane, and comments on how little time they have.

Compatible

When Master Wu contacts the Ninja using the Paperkids' radio, P.I.X.A.L. informs him that she is with Zane. She also mentions that she can provide the team with some assistance (i.e. Ronin and his gang in their new mechs provided by Cyrus Borg). However, when Fugi-Dove plays with his mech and hits Killow and Ronin, P.I.X.A.L. remarks that she “do(es) not know how reliable they will be,”.

Later, P.I.X.A.L. aids Ultra Violet with her mech. When Ultra Violet declares that she could “take down those stupid ninja” with it, P.I.X.A.L. frowns at her. Seeing P.I.X.A.L.’s expression, Ultra Violet hastily backtracks, assuring her that she will “only save lives and be good.” Then, Fugi-Dove asks P.I.X.A.L. if his new name (Mecha-Dove), catchphrase (“My whirring servos fill the night!”) , and "new moves" are awesome after nearly crushing P.I.X.A.L. and crashing his mech into one of Dr. Borg’s computer screens. She hesitates before nodding. P.I.X.A.L. also attempts to help Killow control his mech before Cyrus Borg asks for her.

P.I.X.A.L. inquires about Zane’s condition and Cyrus Borg compares it to a coma. When P.I.X.A.L. remarks how some “...coma patients are known to recover,”, Dr. Borg tells her that since Zane is a nindroid, that may not be the case. P.I.X.A.L. informs him that she understands and asks him to try the best he can to bring Zane online.

Before departing with the others to fight the Crystal Army, P.I.X.A.L. checks once more to see if Zane regained consciousness. After no response, she tells the team that she will say her goodbyes to Zane before leaving Borg Tower with them.

P.I.X.A.L. holds Zane’s hand and voices a heartfelt farewell to him regarding how much he has done for her and means to her. She recalls how Zane gave her half of his heart during the Overlord’s previous invasion and taught her to feel human emotions, including love. She promises to return to him after the battle if she survives. If not, she tells him she will meet him in the afterlife, if such a place exists for nindroids. P.I.X.A.L. gives him a final hug and kiss before turning to leave with the others.

Before P.I.X.A.L. and Ronin’s gang depart, Zane’s eyes glow, signifying his emergence from the coma, and he asks for P.I.X.A.L. She turns in shock and leaps into his arms, exclaiming her joy at his awakening. When Dr. Borg asks Zane how he arose from his coma, Zane replies that P.I.X.A.L.’s voice helped him remember and tells her that she “...brought him back,”.

Their reunion brings a smile to Dr. Borg's and Ronin’s faces and moves Killow and Fugi/Mecha-Dove to tears.

Annoyed by the length of this interaction and Fugi/Mecha-Dove’s sobbing, Ultra Violet groans and asks P.I.X.A.L. if she’s ready to leave.

P.I.X.A.L. then contacts Minipix Seven, asking them to bring the Ninja Ultra Combo Mech to the battlefield. Afterwards, she declares that she is ready to fight.

An Issue of Trust

Outside the Paperkids’ Warehouse, P.I.X.A.L. and Zane greet Garmadon and the other Ninja who had just returned from their respective missions. Inside, the samurai watches the Ninja attempt and fail to achieve their Dragon Forms alongside Wu, Garmadon, and the Paperkids.

Cyrus Borg calls the Ninja over the Paperkids’ radio and P.I.X.A.L. answers. Dr. Borg tells her and the Ninja that the Overlord knows their location and sent his army to confront them.

Later, P.I.X.A.L. moves Killow’s mech with a remote control and gives it to Lloyd to fight the Crystal King with Garmadon. She then hugs Lloyd after he thanks her, wishes him luck, and departs to help the others defend the Paperkids’ Warehouse from the Crystal Army.

Dragon Form

MiniPix Seven delivers the Ninja Ultra Combo Mech and P.I.X.A.L. uses it against the Crystal Army.

When Mister F chases P.I.X.A.L. on his dragonide, Zane intervenes and battles him, resulting in Mister F’s demise.

Later, P.I.X.A.L. shatters dozens of Crystal Warriors and a dragonide with the drill mounted on her mech, prompting cheers from Sally and her parents.

When the Ninja defeat their respective antagonists, P.I.X.A.L. and Zane embrace.

Roots

P.I.X.A.L. joins the team on a rooftop where they meet Lloyd, Garmadon, and Harumi on the Golden Ultra Dragon. P.I.X.A.L. rebuilds the Monastery with the others and is last shown carrying a bathtub with Zane.

After Crystalized

Quest for the Lost Powers

Following the defeat of the Crystal King, P.I.X.A.L. travels with Zane to the Samurai X Cave in the Sea of Sand (as the one in the Monastery was destroyed) to devise a way to return Zane’s powers to him. Over the course of a few weeks, P.I.X.A.L. creates a machine that allows Zane to travel inside his memories and relive them as an outside observer. P.I.X.A.L. helps Zane activate and use the machine. She monitors and communicates with him while he travels inside his memories.

Later, when Zane encounters a memory of himself as the Ice Emperor, she removes him from the memory at his request and encourages him, giving him the confidence to return to his memories and face his fear. After Zane fights his internal demons, forgives himself, and regains his powers, P.I.X.A.L. celebrates with him.

Prior to Dragons Rising

During the beginning of the Merge, P.I.X.A.L. piloted the Bounty by remote, helping the Ninja protect the citizens of Ninjago in the chaos.
