Wu's Teas cover

Wu's Teas cover

  • The intro and outro uses "The Temporal Whip," which is used in the Season 7 intro.
  • A cover for "Wu's Teas" showed Wu at the Temple of Airjitzu and in a similar, slightly different animation style used in these videos. As there is no Wu video, the exact connection here is unknown.
    • There might be a planned episode for Wu at some point that got scrapped. But it's not clear.
  • The series is similar to the Villain Throwbacks in that they are six mini-movies each intending to brief the viewer on a specific character.
  • Jay had ordered food from Chen's Noodle House, as indicated by the delivery man having the same uniform as the Restaurant Owner and the box of food having Chen's symbol on it.
  • LEGO also released another series of "Meet the Ninja" videos around the same time as this series, which consists of music playing over footage from previous seasons rather than of new animated footage and voice-acting. These videos can be viewed here.
  • There was a Wu-Cru mission that centered around this series and tested the viewer's memory on details from the videos.[2]
  • This is the first notable Ninjago media to debut on the LEGO Life app, followed by the Season 13 blooper reel in 2020.
  • Though these videos are similar to the Villain Throwbacks, Wu-Cru, and Happy Birthday to You! videos in that the audience is directly addressed, the Meet the Ninja videos are framed through the ninja recording themselves, which means they could be speaking to an in-universe video platform.
  • These videos are non-canon, since the four ninja were shown wielding their Golden Weapons, which were fused into the Golden Armor at the time.
