Omi would have been a poor leader.
>>
>>81424866

Raimundo a traitor. Didn't deserve to be leader
>>
>>81424365
Did they ever explain why he looks like Omi?
>>
>>81426674
He just does, and no one finds it the least bit strange or noteworthy, like the fact he can use all the other character's powers.

I was expecting there'd be some kind of subversion, like Ping Pong found some kind of wish-granting/reality warping Shen Gong Wu that retconned the universe into having him be a monk.

This would also explain random inconsistencies and why the Shen Gong Wu have different names: the new reality was based on Ping Pong's half-knowledge of the monks and related stuff, so of course things wouldn't 100% line up with the old.

But no, you're just not supposed to notice the inconsistencies and Ping Pong is played straight.

Somebody tell there a episode whre Chase Young literally lays a egg is this truth and something about being related to Omi?
>>
>>81427199
He lays an egg and has a daughter, then starts dating her.

Not even joking.
>>
Why were they able to make a show with a character who looked like the most stereotypical Asian chin-chong Chinaman in the world?

I mean they even fucking added a character who looks just like him, but with glasses. "We arr rook same.

I'm not offended, I'm just curious how that got past focus groups.
>>
>>81427271
What a human come from the egg and then he's dating her, so Chase just fuck himself?
about the thing of being related to Omi is this true, they try to make some class of plot twist?
>>
>>81427516
>related to Omi

His daughter? Not that Im aware of. He just up and lays an egg one day and has a daughter/girlfriend.
>>
>>81427562
Did the original creators and writers didn't come back for the new show or they simply fuck everything because they were rushed because that shity plot dosen't have an excuse for me
>>
>>81427683
AFAIK, one writer did, and she basically turned Chronicles into her fanfiction.

Hui was the creative force, but didn't retain the rights. That's why old Wu got new names.
As far as Ping Pong, that's anybody's guess. Executive meddling? Toy peddling? Creative bankruptcy?

Goddamn this show was a disaster.

Not that the original was anything special either (aside from Jack Spicer and Wuya) but man this was a train wreck.
>>
Why didn't they just make Jack a member of the team like they originally intended?

They probably thought fans would be mad about a blatant retcon. /co/ is in the minority in hearing about the original show intentions.
>>
I know almost nothing about Chronicles except OC Ping Pong Donut Steel and the crappy CG showdowns. What else made it shit?
>>
>>81430979
And they didn't think fans would be mad about how much of a lazy piece of shit Ping Pong was?
There was that black kid from the original show they could've used too.
>>
>>81430924
Because Jack turned out to be a better character than literally 90% of the cast. Seriously, it's like the writers landed on a combo of voice, design, and animation the ended up more consistently interesting than all the other monks at their best, except maaaybe Raimundo. They didn't know ho to handle this so he floundered around a bunch and eventually they just gave up.

And in the new show they couldn't get the old VA so he may as well try and establish himself first. But then everything sucked and it ended before it got started.
>>
>>81431014
Don't be silly anon. Black people can't be main characters in a kung fu show. That would confuse the audience!

Seriously Jermaine would have been a great addition fuck everything
>>
>>81431004
Wuya is voiced by Cree Summers.
>>
ok someone sum up the plot to chronicles so far

i haven't even touched it aside from a wiki skim once and i didn't like what i saw
>>
>>81431039
This Jack, Wuya and Raimundo were the best characters in the world whe i read that jack was originally become the metal monk, i was like why they scrap this idea aside from maybe he works more like a comedy villian, but he was cool
>>
>>81424143
I only saw pictures when /co/ was trying to hype it up.

>>81424201
Glad I didn't watch it.

>>81431276
That would require that someone actually watch this

>>81431276
Alright my memory of Chronicles isn't the best(though I'm kinda glad), this is what I remember.

Basically Omi wanted a new apprentice, he finds Ping Pong and both he and the monks take a liking to him. Then some other shit happens and Chase destroys the temple, and Wuya somehow got trapped in a slinky instead of a puzzle box and Jack frees her again.

The monks then go on a journey to find their new temple and a lot of pointless shit happens like Chase somehow using a shrimp to erase all animals which apparently throws the world into chaos. Then the monks find the new temple and apparently a talking tree who was the original dragon of wood, and Ping Pong is the new dragon of wood who can also use the other monks powers for some reason? Oh and Chase lays an egg he's also Omi's father but the series just flat out forgets it in the next episode so who cares.

Basically all of Chronicles is just one big pile of filler and terrible writing. I don't know how people thought it was good and why they were so keen on defending it.

Marathoned through it, thinking it would live up to the hype it had back when the show was about to start. Was thoroughly disappointed and wasted half a week's worth of time.

>>81427516
The egg and daughter are two separate things.
Chase made his 'daughter' first by pulling out one of his ribs and doing magic stuff to turn the rib into a girl.
The egg, on the other hand, happened some episodes later in the series. No explanation given as to why Chase laid an egg.
