Ninjago is a Danish-Canadian computer-animated television series
produced by The Lego Group. It was created to coincide with the Lego
Ninjago line of construction toys, many of which are based on elements
of the series. It centers on the fictional world of Ninjago, telling
the story of a group of six teenage ninjas and their battles against
the forces of evil. The series was animated in Copenhagen, Denmark, by
Wil Film ApS for the first ten seasons, subtitled "Masters of
Spinjitzu". Animation was relocated to WildBrain Studios (formerly DHX
Media) in Canada starting with the eleventh season. The
English-language voice cast has been recorded in Canada for its entire
run.Ninjago began with two pilot episodes in January 2011, which were
followed by two 13-episode seasons that aired from January to November
2012. Both the Lego theme and the series had an intended shelf life of
three years with the second season planned as the original ending.
However, continued success of the series and its product line led to
the show continuing production with thirteen seasons being produced as
of 2020.The series was created by Michael Hegner and Tommy Andreasen,
two Danish film producers. In Denmark, where the series' original
production companies are located, Ninjago premiered on Nickelodeon. It
airs on various Nickelodeon networks internationally and on Cartoon
Network in the United States, United Kingdom and Poland. In Canada,
the series is broadcast on Teletoon and YTV.The show is mainly set in
the realm of Ninjago, a place loosely inspired by East Asian myths and
culture. While featuring several historically designed buildings and
traditional clothing, Ninjago is in a modern setting, incorporating
large metropolises with skyscrapers, current-age (and futuristic)
vehicles, modern electronics, semi-robotic exo-suits, and other
futuristic technology.
