However, the Ninjago franchise continues to thrive through its sequel series, Ninjago: Dragons Risingwhich premiered on Netflix in June 2023. This new series is considered a continuation of the Ninjago universe, featuring both returning characters like Lloyd, Kai, and Nya, alongside new ninja such as Arin and Sora.
