The reason why the Ninja mask can work/grant anyone the Ninja suit is because it's symbolic. It means that, anyone can be a hero and help others, but only few will risk their lives for others. Those that will put themselves in danger for others is what makes them deserving to be The Ninja.
I think it’s also for the fact that the mask helps people become better people as we see that the original ninja gave up while randy kept on fighting, it was only realising what the fight really meant did he return
1:19 I just noticed this but Randy has the silhouette of the ninja but in the next few frames he’s Randy. I really adore that detail and it shows how the animators really loved making little details like this
@@HambaAllah-ch9so Well he must be big brain judging by his fast reaction time but hes teen enough to act like one to stay undercover (or be almost exposed if that werent for Howard's puppetry skills, which still makes me question how oblivious everyone is to be fooled). But yes true hero's heart is the one that protects the innocent from evil.
2:37 can we appreciate how randy is throwing down with a full on adult? ik it's the nomicon, but Jesus Christ randy is fighting someone who was the ninja longer, and trained in martial arts past ninja life
whats more, he was mainly being surpessed because he had more expeirence with the supernatural abilities the Nomicon grants, on pure fists and kciks fight they were pretty toe-to-toe is not a little below
@@rougedragonwhiteflame3990 to be fair, Randy is really athletic. In the beginning of the video he jumps high enough to land on the robot AND chases it down.
I actually like That is not like others superheros, they Just fight once without the suit or whatever and then forget that ever happened but randy has to fight without the mask several times and shows that he is a hero by his own
Because he knows that sometimes he wont have that privilege of the arsenal suit has. So he had to train hard on precision and agility everytime hes off screen i guess. This just shows how in reality while not smartest he definitely can solve otherwise very difficult task. Or if hes being handicapped
2:33 seeing him fight without the ninja suit makes me just UGH RANDYYYY 😩😩💓💓💓💕💕✨✨ like this boi is soooo kind, has a virtue of selfless caring, hates lying, an amazing friend, super strong and has a great sense of humor.. HE'S GOT THE WHOLE PACKAGE BOII 😩😩💓💕✨✨
Fun fact: According to a tumble post by one of the artist of the show, this robot's name is *Kill Bot.* Which personality for me, I just find it insanely dark, Idk why, I just do.
@@SabeNo-rh7mb I heard that there was an asylum in real life, named "Penhurst asylum" where there's was a doctor who performed all kinds of torture like experiments. That's doctor name was literally, *Doctor Fear*, dr Jesse Fear.
As if all machinery from McFist or demons from Sorcerrers magic werent about causing death. The first one obviously is Scorpion Bot and the second one i like to call Mantis even if it doesnt look like one the face of that robot looks like mantis and i am sure that the claws packs quite a fatal punch
This element of the show is one of the reasons why I always liked this series and Randy😊 He's pretty skilled with or without his mask. Not to mention pretty strong and agile. This is the type of nuance that shows like Miraculous, a show that practically copied this show's plot and other elements, don't have. I love both shows, but this show was always better written with more likable and dynamic characters.
Definitely I love Miraculous (Adrigami: OTP and Plagg) but Randy even with NO SEASON 3 and cancelation it still brings more to the table. Better characters in short, is what makes it fun. They actually get character development and personality. (Randy/Rachel: OTP)
Imagine a death battle between these two. Ladybug vs ninja. Who would win. My reasoning behind this matchup may or may not be entirely based on them both seeing colorful shapes that show their thought process throughout a fight
I wonder if Ben Schwartz would be on board to play Randy again, because everytime I see clips of this show, he seems to be having such a fun time, such as 4:46
If they ever want to reboot the show, but Ben isn’t in, there’s no point. His voice is really unique, and unless they can find someone who can emulate the same energy it won’t truly feel like Randy. It’s kinda like how Alex Hirsch knew he wanted Kristen Schall (I’m extremely sorry, I’m not actually sure what Mabel’s VA’s name is) to voice Mabel, and he said there was no point to doing the show without her. I’m sure Alex was exaggerating when he said that, but still.
I only got into Randy Cunningham recently, but it’s a really fun show that I wish had more content to it :D It’s so great seeing a character who has a physical fighting style still do fighting stuff outside of the magic suit - sure, the suit is important for his durability/impressive strength to be able to actually fight and take down robots… but you still learn things about fighting and how to move your body, or strategize on the fly, maneuver around enemies, etc. that can still be applied without magic! Besides the voice, if Randy ever pulled more of the stuff in this video near his classmates he’d definitely be outed as the Ninja lol
I just love this trope of the maskless hero SO much. The mask might be the tool. But every tool is meaningless if the owner doesn't have what it takes. This show aired during a time in which many Disney shows were dumb (at least judging from the ones available in my country). That is probably why it unfortunately got underrated despite its humour, story and characters.
OOHH YESSS YOU DID IT!! Thank you so much! I love my bby boy, and I'm always so proud of him, especially when he fights or tries his best to protect people even without his mask! He really is a true hero and right person to be the Ninja ❤️
2:14 They could’ve name the the shark Kaiju Sharkzilla or even friggin MEGLADON! That’s more clever than what the ever the fuck the things actual name!
4:46 Randy: Ain’t no shame in losing to the class of IN YOUR FACE! Me: I would’ve said the same thing, however before leaving I would’ve also said “later loser” to Mac because… well I love being dramatic.
Man i just remember watching this on disney channel and use to love it even tho the episodes where well jumbled- sadly i never really saw every episode i hardly remember some but this bring back nostalgia, and this video really is prob one of the reasons i like this show well when i rewatched it but it is sad this was discontinued :C, the show and its type of slang was very interesting and it was very unique to other show ive watched. EDIT: i just realized is it a coincidence that the signature shirt he wears in most episodes has the icon or symbol of the ninja suit and nomicon i thought it would be something to point out and keep in mind he wored this shirt before he became the ninja its a small detail i havent seen anyone talk about much i wonder why he has this specifically symboled shirt that has a similarity with the symbol of the ninja?
like grandpa max said: you dont need the watch to be a hero i think i havent watched ben 10 in years le edit: What im saying is basically you don't need some fancy powers or gadgets to be a hero a true hero is if you help people because it is what is needed to be done or because you wanna help...
Randy even without the suit is not only athletic but also has a great knowledge of martial arts, based on this and other feats I wonder how strong he would be in Kengan Asura standards... God I need a crossover fanfic of that. Edit: YES i got a ♥️✨
1:27 I just thought about something,has anyone think that the robot looks like a girl it probably shows how Debbie was the ninja’s downfall until Howard proved his innocence)can you use comments if you like it
I always thought the drawings he saw were the nomicon, but if he sees it even without the suit, Is it a Marinette/Miraculous situation, that’s all him and it’s just so that the viewers can visualize what he’s thinking??
I think it's the Nomicon projecting those images in his head because he actively dissagrees with it in some episodes like in the season 2 finale where it tells him to get the sorcerer's help
something that was probably accidental but i find cool is that the show makes it clear that the mask isn't what makes randy the ninja, and they're entirely right. all the powers the mask gives him are stuff a real ninja wouldn't have, but a lot of randy's actual skills are stuff a real ninja might find useful, from the obvious like his combat skill and tool usage, to the more overlooked ninja art of having a good charisma stat.
4:50 this episode was creepy for quite a few reasons, the main one being the swamp guy (forgot his name) wanting to cook Howard alive and enslave Randy with a collar. You know, for kids.
1:38 I've never understood why no one admired Randy for this, regardless of whether or not they knew he was the ninja. This is from when he got busted by a the smartest/dumbest reporter alive. (Smart, because she figured it out, dumb, because she IMMEDIATELY PUT HIM IN DANGER by failing to realize 'hey, the ninjas enemies could use this info to kill him while he's vulnerable') This entire thing was BROADCASTED right up until Randy got too far into the woods. They WATCHED as Randy, unarmed and alone, emerged from hiding to lure this robot away from innocent people. Anyone else would have just stayed put, but Randy risked his life to protect innocent people, and they saw him do it. Even if they were convinced he wasn't the ninja, he's still the guy who risked it all to buy time for his classmates until the Ninja showed up. Also, when the reporter was trying to convince everyone she was right, she never once pointed out that using himself as bait for the thing specifically sent to kill him while unable to access his weapons was pretty heroic.
The reason why the Ninja mask can work/grant anyone the Ninja suit is because it's symbolic. It means that, anyone can be a hero and help others, but only few will risk their lives for others. Those that will put themselves in danger for others is what makes them deserving to be The Ninja.
That kinda explains why when Howard wore the suit he didn't even try to do any flips or anything.
Kinda like Excalibur from Soul Eater, only the few can actually Stand to use it the dang thing, But if you Can stand it, You Are Awesome!
Yeah, it's very much what Stan Lee said about Spiderman in one interview years ago. "Anyone can be Spiderman".
I think it’s also for the fact that the mask helps people become better people as we see that the original ninja gave up while randy kept on fighting, it was only realising what the fight really meant did he return

Dude that’s a REALLY good catch!
Man this show is flawed, but boy do I love it.
Probably explains why he was chosen. He's very athletic.
And randy is a nobody,so no one will notice he is missing or not
Yet he didnt join the school athlete team

Which proves randy knows martial arts
And that he beat bash up
I always got the theory that randy slowly learns kung fu or other martial arts because slowly he started to learn.
The suit really only provides protection, really proves that powers or not, the hero will always arise
It also provides super strength, speed, and stamina, but your point still stands
