That moment when I read that the Bohrok were Matoran scarred me like nothing else, since we saw Nuparu, Taipu, and Onepu literally rip apart a few Bohrok to make Boxors. Hoo boy, so Nuparu was basically mutilating Matoran carcasses to make robots out of them. Good job. My #1 plot twist might actually be that Mata Nui died, since that was really shocking when I read the comic back in '07. For a character that so many heroes sacrificed to save, it was meaningless for about 2 months.

The reveal of the Mata Nui robot (and its subsequent takeover by Teridax) is probably still my favourite twist in all of fiction. Advance Copenhagen certainly did the moment justice with their animation. On the off chance that anyone who didn't catch the story while it was ongoing is reading this, that moment when the eyes turned red was essentially our equivalent of the Snap. A moment where, in spite of everything the heroes had done over the course of almost a decade, the bad guy wins.

I really feel that the reveal of the GSR is the ultimate revelation. I remember viewing the animation when I got up in the morning and being unable to think straight the entire day because I was so blown away. Teridax's takeover seemed almost minor in comparison to this one.

If you are sent somewhere you don't actually originate from that place. You originate where you're conceived. The Toa Mata/Nuva were created by Artakha by order of the Order of Mata Nui. Then they were transported to Daxia and awakened in the Order of Mata Nui fortress there inside a spherical chamber. Then they were trained by Hydraxon and then finally transported to Karda Nui to save the Av-Matoran from the Avokah and then go into the Codrex to sleep in the canisters. For anyone who wanted a brief summary of the Toa Mata/Nuva's origin with most of the details :)

I never saw the Red Star as taking anything but mystery away from the story. Most characters that had died couldn't have come back anyway. Nidhiki and Krekka were absorbed by Makuta, Matoro was dissolved, Roodaka had already escaped death to begin with, as had Zaktan. the Makuta couldn't have come back except MAYBE Krika and Icarax. With the exception of Lhikan and Mavrah, no characters we actually knew could've come back, plus I find the reveal useless since the story arc was never completed. I wonder if Lhikan would've been revived as a Turaga or a Matoran.

So revelation of Makuta being a species in 2008, Spherus/Bara Magna being where Bionicle chronologically began and that Great Beings are basically responsible for creating the saga isn't big enough of plot twists?

That was fantastic, i knew all except the fact about bohrok=av-matoron. honestly out of all the stories that have been evolving, i.e marvel vs dc heroes and storylines bionicle had the best. from a tribal (almost maori culture) to a complex and everchanging civilisation. i understand that stories like these can be overwhelming complex, but i must say im glad to have grown up with bionicle. the characters created and lessons learned... i loved it all and nothing can compare to such an awesome concept such as the creation of Bionicle. thethreevirtues

I have a theory, the bionicle reboot, takes place BEFORE the original story line. Think about it, the toa we have now in the reboot are the same characters that appeared in 2001, but before mata nui, they went through okoto defeating the skull spiders, skill grinder, and who knows what else after that. Perhaps Karada nui is where they ended up after what happens, or what's going to happen in the reboot. They were put in stasis in the canisters and ended up on mata nui in pieces. Perhaps those pieces were the mangled remains of the toa in the reboot. That would also explain why the original toa mata had a lack of armor, because the armor was destroyed upon arrival in mata nui. And if that's not enough evidence to support my theory, you'll notice in the web series that certain aspects of the scenery form the shape of the Vahi, the mask of time. This would imply that the reboot exists in the same universe and timeline. If I'm not mistaken, the name of the great spirit was "mata nui" and he had a brother named "makuta." In the reboot, Makuta has a brother named Ekimu, What if Ekimu IS mata nui, the younger version. Makuta and mata nui hated each other in the original series, but the real reason was never exactly explained. In the reboot, makuta and Ekimu/matan nui were both mask makers, and makuta was jealous of Ekimu because the masks he made were better than makuta, maybe that's the entire reason why they hated each other. Another thing to consider is the mask of ultimate power, we still know virtually nothing about it other than it holds the power of all the combined elements. It was also the whole reason makuta became evil, so it's likely to assume that the mask of ultimate power plays a huge HUGE roll in the course of the reboot, and if my theory is correct or at least plausible, the original story as well. Notice that the mask of ultimate power has a very similar appearance to the mask of shadows (makuta's mask in the original series.) But it's really just a theory... A GAME THE- oh wait, wrong channel...

Followed TTV vessel account. I got to hand it to you guys, the page looks really great. Nice job TTV!

the biggest reveal to me was that the matoran universe was actually built on Bara Magna/Spherus Magna

That moment when all the "religious metaphors" about the great spirit, fallen from the sky, and aweking him was more like a robotic version of "Once upon a time... Life" or "Ozzy & Drix" is quite shocking, revealing and less awkward that it sounded at first in the movies. Who thought the city of Metru Nui was Mata Nui's brain?

Great video! One plot twist that took by by surprise as a kid was Vakama turning evil. There are too many good ones to choose from to be my favorite though!

Matorans being transformed into Bohroks reminds of the concept of the Big Daddies from Bioshock

thethreevirtues I think the Red Star still keeps the event of death significant. The key detail I like to remember is that when a spirit, if it gets up there to begin with (poor Carapar), is driven insane by the process and loses all memory. So even if, which is a big if, a character comes back it won't be the character we remember at all. At best it's just their physical appearance. Thanks for the great video as always.

Number 1 and 2 deserve their spots perfectly - heck, I even was kind of happy about 1 because I was in my phase of "why do the good guys always have to win?"

These Bionicle Top Tens are cool, especially when it introduces me more to Bionicle that I didn't know or think hard about before (I'm mainly talking about the Bohrok's purpose and origin from this video). I also think Viper did a good narration in the video, but seemed slow paced in the beginning. The idea of plot twists and introducing the top ten list could've been shorter, considering the visual representation in the background. But a good job nonetheless!

Looking away from how the advertisement spoiled it by showing screenshots of Takua putting on the Avohkii, seeing Takua becoming the seventh Toa was legitimately shocking if you had followed the character up to that point. He was pretty much the most well-developed Matoran and every bit a symbol for the golden years as the Toa Mata/Nuva themselves, so seeing him having such a major character shift was pretty unexpected to say the least.

You know, I don't think even the staff knew. They followed a rule of bad storytelling, which is to make up a big scene and then write the story around creating that scene, rather than letting the story naturally get to that scene and giving the subsequent awesomeness meaning. They didn't know how the Matoran universe was inside of (or originally, on top of) Mata Nui's dormant robot body, the graphic artists just wanted to make a desert with gigantic wave-one balljoints sticking up out of the dunes as an awesome spectacle. While it promises something awesome, we never actually see what form the Matoran universe actually takes inside of Mata Nui's body, or if it's all some sort of mysticism of imagination from a dreaming robot or some such BS, which would defeat the purpose of the mechanical nature of construction for every single being involved and destroy the appeal of the entire franchise on principle... It's too complicated to make as part of the lore of a convoluted bionic-tribal-cyberpunk-magic-plus-technology injection-molded Danish toy. Bionicle's lore was already extremely loose and forced a lot of suspension of disbelief with its very concept and only got more disjointed from there. We got prequels of prequels, timelines that didn't make sense, geography that was cut and pasted solely for visual recognition, names or identities or entire story arcs of characters were shamelessly recycled, none of it leading to any sort of cohesive planned structure that would necessitate this final robot-body outcome from the start. It wasn't planned. It was all pulled out of their butts, solely for the awe and acclaim of autistic inbred nine year olds with their parents' money. The quality went down, and never went back up. TL;DR, *Not even the staff who wrote it know what's going on. It solely existed to sell increasingly crappy toys, and frankly deserved the offhand remark it got in the Lego Movie.*

I agree with Teridax takeover as the #1, but I was surprised that we didn't include the revelation of the Order of Mata Nui in Time Trap (by the dying Karzahni plant, of all beings!), an organization that was able to out-trick Makuta into creating the Toa Metru that Mata Nui wanted in the first place. After the Metru Nui saga shows off these massive organizations of bad guys - the brotherhood and the Dark Hunters - lying in wait for the Metru Nui Matoran to return to their universe, it comes a great relief that there's a massive lawful-good organization to help balance it out.
