In the United States, the two pilot episodes of Ninjago: Masters of Spinjitzu, later split into four episodes in total, were shown on Cartoon Network on January 14, 2011.[1] They were released in Europe on January 24, 2011. Following the popularity of the pilot episodes, the first season titled Rise of the Snakes was launched from December 2011 to April 2012.[2] The pilot episodes were released on DVD in March 2011, and the first season became available on DVD in Region 1 on June 26, 2012.[3] Each pilot episode has a runtime of 11 minutes, totalling 22 minutes when combined into two episodes. The 22-minute format remained consistent throughout the series until the release of the eleventh season titled Secrets of the Forbidden Spinjitzu, when it was reduced to 11 minutes.[4]
The pilot episodes introduce five of the show's six main teenage ninja characters named Kai, Cole, Jay, Zane and Nya and their wise master, Sensei Wu that would remain the central characters of the series. The storyline focuses on the ninja team's efforts to stop the villainous Lord Garmadon from obtaining the four Golden Weapons of Spinjitzu.[5]
