Info may become outdated over time. As you know, the Sixteen Realms are interconnected and the balance affects us all. When one falls, another falls apart. The realms of Creation are a variety of worlds that Ninjago is one of, located within the Ethereal Divide. Originally, there were Sixteen Realms apart from Ninjago. Following the destruction of the Cursed Realm when the Preeminent was destroyed, along with the destruction of Djinjago, there are currently only fourteen realms parallel to Ninjago. Despite being of different worlds, the realms have multiple passageways and networks that can be used to access each other, with some forming naturally, and others having to be conjured.
Cursed Realm destroyed by Nya, Departed Realm way active. As for why Nexo Knights is not connected in terms of realms, Tommy Andreasen stated that “Not everything needs to be linked” and Nexo Knights “has a more easy going vibe. The concept of the realms is similar to the Nine Realms from Norse Mythology. The Hageman Brothers came up with the idea of the realms. The concept of the realms is different from the common science fiction parallel-timeline multiverse idea, as there are no alternate universes in Ninjago. According to Tommy Andreasen, every realm has a sister realm.
According to Tommy Andreasen, Ninjago and the Underworld are not sister realms. The realms are surrounded by an infinitely vast, formless void known as the Ethereal Divide. Time passes differently in some realms, explaining how the Sky Pirates stayed alive for 200 years from Ninjago’s perspective while being trapped in other realms. However, none of the realms in the series so far have shown such a time difference. When the events of Skybound were undone by Jay’s final wish in “The Way Back”, other realms may not have been affected. There is conflicting information about the exact number of realms there are.
Some information indicates sixteen including Ninjago, and others state that there sixteen beyond Ninjago, which would mean there are seventeen realms in total. In “The Darkness Comes”, Wu referred to the realms as the “Lands of Creation,” implying that they may have some affiliation with or were created by the power of Creation. He also referred to them as the “realms of Creation” in “A Cold Goodbye. In “A Cold Goodbye,” Wu said that the Never-Realm is the most distant of all realms. It is unknown whether the Cloud Kingdom affects Chima or other realms, whether residents of realms besides Ninjago go to the Departed Realm upon death, or whether disgraced warriors from realms other than Ninjago go to the Underworld. The Digiverse is not a realm. Unagami and Dareth refer to Prime Empire as a realm.
However, it is not a realm. Tommy Andreasen doesn’t think the sixteen doors seen in “Grave Danger” lead to the other sixteen realms. Although the location where the ninja fought Clouse in The Realm of Shadows was said to be a realm by Tommy Andreasen, it appears to be simply a temple in the Toxic Bogs. Tommy Andreasen has stated that Chima is his favorite realm. When asked if the other realms would eventually fall as the Cursed Realm and Djinjago had, Tommy Andreasen replied, “There is an end to everything. This implies that ultimately all the realms will be destroyed or become uninhabitable. It is currently unknown whether all realms will ever be shown, because “stuff like that needs to happen organically.
Outer space is not a realm. In “Grave Danger” Cole talks about the Realm of hurt, although it may just be a fabrication. As shown in “How to Build a Dragon,” in the First Realm it is possible to listen to the broadcast from Ninjago. The symbols from the first test represent the 16 realms. The ying-yang symbol probably represents Ninjago.
