These legends of Thundera

began their training as children,

just like you begin today.

Are you ready, young Tygra?

Yes, Master Jaga. I am ready.

Very well. Begin!

You have done your master proud, adolescent Tygra.

One day, you will be the master,

and it will be your duty to teach the next generation of ThunderCats.

I won't let you down, Master Jaga.

[both laughing]

You may have exploded on Thundera,

but I have't forgotten my promise, Master Jaga.

Are you ready to begin your training, young Lion-O?

Yeah! Training! Let's do it. Whoo-hoo!

Very well. Begin!

Ahh!

No. You're supposed to read it.

[shrieks]

Okay. Good start.

For the last time, Lion-O, where's the weak point?

Uh, here?

No, Lion-O. This is a Cycloptopus.

The eye is its weak point. The eye!

Where'e your villain flashcards?

[grumbles] Can we take a break?

Panthro built this new virtual reality video game system,

and it sounds awesome!

And here you go.

You get to play as the coolest, toughest heroes in the universe.

Cool!

[video game beeping]

Hey, WilyKat, what do I look like?

Uh, you look like Panthro.

Oh, you look like Panthro, too.

Actually, he's Panthro 1 and you're Panthro 2.

No, Lion-O. We're gonna do something even more awesome.

We're gonna use the Sword of Omens

and unlock its untold power.

Ooh, I wanna learn this.

[Tygra] The "Flames of Thundera"?

Uh, that's a little advanced.

Let's start off with something basic.

[Lion-O] "The Uncomfortably Warm Breath Attack?"

Ew. That sounds gross, Tygra.

It's not gross.

Just give it a try.

Forward, down, right, left.

-I said down left, right, right. -Those aren't the right moves.

Uh, down, down, yeah. Pretty good moves though, right?

No! They don't do anything.

I don't know. They're working for me.

Huh?

Uh, Lion-O?

Ha, ha, ha!

Who dares conjure The Netherwitch?

Lion-O, what did you do?

Hey. I'm Lion-O. And that's Tygra.

Sorry, what did you say your name was? Jillian?

The Netherwitch.

Breaker of reality, weaver of time,

taker of stuff!

Give me that stuff.

I'll take one of these, maybe one of these.

Ooh, this is nice! [cackling]

We have to stop her.

Time to use everything I've taught you, Lion-O.

-Hmm? -Stop right there, Netherwitch.

Uh, why are you holding my hand?

I don't know. I was nervous.

Oh, these are nice.

A little kitschy, but I can make it work.

[both screaming]

[both grunt]

Oh, no, The Netherwitch must have thrown us into the astral plane.

Quick, we have to go back through the portal!

The portal that just shut behind us.

[growling]

I think we're stuck here, Lion-O.

Don't worry, Tygra.

My sweet moves got us into this mess,

my sweet moves will get us out--

No dancing!

Use the Sword of Omens to call the other ThunderCats.

Now, I don't know if it'll work from this dimension, but we have to try.

Argh. Fine.

Thunder, thunder, thunder, ThunderCats HO!

Whoa! Aah!

-It's more powerful than ever. -[grunting]

Hold on, Lion-O. Help is on the way.

[growling]

Look. Over there!

A health potion. Someone grab it.

Nice work, Panthro 3.

[video game beeping]

Oh, no, here come some bad guys.

[growling]

-We're dumb. -They kinda look like us.

No time to think about that.

Quick, destroy those hideous monsters.

Oh, it's no use. We're trapped.

This is a disaster.

Hmm, maybe that guy can help us.

He looks friendly.

-[growling] -I was incorrect!

Yah!

Who's that?

I don't know, but those are some sweet karate moves.

And even sweeter dance moves.

[disco music playing]

[grunts]

Who is that guy?

Hello, Tygra.

[stuttering] What?

Master Jaga! Is it really you?

I think so. Who did you say I was?

-Jillian? -You're Jaga!

The greatest teacher in Thunderian history!

Oh, yeah. What did I say?

Wait a second.

Didn't Jillian blow up on Thundera?

No, no, Lion-O, this is Jaga.

His spirit must have been trapped here after the explosion.

Hmm. Then what happened to Jillian?

Jaga, I need you to teach Lion-O how to use the Sword of Omens.

Whoops. Whoo-hoo.

It just fell right out of hands.

I've tried to be an amazing teacher like you,

but I failed.

Very well. I will teach young Lion-O.

And soon, he will wield the Sword of Omens

with expert hands.

Yes!

-[whooshing] -Wait. Run!

[upbeat music playing]

[inaudible]

[cackling]

[trumpets playing heroic music]

[music continues]

Man, Jaga is so awesome.

This isn't the Jaga I remember.

And where did you even get a pinata?

The Netherwitch must have robbed someone's birthday party.

I feel kinda bad.

[chomping]

[The Netherwitch] Robot bears? I don't have any of these.

I have some unicorns, and an old tire, and a tree!

[grunting]

I don't do this kinda thing often enough.

Oh, a rock!

Can't have too many rocks.

[both exclaim]

Oh, no, this is really bad, you guys.

The Netherwitch is dismantling Third Earth.

Master Jaga, we need to get serious.

Hmm. Yes, I agree.

We have learned many things,

but now it is the time for rules.

Finally! There's the Jaga I know.

Get ready, Lion-O. Time for rules.

-[Lion-O] You were right, Tygra! -[upbeat music playing]

This rules! [laughing]

-That's enough! -[music stops]

What are you doing, Master Jaga?

This is nothing like my lessons.

[shushing]

Tygra, my son, this is your lesson,

your final lesson.

I don't understand.

In order to become master,

you must realize that no two students are alike.

Lion-O will never be Tygra.

Oh, hey, I can see my own butt.

And Tygra will never be Jaga.

The master helps the students become themselves.

I don't know. I really feel like serious studying

is still the way to go here.

Very well, then.

Quickly, study this book.

Oh, that is strangely effective.

Lion-O, I think you'd better do those dance moves again.

[gasps] Are you sure?

Kind of.

-But this time make 'em even cooler. -[disco music playing]

[gasps] You got it, Tygra!

Forward, down, right, left,

wiggle, wiggle, spin!

[scatting]

Whoa!

It's working!

[whooshes]

[all gasp]

Uh, why's it so far away?

Guess I wiggled when I should have jiggled.

It's all right, Lion-O, you still did it.

Now, let's go save Third Earth.

Are you coming, Master Jaga?

No. My place is here. [claps]

[peppy music playing]

Wow. This is a nice place.

-Is that pizza? -Look! The portal!

It's collapsing.

There's no time. You must go!

Try and swipe my slices.

I'll show you.

Come on, Lion-O.

I think we can get there if we use the rocks.

[both grunting]

Still pretty far, but I think we can make it.

That's the ticket!

[both grunting]

Uh-oh. Not close enough.

[roars]

[Lion-O] How about we hitch a ride?

[both] Whoa!

Man, I missed the portal.

Together, Lion-O.

Left. Now right. Now left.

We're doing steering!

[Tygra] That portal's about to shut!

[Lion-O] Jump!

-Yeah! -We made it!

Oh, boy, this is gonna look real nice in my dimension.

Oh, no, she's got Cats Lair!

Hey, get back in my dimension.

Sorry, Netherwitch, but Jaga's ghost taught Tygra how to teach me.

And now, I'm a master of inter-dimensional travel.

[disco music playing]

That's it?

You don't stand a--

Whoa! Whoa!

Help! Make it stop! I'll give it all back.

I promise! [screaming]

That's it, Lion-O!

Whoa-ho-ho! The aura's so realistic.

[grunting] Not fair.

Your dimension has all the cool stuff.

All I have is big fat demons and floating rocks.

Why don't you come visit any time you like?

You can be a tour guide for all your big fat demon friends.

Uh, Lion-O, I wouldn't do that.

But I would.

Let me do this my way.

Trust me, Tygra.

Oh, all right, Lion-O.

What's the worst thing that can happen?

[demons roaring]

[cackling]

This is awesome!

That's not what I had in mind.

But I gotta say, it was a pretty good idea, Lion-O.

I'm the one who had to upgrade the graphics.

Come on, doesn't anyone want to play as Panthro?

Heck, yeah!

-Panthro dance party! -[dance music playing]

[all cheering]

Hmm.

Whoo! Ha-ha! Ha!
