Kailor

Kailor is the het ship between Kai and Skylor from the Ninjago fandom.

Tournament of Elements
When Kai and the other ninja confirmed Zane was alive in “The Invitation”, the noodle shop owner invited them to a tournament. At the port, the ninja fell in line with the other participants. A hooded figure turns her face around towards Kai, infatuating him. Lloyd advises the Ninja of Fire to not let anything distract them. Kai sheepishly agrees, still fixated at her. Aboard on the way to the island, Kai asks Lloyd’s father who is that same girl in orange, to which Garmadon does not know. When another Elemental Master harasses her, Kai tries to intervene but they want him to stay out of that. Kai and Karlof duel, to which the latter has the upper hand. Clouse stops them, and Karlof leaves. The hooded girl apologizes to Kai for being “cold” to him and helps him stand up, extracting some his power to her in the process. Everyone then takes a look at the island at sunrise.

In “Only One Can Remain”, the ferry docks at Chen’s island and the participants enter the castle. The ninja, Garmadon, and the hooded girl are the last to exit. Kai makes way for her as they walk the stairs by pushing aside the ninja and Garmadon, citing “ladies first” and fire melting her icy heart.

Kai gradually started to have a crush on her. Skylor soon was revealed to return these feelings, as they allied with each other to escape the island and defeat Skylor’s evil father.

When Master Chen makes Skylor and Jacob fight, Kai roots for Skylor. They both work together to defeat Master Chen and then they hug. Chen captures the ninja and Skylor tells Chen to spare Kai.

In “The Corridor of Elders”, Kai was in one of the noodle trucks while Skylor monitored them aboard the Bounty. Later, both were two of many who defended the pass against an army of pseudo-Anacondrai. After Chen and the army were banished to the Cursed Realm, Kai wishes Skylor to join his team, while Skylor thought of succeeding the ownership of her father’s noodle shop. She was about to kiss Kai, but Dareth interrupts, wishing to bring the puffy potstickers back on the menu.

Skybound
Kai and Skylor have minor appearances in the last two episodes of the season, but they do not interact directly.

Hunted
Kai and Skylor were reunited when the latter was finally healed from the poison. The next day after Garmadon was arrested, they share a moment together with the other ninja and citizens of Ninjago City.

March of the Oni
During the ending cutscene, Skylor suddenly appears behind Kai and supposedly winks at him, implying their relationship further. As Kai looks behind, he is surprised to see her but glad she is there.

Fanon
This is one of the most popular ships in the fandom, alongside Jaya and Pixane. Fans appreciate their teamwork and development of their relationship. There are currently more than 200 fan-made works on Archive of Our Own. Multiple fan-art of the pair have also been made in social media.

Like Pixane, this pairing does not seem to have any major rivals, if not counting PlasmaShipping and AmberPhoenix.
