Water Pressure (Bionicle Short Film)

Gali's been feeling kind of down lately. I hope she'll be ok!

----------

The original version of this animation uses the Māori term 'tohunga' as the name of a fantasy race, continuing the usage as established by Lego in their official Bionicle material. However, in accordance with an agreement made with three Māori tribes, Lego themselves ceased using this term. This should have been reflected in this animation. I also took the Māori term 'ririki' to name a character as a joke.

That was wrong of me so this new version amends this. You can still access the original at this url:    • Water Pressure (Bionicle Short Film)  

Many other terms used in Bionicle were ripped from Māori and other Polynesian languages without consultation or consent. It can be difficult to make Bionicle things without using these terms sometimes (how do you refer to a character who has always been known as 'Tahu' by a different name effectively?) but I would encourage you to be better than I was when I made this, and not use in your own creations the terms the three Maori tribes explicitly requested Lego to change, or go out and steal terms yourself.
