The shen gon wu's powers seem to be the same as in the old series (if you're refering to the Shroud of Monster Camo, personally I don't think it's the renamed version of the Shroud of Shadows. The Shroud of Monster Camo makes it's user completely invisible but it's effect can wear off, the Shroud of Shadows, in contrast, makes only the part that is covered by it invisible and it's effect does not randomly shut-off and on again. So I think they're the same as the Eye of Dashi and Thorn of Thunderbolt in the sense that they're 2 different wu that have the exact same power [shooting lightning], I think the Star of Hanabi/Hanabi Star has the same function as well but Kimiko can, so to say, "override" this by infusing it with her element, making it shoot fire instead of lightning).

Yeah, I also had a somewhat hard time understanding Ping Pong, but I think I'll get used to it as the series progresses :), not to mention that I liked his personality almost instantly xD.

As to why Dojo's yellow, I guess it's for the same reason the Temple and Chase Young look different, they managed to get the copyright rights to the character's names and parts of XS story-line (or all of it and just decided to leave out a few things or skip a few things [continuing the story after the other 3 monks had reached the rank of shoku warrior as well making them all be on equal footing instead of one of them being in charge and more powerful then the rest, leaving out Hannibal, etc.).

The only thing which I really hope they elaborate on is... when and how did Wuya get her powers back and how did the monks get Master Dashi to come to their time and trap her again [it's clear that this would be the 2nd-3rd time she's been imprissoned by him/by him providing the means to trap her as Wuya and Jack already knew each other), because I'm not sure if the Sands of Time still existed or was in the possession of the monks, or anyone for that matter, when XS ended. I guess there was more then 1 time traveling wu then *shrugs*.

What do you think about the fact that other xiaolin dragons can also make wu/made wu? I think it's a good thing the creators decided to make it so that Dashi wasn't the sole creator of the wu since it would explain quite a few things such as the Sapphire Dragon and the Heart of Jong/Mala Mala Jong.
