Most well animated episodes
In the 1987, 2003 and 2012 series, which episodes had animation that was well done and fluent? Some are almost movie quality. Which stuck out in your mind?
|
"I, Monster" (2003) comes to mind.
|
1987 series: All season one episodes, Turtles on Trial

Also, I think it's worth noting that all episodes of the Nick series pretty much look the same in terms of how well animated they are. Due to it being rendered in CGI, there is no need to constantly make new frames as the computer will handle the frames, so the animation is about as fluid in all episodes.
So the only way the Nick cartoon is really improving in it's animation, is in how many things can be put on screen. |
1987: Season 1, Shredderville, the Maltese Hamster (my favorite episode), The Big Cufflink Caper!, Leonardo Versus Tempestra
2003: Shredder Strikes Back (I haven't seen all of this show) 2012: season 2 finale (I thought the animation in it was the best of the series so far), Of Rats and Men, Eyes of the Chimera (those flying scenes) |
Of the 1987 episodes all the Red Sky(last 24) were well done. I know there was the scripting error of Krang's body being on Earth when they were stranded but that is not necessarily an animator mistake. So the first five and last 24. In between? Not many I suspect. Even the title card was messed up for a number of the first 65 episodes having Leo with an orange mask.

Imo. In the first or second episode Donatello jumps over April to stop here and all you hear is Raph's voice :lol: |

There are a couple of beautifully animated episodes in season 3 - Turtles on Trial and The Attack of the 50 ft Irma. Seasons 6 and 8 arealso pretty well animated.
|
Season 2 has good animation.

My favorite piece of animation from the OT is Krang's introduction in episode two. He looks really slimy and gooey, with his body stretching and morphing and being very detailed.
The title sequence has the best animation, the anatomy and fluidity is perfect there. |
I wish we had a Disney-tier animated film. Man, to see the boys in that level of quality, the fluidity of motion, the physics of it all, if only...
Much of the OT is very stiff. It doesn't hinder my ability to enjoy it, but it's noticeable, & unfortunate. The first season is wayyyyy ahead of the rest, but even that is lacking at times. |
