I mean... interspecies romance has existed in pretty much every incarnation of TMNT. And I'm not just talking about Raph and his furry fetish. Even the more kid-oriented 2012 cartoon had Donnie and April.

Going forward, all of the turtles will be human to begin with.

And it was freaking weird there, too.

Wasn't there some speculation Rise of the TMNT was going to do that? I haven't kept up with the show, did they show the Turtles origins yet in that series?

Agreed. Especially because of the whole borderline stalker angle.

if she is I am cool with it. I don't see why she would leave the comic. No other new mutants like Hob have yet. We will see if it translates into other mediums outside the IDW universe.

Having a fifth turtle and the character being female adds a fresh element. I've seen people discuss it in parts of the internet where TMNT are rarely discussed so it's accomplishing what it set out to do: attract more eyes onto IDW TMNT.
Going forward I think that someday we will eventually see an incarnation of the turtles where one of them is female form the start. Donnie is a good candidate, since he is consistently the least-favored turtle in most iterations it makes him the top candidate to have a major change like that to try to raise the character's appeal. Not saying it should happen, just that I can see it. Because five turtles, while they can make it work especially in the comics, is a lot of characters to juggle when the cast of characters is already pretty big as it is. |

That would constitute taking things a bit too far, I think. Some folks want representation and diversity? Fine. Create new characters, like Jennika and whoever else. Don't mess with the established classics. And especially, especially don't try the "Come on, it's just a fictional character, why do you care so much?" angle like it's a an automatic KO in the discussion, 'cause that baby cuts both ways.

I am cool with Jennika, especially because she doesn’t have boobs. I do worry that she will take away character development from our main cast. I do like the idea of a Angsty TMNT being the only four of their kind and being all male and unable to continue on their legacy, but the IDW comics are less angsty than Steve Murphy so it works in this case. Plus I think she shares too much DNA with the boys to be a romantic interest? |

No idea, but I'm so glad we got a good visual design this time. No stupid boobs and stuff like Venus de Milo. Reptiles don't have milk glands.

My honest hottake answer is no Jennika won't be in TMNT forever. Every version of tmnt has characters that don't crossover unless they are super popular with the fanbase. Or the head writer of whatever version liked that character so they use them in their version. And sorry I think i'm incredibly late to this conversation. >.>
Like most fans of TMNT know who Irma is but nobody expects to see Irma in every iteration of TMNT. |

And what makes Bojack Horseman, Doctor Who's Vastra and Jenny, Star Wars, Armitage III etc. no different in these kinds of relationships?

It was really nice while you were gone. Do you mind going away again?

I would bet heavily against this. We will at least see her in a cartoon before we die. Likely with nostrils.
Edit: Feels like I'm tempting fate with this post. Could be after I die, that'd be fine. Last edited by AquaParade; 08-19-2020 at 11:04 AM. |
