Honestly rit's stupid to me, especially with what happens to B and R

The question still remains though. What is this story about?

I wonder if additional stories could be done maybe in 2D animated form to add to the story and fill in the gaps. Maybe a web series but that would compete against the new show so it probably wouldn't happen. However, that didn't stop them from releasing all those weird animated shorts over the summer. If they did do more of those, I'd rather see them based on the currently finished show.

Probably a dumb idea but this arc just seemed so jarring as if they skipped over some major stuff that I'm sure lots of us would've wanted to see.

You mean Nick's Bebop and Rocksteady? Them turning over a new leaf and becoming good guys fits them fine. It was the perfect end to them.

Its time to finally tackle this, the series finale of the Nick tmnt series! I can't believe it was all over yesterday night when I got around to watching all 3 episodes, the series that began almost 5 years ago has finally come to an end.

On my thoughts regarding the actual episodes themselves, I thought they were good, great even but not the all out finale of perfection that I was building it up to be. That was a slight dissapointment, but I honestly can't complain as I thought the very last scene of all the brothers re-uniting was perfect. The world may be in peril, no one may have survived, but the spirit that kept all 4 turtles together was strong as ever.

It certainly helps that I am a big fan of the Mad Max series, especially Fury Road, so I'm a bit biased towards this episode emotionally, but lets start with what was legitimately good about it:

1. The implication that the Turtles may have had a final battle with the Kraang, something that I hoped for since this season began.
2. Chompy, though I was not especially big on Ice Cream Kitty's re-appearance, considering she could not only not survive in a desert and didn't visibly age at all, but had a musical to herself not too long ago.
3. The fact that the special set aside time for the turtles to just have fun and enjoy themselves, even as the world around them was grim.
4. Raphs, Dons and Mike's new look.
5. I liked Meera's character. I was initially hoping for Alopex instead, but I'm content with what we got.
6. The lack of April, Casey, Karai, Shinigami. Alot of people may have not liked these episodes for this reason but I think having just the turtles was a smart choice for this one final story.
7. The action/chase scenes.

As for the cons:
1. Leo's new look, I didn't like it that much
2. I didn't care much for Verminator Rex, but I thought the Lizard people were cool. Still think the Kraang should've been chasing the turtles instead.
3. The ending was a bit rushed in my opinion, they could've explored the past a bit more and elaborated on how the apolcalyptic wasteland exactly came into being, and clarified what the turtles decide to do after they reach Oasis, try and rebuild the world with trees maybe?

8/10.

Fugitoid usually auto corrects to Fugitive when I type it, so that's a possibility too. And by the way am I the only bothered by Mikey having hair? Especially Raph at least shaved , but Mikey looked ridiculous . I don't mind Mikey's design except for that ( and the underwear he's wearing), and like the concept of an old senile Mikey but that decision to give him hair baffled me.

matteso586 · 09-23-2017, 07:07 PM

Took me a day after to realize. Meera is the same voice actress as Lucy Loud and Flame Princess. Come to think of it, I wonder if Peter DiCicco and Jessica DiCicco are related. Or am I just getting confused and misspelled their last names?

Oh, that's a good point about the auto correct. Maybe he did mean Fugitoid. Hopefully this story comes to light.

Raph with a beard was weird and yes, Mikey with hair was also weird. Makes you wonder why the need for hair. At first I was annoyed but I quickly shrugged it off.

Fugitoid's VA is from Doctor Who, isn't he? He was probably too famous or busy to get back again in real life to come back for an episode.

Or maybe it's because he's the main character in another cartoon right now? That might fit the "too busy" thing. But they could also voice match if they couldn't get him back. Tom Taylorson from Battle Match sounds close enough to work. It's not like they've never replaced a voice on here before.

*CyberCubed* · 09-23-2017, 07:16 PM

Come to think of it I wonder if the original plan was for Donnie to be put into Fugitoid's body instead of Metalhead. It would have been more fitting than Don just put into a rebuilt Metalhead. If he was put into Fugitoid's body we probably would have still heard Fugitoid speak too and they'd both co-exist in the same robot frame.

Hardly, it's more in character that when they say it they have their fingers crossed. Honestly them trying to redeem these "closure" to characters like them and Tigerclaw has done badly.

Heck there ain't no going back, Rocksteady was a weapons dealer

Rocksteady being a weapons dealer doesn't mean evil, there are weapons dealers in real life, and Bebop was a thief. Even then them realizing Shredder/Krang were going to take over or destroy the world wasn't what they wanted, so they helped the Turtles defeat them and thought about turning over a new leaf.

*Allio* · 09-23-2017, 08:12 PM

Saving the world doesn't equate to being a hero. There is such thing as choosing the lesser of two evils.

Honestly the most probable is that the two of them are on an adrenaline high and they will be back to their old selves

*CyberCubed* · 09-23-2017, 08:15 PM

Or maybe they try the hero thing for a little while and it doesn't work out. Either way it was a proper ending for them, even ignoring this timeskip.

*TigerClaw* · 09-23-2017, 10:01 PM

I wonder if the Show's creators borrow this from the TMNT and Other Strangeness RPG.
http://turtlepedia.wikia.com/wiki/After_the_Bomb

There was a supplement called "After The Bomb" which is set in the near future.

Quote:

In the near future, gene modifying technology has become widespread and inexpensive, allowing for consumer-level gene modifying kits. People began experimenting with transgenic hybrids, creating their own mutant animals. Creating human hybrids was technically illegal, but was impossible to enforce (since everyone has a full set of human genes).

Some kids decided to make a homebrew virus, based on the human genome, and release it into the wild. Roughly three-quarters of humanity died, and the virus also began to infect other animals, modifying their genetic code. The remaining governments decided this must have been an act of bio-terrorism, and waged nuclear war. Collectively, this fall of human civilization was known as The Crash.

After a few generations, animals with human looks or other mutations became common, leading to the world of After the Bomb.

You know I been thinking and based on the ending are they going to use the Oasis to jumpstart the planet or are they just going to keep it to themselves, also how come Donnie didn't try to communicate with any of the alien species the turtles encountered I mean there has to be some letover Kraang tech he could use to communicate with extra terrestrials allies or find some sort of new Dimension.

Well its been 50 years, I'm sure at one point he tried. You gotta remember, they've had 50 years worth of adventures from the time the bomb went off until we caught up with them.

Apparently Timothy did appear in the final, In the fight arena. So Timothy/Mutagen Man got his closure.
