Irma: cute or no?

~~Toonami Tom~~ · 03-27-2008, 06:50 PM

In the original toon, April was always seen as the 'hot' female character on TMNT. Now, there was also Irma, but due to her personality traits and frumpy clothes she was never seen in the same way as April.

Do you think if Irma wore different clothes that she would be considered 'attractive'? If she got a different pair of glasses? She really isn't ugly.

*MrPliggins* · 03-27-2008, 06:53 PM

I don't know that I ever saw April as "hot"..maybe it's because she wore yellow, my least favorite color. I don't think Irma was attractive, though. She was too "whiny" and annoyingly boy crazy.

Absolutely! ^_^ She's sweet in a shallow sort of way and had horrible fashion sense, but she was neither unatractive nor unworthy of respect. So, I'd take a friend like her, but that's likely all we'd ever be.

*Coola Yagami* · 03-27-2008, 08:30 PM

Dude, I find her totally cute... and I'd be more than just her friend... I'd try to be the guy she was always lookin for...

*Shark_Blade* · 03-27-2008, 09:23 PM

To be honest yes she's cute, and her personality is sweet too.

*sdp* · 03-27-2008, 10:12 PM

At least she didn't look like Archie Irma

*Revan* · 03-27-2008, 11:10 PM

I thought she was kind of annoying but ultimately good for the OT. If she had been a character in the current series I doubt anyone would harbor any positive feelings for her but she seemed to be a desent fit for the 87 series.

I suppose she was cute

Jelly Bean · 03-27-2008, 11:13 PM

Can I see a picture of this Irma person?

*Revan* · 03-27-2008, 11:19 PM

you really owe it to yourself to see some turtle media.

here is sweetie pie Irma in all her glory

TheUltimateShredhead · 03-28-2008, 12:57 AM

i would concider irma neither particulary cute or ugly! in my eyes shes pretty average looking, but no matter how attractive or unattractive she would be i still find her annoying and me least favorite tmnt character!

*ZariusTwo* · 03-28-2008, 01:10 AM

She didnt exactly take the hair and glasses down long enough to register as a knock-out.

Her character was ten times more interesting than April's career-aholic personality. She didnt really care WHO she slept with, that included humans, aliens, Turtles, all kinds...

Not a 'shipper by heart, but I loved the little scenes she had with Donatello, probably the only Turtle that fit her.

cowabungalives · 03-28-2008, 03:44 AM

Haha, I look just like her. Glasses and all, though my hair style is currently 'short' right now.

I always thought she'd be really cute if she changed her clothes. Isn't there an episode where she wears another dress? I can't remember

*Scandia* · 03-28-2008, 04:24 AM

Irma is not ugly or unattractive.

However, she is way too boy-crazy. I know they did it on purpose to contrast her with April the career woman. But Irma needs to find herself some hobbies and interests. That way she'll be more appealing to men.

*MrPliggins* · 03-28-2008, 06:18 AM

I think she wore a bikini in "leatherhead: terror of the swamp"? Maybe not, memory is sketchy...

*gobo* · 03-28-2008, 06:24 AM

O_O *runs off to watch the DVD*

j/k... Just had to make the joke.

Jon · 03-28-2008, 06:54 AM

For Irma's different attire--

I recall what Pliggin's says (at least for her wearing a swimsuit at some point, may have been that ep. not sure).

As for the dress cowabungalives wonders of, again not sure of the episode, but the 'Drome's Image Gallery has such a picture (in the Misc. area).

Then also have the superhero outfit from "Super Irma".

Beyond those, don't recall any other different ones from her usual clothes.

*gobo* · 03-28-2008, 07:01 AM

Does her chipette costume count?

Indeed she is. I could go on at lenght about what I think is wrong with her, but this is a PG rated forum. Needless to say, she has low standards, clearly gets in the sack, then regrets it the next day. Check out her reaction to Alfredo in "Attack of the Killer Pizzas." And let's not forget the episode where a bunch of sailors on their furlough start hooting and hollering at her.

At this point, I just want April to turn to her and say, "Uh... Irma? Maybe you'd actually have a relationship if you didn't want to nail the first thing that came along."

Adding to that her Robosexuality and beastial relationship with Donatello, she's freakin' effed up.

*Mr._Mutant_Man* · 03-28-2008, 09:00 AM

I guess putting aside how odd it is to talk about how cute or not cute cartoon characters are: not really. Maybe she just seems too annoying.

While we're on the subject though, as far as April goes, I thought the Archie April design was better than the cartoon April design in some ways. Like how she finally got an outfit other than that yellow jumpsuit.

Yeah, infact Archie April had a wide variety of outfits.
