Does anyone know how the TMNT got converted into anime? I didn't even know that our favorite green heroes had taken a trip to Japan! I would've never believed it if I hadn't seen the episode with my own two eyes.

Ya, the anime was pretty cool. Shredder, Rocksteady, and Bebop kept making me laugh whenever they got into a sticky situation. Good stuff! I just wish I knew the origins of the TMNT anime, and why there seems to have been only a few episodes ever made.

I have known for a long enough time that the turtles were in anime. Mikey you should of ask me about them, so I could of told you. Too late.

Look at Krang on episode Enter the Shredder. He looks japanimated.

Enter the Shredder also has the first appearances of Bebop and Rocksteady as animals.

I downloaded return of the technodrome today, it's been many years since I have seen it. It was good to bring back the memories, but why was Krang a reddish color?

That's because the episodes in that season WERE japanimated

Yeah. I wish they would have used the samen animators in the other seasons too.

It'd have looked so great...sigh :oops:

Atleast thre would have been fight scenes.
Jephael
11-23-2002, 05:34 AM
There were always fight scenes, but I understand what you're referring to in the sense that they wouldn't have used pizzas as weopens.
Karpo_007
11-23-2002, 05:41 AM
Yeah, and even when they used weapons, it was animated poorly.
Nickokapo
11-24-2002, 05:27 PM
I agree...japanese animation would have improved the fights...even the pizza fights :P the fights in season 1 by example were animated very well...
I'm wondering why they choosed to make it american animated instead of japanese animated...i thought about it being too expensive but that doesn't makes any sense, the toon was such a success that those guys had money coming outta their ears :roll: i guess they just wanted it to be an american cartoon...

The only thing that ever ticked me off was how they stopped acknowledging that the TMNT live in New York City. It was just ludicrous of them to do that since it's where they live in the movies and comics anyways.
Nickokapo
11-24-2002, 05:38 PM
Yeah that always puzzled me why they didnt admited the turtles lived in new york, since they did in the movie..

Yeah after the first season it was always refered as "City". Never New York.

Actually, the World Trade Centers were featured in the second and third season, not to mention that Shredder used the phrase "Big Apple" in the first ep of 1988.

i didnt know that
Nickokapo
12-04-2002, 10:03 PM
Untill i readed it some months ago i had no idea they were japanimated either :D
If you compare the season 1 eps' animation to any other eps you can see the difference :D
I really liked season 1's animation...and how they drawed the noses :P but there were some parts that were kind of...strange, like when mike is in the van , im not sure in what episode, but his face looks funny :lol: but i liked that too.
I really liked april since she looked very anime-ish :D tho you can tell it was drawn in the 80s :roll: still it's pretty well drawn!And splinter too! :evilgrin:

At first i hated the tmnt anime, but with the time it kinda grew on me...i specially liked those armors rocksteady, bebop and the turtles used...and the one shredder used rocks too :evilgrin:
