Who is your least favorite Ninja Turtle and why? VOTE
 

We all love the ninja turtles but if you had to choose your least favorite of the 4, who would you choose and why?

I picked Michaelangelo, I just feel he is the weekest of the 4 in fighting and I prefer the more serious turtles in the other 3. Still like Mikey I just pick him as my last favorite which is actually wierd because he was my favorite when I was a young kid.

I went with Leo. I love Leo to little pieces, but I don't connect to him as much as the other turtles.

Don brings out the geek in me. The interaction between Mike and Raph reminds of how my sister interacts with her husband. My sister is often anger and sarcastic (Raph) while her husband is often goofy and childish (Mikey) and most conversations with her husband involves her insulting/teasing/abusing him (alas like Raph and Mikey). It's a really strange dynamic. :lol:

Point is, While the rest of the turtles remind me of family or a personal connection, Leo stands out on his own. He's still awesome though.

Can't vote, each different universe has their own worst turtle.

Mirage - Raph (he's a cool character, just my least favorite here)
OT - Leo (Cam Clarke's a great VA, but OT Leo just stated the obvious and was a lame-o)
90's Films - Don (Corey. Feldman.)
2k3 and 07 Film - Mike (We get it... he's the "funny" turtle.)

I went with Leo , I still like him but hes at the bottom of my my list from the 4 turtles.

Mikey. At first I really like Leo because of his swords, but as time goes by, it seems like Mikey is the most fun character. I wouldn't like to be such a tight ass like Leo all the time.


edit: Doh! This is LEAST favorite turtle poll. My least fave is Raph. :tconfuse:

Michelangelo is my least favorite, especially in 2k3 and the 2k7 movie. But I like them all, really.

I kind of agree with you.

Voted Leo, but after much thought that has shifted. In my childhood Leo's character was to dry and just the typical leader. But then came the new series, and Mikey climbed up into that role, because he was just annoying.

Raphael. He's a whiny prick that always gets himself and others into trouble.


Leonardo is a hardass but he atleast does his job when he has to do it.

Good to see him get an honorable mention for once, haha.

Leonardo, for me. Always has been my favorite & always will be.

This is least favorite.

So who's your least favorite? Are people not getting the thread?

Edited my post. :/


So far no one is hating on Donnie.

Depends on universe like most of the answers here.

90's Films - Don
2k3 and 07 Film - Mike

for the most part.

I have never liked Leonardo in the 2k3
Leo was bland in OT
The comics, I kind of equally liked all the turtles
The movies, they all had aspects I liked about them

I have to go with don in an overall aspect.
The main reasons are that he just doesn't appeal to me as a character. The only time I thought he wasn't the worst was in the 1st movie. He and Mikey were awesom duo. But I think he didn't fit in as well in the other universes

After seeing the OT and 07 film, MIKEY. He's the most annoying turtle,he's just plain stupid.

My least favorite is Leonardo i think he is just kinda bland and boring.

I'll have to go with Leo, he just has a boring personality. The sorta guy you just forget he's there.

Raph he always had a hard time takin' ordas' for basiclly no reason other than he was angry about everything

over all I gotta go with Raphael. Though it varies from medium to medium. In the Old toon I enjoyed his sarcastice wit and he really brought something to the table show wise, so I can't say I actually disliked him in the old toon. He was just not my favorite. (Though I didn't like how he constantly ripped on Michelanbgelo in the OT)

But I really not into the tough ass angsty versions of him mostly because that personality type gets on my nerves and I'm equally annoyed on how glorified that personality type is in the media. Basically any version of Raph that doesn't steal the spot light with with angsty crap to the point where the other turtles fall into the back ground I like. Plus some of his fans can get a little too in your face over the littlest slight over him. Which doesn't help.

However as far as the 2k3 toon goes, Mike was easily my least favorite. He's traditionally my favorite turtle and I'm just disapointed on how he was written in that show. Wasn't too thrilled with his personality in the CGI movie either.

Oh, sh*t. I'm just so used to seeing the same "who's your favorite turtle?" thread pop up every few weeks that I assumed this was the same case without even reading the title fully.

In that case, I retract my vote. Mikey is my least favorite. As far as the mirage comics go, I have no qualms with the guy. He's mild mannered, likes to chill with his cat, do some writing & play with shadow. Its his bastardized personality in the 2003 toon & 4th movie that I don't care for. I don't mind the OT version at all but 2k3/TMNT... UGH.

I really get sick of Raph sometimes, too. He's just so over the top. I know there are plenty of people like that in real life but most of the time they just take it too far.

Say what you will, but I didn't vote any because I honestly like all the Turtles. Sure, I prefer certain incarnations over others, but there's not really one I dislike enough to say "Okay, I'm not fond of X because of Y."

:/

LOL, Ironic because you just got on me for not reading the documentary thread before posting. ;)

I chose Leonardo because early on in the 80s series, he wasn't funny--he stuck to his duty of being the leader. It wasn't until a few episodes that he finally got humorous and told some jokes.

Well, there is a difference between dyslexia and putting forth no effort to find the answer to a question before posting it.

LOL, yeah your right :)

Im 100 % agree with you ... Same here! : :tcool:

Dyslexia sucks doesn't ! Lol.
Why is everyone hating on Leo? I am also shock by all the Mikey haters. I would figure Don would be least favorite.

and why is that? Donatello kicks ass. He's an unassuming dude who keeps to him self and doesn't bother anyone and can make crap out of anything. Instant Win.

I am surprised by all the Leonardo hate though. Oh well.

I'm kinda surprise by the Leo and Mikey hate too. I thought I was alone with Leo (though I still love him for other reasons). I think basically everyone's explanation for the dislike of one turtle is "too much". I think depending on the medium and series, at least one or two of the turtles' personalities were on overload.

Leo can sometimes be written to be too much of straight arrow and end up either boring or hard to connect with.

Mikey can be written to be too much of clown and a doofus to the point that it gets annoying.

Raph can be written to be way to anger if not a good amount of psycho.

And Don...well...

I think the reason why there isn't as much dislike for Don is because there are few mediums in which he is over the top. Don's personality is kinda hard to go overboard with because part of his personality is chilling out in the background till he is needed (sorta shyish) and being the reasonable one.

I voted for Raph. Kind of a dick.

I would say for me its Raphael. He just annoys me with his attitude.

I like them all, but I don't like that Raphael is a jerk in most TMNT universes, so I chose him as least favorite for that reason.
Though I do love him in the classic 80s series. One of the few versions of Raph where he's actually cute and charming and not mean. :)

For me I'd have to say Leonardo. Mikey's the humor guy, and I always love the humor guy (even though they take it way too far...), Donnie has his own brand of humor that's pretty good, and Raph, while angry, is just too bad-A for me not to like.

So yeah, Leo, if for no other reason than ruling the others out.

I had to hate on Leo too because I've always found him to be the least three dimensional. He's too perfect. :lol:

Yeah, I'm gonna hafta go with Leo. He just comes off as a self-righteous prick with no real personality to me. *shrugs*

My least favorite Turtle is Raphael. And that goes for every single universe- albeit he is somewhat more tolerable in the OT and Archie.

I dislike sarcasm in general. It has its time and place. A lot of the time I do not even get it. It has an element of contempt. Raphael overdoes the sarcasm way too much.

And why is he so angry? His other 3 brothers do not seem to be anywhere near as angry. While Splinter did not treat all 4 of them exactly the same, I am pretty sure he treated all of them fairly. It's not like Splinter picks on Raphael- he reprimands Michelangelo just as much, if not more in some of the universes.

Raphael thinks he is such a badass- when the truth is he has a lot of fears. Raphael tries to boss others around futilely. Raphael is very impulsive- while at the same time he has a major stick up his rectal cavity. He is out to pop the bubbles of the other 3 Turtles- without offering better alternatives.

Overall, I dislike Raphael because he is so pessimistic. I do not deal well with negative people- or Turtles.
