Things you want to see in the Nickverse
 
I could swear this was already done, but I didn't find it anywhere. It could be updated now since so much has happened in the last several episodes. But what people, place or thing would you like to see at some point?

I would love a Battle Nexus arc, but who would win this time?

I'd like to see Traximus(this might already have been announced, but I don't read spoilers or seek out information anymore.)

I hope that we see Usagi, I love the way Leo bonded with him

I keep holding out hope that we see Leo and Don's rooms, but that's never going to happen. I think they picked the most interesting rooms for us to see, so that's not such a downer.

Raph without his mask, only because they keep teasing us with it. Off screen and fast half a second in the background flashing not going to cut it. BTW, why do they keep all of Raph's interesting moments off screen?

Karai back to herself, I'm losing hope on this one

Some may not agree with me, but I'd like a Nick version of SAINW, I'd love to see how they deal with it.

T-U-R-T-L-E POWA! 12-08-2015 06:39 PM

More than anything I want to see Usagi. I know it's probably not gonna happen because of a bunch of legal crap but man it would be so awesome to see how they treated him in this version.

Foombamaroom 12-08-2015 07:00 PM

This is more of an arc, but an actual Turtles vs. Shredder showdown. Like, not a silly 30 second fight, I mean an actual hardcore final battle between these guys.

Powder 12-08-2015 08:32 PM

Battle nexus or intergalactic wrestling (with their transportation to either being Cudley The Cowlick!) but that'd only really fit with the space arc going on now.

An adaption of Mark Martin's earlier Mirage stuff.

TurtleTitan97 12-08-2015 08:34 PM

Another time travel episode would be cool. Maybe with the gang traveling to the future and meeting older versions of themselves.

CyberCubed 12-08-2015 08:38 PM

Judging by the Season 5 episode title leaks, next season is probably going to be Japanese themed. Maybe an adaption of the Ninja Tribunal arc since that was also Season 5 of the 2k3 series.

I agree we also need some sort of tournament arc, a Battle Nexus or any tournament set in space.

matteso586 12-09-2015 01:47 PM

A loose adaptation of 2k3's Secret Origins. Mostly because I like to see how Sub-Subprime became Kraang Subprime. And how he got the scars.

When it comes to time travel, I like to see 6 year-old April. I happen to have theorized that Kirby and April had some sort of mind wipe after the real Mrs. O'Neil "disappeared".

Verminator X.
He should be the one who cut off Tiger Claw's tail.

Tarris Vaal 12-09-2015 07:46 PM

Honestly?

Some wrapping up of some of the older plot threads - a kind of clear out before any new stuff starts getting too established.

Things like;

Xever's loyalty
Tigerclaws background
Baxter's ambition
The origins of the mind worms
Shredder's plan for the mind serum
Kurtzman's lizard lady
Mutagen man
The EPF
Bishop
April's background (her mother)
and more drama based stuff like Apritello, Leo/Karai, etc

There's a lot of mildly abandoned plot threads to tidy up - even if they only got cursory mentions and brief summing up that'd at least bring some of them to closure.

Yeah, stuff like the battle nexus would be cool - but I'd like to have more of a clean slate going into it so these little threads are just left hanging.

This guy is better off appearing in IDW since Old Hob will probably turn himself into a cyborg.

Jephael 12-09-2015 09:57 PM

I'd love to see them introduce Burne Thompson as the CEO of Channel 6 and Vernon Fenwick be a talk show host. They could make his show what the Turtles watch in season 6.

If they are gonna wrap up old plot threads I wish they would find a way to bring back Metalhead. Donnie promised that he would try to fix him but hasn't been able to do it yet. Metalhead was awesome in this series and losing him was the most emotional moment in the show for me until Shredder stabbed Splinter in the back.

Tarris Vaal 12-10-2015 04:17 AM

Exactly!

Thank you I knew I missed one :)


And yes - I'd like to see Vernon and Thompson brought back at some point - hopefully they'll appear if more is made of the media characters like Grody and O'Gambe

Kingoji 12-10-2015 02:47 PM

Ninjara. And yeah, I'm aware I'm flogging a dead horse at this point.

miru 12-10-2015 05:25 PM

Ninjara - The Girl Who Took TigerClaw's Tail.

Resolve unsolved plot mysteries like Irma, strange mutagen effects, Mutagen Man, etc.

The only mystery surrounding Irma is why you nuts can't accept reality...

hohoho Cartoon isn't reality and its plot could be changed at any time, at any place, no once is there to limit their work, especially why would it be if its just a character appearance for them at that point. :P:P

They could change the plot at any point but at the moment it's not a mystery. It has been confirmed that Irma was a disguise for sub-prime and that Irma isn't coming back. They could decide to change this in the future but right now, there's no mystery. It has been resolved. There are bigger issues than some secondary character that people want back to take up some screen time. This is a fan's wishful thinking, not a mystery.

Agreed, no one has officially said that the case with sub-prime is a mystery, no one of existed characters touched that subject [mystery] either, they did think some messed up thing happened with "human friend" case and just went along with it.

Metalwolf 12-11-2015 10:53 AM

Things I want to see:

Don't Drag Out Shredder's Arc Too Long and Keep It in a Realistic Time Frame: I know they are tempted to bring in this guy and that guy (with Ciro's 'We have years worth of stories to tell!") but unless they conclude Shredder's arc first or can leave a way for a spin off for the other stories, it's going to eventually feel like it's dragging on unnaturally too long just to keep status quo (like Karai's snake arc.)

Tigerclaw Becomes Verminator X: Tigerclaw is turned into this after Shredder senses that Tigerclaw is about to bail (after seeing how bad Shredder really is.) Shredder doesn't want his best mutant 'asset' to go away or join the Turtles, so he arranges a little 'accident' to happen to him so he can claim Tigerclaw's body and rebuild him with Kraang cybernetic parts, programming him to obey, destroy, and never ever question him again.

Icebot 12-11-2015 11:32 AM

I'd like to see Serling and Cody (if April ends up with Casey that is), maybe Renet could bring the turtles to 2105.

It's pretty obvious , he wanted a disguise to get close to April so he made a teenage girl disguise .

Just be thankful Casey didnt turn out to be KSP

I think miru meant inspiration. Like in Scooby-Doo: Mystery Incorporated, the ex-Mayor Jones got the inspiration for The Freak of Crystal Cove from a dream.

Donnie did fix Metalhead, he was seen in the background at some points in his lab

Maybe Metalhead is what happens to Honeycutt later on.

Tarris Vaal 12-12-2015 07:13 PM

That would be quite cool :)

GoldMutant 12-13-2015 09:41 AM

I honestly feel the show needs to wrap up previous plot points in the show first before wanting new stuff. Plots such as:
  • Karai
  • Mutagen Man
  • Bishop and the Utrom/Kraang origins
  • The handling of the henchmutants not named Bebop and Rocksteady
  • Newtrailzer
  • The origin of the Mighty Mutanimals fleshed out
  • Visivo and Hun's importance (City at War?)
  • The escaped mutants from Metalhead Rewired for what happened to them, barring Mondo Gecko's debut.

That's the main issue with the show; while consistent with references to previous plot points, the characters I feel are ignored in development or aren't too important. Karai and Mutagen Man are prime examples, but I also feel to an extent the Mutanimals came immediately out of nowhere. There's real nothing to work with besides wacky adventures. Even though the TMNT are involved in craziness, the focal drive should be on the universe established and giving an idea on what's happening while also not prolonging until its too late.

As for new ideas to see whether it be character or adaptation, here's what I want:
  • A tournament like the Battle Nexus or Triceraton battle in the stadium
  • An adaptation of Same As It Never Was and Insane in the Membrane
  • City at War
  • Double mutate a Turtle for Good Genes
  • Alopex
  • Something to wrap up the Rat King

What about a loose adaptation of The Trouble with Augie? That could wrap of the Mrs. O'Neil plot. As for Insane in the Membrane, maybe a less gruesome version, with Stockman going crazy as a result of testing his very own retromutagen on himself. Also I think the comics fleshed out the Mutanimals' formation. That is, if that two part story was canon.

They need an Atlantis episode, that would be cool. Maybe have Merdude come on the show too!

That would be a major change, because this series has not so much continuity as 2003. I don't want Battle Nexus or Ninja Tribunal.

I want to see more of modern high-tech Japan with Shinkansen high-speed trains, robots, science and technology. (my favorite TMNT story set in Japan is the Archie one with sumo wrestler Tattoo and Japanese gangsters kidnapping his dog).

I agree with all of this...except I don't expect very much of it to come to fruition given the limitations of 3D. I feel that this show only drags things out a lot of the time to get the most use out of the 3D models, and reuse them if it fits the situation. Come to think of it, I can't recall any visual elements in this show that haven't been reused at least once (barring some of the more recent content, e.g. Splinter's human form, which we'll most assuredly see again).
