Official Ep Discussion: S3 Ep21: "Attack of the MegaShredder!"
 

Okay, so everyone is still reeling from last week's revelation that they HAD to go back into time to save Yoshi in order for their lives to happen as they did. Essentially vilifying Oroku Saki (or Hamato Saki until he found out the truth?) to the point that Shen rejects him and he starts his "screw the world" campaign in bringing back the Foot Clan. There was so much off-screen head-canon I could go into, I could turn last week's episode into a two hour special...

So after Renet conveniently drops them back off in present time (or so we think?), and somehow the turtles find out that Karai's been captured by Shredder, and he's using brainworms on her. Who knew that Shredder had connections with Botany Bay and the Planet Mongo? (some of you are probably too young to know those references... jeez I'm getting old...)

So, I'm sure we'll have the usual formula: Turtles go in, Shredder defeats and/or captures all but Leo, Leo goes to Splinter, Splinter says 'go save them yourself, you were in charge stupid', Leo goes back and magically defeats Shredder by himself when the four of them together were useless.

With Karai, it depends on the brain worms - if she's still got it when he goes in to save everyone, maybe she'll attack him. Maybe she'll flee. Maybe Leo's magic healing hands will get rid of the brainworm, and he'll cure her so that they can use their super-ninja-bobsie-twin powers to defeat the giant lump of shredder (clone?) flesh.

I'm skeptical that this episode will be anything beyond a space holder while other items are developing. Maybe it's just a test run of soem new toys for the figures line? Who knows...

We've got just a couple days to go, so hang in there and

STAY TUNED!!

And here we go!

OMG!!!!!!!!!!!! THAT IS MESSED UP, WTF!!!!!!!! :o

What did i miss pre credits

Did RockSteady just gore Raph up the butt?

So Mega Shredder is just the three Shredder clones mutated into one.

Somehow that should've been easy to guess in retrospect.

Is it me or did the score pay homage to the Godzilla theme when Super Shredder emerged from the sewer?

I knew it was Mikey that sneaked up on Leo and I knew that Mega Shredder was the mutant Shredder Clones. I totally called it. :D

^This

Called it on Mikey too. :) Now, Godzilla like proportion battle anyone?

We interrupt this episode to bring you Attack on Titan.

They brought back the turtle mech....yay

OMG!!!!!! That was an awesome episode :D I did not expect to see the turtle mech in this.

This was cool. I liked Leonardo going all Attack on Titan on thing.

i liked it. the only thing that even pissed me off was the sudden commercial interruptions.

Yeah, I think it did, Sounded kind of familiar.

Awesome episode!

I thought it was a good episode, The whole Turtle Mech vs the Mega Shredder was kind of like a homage to Pacific Rim, The whole Giant Robot vs Kaiju thing.

I thought I just watched an Ultraman episode :tlol:

Actually I do miss watching Ultraman episodes :trazz:

so kind of... weird..this episode
Raph leg is injured :tsad:
and I did not notice the Mega Shredder
Is it double mutanted from three mutant shredder only?
