You guys think Shinigami will betray Karai
 

For me its like a 55 to 45 percent she will but maybe this show can surprise me

Nope. I'm not getting a vibe that she's out for herself at all. If anything Karai herself might fall too far down the foot path

No, if anything they'll reveal they're lesbian lovers.

ooo please no!

honestly, do you view every single best friend relationship as gay shipping?

You know even if that was the case it would still be better than any romantic relationship we have on this show

Nah. Not by her own choice at least. Personally I suspect something is going to happen that causes her to be used against Karai. Like Shini gets mind controlled and is made to hypnotize Karai and turn her bad again.

No, I think she's too loyal to Karai to betray her.

Cubed, what is it with you and lesbians?

In Cubed's defence, lesbians are awesome

She could be secretly working for shredder. He raised Karai after all and maybe he was picky about who she could be childhood friends with.

I Suppose Shinigami could be a foot spy who was raised alongside Karai in her childhood in the foot clan but later on used her relationship to get close with Karai in order to obey her master Shredder's orders and bring her back through hypnosis/manipulation.

I could see this happening too. I was just about to post something like this myself. I could see Shini being forced to go against Karai as a way of protecting her or something like that. It's like Raph kissing Antrax...before seeing it, I couldn't see him willingly doing something like that. To me, that's how I'm currently viewing Shini and am actually hoping for that kind of a twist.

Maybe? I could see it going either way, but I admit I was suspicious of her in City At War.

I'm inclined to guess no. She did seem suspicious in "City at War" (and seems to be a bit catty), but we were supposed to think of her as a new villain before revealing that she and Karai are planning to reform the Foot Clan and get rid of Shredder's operations.

"Broken Foot" did suggest that she has a materialistic streak, but it seemed to be played for laughs rather than as a warning sign. (She did have a point, too. A case could've been made that the money could've been used to fund their beat Shredder project.)

Also, in those two episodes, her fights with the Foot Clan members are a little too brutal to be faked (Tiger Claw slammed her into the roof in the first one).

For what it's worth, she's shown on the hero's side of the supporting character montage in the credits sequence. There have been exceptions to this before, but she seems to be presented as an ally character. I also wonder if they would've written in the idea of Mikey having a crush on her if it was planned that she was going to be a traitor.

This is what fans want to see, they're already drawing fanart of it:

just because theres some art out there of that doesnt mean that everyone wants to see it

In all honesty, I really hope Shini doesn't turn on Karai and/or the TMNT. It'd be too predictable anyway if it were to happen.

Hey speak for yourself.

Greg, I have no issue with the idea of them being lesbians if that is the case. My issue is how Cubed is obsessed with the idea of it in a very perverted way. Honestly, I just don't get why guys are fascinated with that stuff. I'm certainly not attracted by the idea of two guys kissing. I just don't care about it.

Men are just hardwired to think that way. Its the chemical balance in our brains that make us attracted to the unobtainable.

No thanks.

Cubed, where are you finding this stuff? It's not on any of the usual places

The deviantart profile is literally on the fanart.
