I actually really like that this show is taking its time! It feels way more grounded, and when a big event happens, well it feels all that more special.
They keep back Splinter and Shredder, teasing us a bit with their fighting skills, and it feels so much more satisfactory when they finally fights.
Events seems more special when they finally happened.
I actually feel a bit like it became a down-right problem in the 2k3 show that it went to big to fast. It had HUGE events within the first part of the first season.
"Shredder Strikes." just felt way more like a first season finaly then... episode ten.
I can come up with no other show paced this way, with so many big events on so little time, and well.. it makes the events loose their importance, I feel like any-way.
In this show, it felt like such a huge deal when Shredder finally faced the turtles one o one.
It also felt like a huge deal in I'monster when we saw Splinter in action, and it feels like a huge deal that the turtles are going to figure out what the Krang is up to in the next episode.
yeah, I like the pace of this show better, yeah there are less big events, yeah they stay more firmly grounded in a smaller enviroment, which is just them, but I sort of like that. it allows the characters to breath, and it makes bigger events feel more special.
And yeah I can't wait either for the big reveal.
How will Karai deal with it? how will Splinter deal with it? ... how will the turtles deal with it?
I mean, they are his adopted sons, up turns his biological daugther, that could be sort of nasty. And on the same time they all agree that they can't trust her, that wont chance just because she started out as Miwa.
I think that's a good way to put it, she started out as Miwa, she is now Karai, and her arch is probably going to be, figuring out whom she is going to be next.
