Do you think we'll get a Raphael/Mona Lisa/Ninjara Triangle? - Page 2

I'd like to see Ninjara but not sure I'm up for more romance. Donatello and Casey fighting over April and Leonardo`s crush on Karai for a while was more than enough. Let's focus on the whole "alien race and ninja clan trying to destroy everything, better stop them," plot.

I really don't like love triangles, regardless of who makes up the sides.
Now...triads, that I could get behind.

No more triangles, please. Saki/Yoshi's falling out is the result of one gone wrong and we already one turtle in one.

Kinda annoyed at the thought that the reasoning either of them should be added is just to fight over/ship up with Raph. I would love a female lead added that ISN'T a love interest to get more focus. Or at the very least, not play it up that much like with Leo and Kairi.

That's why I want to see Ninjara so bad. Shes a capable female character who can seriously kick ass, though with April training to be a ninja, I don't see them bringing something like that in.

I don't want another love triangle though

Ones bad enough in my opinion, it makes the three act out of character too

I'm glad they nixed the original idea, it was supposed to be Raph falling for April

*BabyTurtles* · 08-21-2014, 04:28 PM

uh..no thank you.....no more love triangles.

I wouldn't mind seeing Alopex though (not as a love interest)

He's always the stereotypical "Angry One" and until Ninjara, nobody ever bothered to call him out on his sh*t. I liked that, I'unno.

If the Nick show had a female character like that revealing more of the Turtles' personalities, then I would be more accepting of the shipping, but if the Donnie/April/Casey love triangle is an example of what to expect, it seems the romance is used for the cutesy and humorous angles rather than anything substantial (so far at this moment within the series). Plus, again... this is considered mostly a "boys" cartoon, so I highly doubt any shipping is going to go into any substantial romantic depth here to avoid losing its targeted demographic.

I honestly won't be surprised if Mona Lisa and/or Ninjara does show up, because so much of the anticipation and excitement of the Nick series has been on nostalgia characters being introduced into the show.

If they introduced Ninjara into this series, my life would be complete. Just sayin'.

*THGhost* · 08-22-2014, 06:54 AM

I'd happily welcome Mona Lisa into the series, but not Ninjara. It just wouldn't feel right. Besides, one love triangle is enough.

*Warhorse* · 08-22-2014, 04:49 PM

I just think it would be funny. Raph keeps giving Donny a hard time about April, it would just be funny karma to have Raph at odds with the two main chicks that are synonymous with his character in past incarnations.

Ryanator008 · 08-22-2014, 05:58 PM

lolnoep. I'd be really surprised if just Mona Lisa to show up. For Mona Lisa and Ninjara to show up in more that one episode? Forget about it.

It's not what you guys want, it's that you think we are going to see this. Like it or not, but the Donny/April/Casey thing is pretty big for the show.

I know it's big, but I think it has been dragging on a bit too long. Having a 'triangle' does nothing for me if all it ever ends up being is Casey/April, which is nowadays pretty stale and predictable. They might as well have had her like him right from the start, as we wouldn't have to see Donnie get his hopes up and then get them dashed later on. All it would say is, "You're just a mutant, did you think you'd ever get to be happy?'

Another triangle would just have this same useless drama, only with different people this time.

Midnight Mutant · 08-25-2014, 06:35 PM

Do I think we'll get a triangle? No. Do I think one of those two characters will show up or have a nod or homage to them like they did to Venus? Yup.

I've expressed this before, I'm all on board for Mona Lisa to come into the show and maybe flirt with Raph (Kind of like how Karai messed with/flirted with Leo), but I don't know if I'd want there to a full on relationship or for Raph to be a drooling love sick puppy.

I would like to see how he reacts to a girl tho, seeing as how he gives Donnie and Leo mad **** for it.

Back on point, I don't think there will be another love triangle because at that point it would be more of a RomCom/Dram.

I would love to see Mona Lisa Or Ninjara... They wouldn't Have to be love interests.... Although I'd like that too.

I'd like to see a character fall in love with Raph, but Raph be his jerky self! Never seen a bad boyfriend angle.

But eventually he could be only semi tamed...

Don't worry haters... I already know it ain't happening
