Discussion about Raphael - Page 3

*BubblyShell22* · 10-17-2014, 05:41 PM

I like how Raph is behaving in season 3 so far, and I think it's because he has to be the rock for the team until Leo gets back on his feet. Once Leo's up and around, Raph can relax and go back to doing what he always does, but I think he's stepping up to the plate nicely, and that's awesome. What he did in last week's episode with training Donnie and Mikey was nice to see, and I really want to see more of that in the future.

Raph...I want to see get depth. Not just the usual 'control the anger' subplot he always gets stuck with, but just growth as a fighter and as a general person that can open up more emotionally as a friend and family member. It's why I adored him with Mikey in the finale.

I can agree with this. Donny having a crush on April doesn't bother me, Donny being hopelessly annoying and the whole plot just about revolving around this crush does.

I agree completely. Raph is blunt and to the point, it's nice.

As for the topic, this is the first series where I'd say Raph is my favorite (tends to vary between Leo and Donnie usually). I really don't care for Donnie here. Raph, though, there's something about him that's more relatable than he was in the past. I've never been a hothead, more prone to depression so I never really got him. But I love Raph in this series. And I think most of his outbursts are totally justified.

Any thoughts from the Raph fans after this newest episode?

Buried Secrets. Take with a grain of salt since I'm not as focused him as some of you guys, but seemed like a fairly good one for him imo.

I thought Raph was amazing in this episode. He protected April(little brat) and was the last turtle standing. He shared the episode with Mikey, but he had half of it to work his magic. Am I the only one who loves the sounds his Sais make when he whips them out? They actually sound like they would IRL, or what I imagine they'd sound like.

Yes, my cousin managed to watch it tonight at her house, and she copied the show and sent it to me, so I finally got to watch it. And yes, this is the Raph we've been missing.
