Every character in this show is basically dead inside, no personalities or defining character traits anymore, and they were all killed off at the beginning of Within the Woods. I'm surprised that Nickelodeon let the writers kill off so many characters and keep them dead. That's bold.
Joking aside, though, come on, guys. It's Splinter. It's about as obvious as Emma Stone in Amazing Spider-Man 2 (they both even have their big dumb speech that basically screams out, "guess what, audience! I'm gonna die soon!"). At this point, I highly doubt this show would do something as smart as fake you out, making the audience think for weeks that it's Splinter that's going to be killed off, and then all of a sudden do something crazy different like an arc with the Turtles facing their flaws and how to turn them into their advantages (and not just touching on it for like 2 minutes like in Vision Quest). But that's hopeful dreaming. A smart show would do that. This isn't a smart show. Not anymore. It's going to be Splinter. They're gonna kill him off a second time (third if you count The Invasion), and whether they bring him back or no, it's going to be tired, pointless, and just all around stupid. And more ammo for me to prove further that this show is a far cry from what it had the potential to be.

I would either want Karai or Splinter to die. Both for good. Mostly Karai, Splinter already did and he would be affected the most anyways if Karai died

Splinter would be affected if anyone from the good side dies. Karai or any of the Turtles or April. Maybe not so much Casey...aside from the fact he's an innocent bystander who is involved with their war against the Foot Clan.
And there is that moment in the preview where we hear Donnie scream out the word 'Sensei' in what sounds like anguish. |

Casey isn't really a bystander or really that innocent.

He is a person that doesn't need to be involved in their fight against the Shredder. But is because he chooses to be.

I say other. And if by other, I mean... Shredder and the Foot Clan.

It's just a title, but if anyone dies it's Shredder or maybe the turtles and Splinter beat him up so much everyone thinks he's dead but he somehow manages to escape.

Other than Shredder, Tiger Claw would make a lot more sense than Karai.
I've said all this before and I'll say it all again: She and he have been in the same boat with regards to uneasy loyalties towards the Shredder (TC's feelings towards Shredder in the beginning of "Return to New York" were very similar to Karai's in "Enemy of My Enemy"), which means that one of two things would happen for Tiger Claw: either follow the same path as her, or be a foil to her character. He's had other moments of unease towards Shredder such as the beginning of "The Invasion I" and brief moments in "Vengeance is Mine" and "The Invasion II" as well as his outburst at the end of "Annihilation: Earth II". I, personally, was shocked that he (or Brandon Auman) didn't remember what Shredder said at the beginning of "The Invasion I" and applied it to his thought process in "Earth's Last Stand" (Auman did write those two episodes as well as both parts of AE). Not to mention that, after returning to Earth, TC has had all the complexity and character of a piece of wood--something I'm hoping the episodes that feature his backstory and the next number of episodes going forward as well will rectify. Either he will make the choice, like Karai, to fight with our protagonists down the stretch; or he's going to be a foil with regards to her (probably go down with his master): same situations, different choices, different fates. That's what surely awaits him (and perhaps Karai) as we head down the final stretch of this season and next. Last edited by TMNTInsighter; 10-31-2016 at 09:41 AM. |

A requiem is a form of rememberance, honouring the lost. So if someone dies it will be in the episode before, probably. And since I don't see anyone needing to honour Shredder if he dies, it's most likely a heroe's death.
(My personal thinking is that it will be a final showdown between Splinter and Shredder that neither survives.) I'm actually surprised that no-one has brought up the episode title which follows it. "Owari" is Japanese for "the end". If Splinter is killed episodes before that, what significance would there be to using the Japanese?

It almost sounds like this season is the last. Requiem sounds like an episode of reflection of what and who was lost, the things they've been through together, and hints at an important heroic death. If the death is Splinter (and Shredder) then the series loses it's primary driving conflict. Owari (the end) sounds like it should tie up loose ends.
could be, though, that Shredder kills Splinter, Requiem has the Turtles dealing with that (perhaps going into intense training, remembering all they were taught, and still giving Splinter a healthy dose of screen time), and Owari has them going in and putting Shredder down for good. That would leave the possibility open for further adventures, but would still have lost a very important element, imo.

But isn't KMR still voicing next season. He doesn't have to be voicing the Shredder, but that is still his primary role on the show.
Everything is going to be rather intense with Shredder becoming a mutant. April becoming a Dark Phoenix character certain characters would be rather messed up. The Dark April conflict I don't see getting cleared up in one episode. Sometime this season, maybe. But with the SS conflict I would not be surprised if Dark April was continued into next season. While Splinter is being advertised as being killed off. There is still the possibility that one of the Turtles could get seriously hurt. The turtles escape but lose there childhood home for good. Requiem could be the Turtles learning there wounded brother's injuries are so serious that Splinter tells them they are going to need to say their goodbyes. This leads us into a Tales of... plot resulting in the wounded turtle finding the strength to recover from his injuries. Then owsri could be the Turtles acknowledging their childhood has ended as moving or losing ones childhood home is a metiphore for growing up. And any conflict they face from here one they must face it as adults. |
