Who gets into trouble the most?

Who gets reprimanded by Splinter the most- Raphael or Michelangelo?

Does it vary per universe?

Which one gets on Splinter's nerves the most? I know none of the Turtles deliberately break the law or do truly malicious things. But which of those two gets into the most mischief and thus gets Splinter angry the most?

This is literally comparing apples and oranges.

After voting, I realized that this shouldn't really be a poll because polls are about opinion, and the number of times that they get in trouble can be documented, so opinion doesn't really play a part. I say that it is like comparing apples and oranges because usually they get in trouble for different things. If I say, for example, that the moon has a weaker gravitational pull than the earth, that's not my opinion.

I can't really recall a time OT Raph got rebuked by Splinter. OT Michelangelo, however, got an entire episode being punished by Splinter (Cowabunga, Shredhead).

Raphael, He's always running off like an idiot and getting himself into trouble.

Why Leonardo isn't on the list?

*Scandia* · 12-02-2009, 06:53 PM

Because Leo hardly ever gets into trouble. Being traumatized on season 4 of the NT is one of the few true circumstances. Another minor one is when he did not leave a note in Leonardo is Missing back in the OT- but that is pretty much negligible.

And Donatello, as I mentioned in another thread, seems to fly under the radar most of the time. Unlike Leo the golden apple or Mikey and Raph who are always getting reprimanded, Donnie does not hear his name said all that much by the head honcho.

Raph gets it way more, in any incarnation not including the OT.
Mikey in the Comics at least is the most laid back other than Donnie.

Now for my own breakdown:

Mirage- too much of a jumbled mess for me to even try. This is the "four Raphs" universe, if anything.

OT- honestly, I think Mikey got reprimanded the most. While this is the "four Mikeys" universe, Mikey was the biggest goofball of the bunch by far. I can see Raph getting reprimanded for making one too many sarcastic remarks. And he is still the likeliest of the bunch to let his fists do the talking. But I still think Mikey wins in this one.

Archie- the Turtles went on a lot of adventures and we really did not see them getting into trouble. But Raph threw more punches, so perhaps Raph wins.

Movie- Raph, hands down.

NT- Mikey, BUT Raph is not too far behind to be honest. Mikey is more annoying, but Raph is more of a belligerent hothead.

Splinter Jr. and He Who Flies Under The Radar truly hardly ever make trouble. I can only think of the two major occassions I mentioned earlier- and both involved being ill (mentally and physically) and not results of their being mischievous or quarrelsome.

Other than the OT, definitely Raph in all aspects.

I found the "ten flips" very amusing whenever Splinter punishes the Turtles in Movie II. He should do that more often.

I've never looked at any of the TMNT as "troublemakers" in the comics. There's not that kind of schdict.

Mikey in the OT. He's always eating the pizza.
