Classic toon Donatello

[Sage Ninja]

You know we have many discuassions on which turtle gets the most spot light or which is the best fighter in most TMNT mediums, and I've noticed that Donatello in most universes seem to come up short as being the turtle that most fans think gets the least amount of attention and is the weakest fighter (persoanlly I don't agree with that), but most fans have made points to back their arguments up to support this.

Well I admit that Donatello seems be the most "obscure" turtle of the four, but since the dvds for the classic cartoon have been coming out and I have been re-visting my favorite cartoon. i've been watching Donatello and seriously he's not that obscure at all! In fact he was given plenty of spot light in the orginal series and actually had quite a bit of depth which made him stand out. He had allot of stand alone episodes and was given plenty of spot light. Actually i think out of all them Raphael got the least amount of stand alone epsides . And even though in most mediums he has the reputation of being a poor fighter I don't think that is the case in the orgianal series. He was actaully quit compentent and skilled from what I could see (when the turtles still fought seriuously).

So lets talk about classic toon Doantello's fighting prowess, i think that after Leonardo he was the second best fighter in the group.
