TMNT and tears

While I was reading over some of the old posts about Turtles Forever, I did notice the comments regarding the OT turtles crying. Now, without getting into whether or not it was OOC or not, I did start thinking about both the OT and the NT.

It surprised me that they actually did cry some, in both cartoons. I actually find this intriguing because I don't see this a lot in cartoons. Seems like most cartoon characters are allowed to be upset but not cry, especially if they're male characters. Hence, this topic interests me.

Of the OT, I remember Michelangelo crying in Polly Want a Pizza when his brothers tell him to get rid of the parrot. In Michelangelo Meets Mondo Gecko, Raphael cries when he thinks Michelangelo died in the trunk crash.

Of the NT, I just remember Raph crying when Leo is injured and won't wake up.

Are there any other instances that you all can recall?
