The fact that she can rival a trained ninja in a fight after a few months of training (and win, weather by "dumb luck" or not hardly matters), has two main characters crushing on her (and if Casey doesn't count as a main character than at least 1 of the main 4 willing to put everything on the line for her), acts like she don't need no man to save her even when she is CLEARLY out of her element, has sudden "psychic" powers and is the ONE THING the Kraang want rather than the turtles (who apparently seem to be the main villains in the show as the Shredder is practically nonexistent at this point), all paint her as a Mary Sue in my book. I'm not happy to call her out on it, I've always liked April and there's ways to make her stand out, useful and unique without turning her into an insufferable brat.

But you know what, I gave my positives with my negatives. It's my opinion, it's not going to be changed. I hate April in this show. That's that. Luckily it's balanced out by an awesome depiction of Casey.
