Official Episode Discussion S2 #19 "The Wrath of Tiger Claw""

Finally got around to watching it, and it's definitely the best of S2 yet.

First let's talk about Karai...she has quickly become one of my favorite characters on the show. This episode was her best role yet...she went through a lot of different emotions and showed a whole new side of herself. I agree with some others have said in this thread, in that she is becoming/is a good female role model. I can't wait to see her again and what she'll decide to do with herself. Favorite moment with her was when she realizes that Splinter is actually her real father and kinda freaks out because she set them up, thinking that Splinter was the enemy still. Karai is my second favorite character now.

So...it's turns out the storyboards were real after all, and I'm glad they were, because the scene where they literally just lock her up and leave her in there all alone is pretty dark. That scene was awesome and I can't wait to see how she'll get out of there. So if this storyboard was real, I guess the Apriltello one is, too...not sure what to think of that, really. I don't hate it but I don't love it either.

Tiger Claw was awesome, a really great villain if you ask me.

80's TMNT cameo was cool.

Mikey was actually useful in this episode! Both plans he came up with worked, and the one to lead TC to the meat locker so he wouldn't be able to follow their scent was very smart of Mikey to think of.

Speaking of...the meat locker fight scene. That was just epic and words cannot describe how cool it was.

Poor Irma...I wonder if they'll ever tell her about the turtles?

It's little touches like showing Kirby briefly and having them at Murakami's again that made this episode even more cool.

So if you couldn't have guessed, I loved this episode and will re-watch it many times. Excited for all the upcoming episodes except Plan 10...but it will be a small price to pay for two more awesome Karai/Foot oriented episodes.
