First Impressions

CharmedSerenity · 08-26-2014, 04:10 AM

Alright, I finally decided to take the plunge and see what all the fuss was about for a couple of reasons (mostly because I got handed the keys to a Donnie-centric club on Devart and started adding 2012 fanworks to it).

So I checked out a few random episodes yesterday and I am now semi-hooked on this show. It'll never take the place of 2k3 (my favourite animated TMNT show) in my affections. However it's a fun watch (even if it can be a little gross sometimes - looking at you, Shellacne episode) and I don't like the opening theme.

I haven't got a favourite character yet but I will say - Mikey's heart may be in the right place but he's still an (amusing) idiot..., xD

The opening isn't very good, but... It grew on me. I'd love to hear someone make a more upbeat or enthusiastic version of it though, cause the guys singing it sounds half asleep.

*nods in agreement* To be honest, the only opening theme that's impressed me is Jounetsu no Kaze.

Anyway, watched more episodes and this still isn't as bad as I thought it would be. This is the first version where I actually liked one of the guest stars more than the main characters, and kind of getting used to this take on Donnie.

I have no problem with the theme, and I'm glad you're giving this show a chance and liking it.

Thanks, and it got to the point where I've ordered the DVDs, ^^
