Emotional scenes that made you sad

evan2000 · 08-09-2015, 11:51 AM

Throughout the series there have been several emotional scenes inserted in certain episodes, such as:

I, Monster when Master Splinter was mind controlled to fight his sons
Showdown (season 1 finale) when Raph called out Leonardo name thinking he was going to sarifice himself
The Mutation Situation when Kirby shielded April from the falling mutagen only to have himself mutated
Mutagen Man Unleashed when Mutagen Man drank the chemical and became frozen
Slash and Destroy when Raph witnessed his brothers being beaten up by Slash
Metalhead Rewired when Metalhead sarificed himself to allow the rest to escape
The Manhattan Project when Master Splinter was poisoned and forced to fight Shredder in front of Leo
The Wrath of Tiger Claw when Karai realized her true identity
Vengeance is Mine - pretty much the entire episode, most notably Karai's mutation
The Invasion - again pretty much the entire episode but most notably Leo's beatdown
Within the Woods - Raph's care for Leo
Vision Quest when Splinter's spirit appeared over the campfire
Return To New York when the turtles found feral Splinter who couldn't recognize anyone
The Pig and the Rhino when Karai decided to say goodbye
Tale of the Yokai when Tang Shen sacrificed herself to defend Yoshi

Which of those made you really sad (choose your top 5 if you are polling)?

For me, Vengeance is Mine is the only episode that made me shed tears so far, but I also felt Showdown, Metalhead Rewired, The Invasion and Tale of the Yokai really touching

I can't really say any drama in this show is effective enough was enough to make me feel sad. Some moments, like when Karai mutated, was more disappointing/annoying than sad.

The only 2 episodes that made me cry are

The Invasion and Tale of the Yokai.

All the other episodes gave me strong feels

The moment that got me closest to tearing up is when Splinter woke up outside the burning dojo. So Tale of the Yokai it is!

Tale of the Yokai hasn't screened here yet so it may top this, but so far the only time I shed a tear was when Shredder defeated Splinter and Raph lost his sh!t and Mikey grabbed him and hugged him. Vicky has it in her signature. That was a really strong moment.

The only episodes that have had me in tears are Metalhead Rewired, Vengeance is Mine and The Invasion. The others have had me feeling saddened inside, but those are the only two that I was properly in tears for.

Spoiler:

*TurtleTitan97* · 08-09-2015, 03:58 PM

Definitely "Tales of the Yokai"

Redworld96 · 08-09-2015, 05:25 PM

I choose Metalhead Rewired. That episode was heartbreaking for me.

I hope one day Donnie will bring him back.

*Papenbrook* · 08-09-2015, 06:34 PM

I know it's not on the list, but "The Pulverizer Returns!" made me upset.

When Littlefoot's mom died.

...This show has some emotional moments, but nothing that's actually going to make me tear up.

This, more or less.

TMNT in general has gotten tears out of me (namely the first film & a Mirage book or two) but this series has yet to really work the pump, at least for me. I came very close with Tales Of The Yokai, & Metalhead Re-wired got to me a bit, but I can't recall getting truly wispy from it, although it's possible that I'm forgetting something. There's plenty of time for it, yet.

watching Karai fall into mutagen, with Leo Splinter and Shredder watching.

Im a huge Karai fan, and think the not only is she the most interesting and enjoyable character, but that her plot has been the most dynamic and darkest, and therefore, the most emotional. just my opinion though

Well the thread is just top 5 saddest episodes so that doesn't mean you had to cry while watching it. I've never cried watching TMNT and I rarely cry watching or reading anything. A movie in which an animal like a dog dies usually causes me to cry though. I could also feel tears brimming when watching Bridge to Terabithia as well. Certain episodes make me feel sad but they don't make me cry.
