Looks like Foot Recruit is a Hockey fan.

So yeah good batch of episodes though I do have problems with some of them

Sidekick Ahoy- Its kinda a standard episode of "characters fight over something" so the 1st half was kinda meh second half however improved a lot and I love Redfox as a character. Also I felt as if there was a huge missed opportunity for RedFox to be an actually alien, I know this show is more mystic but I was hoping for at least some Extra terrestrial stuff.

The Hidden City Job- This episode has Hueso and Big Mom, what more could you ask for and its kinda funny how despite the fact the former has been in single digit episodes he is still more of a character than most of the 12 supporting characters. The highlight of the episode goes to the skin and bones fusion I had no idea what was going to happen but I was laughing like a maniac.

Always Be Brownies- There is something about an April/Splinter interaction that is always an extra step of heartwarming and this is no different. It was kinda heartwarming to see Splinter give April and Recruit the pep talk even if the latter kidnapped him. As always the show delivers on a lot of choice fight scenes you wouldn't think April fighting a bunch of girl scouts would lead to an awesome fight but here we are. Also like I said previously I noticed that the Recruit is a Hockey fan, maybe our Casey Jones was with us the whole time.

Mystery Meat- The whole "no magic or else people will notice" rule bothered me because Draxum continues to show his vines episode in his last appearance and in this one. Like what difference does it make if the students know but not the superintendent that kinda irked not going to lie but still pretty good episode. Draxum being a cafeteria worker is still hilarious to me and him being passionate about his new job and happy with it is extra funny. I really enjoy the chemistry between him and April the latters down to earth nature the former larger than life personality is just comedy gold.

Red Fox is best girl.

Anyway, about Draxum working in the kitchen, does he pretend to be human or do people just not bat an eye at the reddish purple skinned goatman?

I so knew that Senor Hueso and his brother would combine into one being eventually. Though back when we'd first seen his brother I had thought it should have been that they were two halves of one person who needed to be helped to pull himself back together permanently...

Red Fox is a cool character, it's too bad it's probably doubtful she'll barely be seen again, if ever. The increased amount of female characters remains the one kudos I can genuinely give this show.

It's kind a sad that the only real fight and with a character that was shown to be kind of capable... was with April. That, the crazy girl showing up, and the oddity of the Foot Clan-like group of little girls was kind of amusing and prob the best ep of the four. Just a shame that the Turtles seem pretty useless in those they appear in.

Umm the turtles helped Red Fox reunite with Jupiter Jim, Leo helped Hueso reunite with his brother and Mikey helped Draxum get the mutated sloppy joe. Just because the turtles didn't fight doesn't mean they were useless.
