Now I know why they made April a teenager in this show - Page 2

*CyberCubed* · 06-25-2012, 11:14 PM

I also wonder if April might age gradually throughout each season. Like in Season 2 she would be 17....then we could eventually see her go off to College?

Might be interesting.

Like I said, couldn't tell how he meant it. I don't actually see the words 'that crowd' in his post, so it read to me like it could go either way.

And it's not a persecution complex thing. I've been off and on these forums long enough to see the 'oh gawds anime/anime fans' stigma that some here have, as if the US comic fandom doesn't have it's own crazies.

2012 April = Cat Valentine from "VicTORIous".

Oh, and Karai will probably be kinda like Jade West.

It would be interesting if the characters got older and evolved... But it's highly unlikely. She'll probably be the same for the entire run of the cartoon.

That would be awesome and I hope it happens.

Sorry, I'm more of an iCarly fan, so I got no idea who this Cat Valentine chick is.

You don't have to know who she is, all it takes is an image search and you'll quickly see what I mean.

At any rate, I wish the writers had just created an entirely new character, rather than clumsily co-opt a previously established one. (I'm thinking along the lines of Hit-Girl in "Kick-Ass".)

P.S. "VicTORIous" is only, like, the greatest show ever!

Oh, my fault! They hardly changed the character at all, actually. There's no real difference between a 25-year-old news reporter (or, if you prefer, tech assistant) and a 16-year-old high schooler (who looks 12). I mean, the hair color's the same. And that's all that really matters, right?

What was I thinking?!

*CyberCubed* · 06-30-2012, 03:11 PM

I just hope we see nothing of April in school or any friends or classmates.

I don't mind her being a teenager, but I can agree with this. Not just the school or classmates, but focusing on her at all, no matter who she is. I wanna watch Ninja Turtles for Ninja Turtles.

*CyberCubed* · 07-01-2012, 09:35 AM

Well I assume we'll see April's parents, (I imagine it'll be hard NOT to show them, she's obviously going to live with them), but I hope we see little to nothing of her school life.

I think I recall one of the early summaries saying the Turtles rescue April's parents from The Kraang or something from being mutated.

*gobo* · 07-01-2012, 09:42 AM

I'm pretty sure it said April was the one rescued when her family was abducted for mutation.

cryan · 07-01-2012, 10:55 AM

Well maybe have her in cass then the her phone goes off in the middle of class and she has to excuse herself but yeah,keep the school setting to a minimum.

Imagine the scenarios they could do though with that angle, or pull filler plots from.

, and the New April seems suitable for a 15-16 year old. You were teenagers at one time, don't tell me you weren't looking when you were at that age

.That's all I'm gonna say

lol somehow i knew this thread would have boob talk

*zkarlette* · 07-05-2012, 01:44 PM

Well, It had "April" on the title... And that's pretty much all you need.
