I don't like that Karai it's Miwa - Page 2

FlogginMcMurryZombiePizza · 08-22-2013, 05:00 PM

Splinter sets up the whole "I lost my daughter, Miwa" backstory in the first episode...
I still think we'll get a reveal for Season 2 finale or something

At least this Karai doesn't totally blindly follow Shredder and now she has even more reasons to really think about where her loyalties lie.

I really think that once Leo finds out about her, he's going to try and persuade her to join them and Splinter so he can have his daughter back.

Agreed. It's a really interesting storyline and should in theory lead to a tension between Splinter and Karai if and when they interact again (this should culminate spectacularly). We obviously all saw it coming but the 'twist' was one of the highlights of the season for me. It really adds depth to Karai/Miwa's character.

I don't mind it, just wish things was set up a little different for Leo / Karai, they could have just set up a rivalry between the two instead. Them flirting with each other after finding out she's his half sister is going to be creepy, while I'm sure the Leo / Karai arc has just begun due to finding out she's his daughter, things will hit the fans when the turtles find out, but yah know, why did they start it out that way? We're they confused what to with her at first?

I don't think there will be any flirting between the two anymore. That stopped right after "Enemy of My Enemy." But I do think Leo will try and get her to join them and reunite her with Splinter once he and his brothers find out the truth. Splinter can't keep it from them forever.

Yeah, I think as soon as Splinter tells them about this, they'll try to convince her who her real father is. Though I am curious how they'll go about it. She obviously shrug them off, of course (especially after Enemy of My Enemy since she's probably still holding a grudge) but I think the more interesting questions are:

A) If it's not the Turtles, what will ultimately convince her? A dream sequence? Maybe April if Splinter tells her? Having it be April seems likely since she's someone Karai would at least care to listen to since they do share a couple of similarities such as being loyal to her 'family' and losing a mother.

B) What will she do with her life? I can't see her staying with Shredder or the Foot (unless the whole 'stay in your clan or risk being alone and fend for yourself' philosophy comes in play). But I don't think she'll immediately join Splinter and the Turtles thus changing her status from villain to hero. Personally, I could maybe see her stay with neither side and form some sort of neutral party. Just show no loyalty to either side by hindering or helping them in some way as long as it's to her benefit.

I'm just hoping this whole thing leads to more development of the Karai character. I'm hoping she stays all up in arms that Shredder is her father and stays in denial about Splinter, at least for a while. This should hold at least through the entire season. I don't really look forward to a "good" Karai.

same, karai to me is a character who should be evil. i cant really see her being an ally for the turtles, atleast not right away

my thoughts on how this may play out are:
the turtles will find out she is miwa
leo will attempt to get her to leave shredder
she will deny it but begin to wonder
eventually accepts it and turn on shredder, probably towards the end of the series, maybe even finale

Please read this before getting into how Leo and Karai would be incest

So....under rare circumstances if a human touches an animal and if that same animal touches that human in return then they would not change into mutant clone twins of each other? Well that kinda ruined my fan fic idea.

Would they at least fall in the category as being with in the same species of mutant?

If they do what you're suggesting, it would be great. Here's hoping they do. I agree that she doesn't seem like she would fit as an ally but who knows?

The way I see it, she's like Catwoman. She's not all evil but she's not entirely good either. She's flexible and can change her stance from evil/good whenever she pleases.

So if she even finds out Splinter is her true father, chances are she still won't stick around, a wild spirit like her.
