To Grunger_Kittie, I was just joking around with ya.

And no comment on that guy you used to know.

Back to Venus again, I didn't mind her so much. I just wish Saban wouldn't of made her so ditzy. Her mistakes were funny the first few times but then she just sounded like a moron.

Well I finally saw the Debut of Next Mutation... I don't know, she seems to throw the dynamic a little... Maybe with a little more time and character devolpment, she could have been a good character, but I guess now we'll never know.

I think They should have another female character, just not nessiarily a turtle, I'd still like to see a Cat or something.

No, not the same character. At the moment, I have over 30 fan fics to my name, some short, some long. And more in the brainstorming stage. I think, if I added everything up, Raph would get the most action, and most of those characters are heavily based on myself. But I don't wanna leave the others out in the cold either. I'm a balanced fan fiction writer, and I don't let my Raph fangirl-tendency interfere with my storytelling.

I don't mind the concept behind Venus's character, but I *didn't* like the fact that Saban was behind the Next Mutation. As soon as I heard that, I thought "Oh no... The show is going to be like Power Rangers." And it was. Cheesy lines. Fake fighting. Stupid filler scenes (and reused scenes) and a lack of real character development. I didn't like anything about the show... but it was TMNT... and so I watched it.

Getting back to Venus... I like the idea of their being another turtle character. Note, I didn't say a new "TMNT" character. There are only 4 TMNT and they should stay that way. There were only 4 turtles in the bowl... not 5. I have no problem with her being a mutant turtle that was raised to be shinobi. I have no problem with her travelling to NYC to find Splinter and the TMNT. But she shouldn't be their blood relative. I think, if anything she should be a surrogate younger sister to them... or maybe a love interest to one of them, but I'm no fanfic writer so I don't know what sounds better on paper.

At any rate, Venus is ok in my book... as long as she's included in the TMNT universe in a proper and serious manner. Hell, I like her so much I even made HeroClix stats for her.

(And yeah, she is pretty damn hot!)

Actually, they proved in the show she was not a blood relative, and none of the guys are related either. She was seen as a sister though, and maybe if there had been a second season we might have seen some romance. (I still vote for her pairing with Leo or Mike, though she's been paired with pretty much everyone.)

And they simply assumed that she was in the jar with them. They don't have any proof. I still think there's a much bigger story behind the whole thing.

So, yeah, Saban is evil incarnate, Venus and the TMNT were simply innocent bystanders.

Two questions: How? and Why?

**HorseTechie** · 03-06-2003, 10:36 AM

How and Why? That will never be known, for Saban does not make sense!

They never say! Leo and Vee are talking and he tells her that he and the other guys aren't related, and that Venus is not their sister. It then goes on into a very awkward psuedo-romantic moment that makes me gag every time I see it. But it's worth it for the "Let's return to your home in the toilet." line. "That's sewer." "What's the difference?" "Well, actually, not a lot."

But if you read the TMNT Letters on the Official Site, "Don" claims to have blood tested his brothers and Venus, so they know they aren't blood related.

She did become a surrogate "sister", the same way the guys see Splinter as their "father", even though they aren't even the same species. She wasn't part of the continuum very long, and they were still feeling each other out when she "disappeared". I think the guys were still thinking romance, and it's very hard to think that way about someone you consider a sister.

Wow, all this talk about Venus and how bad she is, makes me glad I didn't see the series
