Why do people hate 2k3 mikey?
Seriously, why do some(not all) people think he is the worst incarnation of the character?
I thought that 2003 Mikey is the second best incarnation of the character, next to the 2012 version of the character, who is my favorite incarnation of the character. anyway, why do people hate the 2k3 version of the character?

I didn't mind him at first, but after winning the Battle Nexus, he turned into the most annoying and obnoxious SOB EVER!!!

He was fine in season 1, but after that it seemed like he became obnoxious and kinda retarded as well. Plenty of his "jokes" weren't funny and sometimes just flat out embarrassing.

I will admit 2003 Mikey's personality in of itself is not bad (it is slightly better than 2012) it just that I really strongly dislike the voicing acting behind it and I'm sorry but the voice is simply too obnoxious for me. It was like a small part of that character was taking up to freak'n eleven. Greg cipes's voice in the new show is much more subtle and has depth to his portrayal.

He had his obnoxious moments, but all in all I like 4kids Mikey. His girly screams are quite humorous.

Because he's awful. He's loud and self-centered and the vehicle for nearly all of the series patently unfunny attempts at humor. His character regresses horribly over the course of all seven seasons and generally stands in stark contrast to the humble, caring Michelangelo both Mirage and the Fred Wolf cartoon had presented.

His character gets progressively worse throughout the course of the show. Which is a shame because I really liked him in the first few seasons.

Mikey was my favorite character on the 4Kids show until the S4 premiere, he dropped to the bottom of the barrel so fast after that episode aired...
Seasons 1 and 2 I had no problem with him at all (although I preferred how he sounded in S1, never liked the overly gruff/older-sounding voice he took on after a while), he was lovable and amusing (although he did seem a bit dim a couple of times in S2). I still loved him just as much in S3, but I'm not going to lie...the problems I started having with his character were definitely becoming noticeable to me that season. "Winning" the Battle Nexus Championship most certainly inflated his ego between seasons, and it showed. His constant bragging about it quickly became annoying IMO. Plus, the trend of Mikey learning some kind of lesson, only to have it completely ignored/forgotten by the next episode became a thing that season too (I don't remember noticing it in seasons 1 and 2 TBH). Basically, Mikey's flaws started showing, for me, in S3. But they were IMO mild and I was able to easily forgive/ignore them. But then his asshole-behavior/narcissism came flying out of the woodwork in the S4 premiere...and that was basically the beginning of the end of my love for 4Kids Mikey. That season onward he's a huge jerk who never learns anything, stops showing compassion for those around him after awhile, seems to get dumber, and is completely self-absorbed and doesn't care who he annoys/insults to satisfy his own amusement! And it just gets worse and worse too. |

Maybe I should start a "why do people hate 2k3 Raph" thread. Cause you know, there are times I hate his stupidity and ego.

There will always be haters no matter what...
I wouldn't say I hate 2k3 Mikey, but he's probably my least favorite incarnation of him. Not for any particular reason, just because I find the other incarnations to be much more like able. Plus, I think they tried to hard to make 2k3 Mikey be funny, which most of the time he wasn't and just came off as annoying. |

I liked 2K3 Mikey until he won the Battle Nexus. After that he became a huge jerk, and I also hated how he'd be taught lessons and then forget about them by the next episode that basically dealt with the same thing. So horrible.

I don't hate him at all. But I do have my reservations about the turtle titan/justice force episodes

they just say they don't like his narcissism and his some of jokes.... I love both Mikeys but I have to admit 2003 Mikey did get a little braggy after the Battle Nexus XD...... 2012 Mikey might not be the brightest crayon in the box....but he is still a compassionate, creative, and fun loving character. Mikey is the heart of the team.....thats his job. 2003 Mikey...seemed to lose some of the traits that makes a "Mikey" later in the series that said he was still my favorite turtle  and has his moments~I laughed at most of his jokes~ (then again I laugh at everything) XD

People have gone as far to call this version of Mikey a stupid/retard. I just dont understand the hate, he is goofy, but not dumb by any means.
