If someone ever did something more with her, I'd still like to see her more notably different and not just a girl vision of the TMNT.
Make her older and a little bigger, a notably different species of turtle, and go in the opposite direction of girl stereotypes media often likes to go for by instead making her a tad bit more bestial and less "human" than the TMNT are, more along a similar level of how Leatherhead and Slash tend to be mentally, and a bit in looks. Give the boys an interesting ally to keep them on their toes because she's still got a bit of the wild nature in her, which gives them a mirror on their own inner humanity that makes them different from her and the wild parts of her they can't really relate to. Likewise, she might not quite relate to some of the more "human" aspects of their lives or not see the point in it. |

They need to focus on making a good TMNT incarnation post-Mirage. They haven't been able to do that yet. Then after doing so they can worry about a new Venus (or not), way later.

Just like in the Ninja Turtle The Next Mutation episode Who Needs Her we find out WHY we as a fandom NEED Venus de Milo back to tmnt. This is a toxic fan base that won't accept a strong independent character and they're right adding a new person to the cast never works. But you know how it works? Legacy characters who replace others, just how Tommy replaced Jason in Power Rangers or Wally West replaced The Flash. Leonardo needs to die heroically fighting either Shredder or dragonlord or whoever with Venus being able to take him down right after, that way she gains the respect not only from the other turtles but the fandom and now she is allowed to replace Leo as the new leader of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. It's the only way to bring her back and people to accept her. #parishilton #readyforthenewnew #shinobi

Don't you hurt my Leo... Replace him and I'm out. Rise just turning him into...whatever happened there... was bad enough.

Now the series can be viewed on netflix, I think maybe now it will be perceived differently, among those viewers who did not know about this series and did not see it before. About the uniqueness of the fighting style of Venus . Aside from her magical abilities, I would like to see her unique distinctive style. But here we start from the fact that her teacher in the series took her to China. But in the new origin story (if it does happen), it may be different, and we would perceive it differently. Therefore, there is no specific way to say. About her relationship. It's probably natural to assume that she should be a love interest, but there are some problems here. First, the turtles really fought a battle both physically and psychologically and mentally, but they did not have a love drama. (Not to mention Raphael. For me, this is a separate sore point, since this is my favorite character, and my favorite female character is Mona from the cartoon of the 90s, maybe later I will raise this question too. There will be a lot of arguments and swearing in this topic, so not now.) Secondly, the problem is that Venus, unlike Jennika, was a female turtle initially. And it is clear that the characters grow up and I think it will be somehow wrong to ignore the questions of love. Therefore, it seems to me that probably when Venus returns, so as not to create conflicts between the brothers, she will still be like a sister or a friend to the turtles. As I wrote above, it will not take a leading position most likely. Although only if Kevin and the team are interested in a certain women's team in some arc. In this case, it can already be. Although it is unlikely. If in general I think it will become a pleasant part of the family with its own values and characteristics and also fall in love with the public and would be an interesting character. |

Because Jennika started out human and didn't lose that part of her. The TMNT were mutated enough to pretty much gain it on a similar/equal level. A more feral Venus, however, could experiment more with a character that started out as an animal but was mutated a little less than the TMNT, keeping a little of the wild side intact and creating an internal struggle of the inner beast vs civility similar to some versions of Leatherhead.

Give her bigger boobies. Which is half joke. I get giving her breasts to know she's female but at the same time I've never seen tits on a turtle sooo lol.
I'm not too keen on her being "animalistic", she should keep her shell where it belongs, washing the guy's bandanas and cleaning up that filthy sewer lair..... lol. |

I guess I'll just say...
I don't care much for Venus. Or Jennika. Or Kirby. Or having more turtles aside from the main 4. |

Same. I think we just need to accept that Venus is not coming back.

They tried this with Vernon Fenwick, and blew it. So i guess those up top don’t see a reason. Even Carter was only given a swat at.

No one of sound mind hasn't wholly accepted that for a couple of decades now.

No.
There are a lot of problems with the TMNT property and a lot of things that could be done creatively in future versions. But adding a token female Ninja Turtle isn't one of those. The Turtles have been 4 since 1984. No point adding another one. Otherwise Venus would have worked back in 1997 and would have stuck around, don't you think? |

I think the shell-boobs weren't big enough, or it might've worked.

She was a lame character that was shoehorned into the group for no logical reason. And The Next Mutation sucked too. That didn't help either. |
