I've only recently started catching up on 2k3, and so far I really dislike Raphael's voice, and I can't say I have much affection for Splinter.
Otherwise, not bad so far |

I think it's a voice thing again. It doesn't sit well with me. He seems more detached, and less compassionate somehow.
Maybe I'll warm to him. |

I guess they're going for that voice since he is supposed to be old and such, but it does sound.... I don't know... I wanna say, someone speaking out of breath? Asthmatic? I don't know... it's hard to find a word, but it does sound like the poor dude is stressing his throat every time he uses his Splinter voice.

The only one that annoyed me was Casey's. Raph's voice felt out of place considering he was supposed to be a teenager and not a 50 year old man. I was not very impressed with Shredder's voice as Oroku Saki. |

Hmm. Kind of tough for me to list since most of the stuff listed already didn't bother me too much and more of things I would've like to see more of.
-Rat King after "I, Monster" since there was a lot of potential with him and Splinter regarding the whole 'control over rats' thing. -That soldier mutated into a monster by Bishop from "Dragon's Brew." Not only did we learn that he has family who clearly missed him, but it also brought more insight on Bishop and how far he'll go to achieve his warped goals. -Inconsistent characterization of Mikey. I was never bothered with him after Battle Nexus but absolutely adored "Grudge Match" in that it not only served to give Mikey his comeuppance for being such a braggart, but also showed how formidable he was when he focuses and dominates Kluh in the last few minutes of the fight. You'd think this would serve as some good character development for him, but nope, it's pretty much dropped in favor of keeping him as the comic relief guy and that it's bad to develop that archetype. -How Karai seemingly forgot Shredder almost killed her during Exodus which made her whole revenge sthick in Season 4 utterly unbearable to watch. -Making Leo's angst in Season 4 take up half the Season itself. I know, it's not something one could easily get over after what he experienced and made for some good development. But jeez, it got old after a while and would've helped to not showcase for every episode. -The surprisingly lack of Leatherhead in late Season 5. When the Turtles were gathering everyone they could, both ally and enemy, to take on Tengu Shredder, I couldn't help but feel that something was missing. Until I realized it was Leatherhead. I would've been okay with it if there was a reason or explanation for his absence, but nothing of the sort was given and never alluded to. And that's all I got right now. |

Karai also had that problem emulating that accent.

I Started to dislike Mikey's personality and voice more and more as the series went on. He became more Homeresque and annoying by the time we hit "Fast Forward" maybe even before.

I've been watching Fast Forward, and I don't like how Raphael gets mad over nothing like a spoiled brat, is thankless when Cody creates a simulation room for training, etc. This carried over a little bit into the IDW books: "Someone better tell us how come Chet is a stinkin' robot!" The point of Raphael should be that he's quiet and a little socially awkward, but he should never just lash out for the sake of lashing out with no provocation. This was done best in the first movie, where Raph actually tries to take the high road with Casey because he sees something in him that he doesn't like about himself. So that's one thing about the 4Kids series that I actually HATE now that I'm watching it all over again.

Mainly, the superheroes. The first Silver Sentry one was ok, and the first Justice Force one was revealed to be all in Mikey's imagination at the end, so that was fine. But they really felt shoehorned in to the shows world. Peter Laird ****ed up on that one.
Other than that, the abuse of stock footage and certain musical cues makes the show a little hard to rewatch. |

Hun hasn't appeared yet. What magic? And the alien invasion was just for the season finale (to the general public anyway). It wasn't dragged out to an entire season.
