Best/Favorite Female Character

*Papenbrook* · 01-03-2015, 05:45 PM

As of now, I don't really have a favorite female character.

Who is your favorite/best female character, and why?

*CyberCubed* · 01-03-2015, 07:59 PM

Irma doesn't count.

April and Karai are about the same to me.

*snake* · 01-03-2015, 08:05 PM

Karai. Background female #2 is a runner up though.

*IndigoErth* · 01-03-2015, 09:20 PM

Spoiler:

Don't really have a favorite right now. Like April sans mind powers ok, but she really needs to take a step back. I was starting to like human Karai, but then I guess the same principal exists in fictional worlds as does the real one: s*** happens.

Maybe Tea Time Girl.

*Shark_Blade* · 01-03-2015, 09:29 PM

April Derp.

*Powder* · 01-03-2015, 09:53 PM

April is my favorite (this is my favorite version of the character, sans psychic powers) but I do think Karai is done better.

*MsMarvelDuckie* · 01-03-2015, 10:09 PM

Karai, definitely. She's got more background and I really like the way they've handled her.

I think Karai is the best constructed of the female characters. She's sassy, clever, and pretty darn smart, with a well thought out background, without being a heartless shrew that a lot of television bad girls are made out to be. I'm pretty fond of April, though, personality-wise, because we share a few personality traits, and because she's pretty brave (although sometimes I wish she'd be a bit smarter about picking when and where to become involved). The one thing that really bugs me about her is how unnecessarily loud she can be. Literally. Running a few blocks shouldn't make you sound like you're about to shrilly wheeze up a lung. Oh well.

Ice Cream Kitty, I believe Michelangelo called it a girl...

Though with so few females to choose from, it's not really a fair decision. We need to wait on the inevitable addition of characters such as Renet, Mona Lisa, one of the fox mutants (either Alopex or Ninjara), a real Irma, Angel (likely in the guise of Nobody) and probably some version of Venus, and possibly the introduction of Casey's sister.

Same here. Since Irma wasn't really human, my vote goes to ICK as well! Love that kitty. Hm, or maybe Tea Time Girl. Ciro bring her back, please! lol

April is best female: character

, Karai is overrated

, and Irma wasn't even a real girl.

~~Mew~~ · 01-04-2015, 06:19 AM

April is WAY to overrated

*neatoman* · 01-04-2015, 08:29 AM

A thread dedicated to female characters? In the Nickelodeon TMNT show?

I don't have one, Karai and April are equal to me. I didn't really like Irma until her big reveal

*pennydreadful* · 01-04-2015, 04:49 PM

Karai for the win.

drewizzle88 · 01-04-2015, 11:34 PM

April for me, I didn't like the initial idea of her being young, but I think it's worked out great.

*neatoman* · 01-05-2015, 01:02 PM

Just for fun I counted the list of characters on Wikipedia, the show has (including cameos and forthcoming while ignoring the ones from the cartoon parodies) roughly 80 characters (I lost the exact count), how many are females?

Well, there's April, Karai, Bigfoot, Renet, the little girl who had tea with Leo and a TV host. The rest is questionable however, I think ICK was female, Kraang Prime has a femenine voice, Irma is questionable, there's the android, the wasps might have been female based how wasps are in real life, there's the mutated April clone, the mom thing which may just have shapeshifted into a female and might not be female itself.

So including the questionable ones, the female/male ratio is roughly 1 female in 6 characters. Ignoring the odd ones it's 1 in 13. Roughly 7% of the characters are female if you ignore questionably females, if you include them it's 16%.

"But what about the important ones?" you say, "What's the figure when it just comes to important characters?". Well, Ignoring all the monsters of the week and rather expendable recurring characters like the PDs and Murakami, the ratio is: 2 in 6, 17% and that included Irma...
