Captain Blue Mask

And there’s me who thinks the exact opposite. :He would make an awesome leader. I don’t think he would want to follow Raph’s plans all the time as seen in Bug Busters..

So what if all this works and we get rottmnt back on the air. How would the writers continue when they literally had to mash 3 seasons worth of developing into that last episode.?

Well, I think I have a pretty decent solution.

The past gens of tmnt had so many different arcs and plot points that have been used multiple times. So many that we haven’t even seen half of them in Rise.

My idea is that even though the writers’ intended story is mostly over due to the cancellation and them being forced to develop the turtles super quickly, they still have hundreds of arcs they can follow due to the past series’.

Remember when Leo in 2003 and 2012 were thrown through a window and the fandom freaked? Yeah well imagine seeing our Blue bandanaed bafoon’s unconscious body being chunked through a glass window to his unknowing brothers.

Or the TMNT 2007 movie moment when due to Leo being gone, Mikey got a job as a birthday party entertainer.

And you know how 2007 Raph went all “nightwatcher” on us? And how 2012 Raph passively mentioned how he almost became the nightwatcher.?

Well you could base an entire Rise SEASON on just those things! And there’s still SO MANY more ideas you can take from past generations.

Just Picture This: It’s a few filler episodes in since Leo was declared leader(for whatever reason.) Raph feels both proud and jealous because he thought he was a good leader/older brother. A small argument between Leo and Raph gets turned into a big deal by Blue and he runs out. Thinking he needs to prove himself, Leo goes looking for some bad guys to beat up. But he runs into someone he didn’t intend to(the newest big bad. Maybe the kraang?) After awhile, his brothers grow worried because he’s been gone a lot longer than normal. Maybe so long that it takes a couple of episodes to find him. So blah blah blah the turtles find out Leo’s been kidnapped. While at April’s house, trying to think of a plan to save him, he comes flying through the window. DUN DUN DUN... so yeah. He’s beat up and in a coma. With a detective-themed episode featuring Donnie and Mikey pretending to be Sherlock and Watson, they find out the Big Bad captured Leo because Big Bad heard he was the leader and wanted to interrogate him(Splinter 100% shows guilt for that.) Soooo now they know who took Leo, Leo is Still in a coma, and Splinter now refuses to let the rest go fight Big Bad because he’s scared the rest of his boys will be taken. Which meannnns they have to keep themselves busy. Mikey gets a job as a birthday party entertainer(maybe he starts out dressing as Disney princesses or something because AW), Donnie just stays at Leo’s side making sure he’s ok, and Raph...refuses to stop fighting. Then the Nightwatcher comes into play(maybe with the help of Cassandra aka Casey Jonessssss and that’s how they become bffs lol.)

So. Yeah.

My point is, the writer’s have so much room to do whatever they want with the show. Whether it’s do something along the lines of what I mentioned above, or come up with something 100% original to Rise. But Whatever they would decide, I know it would be out of love for the turtle boys.

And if @nickelodeon @nickanimation completely ignores us, I’m 6’2 and have muscles as big as Nickelodeon’s ego. I’m ready to post-up.

Okey so we all know that splinter’s announcement in last second had every body shocked. There for is many now wondering why now Raph did nothing wrong as a leader which is true but I don’t think it’s particularly something he did wrong no but it more about how he acts during pressure.

He still has some level of anger issue and yes even tough now in this big cuddly bear version of Raph he still has his problem with patience and anger which we clearly see in this scene.

He cracks under pressure and acts out on his family cuz of it

This pressure also caused him to have a mental break down which is understandable but as leader you can’t let this happen during these kind of moments.

I don’t believe that Raph was a bad leader but he does has qualities that you can’t have as a leader. Leo However has these qualities Raph lacks in like calmness and logic and strategic thinking but Leo doesn’t have the maturity that Raph dose. Anyway I don’t think that in particular Raph has done anything wrong no it just how he reacts under pressure and down the road splinter has realized this Han maybe considered Leo as a better option.

Also I think the Kraang may be the next biggest threat??

Also thrown in Bebop, Rocksteady, and some other villains.

Not only we need old villains but we need allies too. Like Irma?
