I love the choices for the personal pronouns that the turtles use: Leo and Raph use the typical masculine “ore” that most teenage boys would use (I can see Raph also using “ore-sama” when he brags or bullies Mikey, it would be very fitting), Don uses the boyish “boku,” denoting his soft-spoken and gentle nature, and Mikey uses the more unusual “oira,” very fitting for the comic relief character with a childish side (it’s interesting, too, because, iirc, other Mikeys in different iterations tend to use “boku” to emphasize Mikey’s boyishness, like in 2012 and Rise). Also, Mikey calling Don “Dona-chan” is so adorable. Out of all the brothers, only Mikey could get away with that, and only Don would allow it given how prideful the other two can get.

@@user-th8xh1kq8s it’s mostly used in Japanese dubs of western works, I’ve found. Like Mikey here, and Eric Cartman from South Park, apparently. I guess the archetype of mischievous but harmless male characters isn’t as popular in Japanese works? Or maybe it’s seen as a bit old-fashioned, as some might get the impression that the character is from a rural area, which Cartman certainly is. I agree, though, we definitely need more “oira” users, it’s so charming. It fits Mikey to a T, that’s for sure.

I like how Usagi talks in old Japanese.

The "Cowabunga!" at the beginning is awesome, but also hilarious because in the original American, the none of the Turtles except Mikey use "Cowabunga"

I'm a Japanese fan of TMNT2003, and I still love this work. It was a pity that the Japanese dubbing ended with Season 2, the voice actors did a great job (I especially love Leonardo's battle shouts), but the DVD probably won't be released. Seasons 3, 4, and 5, which were not aired in Japan, were so interesting that I made the subtitles myself and made a DVD, and I was explaining them to my father and enjoying them together.

My main reason for still learning Japanese is to figure out what is being said cause subtitles aren't exactly helping me. Edit: 7:16 Not even in Japan is Leo safe from being chucked through windows.

Back in NES and SNES era there actually are Japanese versions of TMNT games, an some of them like SNES Turtles in Time there're more dialogue texts than the English version(namely, the boss defeat quotes). A shame voice acting can't fit into such old age catridges.

Wouldn’t it be real interesting if they got Rica Matsumoto to voice April o Neil because she’s voiced by Ash ketchup in America

When i read the title, this wasn't what i thought I'd get... I love it

Funny seeing this because in the 2012 show there was an episode with Mikey and Leo fighting a giant mutant monster when Leo thinks the monster ate Mikey he goes beast mode and attacks it but the fight resembles the fight scene in Attack on Titan my thinking is that one of the creators saw an episode of Attack on Titan and put a similar scene in the TMNT episode
