Man, absolutely same here. The 2012 was my childhood and staple, I was obsessed with those guys (hell, these lovable ninjas started me on my love towards Japan and animes! 🤩😍) however, this version always hurt me for some reason what I couldn't fully explain. Then seeing the Rise hit me. It hurt me how much the 2012 guys didn't feel like brothers and a family. They seriously felt more like friends and teammates who live together, rather than brothers (who were holed up for 15 years). Sure, they had their caring dynamic with each other but aside of the perfect Splinter (still the all-time banger 🤩) they just felt cold and distant with each other. Not even mentioning the bullying part. But the Rise? They felt like a family and close brothers with each other all the way through! 😍 They are sweet, caring and more wholesome with each other then ever, Raph is the best, Donnie's and April's relationship was fixed to a pitch perfection, Donnie is fully stocked with personality, and I'm fully convinced that partly evil mad scientist would destroy the world for his brothers, period. And while their Splinter was a massive downgrade in some aspects for me (seeing him in the layer games was traumatic after the 2012 Splinter) I ended up adoring how he was more loose and loving with his sons on his own way. He let his kids out into the world so early, he didn't always train them as children what allowed their personality and relationships with each other and April to truly develop, and my absolute favourite part about him what I heard from somewhere else: He was first their dad, then their master, unlike the other Splinters. F!CK YES! 🥳 This series scratched that exact spot for me what the 2012 one didn't and I'm so thankful I gave a chance for this! It is absolutely a shame how partly because of the new teen titans this show was disregarded when it had so much potential! I'd go even so far ahead to say that Leo's line about them not giving grandchildren to Splinter would've been the perfect hidden set up for a long-arching story line where at least 1 of the turtles for once would become a father. Yes, a father. Sorry for the long rant here but I'll be forever convinced that these guys were set up to have a family of their own (some of them) and I would've been over the moon to eventually, in the later seasons see Leo or Raph become a dad. So, I really hope you read through all the way here @squirrelbeez5123, sorry for the long-ass comment and info dumping here. I'm just really glad that somebody shares my opinions on my new favourite! 😁 I'm praying with you that they'll eventually get a new season but until then, I can at least tell you the name of this fan made, hand drawn KZread series: cass apocalypse au (it has a happy ending). If you want a whole story on the future turtles and Casey then I strongly recommend you to take a look at least, you won't regret it! 😁🤩 Bye! 👋

If I were to rate every Turtle series in different categories it would be. 1987: Most Nostalgic. Didn't actually grow up with it but it paved the way for the series to come and for that it deserves nothing but respect. If it failed there would be no other series. 2003: Best stories. The 2003 series juggled multiple stories and handled them all pretty well not saying the other series didn't have good stories but 2003 had had the best lore, world building and over arching narratives. 2012: Best Characters. This was a close one with Rise but 2012 had some of the best characters as a hole in the franchise. From Splinter to Shredder. Rise: Best animation. The animation in rise is god tier. Seriously it could challenge some shounen anime.

It doesn't matter how good the animation is when the designs are that bad. You kids didn't grow up in the 80s or 90s but it was impossible to escape all the merchandise of the cartoon because of how good those designs were. Comics even brought them back this year because that's the stuff that sells just like the 90s movie merchandise. The designs of Rise don't have that same grab. Most wouldn't even know that those are supposed to be the turtles similar to how the reboot Michael Bay designs are disliked.

Even the team behind TMNT 2012 realized they forgot to fix Mutagen Man by the end. So for the Mad Max style episode where Raph is in sort of a pit fight, they put his lifeless corpse in the bottom of the moat. Not really resolving that plot line, but at least they acknowledged him

33:40 Actually, the 2012 series showed that the mutagen worked by combining DNA with the last organism the original subject was around before being mutated, and in the mutant apocalypse arc, we see Raph and Mikey grow hair, meaning they have human DNA. This is just the first series were it was explicitly said.

The 2012 series was my introduction to the turtles and to this day still is my favorite version

Rise Donnie is by far the greatest incarnation of his character. If he had to fight against any of his other incarnations (wether all or only one of them) I genuinely and absolutely believe he would win. His tech is definitely far more advanced than any other Donatello incarnation we’ve seen. While the other Donatellos either complain about having a “stupid stick” (like how 2012 Donnie did that one episode), instead of making something even more useless or even worse or just plain bitching about it, rise Donnie actually does something not only better but makes himself a weapon that’s far more useful for himself in combat than any other Donatello has ever made. That basically makes him the smartest Donatello incarnation we’ve seen so far.

18:03 rise Leo actually has a lot of similarities to other iterations: he’s a strategist, always one step ahead, he’s protective, he’s tenacious, he even takes the helm as default leader sometimes. but those are only when raph is either not up to the task or gone completely. with raph being older and the leader Leo doesn’t take things seriously bc he doesn’t have to (there was a whole episode of then brothers relying on raph too much and not taking care of their own problems) which is why when raph is taken by the krang in the movie it really forces him to step up and that’s when we get to see more classic Leo.

@TheRibottoStudios

I feel like if he were to meet 03 Leo 03 Leo would initially brush him off as reminding him too much of 03 Mikey, but definitely respect him over time. Rise Leo teaches us that Leo in ANY OTHER iteration gives up so much of himself to be the leader. Michelangelo said it best in the 2003 show, Leo being leader allowed the other brothers to be who they are. And no one really stops to think about that. Leo uses humor to cope with a HUGE inferiority complex too in the 2018 show. That could be something he and 03 Leo talk about. Considering 03 Leo used anger and emotional distance to cope with what they had to do to stop shredder in the season 3 finale.

No way you just mixed this awesome movie montage with Live and Learn on 11:22. As a TMNT fan and a Sonic fan I almost passed out, it goes so well together.

48:58 Truer words have not been said, because hearing the 2012 theme song in adverts prior to the show's premier as a kid, was what made 8 year-old me go from, "Ew dumb turtle show for boys" to "... I think I'll watch this actually" And a decade later, here I am. Still my favourite theme song, too

Okay theory, Netflix recently released ROTTMNT about a month before the movie released on Netflix but the only released season 1 not season 2. I believe that Netflix is going to release all of season 2 with the episodes that were cut, the voice cast had already finished recording, the storyboards were drawn already and the 15 or so episodes that were cut were pretty much finished when Fuhrer Nick cut them out. I think that Netflix is definitely going to release a season 2 because they A have the budget and time to finish season 2 at least because let’s be honest if Riverdale can have 6 seasons rise can at least get 15 finished episodes and B rise has been consistently trending on pretty much every social media platform since the movie came out and even some time before that, like you name it it’s been trending such as TikTok, Twitter, Instagram, KZread like it’s clear people want more and if I were Netflix I’d see this as a potential goldmine for opportunity and of course, money.

1987 Krang had the quote in the lotus episode tho, "I may be evil, but I'm an equal opportunist."

I always found every other Splinter pretty cool and all, but every Splinter has always been at the height of their game and spiritualism. The only ways to grow they really had was to either teach the turtles something, or die. Having Splinter have a full character arc and growth and not simply be sacrificed on the vehicle of character progressions was so great in Rise. They did a great job in the show of balancing comedy (which is borderline sketchy parenting combined with what's so obviously clinical depression) with him eventually realizing the responsibility he's shirked. He deserves kudos for being realistic; being a single DAD who is a RAT and lives in a SEWER and keeping four kids alive. But he eventually realizes that the bare minimum combined with reliving his glory days isn't enough and rises to the occasion. Favorite Splinter hands down. Most interesting most developed most growth.

Rise I feel like is criminally under appreciated. At first glance it seems like just a comedy trip, and hell of one at that because the show is actually really funny, but it’s so much more. There is so much wonderfully written representation from queer Leo to Donnie being autistic, and even though I was opposed to it at first I LOVE the designs and personality changes to all the characters. It’s very different, but so unique, and it’s honestly just a complete tragedy that rise was ended so early because there was so much more to offer. And the movie? Hell dont get me started. The first scenes got me twitchy and giddy with excitement, because I LOVED how dark they were able to make it. It really puts the stakes so much higher and I love that they had the guts to include blood, a curse, and literal dead bodies of known characters (April, big momma), or signs of dead characters on top of two on screen deaths. And god watching the movie was just gut wrenching because I could tell the team had so much more to tell with rise, and even in such a short time they managed to make Leo’s arc fleshed out and believable even when I know it was supposed to be spaced out. I don’t think I’ll ever forgive Nickelodeon for how they treated rottmnt because it will remain one of my comfort shows for years. Praying for a season 3 or another movie, but sadly not hopeful of it.

Makes me wonder what a Turtles Forever sort of crossover would look like if, say, someone or something tried to summon the turtles and their various supporting characters to end up getting combinations of them from many different realities, resulting in only the highest-tier versions of these characters showing up. So, 2003 Leonardo, 80s Michelangelo, Rise Donatello, and 2007 Raphael having to learn and get past eachothers' quirks and differences to face off against the best of Shredders and Krangs.

I’d like to say my thoughts on Rise Donatello. 1. His tech prowess is so broken the only way I can describe it is if you took the ‘87 and ‘90’s tech prowess and multiplied it by CRACK (to the power of 5). 2. He is very easily shown to be Autism Representation done SOOO RIGHT. I think the show runners actually made sure that was part of his characterization intentionally. 3. He’s voiced by Josh Brener, who (along with fellow turtle Ben Schwartz) also plays a character in Ducktales 2017. (He plays Mark Beaks, the “Rival” of scientist Gyro Gearloose.) 4. Finally, I just vibe with him on a quantum level. I think he deserves his own Tier. *THE BEST PURPLE BOI TIER.*

It's great that 2012 Tmnt gets the recognition it deserves! Objectively speaking, it is the best adaptation. Yeah, it's not perfect, but you can see it was made with all the love and respect for the franchise and I LOVE IT.

"Objectively speaking, it is the best adaptation." There's nothing objective about that statement. Personally, I think the 2003 serious is an absolute masterpiece for the first five seasons and does such a great job adapting comic storylines, I really think it is the best adaptation so far.

@@salaciouspancakes I was talking about the story, all the background details, most of the character design, Splinter's backstory, all the training they have and all that Japanese influence they have (their manners, all the food they ate, they even know Japanese) not only ninjutsu but their whole life is a mix between Japan and America. I love how this makes sense and not just because "I saw a ninjutsu book". I'm not saying 2003 is rubbish or anything like that, I'm just talking about the other things that make 2012 a really good release. It is not a copy of the 80s or 03, it has its own sense and personality, they respect their villains as much as possible, and I say it again, there are as many details as watching them breathe and they are not just static in the background. They move even when they are not the center of attention. The first 2 seasons were not good at this because they lacked the budget but as the seasons progressed the details they added became more noticeable. There have been many people talking about how this version mixes very well what its predecessors did and without a doubt, it is the best that has come out so far.

Excellent list, I'm glad to see Rise is finally getting the love it deserves from fans. The fact that Bayverse Mikey is on the same rank as the goddamn Next Mutation and that rank's name is just...(chef's kiss)

I am shocked by how close your rankings for the movies and tv shows are to mine! Also love the respect for Rise!

The 2007 TMNT movie is the BEST representation of the tension between Leo and Raph how Raph always thinks he deserves to be leader and not Leo but after being humbled realizing the pressure Leo has as the leader of the team

Fast forward and back to the sewers happened because of how dark the show went (insane in the membrane being yanked from airing). The network forced them to overcorrect, but I'm absolutely certain that's not what Laird originally wanted. After fast forward had been running for a while, he paid for the 5th season to be finished out of pocket, as it had been shelved due to the overcorrection, and he had originally planned for THAT to be the final season. The show was still making them money, so they couldn't let it die, but wasn't pulling in numbers like before, which is where back to the sewers came from. By that point it was too late. In conclusion: I don't consider the final two seasons to be canon to 2003.

I only consider them canon because of the amazing ending to BTTS. The wedding episode is one of the best in the show, and I think it at least makes BTTS all worth it. As for FF…yeah it’s very easy to be skipped and has like 8-10/26 good episodes that I’d watch again. If BTTS and FF were just one conjoined season with the BTTS half being only 13 episodes, I think everyone would like it a lot more.

If you like 2012s splinters origin then you will LOVE the IDW comic’s version!! It’s amazing-

love seeing some tmnt love, and ngl i was on the camp of hating rise at first then realizing i didn't have any real argument besides the show just not being what i personally want from the tmnt. i watched like an episode or two and i liked it it was ok, just not what i like from the tmnt but either way it's a shame it didn't get the chance of fully developing and in general the gigantic amount of problems they had to go through in development.

@@mendlests mf if you want me to list everything good that came out of Rise, we'd be here for longer than you'd want to be, as you express a clear distaste for the show, and likely only made your comment so that you could shit on it because you're a victim to your nostalgia, which will not allow you to sit down and enjoy a children's show for what it is rather than what it's predecessors were. But if you *really* want me to list some stuff off... The characters are all loveable, fun, distinct from each other, and work really well together. (and believe it or not, they do share quite a few traits with their older counterparts, they're just presented differently) It has a strong sense of humor The action in general, not just the shredder fight, is incredible The show knows when, and more importantly, HOW to get serious It introduces new and interesting concepts to a large yet relatively formulaic franchise, and utilizes these concepts well! They get inventive with the turtle species, character roles, and personalities, while still very much so being a TMNT piece of media! This is more subjective, but personally I LOVE the character designs! They showcase so much without being too on the nose, and are very inspiring as an aspiring artist! Theme song slaps, not the best TMNT theme but still a fun one. Fun new villains! And traumatic renditions of old ones (looking at the movie right now, seriously, why was that rated Y7) Killer voice acting! Seriously, every VA involved did an insane job, and I can practically feel how much fun some of them were having in certain scenes! So. much. fanservice!! If it exists in the TMNT franchise, 8 times out of 10 is it gonna get referenced, but usually in a subtle way as the show doesn't need to rely on them to carry itself. Donnie actually has a personality beyond being the smart purple tech guy. Because of this, he also regularly carries the comedy (not a small feat!! this show is funny AF) And finally, most importantly in my humble opinion, it's brought in new fans. It's brought back old fans. It's bringing people together, united in their love for silly turtle teens. Newcomers are getting into the franchise as a whole because of it, old timers (some of them, sadly not enough) are getting over their biases. I genuinely have not encountered a fandom so full of joy, of love, of just...general positivity and passion? And so many people have come together to share that, in a way I genuinely don't think would've happened had it not been for Rise and Rise SPECIFICALLY. If you keep giving a plant the same chemical filled water, it's going to wither away eventually, slowly, quietly. Rise was what the fandom needed to thrive again, not another reboot with the same structure as all the others, and regardless of your feelings towards the series...that's a beautiful thing, no?

Casey's battle cry, 'goongala,' actually comes from the comics. So does April being a lab assistant. A lot of the 2003 series was about getting back to more of the Mirage Comics roots.

Great video while Rise was very different but it was really good. The Turtles did need a change as there wasn't much comic content to use after 03-07 & the Nickelodeon version. 03-07 is my favorite incarnation of the Turtles. It's still weird to me that the creators hated the 80s Turtles when it made them a stupid amount of money & giants of the comic/comic based world

This was an extremely good video, thank you for your honesty on all of it. So nice to see such well written information being presented, especially from someone who has SEEN Rise of the TMNT. All I ever hear is hate for the show from people who hadn't given it a chance. It needs more, so so much. Thank you again for such a good video~

41:28 Ngl I would like for another go at the idea that Shredder being a force of nature similar to Calamity Ganon from Botw. It’s such a cool idea that Rottmnt tried to do but couldn’t due to time. Genuinely hope that comes back as a concept for future official tmnt projects.

TMNT 2012 is the best - the choreography - the storytelling - the designs - the visuals - the characters - the humor - the action - the shredder fight - the animation Easily the best version of the TMNT to date.

I’ve seen a few head canons on how rises power works but I think the one I most agree with is it’s tied with their emotions hence why donnie didn’t discover his power till late, at first they are barely emotionally attached with their father aka the only hamato family member they know but by season 2 they get a stronger bond with their father thats why they suddenly have that power stronger then ever. It’s all tied with their bond with eachother it’s their strongest asset. But that’s just a theory- A FILM THEOR-

Honestly, one of my favourite things about rise is that Donnie is canonically confirmed to be autistic (One of the creators said so on Twitter). Unfortunately, a lot of autistic characters are either treated like innocent children that are utterly incapable of doing anything on their own or as emotionless psychopaths that are complete assholes BECAUSE of their autism. As a young autistic person (or an NPC as this video called me lol) seeing only those kinds of characters kinda fucks with you a bit mentally. I've definitely had thoughts like "what if I can't ever succeed in life because of my autism?" partially because of this. It just sucks that the only confirmed character are either "UwU smol bean must protect" or absolute cunts that could be replaced with robots. Rise Donnie is such a breath of fresh air for me and a lot of other autistic people I've seen talk about the show. Sure he's more emotionally distant than his brothers but the writers made it a point to show he's not emotionless. He really truly cares for his brothers, he just shows that a bit differently and I love that about him. He also shows a lot of other autistic traits throughout the show including stimming, lack of volume control, sensory issues and more. I relate to him a lot personally and he's just a really great character that's treated as just as important as his other brothers. Anyway sorry for the long comment and the half-vent lmao. TLDR: I love this autistic purple turtle cause he's written like an actual person and not a harmful stereotype :)

Yeah I can see that, though personally as an Aspie he kinda makes me feel weird. This more has to due with our culture as a whole, then just Donnie, but I hate the idea that autists are lack empathy or are emotionally distanced, mainly because autistic people are fully capable of showing empathy but it's more an issue of understanding. When Neurodivergents fail to understand the emotions of Neurotypicals, it's seen as a "lack of empathy", yet if a Neurotypical fails to understand the emotions of a Neurodivergent "it's the Neurodivergent's fault". The truth is Neurotyipcals lack empathy for Neurodivergents, it's called the double empathy problem. Autists are just as able to show empathy to other autistics as much Neurotyipcals do to other Neurotyipcals. I feel that rise's Donnie fails to understand that, but honestly most people are ignorant so I'm not angry, but disappointed. I kinda wish Donnie was able to meet an other autist he chould really connect to.

seeing all the praise and interest for ROTTMNT makes me feel so warm. i didn't grow up with tmnt, and the first one i saw was the 2012 one. surprisingly i didnt like it enough to continue watching it though (i feel like april was one of the biggest reasons honestly). so if i knew about 2018 when it came out, i probably wouldn't have judged it at all. but because nickelodeon fucked it over so badly, i literally didn't know it existed until the movie came out. i love 2012 now growing up, but something about the characters and how they interact with each other in rise made me love it the most. at some point i need to watch the other versions as well, and i hope people dont give mutant mayhem the same treatment that rise got. please, actually give it a chance instead of shouting at it with your nostalgia glasses on.

holy shit this commentary is GOLDEN like many others, rise is what got me into this franchise (i casually watched the 2012 rendition when it was still running but i wasn't _into it_ into it back then) so this was a good way for me to be pretty much filled in so i can say i'm mostly up to speed

Actually, I think Michael Bay writing in that article he turtles were April’s childhood pets and She named them was a brilliant idea. It makes sense as to why she has such a close relationship with them.

Awesome video! had me giggling and kicking my feet as a Rise fan, just wanted to clear up the headache abt their mystic powers real quick- (there’s a tdlr at the end) The reason their powers’ origin seems to flip flop around so much is actually cause although there’s Hamato ninpo, Draxum inventions, mystic powers, they actually all come from or have evolved alongside the kraang. Which probably is why he’s able to scream at them and do some magic thievery thingy. Imagine on a family tree at the very top, there’s the kraang. They gave Oroku Saki his armor, and in the last episode it’s revealed that their extraterrestrial nature gave birth to all yokai mystic powers through Empyrean. (fun fact; empyrean in some religions is also the highest form of heaven!) You can even see the weird alien vines Draxum fights with show up growing inside Shredder’s suit at one point. The origins of Hamato ninpo are unknown, but it’s probably somewhat compatible with/ adaptable to kraang powers, cause what else would they want with Oroku Saki’s soul? Karai said her father’s soul was corrupted in return for the armor, and Hamato ninpo is very spiritual as opposed to genetic, since we see April inheriting it from the soul of Karai instead of dna. After the histories of these two magic systems were so intertwined for so long, i’m not surprised that the turtles, who are literally half Hamato, half mystic, can use these powers in a way pretty much interlocking with each other. TLDR; Kraang ➡️ Shredder armor & ➡️ yokai ➡️ teetlez Hamato ninpo ➡️ Karai ➡️➡️➡️ also teetlez the turtles can use all magic power sets in a stitched-together chimera way cause genetically they are stitched-together chimera magicians who look rly goddamn cool

Believe it or not, Venus is now in the IDW comics

Can we just appreciate that 1987 kraang sounds like an old grandpa (Update) YOURE TELLING ME MY FAVORITE SERIES OF THE FRANCHISE COULD’VE HAD 3-7 SEASONS BUT WAS RESTRICTED TO 1.5 WHY WAS THE COMMUNITY SO HIGH IN 2018-2020

I do not believe that I just watched an hour and a half of someone rating everything tmnt. I wish autism had a cure bc I need to sleep.

2012 TMNT has the best ending arc in that apocalyptic future where they all have to find each other again.

What makes me sad is that most of the faults Rise has is simply a result of it being canceled so quickly. Rise had SO MUCH POTENTIAL to be something amazing and th best of all the series' but Nickelodeon was such a dick to them thag they never really had a chance to truly shine. But I feel like this is a really fair ranking. Rise will be my favorite cause it's what introduced me to TMNT but 2012 (with its MANY flaws) is an overall pretty solid series.
