Honestly, Studio Orange are such a bunch of chads because this reboot was so risky.
The animation changed, they made the season 1 a prequel and didn't tell anyone, they changed the timeline, they added new characters with different designs and used a different flavor of sci-fi.
A lot of things that could make it fails so easily in the eyes of most people.. But they pulled it off so damn well.
They went against the odds and delivered something beyond amazing.
I am impatient to see what the future holds for this show.
people will think im ordinary until they say one (1) thing about tmnt and all of a sudden im explaining the entire lore starting from the 1990’s movie & why donatello is the best turtle i fear… T^T
tag limit fights me… i must yap… please listen… SOB </3
Honestly, I'm really grateful that my brain isn't wired to jump from hyperfixation to hyperfixation. It has its own unique drawbacks, sure, but I've always found it really comforting that I know what to expect from myself.
Not me idly rerererererererererewatching Gargoyles and realizing I didn't post the Gargoyles AU shit that took me and @amutantturtleenthusiast (18+ blog) by our throats for... what was it, almost a month????
shit was wild, i'm still unwell
so unwell we still babble over it every now and then
we definitely mangled a few concepts for maximum drama
we hit everything, forbidden love, clan politics, clan betrayal, curses that lasted a 1,000 years, reincarnated lovers, stolen family, unethical genetic research, we had Anton Sevarius and Jasper Barlow for ultra fuckery, enraged glowy eyed action, tender romance, figuring out how the new york subway system works, overseas travel shenanigans when half your party turns to stone in the day, the implications of half your crew turning to stone during the day, hilarious clan-to-clan misunderstandings, revenge quests... hoo.
we had them replace the tengu who taught humans ninjutsu
they big as fuck
sprinkled a little Abe no Seimei seasoning on my Venus
My Donnie was metaphorically born in the wrong century, he's fine now he has gears, wrenches, and WiFi
...we gave them hair
Barlow and Sevarius got to a couple people... unfortunately
fkkn love that funky li'l gecko i reused it for my Mondo
the Manhattan clan is ...just somewhere in the background, away
