Why do they keep killing off the love interest for the Ninja Turtles?
>>
>>83965433
love is gay

>>83965556
Yet Leo and Don could lust after humans?

>>83965433
who did they kill off?
>>
>>83965700

jokes on you
she died last year
>>
>>83965433
you realize love interests in every type of story ever have been killed off as a matter of course, right? it's how you cram in drama, and keep things from getting satisfying and/or boring
>>
>>83965877
But where any of those love interest nude newts?
>>
>>83965433
Everything doesn need a love interest. They're the ninja turtles, cant they just fight stuff?
>>
>>83966013
But who the fuck will save them? Splinter? April? Oh wait, she's a love interest.
>>
>>83965433
What bugged me the most is she went through all the trouble to show up in the TMNT sewer but didn't stick around.
>>
>>83966100
They don't tolerate nudity in the sewer.
>>
Didn't she come back?

wish we could've seen more 90's Mona. the new one is great n all, but i still like the 90's one
>>
>>83967746
If she was in the 4Kids Ninja Turtles, it'd be weird.
>>
>>83967828
that's true. plus laird was running that one so not a chance in hell
>>
>>83967912
Why does Laird hate all the cool female characters? Irma? Kitsune? Mona Lisa? I can understand Venus.
>>
>>83968363
Yet he's fine with all the Casey/April shipping?
>>
How come they've never mutated April?

They're mutate-happy as fuck basically everywhere but the movies

>/co/ praises Alopex but the character is boring and unremarkable. Just shallow shipping bait.

The thing that irks me most is there is potential to the character, and she showed most of it before she became a good guy. After that up until the latest issue she basically puppy dogged around and had cringe shipping shit with Raph 90% of the time. The other 10% was hanging out with Angel and Harold...which had potential for a mini series with those 3, I would have loved to see that, expand on 3 characters, have them bounce off of each other. And who knows if we'll ever get that chance again.

IDW has capitalized on Old Hob right at least, so there's that. I'd love it if Mutanimals got a full ongoing.

>thinking list and love are the same thing
What are you 12?
>>
>>83968481
Except April isn't a fucking side character.
>>
>>83968773
He's got a point though. April is far enough removed from the action that pairing her off or at least teasing romance is a lot easier than the turtles. Plus it gives a non-action oriented character like her more to do and say.

Because the Turtles aren't allowed to have nice things to happen to them.

>>83968507
She got mutated thrice in the 1987 show. She's immune to mutagen in the 2012 show because she's part Kraang.
>>
>>83969062
Except, you know, all the times she's with the fucking turtles on the front line.
>>
>>83965433
Do the turtles just have sex with each other out of desperation?

I wish I could find the damn music they played in Ninja Turtles: Secret of the Ooze when Tokka and Rahzar are out having 'fun'

I seriously doubt it.
Archie made that mistake by writing Ninjara out of their tmnt comics. The books died like 2 months after. Alopex brings in the waifu fags, would be stupid to get rid of her and lose that fanbase.

She was mutated in the 80's cartoon. Turned into a catgirl.
>>
>>83965757
In the cartoon or comic?
>>
>>83971166
Cartoons.
>>
>>83971282
Oh good, I don't have to care. Even if I did like her design.
The current cartoon is kinda REALLY awful in its handling of female characters in general anyway.
>>
I liked the nipples they gave to Ninjara
>>
>>83971649
What the fuck are you talking about?
>>
>>83968039
He hates Kitsune? Citation needed.
>>
>>83971703
Remember when April moved in to the sewer to evade the Foot Clan? And the show never even showed one second of that?
There really aren't any female characters that aren't just an object of affection/ownership. Even Karai exists to be either a point of conflict between Splinter/Shredder and to be a love interest to Leo. Oh and so April can have a designated girl fight.

Great designs tho.

Bros before hos.

How did she died?
>>
>>83971806
I'm talking about the classic Mona Lisa from the 80s. Not the Space Salamander from 2013.
>>
>>83972079
Turtle dickings.
>>
>>83972089
OH!
Well, never mind then! My bad!
But she didn't die, she just never appeared again like many many a one-shot character.
>>
>>83972116
Turtle dick is serious business!
>>
>>83972323
Just think of all the turtle necks.
