@kathaynesart I couldn’t help but color this shot! Your line work is SO IMPRESSIVE! As line art is something I struggle with a lot, I love to find chances to practice coloring when trying to think of a piece to draw. NOT MY ART! Line art by Kat Haynes.

How Leo became the least favorite son.

[indieyuugure]

Lol, when I first watched this episode I was so confused 😂 like, for some reason Splinter’s mom is shown as being a mutant rat even though that makes absolutely zero sense at all.

Also, why does neither Splinter nor his “mom” have whiskers in the second pic? [that’s gonna bug me…] XD

[jufengsstuff]

I think people who keep criticising Splinter and calling him a bad parent didn't understand his character or they didn't even tried to. So let's recap because honestly I think Rise!Splinter have one of the best back stories of all the versions.

THIS MAN IS TRAUMATIZED EVERYONE.

FIRST he saw his mother sacrifice herself because of the Hamato clan, because they had to do that to protect the world from shredder. What he was like 5? If this is not a trauma then Idk what is, I mean she disappeared in front of him while he was crying and praying her to stay (I'm not crying you are)

THEN he probably fought with his grandpa his whole life because of that and I can assure yall that constantly fighting with a family member is not good for mental health (I can't believe I have to clarify this).

THEN the woman he loved and wanted to marry tricked and kidnapped him and FORCED him to fight (and maybe kill) for like 10 years, just for her personal fun (no hate here we love a business woman) and I don't think this was good for his mental state.

THEN he was basically kidnapped again because a crazy (no hate here too we love our gay goat alchemist) yokai wanted to create bloody warriors with Lou Jitsu's blood. Testing all of this on children.

THEN AFTER ALL OF THIS HE WAS MUTATED. He started to live in a body he didn't recognize, he didn't know how to live with all these changes because he couldn't even come back to the human world now he was a rat and how was he supposed to ask for help? He couldn't. Because turning into a rat wasn't enough he was also SUDDENLY father of four little turtles.

If he wasn't ready to be a father and deal with normal children he surely didn't know how to deal with turtle toots at first.

So imagine the pressure this man have felt at some point.

All his life was a disaster after another disaster.

The loss, the fight, the betrayal.

He was used and suddenly he wasn't himself anymore. This man after all of this clearly have PTSD and Depression and you can't tell me otherwise because even if this is a funny show all the roads lead to Rome.

His back story is telling this if you listen to it. Splinter's mental health is not good and I'm not saying he was a good father because obviously is difficult to be a good father after all of this trauma and issues. But despite all he raised four special boys and he did it with LOVE more than anything. He did it despite everything he had been through.

And honestly I don't even remember a single scene where the turtles where kids and he wasn't there btw.

In the end: I love this rat man more than I love myself.

This was for day 2 of TMNTtober!

Favorite show? Rise! It really grew on me, especially with how relatable the brothers are

[cocogum]

Why don’t the turtles just use cloaking brooches??

It’s clear to say that the brothers in a half shell can be excruciatingly horrible at concealing their presence when fighting out of the sewers.

As much as we’d like to think that they’re experts at hiding in broad daylight or during nighttime, we can’t help but admit that in most of those times, they have either been unnoticed by sheer luck or have simply encountered some humans who seem to somehow not question their looks.

Sure, it must be extremely difficult to hide some parts of themselves while fighting in front of the public so some instances where they’ve been caught couldn’t have been avoidable.

But in some cases, there shouldn’t have been any excuses.

Whenever one of the brothers (or all of them) decides to go outside for whatever reason, they somehow do not catch any attention to themselves when an errand goes horribly wrong or if they simply would like to hang out away from the sewers for a change.

This is surprisingly not the issue here.

The new yorkers are just unaware for some reason.

No, the real problem here is why don’t the turtles use cloaking brooches.

Ever since I watched the thirty-first (18A) episode named “Operation: Normal”, I began to wonder why the turtles did not adopt the newest method of concealment.

In this episode, April desperately wishes to at least have a normal day without anything abnormal ruining it.

Leo, who opposes that idea of hers, claims that that “dream” would be impossible to grant since she has always been a huge magnet for craziness.

He also adds to his explanation that he, along with the rest of his brothers, cannot bring her to any human places due to how they physically look.

That last comment of his piqued my interest.

Because as soon as Leo bursts her bubble, she, later on, meets a young Yōkai by the name of Sunita who is inconspicuously hiding her true appearance thanks to a mystic brooch.

When the trio for this episode learns that the new girl was non-human this whole time, they learn that her disguise was actually done by a cloaking brooch which is a mystic device capable of hiding its user’s true appearance.

After meeting the slime Yōkai, you’d think that the turtles would have learned that there is a better way to completely mask themselves from the public and can now use the same mystic brooches to easily roam around the outside world with no difficulties.

Well… that’s not what they did.

They still proceeded as normal and kept hiding in clothes to hide their skins.

So in other words, even when they found an easier way to hide their appearances from the general public, they still chose to stick with the old method.

The fact that the Hamato family kept their old ways and did not even attempt to at least test one brooch bothered me so much.

There were so many instances in both seasons where I could have practically screamed my ears off at the fact that some situations could have been avoided if they had some of those brooches.

And so, I wondered if there was even a point to all of this.

Why would the turtles deliberately not choose an easier way of disguising themselves?

This question started popping up in my head from time to time until I finally came up with two reasons why the green idiots don’t use them.

1) They would lose their iconic images

I am aware that if the turtles did adopt that way of camouflage, then it wouldn’t feel like we would be watching TMNT anymore since their struggles with avoiding attention have always been a key factor in their characters.

Not to mention that it’s always entertaining to see what kind of clothes they’d pick to hide in.

Due to this problem, I would understand from a fan’s point of view why the story hasn’t taken this route.

On another hand, however, making the brothers use some magic brooches from time to time wouldn’t necessarily ruin their iconic images since Rise! did change some elements about the world like the existence of Yōkais, Draxum and Big Mama being two of the turtles’ enemies, Karai being their ancestor, a younger version of Baxter Stockman known as Stockboy, Splinter’s past, the Purple Dragons being evil tech teens, the Hidden City, and so much more.

Because it’s extremely odd to see no one in the Hamato family talk once about the possibility of using cloaking brooches as a practical technique.

Of course, I’m not suggesting that they should use cloaking brooches at all times since I would personally miss their old-school ways.

They could be able to at least only use cloaking brooches during hangouts.

But at the same time, it wouldn’t hurt to at least make an episode exploring this topic.

A part of me would like this since I would want to see what they’d look like if they took human forms.

That is IF they take human forms.

2) The cloaking brooches might change them into their original forms

The thing about these four mutant turtles that separates them from any normal mutant, is the fact that they weren’t human before they got mutated.

Mutants like Meat Sweats, Splinter, the Sando brothers, Warren Stone, the DIGG band, Ghostbear, Hypno-Potamus, Stanley, Repo Mantis, and Todd Capybara all used to be human before receiving the injection.

We all know that a cloaking brooch is used to cover the true appearance of its user but the way it hides the true form of the individual is rather odd.

For humans who get turned into mutants, the cloaking brooch will hide their current mutant appearances in the way that they used to look like when they were human.

Mutants like Meat Sweats and the Sando brothers are examples of this phenomenon.

For Yōkais, the cloaking brooch will hide their true forms with a human appearance that matches their physique OR it might just hide the original body with an object like a toy.

Yōkais like Sunita and Draxum are examples of this situation.

As for actual animals who get turned into mutants, the ability of the cloaking brooch seems to be blurry.

We don’t really know what could happen if mutated animals use a cloaking brooch since we’ve never actually seen a case like this one happening in the series before.

The objective of the cloaking device is to conceal the supernatural facade and replace it with a normal appearance.

So if the turtles and other mutated animals like Piebald were to ever use this mystic device, the chances of turning into their original animal forms or humans would be a 50/50 scenario.

This means it would be possible for mutated animals to have the appearance of what they once were (in addition to the brooch pinned on them) or to look like full-fledged humans.

This could also explain why the Hamato family doesn’t seem to be trying out the brooches: it might be impossible for them to appear normal because they are a special case so they do not want to risk it.

.

.

.

To conclude, we have two possibilities as to why they probably don’t use cloaking brooches.

The first is because the rottmnt team simply wouldn’t let the turtles use those in case they’d lose their iconic appearances.

The second is because there is a 50/50 chance that if they use cloaking brooches, then it might not work exactly like how they had thought it would.

However, there is a third possibility.

Third, the turtles are huge idiots for not using the best solution right at their disposal and are wasting a good opportunity to hang out in the open with their human friends.

(Ngl I legit think this is an actual possibility cuz these turtles act like imbeciles every five seconds-)

Those options seem plausible and easy to believe but it’s clear to see that we’ll most likely never get a straight answer from the rottmnt team regarding this topic.

(Btw u have no idea how hard I wanted to bash my head on a table ever since I saw Mikey buy Draxum a cloaking brooch to hide him from the Hidden City police. LIKE THE GUY KNEW ABOUT THOSE MYSTIC DEVICES THAT COULD HELP HIM AND HIS FAMILY ROAM OUTSIDE BUT NOOO THE DUMBASS DOESN’T THINK TWICE ABOUT IT AND JUST WASTES HIS MONEY BUYING ONLY ONE.)

A piece I’ve been working on for quite a while, and it’s FINALLY DONE! Enjoy these turtles!

My version of aged-up Hamato Atsuko from my rottmnt 'A mother's guidance AU' that I have introduced here. I basically just gave her more wrinkles and a different haircut tbh

Haven't done much with the AU yet 'cause I'm occupied with the animatic but the cogs are turning

[starry-kattz]

Another Hamato Ninpo headcannon because that's all my brain is good for these days: Splinter can't use his Ninpo independently, unless he's under very extreme duress. He spent so long rejecting the Hamato name that it's become a psychological wall, a block deep inside of him.

My philosophy class gave us an assignment to hold a seminar for a movie (yk the drill, have the class watch it and discuss questions you came up with) so obviously I chose rottmnt

However this stupid little movie is hitting too close to the feelings I can barely get my thoughts down and cohesive after rewatching it again TvT

If anyone’s curious on the notes I took, here’s a very blurry version
