Don't really know what to say about that one. Just a baby Raph.

Staring at you.

i watch tmnt 2012 exclusively because of raph. no further questions, please

I think one of the main reasons Raph x Mona Lisa in TMNT 2012 were so well received by fans is because they were never the main focus of the plot.

Donnie’s crush on April was a well known part of his character and motivation especially in the earlier seasons. Leo’s feelings for Karai connects to the drama with the Foot Clan and the war against Shredder (and the Splinter thing but that’s another can of worms I’m not opening rn). Often there were episodes where these pairings were the focus that drove the plot along.

Raph and Mona Lisa were more of a background decor, not the main focus of episode plots, maybe their relationship and dynamic with one another will help move some scenes/conflicts along (EX: the Dregg betrayal and escaping the ice planet), but overall they weren’t the main driving focus for the series as a whole unlike the others. They were just a fun cute couple we got to be a fun cute couple while all the craziness happened around them.

As much as I would’ve loved more Raph x Mona Lisa focus in the 2012 series, especially with giving them more story and development in their relationship, I also think that if the writers did give them more focus, I’m scared fans would’ve thought they were over staying their welcome. It’s a weird tear between “we got just enough” but also “not enough of them” at the same time in regards to Raph x Mona Lisa.

The general consensus of the 2012 TMNT fandom towards the ‘relationships’ the writers made:

(I was gonna make the last one like Mikey x Renet or Mikey x Shinigami, but I think those where received indifferently)

I don't know how many of the Turtles are artists, and I don't know if I should've included MM/TOTTMNT Leo, but this argument will be about these two!

Opinions are welcome.
