Headcanon for Why MA Raph Lost His Memories
The memories Raph lost during the Mutant Apocalypse are associated by bad or traumatic moments in his life.
I was rewatching Mutant Apocalypse and kind of noticed something. In the beginning, we see that Raph remembers his brothers but not Splinter. Same with Chompy and most likely Mona.
I think after witnessing the Mutagen bomb, his brain was so tired of the mental trauma that it sort of did a reboot. But, only the good memories stayed. Like deleting files in your computer.
Splinter was one of them because his death affected Raph then actually expressed. He saw his dad get killed and couldn’t save him. I think a part of him just wanted to forget.
Chompy and Mona got erased because they are sort of associated with space. Season 4 was not a great place mentally for the characters. Along with everyone, he had this weight on his shoulders to save the Earth, most importantly his loved ones. Plus, Raph constantly stated that he hated space and would get sick.
But, his love for Chompy was so strong, Raph remembered him at first glance.
What do you guys think? 😊❤️
