My Version of the Hamato Family

Hi everyone! Thank you for reading and liking part one. It made my day!

So, this is where I shine in writing. I love creating characters and their backstory; it’s so fun. I think it is more important to focus on characters than the plot since a character can create the storyline- well at least for me.

I’m excited to share! Hope you enjoy!

Comment your thoughts! It would be cool to read them! 😁

……………………..

 Leonardo:

We’re starting with the usual leader-in-blue!

Although I adore Leo, his “perfect” personality can get a little boring. His versions usually have flaws, though they are the kind that makes you sympathize with him rather than feeling indifferent like with Raph’s anger issues.

Season 1 Leo would be a toned-down Rise Leo. He can be cocky when he succeeds over his brothers and would jokingly comment how he is Splinter’s favorite. However, it doesn’t come without hard work. Leo trains the most out of his brothers and spends most of his time studying fighting techniques. He is not naturally talented in ninjitsu like the past incarnations. Also, Leo’s motivations for training very hard and wanting to be leader is more for himself than anything.

Compared to his brothers, Leo was relatively average. Donnie was extremely smart, Mikey had his kind and joyful soul, and Raph was naturally a great fighter. Leo felt left out and decided that training to be a hero would be his way of standing out. He also believed that being special like his brothers was the only way to get Splinter’s attention; and it kind of worked. With all the progress Leo made, Splinter praised him, and they had a way to connect.

Around the beginning of S1(maybe ep. 5), Leo became the leader though how was different. Instead of Splinter deciding, the brothers did; the explanation was the turtles were a team and should make a consensus as one. This news made Leo ecstatic; he was finally living his dreams. Even so, he didn’t realize the baggage and responsibility a leader had to shoulder. Over the course of the story Leo grows as a great leader and fighter.

The Karai/Leo subplot will follow the 2003 version. He is convinced that Karai is a good person and tries to have her switch sides. There will be romantic feelings but its not the main motivation for both of their actions. I can’t say too much since this plot revolves around Karai more.

   Donatello:

Donnie is a blend of 2003/12 versions. He is intelligent with an extremely high IQ and was a gifted child. However, his intelligence came with a cost; making connections with his brothers and father was really tough for him because of their different interests. This left him withdrawing from everyone and focusing on his inventions. His social skills evolve once the turtles visit the city and meet April. The increasing danger of the Kraang further builds his relationships since communication is important in teamwork, and Donnie’s talent in inventing grew more in the spotlight.

Because of her fascination with Donnie’s smarts and inventions, April and Donnie become good friends as the story continues. Donnie also gets close with April’s best friend, Irma since they are science lovers. At first, Casey irritates him as they have clearly different personality; Casey’s impulsive and extroverted attitude conflicting with Donnie’s plan-based mindset.

Donnie’s love for his family is showcased after witnessing a terrifying, apocalyptic future where his family suffers. Paranoia sets in. His work to calculate the cause of this terrible, and its solution leads Donnie to rarely take care of his needs. He has to learn to trust in others instead of doing things alone.

 Raphael:

Unlike Leo, Raph is instantly gifted in fighting. He has more physical strength than his brothers and would constantly beat them in practice. Since childhood, Raph was Splinter’s “favorite” in the dojo and that definitely got into the red-banded turtle’s head. He would brag to his brothers and jokingly poke fun at their techniques. It wouldn’t affect anyone. Except for Leo.

Raphael’s ego started taking hits once Leo caught up to him and beating him in practice once in a while. It turned into anger after noticing Master Splinter praising Leo more. The tension soured their brotherhood. Unlike most versions, Raph’s anger is fueled by insecurity. He believes that fighting is the only thing he is good at and will get territorial if his spotlight is threatened.

Throughout the story, he learns to move on from his demons and realize his worth.

Family is important to Raph. He can be hard on his brothers yet will do anything to keep them safe, especially Mikey- his positivity must be protected. Casey and Raph become best friends for their similarities and love for fighting- they are impulsive bros.

 Michelangelo:

Mikey’s role is to be the positive and glue of the team. He loves to make people happy and would always do something goofy or kind to do that. His family have nothing bad to say about their youngest member and are very protective of him. The youngest brother doesn’t take ninjitsu as seriously as skateboarding, dancing, or just general fun. Though, he will be serious when the situation calls for it, such as the fate of his family and the world.

Although being an open ear to anyone, Mikey is not open to expressing his negative emotions due to his fear of damaging the family dynamic. It is noticeable when he is upset because he jokes more often and not focus. A lesson he must learn is to accept the good and the bad. Mikey can be reckless, mostly when his brothers rarely let him participate in missions. He wants to prove to his family that he is strong enough to protect himself and others. Reading people is his best skill and takes great pride in it, usually taking on the role of a therapist.

 Splinter/Hamato Yoshi:

I really wanted to take Splinter’s role in the Shredder’s descent to evil in the grayer area. He is usually the victim/innocent party of the story, which can get boring after a while.

Hamato Yoshi was born as the heir to Hamato Clan and childhood best friend of Oroku Saki. The Hamato and Foot clan were allies for centuries and would usually fight by each other’s side. Matters changed when the Foot’s beliefs grew more sinister. This left the Hamato Clan to eradicate their former ally. Splinter saved Saki before he could be killed, though, it came with consequences. Oroku Saki vowed to exact revenge for his fallen home. Growing up, Splinter became one of the strongest martial artists in Japan and married a woman named Tang Shen, later becoming a father to a girl. His world ended once he saw his clan destroyed and his family killed by the renewed Foot Clan.

Yoshi decided to move to New York and forget his old life. Years later, the martial artist noticed strange people caging defenseless animals. He would fight them long enough to protect four humanoid turtles, deciding to keep them after a moment of compassion. Splinter would continuously fight the strange men until a strange liquid turned him into a rat. This turning point banished Splinter and the turtles to the sewers for protection.

Splinter equally loves his sons. He would always make sure to give them equal amounts of love to avoid lasting issues. Though, he has made some mistakes. Emotions were rarely discussed because of Splinter’s unintentionally withdrawn attitude. The rat master wouldn’t instantly notice problems between his sons, and usually didn’t know how to resolve them. No matter what, Splinter is proud of his children and would do anything to keep them safe; sometimes not realizing that it could hurt them.

Hamato Yoshi’s guilt and trauma over the terrible moments in his life would be the main focus of his development.

April Kunoichi Rant

I’ve seen people complain how April became a kunoichi so fast; I was one as well. But, I just watched City at War(the episode where she becomes a kunoichi), and I missed a detail the first few times I watched it.

Around the very beginning, April is reminiscing about how much she has grown since the first season, and is very happy that she is a kunoichi. Then, Raph mentions that April needs more training to be a full kunoichi; she is only in the beginner levels.

This makes sense.

In the first season, the turtles are considered ninjas but still had a lot to learn. That wouldn’t be different for April.

Which TMNT 2012 Turtle VA Do You Want to Meet the Most?

I would love to meet every voice actor in TMNT 2012, but if I had to pick the one I want to meet the most, Rob Paulsen would be my pick. I love all of Rob's voice roles like Carl from Jimmy Neutron, Peck from Back at the Barnyard, and especially Donnie. Plus, Rob is such a sweetheart and I just want to give him a big hug.

Greg Cipes is my second pick because I love Beast Boy, Mikey, and Kevin Levin.

Seth Green is my third because of Leo and Monty Monogram.

Sean Astin is last.

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? 😊❤️

Rasey 👁👁

2012 Raph x Casey Doodles

The hardest part was figuring out which rasey 🤔

My Whiteboard doodles from today !

Thank you to everyone that joined today ! I'm so sorry that I canceled yesterday, I really wasn't expecting to feel as shitty as I did,, 😭

The Mutant Mayhem / TOTTMNT + Ladybug and Cat Noir crossover belongs to @justmaiidraws ! ✨

The 2012 Elemental doodles (Images 4 / 5 / 6 / and 8-) belong to @teks-emporium ! ✨

HEHEHEHEGEHHEHEHEHEHEGEG🩷💘💝💖💝💘💝💞💖🩷💘💞💘💞

Some doodles I made of @teks-emporium 's Adventure Time + 2012 crossover (Which specifically revolves around the Elemental Miniseries-) ! 😌✨

FUFK YEAH IT'S NEW AU TIME

Adventure Time slaps and its Elements miniseries goes hard so I did THIS

hi. small 2012 sketch dump be upon you

A small comic revolving around the concept of Casey being toxic in his own way- 🖤💜

I don't know what unearthly force compelled me to do this comic out of nowhere, but I did- LMAO || I wish I could've set this situation up better (Like showing Donnie behaving in similar ways he did with April toward Casey instead-) and I was going to do one more panel to concluded this better (Where the Brothers + April don't find either of them at Casey's apartment and it turns out the left together in the Shellraiser or something like that-) but I'm super tired,, 😔👍

I really wanted Casey's actions (His lack of response to his texts / missed calls, the way he hovers by the door just listening, and lastly his failed attempt at hiding his smile at the end-) to reflect (what I feel would be) his toxicity in this relationship dynamic with Donnie- How he craves the attention, at the expense of Donnie's well being and the worry of his friends. How addicting it would be for him to be the center of someone's universe and knowing it - Honestly, I wouldn't be surprised if he would do whatever he needed to do to ensure Donnie's attention stayed on him, you know? 👀✨

Just something I like to think about sometimes ! (This also balances things out in my opinion, since I dislike the concept of Donnie being "the problem" alone- You know?) || Also I deliberately tried to make Donnie's dialogue in this comic as creepy (Or just uncomfortable / awkward-) as possible, especially in the last panel- 👍✨

Thank you to everyone who joined me for the Whiteboard Fox session ! It was super fun and I loved seeing all of your guys drawings in real time ! 🥺🫶✨

These were my doodles ! I'll include the other in reblogs !

Some 2012 Raphril watching True Crime together ! Then I drew some Stalker 2012 Donnie w/ Casey and finally some toxic 2012 Casey w/ Donnie (Since I don't think all of the toxic behavior should fall on Donnie-) ! Then I tried to draw a bit of my 2012 Portal AU (As you can see, I didn't get very far- Lmao) ! After that, I did some Adventure Time AU Raphril ! ✨

Thanks to everyone who joined !! I'll host another WhiteboardFox soon !

@teks-emporium @nox-icate @vylantrophi 🫶✨

(Whoever drew the third image, please reach out to me so I can tag ! 😭🙏)

I finally drew some of your April @doughliciousfrosting ! There's still more to come though ! I promise ! 😤✨

Also Vylantrophi, don't you EVER stop drawing Donnie as a certified hater- The hater gene is strong in their blood, I'm telling you- /hj LMAO

(I forgot how challenging it is to draw on WhiteboardFox, like damn,, Lmao)

My Halloween post from last year ! ⚰️🎃✨

(I'm not waiting until October to post this- LMAO / Also, I'm sorry it's kind of obvious I had to cut corners in certain places, I was cutting it really close to Halloween last year so I just wanted to finish the video- 😭👍 || Old content-)

Fuckers be posin like they're in an album cover

More Tokyo Ghoul AU stuff hegeggege,,,

+ Individual sets

Space Arc doodles even though I quite literally loathe drawing their astro suits / gear- 🙂👍 Lmao

April and Raph do not bring out the pacifist in Fugitoid- 😔 || Also I think 2012 Y'gthba ("Mona Lisa") and Leo are an underrated friendship honestly- They could've been really cool imo ! ✨

(This is technically 2012 Raphril honestly, anytime I draw them in the same space it's basically Raphril content- /hj ❤️💛)

So I'm finally saying fuck it and just posting what I have for this AU, which are just sketches of ideas here and there

Anyway, this is my tmnt 2012 x Tokyo Ghoul AU! I'm still working out some of the basics but so far I've got a solid grasp of what I want this to be

Hope y'all enjoy the nuclear bomb of angst I just dropped lol

Okay, I made more reaction images/memes👀

You were asking for this, right?

OK so lemme just—

I know this seems like a wild take but I stick by it. On the surface Raph and Shredder may seem very similar but I truly think Donnie has a bit more in common with him instead

The only thing Raph and Shredder have in common, to me at least, is rage.

Rage isn't all who Shredder is. Rage isn't all who Raph is either, but their anger is different. Raph's more emotional in his anger, more reactive. If someone pisses him off he shows how he feels immediately. He's not the type to bide his time and form a plan. He's also not a very good leader, as seen when he froze up in New Girl in Town.

But Shredder is.

He's cold and calculated in his plans even when blinded by rage and seeking revenge. He's extremely cunning and dedicated to his goals and will stop at nothing to achieve them, even if it involves taking the life of someone who's wronged him, no matter what anyone says or what he has to do.

So, does that remind you of anyone?

Out of all the turtles, Donnie, as far as I know, is the only one to have an arc that revolves around him trying to kill someone out of revenge for a past incident and having to be taught otherwise. Leo hasn't, Mikey hasn't, and Raph hasn't either. From what I know, it's only been Donnie.

And of course I can't talk about parallels without bringing up the love triangle between him, April and Casey.

It's obvious that Donnie doesn't like Casey at first, because he's jealous. Jealous because of his feelings for April and towards himself and how Casey manages to tear everything apart. He saw him as a love rival and feared for the day that April chooses Casey over him, so he lashed out.

Shredder was jealous because Tang Shen chose Splinter over him. He was consumed by his feelings and lashed out as well, although he had more fatal consequences.

Thankfully the love triangle never got to the point of murder obviously, but Donnie and Casey very much fought a lot because of their affection for April, just like Shredder, Splinter and Tang Shen.

Admittedly a lot of this is a reach and maybe a bit surface level but I've wrote enough and figured I should get this off my chest somehow °3°

I'm kinda in the mood for some 12! Donnie angst so I wanna get the ball rolling by mentioning how I think he has more similarities with the Shredder than Raph does :p

…I’M SORRY.

ARE YOU REALLY JUST GONNA DROP THIS IN MY ASKBOX AND WALK AWAY?

i never thought i needed raph cosplaying alice until i got raph cosplaying alice

A few @/deeppink-man expression memes I did of the turtles to get a better feel of my style. Might do more eventually

2012 Leo and Raph are twins. Talk to a wall

Lmao valid

He's really sick.

Based on this hard-hitting scene in Spy Kids 2

God I love that movie.

We have Shinobu with 2003 turtles, Kanae with 2014/2016 turtles, now I present you Kanao with 2012 turtles

Another screenshot redraw! I love Half-Shall Heroes: Blast to the Past!! I wish there were more short movies like it out there 🥺

Version without the weapons ⬇️

I hope you like it 💜🧡💙❤
