Back to the Sewer

[lbd_nytetrayn]

No embedding, but at least I get to see the first ep. Yay for YouTube! Too bad embedding is disabled. Ah well.

Part 1

Part 2

...got a laugh out of Raph chewing out Donny here. Also, major points to Mikey.

Part 3

...that scene just before they go back reminds me, though, I never got ahold of a Fast Forward Leonardo figure. Only one I wanted, really. Ah well, maybe someday.

I know I'm going to be in the minority here, but I actually kind of like this. Well, so far, anyway. The data-battle stuff looks like it may be odd, but I don't think it's going to be an overbearing part of the series, from what I've seen. Could be wrong. But I'm glad they are back to the old setting and the old cast, like April and Casey and Hun. Also be interesting to see if they tie what we saw this ep in with later eps. Makes me think "Back to the Sewer" is a play on "Back to the Future" in that regard.

Here's hoping the series does well enough that they can go back to more complex designs. Still, for basing the look off the movie, this is ok, visually. I do kind of appreciate that they're at least trying to unify that much, since it seems the toys are doing the same thing.

FF figures are hard to come by these days. I'm happy I got movie Jungle Leo he's a million times better than the first wave one where he had the lame hang glider.

Eh, the plot so far seems alright. I don't like the change in animation, though.

Cute, though, how they used the Fast Forward openning. Kinda spoiled, though, by how CW4Kids advertises it as "THE ALL NEW TMNT: BACK TO THE SEWERS"...

Although it was a brief flashback, it still serves as a contrast in the difference of the character designs in FF and BttS.


Oh, and Splinter.... T_T

Ah, I didn't see the FF opening... I thought they just saved the BttS opening for the end, given the YouTube vids.

Ah, yeah, the uploader must've cut that out to save on time. But, yeah, after Viral revives, and before the episode title, they used the FF opening.

I didn't really care for it too much, but that's because we got stuck with the Gay Robot from the future and we lost Master Splinter. I miss the amount of detail that went into the 2003 show (which I recently torrented and started watching in preparation for Back To The Sewers). I hope we see a return of Non-Neon Blade Shredder soon, seeing as how he was in the last battle.

Still, GAY ROBOT. WHY. WHY TMNT WHY.
