The episode starts a recap of the 1st episode with NYC flooded, Godzilla-sized Shredder getting easily defeated, Turtles going Voltron, bouncing boobs, and self-sacrifice in your precious innocent childhood cartoon. Most of these events wouldn’t even matter in this episode since it’s a whole new adventure. The classic cartoon really didn’t have continuity. It be weird if the every episode of the show had recaps of Shredder’s plot of steal energy source of the week, meeting a mutant they won’t see for another season, or encountering a lame forgettable gangster.
Well we're going to see more cussing in this 2-episode special based on your innocent childhood cartoon.
Admit, you read these lines with the Nesquik Bunny and Uncil Phil in your head and it killed your Childhood.
From what I hear, the people who translates this will spice things up and add curses words that wasn't in the actual Japanese version. I find it pointless, especially since alot people have precious memories of the classic cartoon and they can't imagine them acting like sailors.
The TMNT just arrived in Japan from an airport. For some reason, none of the humans on the flight were freaked out or something. Mikey is all excited but Splinter remind all of them that this isn’t a pleasure cruse and they been sent to Japan help a friend of Splinter's.
He must thinking about Pizza with rice or sushi as toppings
The Turtles also boarded a taxi and the cab driver didn’t freak out that giant turtles and a rat were entering his car.
That's not how you ride a taxi
So uhhh...How come they're not wear any disguises? They normally do other series.
I think anyone can easily tell they're not human.
Why wasn't this in the new movie? It shouldn't been deleted.
Meanwhile at the Technodrome in Dimension X.
Wait a minute, the last episode had the Technodrome on Earth? When do these anime episodes take place? Well anyways, Krang is screaming on the top of his lungs. It's bad enough his Japaneses voice is so high-pitch. *Sighs* Our poor ears. Even Shredder and his two goons can’t handle it.
Krang stops and tells Shredder that an another Mutastone is located in Japan. Shredder doesn’t want to see anymore Mutastones since they turn him into Godzilla and stuff.
Krang continued screaming and Shredder was force to agree to make Krang stop. You can see from the pictures that Shredder has new a set of armor(To match his new toy at the time). It seems like a fully metal armored Shredder existed here long before his 2003 counterpart did.
The Turtles are enjoying the ride on a bullet train. Splinter again remind them that this isn’t a pleasure cruse and they are on a mission. Splinter got the info from a scroll he received and it simply says, “Help”.
Shredder and his two goons come through a portal and landed on train tracks. Suddenly, a bullet train came and ram into the baddies.
React in Loony Tune Style!!!
The flying Shredder passes by their windows.
Uh Raph, You know that Saturday Morning Cartoons are not allow to mention God or anything else religious.
The villains stop flying and landed on top of one of the train cars. The Turtles went topside to meet with the baddies. Shredder heard from the Turtles that he is in Japan and he gets all misty eyed that he is in his old country.
Didn’t he try to destroy the entire planet in the last episode?
Bebop and Rocksteady fired their lasers at the Turtles and for some reason, they acted like cowards and ran away like Loony Tunes characters.
Gee guys, man up will you. You never acted like this before.
Out of nowhere, an army of ninjas jumped 100 feet in the air and safely landed on the train’s roof. They threw hundreds and hundreds of ninja stars at the baddies, causing them to fly off the train.
Enter Sub-Zero and a bunch of Noob Saibots
So is your boss you idiots
All the good guys got inside the train and the Sub-Zero look-alike introduce himself.
April records him on her camera and he gets all camera shy. I figure he slash the camera for the sake of secretly, not get embarrassed.
It’s strange everyone is calling him and his crew, “Real Ninjas” What about Shredder, Splinter or the Turtles? Did everyone forget? I know they don’t hide in the shadows like their other counterparts but still....
"And we're not"?
Kinzo takes them to a magic mirror at a shrine. He explains in a overly excited tone that someone is planning to steal the mirror and he wants the gang to help protect it. Aren’t most ninjas are suppose to be cool and quiet sounding when they talk? I don't think this is how they're suppose to sound.
I kid you not, he did sound overly excited in this sentience.
The turtles easily figure out that Shredder is plotting to steal it. Donnie takes time to think and I swear, the camera stayed on him for 5 long seconds of just him thinking to himself. Did the director forgot to cut or something?
It sure felt like a minute
The loud ninja explains that backstory of the Magatamas.
Quick, use the Magatamas to summon Gamera, the 5th Ninja Turtle. Venus and Zack don't count.
The turtles asked what Magatamas spell in Japanese. Don't they mean in English? They learn an alternative name for them is Mutastones. Umm.. those don’t seem like mutastones, they look completely different than how they look in episode 1.
Kinzo gives the Turtles some armor for them to wear.
A rare reaction from Splinter
I know they don't cover that much. From what I remember, the armor on the toys have slots to help click-on the actual armor you will see later in the episode.
The next morning, the turtles got woke up by annoying laughter from a ghost. I swear, this guy does nothing but laugh every time we see him. He's taken over the annoying astronaut's place as my least favorite.
Kinzo tells the others that this guy is Yukimura. Kinzo’s ancestor imprisoned this evil spirit in ancient times. They never explain the backstory of the annoying ghost other than he got imprisoned. I’m guess his crimes is annoying people with his laugh.
Shredder barges in the front doors…Only to see the turtles are too pre-occupied with the ghost.
The turtles now notice they’re here and they clash.
Kinzo went behind the mirror and pulled a chain. This causes the entire shrine to explode.
And they all died...
or not.
Out of the remains of the building came a giant castle. The loud ninja explains that this is the hidden fortress of their ninja tribe.
The Turtles plan to follow them
Japanese made it sound like, TAR-DAR POW-WA
The Turtles and the overly excited ninja ran up the wall as well, but all that running got them tired and they start climbing instead. I know in the American series, that they use suction cups to help climb, so why aren’t they using them?
Leo asked Kinzo a question while climbing, about the inside of the castle.
The passing crow mocks the lame ninja.
The turtles jump into a window opening while Kinzo keeping climbing. Inside they encounter Krang. Seems like Krang for once decided to get off his lazy butt(does he have one) and actually help Shredder.
Shredder gets to the roof and see the annoying ghost point to the mirror.
Will you quit laughing
Couldn't agree more
Before Shredder could get the mirror, Kinzo and his ninja squad throws hundreds of mirrors around. Making it hard for the tin can to find the one he needs. Shredder than asked Kinzo…
One of the lamest ninjas ever.
Ola Amigo
Get up on the Hydra's back
Tigatron Maximize
World's biggest shoes.
Bebop attacks with his Great Killer Whale Wave! Rocksteady attack with Metallical Snaker! and sends snakes
Ack!!...This look like tentacle porn. Thanks alot Japan. It's bad enough you created Transformers Kiss Players
Shredder attacks with Tiger Break! Cause only in anime you shout your attacks.
Krang appears and takes the mirror but Sub-Zero and his army of Noob Saibots overpower the pink brain.
Kinzo throws it to the Turtles. They use the remaining stones on the mirror to summon the guardians of hope to help them.
Volvagia icy twin bro
Remember to link this with the Final Attack Materia
Weren't you in that Toho movie with Cesar Romero
Weirdest Beetle I ever seen
I know this is copying off a show called Saint Seiya. No, I never watched the series. Most of my knowledge came from a Transformers/Saint Seiya parody. I think remember the series aired in the afternoon back in the 90s but I didn't actually watch it.
Here's the awesome Transformers/Saint Seiya parody. Kinzo pointed out they can only be in these forms for six minutes.
Didn't Splinter had something like that last episode?
Mikey attacks with his Beef Bee-tonic! Raph with his Phoenix Bomber! Donnie with Lio Magnado! Leo with Thundra Tonic Buster!
Shredder try to run away to the portal to Dimension X
Before he jump into the portal, he and Leo shoot anime power lasers at each other. When Shredder’s anime power laser began to overpowered Leo, Shredder and his goons suddenly reverted back to their regular forms since they were in these forms a little longer than the turtles. The baddies manage to take three of the stones and leave. The annoying ghost suddenly vanish.
The Turtles promise to the ninjas that they will return the three stones back to the mirror and all of the sudden, the giant castle start collapsing and they all died....
Well I seriously doubt that, it was more of a comical scene.
Well we got this unresolved storyline of Shredder having the stones. It should go with all the Ninja Turtles stuff we didn't get like The Forever War, The Shredder Wars, Triceraton Shredder, Nightmares Recycled, most Mirage stories after the Viacom bought the rights. I swear, this episode felt more like a season premiere with the gang getting powers up and spending a season of getting back those three stones.
This episode wasn’t as quite all over the top in it’s animeness like the previous episode. Most of the turtles going all Saint Seiya was only in the last five minutes.
See ya later...
