Quotes:

Leonardo: And, even if the Shredder is still out there, no matter what he throws at us, no matter how he messes with our lives, nothing he does will change the most important thing: that we are family.
Michaelangelo: Ha ha ha. Leo, that was off the charts on the Sap-O Meter. You been watching way too many after school specials, bro.
Raphael: Just eat your S'Mores and keep quiet, Mikey. Leo's got a point.

A true classic revived

I'm so happy to see these cartoons again and as anime, when I was 5 years old I used to watch it every morning before school. I loved those cartoons, I even had many toys of them and my cousin had those toys too, I never forget the classic.

Leonardo: This is my favorite turtle because he's the leader and he fights with swords, and in the episode where he is attacked by Shredder during a training, it's very similar like in the first movie

Raphael: He always has a high temper and he is easily angered sometimes by Leo because of giving too much orders

Michaelangelo: He's the funniest of the team and he lives and loves to party, specially when it comes to eating too much pizza.

Donatello: The genius of the team, he makes me laugh a lot when his experiments and other inventions blow up when they fail.

Shredder (a.k.a Orouku Saki): The worst enemy of the turtles and Splinter, it is known that he killed Splinter's master Yoshi many years ago when they lived in Japan.

This show makes the classic live forever in the minds of Die-Hard fans like me, I will always like this true classic.
