Rise of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: “The Evil League of Mutants”

The plot episode I was expecting! Baron Draxum sings! Things move forward! We find out what the big deal about Lou Jitsu is (mostly), and the turtles give Splinter a big speech about how he’s their father which was something I was sort of on the fence about. I usually like Splinter as a story about adoption but they kind of went to a weird place with him in this series.

A very very weird place.

I kept thinking that those crab people reminded me of evil versions of the PSA guys from this animation by SmallBu. I think it was the posing.

I figured Todd was a villain after the ‘milking puppies’ thing. I was right.
