Description LET'S GET THIS STRAIGHT:
Don't get me wrong. I'd like Fast Forward - hell I'd even love it as the previous seasons - IF they could fix that f***ing OOC-ness...

By that, I mean characters doing things that are not like of them. To name a few: Splinter being rude and letting the guys mess up the house when Serling was feeling troubled/pestered, Leo and that cursed line (above), and Mikey being WAY too obsessive with games (unless future games give off a type of radiation which causes drug-addiction-like effects in some way)...
Point two "It's ninja time" and point three don't matter as much. Those two are pretty much things I dug up. I just think ninjas don't need battlecries... (80's cartoons were hilariously messed up, so "turtle power" is an acception in my book)

Please... Please, don't try to prove me wrong? Even if you've got proof, don't tell me. Let ME look like the stupid one, okay? Nothing except the upcoming episodes can change my mind. This is what I think. *huge emphasis on "I"*

.....

Dispite the above, I don't think I have the right to say anything about Fast Forward. Heck, like Fast Forward OOC-ness is like to me, some people may feel that way with my EXTREMELY OOCed fanart. Gomenne~

Okay, about the "comic page".
I was inspired to draw a comic. It began to look bad after I started fine-lining. I got lazy with the lines. I began drawing in with pencils so I can change things easily. I look back at the messed up arm of Raph.
I start writing in captions. I doodle Mikey and Don. I doodle more stuff. Get stuff off my mind.
Hehe. It was fun drawing this.
Sorry about the exaggerated Fast Forward style. I wasn't trying to make fun of the style. (That's for bunny- I mean, Bishop)

~*In case you can't read my messy writing above:
L - Lookit me! Useless dramatic shading~*musical note*
Fuwa - 3 things I hate about FF:
OOC: Leo- Isn't it great that we get to walk around in the open? Even though we've been practicing ninjutsu for the past 15 years? (Especially me) and now we practically have no use for it?
Raph - It's ninja time
& making characters look DUMB...
M - GAMES! L - You tricked me... AGAIN! Bishop - *twitches whiskers*
Summer=Cat sheds=owner gets furballs
Best panel
L - like, eww!
omg MACHO POSE!
asondemasu (I'm fooling around)

FF好きなんですよ~。
ただ亀達がキャラらしくない事をしたり言ったりするのがものすごくがっかりするのです。むしろ悲しいよ!しかもオフィシャルのエピソードだし!
アニメはキャラクターが命ですからね。FFはそれを殺している気がしちゃいます。(ちょっと今の大げさすぎ)

まぁ、FFの事はあまり悪く言えませんけどね。なにしろ私の絵なんかぜんぜんキャラ間違ってるし。

I agree. So much.

Review mini-rant: I remember watching that episode with what's-his-face... Alien thief guy that always wore a hood. Memory spasm. Anyway, at the end of that episode the guys were like "Gasp! he tricked us?" And I was shouting "NO FRIGGIN DUH!" then alien guys comes BACK and it's like a rerun. The future makes you stupid.

your rant makes me laugh. And, it makes me want to write a rant of my own! I like FF. I was sad that they "cheapened" the art and made the world full of artificial, 2-dimensional neon brightness, because I had truly fallen in love with the depth and the darkness of the world in the first four seasons. It was really a shock to find that they had replaced that beautiful world with something so... cheap.

Still, there ARE some solid plots and some genuinely hilarious moments in FF, and for that, I can accept it as part of the series. For the most part, it's still entertaining and it's still the turtles and I still love 'em. The thing that I disapprove of the most is actually their made-up cuss word of the future, "dreck". I can handle the occasional "Oh shell" or "what the shell?" but in FF, they overuse it and it bothers me. But that clever little fake cuss word "dreck" REALLY makes me angry every time I hear it. I'm just not a fan of cussing in a kid's show.

It also gets on my nerves that Starla has a crush on Cody, and Splinter and the turtles are all totally supportive of their cute little relationship. April/Casey was one thing because they were both adults. In FF, Cody's younger than the turtles. If HE's allowed to have a girlfriend (of a different species no less!) then isn't it time for the turtles themselves to get a little lovin' ?? I mean, if the show's gonna go there, with the awkward teen romance and all, why not let one of the turtles have a girlfriend, instead of wasting everyone's time with Starla/Cody? Jeesh. If it was up to me, Starla'd be a little older and it'd be Starla/Donny. ^___^

And Bishop does look like a bunny. snorff!

Yeah, FF did got all slumpy/lazy, compared to the previous TMNT 2k3 episodes. They're supposed to go back home for the 2008 season.

What fans can do is continue to purchase merchandise, watch eps on tv, and do whatever we can to keep the money flowing to 4kids... because money talks in the business world, sadly.

Yeah...I like Fast Forward (it's a guilty pleasure ) But I totally agree with you on the OOC -ness. Raphael seems so...silly sometimes. He's not my favorite, but it does kinda bug me. Splinter tends to be silly at times too. Ohh well, the Lost Season is coming back in September or something like that.

I agree with you totally about the FF season. It has so much potential that it's a shame the people in charge are making it suck. I want to slap someone every time I hear "It's ninja time!"

Well, I don't mind Fast Forward. I haven't noticed the OOC-ness 'til you pointed it out. I must be slow...

I like the varying thickness of the lines in your markers, it makes everything look dynamic. I also love reading the little comments you placed on the side. XD

HOLY CRAP, BISHOP DOES LOOK LIKE A BUNNY NOW!!! I honestly have no idea where that came from! Are these new animators outta their skulls or did Bishop try some freakish genetic experiment in the past that had the main focus of trying to combine a rabbit's DNA (USAGI'S?!!!?! ) with his own?! THE CRAP IS WRONG WITH THOSE PEOPLES?!!?! *sigh* Man, I agree with you, Turtle Freak; they need to get the "Ninja Tribunal" season back on TV and then come up with a good excuse to continue the old series despite certain events in that so-called "lost season" that would be spoilers if I revealed them here so I won't. XD Neener. Anywho, I much preferred the old seasons, but, since my stupid cable company won't let us get 4Kids, I can't get my Ninja Turtle fix no matter what, so I just watch what I can find online. *:shake fist: at cable company* I guess I'm okay with Fast Forward, but there's no way it matches up with the old series. Leo's all lazy (Tsk, tsk, tsk, couldn't even sense Sh'Okanabo coming up behind him in the movie theater, for cripe's sake! I can only imagine how mortified the Ancient One would be if he could see the dumb Cumquat/Monkey-Turtle now), Raph's the comic relief ( >A< I HATE the future!!), Mikey's got a drug-addiction-esque addiction to video games (even worse than before; apparently he's in some kind of denial without his precious comic books to keep him company), and Don's just always all " OOOOOOOH, it's totally awesome technology from the fuuuuuuuuuuuuutuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuurrrre!!!" And, on top of all that, MASTER SPLINTER ISN'T DOING A COTTON-PICKIN' THING ABOUT IT!!! RAAAAAAAAAAAAAARGH!!! *pummels an effigy of FF Master Splinter*

. . . . . . . Sorry. Now I'm on my own anti-FF rant. My bad. I'll just leave before my big fat mouth gets me in trouble. Later!

Well gee, give them a break will ya? I mean they've just saved the world a few times. Defeated both Shredders. Went through grueling training at the Tribunal to manifest the dragons from their chi. They've been working hard for a society that cares nothing about them.
Personally, I think they deserve a break. At least FF still has it's conflicts.

MBlackwood In reply to lloydharry [2007-07-14 14:36:21 +0000 UTC]

You have a point, but I think that, since no hints have been made that the turtles in FF have their mystical chi powers or recall having said powers, the FF season occurs immediately after the fourth season and immediately before the "Ninja Tribunal" season. I think they would at least go out of their way to mention it once or twice, if not a little more regularly than that. I mean, they saved the world from an Age of Darkness, for cripe's sake! One would think at least Mikey (being the boastful soul that he is) would brag about it a little less than every half-hour if it indeed happened after the "Ninja Tribunal" arc.

But you are right; at least each episode has an exciting conflict of some kind. It could be worse. I think my favorite episode (conflict-wise) from the few I've seen is the first appearance of Viral when the guys got trapped inside the new technologically advanced dojo. I dunno; there's just something interesting about a computer virus gone crazy that I seem to be attracted to. Don't ask me why, cuz I sure as shell don't have a clue.

Just to clarify, it is true that the Lost Season is Season 5 and FF is Season 6. If you watch the Lost Season on Youtube to the end and the FF episode "The Journal", you'll know.

Loving the dramatic shading Leo! He looks so good! And the "best panel" is really good too, nice action and stuff going on, real drama without being silly And thanks for the laugh with bunny Bishop and such, lol! I agree with your rant. I do watch FF though, because I need my fix of TMNT and there's no other way to get it, heh, but how I wish it had more....quality. I miss the guys.

Turtlefreak121 [2007-07-13 11:18:03 +0000 UTC]

I agree with everything you've said about Fast Forward - I just want the old TMNT back, the way we grew to love them. Shadowy, edgy, well drawn, and complete both in personal character and family values.

Great job, Fuwa - love the comic and rant Awesome!

Forget it... There's too much shit wrong w/ FF to even put effort into it... I jus watch it cause it's the guys.. *shrug*

FF is very....ummm...colorful. I like the look of the show but it does have some serious corny issues. "It's ninja time!" being one of them. I was brought up on the 80's toon so FF really doesn't bother me too much.

I like where they dressed up in those shiny tux things. They looked spiffy Only weird thing was you couldn't see their shells Those tuxes sure hid alot of "shell bump"...

Oh! and I really like Leo's useless dramatic shading. It's purty

FREAKfreak [2007-07-13 01:14:07 +0000 UTC]

TMNTの公式の世界はホントに広いですね。この広さが魅力の1つだとおもいます。確かに原作のシリアスな設定は凄く大好きで大事ですけれど、旧アニメやNM、映画1、2、3、ライブやミュージックビデオ、その他各種公式作品を見ていると、FFのキャラ設定などはかわいいもんだなーと見えてくるわけです。新アニメや映画4(TMNT)が大好きな人にとってはFFは酷い作品かもしれませんけれど、個人的にはFFも亜種としてとても楽しく観賞できる作品だと思いますねー!まるで同人誌見てるみたいで。FFの設定より酷い作品て沢山ありますしね。私がこだわりがなさ過ぎるんだろうかー。日本語版新アニメ(2K3)も最初は戸惑いましたが、最近はヘンテコなアドリブや笑いを誘う次回予告で大喜びして観ちゃってます。こだわりって大事だけれど、それを無くすと何でも面白く感じちゃうもんですね。
