1) TMNT 1987- Not much of action but it's alright, not too violence and good sence of humor. April and Casey are adult but No capril. Casey doesn't have much role in this series and he's hunting mutant! But he's alright. Donatello's role doesn't get much attention and have no special feeling for April but friend

2) TMNT FILMS 1/2/3 - Live-action, too realistic, don't want kids get confusing and April and Casey are adult and they are couple. Donatello and April are just good friends.

3) TMNT COMIC - Read some web and conversation with other fans, Casey and April adult, couple and last married. But the story is dark, really dark. Feel stress/presure so its like not much of good event. (Can't afford to buy comic because don't selling in asian)

4) TMNT 2003-2009 - again April and Casey are adult and together and married. Concept story is totally different from 1987 series. This one is more action, adult attitude, violence, dark and less good moment which it's fine. Donatello and April are like brother and sister shared same interest nothing more. Casey is really cool! Much more friendly better than 1987 version.

5) TMNT 2007 FILM - same reason as 2003-2009 series

So as you can see there's NO apritello at all. I admitted that I liked capril back there. And I used to wonder why put adult April hanging out with teenagers and thought it will be SUPER SWEET to see teenager April being couple with one of turtles after I last watch 1987 series. When I first saw 2003 series I knew right away there will be capril and have against it. I did had that old feeling I had about teenager April being couple with one of turtles but that was a second. See after all this time April has always be adult so no romance feeling with turtles which its cool.

Until 2012 series! Saw Donatello fell in love with April! Brought back that long lost feeling back from grave! I have never try to force people to like apritello. Just want to stop saying terrible/horrible thing about apritello that's all. We ALL known casey being paired with April is a sacred tradition. Donnie is a mutant turtle/human and April is a human (still unknown what she really is) they are different species. But don’t you think tmnt 2012 should be big fresh brand new version, have a good ending that doesn’t have another human/human (capril) pair over again. And from what I seen it: it’s not about species, model and sacred tradition. It’s more like you DON’T want apritello happen. Not willing to open for new thing (Reject Donnie X April!!!) Just this one series!

You can't blame a fan for being a traditionalist. And I prefer the 2003 Casey, too.

Funny thing is, this wouldn't be the first time a teenage April and Casey was attempted. Observe in this link a failed pilot for a TMNT cartoon from 2001: Okay, never mind. I can't find the video anymore.
