So far, Apriltello is a popular pairing among the fans. Everyone wants to see Donny and April get together. Or do they? I'm probably one of the few who doesn't like the pairing. Why? Well, not for the obvious reason (human and mutant turtle), but for other reasons.

I don't like the moments the show has where Donny either tries impressing or flirting with April. Why? Because they seem timed poorly. I'm not sure if they're doing it deliberately or not, but it bothers me. I would think that April would be offended by some of his moments such as in "Never Say Xever" when he asked her if she noticed a move he made during the fight. He would think that she would be more concerned about getting herself and Mr. Mirokami out of the restaurant and notice oogle at him. I don't think that the "first text" is something that was missed either, considering that she was telling him about Leo meeting a dangerous woman.

Also, I don't think that April is interested in him either. Personally, I think she's thinking of him more of a best guy friend than a potential love interest. I hope no one hates me for saying this, but I hope Casey becomes her boyfriend.

Personally, I'm not fond of this pairing. It's like my Zutara; I'm rooting for the official pairing to happen and not relying on fan logic or popularity. I would understandbwhy people would like it, but it's not for me.
