>if u notice the way leo has treated her he doesn't seem to love her in any way

Defining 'love' is hard, but there's certainly some chemistry going on. Otherwise Raph wouldn't have reacted. If you mean to say that she flirts with Leo more than he does with her, I could agree. The Batman/Catwoman analogy used on karai (2012 TV series) is quite apt.

Leo did say he saw good inside her, asked her for help, tells his brothers to hear her out, agrees to team up with her, etc. In both cases, there are the beginnings of feelings if not out-right love, I'd say.

Theirs is a contrast to the Don/April thing because it's antagonistic and serious, whereas D/A is innocent and indirect. Only in this recent season with the bat-dad-drama and their first fight have D/A begun to explore that element, whereas L/K could similarly benefit from some casual non-deadly downtime, perhaps.

>I hate cleeshays about chicks

Turtles hooking up with humans is a cliche?

>Oh your hot but your weak and then the chick beats the dude up. >Its irritating I've seen thousands of shows andits all the same.

There are some shows where a male and female who become love interests battle and the guy is a superior fighter. Ranma vs Akane comes to mind. Albeit Ranma has a tendency to change into a female form while fighting Akane, so I'm not sure if that would count.

Legend of the Legendary Heroes also has a male and female protagonist who clash, and the male's overall abilities quite outweigh the girl's. Although it's more of a sorcery>sword type thing.
