Plus I don't even think Shredder's really dead. He was winning that fight, then Leo got one good hit in and next thing you know the Kuro Kabuto is in Leo's hand..

Not to mention, that he's pretty immune to fire and most attacks don't hurt him sooo..how is he dead? Agreed on the ending being a bit rushed.



However, this episode was pretty freakin' awesome, probably best of the season. Also, it seems pretty clear that he sliced Saki's head off. That helmet pretty much melded with his skull. I don't see how he could've gotten that thing off without slicing his head off. If you look at the original art for this shot, there's no doubt that Leo decapitated him:

It was probably censored a bit for the show, since in this one you don't see the line through his neck and the black splatter behind it.
