Hm, that actually makes a lot of sense, I agree. Seems like it's even more character develpment for him than I realized.

Yeah it was a great Raph ep.

This is true. Stockman is really starting to prove himself, especially in the eyes of Shredder. Shredder wasn't even mad at him for failing. Um, WHAT!?! The way he talked about Stockman and the other mutants leads me to predict one of two outcomes happening when he fully becomes Super Shredder:

1: SS puts Stockman in charge of the other mutants as the new second in command, and intimidates them into doing everything Stockman says. OR

2: He straight up gets rid of (kills or throws in a dungeon) the other mutants for their incompetence and keeps Stockman saying "You are all I need." This is probably less likely because we know they ain't gonna kill of Bebop and Rocksteady.

I'm betting number one, Shredder only imprisons his enemies or step-daughters, not flunkies. He could still find SOME use out of them.

I'm really starting to sense some sort of connection between them and the closest comparison I can think of is the Brain/Mallah connection.

YOSH-that would rule! Also, when I learned of the title, I was actually hoping for the actual Dregg to make an appearance. You know stealing Stockman from Shredder and stuff. Pretty sure they're saving that for later. Maybe, but still. He should at least be able to tell when someone else is meditating. He is a NINJA. You need knowledge to have preference.

I don't think its that he didn't know he was meditating, but that Raph equated meditation with just simple day-dreaming. Raph worships the god of meat, tangible things, sees things for what they are, not as spiritual as say Leo or Mikey.

And absolutely. Splinter focuses so much time with Leo that the other turtles barely spend time with him. They're your sons too man. Truth, kind of a problem with Turtle media in general honestly.

I would love to see that matter/anti-matter explosion. Plus, I think Casey should meet more girls anyway. He only seems partial to his crush on April, he might actually find out that he likes someone else more. He seemed attracted to Karai in The Deadly Venom. What other girls does Casey know? Mona Lisa, who never even talked to him and vice-versa (they could at least be friends)? I think it would make more sense for Casey to have a crush on Shinigami instead of useing every new female character as eye candy for a turtle, especially Mikey. Straight up, bringing room for Apritello to blossom since the love triangle of April/Casey/Donatello is basically non-existant.

They were a'ight. A'ight? A'IGHT?! THEY WERE GLORIOUS!

I'm kinda partial on the shrapnel. Maybe if someone actually managed to stab him, but I'm kind of clueless after seeing this. Oh...my Tengu...the chest attack by Shredder. He accidentally hit the spot with the shrapnel, pushing it too close to his heart for surgery to do something!
