This isn't the first kids cartoon where characters die (Bruce Timm's Superman, Beast Wars and others), but to assume almost every character died instantly? It's probably a question that will be answered someday, but this is just too extreme to take in, Splinter, The Foot Clan, Miwa, The Mighty Mutanimals, could they and all of Earth really be dead?
