Personally, I preferred for Mikey. Most of my friends did, since It Came From The Depths had such a compelling "first date", "first argument" and "I'm falling in love with you" vibe to it. Before Leatherhead aged so much in, he had young green scales and had never had a real social life, suggesting he wasn't that old. And this scene made many of us believe they were not only already dating, but had already started sleeping together (portrayed in only the most TV-Y7-friendly way, of course). Even my 71-year-old dad had that immediate impression of them, because of the common wisdom that two males past puberty do not sleep and spoon unless they are in some way romantically or intimately involved. Then the show started to get really inconsistent with character and plot, and we never know what they intend to do with Mikey or Leatherhead, or indeed any of the story or characters.

But yes, anyone would have been better than this Renet. She was very, very poorly written. Mikey and Renet could have worked had the writing been better. But after what happened in the two episodes she was in, I think this Renet is already a failed character who will likely never be more anything than a shallow love interest and romantic plot tumor whose most complex personality trait is her ability to gainax and her remarkable supernatural power to reach into an audience's mind and turn a two-dimensional show into a one-dimensional show. Yes, she was bad. Very, very bad. XD

KaijuHero:

Yes, I'm familiar with that character model. She actually appears on lots of episodes, but she has a different face and blonde hair color. New York City has a lot of Catholic schools, and a lot of girls attending Catholic school wear plaid skirts like that. In Irma's case, she appeared to be wearing it more as a personal fashion along with the rest of her goth clothes and accessories.

I can understand the Leatherhead part a little, but still... O_O It's kind of...unexpected. But anything goes, I guess. Plus, I do not care much for Renet, but I can see why you think that way for her. I don't think she was just a love interest for Mikey, but they apparently focused on that more than adding more to her, which she should of done. Yeah, Renet is nothing special as a character. They could have done her better.

To KaijuHero: I can see the general and his army getting in the way of the turtles and making it hard for them to get what they need. I wonder if they'll be enemies of the Triceratons like the 2003 series?

And it would be nice to see those characters in the other post you made. Maybe we can see some other characters in space, like Kerma the Turtleoid, or that Polarisoid tourist guy, or just about anyone... What did you think of the premier today.
