I know I might be kinda late to start a discussion about the Season 5 of TMNT 2003, with the episodes can be find on the net now. I won't spoiler anything but I'll will say is that their a lot bad ass moments.
! The Turtles Dragon forms
And it will explain how some of the things that happen in Fast Forward. Since I missed pretty much all the episodes of Fast Forward so far, I can go and buy the first set of dvds.
Ohhhh Heard about this season, the one that goes into the Human Shredder right?
oh man, thanks for reminding me. I can find them on the net now, huh. Well I know what I'm gonna do after work today then. So, why did 4Kids decide not to show this again?
The reason why 4kids didn't want to show this storyline is because they want to show Fast Forward on tv, instead of the 5th season.
People still watch Ninja Turtles?
And they transform into dragons? Who thought that up and thought it was a good idea?
Well not to spoiler too much…
! At the beginning of the season 5, the turtles became Acolyates, with 4 humans for the Ninja Tribinal, and the turtles gain mystic powers to the new enemy. The Ninja Tribinal is a group of four fighters that fought the oringial Sherreder. In their final battle against The Sherreder in the past, the 4 members of the tribinal transform into dragons.
Wow. Just wow.
That's just stupid.
I enjoyed the earlier versions of the 4kids show (with that tournament), but that's just horrible.
i dunno, they have good writers, I think it will be good. a lot of things they did, would sound cheesy if you tried to explain it and simplify it.
and that fast forward thing is crap. Were the ratings for the other one not high or something?
I uploaded some screencaps from the episodes. If you want more screencaps just asked. ^_^.

ooh, bishop. ok, it does look a little cheezy, but I've liked everything else so far. :) They didn't turn into dragons in the comic, though, did they?
From what I know about the comic, no they don't turn into dragons. Even through in the comic they have similar storyline from the main storyline of Season 4 with the mutant outbreak. Expect with Raph being bitten by a vampire in the comic, while in the cartoon Don was the victim and being sting by a claw of one the mutant monster.
are the comics scanlated somewhere? I'm not a big comic book reader, so I wouldn't know where to look, but it would be interesting to see the story. I really enjoyed the story of this series; I bet I would like the comic's story too.
The official Ninja Turtles website. www.ninjaturtles.com in the comic section have the first 7 issues of the series avialable to read. I don't know any where you can read the other stuff.
The entire Lost Season was up on Youtube for a week before being taken down, and I saw the whole thing. It was fantastic. Although the idea of the Turtles becoming dragons seems pretty dumb, it worked out excellently. The season was great, it tied up a lot of loose ends and now there were some apparent plotholes in Fast Forward that turned out not to be plotholes:
! The Ninja Tribunal still being alive, Mikey's new Turtle Titan outfit, etc.
It offered a really good ending to the series, and it's kind of a shame that they made Fast Forward because the end of the Lost Season was a good way to finish the series off.
ya, i searched yesterday and could not find any episodes from season 5. damn. so where do you DL them from?
They were on Torrentspy when I last checked; I don't know if they're on there anymore.
Yeah it's still up on Torrentspy. In the search bar thing, just put down TMNT 2003, and it will take you there. ^_^.
oh wow, I've never heard of torrent spy before. very helpful. (too bad there's a ton of T&A on it)
I know what you mean man. -blushes- hehe.
Sorry for double posting and bringing this back from the dead. But I got some news about television airing for TMNT Season 5.
TMNT Season 5 will begin airing on Febuary 9th, and on youtube they got a trailer for the episodes up.
A dvd release of the Season 5 episodes is coming out on May 20th. Even through I already seen the episodes, its nice to see them finally air on U.S. Tv.
Haha that trailer was so deliciously corny xD
Tho i probably wont be getting that DVD, That season was a little too heavy on the magic and dragons for my taste. And Tengu Shredder and his elemental minions were really poor compared to previous season villans.
let us all join hands and hope that the next season brings alot more Bishop.
Well after Season 5, lead into Season 6 which was of course is Fast Forward which already aired and Bishop had somewhat a role in the 2nd half of the season. We just waiting for Season 7 to start this upcoming fall.
That commercial WAS kinda corny actually. xD;
Took 'em long enough to get these suckers on TV. Overall, I liked the whole idea of the 'lost season'. The dragons were a little much, but just about all the other stuff was enjoyable. I'll be getting the DVD for sure, rather than F.F.
Man, I want the new cartoon, like, NOW. D<
Yeah i know, but i choose to view fastforward as a spin-off so i was refering to the upcoming season.
Wonder if theyre gonna be bringing back Ch'rell or which ever shredder they are gonna have, I atleast hope its not Karai. And im hoping for another gangwar arc, Prehaps Hun's and his dragons against some new contender with the turtles having some stake in it.
Wut?
Stockman has been reduced to a hologram yet AGAIN? The last time I checked he had made himself a new body.
Nope, last time he tried growing a new body it was faulty and started rotting and he want batshit insane and drowned in to the east river only to be fished out by Bishop and be robotized again.
Ah those were the days, Bishop,Mutations and mutilation in every episode
are they actually making a new season that isn't stupid FF, or is that just wishful thinking on your part wolfwood?

Holy Crap
Stockman gets no love
He sure doesnt, youd almost feel bad for im if he wasnt such a dick all the time.

Season 7 Has been confirmed, From what ive gathered the turtles get sent back to their own time and it just picks up from there, all good so far but what im worried about is that there has been talking about a new animation style more like the new turtles(im assuming that refers to the movie) which just irks me but we'll just have to wait and see.
garrr, what ever happened to "don't fix what's not broken" :\
A quick stop at wiki gave me a little glimpse of some of the new designs.

I do prefere the original design immensly but its not as bad as i had thought tho Casey looks alot less tough and more of a nice guy….which is bad in his case, and thats some crazy looking exoskeleton for Ol shredder.
garrr, what ever happened to "don't fix what's not broken" :\
Nobody actually follows that unless you're some Hollywood big-shot who decides to do a shot per shot remake of old movie.
And the new designs - :sideways:
I'm going to miss the old design for April, since she had an nice ass in her old design. Even through her new design is nice as well.
Y HELLO THAR, UTROM SHREDDER. We meet again.
Human designs? Not too bad. I can handle April's, it's kind of a mix between 2k3-toon and CGI-movie, heavier on the movie.
Casey looks decent too, but I highly disapprove of his hair. It's too…shiny. And smooth. Anyone ever seen that shampoo commercial where the rugged biker does the 'hairflip of long, sliken tresses' thing? Yeah, kinda reminds/disturbs me like that. D:
Kinda gives me an idea of how the guy's will be drawn...
EDIT: Upon my own snooping on the web, I found a pic with the new design of the turtles (Leonardo in this case). Voila!
I quote, from The 5th Turtles Blog (originator of Wolfwoods pics too) "While not to be considered final art, this will give you an idea of where the animation style might be headed: a bit more stylized than that of both the 2K3 and FF iterations." In a comment in his entry, he also mentioned the pupils being there aren't set in stone.
Y'know, I can accept this style. Hell, I might even LIKE it. It needs tweaking (still too F.F. for my taste), but I'm not horrified.
Y HELLO THAR, UTROM SHREDDER. We meet again.
And thank god for that, Ive had to go two long seasons without any Ch'rell action what so ever, im having extreme withdrawal And if he returns then is Hun gonna come back in the fold, Or did cut his ties when he found out that he was an utrom and gonna stay with the dragons?
The turtle design was not very far from the original, didnt even raise an eyebrow at it but i wonder how it works when they are fighting.
while, not bad designs, I still hate when they change designs in the same series. I was complaining to my buddy, when I borrowed the 4th season of batman TAS. :\ I do like leo though.

A couple of more sneakpeaks, The foot tech ninja looks pretty good granted i thought the ones we had now were just perfect but i have no major objections.
And i have no real opinion on the car, as i always thought most of their vehicles were pretty lame.
And finaly i really like the second design of that mystery guy, ya know the one with the whacking stick. Wonder whats the deal with him…new villan prehaps ? hes got that bad guy look(and the kind of beard i dream wet dreams about growing xD) or maybe some old ninja master who knows.
I'm a bit worried about Season 7 since it seems kind of FF-ish, both in look and story. Serling's coming to the present and they have to save Splinter from a virtual realm…hm. Probably has to do with the fact that FF has had the highest ratings since the show began. It's only going to be 13 episodes instead of 26. But that could be a good thing, actually.
As for the Lost Season finally coming, I liked it and it turned out better than I thought with them becoming dragons and everything, but still couldn't touch Season 4 IMO.

Heard something about Splinter staying in the future to train some kid called Cody, But if hes in a confirmed episode i guess that was fake.
who's to say splinter doesn't come back during the season.
Apparently the premise for the entire season is to "reassemble" Splinter after his data gets scattered in the virtual world. Again, it's only 13 episodes, so it'll probably be just one story arc.

Oh please, PLEASE tell me you are joking.
Didn't want to start a new thread for it, but if you thought the TMNT anime was bad….then try to avoid the mangas-
