Will they butcher Usagi's supporting cast as much as the 2003 series though?

Stan Sakai worked on and approved those episodes in conjunction with Peter Laird.

They were ok for the creator, but not for you? I guess you understand the characters better than Sakai does.

Isn't Usagi a creator owned character? How the hell does he end up in all the different TMNT cartoons?

Well, it's more that Stan Sakai is friends with Peter Laird... which just makes this more confusing, as I'm pretty sure Sakai said he didn't want anything to do with the show, as Laird wasn't involved in any way.

Even if it IS something new...

We still aren't finished with season 4 yet. Season 4 has been going for a year and a half and they aren't done airing all the episodes.

You likely won't see any of the Usagi stuff until 2019.

shit was pretty brutal. She died in late 2014.

> June 8, 2013
> Yesterday was grueling. By the time I got home after midnight I was too tired to have dinner, so went right to bed. Sharon is back in the hospital, in the room next to the room she was in a couple days ago, which is next to the room she had a few days before that one. She has the same beautiful view of the jacaranda trees.

> Many of you know the story behind all this, but most of you do not. We been pretty open about all this when talking to people, but I leave personal information off FaceBook. This ordeal with Sharon has been the exception, one for which I am glad I shared because the support we've received has been overwhelming.

> Sharon has a brain tumor, a meningioma. It is benign, but inoperable. It was discovered in 2004 when she went deaf in her left ear (everything happens on her left side). We got a second and a third opinion, and they all concurred that it could not be removed. She underwent a series of daily radiation treatments which seemed to stop its growth, and that was confirmed with MRIs every 6 months then yearly.

> To everyone's surprise, especially the doctors, It returned in 2011, and quite aggressively. The left side of her face is paralyzed, including her eye, vocal chords, and throat. It also deteriorated her neck bone, so she is unable to turn her head left to right and up and down. She has double-vision, difficulty talking and swallowing, and has loss a tremendous amount of weight. She had been undergoing chemo therapy. We did look into other options from New York to Mexico, but stuck with the chemo. However, Sharon's situation is very rare and there is no standard operation procedure in its treatment.

Quoted By:

>>89737784
> She has many other problems associated with the tumor, treatment, or just coincidence--diabetes, high blood pressure, rapid heart rate, weight loss, slight anemia, to mention just a few. Eating has been especially hard for her because of difficulty in swallowing and her no-carb diet. She lost about 45 pounds in the last year, and she was pretty petite to start with.

> About 7 weeks ago, she looked especially bad and I encouraged her to go to the doctor. She had two appointments in a couple days, and said she could hold out till then. She fainted that night, and I took her to emergency. She had fluid in her chest outside her lung that had gotten infected. They drained the fluid and gave her antibiotics, but one problem always led to another. The antibiotics killed off the good bacteria, and that led to an intestinal infection. For every step forward, we seem to take one step back.

> The doctors were surprised in 2004 that there was no facial paralysis or other complications then. The way we see it, we actually were blessed with 7 additional years of good health.

> We have pretty good health coverage. That had always been a priority to us, and it was difficult sometimes as a freelancer. However, it won't last forever so please continue to keep us in your prayers and thoughts. Thank you.

well that's good at least.

because Nickelodeon has a retarded policy about not letting any show air more than approximately 20 new episodes in a year(it's why Power Rangers does split seasons these days)

Reminder that Grasscutter is the most hype arc of the entire series. It has literally everything from the previous arcs interacting in one fantastic story

>>89745176
>Usagi x Tomoe
NEVER EVER

No seriously, never ever even though they'd be perfect together. Kitsune is too independent, Chizu is isolated and driven by her quest for revenge, the mother of his son is married to another guy, that one girl got killed, I think Inazuma is possessed by Jei. Women are romantically separated from Usagi almost as often as he kills a horse
