Come on I think Donatello could and would be a great Ronin also show him some love too. I like all turtles been a fan since 5yrs old to now present day.
Do you know WHY they chose Michelangelo to be the last surviving turtle? Two reasons. First, they knew that people wouldn't expect it. Leonardo or Raphael would've been obvious, and Donatello would have used a more scientific approach to the situation. But Mikey turning hardcore like that? Definitely a good surprise. Second, Mikey was the first Ninja Turtle they ever drew. So the idea that the first turtle ended up being the last survivor was appealing to Kevin Eastman. It made things feel like they came full circle in more ways than one.
I like how it’s Michaelangelo who’s the ronin, Splinter said that he had the most talent of the 4 - greater than all 3 combined. He just always preferred goofing off.
Well I guess you can make anything up for a narrative. I never saw this potential in Michaelangelo. After he was the last one to survive, I can see why he would change in such a way. Good story regardless.
I am 33 years old and about to cry. I grow up with the tmnt movie from 1990 (which is still the best all them all) and later with the animated series 1987-1996. To see what happened to Michelangelo broke my heart. I was always the Raphael type of guy but loved the goofy way Michelangelo takes nothing seriously.
I am so on the same wavelength as you on this one! Only I preferred Mikey when I was a kid, and seeing him broken and alone was the saddest thing I could ever think of.
Certainly, I understand your perspective. It does indeed add a sense of genuineness to the character's development through challenging experiences. However, it must be acknowledged that the trauma endured by the character is undoubtedly significant and emotionally taxing. @sccoltsfan8242
There's a game being made; "God of War" style... But you are, right. It would make a great follow up to the original live action movie.... You could even save money and get the original actors since they've aged accordingly and wouldn't be expensive since they aren't A-list. Plus the actor who played Casey Jones is fairly well known...
As someone who grew up watching this the tutrtles cartoons back in the eighties it really hit hard seeing them down and out like this. I can relate having heartaches and troubles over these years.
Being born in the early 80’s I’ve loved TMNT since I was a small child. Everything from the cartoons to the darker origins in the comics. I knew of this but never read them and I think your breakdown was awesome man thanks for that. Mikey was always my favorite turtle growing up. Even had a pet turtle that I named after him as a kid. Was cool to see him as the last and the one to make it all right in the end and especially seeing him finally at peace. This series was freaking great and glad the OG creators got their hands back on their creation👍
At first I didn’t know how I would feel about it but ultimately I did really love how they made The Last Ronin Michelangelo, the obvious pick for most people would’ve been Leonardo because not only is he the leader but he’s the most responsible of the group, but having the goofball of the group now become this really hard edged brooding badass was a really cool contrast
@@Theuglyconcretefinisher That's fair. I really thought Robin was gonna have his own little bludhaven with Lazarus Island. And I was really hoping Robin would have been the one to put the nail in the coffin of Magic John Cena, But between the tourney, Damien showing off how lethal he is, vol 3's ending, and flatline being a badass & funny love intrest, its still my favorite series
Last Ronin is one of the greatest comic series ever. When you mention last Ronin, it's up there with flashpoint, darkest night, emerald twilight, infinity war and kingdom come. I didn't care for the turtles until The Last Ronin came out. Amazing
so sad for you to say that about the rest of the turtles, im always gonna til this day be a childhood fan of the turtles, i grew up watching and for you to say such a thing like "i didnt care for the "Turtles" til the last Ronin came out" kinda hurt me inside my childhood spot but i see where you're coming from, at least i know im not the only one that is a hardcore fan of the Turtle brother's
Such an incredible story, the hardcover they released for it is worth every penny. Also between the incredible figures neca did, and the video game coming, we’re eating good
I really want to be excited for the game but it’s made buy the developers that did the Darksiders series. The first one was ok but I couldn’t really get in to the second let alone the 3rd. This series needs the quality of Rock Steady Batman Arkham. But maaaaaaaybe that’s where they will take it.
@@uselesslysexy Just a little off here - THQNordic are publishers, not developers. Black Forest Games are the developers, which is really less credible than the different teams that worked on the Darksiders series, so...we'll just have to see how that goes. Personally love the Darksiders series, but I know it's not for everyone (especially since they're known for having different types of gameplay every entry)
Do you guys even realize how much untapped potential is here?... Do you realize how many banger videos you can do narrating literally every series in comics? I'm not sure you realize how good you guys are at it... It would also give you enough content to last a lifetime...you guys are awesome you should consider this lol
thank you for this! i knew they would die but im still having trouble processing it and actually accepting it. i dont want them to be gone. love the story.
When I read this, I wanted it to be Raph as he was always my favorite. But it hit harder to see Mikey so dark when he was always the jokester. It was bittersweet too as Mikey was the first turtle that was created by Eastman and Laird.
The series is fantastic, as each turtle has proven exceptional. Leo was always considered the best due to his leadership and being the oldest, Raph for his strength, Donnie for his intelligence, and Mikey for his speed. However, Mikey is probably the most underrated due to his laid-back personality. Each of the other turtles taught him throughout their history of fighting and caring for themselves. Therefore, he would be the perfect choice to be the last turtle to survive. Although it may seem messed up, it is still the best thing that could have been done for the series. I grew up watching Ninja Turtles, and it was then that I developed a love for martial arts. I would love to see a live-action adaptation of the story.
Rob of Comics explained has entered the chat. Watch his video about rule first issue of this series and your opinion will change. This guy just reads the text with some extra stuff on top. Rob dives into things and had vast knowledge to draw from.
First time making time and sitting to watch a video about comics ... I have always been a TMNT fan ... this story seems extremely awesome. love everything about it.
When i found out who the last ronin was i felt a little disappointed at first... thrn i remembered, he managed to ro do exactly what his brothers did, while goofing around. Imagine him handle things when older, more mature, more focused and full of revenge. It suits so perfectly
It was sad at first when I heard they created the last Ronin and when I found out it was about most of the turtles dying and one turtle left, it blew my mind. Because I'm a huge fan. It kind of reminds me of me and my brothers as we watch the show and movies together. And I was still trying to figure out which of the turtles it would be. I was thinking, maybe, Leonardo or Donatello. As crazy as that sounds. But it's good to finally hear the story, and I love it. Hearing the ending of this story, I can't wait until they make a game or an actual movie it's gonna be epic and make a lot of money.
This was perfect. Mikey was always my favorite turtle since i was a kid. I always felt like he was more than just jokes, but that he chose to be the brother to try and ease the stress that the other brothers felt in a lot of the situations that they all had to deal with
I love this comic series because it’s not who I WANTED to carry on the TMNT mantle. I was a Leonardo or Raphael fan but Mikey was explained in a way that just made so much sense.
I think the ending is very fitting for this type of story. I am curious to see the future turtles in this timeline but if not I’m satisfied with the ending.
Omg check out The Last Ronin - The Lost Years!!! It shows the next generation of turtles quite a bit older, but not quite as teenagers. It’s very cute, and the comics involve many like “behind the scene” parts of Mikey’s travels.
14:32 And even brutal-er(?) is that a ninja TURTLE, dies in the water--- where he SHOULD have an exponentially wicked advantage. .. talk about a kick to both Goldens in the ol' apple bag
it only makes sense that it was mikey!!! he was matching his brothers the entire time...... and he was screwing off, cracking the most jokes, ANNNND THE DUDE WAS FIGHTING WITH NUN CHUCKS!!!! they are the joke weapon of the fighting world!!!!!!!! they look cool and thats about it. you would have to be at the absolute peak of fighting capabilities to make them even remotely dangerous!!! hence why he no longer is running with them in the last ronin. he is no longer screwing around.
If you think about it, mikey is the only turtle that would make sense to be the last ronin. He's the only one that could be told to leave the fight since they always babied him, the others would feel too much responsibility for him / he would be the one to be tasked with getting people to safey(exactly what happens). Amazing comic series
Dude the symbolism of Raph dying because his impatience, wrath and vengeance then Donnie dying by ambush fueled by hope for peace and Leo dying leading from the front sacrificing himself. 🤌🏽
You was wondering if he could talk to his brothers and yes he can. In rise of the TMNT we learn at the end of the series they could talk to each other with their minds and that causes Blank white eyes. You never see the last ronin’s irises meaning that he can talk to them through the after life. Fun fact
His potential always came through in small parts, all his jokes and humor won’t be like it is without his bros. He was always a great fighter, but he never showed how great he can be until he lost everyone and had a reason to train hard and fight hard
Michelangelo the comedian the jokester had to stop joking around. And get real dangerous. Hit me hard to see them go but the end was nice to see the legacy continues.
I really enjoyed this. Mikey being revealed as the last Ronin is the best choice, bc its the least obvious! The storyline was just great. Getting to see how Leo, Raph & Donnie died along with Casey Jones & Splinter really added to this story. Very happy with it!
Honestly, Michaelangelo was always my favorite of the team, so to see him at a badass like this is more awesome than I can form words for. If I had to nitpick one thing you had said about the Ronin’s identity, though, I would’ve put easiest money on that being Leonardo at first guess, given the leadership skills and determination. Raphael would actually have been my second guess.
it's random, any one of the turtles could have been the Ronin, but the least likely would be Raphael, as he is too aggressive, which is very important for the group, but puts himself at most risk; Leo as well as the leader. so it makes most sense for Michalangelo or Donatello, but most fans like Mikey, so makes sense.
Rrally shouldnt have let us know the brotrrs were dead untill it showed them dying instead of showing them as ghost. Imagine the shock value. Comic would of gotten more attetion just from that.
Man. Almost got chocked up. This was great. Thanks for the great commentary. I'm now wanting to go back and read more Turtle Comics. You have me on a new path. 🙌🏾
man i can’t believe i actually started tearing up towards the end there, im not even that big of a turtles fan, mainly just watched the 2012 series (which i adored) but goddamn this is a good comic
Ngl I always pictured mike or don to be the sole survivor because I always imagined mikey survived outta dumb luck or don to survive since he was the smartest one I figured he'd survive somehow like they split up and no one comes back or something it's fucking great though that's the first and only manga to make me cry frl
I absolutely LOVED EVERY SECOND reading this , from start to finish and Michelangelo being my favorite turtle just made me LOVE the story so much more and the ending TORE me to pieces, but man I wish I could forget it and read it again tbh 😮💨🔥🔥🔥
This might be one of the best series I've read. Im a huge TMNT fan from the beginning, and while this broke my heart, the fact that it could break my heart means I cared at all! So well done and this recap of it is epic! Thanks for sharing my friend!!!
Can you do the history of magneto, gambit, judge dredd, Cassie hack, qwenpool, hit monkey, vamperrella, moon girl & devil dinosaur and league of extraordinary gentlemen
I have the graphic novel release of The Last Ronin and it's awesome even though I couldn't hold back from crying at the end because I've had members of my family who've died over the years but one of the deaths in my family was and still is hard for me to deal with that being my father but the Ninja Turtles were and still are my reason for not doing myself in after that so I give Last Ronin a big thumbs up
I'm sure I'm alone on this but for me Raph would have been a better choice, Raph no longer fighting back his rage becomes Ronin. As a fan from the very beginning I'm supposed to brush almost 40 years of Michelangelo's fun loving goofiness under the rug? Too far of a stretch for me. That being said I also understand why it's Michelangelo considering he was the first drawn so it's fitting he be the last. So i get it but my first point still stands lol.
Facts. Im right along with you but Mikey was a great choice as well seeing that he was suppose to have the greatest potential outta the 4. Raphael would have been amazing for this role
They should make this a movie and have it look like the first turtles movies but have aimed for the fans that been here since day one put some blood in the movie and it would be a masterpiece
I loved that they picked Mikey being the last ronin. Most people expect Ralph or Leo, but amazing to see Mikey being that guy

These have been my guys since 87. At the age of 38, I still can't get enough of the story of the turtles

'While I am still breathing you will call me Master Splinter.'
It's cool that casey Marie is a mutant. I think this is the first time that there's a mutant looking human in TMNT with no relation to the X-men

The hardcover trade book is beautiful and only cost me 30 bucks at b&n
Same I wanna see it animated
@nathaniel3867 dear God no, not after mutant mayhem. Paramount can't be trusted with it.
Agreed
What I like best about the Last Ronin is that it has given us a new gen of turtles: Odyn, Uno, Yi and Moja.
This comic is soo amazing. A movie and true video game adaptation would be lovely
This comic was 🔥🔥🔥 I wish this came out in theaters! 🙏🏾
Im going to need therapy after watching this, the inner child in me is deeply traumatized. This was a deep story!!!

Awesome recap!!! Bravo!
This is gonna be the best live action tmnt movie ever
What would happen if the original Turtles and Splinter knew about this dark alternate time line where they all don't survive?
Michelangelo the comedian the jokester had to stop joking around. And get real dangerous. Hit me hard to see them go but the end was nice to see the legacy continues.
Thank you so much for this ! even thou its all explanied it just makes me want to go by all of the issues even more!
Wow. I heard about the series but wasn't too keen on buying the comics. Thanks for doing this man. Really appreciate it

No lie, the creator chose the right turtle as the Ronin
it's random, any one of the turtles could have been the Ronin, but the least likely would be Raphael, as he is too aggressive, which is very important for the group, but puts himself at most risk; Leo as well as the leader. so it makes most sense for Michalangelo or Donatello, but most fans like Mikey, so makes sense.

picked up the whole series cant wait for it to continue
Can you do the history of magneto, gambit, judge dredd, Cassie hack, qwenpool, hit monkey, vamperrella, moon girl & devil dinosaur and league of extraordinary gentlemen
You'll laugh, you'll cry, you'll groan, you'll...sai? What an epic. I highly recommend picking up a copy.
It was beautiful. Needs to be a movie 🐲⚔️🪬
That was so good oh my God I loved it
Wonderful commentary. Can't wait till the motion picture comes out. Thank you for this video.
I have the graphic novel release of The Last Ronin and it's awesome even though I couldn't hold back from crying at the end because I've had members of my family who've died over the years but one of the deaths in my family was and still is hard for me to deal with that being my father but the Ninja Turtles were and still are my reason for not doing myself in after that so I give Last Ronin a big thumbs up
I'm sure I'm alone on this but for me Raph would have been a better choice, Raph no longer fighting back his rage becomes Ronin. As a fan from the very beginning I'm supposed to brush almost 40 years of Michelangelo's fun loving goofiness under the rug? Too far of a stretch for me. That being said I also understand why it's Michelangelo considering he was the first drawn so it's fitting he be the last. So i get it but my first point still stands lol.
Facts. Im right along with you but Mikey was a great choice as well seeing that he was suppose to have the greatest potential outta the 4. Raphael would have been amazing for this role
43:36 That thug's helmet reminds me of Durge from Star Wars Republic comic.
The Last Ronin universe is so f-ing dope
THIS IS ONE OF THE GREATEST STORIES EVER AND ITS NOT EVEN COMPLETELY FINISHED ITS MORE COMING
Wow! Awesome! Need a TV series for this!
They should make this a movie and have it look like the first turtles movies but have aimed for the fans that been here since day one put some blood in the movie and it would be a masterpiece
Amazing man! This has to be a series or movie. Somehow, someway.
This needs to be a movie and also it is a reference from TMNT 2003
Definitely should be made into a movie.
Wow this is bad ass.. and they're making a video game about this? I pray it does this epic tale justice
