Hey… has it ever occurred to anyone that Donnie’s battle shell is probs really heavy. And sometimes he has april on his back while wearing it. What I’m saying is…. Donnie is probably a lot stronger than he’s given credit for.
I've had the personal headcanon for a while that Donnie is the second strongest behind Raph, ever since he took that barbell weight and THREW it one armed during the Train Raid episode in the season finale. Those things are HEAVY and he threw it no problem like a Discus athlete Not to mention he's built noticably wider than Leo, who's closest in physical appearance to him. Leo is more the blitzer, he's quick and agile, and looks like he could be built for speed. Donnie's got his moments where he appears weak but that could be said for all of them, it seems pretty in character for him to pretend to be as strong (or weak) as would be beneficial ATM 😆
@@yadiraaguilar2035 the Bo is made out if titanium wich a lot liter then iron so maby that would take of a bit of Weight, yet it still would probably be very heavy.(pardon my spelling)
5:43 Some signing systems can be taught to kids with difficulty speaking in order to help encourage speech development as the areas of the brain responsible for hand gestures and language are right next to the speech centre of the brain, and the hand gestures can actually stimulate the speech centre. Donnie being taught something like ASL as a young turtle would make total sense as a form of speech therapy while giving him a communication system to use as he learned
I’m autistic as well and I was actually thought ASL when I was just a tiny child Granted I forgot most of it because I learned to speak pretty quickly after I learned ASL The only gestures I still know are thank you and more
My absoloute favorite Donnie qoute is "Alright Leo you jump down first since you sell the least action figures" IT WAS SO OUT OF POCKET AND I WAS SCREAMING FOR A SOLID 5 MINUTES
He’s honestly my favorite turtle in this Tmnt version. He’s a super relatable character with very relatable qualities. His deadpanned “Lord help me I’m surrounded by idiots” personality is really relatable and hilarious to watch. Also one of my favorite thing about his character is his representation of autism. It’s shown really nicely in this series imo. Also I think him being on the autism spectrum is a great addition to his character given his high IQ and intellect (cool fun fact but a lot people with autism sometimes have genius level abilities in certain or all areas, wether it’s math, science, English. Obviously doesn’t apply to every and all people on the autism spectrum, but it’s seen in a good amount of people with it.)
Every time I rediscover the hints to autism, it all instantly explains my entire childhood and how I've acted for the past 24 years. Yes, even when I was still a baby.
2:23, Eric Bauza, who voices Splinter, also voiced Tiger Claw in the TMNT 2012 series. So this line is very funny. He also voiced these characters in Rise: Senor Hueso, Lou Jitsu, Manager, President Pepperoni, Claw Machine Kid, Clem, NYPD, Blonde Boy, Distraught Man, Narrator, Sergeant Woodpecker, Fox, Announcer, Noah Sheck, Boy #1, Man on TV, Trash Wizard, Wizard #1, Conductor. In TMNT 2012, he voiced: Tiger Claw, Hun, Triceraton, Unicorn Man, Triceraton Scientist (2), Vic Fulci, Vinnie Fulci, The Hammer, Mask 2, Evil Ninja Commander, Crimson Leader, Masks.
no bc donnie means everything to me and the fact that he was crying makes me so sad and imagine what was going thru his head and also when he was killing the kraang with his mystic drill imagine what was going thru his head bc hes my favorite
I'm a geologist and have loved geology since I was a kid. I had to turn the show off when he said "geology stinks" and almost cried. XD He's my favorite TwT
@@JullianaSprincer the library episode. He says "there's an interesting book in the rock section! Mikey: "said no one ever" Donnie: "*chuckles* Ah you're right, geology stinks"
5:47 i believe he just used asl in this episode to communicate to the squirrels (or whatever animal) he trained to work for him, but it would make sense that he learns different languages, including asl in this case, just for fun tbh
Room 16, take corridor B, down the stairs past the Ibis Tapestry~ Sliding bookcase after Bookcase shows the way to the hall! Up the pole, through the hole, to the waterfall!
"yeah what they said" IS THE MOST I'VE RELATED TO HIM EVER BECAUSE THIS HAPPENS EVERY TIME MY FRIENDS CHEER SOMEONE UP IN THE VENT CHANNEL I HAVE _N O I D E A_ WHAT TO SAY
I love that the writers confirmed Donnie to be autistic. I'm autistic myself, and when I say that Donnie represents me, where I came from, and how I came to be as the person I am today, I really mean it. I'm more into physical affection than Donnie is, but in other cases, my sensory quirks really are there. Learning Donnie was confirmed to be autistic is what got me into Rise, and TMNT as a whole, in the first place, and the representation means so much to me. They made it out more realistic yet positive than I've seen in most other shows and movies. And y'know, since I got into Rise, I've felt a lot more freedom to be myself and cut out those who give me crap because I'm autistic (including relatives). I've never felt more free to be myself and really embrace the real me ever before. So, Donnie's character, his freedom to be himself, being appreciated for who he is (not just how he's different), and his critical role in the team and show mean so much to me. The representation is EVERYTHING. I actually feel like I'm not alone in the world.
I relate to this, because of my longtime friend Amber. I love her a lot, but sometimes I don't know if she feels the same way. She always stands up for me when I get bullied, but she doesn't always treat me that well. Like when we work on partner projects together, she makes ME do all the work, and SHE takes all the credit for it.
@Jade & Donatello Yeah, group projects suck a lot :'D you should definitely tell the teacher that she's taking all the credit! You deserve to be recognized for your hard work too.
ISWTG Donnie will always be my favorite, regardless of the show. But Rise Donnie is my #1 (even tho in Rise I relate to him and Mikey a bit tooooo much at times lmfao)
I knew I've heard him say"salutations" before. I actually had a dream where Donnie and Leo were singing 'Stayed Gone' from Hazbin Hotel with Leo as vox and Donnie as Alastor and the way he said "Salutations" just sounded Soo familiar to me 🤣💜

AS someone with ASD, i learned ASL to communicate during nonverbal stints as a kid. So... yes, confirmed
I actually started learning because my parents were trying to use it as a secret code. Also, I have a deaf aunt.
I’m autistic as well and I was actually thought ASL when I was just a tiny child
Granted I forgot most of it because I learned to speak pretty quickly after I learned ASL
The only gestures I still know are thank you and more
too bad he only has 6 fingers
As a Donnie stan, I respect the infodump
My absoloute favorite Donnie qoute is "Alright Leo you jump down first since you sell the least action figures"
IT WAS SO OUT OF POCKET AND I WAS SCREAMING FOR A SOLID 5 MINUTES
2:28 I only just figured out that was a reference to how splinter's VA was tigerclaw in the 2012 series xd
OH MY GOD I NEVER REALIZED THAT
🤯
Mikeys "WooAAA!" Reaction to donnie being a ship makes me happy
That was how I reacted too
Same lol
donnie signs 'make' (tapping fists together twice) before signing 'explode/blow up,' so he's telling them to make it explode lmao

To quote Leo: DONNIIIE'S WRONG!!!!

My immediate thought was "Oh come on don't copy Big Bang Theory! You're better than that, writers!"
When did he say that?

7:26 THE DRILL
1:46 as a Leo fan I personally agree with him, HES POSSESSED BY A VIDEO GAME D:
Donnie is such a riot... I love how he just casually darts Raph. Plus it's awesome to have a fellow autistic in one of my favorite franchises. 😁
As someone who know ASL I can confirm that it was a more creative sign way of signing it but it was sign language and I made me so happy to see!
He took a SHELLFIE in the middle of all of this !?
