I like to think the turtles got it for him as a gift, and it was so utterly ridiculous he told them “you better not call me on this thing unless one of you is dying”
He's not wrong. Ninja were mostly spies gathering Intel on their enemies. But when they are tasked with assassination, they usually make it look like a freak accident.
4 rules of Ninjitsu 1st. Live by the code of the martial arts. 2nd. Never fight unless someone else starts. 3rd. Always stick together, no matter what. 4th. If all else fails, then it's time to kick butt.
Donatello: “No offence, Sensei, but I can’t keep fighting alien technology with a six-foot staff. I was hoping…maybe I could upgrade it.” Splinter: “Ah, a seven-foot staff. Interesting.” Donatello: “No! I mean, using modern technology.” Splinter: “Ah, a solar powered staff.”
@@_I02_ considering that Raph stab them with his sai, I don't think it should be a problem. Still, I do agree that a metal staff would work out better, mainly for defensive maneuvers tho
I loved this splinter, he was deep with the proverbs, had a whit sharper than Shredder's blades, and like all versions he loved his sons. So much so he protected them from beyond the grave.
@@SaiyanGamer95 Where as the 03 series and beyond do have him consider them his sons as he raised them. Granted the 03 Splinter was never human from the start but rather was the pet rat to Hamato Yoshi and Tang Shen.
The funniest part about the beyond the grave bit, is the fact that that one dude who was scared of splinter when the spirits of the underworld were released should’ve died long splinter was born. This means he was kicking ass all throughout the underworld
This is one of the reasons why 2012 TMNT is my favourite. It expands a lot of the character's main personalities and makes them more well-rounded, especially Splinter. He actually acts like a father to the turtles and it's awesomely adorable.
I also like this flashback sequence and Splinter’s shocked face that later became more intense and serious, since it reminded him of his old archenemy Oroku Saki (aka Shredder).
I loved how Splinter said he made Leo leader because he asked him. But then later he says that he only said that to boost his confidence at the time, and he really did see leadership traits in him at an early age.
Honestly, I loved this version of Splinter. Still a loving father and skilled ninja... but also a complete and utter troll at times. Splinter: Was that fair? Leonardo: No! Splinter: WE'RE NINJA, you dumbass. Surprise attacks are our thing.
Also these ones: -Solar energy staff -Can you smell a rock? -I need cheese -This means nothing -Nibbling on cheese -The Olympics -Told you so -You're a monster in and out There are more, but this are the ones that I got at the top of my head
The cheese phone will forever be the funniest moment to me. just how it gets dropped in the middle of an otherwise serious episode lol. i just started wheezing the first time i saw it

I still love how a phone made to look like a wheel of cheese is used in case of a serious emergency. 😂
I like to think the turtles got it for him as a gift, and it was so utterly ridiculous he told them “you better not call me on this thing unless one of you is dying”
He loves cheese, so its fitting.
That Was Definitely Mikey’s Idea 😂
*hears ringing* The cheese phone!
He may be a serious master but he still a dad and a dad's got to make a joke😂
The first rule of ninjutsu is do no harm. Unless you mean to do harm then do LOTS of harm!
The standard I live by
The first rule of ninjutsu is do no harm. The second rule is to leave no witnesses of the harm that you do do.

"He is... A doofus"
Well at least he's being honest.
This is the exact thing my current gaming friends must've thought when we first met a couple years back. I'll say I turned out pretty good.
Ouch, that hurt worse than a beat down 😂
😂😂😂😂
I never thought I would hear him say something like "doofus"
"They say that in Japan?"
"They would if you we're there"
Best comeback, Fire 🔥 😂
Donatello: “No offence, Sensei, but I can’t keep fighting alien technology with a six-foot staff. I was hoping…maybe I could upgrade it.”
Splinter: “Ah, a seven-foot staff. Interesting.”

Splinter: “Ah, a solar powered staff.”
Donnie could've at least opted for a metal staff. Though Metalhead was a huge help.
I mean Rise donnie did XD@Dbzmaster159
Honestly, I don't see why Donnie is complaining. He has a hidden blade inside of his staff, he should just use that
@Rose_Petals12 if you're stabbing the aliens itself sure but fighting robots I think a metal staff will do
@@_I02_ considering that Raph stab them with his sai, I don't think it should be a problem. Still, I do agree that a metal staff would work out better, mainly for defensive maneuvers tho
“Oh, I did not realize he said mean things. Of course! You had no choice but to jeopardize your mission!”
That one is the best
I love that line!!! 😂😂😂
At least in the 03 turtles, one time when Raph went berserk and attacked his brothers, he was wracked with guilt for it.
Burn

They say that in Japan?
@@justin2308they would if you were there
@@radiohostalastor 😂😂😂. Okay, that is funny considering Splinter is the one who said that.
We need this Splinter's personality back.
It's the best
Agreed. I think Mutant Mayhem Splinter should’ve been like this.
Serious and wise, but will also makes funnies.
@@cameroniacobuccimutant mayhem Splinter will probably grow into this
@@Mammothsaber-4457 Good way to look at it, but I would’ve just done it from the beginning. Maybe even give elements from 2003 Splinter.
Everyone laughs at the cheese phone, but no one brings up that he walks in a giant hamster wheel to do deep thinking. 😂
I think it’s a subset of someone pacing to think(I happen to be one of them)
No one laughs at the Hamster Wheel. It's power is too great
Fr like it couldn’t be a treadmill or something normal it had to be a giant hamster wheel 😂
@@jay-b1223 Don't you dare tell me you wouldn't have more fun walking on a hamster wheel than a treadmill
@@Vandriar alright you got me there 😂
I loved this splinter, he was deep with the proverbs, had a whit sharper than Shredder's blades, and like all versions he loved his sons. So much so he protected them from beyond the grave.
Funny thing, the 1987 and comic versions don't consider the Turtles to be his sons. Just his students.

Another good one is when the squirrel escaped Leo and Splinter reluctantly got up and said, "I should've been in a deeper trance." Lol
2012 Master Splinter is the best version.
He's one of the main three I've grown up with. Along with the 2003 version and the 2004 movie version.
Nah, 1993 was peak.
@@Dbzmaster159 actually the movie version (in that case of WB's movie) is 2007 and not 2004
I miss this Splinter
Why did he have to die 😭
Yeah why😫😭
Cause they wanna create more conflict
He died twice! The first was saved via time travel with the fugitoid. In the end both times he was killed by Saki.
Plot
Because Shredder is a damn hater.
Whoever pitched the idea to have Hoon Lee voice Splinter needs a massive pay raise, he was perfect to play the role of a wise ninjitsu master.
3:40-3:50 Splinters most savage line!🤣🤣🤣
😂😂
0:20 -0:25 wonder if splinter's father used that trick on all new students including his own son if one gets cocky
Yes, he do, it shows in 3 season when the turtles travel in time
I imagine Splinter learned how to do this because the turtles don't have ears to grab and tug on.
The chuckle afterwards tho 😂😂
02:18 was ruthless!!!
"A Ninja is never Defenseless"
2:40 when Grounding u isn't enough punishment for your failure
"They would if you were there" 💀
I call this version of splinter “Strict Troll”.
2:06" was that fair?"
“No!”
“Did I win?”
“… I see your point.”
@@cardinalchaos2278 "Seek victory, not fairness"
3:08 Splinter: 😠 What is going on in here?!
I mean no disrespect to the ones that came before and after but this is my favorite splinter I love him so much
We all do
Same
Spike really betrayed Raph 😂
Splinter: is that a chimpmunk?
This was the best iteration of Splinter
0:30 Master Splinter: What do you mean fair fight?
First time I saw that scene, I knew Leo was about to get it.😂
"I shouldn't have tell you". What every parent through out ever generation ends up saying at one point.
feels wrong to not include the “the first rule of being a ninja, is do no harm. Unless you need to do harm, then do LOTS of harm!”
"Deception is the ninja's most powerful weapon, it seems Karai is a master"
I give it a 10 out of 10.
1:05
Dananananananana Dananananananana RATMAN!!!
To the ratmobile
@@stylishmusic4012It's the rat king! He's going to take over the city!
0:22 you can just tell their trying not to laugh lol 😂
This is one of the reasons why 2012 TMNT is my favourite. It expands a lot of the character's main personalities and makes them more well-rounded, especially Splinter. He actually acts like a father to the turtles and it's awesomely adorable.
This is the Splinter (TMNT show) I grew up watching. Nostalgia!
I grew up watching many versions of the turtles, including the 2003 Nickelodeon one. This is my favorite iteration.
1:31
Splinter: Where did you learn that?
1:33 Leo: 😕 Mikey learned it from his new friend.
1:34 Splinter: 😠The man who taught him that Kata is no friend. It comes from the Shredder.
I also like this flashback sequence and Splinter’s shocked face that later became more intense and serious, since it reminded him of his old archenemy Oroku Saki (aka Shredder).
I felt bad for sensei in that scene , just a simple evening checking on his sons and then bam! Just ptsd out of nowhere .
1:10 "Moshi Moshi?"
Moshi Moshi (もしもし) is the way someone in Japan would say “hello” when picking up the phone.
I loved how Splinter said he made Leo leader because he asked him. But then later he says that he only said that to boost his confidence at the time, and he really did see leadership traits in him at an early age.
Imagine the other incarnations of Splinter being impressed by 2012 Splinter's pressure point jab technique.
I guess you could say, the main antagonist of the series shredded our hearts for what he did to this man.
I like when splinter has a sense of humor with the gang. Really shows he's there father
This splinter was a fucking gift. One of the best.
0:08 me with my dogs 😭😭
For me this is the first Splinter that actually felt like a ninja. Especially the "what do you mean 'fair fight'?"
0:36 made me lose it
You know you are done when the ninja rat says "Who said i was not Mad?"
This is the best version of Master Splinter.
3:18
leo: i'm glad you not mad
splinter: who says i'm not mad
"There was another man competing for her....(flashback)..Steve Pate-
Honestly, I loved this version of Splinter. Still a loving father and skilled ninja... but also a complete and utter troll at times.
Splinter: Was that fair?
Leonardo: No!
Splinter: WE'RE NINJA, you dumbass. Surprise attacks are our thing.
I'll be honest I honestly love the 2003 series more than 2012 but this splinter is the goat
I freaking love this version of Splinter ❤
"No tv!" Will never be forgotten for me, relatable.
His death broke me
It's perfect that this is the best Splinter.
And then he became Shredder.
“The cheese phone! Truly an emergency!”
Splinter the best
"And now we shall see if a cat always lands on it's feet." 🤣🤣🤣
2012 Splinter is GOATED🔥🔥🔥🐀👑
Face full of nunchucku was by far my fave to date.
I tend to forget how much of a troll Splinter was in this
Splinter 2003-
A wise and composed Master
Splinter 2012-
A Badass and a responsible parent
3:41 They would if you were there made me laugh.
Oof 😅😂
1:52 it sounds like something else
I’ve seen all the cartoon TMNT series almost all the movies and Hoon Lee or this Master Splinter has the best voice hands down.
Apart from Jackie Chan
@@radiohostalastor I really can’t support Jackie Chan given his history. Still separating art from artist, I’ll bet he’s good but is no Hoon Lee.
you forgot
the first rule if being a ninja is do no harm... unless you mean to do harm, then do lots of harm
Alternate title: Splinter being the best TMNT12 character for 4 minutes
"The cheese phone! Truly an emergency."
This is by far my favorite interpretation of Splinter!
Nostalgic
“And where have you been?”
“Nowhere…”
“How did you get so hurt?”
Best version of splinter ever.
What is going on in here?! 3:08, 3:22
Alternative title: Master Splinter being an absolute savage for 4 minutes straight
true true
0:42 CRYING AT THIS
There is nothing about Splinter forbidding the turtles to leave the sewers in season 3!
I miss Splinter
Me too.
2012 Master Splinter was 🔥
Splinter: And no TV! 😡
This version of splinter 1000 times better than the new movie one. Funny, witty, but still very wise and most importantly. He is real ninja
i love that there's both funny moments and serious moments
''Was that fair?''
''NO''
''Did I win?''
''I see your point''
That one got me loll
1:05😂😂😂😂
Splinter: You're right.
Casey: I am!?
Splinter: Yes. You were due.
Mikey: "Oh, yeah. Krognar marathon."
Splinter: (yeets a stick) *"And no T.V.!"*
“Oh the Olympics?”
Also these ones:
-Solar energy staff
-Can you smell a rock?
-I need cheese
-This means nothing
-Nibbling on cheese
-The Olympics
-Told you so
-You're a monster in and out
There are more, but this are the ones that I got at the top of my head
Idc what people say, this Splinter was the best one out of them all 😂
2:40
Definitely the series favorite
Best Sass Dad
This is the best Splinter ever
Best Sprinter version in the animated history of TMNT
1:02
Me: Oroku Saki......The Shredder.
This Splinter is really savage 🤣🤣🤣🤣
0:26 When your little brother gets in trouble and you see him getting whooped
Best Splinter, fight me.
I feel like id love this show ngl
0:05 that was quick answer especially from master splinter
"Is that a chipmunk?🤨"
“And where have you been?”
“Nowhere.”
“How did you get so hurt?”
“Oh,We were uh..”
“Hit…”
“By a…”
“Bus?”
🤨
The cheese phone will forever be the funniest moment to me. just how it gets dropped in the middle of an otherwise serious episode lol. i just started wheezing the first time i saw it
