The hell is she mad about getting her but saved by Raph? He's awesome and underrated in my opinion, sure he's kinda harsh and rough, but I think we all know how soft he is when he wants to be.✨
Yeah I don’t understand why she said that either. Raph is a no-nonsense turtle, and a good fighter, even if he can be a bit grumpy at times. If someone attempts to hurt Raph’s brothers/frineds, you can guarantee he’ll be the first to mess them up. I don’t think anyone would make fun of you for being saved by him. But like what the previous comments say, maybe yeah, April was just playing around.
I think she was angry because Raph was the one who gave her the hardest time over her not being able to keep up with them even mocking Donnie when he said April use my rope.
LITERALLY SAME. I think the 2012 has the best universe and characters (with the expecting of Apr*l) and I've recently tried to rewatch it but that ***** just makes it unwatchable for me
It’s so annoying how she repeatedly leads on Donnie with the occasional kiss or flirt, and then calls him a creep when he tries to turn it into a relationship
And She Also Assaults him In various scenes. She has kissed Donnie without his consent multiple times. She is just as deserving of the “creep” title as he is
@@KonekodenStudios he does 😭😭 multiple times... follows her around for no reason.. theyre both equally bad but donnie's definitely not excused from his behavior

@@itsthejavavoid First of all, I’m Autistic myself. And secondly, being autistic isn’t an excuse for stalking your crush, especially when Raph and the others are constantly calling Donnie out for being weird.
In the Pulverizer episode Donnie was being hypocritical when he told him "you can't put a sword under your pillow and wake up a samurai" well April thought she could do that and thought she was better than all the turtles even Karai and shinigami. No one said anything to her though
“Protect yourself!” Donnie was genuinely trying to help her and she was so mean to him 😭 Ngl, (and this is my opinion, I am not insulting anyone who likes this version of TMNT - I grew up with 2012) that was part of why I liked Rottmnt better. The (platonic) relationships are a lot less toxic than in 2012, and the writers of Rise themselves said that no turtle was going to be in a relationship again because of the awful mistakes they made with 2012 April. Again, this is just my opinion. TMNT 2012 has a special place in my heart too, since it was my childhood
I think she only said that because April doesn't like being perceived as helpless I mean to hurt it must feel pretty humiliating to always be stuck in the damsel in distress role. Even after they rescued her from the kraang the first time she felt like she was bringing the turtles into a fight that wasn't theirs when it wasn't true because the aliens were planning on taking over the whole world
@@unhinged_0 True but in season 3 he realized what he was doing was wrong but ApRiL decided to lead him on and after he realized this he stopped being weird although he did have his moments
Low high key really liked the episode when April became a Kunochi officially, and the gang found out that Karai was the new head of the Foot clan because Shinigami stole Aprils fan . Karai then proceeds to humiliatingly knock April on her backside.
You mean the one where April won by distracting and flipping Kairai down the stairs? If your referring to the episode I think you are, yeah as a kid watching beat down on April was pretty rough. if Kairai didn’t get distracted, then idk if April would’ve been able to even walk in the following episodes.
it breaks my heart how DIRTY the writers did her bc i LOVE 2012 april in theory, but they somehow made the WORST possible decision for EVERY PLOT POINT. it was always weird to me how they put in so much time to establish that april was part kraang and then seemed to only use it for like, having her say "hmmm i think there are kraang here" and nothing else
I used to have like a game for 2012 TMNT and she got kidnapped in one level and i had to defuse a bomb i wish i knew where the game was to make her explode
4:38 It’s crazy when you think about this logically and really analyze this scene. Her father is not the same as he was cognitively as well as physically. He brought her what he eats, like how cats bring dead mice to humans they love, or their kittens. He is on the level of an animal so she really shouldn’t expect him to get her what she wants. Even if his mind was the same as before does she really expect him to walk into a Little Caesar’s looking the way he does without being shot on sight? Like get it yourself girl, Man Bat is having a harder time than you.
I can definitely agree with you! What did Donnie see in her?! Even when I was little watching this show, I never liked April. It didn’t help that Donnie was my favorite turtle back then and seeing him get mistreated by his crush is so frustrating. Donnie deserved better. April literally played with his emotions, acted so ungrateful and childish when any of the turtles saved her, and is so annoying. Also you’re hilarious, your editing is top notch 😭🤣

@@itsthejavavoidshe may have not lead them on, but she definitely encouraged their behavior. The only ones who actually seemed to move on and learn from the love triangle were Donnie and Casey themselves and became good friends once the beef was squashed between them. April took zero accountability even though she played a part for how toxic the dynamic was between her, Donnie and Casey and I hate how the writers did that.
this was the first April I actually watched and it just made me immune to the "nooo you can't change April that muuuuuch" yap when the two later TMNT series came out, this entire adaptation was worse of a sin than changing her appearance like be fr 😭
Looking back, I feel bad for 2012 April, she isn't as bad as I remember her being as a kid, but girl was traumatised and like 16, if the writers had only been a bit kinder to her and written her a bit better she'd have been great, she had some funny moments. I think her and Donnie and Casey's whole thing really messed with her character too, it'd've been better if that had been scrapped tbh :/
The only one I could defend her on is the bit with her mutated bat dad. I always thought she was just playing up her reaction to get him to leave so she could come up with a plan or escape. Well, that and being embarrassed that Raph had to be the one to save her. But I could just be biased since he’s my least favorite turtle. But everything else, no excuse. And it always frustrated me that she acted like she didn’t have feelings for Donnie but then any time she’s captured, she called for Donnie specifically. And don’t get me STARTED on the kiss in the episode “A Foot Too Big.”
SOME CULTURED PEOPLE I cannot tell you how much I hate this version of April. She has some minor cool moments but most of the time she was insufferable. Yet people wanted to hate on Rise April and MM April because they were black yet they tried to defend this one. Amazing video and a new subscriber
I actually feel so bad for Donnie, yeah he was weird a lot but April was leading him on waaaaaaaay too much. Just say no and if he doesn't listen take it up with Splinter or something. Or say yes. COMMUNICATE!!!
@@pjdixon6199 yeah, so tell Splinter! Or just bluntly say you're not interested. Bro was a creep but just make it clear to him you don't like it, then stick with it.

I agree with you even tho I didn’t even watch the show since the design and characters Lores just ticking me off. 2012 April just makes 2003, 1987 and 2018 Aprils WAAAY MORE ATTRACTIVE and INTERESTING to me, thank you show 2012 for just making me love the other versions of Aprils 🙏🙏🙏 (my opinion)
This is why the 2003 adaptation of tmnt is my favorite, because they manage make all of the main characters compelling and unique and not once have any of them managed to piss me off even half as much as this single character!
Nah she had only practiced a week or two and managed to dodge all of Spliters hits at her in the episode with the Rat King- then she went back to being wimpy. Donnie, do better
Tmnt 2012 is easily my favorite show of all time. Incredible highs across the board. But i aint gonna deny, that some things were mishandled. April is one of those things.
As much as I hate to admit it, I did like shipping Donnie in April in the series, but honestly I almost wanted a scenario where Donnie met another girl momentarily in the series and she and him got along well enough that April would be jealous instead of Donnie for a change. It be nice to show that the world doesn’t completely with all around her.
To this day, I don't have even the slightest idea what they were trying to do with her character. At the beginning, she's a relatively bland, but passable addition, sort of typical for female charactes in shows targeted towards a mostly young male audience. But as the series goes on, she just gets more and more intolerable and nonsensical. Like, for the first couple of seasons, she very clearly has no romantic interest in Donnie, but then in the Bigfoot episode she just???? Kisses him???? Out of literally nowhere with zero buildup or even the slightest hint that her feelings have changed???? Then they just act like nothing happened at all??? They frame her as a good friend to all the turtles, but basically has no significant moments with any of them except Donnie, so we never feel any sort of bond or connection between her and the group, she doesn't really feel like one of them. Pretty much all her kunoichi training is done off-screen and her powers barely get anymore attention, so it always seems like she gets stronger out of nowhere. This, combined with the awful love triangle between her, Don, and Casey (who like her for seemingly no reason at all besides her looks, like they literally never talk about what they like about her or why they're attracted to her) really just make her come off as a Mary Sue in the worst way. I do think this is more the writer's fault than hers, they seem to flip-flop between not knowing what to do with her or just using her for their weird self-insert fantasies (which is super gross considering they made her underage in this show).
I remember as a kid I hated April but I didn’t know why, until I rewatch it… Honestly, the writers just don’t know how to write women, all the girls were written terribly. April had a cool concept but awful execution, and her character was made worse with all whole love triangle between Donnie and Casey. 2018 April has to be my favorite iteration; no awkward romance, great personality, and a genuine friendship with the brothers.
I FINALLY WATCHED THEM ALL and omg your right. I dunno if i rlly focused on april when i first saw the show tho. (I think i rememver finding her gods damned weird) . but i was more weirded out over how UTTWRLY TERRIBKE thr brothers treated Mikey. Like legit its rlly fuckin bad. Like the scene they go in his head and find a FIFTY FOOT TALL, WHITE EYED ANGRY AS FUCK MIKEY EMOTION IN HIS HEAD and it never comes up again. Like what is my boy going through!!!!! The 2012 brothers are to me like the MOST DYSFUNCTIONAL least like brothers, and more like 3 people who tolerate each other and 1 (mikey) who jist wants to be friends with everyone and get along. Take a chill pill. Like omg I was so mad at all their interactions with each other. Like donnie. I believe they nagged at him a lot for missing out on training or not doing as good as the oldest 2. Never you mind the fact he fucking made ALL THEIR TECH, ELECTRICITY ETC WORK. AND WITHOUT HIM THT PLACE WOULD BE A MORE MODEST CAVE WITH CANDLES EVERYWHERE. YEA HE DOESNT TRAIN MORE. HES BUSY DOING ALL THE TECH SHIT U BREAK, BRING OR THROW AT HIM. AND THEN ALSO TELL HIM TO DO AS FAST AS POSSIBLE. MY GODS. ITS LIKE HE DOESNT HAVE TIME!!! im also sure a lot of donnies stress is induced by the older brothers. Who he takes it out on them AND mikey... and mikey just gets caught in the cross fire of the 3 older ones. And put down as dumb cuz he wants to enjoy himself instead of stress 24/7. Prolly another reason his angers so big. He ignores it best he can and only lets small amounts out. Thats how i ended up with Mikey and Donnie as my new favs. There was a cute ass fic if i can find it abt them being B team Badass or bonding more or teaming up on their brothers theres a RLLY good fic. And finally. My god wqtching this now makes it so fuckin clear why i didnt like her. Its JUSF LIKE the kagome and inuyasha thing. Where the girls "abusive" and nor noticed snd knws what to say to make iniyasha liaten to hwr. My god i hate her xD Qnd now why april in 2k12. Never stood out to me. I wqs used to these from anime. Godmn she sucked even more then i thought

this was the first April I actually watched and it just made me immune to the "nooo you can't change April that muuuuuch" yap when the two later TMNT series came out, this entire adaptation was worse of a sin than changing her appearance like be fr 😭
Looking back, I feel bad for 2012 April, she isn't as bad as I remember her being as a kid, but girl was traumatised and like 16, if the writers had only been a bit kinder to her and written her a bit better she'd have been great, she had some funny moments. I think her and Donnie and Casey's whole thing really messed with her character too, it'd've been better if that had been scrapped tbh :/
The only one I could defend her on is the bit with her mutated bat dad. I always thought she was just playing up her reaction to get him to leave so she could come up with a plan or escape. Well, that and being embarrassed that Raph had to be the one to save her. But I could just be biased since he’s my least favorite turtle. But everything else, no excuse. And it always frustrated me that she acted like she didn’t have feelings for Donnie but then any time she’s captured, she called for Donnie specifically. And don’t get me STARTED on the kiss in the episode “A Foot Too Big.”
SOME CULTURED PEOPLE
I cannot tell you how much I hate this version of April. She has some minor cool moments but most of the time she was insufferable. Yet people wanted to hate on Rise April and MM April because they were black yet they tried to defend this one. Amazing video and a new subscriber
THE MEMES ARE SENDING ME 😭💀 im SO here for the 2k12 april slander 🤸🔊🔊
3:45- Raph:
"...You know what guys? Nevermind. She's tough, she can get herself out. Have a nice day. 😉"
5:39 that isn't really something she is proud of
I’ve forgotten all about her but seeing her again reminds me of the self-insert oc or y/n’s in those creepypasta fanfics😭
I actually feel so bad for Donnie, yeah he was weird a lot but April was leading him on waaaaaaaay too much. Just say no and if he doesn't listen take it up with Splinter or something. Or say yes. COMMUNICATE!!!
Bro what? Donnie was a major weirdo 💀
@@pjdixon6199 yeah, so tell Splinter! Or just bluntly say you're not interested. Bro was a creep but just make it clear to him you don't like it, then stick with it. April would just randomly flirt with or kiss him, then get mad when he tried to do the same. She needs to pick a lane and stick with it
Amber: Grow up, crybaby.
April: What was that?!
Amber: Maybe, that's the whole reason why you're such a brat. Honestly… *Your mother would be disappointed if she was never captured by the Kraang.*
The Royal Court: *Cheer for Amber*
12!Gia: I was tell her the same thing as you, Amber. Honestly I never expect that she's(12!April) way more a dumber than I thought. Heh, guess she's never face the facts.

can,t believe i had a crush on her as a child
Let's be real. No one found her annoying back then.
I remember me and my sister’s hyper fixation with 2012 TMNT, and we always GAGGED April the moment she appears on screen 😭
I agree with you even tho I didn’t even watch the show since the design and characters Lores just ticking me off. 2012 April just makes 2003, 1987 and 2018 Aprils WAAAY MORE ATTRACTIVE and INTERESTING to me, thank you show 2012 for just making me love the other versions of Aprils 🙏🙏🙏 (my opinion)
This is why the 2003 adaptation of tmnt is my favorite, because they manage make all of the main characters compelling and unique and not once have any of them managed to piss me off even half as much as this single character!
1:21 what meme is this?
Idk. I found a bunch of Memes on the CapCut template
@@DannyPhantomAddict7282 okai
The meme is a sped up version of a scene from Quenlin Blackwell's Best Friend Tag video.
2:31 😂
Nah she had only practiced a week or two and managed to dodge all of Spliters hits at her in the episode with the Rat King- then she went back to being wimpy. Donnie, do better
Tmnt 2012 is easily my favorite show of all time. Incredible highs across the board. But i aint gonna deny, that some things were mishandled. April is one of those things.
BRO THIS HAD ME CACKLING TO APRIL’S DANDRUFF 💀💀
Also everyone’s like ‘oMg WhY iS ShE gEtTiNg So MuCh HaTe?/1!///‘ like btch plsss 😭
A tmnt 2012 video in 2024??? Hell yeah count me in!
As much as I hate to admit it, I did like shipping Donnie in April in the series, but honestly I almost wanted a scenario where Donnie met another girl momentarily in the series and she and him got along well enough that April would be jealous instead of Donnie for a change. It be nice to show that the world doesn’t completely with all around her.
To this day, I don't have even the slightest idea what they were trying to do with her character. At the beginning, she's a relatively bland, but passable addition, sort of typical for female charactes in shows targeted towards a mostly young male audience. But as the series goes on, she just gets more and more intolerable and nonsensical. Like, for the first couple of seasons, she very clearly has no romantic interest in Donnie, but then in the Bigfoot episode she just???? Kisses him???? Out of literally nowhere with zero buildup or even the slightest hint that her feelings have changed???? Then they just act like nothing happened at all??? They frame her as a good friend to all the turtles, but basically has no significant moments with any of them except Donnie, so we never feel any sort of bond or connection between her and the group, she doesn't really feel like one of them. Pretty much all her kunoichi training is done off-screen and her powers barely get anymore attention, so it always seems like she gets stronger out of nowhere. This, combined with the awful love triangle between her, Don, and Casey (who like her for seemingly no reason at all besides her looks, like they literally never talk about what they like about her or why they're attracted to her) really just make her come off as a Mary Sue in the worst way. I do think this is more the writer's fault than hers, they seem to flip-flop between not knowing what to do with her or just using her for their weird self-insert fantasies (which is super gross considering they made her underage in this show).
I love 2012 April but this video cracked a smile out of me more than once 😭
When I was younger I used to tolerate 2012 April now that I'm older I genuinely don't like her.
Donnie: “APRIL! USE MY ROPE!”
Raph: “ApRiL uSe My RoPe”
0:44
Donnie: APRIL USE MY ROPE!
Raph: ApRiL uSe My RoPe!
4:59 always did wonder why she had that reaction
Although I aggressivly agree that TMNT’s April was very annoying, Donnie was weird at times so he ain’t innocent either ( love the vid btw! )

embarrassing🫢
Verosika popping up out of no where always kills me😂😂
I remember as a kid I hated April but I didn’t know why, until I rewatch it…
Honestly, the writers just don’t know how to write women, all the girls were written terribly. April had a cool concept but awful execution, and her character was made worse with all whole love triangle between Donnie and Casey.
2018 April has to be my favorite iteration; no awkward romance, great personality, and a genuine friendship with the brothers.
I COULD NOT have been raph. Her dissing him like 💀💀👊👊
This is why Karai finer
Donnie could not find a better women, seriously I'd stop simping the second she refuses my help
Okay thank god. I’m not the only one who was FRUSTRATED with April in 2012.
Lowk ,, I feel bad 4 April ,, All I see was her not wanting 2 break her friend’s heart but liek her kissing Donnie?? Ok btc pick a side ….

She’s literally just a little guy leave her aloneeee😭😭
Nah. Also I literally said in the description if you don’t like my content scroll.
0:49 SHE LITERALLY THINKS SHES ONE OF THEM🙏🏻😭
PICK MEEEEE
Im literally watching season 2 right now and the episode I'm watching is ALL ABOUT April😭
i'm so glad i'm not the only one who hates 2012 April. like i love TMNT 2012 but April made me want to scream...
Donnie should have been mine and I’m so mad that he was so obsessed with her 😂😂😂
I FINALLY WATCHED THEM ALL and omg your right. I dunno if i rlly focused on april when i first saw the show tho. (I think i rememver finding her gods damned weird) . but i was more weirded out over how UTTWRLY TERRIBKE thr brothers treated Mikey.
Like legit its rlly fuckin bad. Like the scene they go in his head and find a FIFTY FOOT TALL, WHITE EYED ANGRY AS FUCK MIKEY EMOTION IN HIS HEAD and it never comes up again. Like what is my boy going through!!!!!
The 2012 brothers are to me like the MOST DYSFUNCTIONAL least like brothers, and more like 3 people who tolerate each other and 1 (mikey) who jist wants to be friends with everyone and get along. Take a chill pill.
Like omg I was so mad at all their interactions with each other.
Like donnie. I believe they nagged at him a lot for missing out on training or not doing as good as the oldest 2. Never you mind the fact he fucking made ALL THEIR TECH, ELECTRICITY ETC WORK. AND WITHOUT HIM THT PLACE WOULD BE A MORE MODEST CAVE WITH CANDLES EVERYWHERE.
YEA HE DOESNT TRAIN MORE. HES BUSY DOING ALL THE TECH SHIT U BREAK, BRING OR THROW AT HIM. AND THEN ALSO TELL HIM TO DO AS FAST AS POSSIBLE.
MY GODS. ITS LIKE HE DOESNT HAVE TIME!!! im also sure a lot of donnies stress is induced by the older brothers. Who he takes it out on them AND mikey... and mikey just gets caught in the cross fire of the 3 older ones. And put down as dumb cuz he wants to enjoy himself instead of stress 24/7.
Prolly another reason his angers so big. He ignores it best he can and only lets small amounts out.
Thats how i ended up with Mikey and Donnie as my new favs. There was a cute ass fic if i can find it abt them being B team Badass or bonding more or teaming up on their brothers theres a RLLY good fic.
And finally. My god wqtching this now makes it so fuckin clear why i didnt like her. Its JUSF LIKE the kagome and inuyasha thing. Where the girls "abusive" and nor noticed snd knws what to say to make iniyasha liaten to hwr. My god i hate her xD
Qnd now why april in 2k12. Never stood out to me. I wqs used to these from anime. Godmn she sucked even more then i thought

You want a cookie? 🍪
I remember watching this cartoon when I was a kid, I honestly didn't give a shit about April's existence and still.
I love Raph so much for being the character to say what I was thinking but out loud and in-universe
I’ll never not be able to think not think of 2012 April as a cringy y/n character….
