Okay we don't talk about this episode because it hurt me emotionallyShe Ra, Season 1, Episode 11: "The Promise".
Dark as hell ending that set the arcs for the show's two main characters.
Steven Universe, he's trying to learn to control his transformation powers, and becomes this body horror amalgamation of cute cats, it's pretty terrifyingI don't think I can take "pure ownage" seriously ...
wtf is that
The difference is that 2003 Turtles was marketed as "the edgy turtles". All of the branding and character designs aimed towards gritty, angry, edgy. The tone is set pretty early on and you can see that they were aiming for more of a X-Men and Batman TAS style cartoon rather than the 80's Saturday morning antics of it's predecessor.The TMNT 2003 series got away with even more violence. They actually decapitated Shredder on-screen in the first season.
That episode is fucking wildThe one episode of Teen Titans where Robin goes nuts from illusions of Slade and the bombs he thought wee planted on some bridge.
Watching this as a jaded adult, I think I'm more touched by the fact that Mr. Burns was charitable enough to give Homer his job back after he played Mr. Burns's head like a bongo and literally burnt the bridge to the plant.
An episode of Steven Universe. I forget which one, but the show occasionally dabbles in body-horror for its bits.I don't think I can take "pure ownage" seriously ...
wtf is that
That shit was like a punch to the gut.Okay we don't talk about this episode because it hurt me emotionally

2012 TMNT pulls you in with more of an emphasis on comedy and fight choreography. It also goes out of its way to blend references to the original comic, live action movies and the 80's cartoon. The writers grew up loving the franchise and it shows.
But when it gets "real" it catches you off guard completey. And the emotional moments hit me so much harder.

[Adult Swim] We LOVED the ending of season one! For season two take it in that direction, go Dark.That shit was like a punch to the gut.
Also, the two parter Nature episodes of Moral Orel changed the whole tone of the show.
You guys are missing the GOAT
No cartoon ever got me as emotional as this as a kid. This episode is the single best thing to ever come out of the Transformers franchise.
'Moral Orel Team' Maybe we should give more context on what happened in those first two seasons to explain the ending to season two?[Adult Swim] We LOVED the ending of season one! For season two take it in that direction, go Dark.
'Moral Oral Team' Will do!
-Season Two-
[Adult Swim] Oh, oh sweet merciful god, not that dark!

This part in Korra.
I was like "did they seriously just do that?"
