Top 10 Best Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Characters

Leonardo is still my favorite Ninja Turtle. I have action figures of him, and it's really fun playing as him in video games.

The other Ninja Turtles are great too, especially in both Turtles in Time games. That one is one of the best! I also enjoy the games based on the reboot and the CGI movie. They remind me of Double Dragon games, Spider-Man games, and the fighting game Smash-Up, which is similar to Super Smash Bros.

I've been a huge fan since I was seven, eight, nine, ten, and eleven. The franchise has had all kinds of comebacks, and I love them!

Since childhood, I've always been into Raph. He is just a raw, relatable, real person. He's got confidence, maybe a little bit stubborn and prideful, but again, relatable. The rest of the characters, though I like them, seem painted, telling, and obviously made up. Raph is the most real-life character of the story. Unpredictable, loving his friends one moment and hating his enemy the next, then defying his friends while experiencing what it's like to be an enemy. An enigma.

Raphael went straight one-on-one with Shredder. Leo has technique, but Raph has that stealth. His badass angry attitude takes him to another level.

Honestly, Mikey's my favorite turtle, but I actually think the others are great too!

I find all of the turtles great, but Mikey has been catching my heart lately. Yes, I know he's a goofball, and some of you think he's "semi-retarded," but I actually think the opposite at heart.

The reason he's my favorite is that he may not be the brightest, but he usually brings the right, positive vibes. He's also very sweet and fun-loving, which I really love about him. That scene where he hugs and comforts Raph is just so heartwarming!

I really do love him at heart. One more thing I have to say is that everyone can love whichever turtle they want. It really doesn't matter, like sheesh…

Donnie is the best Ninja Turtle. I am also very relatable to him, and I am like him. He has the best qualities and mean green fighting skills, as well as being a huge techie. The Nickelodeon version is the best of Donnie.

Donnie is smart and has always been the one to start the chemistry between the TMNT that helps them fight better. He should be the leader of the TMNT because he is, of course, the best character.

He's the best, and I always looked up to him when I was little. He was so smart and nerdy, and he is always underestimated. He deserves to be at least in the top 3.

Shredder in the 1990 movie was the best character in any TMNT movie or cartoon. In The Secret of the Ooze, he was disappointing (he didn't even fight).

Shredder is the number one villain because he's the strongest villain, but Splinter is the strongest.

He is wise and gets out of problems 10 times easier than any other cartoon I have ever seen.

Effortlessly cannot be defeated. He only died in 2012 because it was a surprise attack.

Pink Brain Krang, inside a great soldier, was a mutant, just like a woman.

The 2012 Bebop is one of the funniest fictional characters ever. He is also a diverse fighter with different projectiles, a dancing fighting style, and the ability to go invisible. An excellent character.

A dangerous pig and human mutant.

The coolest by far. The way a man with some sports equipment is willing to fight off alien invasions and Ninja wars is just awesome, and it makes him like Batman.

Casey is a vigilante, and he's a pretty good fighter, but he's usually solo.

Karai! I was going to vote Raph for the win, but noticed Karai needs more love. 2012 Karai was this awesome and multifaceted punk girl, a tough ninja sister with uniquely rad hair and makeup. Why are you all hating on her?

He's a strong fighter, and he loves Mikey's stew.

A threat for sure, as he can manipulate any technology to trap foes.
