Mean and Green: Why I Love the Ninja Turtles as Much as I Do

Hey, everyone!

So I've got another Ninja Turtle post for you. I know I talk about them a lot, and I'm not really sorry, ha ha. But that's what this post is about. I decided to take a look at why I love the Ninja Turtles so much. I can honestly say it's one of the few fandoms that I could consider myself to be obsessed with.

Now I have other shows and books that I love, like Doctor WhoSherlock, Batman, and various anime shows. But I don't love them like I love the Ninja Turtles. I loved the original comics, I enjoy the 90s series, I adore the 2003 and 2012 series, and I love the movies. I look up fan art on Pinterest and Deviantart, and I've read fanfiction. I even used to play with the action figures as a kid, (well, they were my brothers' action figures, but meh). For a good portion of my life, I've been a fan of Ninja Turtles.

So here's the question: why? Why would I love a story as odd as Ninja Turtles? Why would I love something that was obviously catered to boys? Well, that's what I'm here to find out. Here's why I love the Ninja Turtles.
