NUMBER 10:
"The Kraang conspiracy"
Season 2 Episode 19

Kicking off our list with a fun and surprising twist on the famous April O'Neil. The turtles and April meet a new friend who has been spying on Kraang for months and they see that they are having loads of soldiers prepare for invasion. With this mission, April feels an energy spruce and could hear the Kraang as they meditate. She was a psychic or so. But the most special moment was Donnie's sarcastic 'Kraang Sweet 16' comment. Later on they were planning to make April clones for April's DNA was very important for them. The turtles end up to fight a lot of Aprils in order to know who's the real April. Their hardest challenge was the false clone of April and once they escape, Donnie got a glimpse of April's DNA, discovering she has some special mutagen blood in her veins, showing when she was born, she had some relative related to the Kraang, which passed down to her and made her half human, and half mutant.

NUMBER 9:
"Riddle of the Aeons"
Season 4 Episode 5

This was a very great episode for making others have nightmares about demons. In outer space other than New York, the turtles, April, Casey, and the fugitoid, explore a new planet to find another missing piece. Unfortunately, this place was filled with pure evil and had nothing but even demon bats flying over them. This much negative energy from the planet made the gang go insane and want to hurt each other. Luckily they were able to control theirselves in the end, especially with Leo hugging Raph (such a beautiful moment 😭). The gang walked into a hidden part of the planet and found the missing piece. Unfortunately the Tricertons were there in time to take the missing piece as well. They take it away and block their entrance so they couldn't be followed. But then April used her powers to sense the energy of the missing star of the planet and found a way out. They ran and ran all the way up to the top and place the star where it belong. With this light of hope that was brought back, the demons were transformed back into the Aeons, beautiful aliens (that look like angels). They gave the gang a special small gift of their appreciation, filled with luck and help. Their planet was safe and beautiful once again.

This episode kept others hungry for food but also had some stomach turns. This episode was star by Mikey who kept eating too many pizzas.

He follows them into the pizza place of Antonio and discovers the owner of the pizzas was mutated into a pizza monster wanting to stuff the other humans in pizza flesh.

Mikey was sigh with relief and went to bed, as the last piece of pizza watched him sleep like the creepy he is.

A very old episode but still good for today's date, especially for the fan girls of Raphael.

Because of this, the Kraang spot them and attack. After the battle, the old man seemed to have them on video off of his phone. They lost him after a siren sound and had to hear the angry yells of their sensei. After a lessons with the arrows, Raph tries to ask politely for the video but the man refused and wanted a million dollars (which I don't see how this video could make much money but who cares? XD). The Kraang return and kidnap the man from the turtles in another hideout. Because this was Raph's fault, Leo demands he goes home. Raph talks to Spike thinking he's the only one who understands him, but Splinter walks in and explains his story about his life before becoming a rat.

Before we announce our number one pick, let's look at a few honorable mentions.

HONORABLE MENTIONS

"I think his name is Baxter Stockman"
Season 1 Episode 5

"Mutagen Man unleashed"
Season 2 Episode 4

"New girl in town"
Season 1 Episode 14

"Karai's vendetta"
Season 1 Episode 23

NUMBER 1:
"Trans-Dimensional Turtles"
Season 4 Episode 10

This episode blew everyone away with the crossover of the 80 Ninja Turtles and the 2012 turtles. This was totally number one because of how crossovers are very popular and for the fact they had to save both of their worlds more two different kinds of Kraang. Not only do we get to see them in two dimensional of 2012 turtles, and three dimensional for the 80 turtles, but we also get to be introduced to the comic Ninja Turtles. This was number one for the fact that even the new Ninja Turtles to be shock seeing their old selves. They didn't really like how they were in a different dimension, but that's what made it more fun: their fighting of not liking how they sound or look is always a number one choice of judgement. Plus, the way how the 2012 turtles are seen in the two dimensional world probably has fans starting to draw them in this form as it helps and improves the art more. The 80 turtles are still amazing for some viewers now and now a crossover made it even better.
