With the reveal on what the story is gonna be leaves me with more than a few questions.
First off, yeah the fact that April is black in this story is annoying. I don't understand why every new thing with TMNT has to have this new version of April when she already had an established look that's been with the franchise since its inception. Yes, I am also tired of teenage April as well and just wish they'd stop doing it for the sake of having a forced romance with the one of the turtles. (I find that to be gross.)
Secondly, so the Turtles and everyone else are already gonna be a part of the Naruto universe? Fucking huh?!? So am I just supposed to belive that TMNT and there usual shinnanigans are just happening in the background of everything and just now people are starting to notice? That's a bit much to buy friends, not gonna lie.
Third, for these characters to exist already in the world of Naruto actively clashes with the themes of the universe. Obviously Naruto is an alternate take on earth where people can manipulate the energy in their bodies to do crazy shit, and not to mention that all the cultures featured in Naruto are heavily inspired by Japanese culture. So I'm supposed to belive names like "Baxter Stockman," is a name that organically came to be in the world of Naruto? Not saying that unusual names aren't already a thing in Naruto but they almost always have a logical reason on why that character is called the the name they're givin.
This whole thing just leaves me feeling afraid for the quality of story that's gonna be told here, which is sad for me because I fucking love these characters and I want to see how these characters would react when seeing each other at their base states. Fucking IDW, why do you lot always feel the need to jerk me around like this? Well, I'm curious how you guys feel?
