North America
Coming off the again of the unique animated collection’s fifth season (and extra in keeping with the darker tone that we might see in later episodes) the North American cowl is all doom and gloom. Raph stands, grimacing within the foreground whereas his brothers take out foes massive and small behind. The background even incorporates the titular Manhattan Mission, with the enduring New York borough floating within the sky.
Japan
Now that is… completely different. Sure, the Turtles do look a bit of indignant, however this Japan cowl is worlds away from the grit of the NA counterpart. There isn’t any preventing, no bleak background nor a floating metropolis. It is all shiny colors and chunky turtles over right here. Maybe not probably the most game-related cowl on the market, nevertheless it certain is eye-catching.
Thanks for voting! We’ll see you subsequent time for one more spherical of the Field Artwork Brawl.
