- —Michelangelo
Michelangelo is one of the main protagonists of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles series. He appeared in the sixth episode of Death Battle, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Battle Royale, where he fought against his brothers Leonardo, Donatello, and Raphael.
History
Michelangelo was a pet turtle along with three others bought by a boy, but were accidentally dropped into a sewer drain. At the time, a man named Hamato Yoshi had been hiding in the sewer, and upon finding the turtles, he welcomed them with open arms. At some point after, the Turtles and Hamato were exposed to a mysterious glowing substance, causing the turtles to mutate into humanoid forms, and Hamato to mutate into an anthropomorphic rat. Seeing potential, Hamato trained his new sons in the art of ninjutsu, and naming them after some of his favorite Renaissance artists – Michelangelo, Leonardo, Raphael, and Donatello. Michelangelo was given an orange mask and carries around nunchucks. He is lazy, undisciplined, and easily distracted, but has yet to ever fully drop his spirits or be any step behind his brothers in terms of combat skill or ninja ability. Despite his comedic nature, when the mood is significantly darkened, Mikey will often provide just the right amount of optimism and bright spirit to help lift his brothers up.
