as a child , i always like Rafiel the best, as an adult, i learn more towards leonardo. in ghostbusters i always like Peter the best too, sarcasm is my love language lol
for a laugh, i asked chatgpt why cartoon characters always fall into similar arhitypes and here's what it said:
Carl Jung proposed that all characters in stories fall into universal archetypes rooted in the collective unconscious. These archetypes appear in myths, legends, and pop culture, including franchises like Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and Sex and the City.
The Hero – Leonardo (the leader), Carrie (the protagonist navigating life and love).
The Rebel (Outlaw) – Raphael (the hot-headed fighter), Samantha (the rule-breaker in dating).
The Sage (Wise Mentor) – Splinter (the wise master), Miranda (the practical, realistic friend).
The Everyman (Relatable Character) – Michelangelo (the fun-loving, goofy one), Charlotte (the traditional, romantic friend).
i would like to say though, i don't think if i was a chick i would identity with sigma slut Samantha
Michelangelo was my favorite as a kid, but my personality is Donatello.
They should do an episode where Donatello becomes a bitcoiner and tries to orange pill the other 3, and then Splinter comes in and says something deep about monetary economics.
Obviously, Mikey ultimately gets orange pilled because he likes the color
You're probably a bit of both. Cartoons are usually an exaggeration of a characteristic. We're a lot more nuanced. I'd never describe myself as a Leonardo, but certainly have been when the occasion calls for it.
Kuririn from Dragon Ball & etc is who I relate most to in the anime and manga.
He doesn’t quit, ever, faces the worst no matter what and even with fear moves forward. He does not have any super powers but does super things. He is Everyman made large.
Rocko was always a personal favorite. Anxiety riddled by externalities, crushed by monotony, with an underlying rage bubbling under the surface, just trying to get by, but with a seeming inability to break his own negative aspects. Loves hanging with his dog.
I might relate to him now more than when I was a kid 😂
Ginji Amano (天野 銀次?)Despite Ginji's dark past, his behavior is very energetic, and is a friendly boy with a strong sense of justice. He makes friends easily, often without trying, and is also very reliable and open towards others.
