Taking place in present day New York City, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles takes as its backdrop the glittering towers of Manhattan and the grimy depths of its deepest sewers, while following the adventures of four humanoid turtles and a six-foot-tall rat (Master Splinter). One day, while living a life in seclusion with his four pet turtles, the once-human, Splinter, encountered mysterious green ooze that covered him and his pets. Overcome by the mutagen, he was transformed into a rat and his four pets became humanoid turtles. Fearing persecution from humans, he brought the turtles underground and raised them, training them to become ninjas. Years have passed since that point and the four turtles are now headstrong teenagers, filled with the confidence of youth and a burning desire to see the world…
Emerging from their sewer lair, the reptile brothers confront the wondrous world of New York City, facing villains more dangerous and pizza more delicious than anything they could have imagined.
Through battles with Shredder, the Kraang and loads of super-powerful mutants, the Turtles learn to rely on themselves and each other as they grow to become the heroes they are destined to be.
