I own the entire Alex Rider series and I want to reread them, but I’m going to be reading them on a flight and it’s like 10 books and I already have to pack for like 2 weeks and yeah. Someone help me out.
TMNT 2012’s Wiki says that Splinter’s year of death was 2013, meaning that season 1 up until the end of season 4, and all that crazy shit the turtles went through during those 4 seasons, took place in the span of only 1 year.
In the S2 finale, April says this after it’s reveal Irma is a robot: “My best friend for the past year was a Kraang?!” And even though Irma was introduced in S2, it was confrimed in S1 that April has known Irma since before her introduction because we see Irma in April’s phone contacts in the ep Mousers Attack.
If that’s not enough Casey adds this later in the S2 finale: “This is worse than that giant Technodrome thing last year!”
Also let’s add that in the beginning of S3, after Leo wakes up from his coma, he finds out that they’ve been living at the farmhouse for around three months.
Not to mention the six month trip in space confirmed by Fugitoid at the beginning of S4 with also us learning that while in space and meeting their 80s counterparts and quickly heading back to Earth, we learn the present turtles are currently in the S2 ep Wormquake as it’s revealed by the end of the ep with the 80s turtle fighting the Kraang worm and later Tiger Claw who cuts himself out of the creature, which is how the previous S2 ep ended. So at the very least, from the S2 ep Wormquake up until the season 3 finale took place in span of less than six months.
Also in the S3 ep The Croaking Mikey tells Napoleon that him (and his brothers) are STILL 15 despite it being confirmed in canon that little over a year has passed since the turtles 15th birthday/mutation day!!
So with all this information confrimed by canon, it’s impossible for the show to only be in the span of one year. At the very least two years have gone by, maybe three, but not one.
I feel I should also add that in the S4 ep City at War Leo explains that April’s kunoichi ceremony will take place the night of a full moon, and Raph later makes a comment after they meet and fight Shinigami that April’s ceremony is on a Sunday.
So maybe we could use that info to figure out what year the turtles are in by S4 by figuring out the years a full moon happened on a Sunday between the years 2012 and 2017.
