Hiya there, I'm new, if u wanna talk 'bout UY here, this is the place! :) . I also am here to make a poll. I am also a TMNT (Ninjaturtles) fan. My poll involves some charecters from there as well

Hi SamuraiJr. Welcome to the Dojo.

I won't take your poll, because I might be a bit biased. However, my favorite TMNT is Leonardo. Both Mirage and I have tried to cutlivate the relationship between Leo and Usagi.

:D I don't know why, but I chose Master Splinter. For some reason, even though I Love Usagi and Leonardo-- I always think that older and Wiser means better a fighter. Thats just me ^_^

Yea!- Welcome to the Dojo too!

Gotta go with the bunny on this one.

All bias aside, he does seem to be the best swordsman.

He certainly has the body count...well over 3000 skull thought balloons have occurred since issue one. :wink:

That time in UY #10 (Fantagraph) when Leo one-upped Usagi never sat right with me. Though Leo was every bit as serious about his training as Usagi was, I believe that Usagi had a far more accredited master and that his time serving under Lord Mifune game him more valuable combat experience.

So that takes care of Leo and Splinter.

Usagi is definitely a more serious and precise fighter than Gen, but Gen would probably fight dirty. That might complicate things.

I have no idea who the other two on the list are.
