Review: On Volume 8 we have the episode of "Lone Raph and Cub", in which Raph, in yet another of his hot headed moments, storms out of the liar in search for Splinter, who disappeared after the fight with Shredder. While searching for his master, Raph runs across a kid being chased by mobsters. After butting heads like a pair of bulls, the two finally manage to get along long enough for Raph to help the kid get back his mother. While the episode does tie in nicely to the "Search for Splinter" arc, you can watch it on it's own with out too much trouble.
Next we have the first part of the "Search for Splinter" two part story arc, in which the turtles are upset and frustrated as their search for Splinter turns up nothing, when Donatello remembers the Guardians. After tailing one of the Guardians leads them to a very plain looking office building, a little investigation shows that the building belongs TCRI, the company whose canister contained the ooze that made the turtles, and Splinter, who and what they are today. Now the really want into that building, so they enlist the help of everyone favorite whackbag and his lady love, Casey and April!
In the Second part of the "Search for Splinter" arc, the Turtles make it inside the TCRI building only to find that things aren't always what they seem! Watching this epsiode some of the fans from the old show might recognize the character design of the alien race, thw "wootrons" (Okay, so I'm not entirely sure about the name, but that's what it sounds like) as KRANG (I was like OMGDUDE It's KRANG~<3! when I saw that.), the evil, giant pulsating brain, complete with the robot bodies that carry them around in the stomach cavity. And we thought only Mikey thought with his stomach!
All in all I love this disk, just as much as I do all the others before it. It's a great entry into the "Turtles in Space" arc, even if some of the lines were a bit tacky and shouldn't have been used in the situation, but nothing really made me cringe.
