The last frame reminds me of the scene from when the shredder broke into their base and Mikey was throwing his weapon at the Shredder with his eyes closed
two words..........PERFECT PORTRAYAL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! OMGOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO I cannot DESCRIBE to you how PEERRRRRFFEECCCTTT THIS IS!!!!!!!!!!!
This is gonna be a long comment because I have so many thoughts about this. We all remember that Leo's the face man. On the surface, it's just Leo being arrogant and saying he's the most handsome, but when you look a little deeper, even this simple role is pretty complex. Leo doesn't just talk up his own strengths. He hypes up his team. He's their cheerleader, telling them they can do this. He's also the one who does most of the talking during encounters, either witty banter to annoy their enemies or sustained conversations about goals. He's deliberately drawing attention to himself, which means his brothers can slip under the radar to either attack or escape, and that Leo ends up receiving most of their enemies animosity because they think he's annoying. He literally states in response to 'didn't she try to kill you?' with 'Who hasn't?'. He's the canary in a coal mine, giving early warning of threats as he's usually the first one to speak up or touch the weird object, disguised as mere arrogance. Plus, he constantly projects confidence. He makes his brothers less afraid because hey, Leo's still spouting one-liners while smirking, so it can't be that bad. Plus, it's hard to be scared of the villain when they look like they're on the verge of a stroke because they're so angry at Leo. Instead of being scared, they're exasperated at Leo's antics. The thing is, we know that it's all a mask. It's the Leo version of Dr. Delicate Touch or Dr. Feelings, except Leo never takes it off. We've only ever seen it crack when his brothers are in trouble, and he's the only one left. Even as he stared down the Kraang, he never stopped quipping. He LITERALLY SACRIFICED HIMSELF, and he was STILL QUIPPING! He was STILL SMIRKING! But whenever his brothers got separated from him and put in danger, we start seeing traces of Leo's true insecurities, how little he values himself. He became the faceman to help his brothers, and he keeps it up as long as his brothers might need it. Even if they're not currently there, if there's even the slightest possible chance they might walk in or might hear him, he won't let his mask drop in even his worst moments.
Bruh everyone thinks this is how he is after the movie but he would js keep being the way he was throughout the whole show but love the vid none the less Pls dont attack me
