What is the connection to One Piece in the new Ninja Turtles series?
The latest installment in the Ninja Turtles franchise, Tales of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, is an American animated series adapted from the beloved comic book series of the same name. The show premiered on August 9, 2024, and debuted the first 12 episodes of its first season on the same day.
During one of the episodes, a group of characters makes an effort to disarm a bomb.
