Turtle who's the other number 1 and resident hot head The Imcomparable no matter how many versions of him are there RaphaelPossess the right thinking. Only then can one receive... the gifts of strength, knowledge, and peace. I have tried to channel your anger, Raphael... but more remains. Anger clouds the mind. Turned inward, it is an unconquerable enemy. You are unique among your brothers... for you choose to face this enemy alone. But as you face it, do not forget them. And do not forget me.„~ Splinter to Raphael about his anger.
Raphael is very hot-tempered and is particularly the most lone wolf of his family, easily very susceptible and quite stubborn. Although he can seem quite distant from others, Raphael loves his family deeply, Splinter being one of the few people who understand him and when he disappeared Raph was left confused and angry for a long time. One of Raph's most positive traits is his tendency to make jokes or sarcasm.
So Raph's definitely on you can depend on.
Just like other incarnations, Raphael is the muscular hothead of the ninja turtle quartet. However in this incarnation, Raph can be erratic emotionally. He is brave, daring, free spirited, and while Michelangelo is the comedian of the turtle quartet, Raphael is the most sardonic and sarcastic. He is very athletically adept. He is also very close with his allies, friends and pets. However, he can be very willful, stubborn, incredibly rude, and aggressive. He is also the most relentless of the turtles, his relentless ferocity makes him a deadly fighter.
Raph loves to fight, wrestle, and trash the place. If there’s a brawl, Raphael would love to join in the fight whenever you like it or not. Because of his passion for fighting, he would fight first and reflect and ask questions later.
He doesn’t tolerate offensive teasing from anyone. When people and or even his brothers mocks him, he would put up a fight. When Mikey is teasing him in his mischievous ways, Raph would either yell at him or beat him up.
Hypocritically, he mocks and taunts his family, allies, and his enemies, often coming up with rude remarks. Raph is not afraid to make light of very dark situations. He would make jokes about dejected and morose people who are miserable. On rare occasions, one of his brothers (especially Leo) or even his sensei may slap him in retaliation.
He’s also very cocky and competitive. When he wins games and duels against his brothers, he will rub it in his brothers’ faces, much to their dismay.
Raph can be unpredictable, and his ferocious temper can sometimes frighten enemies even his brothers. He can be very aggressive when trying to solve problems, even with his family and allies. Sometimes during training, Raph can get hostile, and he would do anything he can to beat his brothers in sparring matches. When he feels misunderstood or irritated (which unfortunately happens a lot), he would erupt at any given moment. At times he gets so infuriated he would ”quit” the team (more like walk out the team). This type of situation happened 27 times ("Mutant Gangland "), according to his younger brother Donatello . When he‘s calm, he goes back to rejoin the team.
Raph and Leo’s relationship is a half-love/half-hate relationship. Raph hates the fact that Leo is chosen to be leader. Sometimes, Raph is willing to follow suit and cooperate with Leo, and other times, he’ll instigate. When Raph does instigate, he'll either talk back, get physical with him, or even try to take over as leader. In two episodes during this incarnation, Raph has successfully taken over Leo’s lead after Leo gives in (e.g. "New Girl in Town " and "Follow The Leader "). However Leo himself in at times greatly impressed at Raph's own leadership skills.
Raph’s rebellious behavior gets in the way of thinking before going into the situation. Sometimes Raph would go down and think before going into situations, and other times he will rebel. Because of his mood swings, his behavior is inconsistent. Sometimes when he actually think things through and tells brothers that they need a plan, it can surprise his brothers. Raph is only angry because he loves and cares for his brothers so much.
Despite all this, Raph does have a soft side with his two pets Spike (which turned into Slash), and then in Season 4 Chompy, whom he adores both so much. His pets always calm him down. Sometimes, he shows his soft side to his family and friends. He would do anything to protect them, but he would never admit it in order to stay "hardcore" and to protect his pride. On some occasions, he even has a soft side towards Mikey, as seen in "New Friend, Old Enemy ", "New Girl in Town ". In "The Wrath of Tiger Claw ", he even hugs Mikey, considering he is the youngest, and therefore his little brother. Raph genuinely like his All Stars friends, though he demands Plucky tell him who Made Immature Radioactive Samurai slugs so he can sue.
Raph is also the only turtle, much to his brothers and friends great disbelief, to be actually have a girlfriend. The lovely lizard Lady Mona Lisa (1987-95 style)
Raphael's most notable ability is his brute strength which is only increased by his anger. His ability to get angry quickly allows him to defeat highly skilled opponents like Leonardo on few occasions (though Leo himself best him on several occasions) and even managed to gain the upper hand against Super-Shredder before eventually later gets defeated by Super-Shredder.

Raph trapping Leo's arm
- Okinawan Kobudō (Sai): Raphael was trained by Splinter in the use of sais. Although Raph can use his sais for their intentional purpose of trapping his enemies weapons within their prongs, he also uses them in a manner akin to daggers, stabbing and piercing his opponents. He can also twirl sais in a similar manner to Donnie's bo-staff twirling abilities, allowing him to deflect shuriken and lasers. When holding them in a reverse grip between his fingers, Raph can use the pommel of his sais to increase the effect of his punches.
- Shurikenjutsu: Raphael can throw shuriken with remarkable accuracy.
- Tegaki Proficiency: In "Vision Quest ", Raphael forged his own custom-made Tegaki, which resembled a pair of Tekkō-kagi but with only two blades. He wielded them as though they were gauntlets.
