If you saw what looked like a giant ninja mask wearing anthropomorphic turtle stuffed into a trench coat, are you going to say anything?
The disguise is just a courtesy to let the average human have plausible deniability.
Didn't April also put them on the news all the time, calling them turtles? π€ I think the humans just didn't care. Why would they? The turtles weren't the ones robbing stores and beating up random people or throwing the city into Dimension X every week. That was, in fact, a human and a giant sentient brain.
That's the usual state of brains, isn't it?
Er... Ok but do brains usually pilot a human shaped robo... Oh. Oh shit.
Counterpoint: gestures broadly
Presumably this means sapient, as in the thing humans have but other animals don't (the term sentient is often misused to mean sapient). In which case, no. Most brains are not sapient. Only humans are as far as we're aware currently, but definitely not ants and other insects that far outnumber us.
Not in America
It's New York, they could easily go pretty much anywhere without being clocked as anything weird.
Isnt there a dude in New York who just runs around wearing a rat mask? I feel like the turtles are slightly more normal, also Vermin Supreme is close enough that at any given time he could theoretically be in New York.
I don't know whether you're trying to scare New Yorkers or pique the interest of SchrΓΆdinger groupies π€
Probably some sort of punker.
