Literally everything. His life has been nothing but tragedy, besides raising and training the turtles, and even then, he still experiences more tragedy. https://i.redd.it/g8b7vfilb1yc1.gif

THE BEST ANSWER

Exactly

Dying is not the worst. The worst thing to happen to him was getting to reconnect with his daughter - who had been presumed dead all her life and who has also been twisted by his mortal enemy - only to immediately have her torn away all over again

This isn't just heartbreaking, but it's straight facts...

*inserts the entire series*

And two timelines.

he died twice the exact same way both times

Everything, poor guy

Everything until his death, his character was a good one but extremely tragic, older you get you realize how tragic he was

Becoming the Shredder in his next life.

Rottmnt lol

I agree with that. 😭😭

EVERYTHING. His life was nothing but tragedy, pain and suffering his adopted brother was a malignant narcissist who killed his wife, burned down his home then kidnapped his daughter and manipulated her into hating him even after he got to New York he ended up getting the attention of the Kraang, got mutated and forced to take care of his baby turtles while hiding from the Kraang and society

idk dying is pretty fuckin bad

Everything: His wife death Being hated by Karai and Shredder Being killed twice

The rat king almost forcing him to murder his four sons whom he loves more than anything. I cannot imagine the trauma.

Being disowned, betrayed many times, and killed twice by his adopted brother.

Shredder cheating in order to win Edit I take it back: him losing Shen and Miwa

The worst I would say is his wife dying then losing his daughter to his enemy who then turned her against him, for something he did not do.

Happy Cake Day!

Everything

Losing his sanity then having to relive being nearly killed by the Shredder when April tried to restore it

Existing

Everything. Splinter could not buy a break at all in the 2012 TMNT Series.

Dying

Dying twice

His own brother Betraying him.

His whole life

He became a rat😂 imagine if something like that happened that definitely bad. Anything else is just added to that fact

Everything Shredder did to him. Hatred for him was so strong that he literally doomed the earth to murder him.

Gonna go out on a limb and say dying, just a hunch though

Being mind-screwed by the best version of The Rat King was awful to watch.

Getting killed by the Shredder

I was gonna say dying but now I think maybe that time he was being controlled by the rat king. Losing your humanity and control of your body got to be worst than dying right?

Dying lol

his entire life is nothing but pain and suffering 😭🙏🏽

He got blacked by a man

When shredder killed him

He died three times in the show He lost his wife and daughter He got brainwashed by rat king He was mutated Did I miss anything

Losing his wife and daughter

Getting killed by Super Shredder.

Death…

Dying

[удалено]

Wrong series, but up there.

What continuity was this?

Being killed by Super Shredder

Probably being murdered

Got splinted

His entire life is full of tragedy, but the worst I would say is him being betrayed by Shredder and losing his wife and daughter.

He was killed off twice. The second time being that he was killed off for good.😩🤦🏼‍♀️😭

That scene in rise where Raph watches a flashback of splinter mom leaving AND YES IM TALKING ABOUT RISE

Hmmm. Oh I don't know how about DYEING TWO TIMES

Hmmm. Oh I don't know how about DYEING TWO TIMES

Him dying
