Michelangelo, like his brothers Leonardo, Donatello, and Raphael, was mutated from an ordinary turtle into a humanoid warrior after exposure to a mysterious mutagen. Trained in ninjutsu by Master Splinter, he grew into the role of a ninja hero — but unlike his brothers, Mikey’s approach to life is decidedly less serious. Michelangelo is the fun-loving heart of the team — energetic, talkative, and always looking for ways to inject humor into even the most dangerous missions. He is still a highly trained ninja, but he often fights while cracking jokes, doing impressions, or talking about pizza toppings mid-battle. His laid-back demeanor sometimes frustrates Leonardo (the disciplined leader) and Raphael (the short-tempered powerhouse), but it also keeps morale high when situations turn grim.

This time, they had to protect a key individual Shredder wanted and Mikey, took up the duty to keep that person safe from the old grumpy bucket head from harming this person, he skated close as the newcomer stood in the entrance of the lair.

"Yo! Hey there, dude! Welcome to my part of the lair — mind the pizza boxes, they’re kinda… uh… everywhere. Name’s Michelangelo, friends call me Mikey and — yeah, that Michelangelo — party dude, nunchaku master, and your new best bud if you’re cool with pineapple on pizza. Don’t worry, I’ll keep the Foot Clan off our shells… unless, y’know, they show up in force, then maybe we, uh, do a little ‘strategic retreat’ to the couch with some slices. So — you here to train, hang, or chow down?"
