Teen Titans (series)

9/10 We’ve finally reached my last Teen Titans review, and it's the series as a whole because today is the 22nd anniversary of the show.

Plot: Five teen superheroes save the town from threats while dealing with personal issues such as family life, self-worth, and friendships. 

Positives:

1. The animation is amazing, the anime-esque expressions are funny, and the fight scenes are well choreographed.

2. The character development is phenomenal; every Titan (except for Starfire) got a season focusing on them throughout the series run with arcs that reveal more about their backstory.

3. The voice performances are magnificent; each of them does an amazing job when it comes to their characters and how they interact.

4. The storylines are great; the mix of comedic and serious stories balances out the tone of the series by having some lighthearted moments between arcs.

5. The Titans are incredible; all of them get developed excellently, and their interactions with each other are entertaining. My favorite arcs were Terra and Raven because of the impact they had on the series. Terra's sacrifice in Aftershocks will always be one of the most iconic moments from the show, along with Raven defeating Trigon in The End.

6. Every villain in this series has been phenomenal; their motives were clear, they had enough screentime to leave an impact, and their encounters with the Titans were outstanding. My favorite was Trigon because, unlike Slade, he was almost unstoppable to the Titans, so seeing them trying to defeat him was entertaining, plus his design was fire.

7. The theme song is a banger.

Negatives:

1. Season 5 was underwhelming in some aspects, like I stated in my Season 5 review. The Doom Patrol weren’t good characters, and the finale left so many questions unanswered.

2. Season 1 had a bit of a slow start for me. The first few episodes were good, but some episodes in the middle were pretty meh.

Overall, Teen Titans is an outstanding series. This binge made me appreciate the show so much more. I see why this is considered one of the best Cartoon Network shows of all time because the storytelling, villains, and character development are amazing, and the tension is so entertaining to see. If you haven’t watched the series, you should start now.

Instead of being a Season 2 being the focus of Terra involving hero to villain to redemption, she could be a full flesh Titan like the other allies. I rather see her become recurring ally in the series. The following episodes after Season 2 I think might suit her:

X

Crash

Haunted

Revolution

The Beast Within

Can I Keep Him

Birthmark

Employee of the Month

Troq

The Prophecy

The End Pt. 1-3

Homecoming Pt. 1 and 2

Calling All Titans

Titans Together

Starfire: Friends! I am so elated to say that the day has finally arrived! We must frolic and leap in glorious celebration for today is 19th of July, 2023! Today, the Earth has utterly completed its 20th orbit around the Sun ever since "Teen Titans" was first aired on the Television 6,705 days prior to now!

Robin: A-ma-ZING!

Raven: Way to go!

Cyborg: Boo-YEA!

Beast Boy: Great! (But he is confused and asked Raven, whispering) Er...Raven? What does she mean?

Raven: She means today's the 20th Anniversary of Teen Titans.

Beast Boy: The 20th anniversary of Teen Titans! Dude! How could I forget 'bout that?

Starfire: It is okay Beast Boy. You have remembered it now.

Beast Boy: Suh-weet! Now we should eat something sweet and tweet something on Tweeter…or…maybe post something on Facebook? Whatever you like.

Cyborg: Yo! It's the 20th Anniversary Baby! I can't believe Teen Titans reached 20!

Robin: You're right Cyborg. (To Starfire) Star, it's really hard to take your word for it. It's been 20 years since Teen Titans first debuted on TV? What a milestone!

Starfire: Yes, Robin! It is indeed a huge milestone!

Cyborg: Uh...I don’t get this. It’s been 20 years but we ain’t aged a day?

Beast Boy: Um...maybe…we're just…uh…Ageless?

Raven: No, it's because, 20 years passed beyond the fourth wall only.

Robin: Yeah, in our world, we passed only around 3-4 years.

Cyborg: Okay. I got it now. So, it's 20 years outside the fourth wall only and not in our world.

Beast Boy: But dude! Why we oughta celebrate something that's not in our world?

Starfire: It is because the people beyond the fourth wall presented us with a myriad of love and care!

Robin: And now it's our time to present our love and care to them.

Raven: By showing our gratitude towards them.

Beast Boy, Robin, Cyborg, Raven and Starfire (smiled at one another, then looked at the fourth wall, to their fans, said in unison): Thank you so much for your love and support!

Robin: Speaking of gratitude, there's a group of people who deserves our thanks even more.

Cyborg: The people who has created us. For them, we're into existence.

Raven: The people who made this series in a very serious tone with thrilling actions.

Beast Boy: The people who also gave this series a goofy tone with witty sight gags and comedy as well as satisfying admix of cartoon and anime, what I like to call Americanime.

Starfire: The people who filled this series with boundless of joy, handful of sadness and richness of romance and made it as a symbol of unity and friendship by developing an ecstatic bond among us!

Robin: The people who invested their hard work, intelligence and huge amount of money to make the childhood remarkable for many other people. I appreciate the contributions of the creator of the series, Glen Murakami, who developed this series alongside David Slack and Sam Register. Also, Sander Schwartz, Bruce Timm, Linda M. Sinister, Ciro Neili, Alex Soto, Michael Chang, Ben Jones, Amy Wolfram, Rob Hoegee, Adam Beechen, Andrea Romano, AJ Vargas and many other talented individuals, who played their roles as producers, directors, story writers, storyboard artists, character designers, background artists, production managers, casting and voice director, timing directors, post production supervisors, film editors, animators and so on. Their dedication brought this show into light to the world’s delight. Thanks a lot, to you all.

Starfire: I wish to express my gratitude towards the amazing voice artists Greg Cipes, Scott Menville, Khary Paython, Tara Strong and Hynden Walch as well as Ashley Johnson, Ron Perlman, John DiMaggio, Kevin Michael Richardson, Glenn Shadix, Lauren Tom, Mike Erwin, Wil Wheaton, Crystal Keymáh, Freddy Rodriguez, Dee Bradley Bakerand and all the other voice artists. Their mellifluous voice lifted up the series by filling our ears with sugar candies. So, I, Starfire, thank you all from the deepest of my heart.

Cyborg: Man, I gotta admit how catchy the theme song is! Composed by Andy Strummer and performed by 2 beautiful Japanese artists Puffy AmiYumi! And what ‘bout the BGMs, composed by Lolita Ritmanis, Kristopher Carter and Michael McCuistion. With the music, you guys nailed it. Thank you so much y'all.

Raven: We shouldn't forget the contributions of Sir Robert Haney and Bruno Premiani. Through DC comics, they introduced the world with Teen Titans in the first place. Apart from them, Arnold Drake, Marv Wolfman and George Perez created many other characters for DC comics that are featured in the series. So, thanks to them too.

Beast Boy: Speaking of comics, we should also admire J. Torres, the story writer for the tie-in comic books plus regular illustrators Todd Nauck and Larry Stucker and everybody, involved with the comics, thanks to all of them. Also, Thanks to DC Comics for characters and elements, Warner Bros. Animation Inc. for the motion pictures and Cartoon Network for distributing the series.

Cyborg: But man, I don’t like this. This hit show has been cut from TV after the 5th Season!

Beast Boy: Yeah dude, we seek more. I wanna see Terra's return as a titan.

Raven: Besides, unlike us, Starfire doesn't get her own season. This is totally unfair to her.

Starfire: Do not worry my friends. I believe the 6th season is coming soon.

Robin: Right. We were featured in a crossover movie with our TTG Counterparts in 2019. I think it's about time Teen Titans will back on TV with a brand-new season.

Starfire: Oh, it will be glorious! But for now, I merely wish to celebrate this wondrous occasion. We can start our celebrations by adorning our home with colorful flowers or perhaps we can visit the mall of shopping or the hall of cinema or the park of amusement. And what about the singing of the Tamaranian folk songs? I shall go and bring the Gorka Pipes since Tamaranian folk songs are much more cheerful when accompanied by Gorka Pipes.

Raven: Um...Starfire? Maybe…we can just start our celebrations with pizza?

Robin: Hm, pizza sounds good to me!

Cyborg: And it tastes good to all! I'll have meat pizza with double pepperoni plus extra cheese!

Beast Boy: And I'll have tofu pizza with double mushroom and eggplants plus extra soy cheese! (To Raven) What's 'bout you, Raven?

Raven: I.....just want a Pizza.

Starfire: Absolutely delightful! Friends, we must initiate our journey to the shop of pizza for the scarfing down of pizza.

Cyborg: Well alright y'all. I'll drive. My baby's ready to hit the road!

Robin: Guess only one thing left to say now, TITANS! GO!

Hi everyone! For those of you who previously read my profile and that it was mentioned that I was going to leave this wiki/occasionally be active here, well that was because of some insecurities I had because of a user over here that posted a website that freaked me out so much, however, that problem is solved now. Anyways, I'm back now! And just like all of/most of you, I was a big fan of Teen Titans starting from my childhood and I'm still a big fan of it today :)
