¥/// Donatello ///¥

Appearance Donatello is a mutant turtle with a purple bandana and brown pads on his knees, elbows, and wrists. His skin color is olive green throughout the seven seasons of the second animated series from 2003. Personality Although in this incarnation Donatello is still the brains of the group, he is a pacifist. He is sometimes a bit witty, but it doesn't bother his siblings. Much like in the original Mirage Studios comics, Donatello has a complex personality in this second animated series from 2003. Several episodes focus on him, as well as his emotional and intellectual struggles. Much like in his other incarnations, he is highly intelligent, a skilled technician, and has a tendency to think things through. Even more of a pacifist than his other incarnations, he demonstrates a greater interest in technology than in his ninjutsu training. During his first Battle Nexus Tournament, despite being a very talented ninja, he lost in the first round of the competition. Still, he will defend his brothers at all costs, and frequently helps the team in many ways through the technology he develops, mainly vehicles and communication devices. Much like Leonardo, Donatello goes to great lengths to prepare for any situation. For example, during the Turtles' infiltration of Shredder's tower, where Donatello brought all the equipment and gadgets they would need. Overall, he is a gentle turtle who is well-liked by all of his siblings who never engage in major confrontations with them. He rarely fights them, but he does not argue with them.
