One Piece gets hilarious reference in new TMNT show ParamountTeenage Mutant Ninja Turtles gave a nod to another long-running franchise, One Piece, with an obvious but effective joke in the latest episode. One Piece has been consistently putting out episodes and chapters for 25 years now, making one of the best anime also one of the hardest to catch up with as a new fan. It\u2019s the kind of consistency even a property such as Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles can only imagine, since we\u2019ve had numerous TV shows from the heroes in a half-shell. The newest, Tales of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, capped off the first season by poking at the absurdity of there being over 1,000 One Piece episodes, in a funny gag involving Leatherhead and Wingnut. The slightly hapless allies of the Turtles are lumbered with a ticking timebomb. Their methods of defusing the device aren\u2019t working, leading them to panic. \u201cThis is it. This is how it ends. There\u2019s so much I didn\u2019t do,\u201d exclaims Wingnut. \u201cI\u2019ll never finish One Piece!\u201d Then Leatherhead literally slaps some sense into her, because freaking out isn\u2019t going to help. We don\u2019t know where Wingnut is in her misadventures with the Straw Hats, but it sounds like she\u2019s probably quite far from the Egghead Arc and current happenings. Such is the problem with getting into One Piece now \u2013 you live with the cross on your shoulders of how many episodes there are to go. Catching up on Tales of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles is much easier, since all 12 episodes are currently on Paramount Plus. Perfect for something to watch while we wait for information on The One Piece, Netflix\u2019s complete anime reboot of the iconic manga. Wit Studio is handling production on that, though we still don\u2019t have a release window. Live-action One Piece Season 2 is coming as well, and if any of this has you thinking about what\u2019s going on in the mainline version, our guide to Chapter 1123 will get you up to speed.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
