Kuroi Yōroi, also known as the Shredder, is the main antagonist of Rise of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. He is a malevolent suit of armor and the leader of the Foot Clan, as well as the archenemy of Splinter and the Ninja Turtles, mainly Raphael.

He was voiced by Hoon Lee, who also voiced his host body Oroku Saki in the same series.

Biograph[]

Past[]

Five hundred years ago, Oroku Saki was the leader of the Foot Clan, which lived in peace at the time. But then they were attacked by an unknown enemy and were nearly wiped out. Desperate to save his clan, Saki made a deal with an evil alien being, who granted him the Kuroi Yuroi, an enchanted suit of armor that made its wearer invincible. Donning the armor, Saki defeated the attackers and saved his clan from destruction, but it came at a terrible cost: The armor swallowed him, both body and soul, transforming him into the terrible demon warrior known as the Shredder.

Using Oroku Saki's authority, the Shredder leads the Foot Clan down a path of villainy, destroying many innocent lives in the process. However, he was opposed by Saki's own daughter, Karai, who created her own clan to fight off the Foot; the Hamato Clan. Karai battled the Shredder, but no mortal weapon could defeat the demon, and so she opted to make the ultimate sacrifice by sealing herself and Oroku Saki's spirit in the Twilight Realm. This also resulted in the Kuroi Yuroi coming apart, with its pieces scattered all across the world.

Since then, the Hamato Clan worked diligently and traditionally to keep the dark armor pieces out of the hands of the Foot Clan, who wish to reassemble it and revive their master. But then this tradition ended when the latest member, Hamato Yoshi abandoned his family's duties to pursue his own dreams of fame and fortune, thus allowing the Foot Clan to assemble most of the pieces.

Season 1[]

In the present, 500 years since the Shredder's defeat, the Foot Lieutenant and Foot Brute now lead the Foot Clan, and have become dangerously close to collecting all the pieces of the dark armor. However, they met opposition from Hamato Yoshi's own sons, the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, though they had no idea about the Foot's true goal or their own family legacy. To make matters more difficult, in addition to gathering all the pieces, they also required someone of great mystic power to don the armor and energize it in order to bring the Shredder back to life. Fortunately for them, they found the solution to both problems in the form of Baron Draxum, a powerful yokai warrior/alchemist and current archenemy of the TMNT. They forged an alliance with him to gather the pieces and defeat the turtles by promising the power to protect his kind from humanity.

Their alliance eventually paid off when they captured the turtles and using them as hostages to force Master Splinter to give up the final piece of the dark armor, the Shredder's skull, which the Hamato Clan kept to themselves for the past five centuries disguised as a tea kettle. Upon finally assembling the armor, Baron Draxum dons it and begins his rampage against the human race. However, the TMNT were able to defeat him nonetheless by exploiting a flaw in the armor (which they themselves caused as adolescents), causing the armor to reject Draxum, leaving him severely weakened. Unfortunately, this victory was short lived, as the dark armor had successfully absorbed Draxum's energy, allowing it to reassemble itself, much to the joy of the Foot leaders. The shriveled-up Baron then watched in horror as the resurrected Shredder stared down upon him.

Season 2[]

In "Many Unhappy Returns", Splinter, his sons and their friend, April O' Neil stand their ground against the Shredder as the demon began crawling and snarling towards them. But upon hearing the Foot Lieutenant, Brute and Recruit (the latter had just arrived via portal, which Draxum escaped through) cheer him on, the Shredder turns his attention towards them and begins attacking them. Seeing the Shredder act like a mindless monster attacking his own minions leaves Splinter confused, as he was told that the demon was an intelligent leader. Raph, Mikey and Donnie attempt to attack him, but Shredder easily knocks them all away. He then lunges at Leo, but then suddenly vanishes.

He then eventually reappears in Albearto's after 15 minutes, threatening the lives of all the children there as it mindlessly destroys the animatronics, and as the Turtles confront him he quickly overpowers them again before phasing out of reality once more, with the same incident repeating multiple times to which Leo and Splinter decide to make a deal with Big Mama as a result, who agrees to help them tether Shredder to their dimension and confine him. Meanwhile, the rest prepare for Shredder's remanifestation in a shipyard, to which the Turtles try everything to find his weakness, subduing him by using his tickle spot. But he gets distracted by the fireworks from a highly-occupied yacht, which he furiously fights his way through to slaughter them, cutting through containers and a cargo ship thrown at him by Mikey who is then joined up by Raph and Donnie. But the Shredder manages to best them before being suddenly hit by a container thanks to April using a crane before continuing towards the fireworks, disappearing before he could reach. He would then eventually rematerialize in a New York City street, but the Turtles and Big Mama's forces were present who then promptly fit a mystic collar onto him to render him powerless and have him under Big Mama's control.

Using a cloak, Big Mama disguises him as Shadow Fiend and has him become her new champion while having him kidnap various villains in the series such as Meat Sweats Hypno-Potamus for Big Mama's gambit in "Battle Nexus: New York", using her ring to tip the situation to her favor when the Turtles suddenly confront her in front of ehr hotel to free the citizens of New York, in which the Shadow Fiend is revealed as the Shredder. Big Mama uses her ring to bring her the Shadow Fiend, until the Hamato family defeats him, however, the Foot Recruit reveals the ring in her grasp and explains that the shadow fiend is actually Shredder, whom she takes control of and takes away to return to the Foot Clan's lair.

However, due to being still being a mindless beast under the control of the mystic collar, for most of "E-Turtle Sunshine of the Spotless Mind", the Shredder remains immobile. However, in an attempt to gain the weapon that could defeat Shredder once and for all, which alter turned out to be Karai, the Turtles unintentionally freed Shreddr's soul from the Twilight Realm and return it and his will back to his body as he laughs in triumph over his freedom, leading to "Shreddy or Not" in which he enquires on what the Foot Clan is by the present. He then detects Karai's location due to sensing her energy and announces his plans to kill her and extract her essence, ordering his minions to eliminate all opposition. As the Turtles fight to shield Karai, the Shredder promptly destroys their mystic weapons. Karai then confronts her using her Hamato Ninpo, but Shredder shrugs off all her moves against her ad nearly incapacitates her, to which Karai uses her powers to break through the Shredder's armor, exposing Saki's trapped soul who tries to reach out for his daughter. In retaliation, the Shredder inflicts a fatal blow onto Karai and leaves to kill the Turtles, capturing Baron Draxum and Splinter in the process while the Turtles escape with Todd Capybara in the Turtle Tank.

In "Anatawa Hitorijanai", the Shredder is displeased by his power not being amplified by Karai's death to which he attempts to kill Splinter to extract his essence before being convinced out of the act by the Foot Lieutenant and Brute who reveal to him a substance that serves as the life source of Yokais, Empyrean, deciding to use it to extract Splinter's essence. With Draxum's seeming betrayal, he travels to his laboratory to get the Empyrean. However, Draxum reveals to Shredder he is the prophesized threat that will cause Ykai-kind's extinction as he attempts to attack the Shredder with his golem, leading to the Foot Brute and Lieutenant being crushed by rubble but the Shredder invalidates his efforts. As revealed in the final episode "Rise", he pins Draxum down telling him that nobody betrays him and questions about the Empyrean. When he agrees, Shredder menacingly tells Splinter that he will absorb his essence and become unstoppable. He tells Cassandra to leave the Foot Lieutenant and the Foot Brute crushed by the laboratory's rubble.

After he arrives at the Crying Titan with Splinter and Draxum chained, he gets Cassandra to start the ritual before opening the head of the crying Titan to reveal the corpse of the Krang as well as the liquid he needed from his ship for the ritual. He chains Yoshi's essence to torture the rat; He then tells Draxum that he's useless and prepares to kill him. However, Raphael and the turtle stop him just in time for the finale.

Before the battle, he tells Cassandra to guard the ritual. The Turtles and April engage Oroku Saki in a fierce but epic battle. During this, Donatello crushes him with a giant drill and weakens him. However, he escapes and blasts the Turtles, April and Karai away before turning back to Yoshi. Luckily, Cassandra turns on Saki and frees Splinter so he can give him a fatal blow.

Making one final attempt to destroy the Hamatos, The Turtles, April, Cassandra, Karai, Splinter and Draxum take a spiritual spear and try to finish the Shredder; However, he is too powerful until Hamato Yoshi's Mother and the other Hamatos appear to help finish off the Shredder's reign of terror and cause his powerful armor to explode. After that, his tormented spirit was released, and was able to rest peacefully with Karai and the others.

Powers and Abilities[]

The Shredder wields the ability which is called the Armored Annihilator according to the Playmates toy. The Shredder has immense speed and strength at his disposal, is able to wipe out cities, and is stated to be a threat to all of Humanity. At full power, he is able to manipulate his body shape into different types of weaponry, and apparently, if he absorbs the Hamato Essence, he will become unstoppable.
