* Related to that, April gets to meet Usagi in the show's ChristmasEpisode. Creator/VeronicaTaylor would later be cast as an ally to that other [[Anime/SailorMoon Usagi as a fellow Sailor Guardian]].
* Michelangelo is voiced here by Creator/WayneGrayson. Later on, the Turtles meet the Dynamic Duo in ''ComicBook/BatmanTeenageMutantNinjaTurtles''. (granted, the Robin in that series is Damian Wayne, rather than Dick Grayson. Grayson does appear, as Nightwing, in Vol. 2 and as both Robin and later Nightwing in ''Batman/Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Adventures'')
* In the ''Fast Forward'' season, one of the Turtles' major enemies is Viral, who, in particular, is often at odds with Donatello due to his role as TheSmartGuy in the group. One year later, [[Creator/SamRiegel Donnie's voice actor]] plays a completely different character named [[Anime/TengenToppaGurrenLagann "Viral" though pronounced "Vee-ral" in that case]]).

Then we have the "Waking the Dragons" arc of ''Yu-Gi-Oh!'' and we have Alister...who is an evil redhead voiced by Ted Lewis with major antagonism towards Kaiba (associated with blue).

* Creator/RobPaulsen, who previously voiced Raphael, went on to voice Donatello in the [[WesternAnimation/TeenageMutantNinjaTurtles2012 next iteration]].

* "The Return of Nano" has a bit of back and forth on NotADate between Casey and April. During the climax, Donatello needs April's help for his plan and runs off with her, leading Casey to bemoan "that sneaky, little green nerd" running off with his date. This exchange got funnier in light of the three characters being in a love triangle on the 2012 series.

* The series ended up having a lot of similarities with the ''[[WesternAnimation/TeenTitans2003 Teen Titans]]'' series that came out the same year (of course, ''ComicBook/TeenTitans'' is considered to be one of the inspirations for the [[ComicBook/TeenageMutantNinjaTurtlesMirage original comics]]):
** The [[Recap/TeenageMutantNinjaTurtles2003S1E1ThingsChange very first episode]] of ''TMNT'' and [[Recap/TeenTitansS5E13ThingsChange the final episode]] of ''Titans'' share the same title: ''Things Change''.
** Both shows have an episode where one of the protagonists [[PurpleIsPowerful who wears purple]] accidentally goes to a BadFuture only to find that [[BondBreaker due to their absence]], the rest of the team has disbanded and they work together to bring the band back together (Donatello in ''[[Recap/TeenageMutantNinjaTurtles2003S3E21SameAsItNeverWas Same As It Never Was]]'' and Starfire in ''[[Recap/TeenTitansS2E1HowLongIsForever How Long Is Forever]]'').
** Both shows have an episode where TheLeader has to go and train with a TricksterMentor in one episode (Leo in ''[[Recap/TeenageMutantNinjaTurtles2003S4E14TheAncientOne The Ancient One]]'' and Robin in ''[[Recap/TeenTitansS4E4TheQuest The Quest]]''). Funnily enough, ''The Quest'' ends with the Titans eating pizza, the Turtles' TrademarkFavoriteFood in many adaptations.

* In "Shredder Strikes Back, Part 2," Raph flashes back to the Shredder's (first) defeat, and states that "Nothing human could have survived that!" Much later, it would be revealed that the Shredder ''isn't'' human.
* In "Exodus," it was promised "[[WhamEpisode One of these characters will never be seen again]]", and after the episode, Ch'rell is banished to an ice planet, likely never to be seen again... That is, until ''WesternAnimation/TurtlesForever'', but even before that, Peter Laird confirmed that the Triceraton Shredder shown in concept art of a possible second ''Fast Forward'' season would have been Ch'rell hijacking the body of a Triceraton soldier, and ''Back to the Sewers'' not-so-subtly implied in its first episode that Ch'rell would fight the other two Shredders in the show (there would have been an arc called "The Shredder Wars"), making the claim that Ch'rell would never be seen again ''hysterical''.
* On a similar note, there's this exchange, from Season 5, before the Cyber Shredder was introduced (and, consequentially, before ''WesternAnimation/TurtlesForever'' and the whole 'Multiverse' thing).
--->'''Mikey:''' "Real Shredder," "True Shredder," "Utrom Shredder..."
--->'''Donnie:''' How many Shredders ''are there''?
* Early on in Season 1-- the episode "The Garbageman"-- Mikey tries out several catchphrases, much to his brothers' distaste. One of those catchphrases is "It's trench-coat wearing time!". Nobody (except the fans) seems to have a problem with "It's ''ninja'' time" five seasons later.
* The Dark Turtles from the ''Fast Forward'' season have far more distinct designs than the Turtles, with Dark Leonardo having the most balanced physique, Dark Raphael having a bulkier form, Dark Donatello being taller and slimmer, and Dark Michelangelo being somewhat smaller than the rest. Barring Michelangelo, almost all of the design traits are exactly like [[WesternAnimation/TeenageMutantNinjaTurtles2012 the 2012 incarnation of the Turtles]], who [[DivergentCharacterEvolution were all made distinct aesthetic]]-wise. Dark Raphael also has spikes protruding from his body and shell, which also makes him resemble [[spoiler:Raphael's mutated pet Turtle Spike, who would become the 2012 incarnation of Slash]].

* [[WesternAnimation/TeenageMutantNinjaTurtles1987 The 1987 series]] was a LighterAndSofter show that received a retool late in its run that made the last couple of seasons DarkerAndEdgier. The same thing happened to this show, but in reverse: This was a DarkerAndEdgier show that received a retool late in its run that made the last couple of seasons LighterAndSofter.

* An animated adaptation where a long-running reptilian team is [[spoiler:transformed into dragons]] to tackle a worldwide threat. Are we talking about the "Ninja Tribunal" season or the fourth ''Manga/SgtFrog'' film?
* Mikey is a superhero fanboy who becomes a superhero himself (specifically a BadassNormal in a show full of powered hero, meets numerous superheroes (including Nobody, who bears a superficial resemblance to ComicBook/Batman), and becomes a reserve member of the Justice Force. Fast forward to the Nickelodeon era and the TMNT have crossed over with Batman multiple times.
