🗽 New York at TMNT 2012

The city is vibrant, with a constant contrast between the everyday lives of humans and the hidden world of mutants, ninjas, and aliens. By day, it's a city filled with traffic, noise, and people in a hurry; by night, the empty streets and dark alleys serve as a battleground for heroes and villains.

Characteristic details: roofs littered with water tanks, graffiti on walls, smoke rising from the sewers, neon lights in the busiest neighborhoods. The series gives it a classic urban feel, a blend of modernity and decadence.
