The 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Teen Titans animated series from 2003 to 2006 is one of the most popular and charming animated superhero series ever produced. Created by Glen Murakami and co-developed by Sam Register and David Slack, Teen Titans was based on Marv Wolfman and George Pérez's titular comic run during the 1980s.

With slick anime-styled animation, superb voice acting, sharp storytelling, and clever comedy, there's a reason DC fans are wishing for this version of the Titans to return all these years later. In the meantime, let's look back on some of the finest episodes from one of 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Cartoon Network's best series.

10 ﷽ Lightspeed ꦦ

Season 5 - Episode 8

If you were to ask a DC fan which superhero gets the least love in adaptations, one name you'll frequently hear is the Wally West iteration of the Flash. Unlike the much more well-known Barry Allen, West's never quite gotten the treatment he deserves.

Since Teen Titans was released amid the animated Justice League shows, including Wally West in Teen Titans made sense. As expected, the character is adapted exꦏcellently in his episode, Lightspeed. With Michael Rosenbaum reprising his role, Lightspeed is a fantastic one-off episode.

9 Th𓆏ings Change

Season 5 - Episode 13

There are many different theories about why Teen Titans didn't continue after season five. Some believe Cartoon Network wanted a more kid-friendly show, while others believe it came down to creative differences. Ultimately, the showrunners were satisfied with the final episode, Things Change.

Unlike the previous episodes in season five, Things Change focused less on spectacle and instead highlighted character drama between Beast Boy and the returning Terra. Things Change might lack the superhero star power, but it's poignant and features outstanding performances and writing.

8 𓆏 How Long Is Forever?

Season 2 - Episode 1

One thing that made Teen Titans stand out from the other DC shows of the time was the creative freedom the writers had. Cartoon Network's Vice President Sam Register wanted the showrunners to take risks and be imaginative.

How Long is Forever? is easily one of the series' most memorable one-off episodes. The plot sees Starfire traveling to the future, where she sees how the Titans have fallen apart without her. This episode emphasizes the team's close friendship through smart storytelling and strong character work.

7 Nevermore

Season 1 - Episode 6

Overall, Teen Titans was a show geared toward younger audiences, but it wasn't without its darker segments. Most of the show's more mature elements revolve around Raven. While we get most of Raven's character growth in season four, there's a glimpse in season one.

The episode Nevermore sees Beast Boy and Cyclops journey into Raven's mind, where the writers give fantastic insight into her past, trauma, and her relationship with her demonic father, Trigon. The episode also boasts some truly dark and twisted animation.

6 😼 Aftershock

Season 2 - Episode 12 & 13

One of the best story arcs from Teen Titans was Terra's fall from a Teen Titan comrade to a powerful adversary. With exceptional voice acting from Ashley Johnson, Terra became one of the series' most endearing and captivating characters.

The two-part season two finale, Aftershock, was the culmination of her arc and a fantastic conclusion to the second season. Between Terra's conflicting emotions, Beast Boy's complete despair, and Slade's manipulative stranglehold over Terra, plenty of quality beats are woven into one of the show's best narratives.

5 Masks

Season 1 - Episode 9

One riveting narrative from Teen Titans that might've been slightly underutilized was Robin's obsession with the series' main antagonist, Slade. Some of the show's greatest episodes focused on this dynamic, which showcased the series' strengths.

Masks was the first time we got a story examining how deeply Robin's determination to beat Slade consumed him. With the obsession reaching its zenith, Robin decides to take up the villainous persona of Red X to gain Slade's trust, which creates a rift between him and his friends.

4 Go!

Season 5 - Episode 10

While T🦂een Titans was a new series separate from the larger DC animated universe, we never knew how the team came together before season five. The series pilot already shows the Teen Titans together, so having an episode del🍸ve into that story would be interesting.

In season five, we finally got an episode all about how Robin, Starfire, Cyborg, Raven, and Beast Boy became the titular her🃏oic squad. Despite not being connected to the seasonal plot, Go! was a standout episode with several iconic moments.

3 Birthmark

Season 4 - Episode 3

Many people may not know that Slade, aka Deathstroke, was created as the archenemy of Teen Titans. Despite his battles with Batman, Superman, and the greater Jus🏅tice League, Slade will always be synonymous with the adolescent superhero team.

The episodes with Slade are often among the best in the series; Birthmark is ranked high by the show's passionate fanbase. With Slade reemerging with an eye for Raven, Birthmark brought back the dangerous mask-wearing miscreant and tied his return in with Raven's impending confrontation with Trigon.

2 The End

Season 4 - Episodes 11, 12, & 13

Each of Teen Titan's five seasons is well worth watching. But in discussing which season stands above the rest, many regard season four as the apex. Primarily centered around Raven battling her destiny, season four represents Teen Titans' best and darkest story.

Season four concludes with The End, which sees Trigon enacting his sovereignty over the earth. This three-part conclusion has several awesome sequences, from Raven's overcoming her past trauma to Slade and Robin's allying and combating through hell; The End is a phenomenal climax.

1 Haunted

Season 3 - Episode 5

It's difficult to single out a single Teen Titans episode as the series champion; there are many strong candidates for that crown. But when talking about everything that makes Teen Titans a marvelous series, Haunted might be the show's paragon.

By season three, Slade is considered dead, but Robin doesn't believe he's gone. So when Slade seemingly returns, but only Robin can see him, it creates tension between him and the other Titans. Haunted isn't just a terrific episode — it also symbolizes why Teen Titans is so awesome.
