Leo2003

Personality

Has phlegmatic temperament which means he's honor bound, calm, and collected.
He is the leader of the group and the most "spiritual" of the four. He is kind of a grown-up, psychologically because of all of his seriousness.
He has a very close bond with Splinter, and has a strong sense of honor/Bushido and ethics, along with being a dedicated follower of the Bushido code. Episodes that deal with the Shredder and honor usually also focus on Leonardo, and he is often the Turtle who "saves the day" (in fact, Leonardo is the turtle who decapitates the Shredder early on in the series—of course, before they are aware that Shredder is in fact an evil Utrom by the name of Ch'rell who doesn't have a neck, let alone a distinct head).

Though however cool and level-headed he may seem, Leonardo can easily be as irrational as Raphael at times. In "Same As It Never Was" Leonardo and Raphael both left the team, too angry with each other to be in close proximity. The start of season 4 shows a distinctly less cheerful and look-on-the-bright-side Leonardo, due to his feelings of failure, as did a short period in season one after the Shredder returns, in which he became depressed and angry over the loss of his swords.
