What I'm most looking forward to is just more screentime for Nino. He's been about as essential to the story as Rose or Ivan, even though he's supposed to be Adrien's best friend and Alya's boyfriend. I'm not sure if Nino will have a different personality as Carapace, because Nino has no masks to hide behind or insecurities to forgo. Ladybug and Cat Noir are the true personalities of Marinette and Adrien, since Marinette can allow her full personality to shine without worry of judgement as Ladybug (her Ladybug traits come out around Alya and Cat Noir), and Adrien is a largely fake persona while Cat Noir is the real deal. So I'm not sure if Nino is going to be the reverse of that, or if he'll be like you said, a TMNT for all intents and purposes.

As it stands my theory is that he realises his time has come, and he needs to pass on the Turtle Miraculous to someone who can actually use it.
