Tora appears as one of the eight chosen acolytes in the Turtles 2003 animated series' "Lost Episodes". He and his fellow Acolytes, as well as the Ninja Turtles, were deemed worthy enough by the Ninja Tribunal to join the battle against the Tengu Shredder. During a trip to find artifacts that would prevent Shredder's resurrection, Tora appeared to be killed in battle with the Foot Mystics, but reappears later in the season, having been mysteriously not killed.
