Continuity mistake: When the Turtles are climbing the wall to get into the garbage-chute that leads to the prison, you can see Donatello's bandana tail hanging down towards the wall just as if they were crawling on the floor. (01:09:05)

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles III (1993)
Ending / spoiler
Directed by: Stuart Gillard
Starring: Elias Koteas, Stuart Wilson, Paige Turco, Sab Shimono
Walker is caught on the roof with the turtles cornering him. He throws the scepter in an attempt to break it but Mike catches it. Wick shoots the rope holding Walker up with a cannonball, and he falls into the sea (presumably to his death).Once the turtles and April get ready to head back to the present, Mike says he doesn't want to go because people treat them better in feudal times. Raph agrees, but Mitsu changes their minds, saying that the turtles shouldn't stay because a war may start again. Meanwhile, Kenshin activates the scepter in the modern day without his honor guards, but Casey manages to get them back in time. However, Mike just misses going back after he talks to Mitsu, but the scepter activates again, sending Mike back to New York with the scepter destroyed so it can't ever be used again.

Answer: Michelangelo wants to stay behind for the same reasons as Raphael: because in that time and place, they are well respected, even revered as heroes. They can live openly and not be banished to sewers or subway stations.

Mikey didn't want to stay behind because of Yoshi but because of Mitsu. Raphael even points out that she's the reason he doesn't want to return. When Mikey says they should stay, Raph responds, "Now, forget about Mitsu and give me the scepter."
