Not Blackface, but Splinter’s design infamously incorporates Asian stereotypes.

The worst is splinter "hitting" his sons with his tail, but it's never implied to hurt?

S2E11: Battle Nexus: New York. Very blink and you miss it. A bird is sitting on a power line in one scene, it cuts away, then back. A cat is chewing on feathers where the bird sat previously

In “The Mutant Menace”, there’s a bit where Raph can’t fit in a hatch and tells Donnie to make it bigger, to which Donnie replies “I made it to your specs, but that was when you were in your ‘doing sit-ups every day’ phase.”

Splinter can be seen as very stereotypically Japanese, and since those aren't flattering stereotypes it might make some viewers uncomfortable. Later on he gets more emotional depth, but if you're bothered by US ninja genre standards, play it safe.
