Also, if you played the sonic adventure 2 battle game of the GameCube, they will make the game make more sense because the movies kind if show you the context before the game and supposedly the third movie is the plot of the game.

>>451268My opinions are personally mixed when it comes to the Sonic movie trilogy. I thought the first movie was boring and I didn't really care for it at all. I remember getting backlash from my friends and some Sonic fan groups I was in where I said that I thought the movie wasn't that great but that's just how I honestly felt about it. The sequel, I actually really liked it and I think it's because Tails and Knuckles were in it and it gave us some more familiar faces and their personalities felt true to their characters. I especially appreciated how they didn't make Knuckles a bumbling dumbass and kept him more inline to his original game personality where he was more gullible and old-world but still had some common sense.
But the third movie… I'm sorry but I didn't like it. I hate to fall into the stereotype
>>451430 mentioned with my autistic love for SA2 but… KEK. I personally didn't like the changes they made to the story and essentially dumbed the plot down. I'm bias because SA2 is my favorite of the Sonic games and I especially love the plot in it and there was just no way I could ever be okay with seeing it dumb down so much for the kid audience.
Also and I'm probably in the minority but I can't stand the Agent Stone character. His "relationship" with Dr Eggman feels forced and honestly, just cringe. I know that they wanted to give Dr Eggman a companion so he has someone to converse with but I would've preferred if they gave him a robot companion like in the games because whatever the hell they're doing with this Agent Stone character, I'm not a fan of it at all.
ANYWAY bitching aside, I agree with other commenters that if you're not too passionate of a sSonic fan, you might enjoy them.

I actually agree I like Penders more than Ian Flynn. At least when Penders did something retarded it was kind of funny, like when he had the Echidnas be nazis right down to the death camps.
But as shit and unreadable as IDW is, I still stand by Min Ho Kims art. It's not enough for me to read the horrible writing or to get me to buy the comics. But he does a great job visually capturing the essence of Sonic.

>>451874I've been putting off seeing S3 movie though I will watch it soon. Despite being a long time autist fan (I'm older than sonic himself lol) SA1 and 2 are my favorites and I dont like how they've taken the popular movie / remake route of picking out enough plot details to make it clear what game they're working from but not have it follow the plot entirely. Why is Amy not here till movie 4 when she was very integral in SA2? WHERE IS ROUGE?? Etc etc. I don't hate the way the movies have gone but I wish they'd done something with the Chaos saga in SA1 or followed the plot of SA2 with the seriousness and intense exposition.
I really dislike Jim Carrey as a person, and while I thought his portrayal of Robitnik in the 1st and 2nd movies were OK, I think he's just far far far too silly. The hogs make a joke of Eggman but he's pretty serious about himself, and he, even at his silliest, is an intensely intelligent character. It's Ok if they went a humorous route or so grandiose and robust it's funny (which I think would suit Robotnik a lot) but I just hate that it's the Jim Carrey as The Mask as Dr. Robotnik.
I'm waiting to see how this whole thing with Gerald Robotnik is handled but I really don't like the look of how silly it is. Maybe it's better in context. I want to see Shadow and I'm looking forward to seeing the movie, I just wish they'd stuck closer to the material, especially this movie being based on SA2 since that game was so story heavy.

>>452281This might be a hot take but I always liked this idea that Shadow and Maria would have been a couple if Maria hadn't died. It's kind of a self insert thing, and I know Maria would have been too young to see Shadow as anything but a friend while she was alive. But I always head cannoned her getting older and trying to date other humans but never quite bonding with them like she does with Shadow. too bad scrotes ruin Shadria by being coomer pedos about it. I always saw it as a pure thing. But western Sonic fans see Shadria as gross/evil. I just see it as like "Shadow is what Sonic would be if Amy died", since I see Sonic and Amy as also having a pure but unestablished romantic relationship due to both being too young.

>>451874>dumbed down for a kid audienceThat always bugged the shit out of me because
Sonic Adventure 2 was always for a kid audience!!! It's embarrassing that somehow in this day in age when kids are exposed to the most heinous shit on the internet the mainstream media absolutely over infantilizes them for no reason whatsoever. This was kind of a problem in the early 2000s too. Like in shows like Sonic X where they'd censor the dumbest shit ever (like with Molly where they made her into a coward instead of a deeply symbolic character for Shadow).
Children's mainstream media standards in America is so absolutely ridiculous and all over the place.
And yeah I didn't like
Gerald being goofy and somehow 100000 years old for no reason. In the games he is a very serious and dark character. I hated that Shadow isn't his creation and Maria isn't sick. It sucked extra that they weren't in space. Maria and Shadow bonded over both wanting to see Earth for the first time. They did that shit in SonicxShadow generations too.I swear I'm not autistic.

That aside, I agree with most of what you said and since you said you're older than Sonic himself, I think we might be in the same age bracket and if that's the case, I have come to notice that the "Sonic cycle" is definitely afoot with these movies and plays into how each generation will feel about them because I've seen gen z eating up the third movie vs millennials who seem to be more mixed to disappointed with it.

>>454732>I've seen gen z eating up the third movie vs millennials who seem to be more mixed to disappointed with it.nyart I can't help but wonder if gen zers just have shitty standards or what? I know there has been a slow and steady decline in children's media quality for a very long time, and acknowledge my own nostalgia blindness but I feel like it's getting to a point where I wonder how the hell even children stand for it? Even though Gen zers aren't even really kids anymore.
I wanted to like the third Sonic movie but I feel like big movie studios are scared to take even the most minute risks in children's movies. I don't know why they couldn't have Jim Carrey play Gerald as more serious like he's portrayed in the game. I always thought Carrey enjoyed playing serious roles, and if anything the end result would have been far more interesting to have this serious/goofy carrey dynamic in one movie, mirroring Sonic and Shadow. But instead its just 2 of the same character.
If the 4th movie is anything less shitty than the third, I would be absolutely floored.
Also I hate ben shwartz sonic. There was no reason not to just hire the game actor like they did with tails.

I had no idea there was a Sonic thread. I got back into the series before attending a Sonic Symphony concert last year and it's been hell on my psyche. It's so hard finding women into the franchise that are not annoying or kinda dumb. I hate seeing that Fadel guy everywhere.
>>452766This is so cute, I always saw Shadow as having a one-sided crush on Maria tbh. They have a very sweet friendship. I'm kind of empathetic towards western fans aversion to it though, both considering some of it's advocators and with how some people talk about Maria… besides, people always hated seeing sonic characters with human characters kek.

>>454738AYRT and honestly I have no clue. I don't want to be mean think that gen z has gotten a lot of crap media in children's animation when they were growing up but it does feel like nevwer cartoons lacked the edge and/or depth that older ones did (with some exception of course). Not to say that all the media we millennials got were great of course lol.
But yeah I agree with what you said about Sonic and how they bombed it. I didn't know that Jim Carrey liked to play serious roles considering the typecast he has but if that's the case, I agree that they should've let him do that for Gerald because what they ended up doing was just awful. I remember hella cringing at the
scene of Gerald and Robotnik having a (grand)father and son bonding montage, it was not funny at all and just cemented how much they fucked up Gerald's character.I don't know what to think about the 4th movie tbh. Like on the one hand we're getting Amy and I appreciate how in recent years they've given her more of a personality beyond being a Sonic fangirl but after seeing how they dropped the ball with the third movie, I have a feeling they might screw up again.
>Ben Scwartz SonicI'm indifferent towards Ben's voice but I can understand those who don't like the performance. I think I don't mind it too much since it kinda reminds me a little bit of Ryan Drummond's voice and he's my favorite voice for Sonic and if they were to use one of the game actors instead, I would've hoped that they'd get Ryan instead of Roger Craig Smith as I just could never get into his voice for Sonic as he makes him sound much older.

>>455076>Didn't know Jim Carrey liked to play serious rolesI remember there was a period of time from the early 2000s to the 2010s where Carrey was trying to break free from comedy. He actually starred in some ok movies. I enjoyed the Truman Show but I never saw Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind. As a person I think Carrey is a disgusting pretentious shithead but I know as an actor he likes to try different things. Having Gerald be dead serious and Eggman be goofy and having those two personas clash would have been something I think he would have really enjoyed (and may have been why he even agreed to take the role again)
As far as the 4th movie goes… I mean, they should do it or whatever but I'm still annoyed with how this all panned out. I wish it could have been fully animated with everyone major in it right away like the Mario movie. Maybe they could have had the classic cast for the first movie and then put Shadow and Rouge in the second movie. I absolutely fucking HATE the "what if nostalgia cartoon were real" trope. It was so bad, in the previews before the movie EVERY fucking movie was that. It felt dystopian.
>Ben Shwartz.Yeah, I more hated the character of Sonic than the voice. Would it have killed them to make Sonic cool? Like he feels so lame and tryhard and it just ISN'T Sonic at all. Sonic isn't supposed to be a lame ass version of Shadow. Both Sonic and Shadow are meant to be two different kinds of cool clashing against one another.
It was annoying that when Sonic acts more like Shadow after he thinks pedo lord dies is when Sonic actually acted more like Sonic.tl;dr.
Hate pedowood. Love Sonic.

>>454978I've seen a few people go out of their way to harass others online for not liking those two along with people who make sexual remarks about Maria, it seems that people who like Shadaria have a bad reputation online because of them. A lot of fans seem to be socially inept autistic women who like Shadow however, so I have a soft spot for them. The stuff that goes down in these circles is interesting to watch sometimes, but I feel bad for some of the women who have to deal with it. I also agree that sonic males look really cute with the human women! Maybe it's because of how short they are next to the girls, it makes them look cute and unassuming. Seeing human males with sonic women just feels wrong to me lol
I kinda miss the genuine Sonic autism that was on DeviantART back then. I vaguely remember this one blonde artist who shipped herself with Sonic and got a lot of hate.

>>455977I guarantee that 99 percent of the "shadrias" who are sexualizing Maria without even aging her up are moids. For me it's not a sexual ship. Its a tragic romance.
I think a lot of the shit that Sonic fans got was mostly from male fans with a couple of female autists who were unhinged but ultimately harmless like that one crazy french woman who married Sonic but divorced him after learning he was voiced by a 3D moid (reasonable). Female Sonic fans tend to get shit because of the reputation created by male Sonic fans.
Sonic is great for human women, he was originally made with a human girlfriend (picrel).

>>456344He's cute but if we are going by muzzle colors the Sonic character that would be canonically black is Ray the flying squirrel.
Ethnically speaking Knuckles would be Mesoamerican and his muzzle is actually lighter than Sonics (it's dark in SA2 due to weird lighting issues. Even though Rouge is actually based off of Jennifer Lopez)
Sorry. Just a pet peeve due to Sonic fans trying to make everyone (except tails for some reason) darker than they actually are. fwiw I don't mind darker skin on human knuckles in that picture. This is one of the better human sonics I've seen.

>>456020Aw I remember her. I remember feeling indifferent to seeing her ship herself with Sonic though honestly I didn't know she was shipping herself with him at first lol. But it seemed harmless enough. I certainly thought her self-insert shipping was more wholesome than the self-shipping of a Sonic fangirl named AkaiDalia who was known for portraying Sonic as a
abusive borderline rapist and people used to call her depiction of him "Sonic the Rapehog" (that unsettling lol).

>>456186My favorite Sonic song without lyrics has to be "Theme to Metal City" or really any of Blaze's stage songs from Sonic Rush. My favorite with lyrics has to be either "Catch Me If You Can" or "Sonic Speed Riders" though. All of the songs from both Rush and Riders are ingrained into my mind, those games make me so happy.
>>456829I enjoyed some things about the 3rd movie (and I think its the best of the bunch honestly), but I still can't say I am a fan of the movie series at all. The scene with the stupid dog and the subtitles angered so badly, I feel like that falls under the cringe gen z/millennial stuff you're talking about. They put that scene right at the start too, and it sucked any optimism I had about the movie out of me immediately. I think the thing I hate most with these movies is the forced "found family" aspect of it. I just feel like each movie trampled more on aspects of Sonic's character that make him likable and cool in the first place. Them adding more characters into each subsequent movie just makes it worse because it gives them more characters to fuck up. I didn't watch that Knuckles series, but learning he apparently left the master emerald with some idiot cop loser (that doesn't respect it at all judging from what he was doing with it) was probably the thing that made me the angriest in the movie. And why is he willing to stay with Sonic and Tails and this random married couple? So they can be their weird adopted pets/children? I hate it. Is this done so it can be easily marketed to and relatable for kids? Whatever the reason, it sucks and missed the mark.

He's not a hyperactive scatterbrained child who tries too hard to be funny and is #relatable to the younger zoomers and alphas. The movies completely fumble his characterization and they have easily the worst Sonic portrayal to date.

>>456829it was just so bad. And I made the mistake of having some optimism for it because I didn't really care for the first two films and thought maybe with a serious plot introduced through Shadow's debut may be what the movie needed and they fumbled the ball hard fucking up one of the best stories presented in a Sonic game that made my millennial ass heart weep. Like discussed upthread, they did Gerald so dirty with "that" portrayal and like mentioned before, the "bonding" scene and the laser room scene, I just could not hang.
>Don't like the human charactersSame! Nevermind that the two actors don't really have all that much chemistry, I just don't see them as a couple because of the awkward chemistry between them but even if their relationship was believable, they'd still be the worst aspect of the movie because we don't come to Sonic for them, we come for Sonic and his "stupid friends" (lol).
And it's just cringe seeing Sonic, Tails, and Knuckles being treated like children by them. Like what the actual fuck… At least in Sonic X as cringe and annoying as Chris Thorndyke was, Sonic wasn't treated as a dumb kid and I say this as someone who didn't even like Sonic X…
I mean I get that Sonic is supposed to be a teenager but I dunno, just seeing how he's portrayed in the movies when he's interacting with his "found parents" just irritates me so much. I don't mind it as much for Tails because he's the youngest so it makes a little more sense but Sonic and Knuckles? Ehhhh…

Of course if they did that they would have had to put another 5 million into fixing taxedermy tails like they did with ugly 2019 movie sonic.
I still can't believe how badly they fucked this movie up. Was it actually written by AI or is hollywood just that bad? They literally had a grade A story to work with and they shit all over it.
Also yeah, I always liked the ages being an afterthought other than some characters being obviously older (like eggman and big) and some being obviously younger (like tails and cream) but not treating Sonic like he's a certain age. Kind of like how other cartoons like mickey mouse and shit do it.

Colleen O'Shaughnessey said there could be a movie without the humans, but I doubt we'll ever see it. I disagree with her sentiment about them balancing the human and the animated characters screentime.

It definitely takes it out of a video game, and really helps ground it into a more real world situation, if that makes sense.

Sega doesn't give a shit about it's IP like Nintendo cares about Mario. Even if the Mario movie was boring and safe, it was still a breath of fresh air being fully animated (even if I'm sick and tired of fully 3D animation. The last animated movie I fully enjoyed was Puss and Boots which had that hybrid style and it looked great and was written great)
People keep claiming 3D is cheaper, which might be true but idk, I think when you cheap out you take less risks since you realize the movie can make or break. Old 3D was riskier which is why the franchises from 30 years ago are still going strong but new 3D movies that aren't based on an existing nostalgia franchise are dead on arrival.
God. What I wouldn't give for more Sonic animated in 2D like pic rel.

That's literally why he acts so aloof and anxious is because he loves her and as some adventure/freedom obsessed maniac it makes him anxious. But Amy loves him as he is because she is also an adventure/freedom obsessed maniac. She isn't awkward about it because she wears her heart out in the open. She isn't scared to express her feelings whereas Sonic is a scrote and is retarded and stoic.

>>461565I agree Sonic shouldn't be a romance. But Amy consistently flirting with Sonic and making him anxious doesn't make the franchise go from an action adventure to a romance. It's just that westerners don't like this style of relationship in media. Eastern media ALWAYS had Amy crush on Sonic. It's just that Ian Flynn is a staunch anti Sonamy and is trying to erase it (maybe due to his history working in archie)
Anyways, it's not about Sonamy becoming canon, I just think removing Amy's romantic affection towards Sonic is a disservice to her character.

>>462544>Give me an explicit example from a mainline game.That's not how the relationship works, nona. The way he shows he returns her feelings is subtle. That's what makes sonamy fun. Believe me, at first, I wasn't receptive to the ship. But over time as I got deeper into Sonic, I realized it actually works quite well. Sonamy isn't even my favorite Sonic ship. I can give you a hint though that Sonic has feelings for Amy: The fact that Sonic gets nervous around Amy more than anyone else shows he has feelings. Sonic is incredibly straight laced even if he acts cool and laid back. You can see Sonic gets a tiny bit flustered around princess Elise, but he's consistently flustered around Amy. When Amy doesn't recognize Sonic as the werehog in Sonic unleashed, Sonic is visibly upset. He likes when Amy dotes on him, even if it makes him anxious.
Again, Sonamy is NOT my favorite Sonic ship. But I like the dynamic. It's cute and taking it away does a great disservice to Amy. It's not a will they wont they kind of thing like westerners like to think, it's an ongoing advanture.

My dream is for there to be a game with hand drawn 2D graphics. They just announced a samurai pizza cats game thats in the style of my dream Sonic game. Don't get me wrong, I think 3D Sonic has the potential to be great (like if 06 had been more polished it looks like it could have been on par with the adventure games). But 2D has a soft spot for me. I love the animations in the advance sprites, and Sonic just looks magical in 2D.

>>463094>No longer recognizable to his friendsTails recognizes him pretty quickly. It's obvious Sonic gets upset because he likes when Amy hugs him even if it makes him feel weird. Keep in mind there's also several games where Sonic goes on a date with Amy.
>Kisses EliseWhile the kiss was based, Elise kissed Sonic while he was dead like a rule 63 Snow White (not the other way around). Also in Sonic 06 you can choose between Amy and Elise in some weird mission that ultimately has no effect on the rest of the game. Elise also forgets about Sonic at the end of 06. This was also before the mandates that now ban Sonic from kissing.
It's surprising to me that you think there is no subtlety in the Sonic franchise (come on! Look at the relationship between Shadow and Maria and tell me there isn't nuance in how their relationship could be interpreted!).
Sure, in the western continuity everything is in your face. But the Japanese continuity is far more complex. Unfortunately we are blighted with shitty western authors like Ian Flynn who have no respect for the characters whatsoever. But it's weird for you to say "Sonic definitely doesn't return Amy's feelings because he gets flustered around her and he doesn't scream his love for her to the heavens even if that's totally out of character for him." The creators of Sonic have tried to explain that Sonic has romantic feelings for Amy but cannot make sonamy (or any ship) canon because it goes against the vision they have for the character.
Taking away Sonic and Amy's chemistry like flynn is trying to do is ruining Amy (AND sonic)
I used to be staunchly anti sonamy, but once you're deep in the autism sauce, you realize their dynamic is incredibly cute and without it the franchise, and especially Amy, loses it's sparkle.
No. 463217>>463255
>>463179I just don't agree with you and tbh the reasons you listed are really grasping at straws. No matter how you try to slice it, Sonic has canonically smacked lips with Elise and never Amy. It's never been a solidified relationship because not one director ever wanted it to be. Amy was created as a damsel-in-distress character very of the time, and when not in that role they designated her to a fangirl stereotype that follows him around because they didn't know what to do with her character. The games do her a real disservice. But regardless, Sonic has been shown running/avoiding her as often as he's been shown accepting her attention - and sometimes it's been portrayed as reluctant.
>But it's weird for you to say "Sonic definitely doesn't return Amy's feelings because he gets flustered around her and he doesn't scream his love for her to the heavens even if that's totally out of character for him." why did you greatly exaggerate what I said? Weird. What I actually said was that all the moments you intepret as him being flustered by the attention because he wants it but doesn't know how to tell Amy, can also be intepret as him being flustered because he doesn't, and he doesn't know how to nicely reject Amy. That is because their 'relationship' is very shallow. Ironically, the gif you posted is a perfect example. I suppose you'll say it's mutual romance, but to me it looks like the Sonic is getting annoyed at the Amy for smothering him as he tries to escape lol very in character for them both!

In 2018, Naoto Ohshima (creator of sonic) explained that Sonic is "immature with a boy’s heart. He then stated that Sonic matures with an adult heart, he’d want and choose to be with Amy."
He was made to like Amy, but in the same way a boy doesn't fully realize his love for a girl. It's unblossomed love. Americans just don't really understand that.

>>464626He's straight up a school shooter. Sonic prime is shit, but there's some hints of redeeming moments (nothing that makes the show worth watching though). Like I really liked Shadows voice actor and his characterization wasn't bad. Sonic is written like absolute dogshit in prime. I don't know if he's as bad or better than Movie Sonic. Maybe better since he doesn't have the cringe human family. School shooter Tails is a great concept (he's an AU Tails who comes from a universe where Sonic dind't exist to save him from his bullies so he learned to fight back and also is a huge edgelord, hence the school shooter shit)
I loved Tails in Sonic X. Him and Cosmo are so cute! The filler episodes of Sonic X are boring, but when the show hits, it hits hard!

I actually own a few of the IDW sonic omnibuses I had no idea Ian Flynn was controversial. I've always seen his take on sonic being pretty highly praised. Can someone enlighten me? I'm a newer fan, well newly an invested fan. My first exposure to sonic as a kid was through Sonic Generations, Sonic Unleashed, and the Sonic X anime (English dub). I'm trying to get deeper into Sonic lore and stuff because the lens I had into sonic was limited. My mom was really Christian when I was young so I wasn't able to do a lot especially online. I got really into drawing sonic and some old love was rekindled, actually a lot of old love was rekindled lol. Any must play games I should give a shot. Also is there any finite place to read up fully on sonic lore? I still don't know much of the bio-lizard and other stuff.

>>464835Sonic Adventure 1 and 2 are must plays! You can get them on Steam relatively cheap. A lot of the lore originated from those 2 games. They’re a lot of fun to play, though the controls are a little janky at times. Sonic Heroes is also fun but it’s not on steam (there is a PC version though). The controls on that one are legitimately fucked but it’s an ugly duckling fave for a reason. Really pretty environments and a sick final boss. If you’ve read through IDW you’ll know who it is.
I’m not sure why Ian Flynn is becoming divisive, maybe it’s the inherent contrarian nature of sonic fandom. I know some people complain he changes the characters in a way they don’t like or that he doesn’t “respect the Japanese versions.” Sonic characters have few identifying characteristics so fans invent lot of headcanon and interpretations then get get mad when writers don’t match up to the fantasy version of the character they built in their head.

>>462177AYRT (sorry for late response lol) and see, I actually didn't mind Amy in SA1. Yeah she was a bit annoying but I think they did good giving her something else to focus on i.e taking care of Birdie and standing up to Zero, I still get chills when she gets mad when Birdie gets shot down and she's like "That's it, you're gonna pay!" lol. I think I may have also been excited since it was the first time you got to play as a female Sonic character in an adventure game (iirc). She was definitely treated horribly in SA2 in terms of not letting her be apart of the action. The part in the game when they go to the space colony and leave Amy behind, that could've been a good moment to play as her and explore some of the colony as her.
>The Tarot cardsOh my gosh I forgot that she used to have those based on the wiki and manual that tidbit came from. They never seem to get brought up in the games at all up until Sonic Origins where you see her with them.

>>469374Boom really is best in clip form. The show itself is… okay. Some people really like it!
Now, if I was going to choose between Sonic X and Sonic Prime, I'd go for Sonic X with subtitles. It's less about the voices and more that the American localization does some incredibly horrendous shit with the show, like stuff that makes no sense but I wouldn't want to explain out of risk of spoilers. The filler is kind of lame, and the show has some weird moid writer moments but there is a surprising amount of profound depth in some moments of the show, but it's just springled in here and there.
I would 100% watch X. The third season is apparently the best, I've only watched a few episodes and some are kind of meh, but others are great. I think Sonic X in Japanese is my favorite characterizations of the cast of Sonic. Sonic X was actually what made me stop hating Sonamy. There's a beach episode early on and it's really cute.

>>469728The thing is there's Japan Sonic and West Sonic, they really are two different beasts.
Japan Sonic is more introverted and likes to do his own thing. He cares about his friends but he doesn't actively seek them out, they are the ones who find him. Japan Sonic also isn't as hyper as west Sonic. Japan Sonic is perfectly content chilling and snoozing on the beach with a nice drink in between his fun adventures, whereas I think western Sonic gets bored with prolonged peace.
idk. Sonic is such an autistic series with all it's little bits and pieces that leave a lot of room for fan interpretation.
I still prefer Japan to the west. Usually when I draw Sonic I look to japanese/official art for reference. Some western fans are fantastic artists, but others are just god awful.

>>470392>>470398Sit down nonas I am about to get autistic:
So, there's two types of western Sonic. There's classic western (think SatAM/AOSTH shows in th 90s) and modern western Sonic.
Classic western Sonic, in my opinion, is fantastic. He's pretty much just a fast Bugs Bunny, which works great for him. It's not complex or nuanced, but who gives a fuck he is a children's cartoon character.
The issue is that modern western Sonic is not like that at all. He's preachy and acts like a therapy character (which not only goes against Sonic's inherent nature in general but basically renders Amy obsolete). I fucking can't stand Sonic going on long tirades trying to talk to his buddies about their issues (see Ian Flynn's shitty writing in Sonic Frontiers.) That isn't him.
To me Sonic is best as the guy who sees AU Knuckles trying to kill himself in Sonic and the Black Knight and is like "cut it out fag" and it works.
I wouldn't mind a western modern Sonic that just goes back to the 90's cartoon blue Bugs Bunny. Leave the therapy shit to Amy.

>>470579>He sounds so nasally to me like in Sonic colors.Rodger Craig Smith was the voice for Sonic in that game. I believe it was the first Sonic game he voice acted in. I agree, he sounds like dogshit. I think Jason Griffith was getting better as Sonic's voice but then they replaced him in 2010. I fucking hate Rodger Craig Smith. He looks like fetal alcohol syndrome, is a manlet, and has used his shitty Sonic voice to cape for troons. But SEGA won't fucking get rid of him (probably because he works for slave wages).
For some reason they made him drop his voice 4 octaves for Sonic frontiers and to this day no one knows why.
The current voice actors suck. I hate Kirk Thornton for Shadow so much, he makes Shadow sound like a chain smoking 60 year old man. Shadow's original voice actor, David Humphery, was the best, he sounded like an edgy teen boy trying to keep his voice down so his mom wouldn't hear him. Though the voice actors for Sonic Prime were, for the most part, superior to the game cast. Nothing tops Japan Sonic. I hate to suck Sonic of Japans dick so much because the Japanese do not give a fuck about Sonic but they treat him the best. Japan Sonic has been the same voice actor since Sonic Adventure 1.

Before that, Jason Griffith was voicing a LOT of characters (Sonic, Shadow, Jet the Hawk, Sonic the Werehog). Jason wasn't perfect, especially in his early roles (he got his start in Sonic X replacing Ryan Drummond, who was modern Sonic's first VA.) but he sounds better in his final role in Sonic and the Black Knight. Rodger Craig Smith sucks. I just can't get into him as a Sonic VA. But of course, he's the one the westerners get stuck with for the longest.

I wish SatBK wasn't wiimote slop. I think if you could use a regular controller it would be a much more enjoyable game. I really like how the characters look with their cool fantasy armor.
When Sonic is written by the Japanese he really isn't that chatty. He says what needs to be said and not a word more. Then he leaves to let you think about it.
Back when I wasn't as exposed to as much Sonic media I was more forgiving of western writers, but the more I watched how Sonic acts when written by Japanese the more I wish the west would intergrade more of that characterization into Sonic.

She deleted everything after this guy made a video disagreeing with her.

I feel like Sonic isn’t extravert in the sense of “party animal who can’t stand to be alone,” but he’s still obviously really into seeking thrills and sensations and seems very comfortable interacting with people. He’s not inward-oriented at all. I think he just craves adventure and hates being tied down, which is why he moves from place to place frequently. Knuckles and Tails seem like introverts to me, probably Shadow too. Amy and Rouge are more extroverted.

>>471476Amy is definitely extroverted. When Amy does something, it's never alone. Even in her campaign in SA1 she was out helping a little birdie. Not to mention unlike Sonic, she wears her heart on her sleeve. Sonic hates tears, Amy has no issues crying in front of others.
Sonic has friends, but they seek him out rather than the other way around. If he comes across someone in need he will help them out, but things happen to him rather than the other way around. I know western modern Sonic is shown more as an extrovert who wants to be with his buddies and goes out of his way to play therapist with them, but Sonic is at his best when he's doing his own thing.
Like in Sonic X Chris gives Sonic a phone to get a hold of him and he's like "nah fuck this" and tosses it away. People will either find him or he can use his intuition to help those in need when he's needed.
Just because you aren't constantly seeking people out doesn't mean you only want to do boring things. There are plenty of real life introverted thrill seekers always seeking adventure and excitement.
I'm sorry but I am gonna side with the soft spoken hypersensitive autistic girl. Also I have had this extrovert vs introvert argument with a lot of Sonic fans. Whenever Sonic has been portrayed the best he tends to display more introverted qualities than extroverted ones.
Also, I'm angry you showed me that 'erm, ackshully' god awful cringe moid video. I love you nona, but I just want you to know if I can go the rest of my life never hearing a male Sonictuber speak again, it won't be soon enough.

I hope you get him too! I remember the only Sonic wii game I played was Unleashed and I can't remember the controls but I had so much fun in that game.
I'll ask a lighthearted question for you since I do feel a bit bad about the poor girl in the video and for you hearing that moid kek. How do you feel about
non coomer Sonic gijinkas nona? Or do you prefer them being in their regular mobain forms?

>>471522> How do you feel about Sonic gijinkas nona?As a turboautist with Sonic brain cancer who unironically chimps out about petty shit like the curve of Sonic's muzzle, I can be picky. Don't get me wrong, when a gijinka hits, it absolutely can be fantastic, especially when drawn by a super talented artist. I have seen some Amy gijinkas that I would love to see in some sort of cute scenario in the games or other media (a Sonic anime episode where Amy turns into a human girl would be adorable).
But for the most part, I am very much into on model styles. There has been off model stuff that looks good, but for the most part the stuff I will see is westernslop of someone drawing Sonic with and overly fuzzy body, a way too long snout, lashes that are way too thick
and zipper tits.
Human Sonic is something I have never really seen done right. Not by the most talented of fans, and not even by the actual Sonic creators.
Sonic really is just meant for the hedgehog life. Pic rel is the best Sonic gijinka I've seen, but idk if werehognic counts since there are so many changes to his design.

>>471533Giving you a werehog picrel because I can tell how much you love him, that picrel looks so cool omgI would absolutely love something like that with Amy! But I totally get it, it's really hard to find good designs for the hedgehog boys in my opinion. I rather stay far away from the western side when it comes to that shit, I hate seeing that everywhere nowadays
even when they give the fucking hedgehog the zippers, it makes me sickI agree, Sonic is better as a hedgehog. I know it's been said on the thread but it so much cuter when the girls are human and the boys are still the same. I'm so weak for things like that.

>>471515To be honest without agreeing on a definition of introvert and extravert any conversation on this will be going in circles. If you go by the idea that "introverts are recharged by being alone," then Sonic is an introvert because as you put it, he doesn't seek out people and a lot of his time is spent being by himself. But the older definition from Jung (the guy who invented the concept) is that introverts direct their energy inwards and extraverts direct their energy outwards. In that definition, introverts will end up being much more interested in their internal world than the outer one. And Sonic is clearly more interested in the external world than the internal one as shown by the "you're a fag" interaction. Sonic does not ruminate, he acts.
I'll take your word on how he acts in Sonic X. I don't think there's anything wrong with a more introverted approach to Sonic anyway. I feel like the base of "just a guy who loves adventure" is flexible enough you can do a lot with him. It'd be interesting to see future games that focus on that aspect of him, like what he does when he's between adventures. I like the Ian Flynn writing but he's a little too wordy, and in Frontiers Sonic almost feels too "mature," he's like a dad to everyone. Maybe I'm just too nostalgic for Adventure Sonic and his high pitched voice and unshakeable demeanor.
>>471522I've only ever seen Sonic gijinkas or human forms on Tumblr and they're usually pretty bad. It's difficult to translate concepts from his base design without being overly literal or losing the frame of reference entirely. On a semi-related note, I can't stand non-robot versions of Metal Sonic for this reason, they always end up looking like Sonic but edgier.

>>471771Searched up human Metal Sonic to see what he would look like, very disappointed.
Should've made him look like X from MegamanJoking aside, I totally agree with what you said. Sometimes I feel like those people on twitter or tumblr try way too hard with the designs and make them look very ugly or unrecognizable from what I've seen. I did grew up seeing anime human versions of Sonic and friends and even though most are pretty bland, I would prefer that over the slop I've been seeing. At least they put some soul and effort in it back in the day.

>>471676This is incredible. Mecha MK 3 Sonic is the most underrated Sonic character. I will never not be pissed that jakks has not made a figure of him, he is my favorite iteration of robot Sonic (I love metal and all his super cool forms too, just not as much) and I have very little to go off of when it comes to reference material. Like we got so much Metal Sonic merch, and then they have Mecha MK 2 Sonic from Sonic 2 (who we all just called Silver Sonic back in the day)
and for the record, I do not like scrapnik island Mecha Sonic. I just hate the design>>471771>I like the writing of Ian Flynn but also understands that Frontiers Sonic was written like shit.It's not the nostalgia, nona. We all had an "Ian Flynn isn't actually that bad" phase at one point in our lives. You are almost there. Give it time. I'm telling you though, there are real life adventurers who I would see as more introverted. And to say a introvert wouldn't stop their friend from killing themselves is a weird way to view introversion. Sonic really doesn't do much in between adventures. Sometimes he runs around, sometimes he just chills at the beach. But yeah, unless he's forced out by Amy or someone, he's usually just by himself, doing his own thing.
I would definitely watch Japanese Sonic X if I were you (skip the early, Chris focused filler episodes, except the beach one because it's cute. The baseball episode sucks shit and hardly has Sonic in it anyways.) It really is an eye opening experience to show how Sonic
should act. I wish the Japanese didn't hate Sonic so much, kek.

>>471579 Saving this, Werehog Sonic best fluffy boy.
>>470981 Seconding the Roger Smith stuff. I loved Ryan and Jason is my personal pick in favorite VA for Sonic alongside Kanemaru of course, but Roger… Oh god, he sounds like total dogshit. This guy keeps voicing Sonic since 2010 and a fucking decade later it still the same bullshit without any remarkable changes, and of course the late zoomer fandom is whiteknighting him just because the cringe jokes in the Twitter Takeovers or doing the vare minimum in Frontiers. The only voice I like from this era is Colleen (Tails), he sounds kinda cute honestly.
VA drama aside, when I was younger (with unlimited internet access included) I liked a lot of the fanmade stuff: Sonic Shorts, kusoge flash games, the translations of the Archie Comics in my language, DA fanarts… and of course the fandom is still a fucking septic tank with lots of manchildren infighting here and there. Also I hate with my entire soul the
Sonic with zipper tits and/or worse stuff like having an actual vaginaJumpscares aside, any of you had interactions with the asian fandom? My weeb ass made me a fan of some artists in DA like Lenmeu, lujiii, aoki(numbers here), and others, basically learned (sort of) drawing because I copied their fanarts with my notebook, a pencil and a dream of becoming "cool" like them kek.
Pic related is by hyeon_sonic on Shitter. I really like her style and the comics she made.

>>471824The Japanese Sonadow artists are a force to be reckoned with. I adore them. I hate to say it but the (mostly female) Japanese/Asian Sonic coomers make some incredible artwork.
I love Aoki the most. I posted her artwork on here several times, and I'm posting it again. I love Hyeon, SA1KA, Chaosrices, Rokuro (Sonknux shipper. Not a coomer afaik) and a few others. But yeah I swear to god some of these really talented Sonic artists are degens. At least it's well drawn and even if they get weird, it's more tasteful than the moid/gendie slop I've had the misfortune of seeing.

See? This is what I mean when I said Ian Flynn sucks shit.
The art is pretty good, ABT is showing signs of improvement (even though he's a degen coomer). ABT and Evan Stanley have been shown to listen to fan feedback for their artwork. But Flynn is still too obsessed with needing Sonic to CONSTANTLY make references. It's tired and old. All the dialogue on this page is a reference.
It's all so tiresome and Flynn has long overstayed his welcome.

>>472521 I saw some drama about the bitching in Flynn's writing. In my personal opinion, heavily dislike everything in Frontiers related to the history, Im tired of this discourse about Knux/Amy/Tails going like "hey senec I think im depending on u too much even if u do the stuff a good fren does ok bye XD" and sometimes the Sonic he does it feels off. ¿It is the same guy who loved adventures and saved the world because he does what he wants? The last straw of the "true" Sonic we saw was in the Storybook series and Unleashed. Maybe is a tinfoil but the reason I think we dont see this Sonic-sona anymore is because Sega wants a role model bigcorpo mascot for the kids with all the rules that implies. And with that, it will determinate how Flynn will write the setting.
Flynn had better writings in Archie sometimes. People forgets that on purpose just to shit in Penders or because The Freedom Fighters/Scourge/Pre-Genesis Wave are… le bad No. 474644>>476076
>>474593Sonic was a big corpo whore from day one. Everything about him was to compete with Mario. Sonic can still be written good and there's no excuse for this current bad writing. Sonic is best doing his own thing. In Sonic X, his friends weren't hyper dependent on him for everything. Characters like Knuckles would rather die than ask Sonic for help. If anything, Knuckles always came off as desperate for any excuse to not trust Sonic and beat him up. Tails and Amy admire Sonic, but Tails didn't need to talk to Sonic about needing to be strong and independent. That conversation happened in adventure 1 and Tails proves his independence by saving Sonic's ass more than the other way around. Amy does need her ass saved by Sonic from time to time, but she also does her fair share of saving him, not to mention Amy has no issues lecturing Sonic and calling him a little bitch.
Sonic isn't really there to give advice. He might say something to make someone think, but he's generally pretty vague.
I hate Ian Flynn. I hate his crying lesbians and how no woman is allowed to be a villain in his works. I hate daddy Sonic. Flynn needs to go. We need a weeb japnic purist who is obsessed with how the characters were portrayed in Sonic X.
Sonic X had cooler OC shit anyways.
Flynn's early work was good for the same reason Penders' early work was good: He was being tard wrangled. The less power, the better. I call it the George Lucas effect. No. 474687>>474726

But to be fair, I always do a mental double take when I hear younger fans say that SnapCube's dub was their introduction to Sonic Adventure or Sonic Adventure 2 or how their introduction to the games was through watching Let's Plays of the game on YouTube and it just reminds me of how old I'm getting to where fans are watching Let's Plays as opposed to playing the games themselves.

He was crazy though and would consistently make 1 hour+ animations once or even twice a month for like 10 years while having under 5k subscribers. I'm sure youtube got pissed at him for him constantly making all his non gay characters insanely homophobic or some shit (also I think he was finally growing subs).
I'm sure snapcube will probably get cancelled for grooming kids or some shit in a couple years. Hes so gross and troons liking sonic is ALWAYS a red flag.

I still have my original Gamecube from 2003 and it still works alogn with my Sonic games so the emulator thing didn't even cross my mind lol. So with this context, there's no excuse for these kids if they have the means. GO OUT AND PLAY'EM for yourself LOL
Though I will admit that sometimeswith these Gen z who play SA1 & SA2 and they say that they don't get why the games are so beloved and are mediocre to "bad" and it's like a knife in the heart and I'm just muttering to myself "You just had to be there man!" kek. Because even if a lot of us who grew up with the game have nostalgia for it, they were genuinely good games in their heyday.
>TamersOh wow lol Yeah I never really knew much about him outside of his Sonic videos but 1 hour animations?? Wow kek. Yeah his videos more than likely were flying under the radar until he started getting more subbed and it made YouTube aware of his channel.

I did play a bit of sa1 at a friends house back when it first game out on the dreamcast and that shit graphically blew my mind at the time and I couldn't fathom graphics getting better lmao.
Anyways, I still think the games, while not perfect, are still very fun even by todays standards. They are more enjoyable than games like Frontiers, which wasn't bad but also not that fun either. And this is without the nostalgia glasses. They are fun, idk what to say.

and larp as true erudite fans rather to spend time playing "old games" even if they "like" this franchise. Also, I don't think is an actual generational problem, if even the oldfags in this hellish fandom bitch about X or Y media without seeing/playing it at least less an hour. Happened since the launch of SA1 imo.
