You never cease to surprise me blue hedgehog. I thought that capsule you were in exploded in space.

You know what I can say... I die hard! [Camera pans to the fake Emerald] You actually saved me, you know.

It was a Chaos Emerald, wasn't it? But, there's no way you could have activated the Chaos Control using an Emerald that's fake. [Sonic and Shadow start to run faster] So, there's more to you than just looking like me. What are you anyway?

I can't wait for several lines from this exchange to be repeated verbatim in the next game.

>Villain and Hero show a bit of mutual respect before committing to killing each other

It's crazy how 'anime' SA2 is under a microscope, really just a perfect storm of autism

It was played straight. That's the issue with the later Sonic games, they weren't played straight and had to downplay the more serious moments because forbid a story with stakes treats said stakes as an actual issue.

Kino sovl. I fucking love Sonic

Playing things too straight led to alisa

You mean Elise? She and the romantic subtext were the last issues with Sonic '06.

>I'll USE Y-
>CHAOS CONTROL!

did anyone else's disc have this glitch? it would cut off sonic's attack lines. i think I only ever heard the full "ill use y-OUR chaos control" on ytube vids of these boss fights.

>>713890762
isn't the full line something like
>I'll use YOUR technique!
>Chaos Control!

>>713890762
>>713892039
Not a glitch, the English version didn't adjust line timing from Japanese despite having longer lines.

>>713894034
Also shoddy translation in general. Shadow says "Is that what Chaos Control is" after the Bio-lizard warps to space which confused the fuck out of me as a kid but in JP he says "That was Chaos Control".

>>713895604
I mean yeah, that too.

>>713890258
SonicxElise wasn't even the first furryxhuman relationship. That would probably be ShadowxMaria.

>Eggman is having a deep moment of introspection after the end of SA2, seens like he's almost even considering giving up being a villain entirely
>Tails barges in with an ear splitting line about working together or some shit
Completely ruins an otherwise great scene

You mean soul? Unironically how dare you criticize the vo which is 100x more kino and closer to how people actually talk in real life

>>713890074
the thing is that SA2 took itself seriously because it was confident in the story it was delivering.
It was a weird, cringe story about mascot costume cartoon animals saving the world, and they commited to it every part of the way. That made it kino and autistic little children had no choice but to fall in love with it.

That's the problem with sonic stories afterwards. they weren't confident, they werer ashamed of what they were, they had to break tension with dumb jokes constantly undermining itself out of rejection of what they really are underneat. Always cringe, never achieving the kino.

Glad Shadow Generations took the body horror possession plot completely seriously.

>>713898863
Tails was based and probably did it on purpose because Eggman doesn't deserve anything other than a bullet to the head. Tails doesn't give a fuck, like how he says all's well that ends well after Chaos destroyed an entire city.

>>713898863
That was the point. Eggman was going to a dark place and then put it out of his mind because of the child's positivity.

I know Sonic fans are stupid but goddamn.

>>713899943
Guess that's why Sonic Frontiers and Shadow Generations snagged so many of those kind of fans, old and new, once again. Both of those hard commit to their over-the-top anime action movie plots and are far better for it.

This is a dubism, anons. The Japanese version of the scene has Tails just calmly telling Eggman that he how he thinks they really worked well together despite their differences.

>>713903072
I wish that was true. They're a bit less self deprecating, but they're just as vapid and traded dad jokes for fandom in-jokes and references. Frontiers and ShadGen have nothing to say.

How does that contradict
>Eggman was going to a dark place and then put it out of his mind because of the child's positivity.

Tails and Eggman secretly respect each other. It's why Eggman jumps in front of Tails to protect him in Lost World.
