I'm going to keep saying it, people are going to get sick of "serious" stories (especially the ones involving Shadow) very quickly.

Only Sonic can beat them, Tails needs to beg flickies to save him because his spindash is weak unlike the great and powerful SONIKKU!>whu? This girl character is meant to be flirty and flirt with Tails and her main attack is blowing big lipstick kisses at Tails? Well umm letโs obviously get rid of that! Her new personality is, um, sheโs sleepy and snarky and doesnโt care. Yeah fuck you Tails. This is important because, um, because portraying women like that is sexist.

>>530024261Okay, so this soundpost is broken. Damn.
>>530024460Why would they remove that
>>530024442This is literally every manโs fantasy
>>530023874I think people who say Sonic should be "shonen" like the 2000s or whatever only remember the cool parts because they played it when they were like 10 years old. This is still happening today: I saw plenty people complaining about the tone of Frontiers but most people were taken in by the spectacle because it's an utterly forgettable story.
>>530024442This is literally me if sonic was real. I love you sonikku (no homo)

Sonurge art is kind of cute, but it's the most OOC ship that regularly gets posted here so I can't enjoy it. Surge would not be attractive to him like some of the other girls are, he does have certain tastes, and Surge isn't a tsundere, she just hates Sonic. Plus it leans into Surge finding redemption which was always a big fat fucking mistake, she's most fun in villainy and she barely even got to do that.
>>530024482Sleepygirl is at least kind of unique. That was basically her personality even when she was more sexy and less cute.

Still waiting for conclusions for the mecha Sally and Scourge prison break arcs in pre reboot
>>530029132Try the fan continuations.
Eggman is evil because Shadow stole his incestuous big sis romcom.
It's all Shitdow's fault.
>>530024157What would they do together?
>>530029093If she's not a tails villain what her use in the story?
Characters for this feel?
>>530024482>Yeah theyโre scared of SONIC, not Tails.When in the anniversary special were they scared of Sonic? Why should they be scared of Tails?
> Sonic btfoes them and Sonic intimidates them with his le aura, they donโt know who tails isThey did remember Tails
>>530027739>Surge isn't a tsundere, she just hates SonicShe was programmed to hate Sonic by Starline
But you could argue that after Surge found out the truth about herself, she blamed Sonic for her situation because she was hurt, let down by the supposed hero, even though Sonic was guilty by association at best for Surge's manipulation. Under the right writer, Sonic and Surge's relationship can be quite compelling.
>>530030760Or she could be a failed concept trying to capitalize on another Shadow made for girls
>>530030760>even though Sonic was guilty by association at bestReally, nigga?
>>530029132What's to conclude? The world was going to shit, then it ended.
>>530030894Yeah, really. Sonic wasn't the one who kidnapped, brainwashed, and implanted cybernetics in her. Or Eggman. It was a third party, an obsessed platypus with delusions of grandeur.

>>530030342Espio and Vector
If Sonic was so big in the 90s, how did DK rape it in sales?
>>530032256Most sega genesis players were the fifa gamers of their time. The only sonic game that sold was the first one and that was bundled with the system.
>>530030760Surge would work better if they made her wacky gremlin character that love/hates Sonic. Like Helga from Hey Arnold but with superpowers. Action comedy like Dragon Ball and One Piece. Dramatic moments too, yes. But don't go too far or you'll end up making a gay soap opera. Don't be thinking like a writer and think like a cartoonist. That way you won't make something lame and gay on account of you being a fucking nerd over Sonic of all things. Fuck writers.
>>530030457When Sonic oneshotted them all effortlessly at the start and needed to be ambushed from behind, and at the end effortlessly when Sonic effortlessly dodges Witchcart's beams and then does le scawwy face at Witchcart and she runs off scared of le Sonic Sama instead of her actual enemy Tails
She should be scared of Tails because Tails - the FLYING character who ALREADY beat them up in the game - is the one capable of defeating them, not Sonic the character who can't fly and doesn't know how to fight them.
>>530032431>Most sega genesis players were the fifa gamers of their timeThat's right, Madden and Mortal Kombat. Guess no one thought Sonic was cool, nor gave that much a fuck about him. Probably thought DK was cooler too.
>>530032785I think your Tails bias is making you a little schizophrenic
>>530032838Reminder that the Mario movie had a budget of 100 million, less than Sonic 3 but more than 1 and 2. And because it made a billion easy, its profit was enormous. Mario made more money no matter what. Stitch also had a budget of 100 million and made an easy billion too. At the end of the day, no one gives a fuck about Sonic.
>>530033158I don't think it's bias to think Tails should beat his own enemies, and not have to beg flickies to beat them up for him after Sonic trounces them with zero effort
Next Game let's have Tails oneshot Eggman's strongest mech with a spindash, then Sonic's weak one bounce off so he starts crying for Cheese to beat Eggman up for him cause he's so much weaker than Tails and can't be strong like Tails is.
Sonicfags would kill themselves all around the globe. For Tailsfags that's just tuesday.
>>530024482>>530032785> How Anon imagines Tails
>>530033404I imagine Tails being able to fight his own bad guys, Ian. Now go lose some weight you sonic self-inserting hippo
Sonic's objectively a shitty character who only exists as a parasite to leech off of other characters' coolness because he has no real coolness of his own.
Noone can seem more competent at anything or else noone would ever think Sonic is cool, that's why they need to drag every other character down whenever fagnic is around to create artificial coolness. Tails will job and seem incompetent even around his own bad guys to show off how Sonic beats them so much easier even in an issue that is meant to be Tails' anniversary, Sonic only exists to shit on Tails and make Tails look weak to lift himself up.
>>530033469Ian hates Sonic. He reminds him of his school time bullies.
>>530033567Ian shits on Tails to wank Sonic. Ian self inserts as Sonic. Sonic is the avatar for autistic losers irl who have to imagine themselves as a hedonistic powerfantasy whose entire verse only exists to cheerlead for him.
>>530033531>Sonic only exists to shit on Tails and make Tails look weak to lift himself up.Dude, he's the fucking sidekick. Sonic's the PROTAG. Quit bitching.
FLICKIES HELP ME THIS IS BASE FOCKEWULF I'M UP AGAINST
>>530033653Most protags let the other characters do shit because they're not ass.
Sonic's just a spoiled narcissistic piggy who shits on the other cast to make himself look better.
>>530033730>Most protags let the other characters do shitNot when you ONLY play as the protag, which you do in recent Sonic games. Again, quit bitching.

>>530033653>Dude, he's the fucking sidekickThe "Hero/sidekick" dynamic is one of parasitising, yes. It's a relic of an old age when people were still experimenting with storytelling in the action genre. But now we've found better dynamics, so this one should be promptly replaced, although not forgotten.
>>530033787No, they often do shit on the side or in the cutscenes too.
Sonic, since Unleashed and in Lost World and in Forces, retconned the other characters - especially Tails - as weak and pathetic and unable to fight because noone thinks Sonic is cool so he had to shit on them to [prop himself up.
Again, Sonic is a shitty character who dragged down Tails because Sonic himself is a loser who isn't cool.
>>530033860>Sonic is a shitty character who dragged down Tails because Sonic himself is a loser who isn't cool.Bro, none of this shit's cool. Sonic AND Tails. It's all lame as fuck shit for retards like you to sperg about.
Remember in Lost World when Sonic was trouncing Eggman's whole army while Tails - cowering in fear behind a rock - got oneshotted by a buzz bomber?
Then Sonic had to retreat and said "I could've easily beaten all the bad guys at once, but because you can't fight Tails that's why I have to rescue you. Because i'm amazing but you're weak and you would get hurt because you can't fight and only I can"
Shitty. Character.
Tailsfags haven't gotten the memo the name of the franchise is "SONIC THE HEDGEHOG" it seems
>>530033627>Sonic is the avatar for autistic losers irl who have to imagine themselves as a hedonistic powerfantasy whose entire verse only exists to cheerlead for him>Shadow is the avatar for autistic losers irl who have to imagine themselves as an edgy powerfantasy whose entire verse exists to cower before him
>>530033942Tails was cool. Tails Adventure was badass. Anything with Sonic is just lame pretentious shit making every decent character into the faggy gary stu's wankers.
>>530034021Funny, I played Ghost of Tsushima the other day and just because his name is the title didn't mean he completely lobotomised every other character to make himself look good.
Almost as if being a protag doesn't excuse you being a shitty self-insert.
>>530034056What do Silverfags and Scourgefags and Amyfags do?
Sonic & Tails only work if Sonic is the absolute pinnacle of coolness that no one could ever even hope to match, and Tails is the junior successor that has the potential to go beyond that absolute pinnacle of coolness to reach an even greater height no one could even conceive of.
>>530034056>Blaze is the avatar for autistic losers irl who have to imagine themselves as a composed, regal badass whose entire verse exists to quietly respect them while they pretend they donโt crave validation.
>>530034129Sonicfags but time travel, Sonicfags but "what wood happin if I stopped holding back hnyeh hnyeh", Sonicfags but fantasy where girls want them
It's so beautiful to see...
This board used to be filled with windfags (called paragonfags back then), it was just me and like 2 other anons vs. the world. Now, they're rightfully getting pushed back.
The Gary Stus will suffer.
>>530034205>Tails is the junior successor that has the potential So potential man?
>>530034129Scourge would probably fall into the same camp as Shadow, but anyone who self-inserts as silver or amy probably just does so because those characters have traits they identify with, not because they have a power fantasy.
>>530034205noone asked you Sparky, fuck off
>>530023394I hope Carrottia, Bearanger, Hocke, and Witchcart are here too

The people bitching about sonic being a Gary Stu/Writer's Pet who is largely exempt from in-universe consequences are right, but I know there's at least a 50% chance those people are shadowfags.
>>530034121Not even remotely comparable cases. Yet what else to expect from tailsfags but to completely misunderstand a simple mascot franchise.
Here's a tip: don't simp for the beta follower supporting character next time
>>530034205umm uhhhh. this sucks
>>530034205Sonic being the pinnacle of coolness is fine. Sonic having everything go his way 100% of the time because he's just a great guy is not.
>>530034464you "don't fear the fall" but you do fear going outside and getting a job, since irl you're a pathetic adult neet and not a blue "shonen" hedgehog.
>>530034618I don't fear either of those things.
I apply for jobs, they just don't hire me.

I wish Sega treated Tails like how Nintendo treats Luigi.
Sonic 1 fact. This is probably the earliest known leftover in Sonic 1.
Some news footage of Sega R&D aired about four months before the Tokyo Toy Show in June 1990. Although brief and not immediately obvious, this video is the earliest known footage of Sonic the Hedgehog: It shows a portion of prototype collision source code on a computer and a brief snippet of blurry gameplay on an adjacent TV screen.
https://files.catbox.moe/dczvwp.gif
https://youtu.be/CRphv7x97uw
The few seconds of "game" footage make it clear that this is extremely early in development, with crudely basic placeholder graphics and a test level with slopes, thought to be for testing loop-de-loops (in Sonic the Hedgehog, loops work by swapping out chunks on the fly; parts of what look like the bottom of a loop and the top of a loop can be seen here). There is also a small rectangle, which may or may not be the player, as well as a glitchy sprite with two frames whose purpose is unknown. There is an orange/yellow bar on the left side of the screen.
https://tcrf.net/Proto:Sonic_the_Hedgehog_(Genesis)#Unused_Objects
Present in the available prototype are objects ID 02 and 03, both of which line up with the room seen in the video. These objects date back to the game's earliest development stages. Their coordinates are fixed, and what function they were intended to serve is unknown. Both objects share the same sprite mappings and tile ID base, and have similar code. Object 02 has a simple timer built into it to alternate between sprites every 16 frames. They also expect tile information from VRAM at 0x9E00, which is the exact same location that the unused debug HUD digits are loaded. They do not interact with the player object in any way, and likely never served a purpose in actual gameplay.

Sparky is girl Tails. Extra pussy like him.
>>530034653What job did you apply for this week? You just spend all day online posting reaction images of you speaking through an ugly hedgehog for 5 year olds. You never grew up you NEET
>>530034751I'm not a girl.
>>530034843well you aren't a man either, no matter how many pretentious hedgehog quotes you have on your computer.
>>530034610>Sonic having everything go his way 100% of the time because he's just a great guy is not.But that's what Sonic is about. You know Black Knight, the game people think is the best written one of the franchise? The same game where Sonic bends an entire fairy tale to its knees and he's right about literally everything and convinces all the antagonists about his point of view?
I mean do you guys even LIKE Sonic?
>>530034964I can't tell whether you're seething at me, or seething at Sonic but using me to project that onto.
Reminder that Black Knight is the game where Sonic fails the trolley problem because he is not capable of rational thinking, and that's somehow portrayed as a good thing.
>>530034994>I mean do you guys even LIKE Sonic?Does anyone?
>>530035235Yeah! ME!
Sonic is good! Great!! Awesome!!! OUTSTANDING!!!!
AMAZING!!!
Post another Sonic 1 fun fact, slut.
>>530034994I don't value the opinions of those "people" highly. It's more of the same windshit/paragonshit wank, where sonic does something incredibly mundane that everyone around him agrees with and applauds him for and everyone else in the series would do also if in the same position and they act like he's a deep badboy who plays by his own rules for doing it. Like when he saves that crying girl from the dragon and pragonfags used to wank that as "Sonic is an anarchist who doesn't care about chivalry and only plays by his own rules!" as if Cream the Rabbit wouldn't do the same also

You just don't understand, man. Sonic is, like, the coolest thing ever!
The coolest thing alive!
He's just so cool, man.
Cool, cool, cool!
Cooler than Ice Cap Zone!
Cooler than Cool Edge!
Ice-Cold!
A cool breeze on a hot summer day that feels as icy as winter in the north pole! Because he's so cool, he is literally Santa Claus born on Christmas Island because he's just that cool!
>>530035216Who cares, nerd? Learn to have some fun.
>>530035584>It's more of the same windshitStopped reading there
>>530035639Blaze is so forced in there
Sonic only goes his own way, so long as that way is Reddit and FEMA and Apple approved and doesn't violate any standards and practices and isn't problematic and noone is allowed to think it's wrong.
>>530035716Yeah by Sonic but she's kinda into it
You know what's cool? Struggle is cool.
Strugglers are the coolest of the coolest.
They toil and they suffer for the sake of a dream, often meant for others to enjoy.
Sonic doesn't toil and doesn't suffer, and he does it all for his own enjoyment.
Sonic is not a struggler; therefore, he is not cool. Knuckles on the other hand...
>>530035639Two main badasses...and the hooker they bought the night before
>>530035810Don't talk about Sonic like that...
>>530035535I'll repost one from the other day.
https://forums.sonicretro.org/threads/the-supreme-topic-of-other-knowledge.8815/page-540#post-1098538
At offset 0x40C0 in Revision 0 of Sonic 1 (In Revision 1, it'd be offset 0x40C2, and in the prototype we currently have, offset 0x311C), there's a set of demo input data that appears to be unreferenced in the code.
A recording of the demo data from the prototype can be seen here:
https://youtu.be/S8_IAfQbUu0
The poster also uploaded a recording:
https://youtu.be/J2M04N15JZc
The demo inputs seem to consist of a series of walking to the right and stopping periodically, with a single jump partway through, and then it ends with Sonic running at full speed to the right.
If this data is unused, what's interesting about this is that it seems to line up with what is known about the Tokyo Toy Show demo.
Most of the screenshots of the demo feature Sonic walking (moving at a slower speed than would trigger the running animation), with Sonic only seen running in the screenshots near the presumed end of the demo.
>We know that Sonic stopped before an airborne/mid-jump enemy, and then ran underneath it.>We also know that Sonic jumped, dodging another enemy that was on the ground.This data also made its way into Sonic 2 and the 1103 prototype of Sonic 3. The fact that this unreferenced demo input data lines up so neatly with the screenshots highly suggests that this demo is a leftover from the Tokyo Toy Show demo.

sonic invented safe edgy
>>530036073Why is she in her Winter Olympics outfit?
>>530035809"Struggle" itself isn't cool.
What's cool is being unstoppable.
To do the impossible, see the invisible. Touch the untouchable, break the unbreakable.
To be put in the most difficult situations that should completely destroy you, yet you persevere. Undefeatable, you break through it all and find your flame. And let the whole world know, with a smile, "I'm here", and they instantly know that everything'll be alright.
That's what makes it cool. The struggle itself is never the highlight, it's the unyielding willpower, the DETERMINATION, in the face of insurmountable odds that makes it cool. No matter how many times you get knocked down, can you get back up and keep going?
>>530036198No, I hate the pedofaggot avatarfag spammer, and I hate that posting Fi automatically associates her with his kind now.

>To be put in the most difficult situations that should completely destroy you, yet you persevereSo a struggler like Knuckles, and not Sonic?

>>530036329Good morning, Ian.
>>530036151That's not nice.
>>530036181>Knuckles goes treasure hunting and finds cool treasure. Oh no! It's the Babylon Rogues! Quick Knuckles, stop them from stealing your treasure!
>>530036329Sonic is never knocked down because that wouldn't wank off the shitty mascot.
Even when he is he has to be ambushed or sandbagging, then next time he goes "I wasn't really trying, now I am" and has to will past nothing because he's just a vapid powerfantasy
Why was he the only one that got blown away by Sonic's crash landing?
>>530036181Blaze is so pretty
>>530036456>Knuckles isn't unstoppableKnuckles is immovable. It's Sonic who is unstoppable.

>>530036648Because he only weighs 12 lbs.
>>530036648The hands on the 3D models are monstrously large.
>>530036648Why did Tails and Knuckles flop on their faces in 06 and Sonic did the cool superhero landing when Tails can fly and Knuckles can glide?
The answer is everyone else looks weak so the mascot can look good.
>>530036656all you do is reference gurren lagann and mha because as a neet manbaby you can't read actual books.
>>530036420So this is why he has serious short-term memory loss.

>>530036656Sparky, I'm gonna be honest; I like your analyses and interpretations of the characters but I do think you have an overly-dialectical understanding of the franchise. You're too beholden to normative definitions.
>>530036515The point is being able to get back up no matter how many times you're knocked down. To be hit with a giant laser beam of magic from an absolute god with infinite power, yet you refuse to die and still stand there in his face with just 0.000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000001% of HP like it's nothing.
No matter what circumstance Sonic is in, he makes it look like a cakewalk because he never loses his cool. But that smirk on his face masks all of the unyielding willpower he has inside, to do what he's gotta do no matter what the world says about it or what's standing in his way.

>>530037040>but I do think you have an overly-dialectical understanding of the franchise. You're too beholden to normative definitions.I always focus primarily on the true/original/definitive version of the concepts. What it's "meant to be".
I judge everything beyond that according to that standard.
>>530037050That's Undertale that does that as a game. Sonic doesn't do that because Sonic suffers no hardship or criticism ever, he's just born handed superpowers and chaos emeralds that are betterer than the bad guys' powers. He never worked or grinded to achieve anything.
The world never disagrees with him, the other characters don't stand in his way, and everyone is his asskisser.
He has no willpower and never does, he's a spoiled self-insert character for spoiled suburban manchildren like YOU who get everything handed to them in life, and want MORE handed to them.
Even the villains like Sage and Eggman are now required to sing Sonic's praises at all times in Frontiers. When Sonic gives a pretentious easily debunkable speech a 3rd grader would think the villains like Merlina and Surge must shut up and accept that Sonic is right and never criticise it, even if they were previously very invested in their arguments.
Sonic's fragile as fuck as a character and cannot handle disagreement, criticism or insult. The entire verse has been sanded down to a soft babyproof hugbox to always tell him he's right and tell him how cool he is, because he'd shatter if he were ever insulted.

>>530037571Sally will never get this much love from Sonic and Sonic Team
>>530038014Sonic literally married and fucked Sally
>>530038119In a deader than dead potential timeline.
>>530035216He doesn't seem to mind
>>530034889Is Blaze a lolicon?
>>530037324>That's Undertale that does that as a game.Undertale centers around "Determination" specifically as a major theme for you as the player and a human child that's fallen in a world of monsters out to kill them. But Sonic is not Frisk, Chara, Kris or YOU.
Deku and Simon are Tails, All Might and Kamina are Sonic.
Deku and Simon are the ones directly comparable to the human in Undertale breaking through insurmountable odds through sheer force of will, all while starting out as just a regular human child. But Sonic isn't a "regular human", he is the insurmountable idea itself. A larger than life conceptual ideal, a "paragon", a living symbol incarnate.
But what that then means is that "Sonic" is the ideal standard that the "regular human" strives to emulate. If Spider-Man is knocked down, he'll always get back up. But what pushes him to do so is that idea of someone like Sonic, who embodies that "never give up" feeling. MHA is the story about Deku becoming the greatest hero in the world, but it's All Might who serves as that image of a hero that Deku is emulating. The story would not work without that "symbol" existing as the standard he's aiming for, and then has to surpass.
That "symbol" is what Sonic, as a character, is. A lot of these complains you guys have right now, is criticizing Sonic for being that symbol and framing it like he's never had to struggle or work hard ever. Which is simply not true. But the point always is that no matter what situation Sonic is in, he's always able to break through and succeed because he's "just that cool". That doesn't mean he's not still struggling to get there, he just has the right mindset to overcome it and keep his cool, to make it seem like no problem even if it really was.
It's meant to be inspiring. Meaning, it's meant to serve as an example. If you're in a tough situation, "Sonic" represents what you'd push yourself to be like to get through it. Whatever it may be.
>>530035604Is he cooler than Diamond Dust Zone?
>>530037594Sage wanking Sonic off every single line in Frontiers was nauseating. Sonic's all she can fucking talk about.
And she keeps wanking him off for doing normal things "M-Masaka??? You don't stop running even in front of giant enemies. What drives your calculation-deceiving power? What drives you to keep running? You are the most unique specimen in all the world, why do you never stop despite all the hardships of Babylon" like bitch he's naruto running in a field to spindash the animals free EVERY CHARACTER DOES THAT

Why IDW wouldn't let any game characters have some cool arcs instead of focusing on the ocs and emotional points?
>>530034735>Present in the available prototype are objects ID 02 and 03, both of which line up with the room seen in the video. These objects date back to the game's earliest development stages. Their coordinates are fixed, and what function they were intended to serve is unknown. Both objects share the same sprite mappings and tile ID base, and have similar code. Object 02 has a simple timer built into it to alternate between sprites every 16 frames. They also expect tile information from VRAM at 0x9E00, which is the exact same location that the unused debug HUD digits are loaded. They do not interact with the player object in any way, and likely never served a purpose in actual gameplay.Some kind of animated environmental decoration like the flowers?

>>530037050Have him get blasted with the infinity canon WHILE ALSO getting emotionally and psychologically annihilated due to the fact that the reason he's getting blasted is because he's doing something wrong. Then, when he's at 0.00000000000001% HP, have him realize the flaw in his nature and stand above all others by facing the one challenge that's greater than all: Change.
To realize his shortcomings, shortcomings not related to some superficial character flaws, but entrenched deep within his psyche. Horrid monuments built from cement in his mind, that have had years and years to harden. THOSE are strong. Stronger than any giant Egg mech, stronger than any mystical gem, stronger than any ancient deity, they put your giant laser beam to shame.
"I'm not wrong, right?" He'll ask. "I'm not a bad person!" He'll scream. "I-I just want to help everyone! I didn't do anything wrong!", he'll tell himself. Because the monument is too great, too overwhelming. And then, he'll say "Oh... It IS my fault..." and his whole world will crumble. All this time, the path he has been walking on has led to this dead end.
How can he beat it? It's all he's ever known, it's his nature, it's who he is. It's Sonic. And then, at his lowest low, at his deepest darkness, he'll find it: Hope. From someone else, or from within himself. Hope that, even if this path has led to a dead end, he can choose another one, prove that he is not simply a mere product of his circumstances, but an agent of change to both himself and others.
And then, after each time he tears those monuments down, he will find the answer, he will find the way to deal with the threat in the real world, because that's a piece of cake now.
THAT... is cool.
You know men have fought wars throughout all history, right? People would rather die and kill than change, and Sonic is still at that level? Pathetic.
>>530038662Superman is a Gary Stu who also embraces his humanity through Clark Kent. Sonic is 100% Gary Stu.
>>530038662Superman's still cool when he's not being a gary stu. I mean he's an alien who shoots laser beams and flies and has freeze breath, that's cool.
Sonic's never cool unless it's some pretentious self-inserter ruining the other characters to make them sonic's wankers.
>>530038662What makes Sonic "unrelatable" ties back to the fact that what he symbolizes is an unattainable idea of "coolness" crossed with "freedom". This means he is detached from all worldly concerns to an extreme degree that most regular people can't even fathom, and he's so "cool" that many things in life simply wouldn't faze him anyway.
He's the coolest guy you've ever known, and he's completely free, unbound, untethered, unchained, nothing can contain or control him. He is the ideal person living the ideal life, inherently.
Superman has "Clark Kent" where he's a humble, awkward guy with glasses modeled after the Jewish immigrants who created him, ALONGSIDE being the invincible, unbeatable paragon of superheroism. Superman has a double-life as a regular guy who grew up on a farm, to the point that being "Superman" could be seen as a mask he has to play up, an ideal he himself also pushes himself to maintain, to a degree.
Sonic has no "Clark Kent". Nicky in the manga was a completely separate consciousness that the spirit of Sonic existed separately from. Sonic is like the idea of Superman completely divorced from Clark Kent.

But until they do move on, they will continue hounding people who still do feel passion.

>>530038923Sonic embodies the ideals and themes of the series' narrative. Freedom, and all that stuff, is what the franchise wants to say are the good, positive messages you should aim for. So at a certain point, these kinds of arguments seem to be less about critiquing Sonic as a character, and more about critiquing the story itself Sonic is in, since the two are inextricably linked.
What you seem to want to do, is put Sonic in a story where the themes and ideals are the antithesis of him, which naturally goes against the heart and soul of the franchise itself. But really, what the series should actually do, in my opinion, is construct stories around the counter-arguments against Sonic, to test those ideals and themes, and ultimately show how that message of Freedom and stuff still wins out in the end in spite of all the trials and tribulations it's been through after being dismantled and broken down by the anti-thesis counter argument stuff.
If Sonic is meant to be "the coolest guy ever" and embody the themes/ideals of the narrative, then the narrative should center around an actual conflict against that theme. Like, if the main character's greatest strength is determination, then their greatest obstacle is the feeling of pointlessness, of giving up. Thus, the story would be the protagonist in a situation where there's no way of getting past this obstacle, but the hero's determination is so strong, they're able to break right through that wall.
Sonic just needs more stories like that. But it's a bit difficult when his main antagonist, Eggman, is basically treated like Wile E. Coyote rather than the tyrannical dictator he wants to be.

Amy x Tails is a basic regular ship in any other series.
a self-insert underdog figure representing "you" with the idealized girlfriend figure you wish you had that'd be your very best friend and love you forever.
Like Deku and Ochaco.
But what this actually means is that the guy is a regular human person but the girl is a manic pixie dream girl. The girl is effectively a cartoon abstraction of an "ideal" girlfriend, i.e. a Minnie Mouse. Like any Anime Waifu inherently is at their core, from a "love interest" perspective. Just as Sonic is the ideal guy, Amy is the ideal girl. Which is why Amy is "Girl Sonic", this is what that archetype is inherently, which is why in a world where Sonic is our lead guy, Amy is simply his love interest, when in any other series, she would've been Tails' love interest.
Case in point: The manga, where Amy is the girlfriend of Nicky, who is basically a Tails type of character.
Cosmo in Sonic X is also the exact same height as Amy, and Zooey in Sonic Boom is also around that same height. Taller than Tails. This just further emphasizes that the idea of 'Amy Rose' herself is basically the template for what a love interest for Tails would look like. For a self-insert underdog character like Tails, what is likely the least common is for the love interest to just be his own female counterpart (i.e. Cream), because the inherent concept generally goes "pathetic loser getting with the most beautiful girl in the world" in some form. Of course, there's definitely exceptions to that.

>>530048028I still don't trust them to write or voice Silver. Bryce plays him like a braindead dweeb and Ian writes him like a polite mental retard. Fans and SoJ alike need to demand better Silver not just more Silver.

>>530027669Why is America-incarnate beating the shit out of Sonic?
POV: You disappointed Fiona, she's unimpressed and probably considers you a faggot.
>>530049170This is getting boring. I don't want your Archie crap about Silver anymore I want to talk about JPver.
>>530039434Anon the issue isnโt your doing too much or are too passionate, itโs that you are an asshole whole doing so.
>>530049183This is complete headcanon. His cuffs dont do shit
>>530049170Why the kid having a bigger dick then the more haired Italian guy?
>>530050334I thought we established Silver was arabic or are those basically the same anyway
>>530038923>>530039892I think your both arguing semantics truth be told, your acting like change and freedom are two completely opposite forces when in truth theyโre way more similar, I donโt see why Sonicโs change can be gradual or incremental while keeping his core character intact. He can still embody freedom and such but also have him question himself from time to time before pushing through. Youโre acting like it has to be one or the other, when in truth freedom in of itself can mean many different things to many different people.
>>530049835These types of people are based and i'm tired of pretending they're not.
>>530050478You should go outside more.
>>530050515It's focking boiling
>>530050478Theyโre not.
>>530047257Both tenrecs are built off of a creator misunderstanding a character.
Ian wrote his misunderstood version of Sonic into canon and used that to build Surge who reflects him, so Surge suffers the same way that Prime Shadow did where in theory they are good but are rivalling a bad Sonic
Gold is built off of Evan not fully understanding Silver so her story has glimpses of being an interesting contrast to Silver in the grand scheme but it's still not perfect
>>530050476Sir, I literally agree with everything you just said.
Sparky's the one who thinks Sonic can never change cause he's the ideal ultimate lifeform, don't reply to me.
>>530047831Yeah, in schizo /sthg/ canon.
>>530050694I mean, even ideals get chipped and tested. But they still stay because ideas are bullet proof.
>>530047257>>530050690Mary the Tenrec. She tries to "cheer up" Shadow because he's depressed about Maria and she reminds him of Maria.
>>530050941Yeah, I agree there's always gonna be some idiot who wants communism to come back. Doesn't mean they're right.
>>530051450>Mary the Tenrec.Are these instructions
>>530050806Eggman prompted this.
>>529926516>Classickek is a Johto glazer
>>530048076Steel, my beloved.
>>530050690Would the Tenrec be a response to Vegedow or how the fandom softens Shadow like Archiedow?
>>530051450Mary isn't a good name but this is really funny because "reminds him of Maria" is the one of the most overused tropes in Shadow fandom so it fits
>>530052196Depends on her creator. Ian misunderstood Sonic and Evan misunderstands Silver. Maybe some anti-miracle (tragedy?) will occur where Daniel Barnes misunderstoods Shadow and the tenrec will be based around Shadow's actions in Metal Virus and CRABB
>>530052519a tenrec that beats Shadow up, and he keeps coming out the hospital pathetically trying to fight her because "cowards run I win" only to have his skull broken again
>>530052610Vegeta is one component of his DNA. Now that he's met Batman I might replace him witn Spawn
>>530052610Same forehead, same personality
>>530052610Not originally, but he's slowly been morphed into that.
Shadow's true personality is a defeated nihilist who is hesitant to show his under laying compassion and hope.
He never goes, "UGH, I MUST DEFEAT THIS HEDGEHOG FOR MY PRIDE" In SA2, he doesn't even seem to care about fighting Sonic, only that he has to do it. More than anything, he seems to appreciate Sonic's abilities. He lays it out completely that everything he's doing is to fulfill a purpose.
In SA2, he doesn't even seem to act that mad at all, after getting his revenge on GUN, he seems pretty lethargic rather than ambitious. Like that's all he wanted and everything else to finish the goal Gerald gave him.
I don't see one, "hmph" generic Vegeta bullshit when Amy goes to talk to him.
I feel like the reason a lot of writing for franchises that no longer have the original creators involved seems so lazy is that everything is copy and pasted from tropes. Like writing is pretty much automated.
I will not care when these people are replaced by ai because they already write like it.
Shadow with GT Vegeta's personality, and not the regressed "Z" one seen in Super and Daima, would be a good fit for Shadow
Gold was an exaggeration of Uwuver. Seeing how she acts and reading her description, she's a wet blanket.
Surge is an exaggeration of Sonic. She has an extremely aggressive and hotheaded attitude to the point she's just seething half the time.
Shadow's Tenrec would probably be an exaggeration of Shadow's aloofness and being serious. Like something in between Silver's Tenrec being too nice and Sonic's Tenrec being too mean. Shadow's would be... boring. A completely flat character. Monotone and detached.
>>530052610but he sure jobs like him
>>530053650>Surge is an exaggeration of Sonic. She has an extremely aggressive and hotheaded attitudeSonic is cool and aloof. Amy is the one whose hotheaded and aggressive (aggressively loving/happy when written well), while Sonic is laidback and chill like he's always on vacation and is rarely ever emotional.
Calling Surge an exaggeration of Sonic through her hotheadedness makes no sense, when that hotheaded attitude is a direct contrast to Sonic in the same way that Amy is, but replace "happy :)" with "angry >:("
>>530053650Wait... what happened?
When did we start deciding every Hedgehog gets their own personalized tenrec?
Like, Gold and Surge belong to Silver and Sonic?
When did this happen?
>>530053391Sega is already using AI in concept art aren't they? Whose to say its not already writing their scripts.
>>530053391You kind of ignore a core part of his dynamic with Sonic. Shadow calls himself the Ultimate Lifeform but Sonic can match him exactly. Sonic makes Shadow redundant and challenges his existence personally. Sonic bothers Shadow in a way nobody else can, and it's not always intentional.
>>530054075Shadow doesn't care about that in SA2, he genuinely seems curious rather than bothered.
>>530053930Sonic is supposed to have a level of attitude that has often been misinterpreted to make him aggressive or just mean. He's also been described as short-tempered by the japanese in his profiles.
Shadow's Tenrec would also be red since Surge and Gold match their counterparts' eye-color.
>>530054173Yeah Shadow's only game isn't the one where he goes from Gerald's slave to Maria's slave I'm talking about the whole series
>>530054386Surge doesnt match Sonic's eye color retard
>>530054390I'm talking about the actual character, not the spin offs.
>>530054173>You're comparing yourself to me? Hah, you're not even good enough to be my fake!>Darn, not bad for an impostor.>So there's more to you than just looking like me.>What are you, anyway?>I guess he was just a normal hedgehog after all.>Sonic, I think I figured out what the Ultimate Lifeform is. It's you!You're wrong as hell.
>>530053993Government mandates tenrecs for all hedgehog men.
>>530054232Japanese people and society is too polite so the second you show some actual spine people say you have an attitude. That concept doesn't translate to America where standing up for yourself is the default. A Japanese delinquint would get mogged in America it's not even funny. I think a Yakuza would get mogged by a Mobster too
>>530053993When Surge was created to be exact
>>530054460Retard, Sonic's eyes are green, so Surge is a shade of green. Silver's eyes are gold, so Gold (lol) is a shade of gold.
>>530054814I apologize I am the retard you are correcf
>>530054686Silver is supposed to be "rude"
The west thought he was some sissy
>>5300545831. a normal comeback to someone calling you a faker
2. sonic called him a faker first
3.&4. yeah, he's genuinely curious, that's not anger or competitiveness, he's asking about Sonic abilities. Dude just manifested chaos control from nothing.
5. Yeah?
6. Shadow realizing the reason for Sonic's potential, I don't really understand how 5 and 6 contradict me. I think you're posting random examples hoping I find meaning you don't.

>>530057487I just have this thing stuck in my head telling me that before drawing stylized i must draw good. I shall probably abandon it because it gets too boring, although i love drawing women's curves.
Silver slander comes from these parties.
Classicfags who hate him along with anything Modern.
People who judge his entire character on the failure of 06.
Shadowfags who hate him for being a cheap knockoff of Shadow.
Sonicfags who found Silver beating up Sonic in 06 disrespectful and was just done to shill his debut.
Blazefags who despise that concept of Blaze being chained to him.
People who just plain don't like him.
His own fans making him an infantile faggot and making him look worse to the rest of the fandom and giving more ammo to those above.
He has so many detractors at so many angles.
>>530057973>I just have this thing stuck in my head telling me that before drawing stylized i must draw goodMakes sense. I just went straight towards stylization because it's what I always wanted to draw
>>530057989Compare the setup of characters like Shadow or Blaze to Silver's setup, background, buildup and climax.
His character background is lame as fuck.
>>530055940And Amy wishes she had the "wow" factor of more humanoid girls.
What is more popular
Rails
Shadouge
Knuxouge
>>530058740Into the chair, "bestie".
>>530057989Silver to me is a very uninspired character that very clearly tries to repeat the success of Shadow without any of the proper buildup Shadow had. His powers are also generic super hero powers and not something that was thought with gameplay in mind. He also feels very detached from everything, not having a clear dynamic with anyone and being stuck to this apocalyptic future that severely limits his usage. He also just wasn't a necessary addition. SA2 was all about the two way parallel between good and evil and adding a third element feels tacked in
>>530057989>His own fans making him an infantile faggot and making him look worse to the rest of the fandom and giving more ammo to those aboveThis was made by someone with silver pfp
>>530059340But Alota has Blaze
>>530058459>His character background is lame as fuck.His character background of fighting in hell like doom Slayer but that hell is the future if the world is the best, his climax is lame as fuck.
Does every planet have their own Gaia/Dark Gaia or do you think Sonic's world is special? Planet Wisp has Mother Wisp but I don't know that that's the same thing.
>>530057989>His own fans making him an infantile faggot and making him look worse to the rest of the fandom and giving more ammo to those above.You would think this was made by silverhater but no this was written by a genuine silverfag
>>530057989Yeah so basically 06 failure printed him as a failure itself. crazy how Mephiles, Elise and Shadow story elements are not getting the same treatment

>>530059690>genuineGENUINE? EVAN?
>>530057989>Shadowfags who hate him for being a cheap knockoff of Shadow.Silver is literally the least comparable to Shadow, in front of Sonic, Metal, Knuckles, Espio, Blaze and Jet.

>>530057989>cheap knockoff of ShadowHe literally is. They made him into a hedgehog renamed him to Silver to fit alongside Sonic and Shadow on a game shelf. Maekawa is obsessed with Shadow and Maria and tried to set up Blaze as Silver's Maria.
>>530058459>>530059160Silver was designed around his relationship to Blaze but none of Maekawa's Intentโข made it into the canon and now he's completely dysfunctional and lacks a foundation.

>>530061310>Silver depends on an ooc Blaze to even remotely workSad
>>530061310>into a hedgehogThat's like the only thing related to Shadow
Be reasonable if that was the case Blaze and many others would get the same treatment but it all falls down to Silver debut game failing and Shadowfags like to act like faggots and beat down a dead horse to feel cool and liked
>>530059667I presume the "Gaia" thing is an Earth exclusive (Gaia=Earth). TailsTube sort of remedies Unleashed with Frontiers, but it's a rather band-aid solution. Did Light Gaia fight Dark Gaia before the Chaos Emeralds came to Earth and the Gaia Temples were constructed, and if so, how?
Can the Planet Eggs coexist in the Gaia lore?
>>530060907I think it's Shadow and Sonic?
>>530061471Wrong, look at archie, IDW and Forces, he functions less like a dweeb away from her.
>>530057989Silver is the most longhoused character in this franchise..
>>530060454I like this artist. Masculine straight and confident Silver is something to be preserved in times of great homosexualization of Sonic the Hedgehog franchise
>>530061894Can't really see Sonic. Shadow having messed up Sonic Boom quills makes me think its someone else.
>>530061914There's a story here.
I'm not smart enough to figure it out.
>>530061690Doesn't Dark Gaia and Light Gaia feed on the negative and positive energy emanated by living creatures on the surface until they get mature enough to emerge from the Earth's core? Maybe the Ancients arrived before humans and Islanders roamed the Earth (we know they were around way before the Echidnas which are the oldest civilization we know of)

>>530060759I don't understand Blaze fans. They act like Blaze is the only character that's been mistreated for years when it's pretty much 97% of the main cast due to people disliking "Sonic's shitty friends" since SA1. It took until literally last year for Shadow to escape this fate and it was only due to the Sonic 3 movie, not Shadow Generations.
Silver being this boogeyman that Blaze fans act like it's 100% his fault for Blaze's irrelevancy is somewhat hilarious and shows how the fans of the purple cat have low IQs at best.
>>530060759Cope. Silver and Blaze is a narrative black hole for Blaze.
>>530062042it's some exe oc
>>530062527>It took until literally last year for Shadow to escape this fate and it was only due to the Sonic 3 movie, not Shadow Generations.No Shadow was always liked amongst Sonic's actual target demographic, and most people liked him in his debut, most of the Shadow hate starred when he came back in Heroes/Battle and especially with Shadow 05 onwards and it was mainly caused by oldfags and critics
>>530062559>A child talks about how she loves Blaze and wants her to appear in more stuff alongside with Silver>The adult who's answering her question had the urge to throw in a snarky line about Silver to fulfill their Sonaze mindset What the fuck

>>530062991Remember when Archie got all passive aggressive to a fanmail that said they wanted to see more Shadow and not Sally?
Man, the amount of dramafaggotry has gone down by a LOT since Potto lost his Bumblekast grift. It's like without him feeding people's autism, less autism happens.
Also, Amy being a cuck is better than her being turned into a stronk independance girlboss lesbian. At least she's still straight.
>>530063279I remember when Fleetway said 'stick with us for the real story' when a fan innocently asked what the deal was with all the continuities during their Sonic Adventure adaptation, then they promptly died.
>>530062527It is Silver's fault. Her relationship with Silver has monopolized her entire character. She's supposed to be Sonic's rival on the level with Shadow and Silver, but she's been relegated to Silver's waifu.
>>530062991>Blaze being a protagonist, the role she was designed for, is the "Sonaze mindset"You are so fucking mindbroken, dude.
>>530063131I want to see Big fishing from the side of a gondala as Elise takes him and Froggy on a scenic boat ride down one of Soleanna's canals.
>>530062982>No Shadow was always liked amongst Sonic's actual target demographic, and most people liked him in his debutThis is irrelevant. By the time the 2010s happened, the nearly the entire modern cast was despised and Shadow was seen as a pure example on how to not a doppelganger rival. It took until the Sonic 3 movie to fix Shadow's reception in the main public eyes.

Blaze is NEGA Sonic. Meaning, the POLAR OPPOSITE of Sonic.
Amy loves SONIC, because he is SONIC, and SHE is GIRL SONIC.
So, why in the world, would Amy love Blaze "because she's alt-Sonic" when everything that defines who Blaze IS is the OPPOSITE of what makes Sonic "Sonic"!? The logic makes no sense, here. Blaze is not simply "another Sonic", she is the direct polar opposite of the very concept of "Sonic".

>>530065454>writers don't know what to do with herIt's so easy. Just do what they did in Rush Adventure: introduce a new Sol counterpart character and explore their relationship with Blaze.
>relationshp with Amy is the same as Silverlol no. Her dynamic with Amy is a typical introvert/ extrovert pairing. With Silver she's perfectly composed to be his mommygf
>>530066559That's exactly it. She rejects emotional intimacy and trust, and this is alluring to Sonic, he chases after her, and then they work together in the climax. That's the whole point of Rush and her cover story.
>>530067659I mean it was pretty dark to begin with depending on lighting, and then add on artistic license and there you go. But I agree in modern depictions she's much lighter.

Object IDs 02 and 03 both have fixed positions and just use whatever was loaded into VRAM (given these were EXTREMELY early in the game's development, there likely wasn't any graphics to begin with). Whatever functionality they served wasnโt tied to gameplay. Decorative objects are still tied to gameplay.
>>530068092I think the reading a lot of people do about Sonic/Surge comes from how he acts towards Blaze.
A rival character being closed off while still trying to navigate a mutual partnership would be absolutely alluring to this interpretation of Sonic who would crave banter and antagonism.
>>530067791>lol no. Her dynamic with Amy is a typical introvert/ extrovert pairing. With Silver she's perfectly composed to be his mommygfI'm talking about how you fags disgust from Silver stems from shipfaggotry, you complain that with Silver she's less important ,boring, doesn't mention her world and is not cool at all, yet that is her exact relationship with a lot of characters, just admit you just got bored with her being next to Silver and that's it, no need for random projections.
blobs are cringe
jpfags should kill themselves for thinking this is the superior way

>>530068423I just now realized that Amy isn't present on the SA2B cover because she got demoted from 1P story compared with SA1.
>>530067659It's black women self inserting themselves
>>530068596The unstranslated shadow globe said
>"Im inmortal, so age doesn't mean anything maria!"Kek the other text on the right said do not repost, only for Twitter.
This new render looks like she stepped right out of a console game. It's beautiful
>>530069907Where's the magma lebowski?
>>530069563I don't think they were trying bellitle her, is more about the game theme using counterparts, but amy doesn't really have one.
>main character: sonic/shadow >treasure hunters: rouge/knuckles>geniuses or engineers: tails/eggmanTo be fair, amy had little time to shine on that game, but she was the actual key character in making shadow reconsidering saving earth by remebering him how much maria loved earth.
>>530068596>Big Sis>Mother>Teacher>Best Friend>WaifuI acknowledge Shadaria as the ideal ship and it's not even my favorite one
>>530069832I know Sonic is basically buried and unknown in Japan, but how's the franchise doing in Worst Korea? Is there any hope there?
>>530070405Amy's counterpart was, from my perspective, Maria.
The Hero side had Amy the whole time, while the Dark side is defined by the lack of that kind of presence.

>Noticing how unusual it was that Blaze suddenly spoke to him, Sonic turned to look at her, so she turned away and added.>โEven if itโs you, I canโt do that all the time, you know.โ>The roots of Blazeโs heart hadnโt changedโฆ Sonic welcomed her noble earnestness that wouldnโt let her butter up to people easily, with even more joy.They're LITERALLY (metaphorically) magnetically attracted to each other and I'm tired of explaining this.
>>530068294She fits into the main cast just fine. You could replace Silver with Blaze in Rivals with zero changes.
>>530068959>doesn't mention her worldShe does when she's not with Silver.
>boring>not cool at allShe's cool when she's not with Silver.
>less importantShe's less important when she's with Silver because she's just his emotional support.
>exact relationship with a lot of charactersShe has a very different relationship with every character. She even has a different relationship with Marine and Gardon despite both being part of the empire proper.
Literally none of these problems are present when she's with other characters. She sucks because of Silver yet you're using this as proof she sucks generally.
>your disgust with SilverMy disgust with Silver stems from the fact that he's an industry plant, he's a ripoff of Trunks, he's a basic bitch anime protagonist devoid of any unique charm, they had to half-assedly retcon Eggman Nega as his nemesis despite having nothing to do with his core concept, and Maeakwa is a hack with no range as a writer.
>>530070141It's pretty high quality for mobile slop. I wonder if they will reuse and tweak it for crossworlds.
>>530069563She's on the 10th Anniversary edition.

>>530069749This one still makes me laugh.
>>530070564What are you talking about? Sonic is really popular in korea, even comparing it with japan.
In fact is the asian country who makes more sonic art.
>>530070564You get it. Every role at once.
More Shadria understanders and appreciators are always welcome.
>>530068838I think it works like this.
Blaze's feelings towards Silver
> Straightfoward> Simple> She doesn't hides them (therefore she acts more relaxed)> No tension in their relationshipBlaze's feelings towards Sonic
> Conflicting> Complex> She hides them (which causes her to become flustered)> It creates tension in their relationship
Whisper > WereAmy > Bunnie > Marine > Blaze > all of the rest
>>530071291Sounds like Blaze is in love with Sonic.
>>530070940> for crossworldsAnon...
>>530071021Cool.
>>530071041>What are you talking about? Sonic is really popular in korea, even comparing it with japan.>In fact is the asian country who makes more sonic art.That's good, I knew that S.Korea generated a disproportionate amount of fanart but I wasn't sure how that actually translated into general audience popularity or if it was a small niche subset of passionate fans.
>>530070654>>530071040That's a really cute way to look at it, i aprove it, but amy lack of appearance on that game makes it really difficult to really believe it.
>>530070564Because sega donโt post up to date game sales, I suppose best way to judge is the movie sales. Theyโre more popular in South Korea than Japan, but not by a lot, less popular than Singapore, most countries in Asia Pacific sold the same (poorly). Every market in America and Latin America outsold by far.
Overall does not seem to be popular
>>530071041Korean artists draw everything, that doesnโt make it popular irl
>>530071454Don't give me the that. The leaks we got didn't confirm or deny anything outright.
>>530071995Why on earth would someone draw something they didn't like? Specially talking about masses?
Is not about trends there either, korea was always drawing sonic, even before he started to be popular thanks to the movies.
>>530072432how is that nobody complained when ian made yet another reference
>>530072432Barry is so much cuter than that fat dog holy shit.
>>530072408yes we know, you saw some gay yaoi of scourge from archie in korean.
That doesn't make it a popular IP among the population, that just means you got a couple of their fetishists drawing fetishes.
>>530072547He's done it so many times by now that people are burnt out complaining
SEGA Dreamcast Katana prototypes.
>>530072408no "masses" of koreans are drawing archieshit gay porn lmao
>owning a cat but at the same time shes also your girl
purrfect
>>530072796Oh man, i thought you were serious for a moment, ok i agree with you.
Amy and Maria are nothing alike
>>530072547People don't care if he does visual references. It's when he inserts shit into the dialogue, like song lyrics, or forced callbacks, that they get upset.
>>530071062She made a doujin? Wow, i wish i could read it.
>>530072408but the movies flopped hard in korea, is the point. The movies are popular in america, not in asia.
>>530073095they are both mentally retarded
>>530061914warning: do not open until ark collision
>>530072432Now people complain about character making appearances?
>>530073095They're both female
Considering the usual populations of a military research center, Amy might have been the second female Shadow had any meaningful interaction with
As far as he's concerned they're practically identical
>>530073574Shadow met Rouge before Amy kid
>>530073290There are only previews right now. They're gonna be selling a bunch of Shadria fan-made products at a booth in China soon.
>>530073574Deboonked.
>>530073421Maria is canonically very intelligent.
>>530073782I hope someone scan it, that artist is really good, it makes really romantic shadria art.
Maria is canonically a virgin
>>530074247PSME says that Maria would be obsessed with losing her virginity with the first male she meets to spite Gerald for locking her up, those GUN scientists ran a train on her
>>530074083Too bad about the idea being debunked, it sounded really nice.
But i guess i get it, maria and amy weren't really similar, apart from being sweet girls, unlike, sonic/shadow, knuckles rouge and eggman/tails.
>>530074247We need a doujin where she asks the GUN soldier to not let her die a virgin so he helps her out while Shadow watches from the capsule. Maria tells Shadow she wishes it were him and to imagine that its him
>>530073732Rogue has those things on her chest, nothing like Maria, probably doesn't even register as female.
>>530074083Not in the game therefore non canon
>>530074247...or WAS she?
Why do windfags all draw Sonic with tiny piercing eyes? It's the quickest way to spot a windfag artist
>>530074247I cant believe this post have this much replies.
>>530074596I wonder how maria and shadow could be as parents.
>>530074596Bros why is Hfoma so wholesome? all male hedgehogs should have a human female wife they impregnate.
>>530074934Our Paragon and our ambassador
>>530074934Soulless ambassador. At least Arin wasn't afraid in being honest and showing his actual face.
>>530075069Male human x female sonic character is cute too
>>530075269This is the worst attempt of bait I seen in years

PSME said Maria would give it up to the first male she meets
>>530070990I don't know if an AI can be impregnated, but I can sure as fuck try.
>>530076002so Gerald and the scientists and the GUN soldiers
>>530075269metaslop ambassador
>>530075869I unironically enjoyed this manga and I'm glad more people are finding it due to Sonic
>>530075869Maria would say the word 'fornicate' and start talking excitedly about anatomy when she sees a cock desu
>>530075957Death by Tangle is my ideal way out
>>530076521imagine how sweaty it gets under there
>>530075957Hey I know the full gif of this
>>530076843uunnnnnfffffff
>>530077112catbox it
>>530075037Maria: Naturally suited for a motherhood role, would be better at it than all the other main girls in the franchise. She would also actively want to be a mother and probably wouldn't be content with only one kid. Her downsides would come from spoiling her child. She remembers how horrible it was to be restricted in what she could do because of her sickness, and so she ends up not restricting her children enough as a result.
Shadow: Firmly out of his depth on the emotional part of fatherhood. While he'd be good at things that you can learn from a book (How much milk to give, how long to warm it, how to build a crib, etc.), he'd be bad at any form of emotional/physical comfort for his kid. He wouldn't know how to relate to most childhood struggles since he was simply created. But even so, he's willing to try his very best if it's for Maria. Her wishes are his.
Made a direct comparison collage between the Tokyo Toy Show demo screens and the unused demo input data discovered in the Sonic 1 final. Lines up almost perfectly, the only problem being that we don't have the original Green Hill map from the 1990 demo. He could have moved faster or slower due to the terrain and the speed he originally had in the TTS build.
Shadriafags are starting to creep me out bros.
>>530065269While both were artificially made, Shadow doesn't work as Homelander because he's not a narcissist
>>530077718"IM DA KEEEWLEST!!!"

>>530077647So the theory was correct then? Neat.
>>530074247>Maria is basically the Virgin Mary with Shadow being their worlds equivalent to Jesus
>>530077448I will belive shadow would start as you describe it, but i'm sure with time he could emotional and physically relate with his children, with maria alive, he wouldn't be an edgy emo character either, at best he would only be a serious character.
Wound shadow and maria would be a loved-dovey couple or something similar to vegeta and bulma? With shadow acting serious but being lovey-dovey off-screen?
>>530078004That's just playful boasting anon.
>>530078538literally every single line he says is some variation of "You're comparing yourself to me? Ha. You're not even good enough to be my fake! All hail Shadow, the ultimate omega uchiha force!"
He's got an ego taller than he is.
>>530077718Shadow is a mentally unstable psychopath who has schizophrenic delusions and is prone to violence.
Marine isn't canonically a virgin
>>530078538It's not even that. He's not letting Sonic's "lucky" hit psych him out, and is trying to keep his cool under pressure.
>>530078901yeah, because of me
>>530078968>I'M THE COOLEST! I'M THE COOLEST! I AM THE COOLEST!
>>530078968who keeps their cool by loudly crowing "I'm da bestest and da coolest evar!!!"? A narcissist, that's who.
>>530078372Shadriafags are so full of bullshit
Vanilla isn't canonically a virgin.
Shadow the type of guy to yell "DONT LAUGH AT ME!!!" when people start laughing at him
>>530079226she reproduced asexually, as Chao and some irl animals are known to do
When people make fun of him in Battle and Olympics Shadow says "GRRR!!!!" out loud then waddles off upset
>>530079226I really dont know what to say to you, What did you excpect? She have a daughter you know?
uuuuuuu tangle im being oppressed
