How is your evening/night so far, /sthg/?
Any cool sonic fangames that are out recently so I can look them up?
Sonamy is good when you don't have someone yelling in your ear about how it sucks.
>>532207280This shit looks like an Infinity explanation meme
Amy is the only girl hedgehog that needs breeding

>>532207657He's ESL, please understand.
>>532207031no wonder Eggman is obsessed
Ah yes, once again, dead thread thanks to ocfaggotry and drawfaggotry. As always.
Mario bro here. They just finally announced who's Princess Peach VA, which is Courtney Lin. She's known for Fire Emblem(Yikes), Hoyoverse gachas(Extra yikes), and anime garbage like Panty and Stocking.
I'm fucking depressed about this and I want to know how you guys managed to get through something similar when the 2000s 4kids VAs got replaced with the Studiopolis voice cast in the 2010s.
>>532208662>and anime garbage like Panty and Stockingwhat's wrong with panty and stocking
>>532208662VA for what? A new mario game?
I wish Tails Napalm bombs were referenced in some way, is such a random thing for him to have
>>532208662>Courtney Linlooked her up on btva and the only character I recognize is Penny from Pokemon
>>532208825>Penny from PokemonEw.
>>532208809Starting with Mario wonder Mario's voice got changed. And everyone got recast in Mario Kart World. For a short while /v/ was making fun of the new Mario calling him a nepo baby or something and making fun of his voice crack during the Nintendo Direct
>>532208973double points if Miles did it in Etch-A-Sketch
>>532208973Tails would be one of the last people to ship sonadow
>>532207712He gave Gold Surges tail
>>532209135I know Eggman would
>>532208824He has a bunch of cool stuff that should come back if sega actually remembered or gave a shit
if Shadow so polite why does he calls Tails "Tails" and not "Mr. Prower"
>>532207712>Gold in distress >Surge enjoying herself
>>532209135I would consider it.
>>532209684He is Miles Prower, but everyone calls him "Tails"
>>532209684You donโt call a kid Mr
Shadow calls characters by their names. He says Eggman and he says The Doctor
>>532209857Cream does (Shadow is younger than Cream btw)
>>532209857Tails has technically lived longer than Shadow, since Shadow was in the tube for 50 years and was only conscious on the ARK for a few years.
if so polite, why does Shadow call Maria "Maria" and not "Ms. Maria?"
you can't tell me Eggman doesn't want to shove his tongue down Sonic's throat

rate my taste /sthg/
>>532210564Certainly the list of all time
>>532210564I mean, is lukewarm, nothing too crazy here to me but I assume a lot of people would disagree with some placements.
Also how do you even rate Generations and Sonic gen x Shadow? It's basically the same game but with a shadow dlc. I assume is lower because of the censorship?
>>532210564>Forces anywhere above trash
>>532211176Sonic Generations and Shadow Generations are two different games. Sonic x Shadow Generations is a collection consisting of two games.
>>532211264That looks like Elias.
>>532211221How is Forces trash?
Odds, make pasta
Evens, go to the gym
>>532210140Slightly related but Shadow uses "kimi" for Maria in Japanese. It's a term for "you", a second-person pronoun. It's used by men to their girlfriends or close friends/family with each other.
Maybe Sonic Underground is good
>>532211630Rerollin'
>>532211734Only in my tummy area...
>>532211816why are people suddenly interested in obscure characters from Sonic Underground?
>>532211902Official Sonic media is so boring that going back to look at older things is more interesting

>How is Forces trash?
Imagine actually asking this. We need to kill all Moderntards. The world will be a better place without limp-wristed slop-consuming troglodytes ruining our franchise and breathing our air.
>>532211902Obscure characters are interesting because we don't know anything about them. At this point I've heard every last detail about Tails and Silver against my will.

>>532212468>lazy fattyFINE, I'll make pasta after the gym... Stop bullying me... :(
>>532212107all the character designs in Sonic Underground were atrocious with the exception of character designs that were variations of Sonic himself
>>532212205Sonic Forces is a Classic Sonic game.
>>532211105I did not realize this. I found it from another social media site.
Isn't Sonic targeted at western audiences?
>>532212807It's complicated
If you didnโt play forces inbetween beating mania and mania encore then you didnโt beat mania and you missed one third of the story
>>532210564If you posted this back in the late 2000s or the 2010s, people would say that you had great taste.
Nowadays? You would be mocked, insulted, and laughed at since it's very clear you're a classic fan(Who are mostly despised in the community nowadays).
>>532212945You're assuming people even played either of those games for more than 10 minutes
>>532212945The story isn't even over with that because we don't know what the fuck happened to Infinite
>>532212419I always love new official sage art, is so cute

>>532213549>isn't sonic targeted at 8 year oldsIt is targeted primarily to children but old fans are in second place. Although it doesn't feel that way.

>>532212419I'm gonna laugh so hard when Sage is forgotten about 2 games from now
>>532215069Nicky is actually the original personality but in every universe the sonic persona takes over way too early, the manga is the only world where nicky is strong enough to grow and actually fight back against sonic
>>532214772Here's my last (you) since I think you are amusing
>>532215108What, the fact they have humanized Sally Acorn as one half of a buddy cop pair didn't tip you off?
Responding to the obvious troll and calling him a namefag from years ago only validates his retardation. Don't enable somebody who's clearly suffering from a disability, anons.

It's just me or 4chan is kinda slow right now?
>>532215547She was too hot for me to pay attention

>>532215870It's acting up for me too
>>532215921It can't be THAT bad
How difficult can it be to hire another team of sonic fans and make another game like mania, not mania 2 but just better than superstars, thereโs like a gorillion autist making fan games i bet they can make at least 1 team and 2 back up teams in case the first leaves

>>532223947You'll only get stuck by their quills if they feel they're in danger. Sonic is fearless, so his quills won't hurt you.
>>532215908Ian writes like an AI. Just an algorithm of words and text. No deeper meaning.
>>532224296no, AI would improve Flynn's writing if he uses it and uses it correctly
Maybe Sonic shouldn't be fearless.
>>532224119You made me want to post that one piece of fanart with Maria & Human Amy sharing their pet hedgys (realistic Shadow & Sonic respectively) but I can't find it.
>>532224420Should we test this hypothesis out?

>The Mario series has the voice actor of Vegeta now
>Meanwhile the Sonic series still has dogshit voice actors from the 2010s
If Sega was actually smart, they would immediately get rid all the 2010s voice actors and replace them with the ones from DBZ. Sean Schemmel would be a fantastic Sonic.

Both franchises are notorious for massive amounts of licensed slop and a heavy quantity over quality feel. Relying on essentially the quality of the flagship product to give it any integrity.

>>531923636>you cried to Slashy in his DMsThis never happened. I mentioned it being pathetic that you blocked me on twitter. Nothing about 'crying'. And for the record, my issue was with you calling biological females transgender as an insult. Not with you 'being mean to trans people' or what have you. Slashy was the one who decided to approach you about that entirely of his own volition. Something that I wish he had not done because of the fact you had blocked me. I respected that and did not wish to engage with you directly further on the subject unless you in particular reached out to me.

>>532228301>2+ day old post about Discord dramaC'mon...
I was uncomfortable with you in that server from the beginning and said nothing. Seeing you call yourself a "girl" when you are a man is extremely unsettling to me on a very deep level. I still sucked it up, I didn't mention it, I didn't try to correct you, and I engaged with you cordially in conversation because, despite having the option to just ban you at my fingertips, I didn't want to do to others what had been done to me.
But like every person under your flag, you got mad at people freely voicing their thoughts, left, then complained about toxicity on the owner's post and to everyone around you. It's not just Slashy who messaged me about it, one of your Tailsfag friends did as well. He tried to convince me you're "not one of them". Heaven knows how many more you told, from what I gather you told them I instigated it.
To think you said you disliked "imposing personal moral, political, and social values on the community in a way that is suffocating".
It's not enough for you to have 100,000 places that vocally accommodate you and kick out all of your ideological enemies. You knowingly went into a server shilled by me. There's even a lefty Shadria server, you could have gone there, but you specifically chose mine.
In my perspective, troons try to destroy what makes me comfortable and happy. That mindset is NEVER proven wrong. It's only ever reinforced.
I don't want to be reminded that gender cultism exists because it makes me feel physically ill. I will always react extremely negatively in response to any attempt to control me, what I do, and how I think. It doesn't matter to me if it hurts me, it doesn't matter if I'm sad or angry, and it won't matter if I'm eventually doxed or hurt in real life. I would rather be killed than be forced to say things I don't and never will believe.
I hope that makes sense because I don't want to reply anymore. This isn't (shouldn't be) off-site drama dumping grounds.
>>532223947>>532224119>Hey, Sonic. May I please pet you? >"Sure! Go right ahead."
>>532233971AOSTH I can believe, but not SatAM.
Do you ever see this franchise becoming one where two characters charge each other and the resulting clash unleashes a shockwave that blows everybody back and devastates the surrounding area?
>>532235113the stoopid friends crowd can't be SatAMfags because SatAM was about Sonic and his stoopid friends
>>532227430>Bitch, I don't run this site. I got a entire city and its defenses to manage. Plus I'm primary support for the strike force that functionally comprises the bulk of my nation's military. Blow me.
>>532235150They already do that in the movies.
>>532235314Surge only does anal.
>>532233476>Why is Sonic such a dick to Knuckles? What the fuck even warranted that?
I told you Shadria fags would ruin sthg
>>532235549So who's arguing?
>>532231989Shadow after I kiss him <3
>>532231861? '06 documents confirm Rouge has a thing for both Shadow, but it doesn't say if Shadow feels the same way. Nothing does. It's one-sided for all intents and purposes.
>>532233428You can emulate Chronicles too. It's okay, nothing to write home about. I personally thought it was mildly entertaining, but it's not great.
>>532235196i haven't seen any of them the only thing I know from the movies is that Sonic and Shadow did a dap up
>>532235549Shadria saved /sthg/.
Source: I made it up just now.
Fuck it, I'm bored. Let's shit on Knuckles.
Is Sega really so butthurt scared of Penders that they've intentionally ruined one of their most iconic characters by forcing him to stand in front of a useless rock on an empty island, unable to do ANYTHING ever? Pathetic.
>>53223566806 documents say "rouge has a thing for shadow in the games, and a complicated relationship with knuckles in X"
That seemingly implies that in the games she's intended to have a crush on shadow, whereas her thing for knuckles was an X-only thing. Seeing as how she was designed to be Shadow's partner and apparent love interest, it's reasonable to expect that if shadow falls for anyone, his only option is rouge. It's the only one that makes any sense for either character. Similar to how the only reasonable option is Amy, and Silver Blaze. It also makes sense from a branding perspective because it's hedgehog-centric. If they waste time giving anyone love interests, it'll be the hedgehogs, namely sonic and shadow, who already have confirmed obvious choices.
>>532236021For years people complained about Knuckles not doing his job, being the guardian of the Master Emerald.
They literally gave the people what they wanted, so why are they complaining now?

>Fuck it, I'm bored. Let's shit on Knuckle
Shadougefags when you remind them that Rouge is taller than Shadow
>>532236021No. It's Ian. SEGA had Knuckles be the leader of the resistance in Forces independent of his duty as Guardian of the Master Emerald.
SEGA wanted to have Knuckles go to the Starfall Islands along with his friends of his own accord.
Ian demanded this be changed so that Knuckles had a contrived reason for ending up on the Starfall Islands. Ian hates the idea of Knuckles going 'against his role as Guardian' and autistically wants to pigeonhole Knuckles into this perpetual role.
>>532236220So is Sally, what's your point?
>>532236021Overrated nontent character who should have been vaulted after SA1. Complete fuck up in everything he's ever done, and only exists to be sonic's dudebro friend when he's not jobbing to the antagonist of the week.
>>532236103Be careful what you wish for. Turns out a character standing in place all day isn't very entertaining.
>>532236242>SEGA had Knuckles be the leader of the resistance in Forces independent of his duty as Guardian of the Master Emerald.Yeah, and look how that turned out. Whoever thought this was a good idea needs to be slapped. Knuckles is a bruiser, a bouncer. He's not a goddamn paramilitary leader.
>>532236242>Ian hates the idea of Knuckles going 'against his role as Guardian' and autistically wants to pigeonhole Knuckles into this perpetual role.The issue was Knuckles was usually seen hanging out with Sonic and Tails for no reason whatsoever, he literally had no reason to be in Sonic 06 whatsoever.
It's honestly not difficult to think of things for Knuckles to do that wouldn't contradict his job as Guardian of the Master Emerald and Angel Island.

>>532236220But Shadow is supposed to be my badass 7ft tall selfinsert...
>>532236242>Ian demandedBro, the dude is some cheaply paid freelancer, he can't demand shit.
>>532236328Sega's big mistake was not making a Knuckles game that capitalized on the big God of War crazy when everybody was making their own version of it. He's literally the best character for that kind of gameplay, the Werehog was a stupid idea.
>>532236452>he literally had no reason to be in Sonic 06 whatsoever.He had no reason to be in Heroes either. Or any of the Riders games, or Shad05. Etc, etc. This dude has literally no reason to ever leave that fucking island, and that's the problem.
Also, funny how people somehow get mad at Ian when he allegedly wants to stay true to a character's core concept.
>>532236565Why is this ignored in all of their fanart
>>532236581Right?! Why in the FUCK does the Werehog exist when Knuckles is right there? Been saying this for years. Hell, fucking Amy would've made more sense than turning Sonic into a werewolf.
>>532236710Knuckles' "core concept" means he doesn't do jack and fuck in the franchise ever. Why else do you think he's such a nonentity in IDW?
>>532236710I'm not mad at Ian for wanting to " stay true to a character's core concept", I'm mad at him for failing to do even a halfway decent job at working within those parameters.
>>532236910Ironically Frontiers destroyed some potential story setups for Knuckles, such as Chaos and the origin of the Chaos Emeralds.
>>532236847I mean he's supposed to be a 1:1 of 3'3" Sonic. I think a lot of fans just subconsciously disregard Rouge's height advantage as being due to her prodigious high-heels. Something I find as interesting is Blaze is slightly shorter and exactly halfway between Sonic & Amy.
>>532236451>Knuckles is a bruiser, a bouncerHe's an introspective and cunning treasure hunter who was saddled with the unfortunate responsibility of being the ME's sole guardian. He already had a convenient reason for leaving the emerald: wanting to get out and adventure. He's been flanderized over the years to being a generic tough guy who wants everyone off his lawn, with Ian writing him like he's in love with the damn gem and treating it like his mom. His whole arc in frontiers where he wants to get out and see the world more is a literal repeat of his adventure storyline.
>>532237135>Ironically Frontiers destroyed some potential story setups for Knuckles, such as Chaos and the origin of the Chaos Emeralds.True point about the origin of Chaos and the Emerlads, but it at least did protect the mystery of the Master Emerald as an Earth-native artifact.
>>532237178Something doesn't add up there.
It looks as if Blaze is just slightly taller than Silver, but the numbers say Silver's got the same height as Sonic and Shadow...
your are brainrot you bloody bastard bloody bitch
>>532236053It's definitely played up in X, but let's not pretend Knuxouge wasn't a thing in the games. It obviously was, there's no other reason for that scene where Knuckles saves her from falling than to add romantic tension to their dynamic. There's also other shipbaiting in the games, like Sonic asking the two if they're on a date and the likes, and plenty of bios/descriptions aside from the '06 one that mention Rouge has an interest in him (and sometimes they mention he might be falling for her too).
Knuckles' weakness is girls, so what better rival for him than a seductive alpha female who gets her way by flirting and manipulating people? It's pretty obvious what they were going for.
Shadow seems available at first glance, but he's emotionally taken by Maria. No, it doesn't matter if she's dead. A tragic hero like Shadow would of course have a tragic love life.
>>532236847When I made Shadouge fanart I made him the shorter one. Don't look at me.
>>532236910>Knuckles' "core concept" means he doesn't do jack and fuck in the franchise ever.Again, that's the problem.
>>532236943The parameters are unreasonable and unworkable. Flynn even tried to mitigate this by adding Sticks to be his little buddy who would watch the emerald for him while he goes to do adventures, but Sega laughed in his face.
>>532237407>let's not pretend Knuxouge wasn't a thing in the gamesOnly in Sonic Adventure 2. MAYBE also Sonic Battle, it's been a while.
>>532236565Thats a hot manlet
Knuckles' campaign not getting rid of the Master Emerald at the end is one of the biggest narrative mistakes in this franchise. That stupid rock being kept around for no reason is why we're in this situation, and why Knuckles stopped being relevant after SA1
>>532237476Sticks has no reason to be connected to Knuckles or be on the island.
>>532237634So then... what would Knuckles do? Just be a treasure hunter?
>>532236452>>532236710This is not a problem at all. You don't need to explain why Knuckles (or Blaze, or Silver) is there. Just put him there with no explanation
>but it doesn't make senseYes it does, Knuckles is there because he just is. That's how Sonic Team operates and it's fine.
If you really want an explanation, you can always just say he and Tikal/Chaos take turns guarding it post-SA1
>>532237327>It looks as if Blaze is just slightly taller than Silver, but the numbers say Silver's got the same height as Sonic and Shadow...Fur/Quill-induced optical illusion. Same story trying to measure Vegeta depending on if you start slightly above his widow's peak or the ends of his spikes.
>>532237690Sticks is a technophobe who loves shiny things, making her an Angel Island resident is the most obvious way to work her into the mainline canon.
The Knuckles anniversary stories were so telling for how utterly pathetic they were.
>Modern: "Nooooooo, da emarold tying him down is good, actually!"
>Classic: the issue is actually about Trip cause she's actually a viable character despite being brand new
This character needs to be fucking retired already. I can't watch this shit anymore.
>>532237712Yeah it would be better than just being forced to do nothing. Tails, Amy and Gamma got character development in SA1 while Knuckles remained the same. I think the only characters that shouldn't change much are Sonic and Eggman since they're the core components of this series
>>532237840The most obvious way to work her into the main series is to just put her there with no explanation (that's what they did on the Sonic Channel comics and it works perfectly fine)
>but it doesn't make senseYes it does, Sticks is there because she just is. She's simply a character that exists like any other character
>>532237407>let's not pretend Knuxouge wasn't a thing in the games.A game, SA2, and even then it's intentionally vague given how she talks about shadow in the final cutscene.
>Knuckles saves her from falling than to add romantic tension to their dynamic.Probably the most forced scene in franchise history. She's a bat, she can fly, and the beam they're on doesn't even exist prior to the cutscene
>There's also other shipbaiting in the games, like Sonic asking the two if they're on a date and the likes, and plenty of bios/descriptions blah blah blahNot Japanese, don't care. I see the graphic spammed here too and none of those are even canon and most of it is third-party english slop
>Knuckles' weakness is girls, so what better rival for him than a seductive alpha female who gets her way by flirting and manipulating people? It's pretty obvious what they were going for.I must have missed the memo because Sa2 seemed like a shadouge game to me and plenty of other people. Even the scene where knuckles "saves" her was a callback to shadow saving her.
>Shadow seems available at first glance, but he's emotionally taken by Maria.Aaand there's your true colors. Maria is dead, even shadgens hammers home that shadow is moving on.
>>532237840Literally just Amy's friend from the wild. Fuck that Ian's retarded premise.
>Oh, Sticks was on Angel Island the whole time and thought she was a the guardian of it and her and Knuckles never ran into each other.Come on, man.
>>532237690>>532237840There's no legitimate reason Sticks can't be Knuckles' sidekick. Sega are just butthurt at the idea of adding Western made characters because they're old Japanese businessmen.
>>532237840No because Knuckles is meant to be an isolated weirdo. He's the only anthro to live at Angel Island. Retroactively adding a new anthro character there out of nowhere is stupid. Ian could've chosen any classic island for Sticks to inhabit and he chose the one that makes zero sense
>>532238137She can exist within Knuckles' proximity without having a stupid unnecessary backstory
>>532238036I'm not a fan of the Amy and Sticks dynamic, it forces Amy into being the sane one just to accomodate Sticks' mental issues.
>>532238032Here's how think it goes
>SA2 Knuckles and Rouge hand holding>X writes have a MMMMMMMM SHIPPING moment>They make knuxouge in X and recreate the hand holding scene in the SA2 arc>Knuxouge become the default ship>Maekawa comes in later with his shadouge and silvaze>Maekawa: "wow. those people were doing knuxouge in X">ship wars on deviantart and fanfiction.com
>>532238178Just call them furries at this point you sick fuck
>>532237995>>532238036This is especially works for Sticks because she's a comic relief character. Her just being there because fuck you would be funny.
>>532238137Why should Sticks be retconned into Knuckles' sidekick just to get him off Angel Island?
>>532238332Islanders is better
>>532238284Isn't Rouge's design literally built around Knuckles as his rival in SA2? Even as a kid I always assumed Knuxouge was the end game, and then I watched the 06 cutscenes on YouTube and apparently she's for Shadow now lol
>Sonic 2 Archives planned to add a cool reference to the scrapped dragon boss from 3&K beta

Sometimes, I just really hate Sonic romhackers.
>>532238397Because it makes more sense that a crazed gunwoman obsessed with gems looking after the Master Emerald would make more sense than its mystically-appointed guardian just up and leaving it unguarded.
Just have Tails build a security system or whatever.
>>532238474The whole "Rouge is the dark version of Knuckles" thing really didn't last. Now Rouge is the dark version of Tails.
>>532238479Wasn't the 3&K dragon turned into Perfect Chaos?
>>532238397Okay, then retire Knuckles entirely then, because he is literally unusable unless we can find an excuse to get him off that island and do anything besides standing in front of a rock all day. In the rain too. Seriously, what the hell was this shit, X? Build a fucking roof, you stupid bastard.
>>532238483Sticks was not created to just be an out for Knuckles to get off his island. If his character fails to do that on its own, then there is no reason to drag another character down for it.
>>532238592>Now Rouge is the dark version of TailsWhich makes her the bulma to Shadow's vegeta
>>532238648What Sticks was created for ended up as a steaming unsalvageable mess, this is recycling for the sake of salvaging potentially good ideas.
>>532238737Preach. Never abandon a good idea just because it was in a bad product. Metroid Prime 4 brought back the Golem mechs from Federation Force, and they look fucking awesome now. Bring back Sticks and let her be the funny paranoid little gremlin she is.
>>532238737Amy's friend from the wild. Strapping Sticks to Knuckles' rock and making her stationary so Knuckles can appear more is not a potentially good idea. It's wasteful. Ian's idea sucked dick and that's why Sticks is vaulted now.
>>532238479>?si=dbodUVX_FKaS8XUvI hate YouTube for adding this tracking garbage
Luckily the video happens to be saved on archive.org https://web.archive.org/web/20250630154121/https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4jjERqtiN7I
It says it's private but I think it was saved separately so it still plays
The closest thing I can think of, is that the Master Emerald shows visions to Knuckles, and it could order Knuckles to go somewhere and participate in a game's story. You could even bullshit some explanation about "Knuckles saving the world is retroactively protecting the ME" or something
Problem with this is that, the Master Emerald literally telling Knuckles what to do with his life and go outside is kinda pathetic and him going only due to obligation is not very endearing but whatever. Also having him get Master Emerald visions every time would become repetitive
>crackship spamming hours
shitouge will never be in the movies and shitmy will die alone as a happy cuck kek!
>>532238615Maybe, but I don't think this is confirmed
>>532238934I don't get why "Amy's friend from the wild" is any better of an idea for Sticks.
>>532237482Nahh, the Rivals games, Colors DS, that Sonic Generations party, Sonic Runners...they were also shipbaiting Knuxouge in Prime (Rebel/Renegade). All of those had Knuxouge hinting in them. They don't shipbait it as obviously as they used to, but you could say that for most of the pairings.
>>532238032>even then it's intentionally vague Nnnot really...I picked up on it when I was like 7. They're unsubtle about Knuxouge in SA2.
>Probably the most forced scene in franchise history. She's a bat, she can fly, and the beam they're on doesn't even exist prior to the cutsceneYeah, the cutscene is done sloppily, but it tells you pretty clearly what Sega wanted - romantic tension between Knuckles and Rouge.
>Not JapaneseI'm sure you could find some of the things I've mentioned in Japanese as well.
>I must have missed the memo because Sa2 seemed like a shadouge game to meThat's cool if you interpreted it that way I guess, but it seemed like a Knuxouge game through and through to me. The way Shadow and Rouge interact is far less sexually charged and Shadow shows no true interest in her the way Knuckles did.
>Aaand there's your true colors. Maria is dead...That's just Shadow's character. He remembers her and loves her forever. It doesn't matter whether or not she's dead. They also imply she will meet him again somehow.
My impression:
>Rouge has a romantic/sexual interest in Knuckles and Shadow, but she also values her own freedom immensely>Knuckles has a slight interest in Rouge and he is flustered by her teasing, but the Master Emerald takes priority>Shadow has no clear interest in Rouge and he is emotionally taken by Maria, but he cares about Rouge's safety
When is the last time anyone tried to steal the master emerald
>>532239159Sticks into the mainline continuity just to have her glued to the cuck rock just so Knuckles can do something is not a good idea. When people want characters like Sticks to return they want them to do something and participate in the universe. Just have Knuckles find or unseal some ancient creature hidden on the island that's connected to the Master Emerald or whatever and have it guard the emerald. No need to retcon another character to do it.
>>532239414It's not as if that means Sticks can't do her own shit, it just gives her an actual purpose, as opposed to being "Amy's friend" which I'll remind you didn't work out so well as far as Cream's lasting role in the franchise.
>>532238991You might be cooking, actually. In the anniversary story, the M.E does give Knuckles visions to tell him that his life has meaning. Although in context it looks more like even the Master Emerald is telling this nigga to get a life.
>~Knuckles~... ~bring Rouge here~... ~I like when she rubs her voluptuous body on me~... ~make love to her on top of me~... ~restore the echidna race~! But anyway, him getting missions from da emarold would be SOMETHING. Just, give use something, Sega.
>>532238474>Isn't Rouge's design literally built around Knuckles as his rival in SA2?Yes, because she's his rival. She designed to be his rival, not his love interest. She evidently developed independently into her own character without being tethered to knuckles like knuxougefags apparently feel they're owed because "she was designed around him". Blaze was designed around sonic to be his rival, that doesn't automatically make her a love interest too.
>>532239545>Blaze was designed around sonic to be his rival, that doesn't automatically make her a love interest too.As far as the Sonaze fanatics are, it does.
>>532238991Sonic Team already solved this """problem""" in 2003. Literally just put Knuckles in a game with no explanation. If the Master Emerald isn't relevant to the story then there is no need to explore the context of the Master Emerald in that story
>>532239490Purpose to take Knuckles' place being stationary to the rock instead? This whole discussion is how the Master Emerald holds back Knuckles from doing anything and your solution is to take an already preexisting character and chaining them to that role instead.
>which I'll remind you didn't work out so well as far as Cream's lasting role in the franchise.Amy can only have one friend?
>>532239662>Literally just put Knuckles in a game with no explanation.People don't like that though, and if I had to guess neither does Ian.
It is true Knuckles was the only character who had no plot-related reasons to be in Sonic06. Yes he was given a letter to pass along to Sonic, but that's hardly something Knuckles specifically was needed for.
you faggots don't recognize this as romantic because youre retarded and ugly
>>532239662Yeah, this. It's already happened in the series anyway. So just have Knuckles show up like those other times and don;t mention the Master Emerald.
>>532239662An easy solution would be for the ME/Angel island to go missing and now Knuckles, a treasure hunter, is forced to scour the world for clues regarding it's disappearance, ideally echidna artificats, some of which might be scattered in far-off places or museums. There, he now has time to hangout with his friends and interesting solo adventures to go on.
What's with Nintendo hiring these pronouns VAs?
>>532239802I bet those "people" don't like Knuckles not appearing at all as the other option. He either shows up or he doesn't at all. Pick your poison.
>>532239662But that makes no sense, Knuckles has no sense of duty then
>>532206869 (OP)Mina Milestone Maybe?
>>532239040Amy doesn't care.
>>532239802He just so happened to be there and he helped Sonic in his adventure
>Ian doesn't like itWho cares? Ian should follow Sonic Team's rules
>>532239965We don't need to justify it like this at all, but I like the idea
>>532240019Wrong, he's still the same character, the Master Emerald just isn't brought up because it isn't relevant
>>532238178Why can't Sticks just happen to live on the Island that Trip does?
>>532240095Dude handwaving things away isn't solving anything. The Master Emerald is still a thing that needs to be guarded by someone
>>532240127Why purpose would that even serve?
>>532240050That's a terrible idea.
>>532240159It's already been handwaved in games for a decade. Unless you wanna go back and explain why Knuckles was just hanging with Sonic and Tails in all those other games.
uuuuuu im gay and sad uuuuu
>>532240040Peach's nu actor came out today and she has She/They on her bio.
>>532240291Yeah the shit already hit the fan that doesn't mean we can't stop shitting going forward
>>532240095>We don't need to justify it like this at allIn the interest of character consistency you do. For people who want to complain about his "duty", it would still be there, but not in the traditional sense. Now instead of the security guard patrolling the mall, the security guard now has to find out where his keys went and patrol the city.
>>532240329Great, and if I remember right Daisy's new VA is a tranny.
>>532235668>It's one-sided for all intents and purposes.Yeah just like Sonamy was supposed to be right? If anything it just reinforces the notion of Amy and Rouge needing to be the main girls of the franchise because they are THE girls to be paired up with the two most popular boys in this franchise even if a canonized relationship won't be the final outcome. In the end, Sonic/Amy and Shadow/Rouge are paired together in any context regardless
Knuckles either stays with the Master Emerald or he doesn't, Pick a lane, Knucklesfags. Do you want him to appear or do you want him to "respect his duty"?
>>532240205What's the worst that could ha- oh right...
>>532240396I don't see why we can't have both.
My problem is just Knuckles feeling very purposeless for the longest time now.
>>532240159It's not handwaving. It's not giving an explanation at all. It doesn't need to be explained or referenced because it isn't relevant to the story currently being told. That's how all of Sonic Team's stories are written (Ian's input aside). The state of the Master Emerald in Sonic Heroes is simply unknown and unexplained, and that's okay
For all we know Knuckles could be going through a bigger adventure that also included Sonic Heroes. They could give him his own Shadow Generations that reveals what Knuckles was doing before Sonic Heroes. And the best part is that you could make a whole game about that and still completely ignore the Master Emerald
>>532240372There is nothing inconsistent about Knuckles in those games, he is simply not currently on Angel Island for whatever reasons that don't need to be explained because they are currently not relevant
>>532239272>He remembers her and loves her forever.And this love doesn't have to disappear for him to move on, nor does that love have to be romantic in order for her to have the impact she did on him.
>>532240396Emeraldfags already picked their lane. It's the other Knucklesfags that are unhappy
>>532231743That's the good stuff.
>>532240380>Yeah just like Sonamy was supposed to be right?NTA but yes? Sonic didn't give two shits about Amy at first
>>532240593That reaffirms the point that Shadow and Rouge are intended to be the edgier Sonamy
>>532240746No shit.
That being said, it doesn't feel like Shadow really NEEDS Rouge. It's nice to have her around but it feels as if he works better alone.
>>532240529>There is nothing inconsistent about Knuckles in those gamesI'm not disagreeing with you there, but I'm talking about current knuckles. As it is now, he apparently needs a good reason to leave, so it'd be way easier to just flip it upside down and make it his mission to return. At the end of the day, the master emerald, angel island, his duty are all plot devices and should be treated as such.
>>532240798Sonic doesn't really need Amy either and yet
The purpose of the Master Emerald is specifically for Knuckles to have a sense of duty and responsibility that keeps him chained down, in direct opposition to Sonic's freedom.
Knuckles being chained down, unable to be free, is the entire point. He is SUPPOSED to be stuck in one place and NOT free to just be shoved in every adventure, because the entire concept is built on making him the Anti-Sonic. Sonic is as free as the wind, so Knuckles is the immovable mountain.
Sonic is not supposed to have a home, or a job, or any sort of obligation or even relationship that keeps him tied down. Inversely, Knuckles is meant to have all those things locking him down firmly. And so every new Sonic game takes place in a random new location Sonic just happens to travel to, but Knuckles being shoved in just to be part of the gang does not and can not make any sense because Knuckles HAS to be on Angel Island.
The only viable solution is to expand the scope of his guardianship to cover the Chaos Emeralds as well. As Guardian of the Master Emerald, it is his sworn duty to -also- keep watch over the Chaos Emeralds and ensure they do not fall into the wrong hands. The games previously trying to have Knuckles refer to the Chaos Emeralds as falling under Sonic's jurisdiction makes no sense. Sonic may be the one who embodies their power and can control it better than anyone, but it's not his responsibility. Knuckles' job as "The Guardian
should cause him to also be Sonic's Rival by having him be the "authority" and "master" Sonic has to deal with, which of course Sonic would rebel against.
Sonic is aligned with the Chaos Emeralds, Knuckles is aligned with the Master Emerald. Thus, Knuckles is the "Master" that has to keep Sonic, the "Chaos", under control and neutralize him if need be. But Sonic, like with SA1's theme, understands that "Chaos" does not need to be mastered as long as you open your heart, because the heart is the true master of chaos. Not the Master Emerald.
>>532240854>I'm talking about current knucklesI see, that makes more sense
>>532240890Sonic needs Tails more than he needs Amy, and Rouge is Shadow's version of Tails too.
>>532240854No one is going to be thinking of some in-depth reason for Knuckles to get off the island and go on an adventure. Neither the games or IDW want to do this. No continuity does this because it's a retarded headache.
>>532240593>Sonic didn't give two shits about Amy at firstStill saves her in CD too.
>>532240905Sparky you realize knuckles isn't a literal mountain right
>>532240380Shipbait is lame and Sega is lame for including it.
Having the 'suggestion' of romance with no actual romance is retarded and bad writing and storytelling.
Western writers got it right by either making Sonic be in a relationship with Sally or having him be a slut like in AoSTH.
Sonic having a 'will they won't they' with a 12 year old girl is neither interesting nor fun storytelling. Merely enjoyed by manchildren who fantasize about a girl who will love them unconditionally and autistic women and trannies who unhealthily project their neurosis and boy obsession onto Amy Rose.
I yearn for the days Sonic actually had interesting storytelling.
>>532240978I'd want plot-related reasons for Knuckles to go on an adventure, because I prefer a story with setup instead of "I just happened to be in the area".
>>532240905some anon brought up the idea of the ME having a will and telling Knuckles to do stuff, but that seems pretty weird to introduce so late in the series and would definitely have people question why it didn't do that before
>>532240957Tails isn't a woman though. Rouge is. That why she can fit the bill of both Tails and Amy. That's the difference. If Tails was a girl, she'd become the defacto "love interest" with hybrid traits too and Amy wouldnt exist
>peak hating schizo is back
Seriously, fuck your shipping it's because of this alone. She's better for human men.
>>532240746Shadow and Rouge were intended to be the edgier sonamy from the very beginning. It's why he saves her before knuckles does. It's why rouge is given his limiters at the end.
>>532240998Well yeah Sonic is the good guy that saves people. That doesn't mean he reciprocated Amy's feelings at first
>>532241168You're missing the point.
Sonic works better with a partner, while Shadow works better solo.
>>532241157Didn't that kinda happen in SA1
>>532241205Nah. He really wants to fuck Cream, anon. Trust. That's why he saves her. She's more interesting than Amy in the bedroom (it's an ear thing).
>>532240972>edit >>532240706>ai slop >>532241205Then say that, you come off very wrong saying the former.

In short, if Knuckles is the Guardian of the Master Emerald, and the Master Emerald exists to neutralize the power of the Chaos Emeralds, then Knuckles' duty should be to watch over the Chaos Emeralds and ensure they do not cause... well... "chaos". And since Sonic is the embodiment of the Chaos Emeralds' power, then Knuckles has to be Sonic's "Master" as well. Naturally, Sonic won't like that, and thus their sparks their rivalry.
sonic never cared for shitmy
>>532241265>Sonic works better with a partnerThat's not even remotely true. Sonic solo adventures have worked for years. He doesn't NEED Tails either
>>532241309Yeah my bad, I might've exaggerated
You can still characterize Knuckles as the mountain even if he is not literally chained.
>>532241293Amy is such ragebait for shipping shitposts it makes me happy she's not chasing anymore. I despise all the hate she gets because of shippers. You can't even say she's annoying anymore, it's all just shippers.

>>532240587If you went solely by fanart you'd think Amy's canon design would have a tan belly/midriff despite being covered like Shadow/Silver.
>>532241265>Sonic works better with a partnerComplaints about Sonic's shitty friends beg to differ. And even if you don't believe friends were a bad a edition to the series, no ones actually asking for them to be paired up with Sonic, people want multiple solo adventures with the characters
Is shipping a self-insert thing?
>>532241461We've been over this Tails, Rouge is a bat, not a rat.
>532241350
taking it out on amy won't make sonurge and sonouge happen
>>532241470Those people don't understand Sonic. Those friends are a fundamental aspect of the series
>>532241485Sometimes
>>532241350People care for their best friends.
Sonic calling Amy his bestie implies he cares immensely for her. Although not particularly romantic.
>>532241485Often but not always. I personally enjoy shipping for writefag reasons since I find ships fun and cute to write about. I like using them as part of character studies and so on. I am in the minority of shippers, though.
>>532241280yeah, but Chaos was a being directly tied to the ME and the Knuckles tribe so it sorta makes sense why the ME would be a bit more active in directing Knuckles
the ME currently has no place in the larger context of the world, so it wouldn't make sense for it to send Knuckles off to help in potentially world ending disasters
>>532241375>Sonic solo adventures have worked for yearsLiterally the only solo adventure Sonic went through after Sonic 1 was Sonic 4 Ep 1. That's it. I guess Generations could count too since Sonic's friends don't really do anything but Tails is still present in the story
>>532241529No that rat, the other rat.
>>532241468I just take any tan interpretation, (heart chest being peak) as her waxing.
>>532241583>Sonic 4 Ep 1Even that doesn't really count because Tails is still present, just off screen
>>532241696Shouldn't Unleashed fall under the same category then?
Oh wait, Chip, nevermind.
>>532241704yes exactly like this.
>>532241727Tails and Amy are also in Unleashed, idk what you're saying here
If sonic is the wind tails is the shit.
Thus, their duo is the shart
>>532241583(me)
Oh yeah there's Sonic CD too, how could I forget. Two games
Also yeah the 8-bit version of Sonic 2 and Pocket Adventure are also solo adventures but these things are dubiously canon at best. Also the only reason why Sonic 2 8-bit is a Sonic solo is because they couldn't find a way to add Tails following Sonic on 8-bit hardware
>>532241810Scourge is the shart, not Sontails.
blobian boys and human men are so lucky.
>>532241810No no no you got it wrong.
Sonic is the fart, tails is the shit, knuckles is the smell.
>>532241925Silver isn't cool enough to be called the drink
>532241834
No ship will happen specially yours.
>>532241696Oh yeah the Sonic 4 games are a part of a larger thing lol. So it's just Sonic CD
Technically "the shit" is a compliment. Tails just can't stop winning even when you try to insult him
>>532241265Nah, Sonic is just fine without Tails. I would only ask Amy is featured more on solo adventures where she meets people.
>>532242021I'm joking, i'm tailsfag too.
Tails was created to go on adventures with Sonic, they're inseparable
I legit feel bad for Amy because Sonic treats her like shit.
>>532241583Being present in the story is not the same as being paired up together. If Tails function serves the same purpose as other playable characters in the same story, that's not being paired up. Lost World is a pair up, Colors is a pair up, Unleashed is a pair up, Gens is a pair up because Tails is the first character we save and directly follows behind Sonic at every point. Sonic CD is solo. Any game that includes Knuckles to form a team like sa2, heroes, 06, riders, etc does not count because thats not a duo, in which case it can be argued that Sonic doesn't need either. Secret rings and Black Knight are solo, other characters exist but they are not the protagonists of the story that is about sonic helping people.
>But wouldn't merlina count as a duo with sonic?No because Merlina is the character Sonic is helping, not someone he NEEDS in order to go on an adventure.
>>532241727Chip also does not count, but again Unleashed has Tails be integral for traveling around and thus utilized as a duo with Sonic. Frontiers is actually more of a solo adventure (excluding the dlc ending) because he has to save his friends and they all get left to their individual islands.
>>532241696Sonic 4 episode 1 is not a pair up, Episode 2 is.
>>532242306That's why she should move onto better men.

>>532242006Even without Episode 2 or Episode Metal, Tails isn't completely absent from Episode 1. This rocket has his logo on it. I think the implication was that he was building it off screen
>>532242282This
>>532242306Amy sounds better off doing her own things which she has been doing. I don't think she treats her bad at all but he's just fundamentally unable to pursue anything with her.
>>532242306According to the latest tailstube, amy is the one ignoring sonic the simp.
>>532242306shitmy deserves it
>>532242340It doesn't change the fact that none of these are Sonic solo adventures
>532242550
Your ship is shit pathetic, shipper
Beep beep best ship coming through
>>532242451I wish Sonic 4 was good
>>532242340This is just a bunch of nonsense
>>532242580But it does prove the fact that Sonic doesn't NEED Tails specifically. Or any specific character if they all serve the same kinds of function of being present somewhere in the story. The same can be said for Shadow too, he doesn't work solo in any of his stories either. Saying he works better solo can be disproven with the same logic that says Sonic doesn't have solo adventures
I was thinking about tails tales again, what if tails is truly hiding her true power under a jumpsuit?

>>532242824Sonic relies on his wife (male) to cook and clean for him.
Without Tails to enable him to be 'like the wind' through his mechanics work, gadgets, gizmos, and rockets, Sonic would be stuck. Sonic needs Tails to propel him. That's why Tails is a literal propeller boy. He pushes the wind.

>>532242824So what? Sonic and Tails will always be paired together because that's what Tails was created for, and Tails is a success and a quintessential character
Sonic will never settle with anyone.
>>532242981>Westurd headcanonNah
>>532243087I mean those Tails tubes are released in the Japanese social medias so...
>>532242803I just wish it had a different name and better sounds. If you ignore the expectations the name give then it's just a random mediocre 2D platformer
...Alternatively I wish it could have been a game worthy of that title, but that's just a completely different game at that point lol
>>532242981I fucking hate you shippers for inforcing your headcannon into the fundamentals.
>>532242981Tails quite literally carries and propels the wind.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L9idBdGBT_I
>>532243216I like that pic lol
>>532243183And better visuals too. Episode 1 looks abysmal
>>532243026I never argued about Tails not being paired with Sonic. He's the essential player 2 character establish only right after Sonic. Despite that, that doesn't mean Sonic NEEDS him to function. The argument was that Shadow is a solo act while Sonic isn't when the reality is that Shadow has never actually ever had a real solo adventure. Neither Sonic or Shadow NEED any character to function, but they are main characters propped up by a supporting cast with some characters being more important them than others
Sonic can literally pilot and fly his own plane. I don't know why you shippers gas Tails' role up so much. He can't even be allowed to be cooler than Sonic.
>>532243470Oh yeah true lol
>>532243471>He's the essential player 2 characterExcept on Valentine's Day merch.
>>532243471Oh I see. Yeah you're right, Sonic can work without Tails. But those people that cry about le fundamentals are stupid because Sonic needs someone to bounce off from in some capacity, his whole deal is helping people, so genuine Sonic solo stories are actually a very small part of the franchise
>>532243532Sontails fags and Tailsfags are in perpetual denial about Tails role in the series and can't accept he will always be number 2, never the main character, was never meant to be the main character and will never be as cool and chad as Taiwan Coolfox
>>532243663You just reminded me that there was Valentine's Day merch featuring Sonic and Tails years ago. I don't know if I can find it now
>>532243751I like Tails as Sonic's follower
>hey tails can i sleep in your house?
>>sure!
>hey tails could you make laundry for me?
>>sure.
>hey tails could you dry me up with your tails? i had my once-a-year shower!
>>sure...
>hey tails could you lend me some money? 20$ would be awesome!
>>s-sure?
>hey tails can you give me your bedroom this night? I got a nice gal to fuck today
>>s... sure...
And this is why tails should have a villain arc.
>>532243751This coolfox character looks ugly as fuck like the rest of this game's artstyle
>>532243751Sonic the Hedgehog son and Freedom Planet daughter
>>532243852That's Tails' big bro you're sassing
>>532243130Regardless I'm fine with this because anything with her being cute is better than the bullshit.
>>532243751Have you considered that I'm a radical anti-SEGA advocate who hates SEGA, their vision, and their desires for this franchise and wants to actively shit on them and disrespect their vision because I believe it's bad?
The best things to come out of this franchise in the past 25 years have all had involvement from other corporations that are not SEGA.
>>532244016your ship is totally cool, but it's simply inferior to my ship and that's okay ;)
>>532244016My headcannon is more powerful than yours.

>>532243703>Sonic needs someone to bounce off from in some capacityThe same can be said for Shadow. He's not about helping others like Sonic is so people confuse that for going solo, but the reality is he only gets involved in important matters and if it's important, certain characters will converge with him no matter what. He needs someone to bounce off of as well whether it's Maria, Gerald, GUN, Rouge, Eggman or even Sonic himself.

Did other characters get their own dedicated polls? I think it was just Sonic before
>>532245025Pretty sure they did
https://sonic.sega.jp/SonicChannel/special/download/icon/
>>532245161I'm asking because the previous poll had multiple female characters and this one is just Tails
I was rereading earlier IDW issues from before the Metal Virus arc, Tangle and Whisper used to be so much better and tolerable before. They actually did things other than cry and hug, what the fuck happened?
You guys should be getting ready for the Presents
>>532245440What I find weird is that they just become friends out of nowhere at the end of the Neo Metal arc with no buildup
>>532244538Saving this so i understand construction.
Also, BOY number 3 is the way to go.
>>532245262Oh, I misunderstood your question, sorry
I just looked them up they did a poll with only Eggman as well https://nitter.poast.org/SonicOfficialJP/status/1925426444572008473
I love all of those Tails icons, too bad they will only finish two of them
>>532245528Not really. Tangle attempts to make conversation with her while Whisper autistically hides from her by putting on her mask
>>532245654I want 3 for sure but the others are all good too... I guess 4 as well
Tails is so photogenic
>>532245783I thought the implication of this scene was that Whisper shied away because Sonic was nearby not because of Tangle. Beforehand Tangle was laughing at a joke Whisper told her or something like that and it came out of nowhere. Then again maybe I'm misremembering it
>>5322445383 is for avatarfagging pedos. 2 is for actual Tails fans.
>>532245852They're all great, I can't choose. Not that it matters, I don't have a Twitter account
My first instinct would be to vote 1, but we already have tons of fanart like that. 3 is more unique I guess
Unironically, my posts receive more engagement than JP Sonic twitter.

>>532245996>Tangle was laughing at a joke Whisper told her or something like that and it came out of nowhere. Then again maybe I'm misremembering itKinda. You're not totally misremembering it, but the way it plays out looks more like Tangle is hamfisting the interaction to make it look more than it was
>>5322445382 bc there's barely any official art of tails hugging his tails

>today another thread was suffocated under a ton of fox fur
R.I.P. thread
>>532246697Sonic does not have a Donald or a Goofy.
Donald is Mickey's mischievous and bad tempered side, Goofy is Mickey's silly and clumsy goofball side. In the process, Mickey himself was turned into the straight man who looks good and nice compared to Donald, and smart and competent compared to Goofy. For example: If Goofy is Ed and Donald is Eddy, Mickey became Edd (Double D).
But Double D = Tails. The 'original' Mickey, who encompasses both Donald and Goofy's traits, is who Sonic the Hedgehog is. With Tails, who is comparable to the "cleaned up" Mickey, being his kid sidekick and Knuckles as a rival that directly contrasts/challenges him by being more responsible and stuff.
The closest thing to "Donald" for Sonic would honestly be Jet the Hawk, but even then I'm not sure if that's entirely accurate.
Sonic is hellokitty for boys
Tails is Gohan
Knuckles is Shrek
Shadow is hellokitty for edgy boys

Good morning, /sthg/!! Have a good day!
>>532247156The cover art of Sonic 1 says Sonic is the most famous hedgehog in the world but in the background story he seems mostly forgotten. So I guess they always intended for Sonic to be famous in the world of the games even though he isn't in the world where the game stories are fairy tales
>>532248262Off topic garbage. I don't know why he's bringing it up here.
>>532248361Yeah in universe he's a celebrity that's also present in the commercial
https://youtu.be/k6GQKg1HkKc?si=4pFkIMaO2t1Moxgl
And technically the origin story wasn't finished by the time Sonic 1 came out. Akira Watanabe when designing the box art maybe didn't even know about it
>>532248623>technically the origin story wasn't finished by the time Sonic 1 came outWhere did you hear that? Yasuhara said he wrote that story and presented it to SEGA to get the series greenlit

>SPEC 7 What's that?
>>532249652https://segaretro.org/Sega_Players_Enjoy_Club
SPEC 7 also has an interview with Sonic where they introduce his character for the first time, and SPEC 8 has a weird Sonic themed comic with a realistic hedgehog or something

>>532249838That's cool, I'm checking it out, I love the little manga by Yamaguchi that comes before the Sonic section
>>532250084I bet you this scene was deleted because the optics of Jim Carrey exposing himself to a minor were not great. Especially since some of us have not forgotten that shit with Emma Stone.

Groundbreaking, Sonic already has Shadow for the whole "lonely tragic anti-hero" shtick, and Blaze just feels like a lazy rehash with a feline twist and another "girlfriend" for Sonic? As if Amyโs unrelenting obsession wasnโt enough. Blazeโs whole schtick is "I work alone," which is just code for "I have zero chemistry with the cast." Dimps couldโve tried, but letโs be real sheโs irrelevant for a reason. no personality beyond "duty" no memorable arcs, just a forgettable side character destined to fade into obscurity, Some dreams should die.

Can Mimic give himself a functional vagina and womb by transforming into women? Is he technically a tranny? Is he not just a tf festish walking around as a character?
>>532253968He's got some varied shit. He sometimes reposts Sonails art and there was this one time he was hoping Trump stays safe after the assassination attempt
>>532253397>Kishimoto caught watching and liking porn on xwitterWhat?
>>532254767You can google it actually, shits famous.
>>532254585No?
That means he can grow functional organs included bioweapons like claws and perfectly mimic biological functions, but mimic is just a superficial shapeshifter, not a fully functional one like The Thing from John Carpenter's movies.
>>532254585That's a weird question why would ask such question?
>>532254767It was during the post frontiers dlc phase when xitter still showed likes publicly. He liked some mommy fetish porn kek
>>532254987He's gigi's character so I'm wondering he was was just a fetish character she slipped in. Transformation porn created a lot of troons on the internet
>>532228301This is untrue. I confronted Krack about her being aggressive to someone else and she started getting really upset about how people treated her and I felt like "Well maybe this is a bit of a misunderstanding".
>kills your already shitty lesbian fanfiction
>now your story arc is the most boring and gay piece of canonized espionage media ever created
>>532255170Flynn created him so he is Flynn's character.
Anyway my answer is probably but it cannot do anything else other than pee. Mimic's shapeshifting abilities are fairly limited.
>>532255170I can almost guarantee you that Mimic was not meant to appeal to people with a transformation fetish at all.

>>532255676The meltdown on twitter over that would be funny, but it doesn't seem like him or Junichi is interested in 2d hentai. For both of them, it was real world porn
>>532255824You can also tell if someone is autistic or not depending on whether they actually seriously engage with this place.
>>532255910>For both of them, it was real world pornHoly shit that makes it even funnier
>>532254585He just takes the shape of things, he can't functionally become anything otherwise he'd give himself blade arms like Alex Mercer
Sonic Team mandated gooning session
>>532255618Uuuh... last time i settled the controversy with tails having fangs, but they are so small they are never shown.
>Why is that?Because a game model of tails i don't remember from what game featured him with small fox fangs every time he opens his mouth (probably adventure or heroes).
BUT, when evan tried to give him visible fangs in the comics the japanese called and pulled immediately the plug on it, because tails is mandated to not have fangs. pic related made ST sperg out
>>532256185He is too weak to be a compelling enemy for any of the Sonic cast.
>>532255824Because of their niche fetishes or not having them? Elaborate
>>532255006>Blazefag with a mommy fetishAbsolutely fucking based
Evan Stanley cannot draw human women.
>>532256492Mimic with Phantom Ruby powers would go hard given the right writers.
>>532256825She can't draw at all, the characters look fucking obese.
Whatever happened to that fancomic about the dolphin oc?
>>532256298Apparently Sonic Team thinks Tails having fangs makes him more feral when he's supposed to be very polite
>>532256964That would just be Infinite all over again retard, just use Infinite at that point
>>532254642Supporting Trump and being gay aren't contradictory.
I know tons of gay people who like Trump.
A lot of gay Sontails shippers are pro Trump. Notably ZealousFox.
Wishing a president well and that he isn't hurt after an assassination attempt has nothing to do with sexuality.
>>532257014It does, but i think it's a cute and harmless contrast to the overall characterization.
What would ruin him is inserting paws and claws as well, which sometimes happen to the shitty OCs.
>>532257060Infinite creates goons. I'm looking for a less direct approach and more about psychological horror and manipulation. Which by your logic is just Mephiles all over again.
>>532256298>a game model>probably adventure or heroesI want to see
>>532257014I don't think Sonic Team ever stated this, that was some anon's opinion
>>532257103Nobody cares that republicucks are jewish cum guzzlers like the democ-rats.
>>532257612He killed mimic while the rest of the staff didn't know about it.
>>532255170Gigi was molested and raped as a child, end of story
>>532257968Oh, 2006. Cool! So it's false that Sonic Team is fully against it, they did it themselves at one point
Thanks
>>532258150Knowing how inconsistent they are, they probably retconned it like amy's personality.
>>532258150Everyone had fangs in the adventure games too
>>532258220>what am i gonna do with my shitty artShoving it where the sunlight never reach. Lol.
I really do think some of you don't understand how much or an utter failure of communication has to happen for a major plot character to be killed off without warning for 2 of the 3 writers.
Even when Penders and Bollers were actively fucking eachother's stories they at least still read eachother's issues before writing theirs.
Ian legitimately walked into the comic, saw Mimic still alive and without telling anyone (for 6 months btw) killed him without even knowing that Gigi wrote a whole annual about him less than 2 months ago.
Seriously, think about how many times any of these writers could have planned or talked about what to do over the course of 6 months and none of them even bothered to talk about what they were writing.

>>532258463So it's just the new models being bad like usual
>>532258793I'm assuming Gigi was doing the usual and talking about tranny relatable Sonic, Ian was doing his bumble shit, and Evan was probably touching herself to blonde black lesbian porn
>>532258793It's absolutely hilarious.
Like the one cover made by a literally who trans guy from twitter for an issue. Not only they are without a penny, the production is cheap shit, people do not communicate and everyone is selected according to their gay networking over twitter, but the production is outsourced casually and they also spite ecah others.
The comic industry in america is truly in shambles, idw is also a major publisher and their business is pure uncaring exploitation.
>>532258793This is absurd lol
So what if you could see
The Gayest side of me
Noone could ever change
the Lesbian I have become
>>532258793Why is this a big deal but not the times that Flynn says "I don't know why Stanley made x decision."?
>>532258793I thought that all have each other on instant messaging services.
Why is there so much confusion?
>>532260594They don't talk with each other. They're all too busy talking to twitter. Or I guess in Ian's case writing the newest games
>>532260080I blame tailspedos.
>>532260903You are acting like Ian Flynn has a huge workload.
>>532260389That is a big deal too, people here talked about. In fact this debacle only inflates how much a problem that is too because it shows Ian jumped off the comic hoping Mimic was dead by now only to find out its still going and have to write the confrontation himself to end it. He was hoping to throw another writers under the bus and have them deal with the fallout of Mimic dying
What's the lore for Unleashed's Chaos Orbs? As far as I can tell they have none at all, unlike the other robot power sources
>>532261557He could have kept Mimic alive.
>>532261557If I were an IDW writer and I had to deal with that situation I would just continue to use the character as if nothing happened with no explanation for how he's still alive, but also have all the characters reference the events of the issue where he dies as factual events that happened. I think it would be very funny to read the confused reactions from both the Internet and the writer of that issue
>>532261851>If I was>I wouldNo you wouldn't. You would do what you were told because you would need that paycheck lol
>>532261643And I'm glad he didnt because whisper and mimic conflict obviously shouldve ended years ago instead of bleeding this far. It was a shit way to end it, but I'm glad he nipped it in the bud
>>532261982Bury it and kill it later.
>>532261956The IDW staff can pitch whatever stories they want as long as Sega approves.
>pokemon bundle releasing right next to Sonic
>again
What the fuck
>>532261851On one hand, I think its funny as hell that so many anons said that the writers are obviously planning to bring Mimic back when the reality is that they didn't plan anything at all, but on the other hand that means some writer could just revive Mimic and undo everything Ian wanted without question or knowledge. Imagine the backlash if Evan writes in that Mimic's actually still alive somewhere between 81-100. Whisper is never moving on and will always be the uuuuuu cry pillow
>>532262640Just means we wonโt sell or get attention again
>>532262483She already โconcludedโ this damn โarcโ back in her first miniseries. Same shit too with Tangle saying โno dont shoot himโ and stuff. Right now she was just uuuuing because he impersonated Duo and made Lanolin yell at her lmao next heโll deadname her and thus begins her new 20 issue revenge quest
So theyโre doing it where Switch 2 owners get the battle pass or whatever their calling it, items from launch until March 2026 for free due to the delay
>>532262343Uh huh, and you said, quote, "I would just continue to use the character as if nothing happened with no explanation for how he's still alive". Even Sega would t approve of something that retarded.
>>532263157They would. They approved of writers who don't communicate with one another whatsoever.
>>532263275Oh I see. Sorry, I didn't realize I was talking to someone with a mental deficiency.
>>532239840I honestly want a scene where Sonic and Amy finally kiss while Blaze watches and silenty cries from the distance.
Also Silver later kisses Blaze just to rub salt into the wound.
>>532262483Evan Stanley said that Flynn had a plan for what to do with Mimic.
>>532263157Mimic was not conclusively killed, just like Starline.
>>532263365Sega approves of stuff that contradicts the games.
Look at Eggman's appearance in the Phantom Rider arc.
Is this in character?

Is this in character?
https://vocaroo.com/1aCxUn2gQ6Oi
>>532264140Not in character for Amy.
>>532263805And? You keep making entirely unrelated points. None of this means they would allow you to write a dead character as if nothing ever happened with no explanation. You're either retarded or trolling so you get no more (You)s from me.
>>532264313I am not even sure Mimic is officially dead to SEGA same with Starline.
It genuinely seems like the comic cannot conclusively kill off major characters
>>532264340Amy would not subject Cream to something that lewd on purpose.
uuuuu Gayyyy uuuuuu imm Gaayyyyy
>>532263732>>532264430Just because they die a disney cliff death doesn't mean they're not supposed to be dead or are secretly alive. This is a kids comic, kids series, they dont let the furry characters get holes blown through them by other furry characters. They even shy away from Maria's death in sxsg by only putting the gunshot sound and her laying on the ground
Such a good idea wasted, i would have paid so much to collect at least 1 skin of every character and every verdion of amy, but no this is dead on arrival i already experienced 5 seasons of multiversus im not letting that happen to me again
The Diamond Cutters might not be dead. They didnt show them getting brutally ripped apart on screen by the androids, for all we know they could've somehow fought their way through using spare eggman gadgets in the base and escaped. Maybe they've just been in hiding like Mimic
>>532265224They got warped to the past to fight the ancestor of Eggman and had visions of Whisper killing Mimic
>>532264964Flynn outright said he left Starline's death ambiguous because of SEGA.
Sonic 3 is still the best Dragon Ball movie we never had
>>532265224Slinger, Smithy and Claire are better characters than Whisper so I'd be okay with this.
>>532265834You only say this because they didn't get enough screentime to be ruined.
