HOLY SHIT, IT'S GODVERFUCKING ENTER
>>543205953Welp, that’s it. The Sonic franchise had a good run…I guess

What's actually so interesting about Silver? His gimmick is so boring.
Silver
>>543206381Silver makes every male character he touches a homosexual. How do we stop him?
>>543205953pussy SLAYver
>>543206457Sonic
>>543206615what does that representwhat trauma does Silver have that makes him as interesting or moreso than Shadow

Bottom rock level of care and release of one of the worst games ever>Can't deny it, its all true>But people still enjoy it here>SEGA's always got a promise for you>Might be a lie, an illusion>But its there, just around the corner>And it keeps you going>Its a franchise of dreams, and i'm a big dreamer...
Sup guys Sonic is the wind

shadilver: cringelancahad: based
Amy
>>543206543Nothing. It’s a bunch of contrarians who don’t want to admit they like Shadow
Tails!
>>543205953They should just get rid of metal sonic already. The character has zero point post-heroes and you wouldn't think Eggman would keep him around after that anyway. He still looks like classic Sonic for some reason so the design clashes, all he ever does is act as a generic Egg Pawn and every now and then they tease a little "what if you actually didn't listen to Eggman?" line that goes nowhere. You don't need to keep using every character just because they're in the lore. We have too many sonic clones as it is
>>543206152I love when maria use shadows colors or use make up inspired by him, while shadow loose his spaghetti for it.
>>543206947>Bottom rock
Tails and Knuckles should be the next ones to get years, but the whole “it follows the movies” rule screws them both…again
>>543207152What happened to his arms and legs?
>>543207168I feel like if sonic team makes a year of amy, which I doubt they will ever do, their best bet would be making a game where amy is kidna the protagonist of a proper standalone chao garden game. I legit think that would create a lot of interest and profit
Keikaku Amy
>>543207168>Unintresting
Amy baking/ prostitution game.
>>543207346The arms are there, you just don't get a good look at them, and the legs are cut out.
>>543206543Light Sonic from the darkest future imaginable.
Have a goodnight, /sthg/!
>>543207414Based Swarthy writer.
>>543207471Why would someone cut his legs off? He needed those!
>>543207414Holy fuck, our lord and savior Tracy "the chosen one" yardley is gonna make interiors again?!
>>543207168>metal>unstoppable In what fucking world?
>>543207506except he comes from a good future now
>>543207414Her facial expressions are a goldmine.
Shadria is basedI always liked ShadriaI get confused whenever people say only one person here likes Shadria, that can't be true because I like Shadria.
>>543207168this pic is obviously bait, right? they didn't even bother to spell it right and i think is too on the nose how much hate is directed to one character while glazing the other like is any better at all
>>543207152is shit
>>543207797
>>543207414>>543207793I need this pic in a bigger quality to make a whatsapp sticker.
>>543207168>Vaultal Sonic getting uppity.
why
>>543208010Nicw
>>543207414I missed Tracy yardley expressions so much.He was a goat at making every single sonic character having amazingly expressions
>>543207797Only one person says only one person likes Shadria. Have a Shadria for your troubles.
'ge
>>543208348There we go
>>543208175people btfo him again
>west vocal song/composer>close game
>>543208471>_master1200.jpgAnon noooLog in to Pixiv and click on the art to bring up the full size and then save it that way>>543208764What did he do this time?
>>543208602She needs spankings.
>>543208175I've saw the trend, actual sonic fans are mocking haters for being ultra stupid.Kinda strange to me, but I cant say it wasnt expected.Haters are also trying to weapons Daniel Barnes to insult flynn, but barnes himself is disgusted by this.
Maria isn't to be harmed
>the landwhale shows up>suddenly shadria spam startsNot beating the lonely dogfucker allegations.
>>543208175>The fandom is entirely mocking ian flynn haters as a wholeThis sure wasn't on my bingo card.
>>543208908>people are finally mocking obsessive ian haters openlybased, it's gotten really fucking annoying and I'm not even a big fan of ian's writing style
>>543209076I'm not fat, female, ore attracted to Shadow in any way. This assertion is incorrect. I like this pairing because I like the dynamic they have.
>>543207797I like most ships, and the few that I don't I just ignore. But some people can be really annoying about it.
>>543209185I ship Maria with my paddle.
I can't stand seeing the word mobian because it has IAN in the name which makes me have a mental breakdown
>>543209252obsessed
Mobian Flynn
>>543208908>>543209160Actual Sonic fans don't like Ian. This is just fact. It's not intended to be aggressive, it's just impossible to both care about the real franchise on a deep level and then like Ian.
The reason why scrapnik island is the best IDW arc is because it's the one least affected by mandates. It's self-enclosed, sonic doesn't do much in it, and SEGA hates tails so there's no real mandates to constrain him.
I remember really liking that metal sonic idea that was thrown around a forever ago. Where you're actually playing a villain and don't know why your friends are attacking you, but the truth is revealed in subtle hints. That'd be kino
>>543209252I hate mobian and mobius too. It doesn't even make sense.
>>543208908>>543209138>People are using the ian flynn killed my grandma trolls meme.Gotta be honest, it got a sensible chuckle out of me.
You retards need to wake up and realize Evan Stanley is way more dangerous than Ian Flynn. Ian's a glorified freelancer who gets his scripts rewritten for JP and treated like shit by SEGA. Meanwhile Evan is an ACTUAL employee with job security. She doesn't give a fuck about most of the brand - she only touches mainline IDW and those Chao Tales shorts, that's it. She can't even draw human women properly which is pathetic for someone in her position.Here's the real kicker: Japanese social media actually mentions her. Ian gets ignored over there but Evan has actual presence. She has WAY more chance of affecting canon than Flynn ever will. Ian's kept at arm's length and supervised to hell, but Evan's integrated into the company structure.Everyone's busy seething about Flynn while Evan's quietly getting more power and influence. She's gonna do way more damage long-term because she actually has the position and access to fuck things up properly. Ian's just a punching bag, Evan's the one you should actually be worried about. Mark my words.
>>543209557Fuck off krack
>>543209472Mobian = mobile sapiens = mobien = mobianMobius is out of place outside of archie but you could make it work since the planet has an 'interior' too. A mobius has two sides.
>>543209557Oh shit
Taxman, Hesse and Lopes are as bad Ian and Evan
>>543209557sounds plausiblethen why does Ian generate so much vitriole
>>543209628>Everything I don't like is Krack
>>543207168
>>543209138>even Ken penders is defending ian flynnBoy, what the fuck is even happening.
>>543209557She wants to fuck silver so she's alright with me. Mobian fuckers are valid.
I think Rouge should be a bit more pear shaped. Not fat but a little chubbier like she was in SA2. That is all.
>>543209628Why do you guys call everybody Krack all the time >>543209557This might all be true but is there really a threat when Evan isn't particularly defensive of her headcanons? Not shilling for Evan.
Future Sonic game.
>>543209734You're not fooling anyone krack
>>543209834fine fine you got me.
>>543209790>This might all be true but is there really a threat when Evan isn't particularly defensive of her headcanons? Not shilling for EvanShe never really changed anything either beyond Sonic's art.Has her writing really improved? Tell me someone
>>543209741>anyone looking for story from the games will be disappointed no matter whatKen is oddly based at times like these. He knows what's up with the franchise.i guess a man who has nothing to lose can always speak the truth when others will not.
>>543209750>I think Rouge should be a bit more pear shaped.you and the entire fanbase
>>543209790He got raped by Krack in the Chilly Christmas of '24
>>543209834Damn it I thought I had you all fooled!
>>543209834How did you find out?
>>543209741>Flynn haters are seen in the whole fandom like the true retards they are.>even Ken penders is involved.I'm happy, but this is a really strange turn out of events.
>>543209957KWAB
How can you look at the constant war on Twitter and think that /sthg/ is not a significantly better community?
>>543209741dude this was a year ago
>>543207354get evening star to make amy a platformer that's actually 3d. it'll do better than penny did
>>543209741Flynn is not faithful enough to the games. Twitter users mocking Flynn haters do not care that he is not faithful enough to the games. They will block you immediately if you try to argue that.>>543209741>>543209741
>>543209557>Here's the real kicker: Japanese social media actually mentions her.Yep, this was written by the Shitria shipper
>>543209741This still reads as Ken Penders shitting on Ian flynn as always (based)
>>543210030Happy for what? Flynn fans are in a cult.
>>543209557>now this place will reflect their hate on evan stanley as a scapegoat thanks to recent news.I swear this place can be extremely retarded sometimes.
>>543210162The games themselves are not consistent enough to care about this
How can you look at the constant bad Modernshit content and think that Classic is not a significantly better series?
>>543210213Who should be blamed then?
“Uhh… Blaze? I peed in the void, again…”
>>543207152boy
why am i still here. why can i not just stop thinking about sonic. I don't like the comics anymore, I don't like any of the writers, I don't like the voices, the character models, the only thing I still enjoy from the current series is some of the gameplay and music. A sane person would just move on. At some point if I'm just constantly complaining about everything this series does, it's my fault for not just moving on.
>>543210213No it is valid to blame the person with actual creative power.>>543210239Flynn wants the franchise to just be archie.
>>543210301...Ian flynn
>>543210174>Schizo post
>>543210174this so much this only one person pays attention to what the japanese people running the japanese franchise say
>>543210060how can you make this post every thread
>>543207168>He still looks like classic Sonic for some reason so the design clashesYou know it's too bad, Metal used to get redesigned all the time but now he's stagnated.
>>543210381>only one person checks the japanese audiencei hope you're being ironic or you're just a dumbass
>>543209557>Japanese social media actually mentions herCool, good for her! Can I see the posts?
>>543210239>The games themselves are not consistent enough to care about thisSays fucking who?
>>543209921None of these mods ever quite look right to me. I think they're too focused on the tits but the thighs and hips need scales up instead.
et the Flynnfags and the Xitter troons have their little war. It's hilarious watching them all have a public meltdown over a guy who writes comics for a blue hedgehog.The more his bullshit gets exposed to normies, the better. Maybe if the screeching gets loud enough, SEGA will finally realize what a hack he is and we'll be free of him. It's the most entertainment this faggit has provided in years.
>>543210554The games
You know something is wrong when even Twitter retards can see flynn haters/the fandom bullshit.
>>543210637They were fine before Forces.
>>543210247The problem is I don't trust anyone other than the Mania team to make new Classic levels. I DO trust Sonic Team to make pretty fun boost levels after two genuinely good games in a row, even if it's kind of a...lower art form, if that makes sense.
>>543210356i've literally become this guy with ian flynn
>>543210696Try 06
>>543210637>The gamesThat's not an answer. You don't have an actual answer because you're full of shit, like usual.
>unstoppable
>>543210692literally who?
if it was down to me everything in this franchise would be written by maekawa
>>543210692Part of the reason is the Flynn cult. Btw KinpinThawne openly admits to being a brand defender and will always defend the current writing.
Reminder that IDW sonic sells great and the series will last for a while.
>>543206543You blazefags wouldn't get it, why don't you post more sonaze while you're at it
>>543210263It's alright, Silver. Sometimes, it is necessary to take a step back before taking a step forward. You've been improving lately with your potty training, and I am still very proud of you. Let's get you cleaned up.
>>543210773Do you have a functioning brain? Do you pay attention at all? NONE of the characters or even the writing styles are consistent throughout all the games, you can’t argue that
>>543210864The chart stops in 2021 and does not include subscriptions or newsstand sales that Archie had.
>>543208060
>>543210864How does the IDW Sonic survive once IDW goes under?
>>543210864>tangle miniseries sold more than almost any non-crossover archie volumebros....
>>543210932Pre-2010 everything was consistent and the Japanese writing is still pretty consistent.
>>543208908Is pretty intersting to see the kind of monsters this fandom can create.
>>543210994See>>543210935DC X Sonic outsold any Sonic comic ever made by a huge margin maybe Sonic should go to DC.
>>543210935Yeah unfortunately comic sales numbers don't exist anymore. That's one of the things that have disappeared in the enshittification of everything in the west after COVID. Distributors don't do it anymore.
>>543211029Guess what chief, 2010 was 15 years ago. And the Japanese wrote Forces which fucked everything royally
>sthg is now shilling Barnes
>>543210932>you can’t argue thatI can, but the thing is that you're going to respond in bad faith. You don't want to actually discuss anything, you just want your side to be correct because you have a faggot ass agenda to push.
>>543210956Hey thanks lad, how nice of you. "Fist bumb"
>>543211093We know how it places on the comic sales chart currently. It is lucky to get in the top 120 best selling comics.>>543211103IDW being based on Forces made things worse.
>>543211035>monsterslike danny?
>try looking up new Surge art>It's AALLLLLL shipping
This is what IDW shills call a great selling comic.
>>543211151You can’t. And on the off chance you can, here’s your opportunity. Go.
>>543211258
>>543211103>And the Japanese wrote Forces which fucked everything royally
>>543211258seems good to me
>>543211258>145th placelmao, deserves to be lower
>>543211180>deflecting to IDW Classic japfag tactic, also not relevant
You know krack is here when the whole thread is about IDW and twitter screenshots.
>>543207168I like the Metal Overlord dialogue in Shadow Generations
>>543211103>year argument The Meta Era only has 4 games to its name. It only has slightly more than that if you want to count spinoff shit.
>>543211376>you're 44, act like itDanny is looking pretty based
>>543211426Not everyone is crack anon. We're just discussing a recent topic.
More of IDW doing garbage on sales charts. The Sonic Prime screenshot comics do better than mainline IDW.
>>543211426Only one person here posts about IDW, my personal boogeyman.
>>543211364Nakamura is such an unbelievable fuckup
>>543211364>story elements and flow made in Japan, write the whole thing firmly in Japan You played yourself
Why is it a problem if IDW sales are mediocre? It is not like Sonic is not used to mediocre sales.
>>543211385>japfagthis is a general about a japanese franchise on a site dedicated to japanese culture. are you lost perhaps
>>543211231Did I take sides? fuck no, this fandom is retarded as a whole everyone is either a sociopath or plainly retarded?
>>543211626truth nuke
Sanity check, who here still believes they are getting in crossworlds?
>>543211637>a site dedicated to japanese cultureLol
>>543211626Because it is not mediocre it is below average.
>>543211637>Japanese franchiseThat Japan itself doesn’t give a fuck about. Are YOU lost?
>>543211785Yes, that's literally why 4chan was made moron, for anime/manga discussion.
>>543211736They are showing in every single phone game and are referenced in main games and tailstube.Crossworlds even made extreme gears based on both, so I guess?
SA1 is better than SA2
>>543211842Not anymore
>>543211736Tangle and surge as separate solo entries probably, but not whisper.Keep in mind they already have models for surge/tangle, so it's essentially free to put them in.
>>543211840>Ad populumSonic is a Japanese franchise. Cope.
>>543211842Look at all the boards that exist now and tell yourself with a straight face it’s still only for Japan, retard
>>543211869yes
Everyone who talks about anything is my boogeyman. If multiple people dislike something, they're all my boogeyman. If multiple people like something, they're all my boogeyman.
Yet IDW is more popular than the slop manga that nobody reads
why do you guys get so defensive when fans of the japanese (aka original) writing say idw is ooc
>>543211869In some aspects
>>543211869They pale to S3&K
>>543211940That is better embraced by and better made by the west
>>543211873Japanese website.
>>543212004>Yet IDW is more popularNobody is buying the American toilet paper.
>>543211857>>543211921TailsTube only put them as side things also Iizuka said that they are focusing on legendary SEGA characters for the updates.Clearly you are delusional or you are not paying attention.
>>543212156Should I start a Sonic comic? Right now? It would be lazy.
Pretty interesting to see how the fandom in general started to hate Flynn radical haters. Almost everyone is tired of those guys whining and bitching about him.
>>543211921most of the world has no idea who those characters are especially surge.
>>543212156Nobody reads or discusses blade of slop because it's garbage, deal with it.
>>543212210We are embarrassed by the Twitter folks who go out to the actual staff or want him physically hurt, but many anons here still want him fired.
>>543212156>calls idw american toilet paper>using stock prices (israeli toilet paper) as an argument
>>543212169Who cares man, not me.
Comic books are dying.
Blade of Courage would be popular if it was localized.It should show you how bad IDW is outside the anglosphere.
do you guys consider sonic 3 a decent movie
>>543212373This is the real reason why IDW's stock prices are down. Every comic book and manga manufacturer is going out of business. Zoomers don't read.
>>543212461Yes
Why does the simple factual statement of "Sonic is a Japanese franchise" trigger you?
>>543212293Nta but Fuck you, Don't talk for me and use your entitled opinion as a generality.I'm fine with flynn, hes far from being the best, but I'm sure as hell he's way better than pontaff an graff
>>543212461More, I consider it a good movie
>>543212465Then maybe it is a bad idea to push the IDW cast in the games. You should push better characters.
Chill krack you're not japanese
>>543212495>I'm fine with flynn, hes far from being the best, but I'm sure as hell he's way better than pontaff an graffNot even Ian's own fans think this. I won't let you memoryhole the fact that when Ian was getting flack for his Gens rewrites of Amy, someone screenshotted one of the lines Pontaff wrote that went unchanged and told everyone to apologize to Ian. It got thousands of likes.Ian Flynn is such a shit writer that keeping Pontaff lines in is what his fans praise him over, because even they know Ian's dialogue was a downgrade.
>>543212493Because it’s not anymore, not fully. It also doesn’t sell there
>>543212143/a/ is not even top 5 active boards.
>>543212495I said most dumbass.
>>543212620It's fine to use IDW's designs for the games. Other side characters should have more of a presence too. SEGA owns their designs, why should they waste money making up new characters instead of using the ones they already paid for? Any characterization or writing problems is fixed by just making a game with good writing.
>>543212465>and manga manufacturerNice mask slip.
>>543212659Colors has a better story than Frontiers.
>>543212681SoJ/Sonic Team still has the final say on the actual franchise lol. Them allowing Americans to make advertisements for the real games doesn't make it not Japanese.
>>543212620Strange complaint when both are shilled nowadays, if blitz datamine is real, even the freedom fighters are gonna be shilled, pretty sketchy if you ask me, specially talking about how rovio works.
>>543212736IDW fans would freak if the characters they loved were rebooted in the games especially if they would get the (likely) new back stories.
>>543212648Yes I am.
Game Freak literally lets Westerners make designs for their Pokémon games. We aren't there yet.
Wait how many of you want the freedom fighters to be in the games?
>>543213018None of us, it's 2025 not 2015.
>>543212808The games aren’t the only things in the franchise. The movies are the reason Sonic got a second wind after the disaster of Forces (and the general disaster of the games at large starting with 06)
Do they look like they could be the child of the conductor and his wife?
>>543212836No one with half a brain really thinks the freedom fighters are gonna make it. And I say this as an actual archie fan.
>>543213002They work directly for Gamefreak not contracted freelancers by TPC USA (what most of the social media content creators and Flynn)
>>543212683Japanese and east asian culture in general is spread out across several different boards, including this one. Ever check the catalog? /vg/ is the fastest board on 4chan right now, and the most active threads on /vg/ are all anime-styled/Japanese/Chinese/weeaboo stuff.
>>543213071There is more evidence pointing to them being in than anyone from IDW being in Crossworlds.
>>543205953>"Year of Silver">Only three games he starred in almost 20 years ago>One is considered the worst Sonic game in the franchise's history.>The other two are PSP games that were never released in Japan.Lol.
>>543213071Some designs like nicole or antonie could come back. The funniest outcome is that we see some reboot archie characters but none of the actual FF besides Nicole.The nuclear outcome is nicole getting into the games as a schizo who brings up all the time she's spent with sonic and adventures they had with the FF, and is dismissed as a crazy delusional AI
>>543212767Were talking main console or the canon storyline that is actually colors ds?
>Game Freak>Sonic TeamWhy are japs so bad at making games?Why can't make masterpieces like Deus Ex?
>>543213058The games are the core of the franchise. Sega is a Japanese video game company. All spinoff media like the shows, comics, and movies are made to sell the games.
>>543213169Did you have a point to make or are you just being an upset tranny for no reason?
>>543213065>theygo back
SOJ doesn't deserve to be defended
>>543213269And yet they’re still the shittiest medium
Classic 4chan if it was written by Ian>Gotta post a .gif. Maybe one day I'll be able to post videos, heh, might have to practice with a special file type.
>>543213018I like the freedom fighters but I do not want any of them to ever appear in a Sonic game.
SOJ created Sonic, show some respect.
Having meltdowns over people hating Ian are symptoms of desperation and fear.
>>543213419No, I'm pretty sure the comics are worse.
SOJ also allowed 06 and Forces
>>543213436They’re also the reason he became the butt of jokes for years, until paramount of all things bailed them out
>>543213487>SOJ also allowed 06>allowedDumbass, they're the reason it came out like that.
>>543213428Maria needs spankings.
Anti-SoJfags are unironically racist colonizers who believe they're entitled to taking things other cultures created
00s kiddies get the rope
>>543213071I would be fine if all of them have their updated archie desings that actually look like sonic characters.People shit on idw, but tangle is already in the game, while we already know lanolin model for the game was one of the first leaked models on the datamine.
>>543213471Only when you talk about the actual good games from over 20+ years ago. 06 and on? Give me the comics
>>543213568Let's be real, Sonic is a product of Western culture. I'm not gonna make a game about a ninja and then say this comes from my "culture".
>>543213567Maria needs to spank Shadow for attempting mass genocide
I prefer the comics over the games and the completely unpopular manga
>sonic>cultureKys
>>543212114Nah
>>543213185Main console.
This is what caused the meltdown on Sonic Twitter
>>543213710Yes
>>543213669Maria needs to be paddled for telling Shadow to genocide the planet.
>>543213679You probably wanted Archie to be canon then.
>>543213683Yes. Sonic is cultured. Cope and seethe.
>>543213814Yeah, the games are shit.
>>543209348Go to fucking bed Richmunk.
>>543213649Sonic wasn't only meant for you, stop being so greedy. Sonic 1 would have flopped if they took American advice, Westies at Sega said Sonic's character design was unsalvageable.
>>543213768If he was wrong they wouldn't be this upset.
>shitter screenshot Jannies please do something.
>>543213865I hate Archie. Actual Sonic fans don't like Ian. This is just fact.
>Pokemon literally let western artists make new Pokémon designs.>the last two proffesors were made by someone from the west.>toby fox literally made music for Pokémon, and is so admired for his work, even masahiro sakurai invited him to dine with him and other gaming developers and producers legends.>but if sonic does it is sacrilegeRadical weaboos can be really extreme on things, specially if they are sonic fans.
>>543213891These people still get overwhelmingly angry at the existence of a Sonic community on 4chan having actual discussions about the franchise.
>>543213002I haven't seriously kept up with Pokémon in years, but last I knew it was only James Turner, who has lived and worked in Japan and the Pokémon series for many years before he even got to Game Freak. And Toby Fox, but he does music.
>>543209557>Flynnfag does the typical dance of blaming someone else.Like clockwork.
>>543213967I am not against westerners to work on Sonic games but they should really have to prove themselves. That is currently not the case.
>>543209557>while Evan's quietly getting more power and influenceNo, she isn't.
>>543214045Mania
>>543213967maybe it wouldn't be such a problem if that western content was good and western artists/writers weren't ideologically captured obnoxious bluesky cuck trannies who want to show porn to children and engage in fan drama. just a thought!
>>543213625It's almost insane that ALL of the good games are from the start of the franchise to the rough midpoint and a miracle that Sonic survived to this point to keep making more games that live in the shadow of the better half
Reminder that Ian himself admitted that his "fans" don't actually care about him as a writer beyond just giving them Sonic. Anything else he makes? Nobody cares. He is the "spoon" not the "soup" as he described it.
>>543214018Because Ian flynn killed my grandma!!
>>543214080She is a Sega employee.
>>543214138Evan won then.
>>543214105It’s because of the side media (shows comics and recently movies)
>>543214138Good for her. Doesn't change what I said.
>>543211035Barnes is trying to act nice for PR. You can tell by his takes alone that he does not respect Ian's writing.
>>543210812So in your hypothetical scenario, Maekawa becomes as repetitive and dull as Flynn who has written for this series for two decades now. You want the 2000s team, not just Maekawa.
>>543213967Wasn't the ending credit songs of a game was made by Ed sheeran too?
>>543214138Being an intern is gaining "power and influence"? Is the company's custodian controlling the franchise?
>>543214210Don't project your own opinion onto Barnes, please.
>>543214045>>543214092Christian whitehead proves both of you wrong entirely.But people like to ignore him for some reason, I guess people are just busy shitting on flynn and Evan nowadays.
I can tell who that Evanfag is because he always uses Reddit spacing when he does his little copypaste routine about Evan "gaining power and influence". He's posted about this multiple times now, and you all feed him (You)s every single time.
>>543214285She is not an intern. She is the lead lore team artist.
>>543213876You can stop posting that already. Sonic is literally designed with Western design philosophies, from his name to his character design. You can piss and screech as much as you want but nothing will ever change that.
>>543214376Sonic Mania is more of a contracted game than developed by SEGA directly.
>>543214327He outright said that IDW needs to reach Blade of Courage 's level of quality
>>543214327Maybe Barnes shouldn't be posting takes that completely go against how Ian writes the series.
>>543214327barnes doesn't deserve respect
>>543214105Sonic Colors and Sonic Generations are better 3D games than SA1 and SA2 and Mania and Mania Plus shit all over the Classics so what do you mean? Even the side media is better, Sonic All Stars Racing and Transformed kill any Sonic spinoffs from the early days.
>>543212659I don't even know what exactly are you trying to prove with this anecdote of yours.
>>543214460The topic was western people working on a sonic game, not being direct workers for sega.
>>543214381Do you think a freelancer has much control over the franchise? Puh-leaze
>>543214405>artistAnd drawing pictures makes her the next Iizuka?Man, I can tell none of you ever had a job. You think when someone is hired at Sega that they get soft-CEO status.
>>543214624Do you know how to read?
>the terrible year of tails>The ambivalent year of Amy>The nonsensical year of knuckles >The sauceless year of silver >The boring year of blaze>The radical year of Robotnik>The cute year of cream>The mediocre year of mighty>The hype year of HooliganI hope Sega makes the right decisions.
>>543214434Sonic was designed with Western philosophies from the perspective of Japanese people lol. Sonic is a Japanese franchise, and the person who made the franchise himself has said it wasn't just intended for you. It says Sonic is Japanese in the very first sentence on Wikipedia. Archie isn't coming back btw.
>>543214606>>543214632Right she will be the next Kawamura still bad.
You can tell Sonic Team stopped caring about quality from the fact that they’re still using the same stale musty 3D models from 15 years ago that no one likes
Year of Metal.
Krack is losing badly
>>543213568Oh, so now you people are playing the race card. You remind me of this dumbass I knew who wanted to blame xenophobia for why the Japanese written games were baddly received until Flynn; making up random nonsense. Fuck you.
>>543214762The fat fuck is using this place to cope since her ass got banned from twitter
>>543213967>toby fox games became so popular, he even made it into smash bros>sakurai even invited him to his house just to playMan, toby fox is living the dream, just because he made good bootleg versions of earthbound, kinda crazy if you think about it.
>>543214762Losing what
>>543213768It's very charitable of Barnes to say is a teenager who is causing this mess, when a lot of the worse twitter users in this community are grown ass adults in their 20s, 30 and some in their 40s.
>>543213967Those people like Pokemon for what it is. Sonic gets people who either hate him, fueled purely by headcanon and fanfiction, or confuses him with another version of him like Archie.
>>543214914I want to torture this creature to death.
>>543213965I said go to fucking bed Richmunk with your "actual fans" nonsense. I'm sick of your diaper's crap.
>>543214792Okay, racist colonizer. You need white people to take popular media away from non-whites. Luckily that won't happen because Sonic is and always will be under the control of the Japanese, because it's their franchise. Your comics don't matter.
>>543214950I will not let you
>say Frontiers is an amazing game>post reviewer's bad score and clown on it for being a bad opinion>praised for promoting positivity, get friends, get bitches, promoted to moderator>say Frontiers is a shit game>post reviewer's good score and clown on it for being a bad opinion>get called an asshole for it, get kicked out>"it's not your opinion, it's how you express it">look at these two hypothetical scenarios>literally cannot comprehend how they're different at allWhy is it like this? What happened to when it was still ok to be a Sonic fan and fucking hate Sonic?
>>543215023I do not require consent.
>>543214123You're literally describing many creators who barely get any attention outside their most popular work, Slashy. This is not the own you think this is, as Yuji Naka and Sonic Team staff have no audience in their non-Sonic work.
Sonic games literally stole from western culture. If anything the japs are the colonizers.
>>543214996Actual Sonic fans don't like Ian. He doesn't know basic things about Sonic. Cope.
>>543215091I do not tolerate bullies
>>543214949The thing is the sonic fandom is segmented into different ninches and no one wants to be clear or being agreed on what the fuck they want.This fandom is legendary too for being a bunch of whiny bitches since the adventure era.
>>543215094
>>543214586>Sonic Colors and Sonic Generations are better 3D gamesI will not read your post further because you are a dishonest liar
>>543215104You know I'm a different anon, right?
>>543206897I think this highlights the biggest problem with the comics for me. Silver can time travel and prevent Whisper's entire backstory.The stakes in the games are high, ridiculously so. To the point a character time traveling is seen as mundane.The abilities of the game cast trivialize the plight of the comic cast. If the comic were to actually focus on the game characters, every problem would be solved instantly.This leaves the comic trying to focus on the small characters to deal with small problems. Which is lame compared to the world ending plots in the games.If the comics could focus on big problems, and the comics characters get pushed back to their supporting role, the comic might be able to focus on big characters doing cool things.But over and over, it seems the writers are incapable of that simple task. They're too attached to their OCs.
>>543215215The intolerant aren't welcome in my space.
>>543215112Sonic?Japanese. You?Coping.Archie?Dead.
>>543214808She got banned again? How did she piss the Sonic twitter community now?
>>543215327By existing
>>543215306How a literally Blade Runner level (Scrap Brain Zone) or the Death Egg are jap culture?
>>543215291The wicked aren’t welcome in the pearly gates
>>543215230Well, that's part of the issue with IDW. The writers care too much about emotions and trying to inject furry drama. In reality the Sonic cast would either lack the time to consider these things or could just solve them instantly. That's part of why the 'Sonic spares Eggman' debacle was nonsensical. This isn't the kind of franchise to be posing those questions or trying to construct moral quandaries. The entire ethos of the franchise is basically going with the flow and the IDW characters keep trying to resist the flow. Causing needless friction.
>>543215327
>>543215227And you're as stupid as Slashy is, you moronic ape. I rather hear you dumbasses say "Drogune has no audience" than bring up "Dur dur Flynn is not popular outside Sonic" as if that was relevant to this thread.
>>543215404Speak English.
>>543215454I see no pearly gates here. Only sinners trapped in purgatory.
>>543213018I like archie, and I would be happy if they can make it, but the freedom fighters getting revived can have extreme consequences if they are released.Sally acorn is better dead to be honest, she has the weirdest fans, even by this fandom standards.
>>543215478"I don't feel like talking to Sonic fans"I can't wait for the day she drops the bucket and becomes nothing but a bad memory. Either that or she becomes the trophy wife of a charlatan selling bibles to a bunch of morons in America.
>>543215478lol
>>543215485How hard is it for you to just admit Ian is not a good writer? All these deflections pointing fingers at other people and whataboutism.
>Sonic Eggman killed my entire family...>HE DESERVES A SECOND CHANCE
>>543215595You see what you have wrought upon yourself
>>543215623Look man, her VA gave me the closest thing to a boner a 5 year old could get at that age.
Just give up krack, nobody, literally no one likes you, you are like an annoying mosquito, shoosh whale
>>543215578Answer the question
>>543215478Someone redpill me with this crack gal, the same with they one they cal duo fag.Both seem to like to start shit here, but why.
Why are we mocking Flynn haters on Twitter when /sthg/ is basically the BumblekastTruth?
>>543215640I like her because she pisses off the worst people here by existingLike youTalk about Sonic
>>543215740You guys keep trying to get me to hate her for some reason and she sounds based
Duofag trying way too hard to derail the threads today.
>proving Barnes rightKek
>>543215740Doesn't Krack has the largest followerbase of anyone here
>>543214698>The maker said he made it for Japs too!>You like archie!>It's western from a Japanese perspective!>I-It's on wikipedia!Sonic is straight up a Western style cartoon character copied by Japanese people. Cope, seethe, dilate.
>>543215713Because your entire nonsense was appealing to popularity. "Ian Flynn non-Sonic work has no audience, therefore he isn't a good writer". It's a moronic take I expect from Slashy hate-boner towards the man. If you want me to talk about his work, talk about his fucking work in Sonic rather than changing the topic. Are we talking of Sonic writing, or are we going to talk about Minecraft and Megaman comics that don't belong here?Now fuck off.
>>543215768Because literally every normalfag In this fandom started to get tired of actual schizos, who just hate flynn just because.This place opinion is worthless as a whole, don't mind it.
>>543215848Is he the one seething so hard over Woefag?
>>543215924lolno, more than half of this general hates her and 95% of the Sonic communities don't want her
>>543215924>Doesn't Krack has the largest followerbase of anyone hereLettuce is several times bigger
>>5432152253D Sonic* games. SA1 and SA2 are like 1/5th Sonic games.
>>543215732This world is a projection of my desires. What I wish to inflict upon others truly belongs.
>>543215924How many of them are real people?
>>543216009I mean this place has more involved criticisms of Flynn but it seems weird to celebrate people only dumber than us but with the same opinions getting mocked
10 years ago you fuckers were praising Ian as the best thing to happen to the franchise, doing comic marathons and doing Q&A sessions with him here and shit. Now you think he's a fucking plague, even though his writing style has not changed a bit since the Archie days.Ya'll are some fake, flip-floppy motherfuckers.
>>543216063>3DNo.
>>543216009>who just hate flynn just because.
>This place opinion is worthless as a whole, don't mind it.Please help me I am Indian!!!
>>543216009Yes but why are people HERE celebrating it?
>>543215721>"Wow. I don't care. He's my favourite source of entertainment."
>>543216009>>543216113Generalization fallacy. We are not a fucking hivemind, you moronic ape. Don't strawman us.
>>543215756Duofag shills his AI models here and once tried to get artists to make a fangame from his gens. After everyone shat on him, he spent 8 hours a day, everyday, stirring shit, spamming, and causing senseless drama over the artists who he thinks wronged him. He's been at it for well over a year now and he's becomes exceedingly pathetic at it.
>>543216123>SonicNah.
>>543216113Do you really think the people who were here 10 years ago bootlicking Ian are still here right now? Almost all of them have left.
>>543216068This world you experience exists outside of reality, and is merely a construct within a demented mind unfit to assimilate with those around it
>>543216238Sonic Colors is not a 3D Sonic game.
So we agree jpfags were a mistake?
>>543216208>We are not a fucking hivemindAnd yet you parrot each other's opinions anyway because le board culture.>>543216245Yes, yes I do. I think a LOT of you were there 10 years ago.
>>543216148She makes good points though.
>>543216294If they hadn't been bit, their peter parker would have lived.
>>54321605495% of sonic communities suck so that's more of a compliment than an insult
>>543215967Ian admitted it himself, so your entire defense is null. Keep seething.
>>543216148you're posting a literal psycho babbler, so I don't know what you're expecting me to reply.
>>543216148>VertekinsOh, the pretentious disabled woman. Fuck off.
Why are we praising Flynn haters getting attacked on Twitter?>>543216380She acts like Sparky.
>jpfags>windfagsyou mean sonic fans?comictards are hilarious
>>543216181This is the funniest shit I've seen in quite some time.>>543216287SA1 is a fishing simulator.
>>543216260If the world I experience is outside of reality then I must bring reality into my world. There are many methods to accomplish such feats. Transforming thoughts into power...
>>543216403She is almost as obnoxious as him.
>>543216425Mania is not Sonic?
>>543216471Sparky is beloved here
>>543216378>>543216380Why do you hate Vertekins lol? Lemme guess, you think Windii is a good person
>jpfags>Sonic fanslollmao even
>>543216351ok krack keep coping
>>543216492Mania is just a romhack compilation.
>>543216497Yeah Windii hates Sonic fans now.
>>543216440>"M-Masaka...Sonic's obsession with loop-de-loops and bottomless pits have twisted him into the ultimate nightmare..."
>>543216447Your ambition will be your undoing. You know not the the full extent of the powers of which you speak
>>543216538Still one the highest rated sonic games
None of you care about SAGE or the Sonic Hacking contest
I can tell that one bluesky faggot who worships idw and brings up namefags constantly is here, i can smell him
>>543216497I didn't bring up Windii at all, you deranged moron.
>>543216208>were not a fucking hive mind>post the most basic shit opinions than can be read on literary every part of the internet.I don't know what to expect form this place anymore.Everyone here genuinely think they are fucking special for saying the same shit over and over again, on both sides.
>>543216605Sold less than Superstars.
>>543215924kek she got banned for botting her own follows, amazing.
Are mammals objectively better in Sonic's world?
Drogune has virtually no audience
>>543216598I won't know until I achieve that untold power.
>>543216606I don't care about pozzed groomers, no.
>>543216663Source?
>check the Japanese posters>they’re rejecting the recompiles because they’re fan works which makes them “irrelevant” >a bunch are saying Crossworlds got boring fast because of items being all blue shells, and that they should have made Riders>a few are lamenting the death of Mario Sonic Olympics since this means neither will ever be in a game together again as they found out the Olympic contract is for merchandise only>and someone is calling Dream Team Advance 4 which is causing people to argue with him
>>543216589>Rouge: I was not ready for today.
>>543209921ahahahaha...People are using my vid, with the shadream boardAll according to keikaku
>>543216497I don't even know who thw fuck are you talking about.
I think it's actually fair to disrespect people who see "Windfag" as a separate category. It's a sign that they>Prefer the comics over the games>Don't care about authorial intent or themes>Struggled to understand any of the games>Are not well informed on Sonic>Want the characters to be infantilized for what they call "relatable" All around an "anti windfag" is just an insufferable nonfan who insists that their spinoff should be treated as just as valid as the main franchise. This is like if people demanded you treat the english dub of one piece as a legitimate story.
>>543216682>virtuallyHow bout physically?
>>543216787Yes madam I agree.
Mania btfo windfags
>>543216749I made it up because Krack anally raped me and my butt hurts now
>>543216148 The "it's not personal" line is bullshit.Calling him unprofessional, unqualified, biased, and a poor writer is personal. It's an attack on his character and competence, not just his work. The disclaimer is a hollow attempt to seem reasonable after a vicious takedown.
>>543216663Lol really? To be expected from the whale, KWAB
>>543216716Then your soul is forfeit. Pray that others shall pray for you
>>543216227Ok, and crack?
>>543216759>with the shadream boarddamn i didn't even noticei also have saved the cream one saved
She really isn't different than Duo, huh?
>>543216787trvthnvke!!!
top good futurebottom bad futurewe love one piece
>>543216909I do not pray. Nor do they pray for me. Nay...they all pray to me. For I am become God, creator of worlds.
>>543216681Yes. Filthy birds should learn their place
>>543216756Japan may have next to no fans but they’re more based than the people here.
>>543216963Duo...
Are you a real fan?
>>543216937Shadow fangirl who's a bit too outspoken about her right wing beliefs on Twitter.Might post here, might be falseflagged, most likely autistic.
>>543213768Sonic discourse on Twitter is impossible but only because people would rather do retarded passive aggressive dunk posts like the ones above than actually discuss anything
>>543217037I shall indulge this deluded madness no further, prepare to reap what you have sown
>>543217176I am annoyed that if you share a bad take people start trying to frame you as a bad person.
>>543217080I like archie, But this is hilarious, fuck sallyfags in general, no matter which iteration. Maybe fleetway is the only decent one.
>>543217080BASED KORONE
>>543217226I'm guessing you prefer Mina
>>543217080No, they didn't buy the genesis and they are nintendo cocksuckers.They deserve to suffer.
>Krack and Duo are literally one person arguing with itself everyday
>>543217080Where can I see this? Do you have a link?
>>543217228This is a 50 year old Japanese dog.
>>543217221You are a bad person though. You invite people from discord here just to control the narrative.
>>543217080I've always felt like this too when I see those characters, especially Sally
>>543217318Proof?
>>543217271Nah, bunnie is best girl, nicole is second place.Shipperfags can fuck off if sally and amy are involved, I'm one of the original shipping wars veterans survivors. Both are crazy, but sally fans got worse over time.
>>543217301No one bought the Genesis anon
>>543217363What?
What does Shadow smell likes, anyway?
>>543217213Good. I was waiting. It's time to take what belongs to me.
>>543217427You are literally pants-on-head retarded.
>>543217405They don't have proof
>>543217427Westchads did
>>543217161And both are natural enemies? Both are always mentioned on combo here
>>543217363What is the narrative anon?
>>543217470smell a hedgehog irl
>>543217001>Knuckles becoming somewhat of a stoner/hippie in the good future>Tails becoming a psychotic evil scientist in the bad future>Amy becoming a paranoid freak and later on a deranged fortune teller in the bad futureOk I’ll admit it, despite how OOC these are, I still really like them.
>>543205953>>543207168Brace yourself. Amy's special cooking mini game is coming.
>>543217470Gunpowder, a little bit of urine and Maria's rotting corpse.
>>543217505That doesn’t explain why Mario World is more popular than Sonic 1-3 combined.
>>543217470Whatever he anointed himself with last. And the aging smells of everything before that.
>>543217408I wasn't there for those wars, but I understand. I like Sally but I don't like discussing pairings with her.
>>543217139I also have John St John, Lisa Ortiz, & Tracy Yardly
>>543217476You will try
>>543217506Duo likes to associate Krack with artfags to stir shit. As he's programmed to do.
>>543217213>>543217476>a sonicfag and a tailsfag in a mongoloid board managed to pull out a dialogue with way more hype than what we'll ever get in our lifetime from this franchise
>>543217080Only the best games sell in Japan
>>543217563You are the retard here. Mario wasn't Sonic's equal during the early '90s. The popularity of Sonic the Hedgehog catapulted the Sega Genesis ahead in sales, and the Genesis outsold the Super Nintendo 2-to-1 during the 1991 holiday season. By 1992, Sega controlled 65% of the 16-bit console market, and by the end of 1993, Nintendo’s share of the 16-bit market had dropped from 60% in early 1992 to only 37% by the end of 1993.
>>543217674She claims to be friends with drawfags just because she exchanges one or two messages with some, but the fatty has no friends.
>>543217563It wasn't. Mario world sold 20 million copies, Sonic 1 sold 15 million on its own.
>Sonic can't be liked by itself, he has to always be compared to MarioThe Console Wars ended 20 years ago, most young fans have played Sonic in a Nintendo console by now, but apparently that isn't enough.Why are we still here? Just to suffer?
Think you gon fly and get away quick uh uhGive up the emeralds or die I don't love youEchido'na, that's what I'm representing,Never seen a mic-hog spit like a menace
>>543217435This is really cute, a particular anon here hate this ship, but I like it, as cosmo x tails it makes me remember my younger days when I descovered what love was.Innocent puppy love is the best kind of love story.
>>543217769she's right.
Chuckles
>>543217783I don't even think about Mario. The two brands have zero relationship beyond some console war shenanigans in the 90s and the Olympic games.
>>543217783Sega openly invites those comparisons, though. They flat-out said the only reason they haven't properly done a Mario crossover is because Sonic will never be as good as Mario.
>>543217783It wasn't supposed to be this way...
So after years of people lying to themselves that Sonic is improving in Japan we’re now moving onto lying to ourselves that the Genesis was more popular than the SNES?What’s next, 06 was misunderstood? The Dreamcast could have won? Black Knight is actually a deep game?
>>543217836I like them too i think their personalities pair really well.

>>543217783More people know Sonic from the movies, Smash Bros, and Minecraft over the games nowAnd Sonic is likely not going to be in the Smash reboot
I don't know why you think sonic can ever do good in Japan. Japan is enslaved to Nintendo. They will only buy nintendo products.Sonic should pander to the chinese if he wants sales. That's where the world power, cultural output, etc. is all heading towards as the west and japan decline into irrelevancy.
COPE, SHITga BITCH. Nintendo won.
>>543217837inauthentic behavior, nice try krack.
>>543217783Because we lost the console wars. That's literally it. If mario had lost the console wars we'd be talking about him and sonic the same way asking why sonic succeeded when he failed
>>543217470The Twitter Takeovers claimed he smells like lavender, which the fans often incorporate into fanworks. But the Twitter Takeovers aren't meant to be taken seriously. I had imagined something different. Spices, coffee, gunpowder, blood, antiseptic, ozone, dried leaves, chocolate. I don't think he'd smell bad or particularly pungent, he strikes me as someone who has good hygiene.
>>543217783Because deep down they know Mario is better.Stay losing, hedgefags.

This series preaches about the power of friendship. Some of its biggest stans are people with no friends. I think I made myself sad.
Is really hard to admit SOJ did nothing wrong?
>>543218103He’s doing fine in America despite the gaming market dying off due to no kids. But he should be doing well in the fastest growing gaming market.
>>543217783Whatever those faggot millenials think of Sonic, he will always be my Hero.. >>543218083Fuck off mariobros, why don't you just rape me and be done with it
>>543218103Weeaboos are a plague. Anime and manga haven't been good for 10 years either.But nooo you HAVE to pander to japan or else you're le bad. You HAVE to make slop for 2% of the world's population that only they can appreciate.
>>543218203Who else are they to pander to? Pandering to us ruins everything.
>>543218180>But he should be doing well in the fastest growing gaming market.which is not japan i assume
>>543218006>And Sonic is likely not going to be in the Smash rebootHe's literally the only third-party character that was present in all games since his debut, while being one of the two third-party characters that have more than one stage.Sonic is gonna be fine.
It’s mainly sad because last gen was literally the biggest generation of gaming ever in Japan.No other consoles were more impactful on the market and yet Sonic refused to bring his best and try to stand out in the market.Hell majority of the best selling games ever in Japan were released in 2017-Now
>>543218095I'm very sure the artist is only posting a cool experiment Oda did with his manga. Jumping to Sonicsonas of One Piece characters is like the Horse Show community.
There are things you guys say that immediately make it obvious when you're a nonfan! Windchads can always tell when your opinion is completely worthless.
>>543218203>Weeaboos are a plague. Anime website bitch.
ill KILL SHITrio.
>>543218259Japans growing faster than American, which isn’t really growing. The American market has been in decline due to pricing and lack of people buying games.Korea is growing more than America.It’s safe to assume by 2030 America will be 100% of the F2P gatcha market and sports game.
>>543218180People don't realize this but games are a dying medium. Zoomers are NOT buying them, and especially zoomers in japan.Sonic can't ever succeed in japan because the average age of the gamer is something like 35 years old over there. Young people do NOT play games. This is why sonic does not sell in Japan. The older generations are tendies and there is no younger generation of gamers to appeal to.

>>543218373ANIME WEBSITE.
>>543218356The only thing i heard is growing is manga and anime slop because western slop is garbage social therapy for pussies, and aldo the chinese videogames which are capped by the CCP policies of eternal moralfaggotry and state intervention so they hardly pull out any sort of elaborated plot.
>>543218474Actually everything you care about is dying. Literally everything. Nothing is growing or living at all. Yup.

It's been too long since we've talked about Sonic shipping
>>543213768>has a point or not variesThis alone tells me Barnes is trying to play sides so idwfags don’t catch on to how his writing and takes are a walking contradiction to everything Ian does. Throwing bone by putting out the possibility the side against Ian is right, but he has to talk them down like children misbehaving while still giving them what they want. It’s actually extremely easy to con and placate Idwfags. He just needs to defend Ian while he simultaneously pulls the rug from under them with every statement on how he handles Amy, doesn’t want relatability, wants sonic to be more like the manga, etc. He knows what he’s doing
>>543218748
>>543217783But bro did you see the epic open road dunk
>>543217678There are a select few people here that could unironically write Sonic better than those that actually do
>>543217961Silverfags are pussies, he didn't even exist until the franchise was already over the hill
>>543203274>Like Evan Stanley thinking Shadow would escalate the violence of a situation and has no problems killing someone who is not a serious threat.He does this in X toward Cosmo
Essentially, in the west you have two major parts of the sonic fandom: the older fans (30+) who are usually classicfags or archiefags, and the younger fans (<25) who like IDW, the movies, and the newer games.In japan, you don't really have older fans because nintendo won the console war harder there, and there are no young fans to get attached to sonic. So sonic doesn't really have a fandom or anything to sell to. And japanese people are very "trendy", they don't tend to buy something unless it's already popular. It doesn't help that there really isn't a furry fandom there like there is in china/s korea, so they can't even sell to furries.I wouldn't be surprised if south korea and china have larger sonic fandoms than japan too.
>>543218769Sonic is hardlocked into a Sonamy ship.I'm sorry, but Blaze never stood a chance.
The fact Sonic’s best selling game in Japan is a Mario game says a lot h fact Frontiers isn’t even close to the top 10 best selling games in the region is also sad
>>543218841Close, his existence started the descent downhill
>>543218735there are people out there who ship it and i've seen it posted here on /sthg/ before, hence my post

Krack melty
>>543218956Personally, I call Sonic and Mickey Mouse characters Fuzzies. Cause they're small.
>>543218956>furry is one type of artSonic is kemono/furry adjacent as these fandoms derive their art from the same inspirations that sonic did. Sonic does get sales from furries who are very invested in sexualizing the characters.Deal with it. You're a furfag. You want to fuck sonic. You want to ride their animal dicks. It's fine.
>Duofag melty
>>543218021Sega is such a bumblefuck company, sonic would suck around the turn of the millennium regardless
>>543218621In fact unlike americans there is never a real cultural dialogue, it's why america managed to spread cultural influence but the chinese struggle with.Back during the rise of the chinese communist party they also managed to deport their own creatives and fuck up the development of a movie industry, all because the guys animated a folklore story where a monkey rebels against the heaven. I think the chinese, like japanese, have a great potential capped by their own government.
>>543205953Letting the silverfag make the threadShame on you /sthg/
>>543218956This pic amazingly describes the reasons why a lot of people in general hate sally.She's basically a classic western furry.Sonic characters are a totally different label of animals (technically furry, but not like western furries at all)
>>543218956Is he an anthropomorfic animal? Then he is a furry. The design may vary, but at the end of the day, an animal that walks on two legs and talks like a person is a furry.
>>543219054Erm, I'm still on the fence about them having animal gentilia. Mostly cause of birds.
If you masturbate to Tails you are a furnigger
>>543217863No, they said it's because Nintendo wouldn't allow it.
Do Sonic characters still categorize prehistoric time as "B.C"?
>>543219194You forgot faggot and pedophile.Plus, shit taste.
Japan lost
>>543218956Sorry anon, Sonic is furry. The sooner you accept that, the fewer therapy sessions you'll need to go to.
>>543218267>Green Hill AND Windy HillLame stupid picks lol
>>543219070The chinese communists were ultimately right though, it kneecapped their culture in the short term but it was necessary to realign their society after the century of humiliation and the fall of the soviet empire. Xi Jiping will unironically be seen as one of the greatest leaders of our time by historians simply because china is the only country that's actually improving their lives as the years go by now. Every other society is stagnating, but china genuinely is becoming a better place to live with each year.You can't say china struggles to spread cultural influence now when the biggest gacha games are all chinese, have aspects of chinese and communist culture, etc.
>>543219240No, the use Before Jesus Christ, Son of God and Saviour of the Human Race, Amen
>>543219230They have never said that.
>>543218956Yuck, western generic furries disgust me, at least kemonos are cute, I dislike how literally everything needs so be sexualized with western furries.
America lost. UK won.
>>543219338>labubus>tiktok>genshin impact>hollywood panders to the chinese nowMany people don't realize this but we are already living in the beginning of the chinese millennia.Yes, millennia and not century.
>>543218726Sonic is a Japanese mascot tho. He is the mascot of a Japanese company with in HQ in Tokyo Japan and they have the final say. Whether or not it sells well is completely irrelevant, a country doesn't own something just because they buy the product more. Unless you think China and India deserve credit for the internet because those nations buy internet shit more than we do.
>>543219451*gets stabbed
I told you, krack is the Shitria spammer. When she was gone, absolutely nobody spammed Shadria.
>>543218649Sure, homo
>>543218956I think the biggest point of disgust towards western furries is that snout. Pulchra looks great and is mostly just a fuzzy anime girl with a slightly extended maw.
>>543219547Go wank somewhere else anon.
>>543218970BITCH WHAT IS THIS LOW RESOLUTION GARBAGE?

>>543218021Fuck off, SA2 is great.
Do mobians have human genitalia or animal genitalia?
How does jap cock in your mouth taste like?
If Sonic falls apart I'll go down with the ship...
>>543219581Kemonos in general have a pretty cute and nice aesthethic compared to western furries.Western furries tend to be just human bodies plastered with a animal heads, with the animal legs anatomy from time to time. True about the massive snouts being a factor too.
>>543219240Yes, because Jesus Christ exists in-universe.
>>543219660Specialized retractable genetilia that is specifically compatible with humansSee:>sonic adventure >sonic OVA

I have Sonic Team fatigue
Imagine being an anti-Silver terrorist.
>>543219581I don't think the snouts are always bad but I think the problem is the proportions and cartoonish look of them. Western furries are still very trapped in the 1980s and look like ancient cartoons. Compare this to the furries in something like arknights

Ok but maid marian makes my pee pee hard
>>543219338>>543219504>gacha slop and social media slopmeanwhile americans pulled out decades of content that changed cultures around the world, china can't do that.

>>543219826I dont know why people hate it, is actually pretty cute.I like when the fandom actually despict both as having a sibling like bond, but still have romantic connotations.People getting mad as if they were real sibling baffles me a little.
>>543212156>0.42Damn is it time to buy the dip?
Could you imagine if Kishimoto was defended by saying that his games are not as bad as 06?
>>543219968>america pulled out decades of contentUltimately that won't even matter in the end because america imploded due to capitalism allowing corporations to consume and assimilate everything. Americans don't even believe they landed on the moon anymore. They are so propagandized that they think their nation's greatest accomplishment and only space race W over the soviets was a hoax.In a decade I doubt americans will even know any of the great works of art that their culture made. All of it will be locked away in corporate vaults as the internet becomes censored completely in the name of corporate profit. Americans already can't name their greatest artists, and gen alpha is never going to watch shit like kubrick or citizen kane.

" to annoy him because she likes to play with knuckles' balls.the only character that smells bad without any doubt is sticks

Elias is hot and I wish he was real so I could hug him (even though he's a racist mobian)
>>543220471He's made games with worse aesthetics and worse gameplay. Nothing else in this series gets quite as awful as Classic Sonic in Forces. I don't even hate his games, he's made some good stuff too, but come on.
If you call it Fleetway instead of StC you are a non fan
>>543220545China is just arresting terrorists expressing murderous anti-chinese sentiment.
>>543220405America had and still has an anti-enstablishment zeitgeist, that was so powerful it managed to spread outside. It worked both to promote both americanism and counter-culture. China will never get that as long the administration is still so rigid.
>>543220223I need the second vertical image on the left row,is pretty cute maria giving shadow a kiss on the cheek.
Bro i just want to know who my new master is
In Archie, Sally Acorn's older brother Elias is a Monoarchist, he does not believe in democracy.. He believes in tradition.In this continuity, Tails has parents. Tails's parents start a rebellion in the name of democracy. This leads to a battle between Tails's father and Sally's brother. Sally appears late in the arc and forces a comrpromise between democracy and monarchy.This eventually leads to Ixis Naugus (A villainous wizard) being voted into power, as Tails's mother still has spite for Elias.Nicole is stuck in exile under these circumstances, and the Freedom Fighters (Sonic's allies in this cnanon) are increasingly handicapped and hampered until Antoine is injured. With their numbers dwindling, Sally and Sonic are under equipped to take on Eggman by themselves, and Eggman turns Sally into a machine. Naugus is sworn into power and cures Bunnie Rabbot of her robotic transformation.Silver eventually manages to kill Sally as the world is collapsing. Then everything is reset into an alternate universe that is closer to a cross between the games and Sonic Satam.
>>543220485>Arknights sells more though so by this general's standards, its the better series.I don't know how being more rentable have to do with aesthetics but all right I guess.
>>54322010506 it's a good game ruined by rushed development Modern game sonic are bad games ruined to the core06>anything modern
>>543220746Damn, was Elias right?
>>543220746As much as i like tails i would stand with the acorns. The prowers unironically waited for peace to undermine the kingdom and make it weak.
>>543220746Why are you bringing archie lore?
>>543220846Agreed. Sally was dumb to turn the kingdom into a Republic and the decision fucked with everyone for the rest of the comic's run.
>YOU HAVE TO ACCEPT HIM BECAUSE HE IS BETTER THAN THE PREVIOUS GUY OKAY?
>>543220406You said you hate big tits, not the other anon, faggot
>>543220934Yeah, but she's shapely.
>>543220948but pontac and graff were better writers than ian flynn
>>543220165That's funny because it's also true.
>>543220746People shit on the council of acorn, but boy those guys were guys you loved to hate, specially Hamlin pig.If lanolin tried to be what Hamlin was, she would have been liked more even if she was a hardass.Hamlin was right about sonic doing shit with no consequences, when in archie he was directly tied with the king.
Ian lives in poverty just to write sonic comics, and you still hate him
>>543220964>anon doesn't know what projecting meansIs ok anon, have a hug.
>>543220746So Tails's parents didn't listen to Elias and now they are all dead
>>543221126Idk, his apartment got doxxed once and looked pretty nice.
>>543220223Oh btw, the last 8 aren't Duos
>>543221126Writers and Artists in general live in poverty. That's been the case for centuries and why people are discouraged from doing it full time.
imagine if archieshit didn't die and they continued writing about in-universe political discourse in today's culture
>>543220837Democracy appears to be mostly a sham and is always destined to devolve into violent totalitarianism for the poors and an unbeatable oligarchy for the elites. Nearly every other ideology is better. Communism is better, monarchism is better, anarchy is better, libertarianism is better, etc.Perhaps there's a way for democracy to overcome its flaws, but I haven't seen it yet. Elias was literally right. They had a benevolent monarchy that respected the freedoms and wellbeings of its citizens and replaced it with mob rule that predictably collapsed.Princess Blaze would never.
>>543221210People doxxed him just for their sonic autism? This fandom can be really retarded and radical.Is just a videgame guys, a coop videogame, but a videogame in the end.

>>543221581This makes sense because Hitler is the will of the people
>>543221640Obviously not because he lost. The will of the people stood with communists and they crushed fascism. Fascists preach might makes right and then lose every single time, and in order to correct this contradiction they accuse their opponents of cheating somehow, as if there is an incorrect form of "might" or "victory"Laughable.
>>543221192You're the one who said you don't like big tits, that means you're gay. "Projection" is your deflection cope, anon.
LOL
>>543221732>The will of the people stood with communists and they crushed fascism.The current state of Mother Russo, the birthplace of commie nonsense, says otherwise.
>>543221784Wow, we really owned those jpfags with our movie slop with content like this westbros!
>>543221516On another time I would have argued with you, but learning geopolitics, economics and history, while learning literally everythig is just a chess game, cheated by long nosed greedy people makes me realize how fucked up the world is, and maybe if you don't count the humanists atrocities, you're actually right, the wrong people was the one who wrote the history books.
>>543220459ok
>>543221784
>>543221581So is communism, it's literal mob rule spreading through the streets. And fascism in italy never took place with democracy.Monarchy performs better, you get to raise someone to rule a nation instead of picking a random businessman.
>>543221858You mean russia, the country that will win the ukraine war and defeat NATO because america has imploded?It's stupid to act tough when the communists are winning, anon.

>>543222026>posting an archie image>didn't even tried to read the actual book.Sally was never a lesbian, nor nicole.That was mostly fandom coping for a tweet to win brownie woke points.As true as sally loosing her virginity to Geoffrey and rotor having a boner for gay elders.

>>543222192>krack is transI believe it.
>>543222072>All societies are mob rule because if a critical mass of people dislike the governmentI don't think so, mob rule means giving weight at the ignorant masses to pass certain laws that may be harmful for everyone, and let's add to that terrorist cells love to astroturf the will of "the people". Like prower did, he got a bunch of angry mobs and fucked up the reign.Not even in the libertarian/classical liberal sense mass demicracy is accepted, because it crushes the individual and ita ability to disagree and prove the majority is wrong.
Moviedow is canon
