In the West, Shadow wins every Sonic x Shadow fight, but in the East Sonic has the advantageWhy is that
>>546663143Thank you
Sheep
Happy 20th anniversary!
>>546663450I'm so tired of these two fighting. It has been 24 fucking years.

>>546663450CHADow always defeats SHITnic though regardless of region.
>>546663595He was literally designed to fight Sonic. Are you also sick of Sonic fighting Eggman?
Douge
>>546663745
>>546663990Eggman has variety. Different machines, different plans, etc.Shadow just fights Sonic because he's dumb as fuck.
>>546663518Shockwave
>>546662316>no one askedPeople did ask.>ichirukiThis doesn't even have to be shipping. I am telling you exactly what Sonic and Blaze are about and their lore using primary sources.>holes poked in anythingYou haven't poked holes in shit. Blaze is Sonic's negative counterpart (just like Eggman Nega is to Eggman) as described by her creator. The Chaos Emeralds and Sol Emeralds are described verbatim like the north and south pole of a magnet. They shake hands as a sign of respect for each others' lifestyles as opposed to Sonic and Knuckles who try and beat each other up over it. None of this should be controversial unless you hate Sonaze.
>>546664103>CHADow fooling SHITnicHe won.
>>546663490You're welcome!
>>546663156Ultimate Wifeform
who's the most raped character in the franchise
>>546664710Surge
>>546664710Sonic
>>546664263Why is the concept of dualism so hated here? Is it really because shipping is such a prevalent aspect of fandom and some can't help but see things with that lens?This has been the case for Eggman, Knuckles, Shadow, and Blaze. Hell, most characters have some aspect of it because Sonic is meant to be that missing piece that highlights their respective qualities. It's also why the SSS trio doesn't really work for me.
>>546663247That's what that dumbass nigga gets for making a pedo thread.

Easiest to hardest characters to fuck up (Controversy Scale):Silver (most controversial)SonicShadowAmyBlazeTails=KnucklesRougeThe Chaotix (least controversial)
>>546664229Sheepwave
>>546663143>I remember...>I remember...>That you should fuck Silver, Blaze!
Netflix or Disney Plus
>>546665024>Is it really because shipping is such a prevalent aspect of fandom and some can't help but see things with that lens? That's a big part of it. Autism prevents people from understanding the social differences between friendships and romances, and the Sonic fandom is rife with these kinds of people
>>546664263That is literally nothing interesting about this shit, the dynamic was stolen from Sonic Shadow but more lazy, and stolen from Sonic and Knuckles but more boring
>>546664710Literally? Scourge, in prison, multiple times.Figuratively? Silver, in official media, almost every time.>>546665771Netflix
It would be a damn shame is someone started shitting up this fake early thread or started posting content that would force the jannies to wipe it. A damn shame.
>>546664263Ichirukifags use primary sources too. What is your point? I don't care about your autistic obsession with north pole magnets and signs and lifestyles and hand holding and paralluls or anniversaries or merry fucking christmas or whatever the fuck, open a window for god's sake. I did more than poke holes, and ran your ship through the gutter, you could easily say the Sol Emeralds relate Blaze to any character she has a relationship with, you even said it somehow has something to do with her mentoring Marine, yet you won't accept that with Silver because??? These discussions get us nowhere because all you care about is muh symbolism and you use canon interactions and official statements to say absolutely fuck all.Anyway happy ship fodder day you megasperg.
>>546664710 Surely there someone from Archie that's been canonically raped?
>>546665771Netflix
The Restoration but written like Dispatch
>>546663143That small ass arc was so blatantly forced because they forgot about Blaze for the entire run and when they remembered her they wanted somehow to include her more then her usual 4 panels, seriously this whole 'Sonic teleporting to the sol dimension with amnesia could be removed and nothing would change.
>>546663450This was a draw and Shadiw ultimately got what he wanted
>>546666078Nta but Silver and Blaze's relationship is even more so based in symbolism.
>>546665837>Autism prevents people from understanding the social differences between friendships and romancesTo be fair to them, almost every social interaction has some media depicting it in a romantic light. Romance tropes are pretty crazy for that.
>>546666265I'm still mad about it. I wanted an amnesiac sonic so badly, it could have been so interesting.
Silver loves choco women
>>546665024>is it because shipping?That and Sonic fans are media illiterate.>it's also why the SSS trio doesn't really work for meYeah they took a dichotomy and turned it into a trichotomy by forcing Silver to be what Sonic and Shadow aren't without establishing why Silver should thematically or narratively be a part of it in the first place. Like Shadow is a hedgehog because his entire arc and rivalry with Sonic ("faker") is them vying for the title of the Ultimate Lifeform and the peak of their rivalry is about using Chaos Control which Sonic succeeds Shadow in. Silver gets to he a hedgehog with Chaos powers just because they wanted a new S-named hedgehog adjacent ro Sonic and Shadow. Outside of the past/ present/ future or dark/ neutral/ light motifs Silver has nothing to do with them. So fucking dumb.
>>546666145There is a chapter where scourge pretends to be Sonic to have sex with Bunnie. Penders confirmed that's exactly what they did. This is rape by deception. Sex under false pretenses. Bunnie Rabbot was canonically a rape victim until the super genesis wave rewrote her history and erased Scourge from existence. The second rape victim is Chuck Thorndyke. Assuming his suitor was not the same age as him, he was a maximum of 13 years old when his son, nelson Thorndyke, was born. We know that Nelson is the self made billionaire, not Chuck, despite Chuck seemingly being smarter than Nelson. It appears that Chuck spent his entire youth preoccupied. So 1.5 rape victims.
>>546664119>Shadow just fights Sonic because he's dumb as fuck.Hes supposed to be the ultimate lifeform thus sonics strongest rival and narrative wise Shadow has to test himself his title by fighting the strongest beings in the series including Sonic himself to keep living up to his rep and concept.
I'm only here for blobian ass
>>546665024>Why is the concept of dualism so hated here? Is it really because shipping is such a prevalent aspect of fandom and some can't help but see things with that lens?Because there's nothing to it but shipping, the relationship is so bland (i respect you because you are copy-pasted me) you can easily compare it to Sonic and Cream.
>>546666558>Chaos Control which Sonic succeeds Shadow inShadow is better than Sonic at using chaos control and chaos power generally tho.
>>546666145Lancelot from Sonic and the Black Knight has his son, Galahad (Silver) present. Galahad is only ever born in arthurian legend when Lancelot is raped by Elaine who was pretending to be someone else while Lancelot was drunk. Rape by deception like Bunnie.
>>546666801"look at my original characters" ahh pic
>>546663595Shadow fighting anything > Sonic fighting anything. Shadow makes Sonic interesting when they fight together or against each other.
sonic is a sex with swords franchise
>>546666684
>>546666373in other words it's all the same and silver is excluded for no reason outside of sonazefags want her with blaze and pretend there is any other reason.
>>546666265I don't think it was an arc, Ian was trying to bookend the Mr. Tinker plot point that started the Metal Virus arc by having Sonic experience something similar. He did it poorly (probably still in Archie-mode where a loose end like that could be expanded into a longer storyline, in contrast to IDW's more episodic structure) and his editors should have stopped him, but as I understand it wasn't supposed to be the start of a new storyline.
>>546664056This pairing is the most logical. They are literally the most mature and realistic characters in the series.
>>546666801Since when is Marine a Tanuki
>>546667171Silver is excluded because his game is heavily dependent on obscure external context to make any sense.
>>546663450Must be depending on how sega wants them to be via coin flip
>>546667317Shadow isn't mature. Even Rouge realizes this. Don't mistake seriousness and quietness for maturity.
'ge
>>546667139 HOT DAMN WHAT A WOMAN
>>546666720There is something to it, but it's not something you're particularly interested in and that's fine. Sonic as a series deals with concepts and themes that are meant to be easily digestible. Of course to an adult mired in tons of media experience it can come across as quaint, but that's the point.>you can easily compare it to Sonic and CreamI don't really agree with that. The only similarity in those respective relationships is simply "they're friends".
Every time I see a picture of Shadow being even slightly romantic I hear a loud "WRONG" Buzzer. Shippers hate to admit he's Shadow.
I know I'm not a shipfaggot because I don't want Fiona to end with Tails if Archie preboot has an ending.
>>546667280If Ian wanted to mirror the mr. Tinker plot point with Sonic, it would have been so cool to have the amnesiac Sonic be a villain.
Remember when Sonic Channel said that Rouge is like Shadow's mommy? Yeah, uh, you can't ship them now. It's literally incest. Fucking weirdo
Lunar a cute I hope they do something interesting with shim
>>546667496Silver's story is literally just Sonic 06.
>>546667851>shim*LunarLunar's pronoun is Lunar's name.
>>546666078>something to do with her mentoring MarineYes, her duty has everything to do with Marine. Just like Tails is about beconing more like Sonic, Marine's arc is about becoming more mature like Blaze. That's why at the end of Rush Adventure Blaze consoles Marine to stop crying, and Marine promises that she'll be more mature the next time Sonic and Tails see her.>won't accept that with SilverBlaze isn't really supposed to be Silver's mentor, that's a misinterpretation of their relationship.>the Sol Emeralds relate Blaze to any characterNot really. With Silver and Blaze the only pertinent part about her character is being a princess from another dimension for the tanabata analog without engaging with her themes or lore. You have shipbrain.>>546666373All mysticism and no lore.
imagine not liking douge
>>546667968But that’s dumb just in terms of the English language
>>546667317It's funny how when approaching the franchise with basic media literacy, shadouge was the most obvious from the start
>>546667929Sonic 06 doesn't make any sense by itself.
developmentfags are the worst type of fan
>>546667929And that’s why he sucks
>I actually bought a hoodie in RumbleI guess seeing everyone and their mother have a legendary skin of some sort rubbed off on me until I got one myself. I guess it's still less than nothing compared to what I've spent on gacha 4 years ago, but I don't intend to go up.
Imagine hating sonurge unironically.
>>546667727>Every time I see a picture of Shadow being even slightly romantic I hear a loud "WRONG" Buzzer. Shippers hate to admit he's Shadow.Even Maekawa?
>>546667968Anon, that's not Lunar, that's Soleil.
Shadouge is ooc as hell
>>546668267They don't actually care about development, it's always just an excuse to write the characters differently.
>>546668180How would you fix Sonic 06 while using all the same elements and going through the same story beats in the same order?
>>546668283Gotta keep up with the Joneses
>>546668351Has Evan said anything about "Soleil" pronouns?
>>546667620Shadow literally is over 50 years old and has wisdom beyond any character minus maybe Tikal, Vanilla and Vector. And Rouge listens to his advice when theyre in a fight working together. Rouge is also mature since she's a mediator for him in non fighting ways but Shadow has more resolve and confidence and responsibility than her.
>>546667830That would be cool, but would Sega allow it?But really, an amnesiac Sonic rediscovering himself would be really cool way to explore and get into the core of Sonic's character; it's unfortunate such an idea was wasted on basically a bookend joke.>inb4 Whizzer
>>546668660uuu tangle tummy
>>546667837They have never said that.
>>546668829Shadow spent a brief time of his life in a cooped up space station, was reawakened only to get amnesia days after and only recently finally found his own "self".
SOLEIL NO
>>546663595It's their gimmick.
>>546668347 Sometimes it's okay to just enjoy some harmless cute art, it's not that serious
>>546668367Its looks hot though and its the only ship I see Shadow tolerating since he respects and trusts Rouge the most without walking away and being a asshole.
We have yet to see them fighting
>>546668487Deleting it, they're already on the right path putting rivals as an explanation for Silver, however they missed the actual issues which not to fuck up the development team.
>>546669053And he acted like a grumpy old fart when awakened with vengeance streak and a evil mastermind plan.
>>54666848706's story telling just needs more show don't tell. How is Blaze in the future? How are the people in Silver's future? What are Silver's origins/how is he so powerful? How did the ending of the game affect Silver? There are answers to these things but the game doesn't bother to show them because Nakamura doesn't bother with context. Just look at how Silver also just shows up in Forces with not even a passing mention of an explanation(I know about the prequel comic but that was only made after it was pointed out that the game didn't give context for Silver)
IDW fans never even heard of Sonic before the comic.
>>546669328They're not important, nobody knows them to want to see anything from them.
>>546669190I know this is ragebait but what I found far more interesting about this guy was his fixation on Thomas the Tank Engine characters
>>546669226Same applies to Shadouge. And it's a good dynamic too.
I only have one teeny tine itty bitty microscopic little problem with Shadouge and Shadouge contentShadow is shorter than Rouge but almost all of the fanart flips this
>>546669487>how is he so powerful?It does stick out, but it's not like any character has a backstory for their abilities. Sonic is just super fast because he is.
>>546669328
>>546669487>Nakamura doesn't bother with context. >Silver also just shows up in Forces with not even a passing mention of an explanationI whole heartedly believe they didn't have time for any of this since he's not that important, they put him in the back and couldn't reach him in time, nigga was made to eat all negative luck.
>>546669698Shadow has alien powers, he canon wise can make himself tall as he wants.
>>546667929>>546667171Nope. Silver's story arc with Blaze concludes in Colors DS and needs knowledge of the tanabata myth.>it's like fireworks xDwow just like tanabata!!!Silvaze was and is a complete waste of time, it has nothing to do with what either of them actually do, even when they're together.>>546669487Any amount of showing and telling sould have helped.>>546669774Silver was here to change the course of history, he knocks the Phantom Ruby protoype off of Infinite, thus changing the course of history.
>>546669673I noticed a huge uptick of shadouge hate these past few months, more than likely due to jealousy. I get some people don't like the ship but I'm seeing others blatantly lie about it to try and discredit it. Let people have fun!
>>546669698Shadow is spiritually tall dark and handsomeLike him
>>546669749>Blaze protecting SilverCute
>>546668021You're the only one with shipbrain here. The reason people hate shippers so much is because they involve every aspect of the story to validate their ship.That's you.Blaze and Marine's whole relationship doesn't revolve around the Sol Emeralds, but more importantly than that neither does Sonic and Blaze's. Blaze and Cream's literally has nothing to do with the Sol Emeralds at all no matter how hard you reach. It's completely unrelated. And even if it weren't this condition itself is a pathetic contrivance, as if Blaze can't talk to people unless it has something to do with the Sol Emeralds. It's classic shipper brainrot.
>>546668829>Shadow literally is over 50 years old and has wisdom beyond any Stopped reading.The fact that I am forced to see posts from people who know nothing about Shadow but act like they do should be illegal.>>546669008They did as a joke. https://sonic.sega.jp/SonicChannel/fangallery/oshiete/20240412_008551/>[Rouge] might be like [Shadow's] mom. “Shadow Boy, do you want to eat oversized popcorn again? Oh, what am I gonna do with you?”
>>546668487Have Mephile's staff more involved in the time travel events before he gets out.Force the first playthrough to switch between the main hedgehogs to follow the story as it unfolds.Make the Amy/Knuckles/Blaze/Rouge/Tails stages optional.Rework Silver's gameplay to be more fast paced and fun.Have Blaze visiting Sonic's world and happen to be the first person Silver runs into. They pair up from there.Rework the Elise kissing scene. Add tongue.
>>546669190
>>546670056and gay
>>546669774Nah, Nakamaura doesn't even attempt to explain how Silver or Blaze are around in his games. Not a passing mention, line of dialogue or anything. Just there.
>>546669945I like the idea of the sonic team making tanabata references just to torment you
>>546669328>secondary
sonic twt just found out that rouge's pre-frontiers age was 17 not 18 hahahahahhahahahahahahahhahahahahahhahhahahahahhahaha
>>546670414I was talking about a real discussion
>>546670258>Have Mephile's staff more involved in the time travel events before he gets out.I think Mephiles in general was really wasted. I wish he couldn't just time travel at will and was somehow communicating with Eggman and both were trying to use and then backstab each other.>Rework Silver's gameplay to be more fast paced and fun.P06 did this already, which is why I'm asking about story since I don't think ChaosX will touch it.
>>546670519You mean they're all underage?
>>546670519You mean pre-Heroes, fucking secondaries.
>>546670567>moving the goalpost
>>546668829No, he's lived like 5 years of those 50+, and he is single-minded. He is heavily autistic and doesn't act mature at all. He is intelligent, but also unwise. Basically he is like an edgy hedgehog Eggman, but a bit developmentally stunted, not an example of "wisdom" and maturity even if he's smart
>>546670297And you think anyone with a sane mind will just let that happen? you have to understand (and Sega as well for this matter but it's useless) that the project was so shoved into everyone's throats they didn't have to finish before they reconsider.
>>546664710>who's the most raped character in the franchiseTails
>>546670062Sonic Team disagrees.>>546670343lmao no fucking wayHoly shit what an awful character.
>>546670636That's not what moving the goal post means, I'm just being less vague
>>546669743Sonic's other rivals all have some inference to their power levels in their debut games. Knuckles is from a warrior tribe, Metal was made to match him, Shadow is a test tube monster, Blaze is essentially the Sonic of her world with counterpart Emeralds and even Jet is good at extreme gear because he's from a line of thieves and his people invented the the EGs. Silver is just marketed as "mysterious" and 19 years later they still haven't revealed his origins.
>>546668487Mephiles is Silver's boyfriend and has a mouth. Mephiles and Silver time travel to have a double date with Sonic and Shadow, which is a case of writing so fire that it burns half of earth and causes the flames of disaster. Then Silver tries to go back to the future to not do this, but he still does it because if he didn't tell himself not to do this, he did do this, and he didn't do it because he told himself not to do this, but not having done this meant he didn't go back in the past, so he actually did this. Then Mephiles laughs evilly. Story done with all the same elements as 06
Cream the Rabbit.
>>546670343You're laughing, Silver just murdered 5 innocent citizens and you're laughing
>>546670724Now post it without sounding mad
>>546670585I kinda just figured Mephiles had god autism. He couldn't do anything without first tempting others into agreeing with it.That or he was trying excessively hard to hide his presence from the three hedgehogs with god-killing powers.
>>546670724>Sonic and Blaze relationship is guided by the emeraldsIt's all there's to it desu, i never understood any character having anything to do with Blaze but her fans coping with her relevance
Rouge being 18 was a misconception caused by Sonic X (not canon basically archie)
Silver is the Iblis Trigger
>>546671280*Punch him**Kick him**Burn him alive*
>>546671203Silver is the Iblis Nigger
>>546670963Kek
>>546670062>GRRR YOU'RE A STUPID SHIPBRAIN Holy projection. Not him, but you're either a Sonamy or Silvazefag because there's no other reason you'd be this irrationally upset over this stuff being a part of Sonic and Blaze's relationship
>>546671280*Hug him*
>>546671280*headpats*
>>546671342But hes not the black hedgehog
>>546670875I'm sorry but fighting in a ruined timeline is not a reason to be strong? and being from the future is not another reason for his powers?In all honesty, Blaze seems like the only character that has no explanation for her abilities other then "the other Sonic"
sonic needs a character with the scratchy tomboy voice like r. mika had in street fighter 5sticks was close but a slightly different genre
What the FUCK are you guys talking about? Knuckles is the Iblis Trigger. Did we watch the same show?
>>546671280*fuck him
>>546671629Sorry, you misread.Kickles is the Idris Nigger
>>546671614Do you guys think Sticks should be reintroduced as the Tomboy of the series?
>>546663450HIS franchise
>>546671756i think sticks is a bit too feralin my opinion a good tomboy has a bit of classical femininity within herand there are multiple ways to play thatlike she's embarrassed when she's too feminine or embarrassed that she's not more feminine or the girly things that she likes just plain don't come up a lotregardless sticks is so outside of society that she's just female as an animal is not feminine
>>546672030HIS WORLD
>>546671629Wade is the Iblis Trigger
>>546672262gross
>>546668487 The story could as garbage as people say it is, the game play just sucks and thats it.
i hear shadow in my walls
There are people who DARE disagree with me about Sonic's characterization.
>>546672386"they havin' meatloaf tonight? maybe i'll come out after sundown"
>>546672432Hi Amy
these blaze concept artworks are just surge in different outfits and they ultimately settled on blaze
Silverfags and especially Silvazefags deserve to be bullied. Silver is the eternal third wheel because all he does is stand next to Shadow and Silver to give him the illusion of being an important character but all he gets is tanabataslop.

>>546669986>I noticed a huge uptick of shadouge hate these past few months, more than likely due to jealousyNot what's going on, no one here hates Shadouge. It's inoffensive, the characters were introduced in the same game so there wasn't a Silvaze situation. What they do hate is one particular Shadougefag here who goes out of his way to viciously attack Shadria, Knuxouge, Maria, Knuckles, and fans of those ships/characters. He's also delusional about his ship, insists it's canon. So people call Shadouge shit for the purpose of pissing him off. >>546653169>>546655230>>546656369Both Silver/Blaze and Shadow/Maria are officially associated with Tanabata, a romantic Japanese holiday. It's silly to get mad at the Tanabata themes.The legend tells of two lovers torn apart by cruel fate, destined to remain separated by the universe forever. Yet once a year, they get a chance to see each other again, unless storms cloud the blue skies and hide the shining stars. Rain on Tanabata is said to be tears.>le siblingsような is used for both Silver/Blaze's and Shadow/Maria's relationship. It means like, similar to. This is an important word because a real sibling relationship would not use ような.In Western media, "sibling-like" is used to shut down any possibility of a romantic dynamic or relationship. To someone who only experiences Western media, the concept of "sibling-like" and "romance-like" are mutually exclusive and cannot be combined. It is taken literally and you'll be accused of liking incest as if the characters are blood related.In Japanese media, "sibling-like" and "romance-like" are not mutually exclusive and can be combined. In fact, it is often a romantic dynamic in itself. It is not taken literally, often used as a euphemism or a way to convey the intensity of the trust and feelings between characters without being explicit about the romantic nature of the relationship.The solution? Stop forcing rigid Western ideals onto nuanced Japanese dynamics.

Why does Japanese Shadow sound more emotive?
Silver? Not good.
So is everyone in love but they can't kiss because of mandates?
>>546675371Because showing emotions in Japan is edgy
>>546674276 Give a canon instance of Silver and Blaze being like lovers, otherwise the Tanabata theme is just shallow window dressing and doesn't actually have substance to it
>>546673872Did they really have to re voice the characters?
>>546675586I think you know exactly why they can't kiss if you know anything about the most infamous game in this series.
>>546674443And you're acting is horrible, everyone here knows the blazecuck and how he cried when he got called out and blocked every silverfag because they don't see him as a cuck as well.
>>546674673wow. couldn't they just not?

Shadow and Maria's relationship is the only one that's treated as officially romantic by Sonic Team. They literally use the word romantic to describe scenes with them. Seriously look at the kinds of images uploaded of them together, nothing else even comes close
>>546677580feet
>>546677580I wonder if Silver and Blaze's relationship would be treated similarly if 06 was successful.
WINNING SO HARD
Where is the AI porn slop?
>>546677946twitter
>>546677732What would even change? Blaze only gets trotted out by Sonic Team for Silvaze anyway.
Scourge
This but Surge vs Whisper.
I just checked the booru and tagged Surge and Sonic. Most if not all of the images of them together feature Sonic sexually assaulting Surge. Ever since she first appeared.
>>546678521we still need a storm x amy fankid
>>546678021I feel like we'd get less, day in the life of Blaze/Silver art and more art focused on Silver and Blaze's direct relationship, like how Shadow's Sonic Channel art is with Maria.The two characters are linked but also still pretty independent as far as ST is concerned, its just that Silver is more "important" of the two.
>>546678521>Babylon Rogues in a carYep, I'm reporting you to sega

>>546678592Already got one
>>546678147Why is Matt covered in semen?
>>546677736This is old news. Just like with Shadow and Knuckles, they planned spin-offs BEFORE the movie came out. Thank streaming for needing more content.
>>546678791god hes such a fag
>>546678791>>546678824you know what fair enough
>>546678626None of the other characters are in the others' Sonic Channel art though.
Fucking hell you people are actually legit insane. What in the fuck
>>546677297I fag for every character, The fact that Silver does have substance like everyone else but somehow it makes you hurt because you believe he should get punished for the game he debuted in is just being completely crippled in having fun.
>>546679314SONIC IS THE WIND
>>546679316>for the game he debuted inNo he should be "punished" because he's a hedgehog with nothing to do with Sonic and Shadow in a vain attempt to recreate the success of Shadow and Blaze was forced into an irrelevant one-sided relationship with mysticsm slapped on top to make him seem deep. He's a bum, a leech, and a fraud.
>>546679459I love how all of this does not interest anyone that is not part of the fandom
>>546679314This place is hated for being full of inane schizos that are annoying to engage with.
>>546679612So you're hurt because you don't know anything about him and think that Blaze being a leech to him is somehow his fault and not hers for so irrelevant?
>>546673685sexog8 work
>>546679810I know everything about him.>Blaze being a leechThey had to literally kill Blaze in a bid to make Silver interesting and nobody even gave a fuck besides shippers and the fandom wants to pretend it didn't count and that he's a blank slate because their relationship sucks so much ass.
Silver and Blaze having birthday Tanabata sex in the sink.
>>546677580The sad and tragic life of Shadow, your fans ship you with everyone but the person you loved most
>>546678865Because Logan is too strong, too tough and too vicious. And he's healing while Matt is not.Apparently its because God told him to wear a white costume while he fight the seven deadly sins or something, idk.
>>546679612Sure, I get why someone might feel that way, but Silver is different. He's never a Shadow copycat, from all Sonic rivals in comparisons he's the furthest from it, his core premise is way too different. He's a guy from a terrible future, desperately trying to prevent it, and that pure motivation makes him that compelling. The mysticism gives his story a different flavor from the usual science plots, and his journey from an angry survivor to a more confident hero is a solid arc. He's not a fraud, he's just trying with an impossible task.
Would Sonic suck Bill Clinton's cock?

Miss me on the comic yet, /sthg/? Don't worry I am busy with Drogune. I ain't afraid of no audience.
>>546680357Blaze dissociation with him made him better for everyone, you keep forcing the narrative that a ship is important, yet it never was in the eyes of everyone.>I know everything about him.Then how do you mention Shadow twice and there's 0 connections with both of them other then being hedgehogs?
With all these debates, I was curious.>What sources do you consider important to Sonic canon?https://strawpoll.com/6QnMQ21lAnehttps://strawpoll.com/6QnMQ21lAnehttps://strawpoll.com/6QnMQ21lAne
>>546674276 lol don't try to tie Silvaze slop with Shadria to try and make it look official, shipcuck. Maria literally says she loves Shadow with all her heart and they exchange multiple intimate emotional and physical moments. Silver and Blaze have fuck all actually going on with them other than being good friends and able to fight well together
>>546680616He’s blue not orange
>>546678626>>546679163(me)Maria is in some Shadow art like picrel. I figure if 06 was successful Silver and Blaze would get similar art, rather than the solo art with vague suggestions we currently get.Also Big and/or Froggy are usually hidden or referenced in all the art somewhere can you find them here?

>>546680528>he's never a Shadow copycatYes he was. He was a deliberate attempt to recreate the success of Shadow. That's why he's an S-named hedgehog >"no you don't understand he's a hero that never gives up and saves the world"Why should I care?>more confident hero is a solid arcThat's not his "arc" at all. He doesn't have an arc. His story is literally just a romantic tragedy with a bittersweet ending.>>546680935It was never in the eyes of anyone because it lives and dies on references to a cultural festival you've never heard of, yet it's still the only other thing Sonic Team cares to actually do with him other than being a hero.
>>546681387are you blindthey are clearly downscaled
>>546681098>I figure if 06 was successful Silver and Blaze would get similar art I really don't see why you would think that, they don't actually associate with eachother that often and only really do so in the times we see them in the games, they have their own separate lives. Shadow and Maria lived together on the ARK for a good amount of time, like 2 years
>>546681650>I don't care about what Silver did i only care about his ship and that makes him badOk.
>>546681986>like 2 yearsSo Shadow is 2 years old?
>>546681387Tangle’s eyes are different
>>546682150Careful, this might make Surgefags seethe
I few days ago people were fighting about Silver again when the manga was being posted and it was funny.
>>546682321what do surgefags love and hate?? I feel like it changes every day.
>>546670183A joke doesnt make it true.
Post ocs
>>546682437They love Sonurge, and they hate Amy (for obvious reasons) and Silver (for no obvious reasons)
>>546681986I mean 06 had Blaze with Silver in the future for who knows how long prior to the start of the game. Maybe they would have made art of that, just like they made art of Shadow and Maria's daily life on the ark.Just think, this picture could have also had Blaze in it, if 06 wasn't a failure and Rush wasn't so beloved.Can you see him?

>>546681986>for a good amount of time, like 2 yearsIs this true? The SA2 guide makes it sound like they didn't know each other for that long since they didn't know Gerald created Shadow
>>546682654Even tho i ship it, it doesn't fit them, Blaze is more regal and has a joyful background then to be there, and Silver has a very desperate and motivational background for him not to be alone there.
>>546682858she's canonically unhealthy
>>546682592>They love Sonurge...why??

>>546682557I like his fit, but that must be hell to draw regularly
>>546683038That's cool, and I can understand that. These characters work better as individuals. But that's not how they were in 06.
did silver and blaze have sex among these ruins
>be Anon>be Tangle's friend>be there for her always, support her, comfort her in times of need>be her friend for years>profess your love for her>she rejects>she fell in love with some random wolf bitch that uses her insecurities to her advantage>you point this out and she gets mad at you>you reasonably crash out>she says you're like everyone else, doesn't care about her, and to never talk to her again>you steal one of Tails' inventions and forcefully wipe your brain of any memory of her>the next day you're hanging out with friends and Tangle comes up to apologize for what happened>but you have no idea who she is>Tails finds out what you did but tells Tangle in secret>naturally she's heartbroken>she drove you to think this was necessary>she blames herselfWhat happens next?
I want to live in the disillusion where everything I want to believe is right and everything the naysayers are wrong.
What the fuck happened between Blaze and Silver here?

Anyway I read the new chapter. I didn't like it as much as others because a lot of it is just a boring fight. But Shadow is cool, and I'm curious to see why he's working with Eggman. He seems to have a valid reason to not collaborate with them. Also the twist with the sword was cool, her design is cool too. Her behavior seems annoying, I need to learn more about her though before I say that definitelyOnce again I am hoping they reunite with Tails in the next chapter. I knew it wasn't going to happen in this one since it was obviously going to focus on fighting Shadow, but now they have a valid reason to
>>546683450Yeah. It's one of those designs that I'd rather shoot myself than draw it multiples times. It would be cool as a 3D model though
>>546683961Truly based, thanks for doing all these

Tails!
>>546683961whisper is so fucking sexy
>>546684006Agreed fellow Tailsbro. I don’t like how he’s basically become Nicole in this manga, get him involved in the action ffs
>>546684164If you're a human man what are you expected to do in this situation?
>>546683779Look how in-sync they are!
>>546683779it was super wholesome and they were seperatedvery star-crossedmuch tanabatawowanyways time for Silver to get back to yapping about hope for no reason
>>546683961Got an audible chuckle out of the Whisper one.I also enjoy Amy being a baller.Thanks for doing my request.
>>546683239SonixJax has drawn a ton of SFW Sonic girls without clothes but she deleted all her art a while back
>>546684291Tangle you gotta get Whisper off that all burger diet its not healthy
>>54668348706 seriously feels like a fever dream specially if you did play it before 2010's, if anything i could explain to you is that, Silver in 06 learned to be independent from being dependent, without 06 he's naturally independent but learns to be less desperate, Blaze in 06 was not different but rather lacking her main flaws, she was more boring without them, her insecurity, her rage, her awkwardness, things that made her character did not exist because it was a serious place for her to be that way.
>>546684302I hope it's because Yuta is having his own arc bonding with Sonic, and Sonic & Tails would always take the spotlight from him if they were together, rather than Imada's understanding of Tails being limited to that. Based on how he wrote the third chapter, it doesn't seem to be limited like that, so I think it's a necessity for the story rather than his direction for the character. He also needs a good way to justify it, have Tails work on something while he's alone in his laboratory
>>546683961The Amy one is sick! thanks drawfrien, black doom one looks awesome!
>>546682557Great stuff!
>>546682557he looks like an AU version of silver
>>546683961Likes great, just like the previous one.
Havent seen a Tailsfag yet that wasnt femboy-coded

Why is Sonic so tsundere towards Amy?
Shadow
>>546682654>Just think, this picture could have also had Blaze in it, if 06 wasn't a failure and Rush wasn't so beloved.No, because 06's story is that Blaze isn't there yet.

>>546681018I'm the biggest Shadriafag here and I used to be the biggest anti-Silvazefag here.Once upon a time, a Silvaze fanartist with a sizeable following who could speak Japanese visited /sthg/. She loved drawing Silvaze, did fancomic translation requests, and loved to debate its lore. She was the first to popularize the idea that Blaze is sealed in the Sol Dimension at the end of '06. Before then, almost everyone just said it made no sense. Her love for Silvaze eventually earned her schizophrenic hatred, causing her to leave /sthg/, then the Sonic fanbase, and then the entire internet. She implied her real life safety was in danger somehow.But before that, we had connected outside 4chan. She took me under her wing like an older sister. I hated Silvaze at the time. I would even blacklist the ship name on sites. But I liked my new Silvaze friend more than I hated Silvaze, and I begrudgingly listened to her reasoning.Everything I told you in my last post is what she explained to me nearly a decade ago. She was the one who revealed Maekawa shipped Shadria, which got me interested in it. Without a Tanabatafag Silvaze shipper, you likely even be posting Shadria because I'm the one who uncovered most of the supporting evidence. Shadria and Silvaze are sister ships thematically. Shadriafags owe Silvazefags and Silvazefags owe the God of Shadria, Maekawa.

>>546686804>>546681018What the fuck I thought both of these were krack
is krack a sparky?
>>546674276 You realise that sibling-like description of relationships in Japan is very often in a non-romantic sense? It isn't portrayed as romantic that generally like you're trying to twist it to be to fit your narrative. Like we see in Silver and Blaze's relationship, they do not behave at all in an intimate/romantic sense and it is nothing like Shadow and Maria's. The phrase was used to describe how Blaze views Silver, which when used by the one who holds that view is generally used to establish a non-romantic relationship. Trying to conflate the two relationships together like you're doing simply because the sibling-like term was used is apples to oranges. You claimed to understand nuance, but you clearly just want the same shipbrain lovers slop for both regardless of the obvious differences in relationship
>>546688198She easily has the most protectable smile
>>546686804I think you’re full of shit for this because you should be able to process how much less substance Silvaze has compared to Shadria. Silvaze WISHES it could have as deep as the beautifully intrinsic connection Shadow and Maria has. At least they are actually written in the actual game stories. Silvaze tanabata is all surface level allusion and fanfiction that barely exists in canon

>>546690915They're not protagonists. They don't even have names.
>>546690863They say he's both a boy and a girl, and he's also both a protagonist and an antagonist
Cause women aren't allowed to be "evil". They can only be "misunderstood" cause feminism. See "The List".List of IDW recurring characters by alignment>GoodTangle (female)Whisper (female)Jewel (female)Lanolin (female)Belle (female)Nite (Allegedly Gay male)Don (Allegedly Gay male)Surge (Female)>EvilRough (Male)Tumble (Male)Dr. Starline (Male)Mimic (Male)Clutch (Male)Kitsunami (Male)This is how intersectional feminists are. All men are evil unless they are gay and/or trans. I'd add non-white but they'll throw black men under the bus just as quick as they do whites (See Shadow's treatment). Amazing how they decided on Surge getting a redemption but Kit is literally going to plan to murder innocents to feed Surge's hero worship nonsense.
>>546690143How will they even update them in february when the next patch is the one that loads them in
>>546690867Good luck with your studies anon.
>>546691076>They say he's both a boy and a girlWhere?
>>546691097I'm all for having more female protagonists. The main Sonic cast leans very male-heavy, with the only girl protagonists being amy and rouge.That being said, it's getting really stale in IDW. It's predictable. The writing is starting to get shallow in that there's no tension. Girl = good, boy = bad. Is this character good or bad? I just have to check their gender and I know. That's not good writing.
>>546691097Barnes will break this with Megani
>>546691265They wanted a trans character, but SEGA shot it down, so they wanted to refer to him as "they, but SEGA shot it down (and then it still ended up in the comic by mistake), eventually they compromised on only referring to him by his name Lunar, except now there's a plot twist, that's not even his name. The writer has publicly said that the character's concept isn't well defined yet.
>>546691097R&T aren't evil, they're silly antagonists that can still do good acts

>>546691097In spite of its good art, I despise IDW because of its saccharine, uncool nature, its lack of cool rival fights, and the fact that these leftoid activists at IDW are using at as vessel to promote their political ideologies and to pander to the leftoid zoomers on Xitter and Bluesky. IDW Sonic was a mistake

Happy Shadow '05 20th Anniversary!
>>546695013 Why the hell did they release Rush and STH on the same day?
shadow was my first game and it really distorted my expectations for sonic games
>>546695470 In a good or bad way?
The official Twitter for both American and Japanese Sonic haven't said anything about these anniversaries.
SEGA has trained a generation of fans to think aesthetics, graphics, sounds, visuals, "sauce" and "aura" are more important than the basic functionality of the player characters in a 30 year old platformer series. Who cares if Frontiers is a blatantly unfinished, directionless, low-budget tech demo? Super Sonic's eyes turned blue! Who cares if classic sonic is fundamentally busted and unfun to control? He's running through green hill zone while chiptune music plays in the background! It's just like the genesis games! 06 defenders will dismiss the Herculean work it took to make the characters actually fun to control in P06 because sonic team doesn't pay attention to that part either
>>546695680?
>>546694761Notice how empty the responses to that post were. Woefag really drags down the quality of the general.
>>546682557This is just Silver but edgier, so diet Shadow.
>>546695984Using the korone example, why do people like knuckles? or rather, why some people has him as their favorite among all of the other sonic characters? Not that nothing is there, I just don't know why for some he is top 1
>>546695561Bad kind of. I expected the branching path system to be in other Sonic games as well as the missions. It is currently my favorite Sonic game though.
>>546696243He's the audience surrogate for normie jocks.
>>546696243He's like the Raphael of Sonic.
It's night time! Have a lovely night, /sthg/!!
>>546696550That's Silver
>>546688183>When did this all go down? I want to see the archives.I think the Silvaze artist was here from maybe...2015 - 2019, I want to say? I got here in early 2017 and there'd be entire threads derailed over Silvaze in my early days. Tons of 2,000 character posts explaining it with sources. This is her thread that gained popularity, it was reblogged by Evan so she could find it later, in her words. The /sthg/ Silvazefag redpilled the entire fanbase on the connection between Sonic Rush, Sonic '06, and Sonic Rivals, all through her Silvaze shipping autism. And she was in here, in these threads, using up the whole character limit to debate and explain Silvaze. Other shipping autists from /sthg/ tried to ruin her life.Now that I think about it, I remember wanting to be like her.>>546688520>You realise that sibling-like description of relationships in Japan is very often in a non-romantic sense?People often point to the sibling-like statements as proof that Silvaze and Shadria cannot be romantic, but they forget that this is NOT definitive from the perspective of the country that created these stories and characters.>you clearly just want the same shipbrain lovers slop for both regardless of the obvious differences in relationshipNo lol. I hate that. Shadria and Silvaze are both loved by their respective shippers for the fact that it CAN'T happen. Silver and Blaze should stay separated and Maria should stay dead. The bittersweet sadness of it is kino.>>546688571>I think you’re full of shit for this because you should be able to process how much less substance Silvaze has compared to ShadriaI'm not even a huge Silvaze fan, I just understand what it was trying to do. You know everything explained in pic related, right anon?
no cheese?
>>546695551Tangle, my heart~
>>546696715>Shadria and Silvaze are both loved by their respective shippers for the fact that it CAN'T happen.90% of Silvaze shippers don't even understand that it can't happen.
>>546664710Silvar was so characteristically raped is not even funny. I'm glad the Shounenniggers saved him from the girls
Questions?
>>546665635What’s the point of this when all of them have been fucked up at some point
>>546668487I would say remove blaze but then it'll make my Silvaze Queen artist devastated
>>546669328And then Silver gets to suck her cute perky breast *sucky sucky suck suck*
Silvaze is a cancer.
Canon ships are necessary in any media form to give depth and attitude to characters. Imagine hip and friendly neighbor Spiderman just saving the day without Mary Jane wandering his thoughts. If you hate shipping, you hate the character. Without love, the characters have nothing to fight for in a personal and intimate level.
>>546697738>depth>silvazelol
SHADAMY
>>546697738I have never once seen Sonic fighting Eggman and thought, “Damn this would be so much better if he was doing it for Amy”
>>546670960Duo gotta train this artstyle immediately
>>546697827Blaze gives Silver the will to do the right things and use his powers responsibly.
>>546697308The Queen is dead
>>546673986Sonazefags are weird like that
Bun!
>>546697940There are many dagasii models on civit already, they work pretty well.
>>546697738Silver isn't fighting for Blaze, Silver isn't even aware of 06, it's an irrelevant sideshow. Any time they're doing Silvaze it's a bunch of wank when they could be doing literally anything else. Unfortunately Silvaze is a tumor that embedded itself deeply into Silver.>>546698013Except all those times where he did that without Blaze to babysit him.
>>546673685>>546683961These are great way better than the shitty whiteboard. You xir are amazing
>>546697738okay who is sparky's canon ship?

>>546698668Has /sthg/ reached it's last life...?
>>546683779It's that one time they do the "Show don't tell" (they're having sex)
>>546698998just rememberyou only need one ring
>>546698585Shut up chickpea, you got beat by Shadow twice.
>>546686804>Silvaze gods did it again
>>546699087Sage took it and won't tell me where she's hid it!
>>546698024Haha, that's hilarious. I originally found Miijiu account on Lofter before she made a Twiter, I saved old art of hers. I helped her gain some traction on Xitter by retweeting her art when she had around 200 followers. She blocked me after I made a post asking, "Why do people call Shadria incest but give Silvaze a pass when they're both referred to as 'like a sibling' in bios?" It wasn't even replying to her. She got suspended for the very same reason I did (no reason)
>>546663450>Shadow held back and was on the defense trying to escape with the emerald and still evenly matched SonicCocky Sonic Nerds need to know there place.

>>546696715>People often point to the sibling-like statements as proof that Silvaze and Shadria cannot be romantic, but they forget that this is NOT definitive from the perspective of the country that created these stories and characters. It may not be fully definitive in the languaging because Japanese in a lot of instances can be interpretive, but there are general meanings for terms, and the sibling-like term in the large majority of cases is not romantic. There is clearly a difference between the kind of sibling-like relationship we're talking about here. Shadow and Maria is very clearly intimate and purposefully framed as romantic by Sonic Team in their interactions on many occasions. Sliver and Blaze don't have anything like this, showing it's clearly not the same kind of relationship. Sonic and Tails are also said to have a sibling-like relationship, one that Sonic himself compares directly to Silver and Blaze's, which seems like a pretty definitive answer of what kind we're talking about for them
>>546697892Super cute.
I'm playing Sonic 1 and I'm really struggling with Labyrinth zone act 3. My checkpoint that I've circled here has zero rings available and one bubble shield. It puts me right into the boss fight, and I just can't make it through the tight corridors with all the spikes and fireballs and bullshit without taking more than 1 hit.
>it's getting harder and harder to find an actual Sonic gay porn without cuntboy sonic/shadowEven my fucking sonic gay porn is not safe from this libtard woke agenda baka.
>>546700403don't rush yourself, just try to keep going when you're sure you won't get hit by an arrow or a fireballthe water will rise above sonic if you do this but if you do it right, he won't drown
>>546696715Thank you. Now I'm sad.>>546697308Damn that art is good.
>>546698095 Silvazefags are just psychotic and harrass people shipping Blaze with anyone but Sliver. If someone makes art of Silver getting cucked it's to piss them off and they kinda deserve it
>>546699939
>>546700403That's one of my favorite moments in the seriesAre you trying to defeat Eggman? You don't need to, just make it to the end
>>546700589>>546700767Thank you very much, I made it!
>>546700816Nice
This is a comfy song. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NVoNyufMUpo
>>546700715sometimes you can't tell if Shadow is super annoyed or not
>>546696715Blessed be our dearly departed Silvaze Loregod. You will Always be missed.
>>546701119I don't think he was too fond of humans, but Maria was different.

>>546701385both ooc
>>546701670Now all those instances of him attacking Tails are even worse
>>546701516At least he doesn't actively go out hunting for 'em...
>>546701385>mandateNah, this is the result of Ian and his bro who hates Shadow.
>>546701630Ugh.
>>546696243He's just cool. I think he's arguably the best designed character besides sonic himself
>>546701929 Surge should be here by now

Whisper!Well? What do you think?
>>546702185me to krack
I read the Chaotix special and I love it so much. Actually teared up when it hit me that it was fun to read, like I was transported to a simpler and happier time in life…
>>546694646Yes. I've thought about making my own sugar glider OC. I don't really like what they did with lunars design.
>>546702384She becomes a lazy neet who sleeps on anon's couch.
>>546702591I love Whisper, and I don't have 3 dozen Whisper photos saved. I have 5 dozen.
>>546702185
>Crossworld is getting a next gen port in a few weeks and Sega is barely even marketing itHoly fuck this company is incompetent
>>546702651I think she respects men
>>546692105I hope Whisper gets an animation where she cries as her corset slowly slips off.
>>546702673that would be *plap* *plap* *plap* *plap* *plap*
>>546702757what don't you like about it?
>>546702591Hate Whisper, love retard Whisper posting
>>546702651Picrel and >>546702591 I have over 1000 Whisper pics saved.
>>546702757I originally thought Lunar was a flying squirrel like ray. How would your sugar glider OC look differently than the ones depicted by Lunar and his family?
>>546702384Allegedly she was going to dump Scourge and become her own "self serving rock". I guess Ian was going to make her a stronk independant womyn who need no m*n.
>>546702905krack is too bony to make plappies
>>546691319Hmmm. Could it be because Sonic is a BOY oriented franchise?
>>546702897
>>546703176>I guess Ian was going to make her a stronk independant womyn who need no m*n.I guess that's a good ending for her, it would be ooc if she ended up returning to Mobius as if nothing had happened. Maybe she’d reunite with Nic and finally try living life on her own terms. Imo, it would be nice if she admitted to Tails that she was an asshole because she didn't know any better and make peace with him before leaving everything behind.
>>546702591>/sthg/ constantly talks about how much they hate Silver >but at the same time threads are full of Silver images

>>546703443Nic was planned to return, Yardley even made a redesign for her so she's not just transgender Fang. >it would be nice if she admitted to Tails that she was an asshole because she didn't know any betterI'd love to see her try to admit that to Sally
>>546703962>she wants to hate fuck him*ftfy
>>546703903
>>546704039
>>546701385Both suck because Shadow is written out spite of autistic sonic fanboys agenda of making his favorite characters look cooler than him.
>>546670519Rouge's age was listed as 18 on Sonic Channel, "17" was only in the Heroes manual and was likely a misprint.
>>546704145i wanna honk their nose
>>546702890she respects getting dicked by them
>>546704364chunky snoots make life worth living
>>546702591That's a blatant lie. I have over 140 transparent Whisper photos saved on my pc.
>>546703045proofs?
>When you're not gyrating enough so she kicks it up a notch
>>546704039Nic always felt like redundant character. Archie family members of the main cast were always a mixed bag.
>>546704603hey cutoutanon, for some reason it feels like that number should be higher for how often you've show up in the threads with a new edit
>>546670519>she was 17 years 11 months 364 days 23 hours 59 minutes 59 seconds old you sick fuck
>>546704743
>>546704039In my headcanon, Fiona would eventually betray Scourge and Moebius in the same way she once betrayed the FFs. Over time she'd realize that Scourge doesn’t actually trust her either, and his growing unhingeness would scare her and force her to rethink her life choices. Her betrayal would end up stopping a conspiracy that could've seriously harmed Mobotropolis or the FFs and that alone would make the Freedom Fighters go easier on her. Sally would acknowledge that Fiona’s actions made a difference, but the law and Fiona’s past crimes would still need to be held accountable. The only options Sally could offer would be prison time or exile. Understanding that staying and losing her freedom in a place where everyone hates her isn’t worth it, Fiona would choose exile, which feels like the most acceptable outcome for everyone involved. Before she leaves, Tails would confront her one last time. He still carries a lot of resentment from the way she treated him in the past, and she knows it. For the first time, she’d admit that she was afraid of being seen as a good person when she didn’t feel she was one. She didn’t know any better back then, so she pushed everyone away and treated people like shit. She'd tell Tails that he was the only one who cared about her unconditionally, and, in retrospective, she genuinely wishes things had gone differently. She’d tell him he’s kind, smart, and a true hero, a real Freedom Fighter, to give him some closure and to show that she's at least trying to be honest at the end. Why does this matter? Because Tails is obviously still emotionally hurt, Archie Tails is very emotional and never received a proper self-steem boost, and this gives both of them a meaningful, satisfying conclusion. And honestly, I don’t think Sally needs a dramatic final confrontation with Fiona at all.
>>546704902kek

Over time she'd realize that Scourge doesn’t actually trust her either, and his growing unhingeness would scare her and force her to rethink her life choices.This was more or less Ian's plan for her. Somehow he thought of that for Fiona but nothing for the Suppression Squad.
>>546704752Does anyone not job in idw? Please tell me at least Sonic doesn't job.

>>546705775I read that first panel as "those poor fucks". I've been here too long.
>>546704126Sonurge is so cute. It’s like Sonic is actually putting effort into changing her, and Surge ends up falling for her charming chill and aloof attitude.
>>546706026Fucking great.
>>546704885IIRC there are two anons who remove the wolfs backgrounds.

>>546707556would
>>546707203What took them so fucking long to do this? Franchises like Metroid, Final Fantasy, and obviously Sonic suffered for years due to western audiences.
People will shit on Sonurge because she hates him and then praise Sonamy where the entire premise is "She loves him.... just BECAUSe okay and she loves him FOREVER"
Surge knows that Sonic finds her attractive.
>>546707203This is some of the best entertainment news I've heard in a while. Now if Sonic Team and Sega would actually enforce it instead of bending over backwards for westerners' and their demands is a different question
>>546707632when he was a lad he ate four dozen eggs every morning to help him get largeand now that he's grown he eatssandwiches
>>546707681Only a Sonadow fujo or Sonurge self-inserting shipper would say that

>>546697308
Surge just can't resist Sonic's compliments.
>>546708371Surge has also been shipped with every hedgehog now
>>546707681This is true, most Sonamy shippers self insert as Sonic to fuck Amy because it takes no effort for them to imagine themselves Amy wanting to ride their dick because Amy is obsessive and loves Sonic unconditionally, without ignoring the fact that Amy would kill to have sex with Sonic. It's effortless, there's nothing cool about Sonamy.
>>546705662Based>>546705689
>>546708689I despise this ship because it's all anyone ever fucking thinks about with these characters. They never fucking have them be their own people, they're just known as "the dyke couple" now.Gay shipping is such a plague these days.
>>546708160The issue is that western fans essentially want Samus to be nothing more but "female Doomguy" and the games should focus on a lonely atmospheres than actually having good gameplay or puzzles.

Besides hikkikomoris and outcasts, their own people don't buy their slop. They sent it over to the West because they are the ones who eat it up. If they start cutting off the West over this shit, there goes their income, their allies, and their future. Nippon forgets where they are every time. 'Course they'll blame the USA for the bombs and turning them into a USA colony, but they forget or don't acknowledge that Jews built the bombs and Jews ran and continue to run the CIA.USA is a snail with green-banded broodsac.
