One badass hedgehog who's not here to save your ass
Silver breeding future girls who called him Uwu
>>551653736I've seen the ancient Ark gif enough times to know what he actually intended for Sonic's ass
>>551653561Don't worry, Lanolin, you might be a shitty leader, but you'll always have those gigantic sheeptits.
>>551653561>Q:Are you gonna add more Female hedgehog characters?Ian: I don't know if we can because Surge in her original pitch was also a hedgehog to be full on theme of the anti-Sonic type of thing and ultimately it was asked not to do that. Kit was also supposed to be a fox as well and we were asked not to do that. So we got tenrec and fennec. Fennec is a type of fox and tenrecs are false hedgehogs so it all works out in the end. Sega seems to be disinclined to have repeating species like the original Tangle was a rabbit and they said we already have one with Cream. "But she's going to be very different." "No, something else." Okay well, that's where we got the lemur from.>Sega seems to be disinclined to have repeating species like the original Tangle was a rabbit and they said we already have one with CreamLanolin is cooked.
>>551653736Thief!
>>551653561Sheep is for breeding
Mephiles has not done anything smart, in fact he overcomplicated shit and ruined his own plots. 99% of the things he did had no point and harmed his chances, so unless he wanted to sabotage his attempt to ruin reality, he failed
>>551654020It's better this way. If she appeared in a game, they would nerf her tits.
>>551654020Rabbit tangle would have been kino.Could have made her a Jerboa, the long tail thing would still have worked well
>>551654057Lanolin is for Shadow.
>>551654313Shadow has no sex drive and Lanny NEEDS dick! It would never work...
>>551654086Mimic has not done anything smart, in fact he overcomplicated shit and ruined his own plots. 99% of the things he did had no point and harmed his chances, so unless he wanted to sabotage his attempt to ruin the Restoration, he failed.
Quick image request, /sthg/ - Rouge's "Tails never existed" pic.
>>551653779Whisper=BillLanolin=HankSticks=Dale
>>551654020Kit is skirting the line.Hey wait, wouldn't a "Hare" have worked for Tangle or is that too close?
>almost 100 issues in a comic book and nothing fucking happened>your western legacy is being an arrogant moralfaggotUseless, shitty rat.
>>551654531I'm not a drawfag, just curious about the context.
>>551654587Hare is just another word for rabbit. A fennec is at least a different species.
>>551654435true.>>551654313Both are made for ME.
>>551654687IDW drags its feet and goes nowhere and is extremely fucking boring. Just read Blade of Courage.
Power is stored in the boobs.
Need pics of Scourge and Surge being sexual together
>>551654694What are your thought on Lanolin's Bell Wispon?
>>551655021only romanticiniconisism
>“Second, I looked down on and was disrespectful to a comrade I was supposed to rely on. Um…”>Silver interrupts Blaze’s words of apology, and accepts her request.>“It’s okay Blaze, it’s mutual! No problem. I’ll hold out for 20 seconds or even 200 years! …So, can I say something too?”>“…?”>“My name is Silver.”
>>551655094It's on her boobs
>>551654861Years from now the writers will hand-wave Mimic's incomprehensible motivations as "insanity" like they do with Mephiles.
>>551655215Kino
>>551655094Lucky whisp...
>>551655449>uwuver eyesooc bullshit
>>551654969Lads I fucking love tits
>>551655094Cool as fuck and wish it was used more.
>>551653736I love how sooner or later new Shadow meme will always pop upeven when he was put on a time out by sega he still got new memes
Damn. Silverfags will NEVER forgive IDW huh?
Sonic should be written like Olive
>>551654969I am looking respectfully
The animal redundancy clause also means for Sally to be truly dead and buried they'd need to make a new squirrel girl blobian
>>551655486Sonic has to be the only franchise where fans misunderstand Sega's lazy animations for the way characters are supposed to look like.
>>551655750Okay but you will have to deal with another 5-10 years of "[new character] is the new Sally".
the fact that 20 years of tanabataslop hasn't smoked out silverfags by now means the crashout when he finally gets a game is going to be legendarythe discourse is always "what whould Sonic Team do with Silver?" as if they haven't made it clear over the last 2 decades all he's good for is tanabataslop
>>551655750She's a chipmunk tho (or at least the versions anybody care about are.)
Douge
>>551655228>>551655478It's funny how ABT was able to goonerslop a bell of all things.
Will you guys buy the next mainline Sonic game even if it uses generative AI?
>>551656303aslong as the game isn't horse shit
>>551655876why does silver never have those eyes in official SoJ art such as from uekawa or karasuno, a medium where there should be nothing barring them from doing that if they really wanted? :)
>>551656126If you think tanabata is slop you should be thrown under a bus
>>551656303No
>Tanabata search results: increased by 300%>What the fuck is a Tanabata
I'm the new Sally and I'm going to suck all of your cocks because it's in character
>>551656126Nobody said "I wonder what they'll do with Shadow?" after SA2 because it was good and it worked and they followed-up on it. You might see some whinging about his rivalry with Sonic being meaningless or his tragedy with Maria being overplayed but nobody denied what he's about. Silverfags are actively ignorant or in denial of everything his direction for 20 years and still think he needs "a chance".
>>551656283The angle subtlety implies even bigger tits. Also the thought of the bell staying on during sex and ringing is pretty hot...
>>551656398Silvaze is slop and has always been slop. It was flawed from its very conception because '06 mischaracterized Blaze as the reasonable and level-headed one when Rush proves otherwise.Silver and Blaze are both wild and the ideal Silvaze is not Blaze tard wrangling Silver.
>>551656371Because Uekawa is a hack, that's why when Sonic closes his eyes his pupils change shapes instead of really blinking. He only knows how to draw one expression and I can hear your head seething from the screen
>>551656398I think it's slop too
>>551656303Can it please use AI to translate directly from Japanese to other languages? I'm sick of the localization crap and how it drastically changes the scripts
>>551655876Uwuverdfag refuses to accept that it's out of character and not every character needs to make every expression
I hope you guys like Sonic Prime ;p
>>551656126Silver in rivals had fuck all going for him outside of 'let do timetravel again but show you even less' (first game came out same year as 06 mind you) Sega never had a plan for him
>>551656578Cute and not written by Ian.
>>551656815what?
>>551656650Holy fuck this is hilarious bait
Silver is a good character that was ruined by Evan Stanley's pedophilic obsession with teen boys being "cute"
>>551656772>>551656649It's a love so true both are willing to change themselves to please the other. They aren't themselves because they change on purpose for the sake of the other. 99% of artists understand this, that's why compared to the other ships their art is just cute and wholesome moments together. But you must have some kind of tumor inside your brain taking space and making rational thinking impossible
What do we want from the Sonic franchise in 2026? What game are we getting that year?
>>551657196Uwuverfags are pedos who are also into incest, hence why Silver is always Shadow's or Sonic's or Amy's son in their AUs
>>551656883That's a lotta words
>>551656883>(Unconfirmed)>literal fanfictionlol
This heat is more oppresive than my father.
>>551657303> They aren't themselves because they wuv eachotherIt's called out of character nigga.
Boom is unfunny millennial slop
>>551657337I don't think we are getting Frontiers 2 in 2026. I think they will show another spin-off at the State of Play or Summer Game Fest. I'm hoping for a platformer.
>>551656126They completed their Tanabata retelling in 06, just because they reference it a lot doesn't mean that a Silver game would be about that. Silver and Blaze are firmly in the "meet once in awhile stage" of Tanabata.
>>551656883>200 years in the future to make gloves and boots from an ancient civilization
>>551657303>They aren't themselves because I can't insert into their actual charactersSo true slopsister
Boom is funny zoomer slop
>>551657337I'd like to see a survival horror game or a game based on Sonic Prime. THere's so much to choose from
>>551655701>Main character gets kidnapped>She’s kept in the back of a mail truck>She sees a package to herself>It’s a nail file>She uses it to escape like a classic prisoner>The package was from “Deus Ex Machina”Fucking Kino
Delicious honey butt.
EVERYBODY WANTS TO BE MY ENEMY!Spare the sympathy, everybody wants to be - my enemy!
>>551656883>Silver lore guide>SECOND paragraph needed to be marked as unconfirmed>06 erased itself except it didnt
>>551656883> Blaze's lore> Anything to do with SilverLmao, save the embarrassment and remove her from this slop, bitch doesn't even remembers him when she thinks of people important to her, and she remembers fucking Amy Rose
>>551657948Honey buns
>>551657303>making shit up
Don't post the other one
Oh please, Eggman was my father. You may call me Doctor Eggman.
>>551657739>>551657859>>551658064>You mean you have to compromise and make concessions when you are in a relationship? Fuck this out of character shit, I will never have sex with a woman ever and become an incel forever

I need more fanart of Cursed Samurai Infinite.
>>551656398The story and tropes aren't inherently bad but Silvaze is. Silver and Blaze aren't even estranged by anything that happens in 06. In IDW they went on a date, then they got pulled apart because of their "duty", then they immediately end up shopping together offscreen. It's meaningless slop.
>>551655876The animations aren't lazy. You're just off-model.
Primitive ground shaking sex with sticks.
>>551658325>
People who like Uwuver, place explain why
>>551658325You are making up this idea they are even in a relationship in the first place. Your whole ideology is founded on schizophrenic lies you have convinced yourself of.
>>551658325Based modern chuds
>>551657831>just because they reference it a lot doesn't mean that Silver game would be about that"just because Shadow references Maria a lot"delusional
>>551658334>Tight like denims on a fat assso basically, "really cool"
>>551658530they don't have any meaningful things to say, their brains are slop
I....... am Gabs
>>551658554chest too small
>Silver and Blaze compromise and changethis has literally never happened, all their conflicts get resolved with the "in-sync" slop because they're supposed to be soul mates or some shit
>>551658472imagine the diseases.
>>551658408>they immediately end up shopping together offscreenThat's just fanservice. Nothing will happen until they get the spotlight again by Sega>>551658561It's how relationships work>You make me a better person>Without you I was lostYou are failing to understand the most common troupe of any couple ever
>>551658963Being in-sync sounds kino to me.
>>551658963Blaze gives up her duty as a princess to be with Silver, and Silver gives up saving the future so she doesn't die, so yes, it does happen
Relationships are antithetical to Silver as a character
>>551658647It would be the first character dynamics that is completely narratively one-sided from a lore and storytelling perspective.Blaze doesn't have Silver anywhere on her story, lore or character background meanwhile Silver doesn't works without Blaze because he is 100% dependent of constant companionship.Silver outdone Amy in simpness in a meta-narrative way.
>>551659198This but Shadow and not being immediately validated by everyone as being in the right by the divine grace of Sega
I grow bored of your foolish lies
>>551659310>Silver doesn't works without BlazeI suppose i'm not surprised an esl wouldn't understand anything that is said to him
>>551659563this gif is what IDW fans think Blaze is like
>>551659645Yeah, Silver has amazing lore and character depth and supporting background and characters such as
>>551659052Nah they just can't maintain the "star-crossed lovers" pretense without insisting upon itself.
>>551656398Star Wars RAPES your shitty jap holiday
Silver WILL get a game and Blaze WILL be involved
>>551659421
Sonic The Hedgehog™ ending is everyone dies, except tails.
>>551659864NYEOOOOOOOOOOOO nyaa
>>551659927Damn, we're based?
>>551659927now add whispercel licking krack's boots

sthgnic and sthgdowidw bump and archie bumpidw superior sage and archie superior sage
>>551659827The star crossed lovers subplot of Blaze is done with Sonic.Everything that relates to her problems with relationships and permanece due to her duties, was done in direct and explicit parallel to Sonic and his freedom in the two Sonic Rush games.Sometimes reading /sthg/ makes me feel I am being fucking gaslit or something, where the hell are you guys taking these things from?
>>551659767>amazing loreTime anomaly that needs to support the cast due to high stakes, check>character depthNot falling to trauma and using it as a way to grow better, check>supporting backgroundMultiple timelines, check>supporting charactersEspio, Amy, Sonic, Shadow, Knuckles, and every IDW oc, checkRead things thoroughly next time saar, you're falling way too much into memes as source materials.
*cucks Blaze*
>>551659310>it would be"would be"? It was and is. This is why people were confused about Blaze's backstory and called her a hallucinatuon, because none of her shit is relevant in 06.>>551659645Silver's entire arc is about Blaze.>>551659246>gives up her duty as a princess to be with SilverNo she doesn't.>Silver compromisesSilver does not change at all during 06, he's still "naive" the whole way.
I want to try making some fanartslop of very obscure/minor characters. Any requests? You can suggest multiple and I can try to have them hang out together!
>>551660410>Silver's entire arc is about BlazeLEECHver...
I have two older Millennial siblings and the last Sonic game was played was Sonic 2. They have no clue who Shadow is nor do they care.
I think all of you are disgusting human beings
>>551659927
>>551660428Illumina and Mother Wisp hanging out
>>551660410>Silver's entire arc is about Blaze.Blaze removed from 06 wouldn't change anything, best thing is that Silver tries to sacrifice himself, fails, then go fights solaris.
>>551660274Sonic Team wants Silver and Blaze to work that way but his entire conception is fucked.
>>551660192>archie bumpcute and in character slut>idw bumpvile
>>551660828Facts.
>>551660773fun fact: cats and snakes have similar skull shapes
>>551660719We're actually cute blobians.
>>551660487>>551660773Are we going to ignore the canon appearance of Silver in rivals had 0 mentions of Blaze? Her appearance in 06 was due to fan demande and that's it, she's not supposed to be next to him period.
Blaze is a filthy pedo because Silver is 200 years younger than she is
>>551660725
WE ARE IAN FLYNNWE WRITE THE COMICSWE FIGHT FOR MOBIUSWE HONOR SALLY'S NAME
>>551661195don't bring this here...
>>551661174me in the middle
>>551661174Me on the right
Argue all you want. Silver and Blaze will never be free of 06 and that story in that game defines them now and forever
>>551661061Blaze is Silver's mother
>>551661008>Are we going to ignore the canon appearance of Silver in rivalsRivals Silver was nothing character (and so was everybody else but it wasnt their 'canon' introduction) so yes I will ignore it
>>551661524Good, because it was kino.
>>551661174I oscillate between left and middle.>>551661524I hate that for Blaze.
>>551661174
>>551661524This but just Silver.
>>551660805> Oops we just wrote the wrong story> Twice But yeah, honestly, it seems they want to have it both ways, one story where Blaze is a parallel to Sonic and is defined by a impossibility of permanece which is the Rush lore that they consistently say it's the right one, and one where she is defined as Silver's companion where he needs constant guidance and Blaze works as his emotional support, that is post '06 that they constantly make reference to.
>>551662109this is kinda hot
>>551654531>>5516547674-panel comic of Rouge dressing up as Tails with that caption.

>>551662109I never understood the game thing.
>>551662801heh...based
>>551662109Wow I suddenly need to rub one really quick
>>551657908>a game based on Sonic Prime;p
Look! It's “A Ghost’s Pumpkin Soup”!
>>551662923let me see?
>>551662864this is a video game board.
I LOVE SHADOW
>>551663190Whisper spends all their money on fast food and Tangle puts the baby in the dryer.There I fixed your comic.
>>551663101Yes, but I mean as a counter to other discussions. I replay SA2 regularly, but it's not something I feel compelled to discuss in depth often because I've already spent years doing just that.I can understand if you want to talk about the more recent titles, but I get the feeling it's never about those. No one seems interested in discussing Crossworlds at length, or Rumble, and the opinions on Frontiers have settled as well.
>>551659927Holy rent free
>>551663190
>>551660736Here you go!
>>551663338Maria is so lucky
>>551663635
>>551661524That is my argument. I am trying to get Silverfags to understand 06 and Blaze matters. Potentialfags are the equivalent of expecting Shadow not to focus on the ARK; their expectations not being met is on them.
>>551663839
>>551663475nta, we still talk about crossworlds sometimes. Mostly balance/mechanics and new content. Anything outside of that is just jpfag vs westfag shit and characterfagging.
How is Silver related to Tanabata? >t. just caught up with the franchise after forces
>>551662109
>>551664059
>>551664270I LOVE SHADOW!
>>551660736>>551663637I do want to say that it's absolutely criminal that Lumina, Void, and/or Illumina didn't show up at all in Sonic Dream Team. Like... that's their whole thing! If there was any opportunity to bring them back, that would have been it. Still miffed about that!Also, no NiGHTS cameo either...
Blaze doesn't matter to Silver like people would like to say she does. What matters is the role that Blaze plays, which is the more level-headed companion to counter Silver's headstrong and hot-headed nature. His dynamic with Shadow and Espio make this pretty clear.Blaze has her own things to do, you can just make a whole character to pair with Silver. Which should've been done in the first place.
Is Morio Kishimoto a good game director?
>>551656883>"Beep Beep! Make way for a superior Silver explanation."
>>551664270
>>551664741Blaze "matters" to Silver because Sega wants it to matter.
>>551665476Seek help anthony
>>551665557Who now?
>>551664264He isn't, At all.It's all shipschizo shit on the same level of "Sonic is shy"
>>551664264>>551665746KILLYOURFUCKINGSELFSECONDARIES
>>551664264Silver and Blaze are loosely based on a story of a Princess and a Cowherder meeting, falling in love and being separated by their duties. Only being allowed to meet sporadically.
Sketch anon here. I got bored. Have a good day.
>>551666212Knuckles on the computer jerking it
>>551666212
>>551665476true
>>551665986lol no they are not.Not a single character profile, developer interview, official lore, dialogue, scene, cutscene or event EVER touch on that subject.That's on par to saying Metal Sonic is an allusion to Christmas because he has a Christmas themed wallpaper art.We are firmly, in headcanonville here.
>>551664264>He played ForcesI'm so sorry
Momentum or boost?
>>551655449It's incredible how many people deny Silver and Blaze's tanabata inspired love story. How many hints do you need?
>>551667346I have more hints that Sonic and Shadow are gay for eachother than for Silver and Blaze in any tabanata themed anything.
Another day, another letter sent or Sega asking for a redeemed Mephiles
Erm Amy is a girlboss
>>551667927Erm Amy is a friend of mine I talk to her on the phone
Erm Amy is a snack
Why did Amy Rose become God?
>>551665986"loosely" means its not baked into the characters at all and your headcanons are doing a lot of heavy lifted. Youre shadria without the substance, a cheap copy to ape off their success and it failed because no one wants to see the third big hedgehog be a retread of having a girl die for his development but worse because none of the deep baked attachment is there
>>551658530>>551658780Who are you quoting?
>>551668287None of the deep baked attachment is there ON TOP of having to ruin an existing character to make this happen at all
>>551665986> Blaze comes from the future Refuted over and over and over and over again by official sources.
>>551668185what does she taste like?
>>551668596Silvazefags so desperately want to retcon the Rush games because they don't actually care about Blaze, only what she does for Silver
Discussing a Gabs-tier headcanon is pretty much thread derailment of the highest order.
archiefags think this is good writing
>>551668906Huh? I don't care, I read Archie so I can jerk off.
>>551667927
>>551668748>>551668883>What do you like about Blaze>that she dies for Silver!!!oh my god bruh
>>551668906Them having human DNA means we can breed with them, so it's the best writing.
>>551668671strawberry and bubblegum
>>551663190>>551663635>>551663839>>551664059>>551664278This is not Sonic.This is not SonicThis is not Sonic.I'm legit seething. THIS IS NOT SONIC. I hate all the newgen "'"fans""".
>>551669617Well of course not, it's Whisper and Tangle!
Silver and Blaze are a couple in Sonic Team's eyes even if they don't want to confirm their relationship. Same deal as Sonic and Amy.
>>551669557Please...I Just want to see her paws...
Your mask is slipping, Sonamytard.
>>551669684>Ian and Evan's shilled fortune card slop
>>551668906>You, dear viewer, can impregnate mobians.IDW should take notes.
>>551669617Explain how it's any different from most of the shipping comics posted here.
>>551669971NTA but I can kinda tell what he's talking about because in the past fanworks that reference out of universe media for jokes was parody and for comedic comics or animations, but now it's just become commonplace in fanworks that are trying to be taken serious because they think characters spewing out pop culture references with weird sarcastic humor is the norm and fine because it makes them more relatable to the real world
>>551664734The people that wrote Dream Team don't any idea who are those characters. So it's kinda to be expected.
>>551669617stop being autistic about random fanart, it will be good for you
