This thread and the proceeding ones will be the main hub for general chat and any updates. Feel free to make threads of more specific topics, preferably ones with a substantial amount of content. Link them here as well as any updates to get more eyes on it.
Storytimes will be in a separate thread. Smaller fancomics will be in a general fancomic thread. Larger fancomics (50+ pages) can have their own thread. You can still post comics in this thread if it's in the single digits.
IDW comics can have their own threads but you can post previews of any kind in these threads as well as in the IDW threads.
Games can get their own thread. As in all games get a thread. Not each game gets their own thread. Same goes for cartoons series. At least for now. If we get more people and things get more active then more specific threads can be made if there's enough discussion for a single game or cartoon.
Try to be active in other threads that interest you.
I don't know what else to say. Let's see how things go and we'll figure out what to do as time goes on.
>>6 posting this here >IDW Release Dates: Fang the Hunter Issue #3 - 3 April 2024 Fang the Hunter Issue #4 - 1 May 2024 Sonic the Hedgehog: Spring Broken - 5 June 2024 Sonic the Hedgehog Issue #69 - 15 May 2024
I do wonder where anons will frequent when we get more threads and more people post in them. I still need to make a fancomic thread for small to medium storytimes.
Fuck, it's not a joke. And it was from 3 weeks ago. Well at least she will still put out some of part 2, but it really sucks what happened to her. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bSy0i8I1yPY
>>21 It might be good to mention or ask for changes or things to be fixed: >the ability to post the same image in multiple threads, mainly for reaction images and posting an update for another thread in a more general thread or announcing a storytime in another thread with an image >implementing youtube imbeds
>>6 Oh boy, I have so many comics to fill this board up with! >>22 https://desuarchive.org/co/thread/142917741/#142987797 In case the anon that was asking for me in the Tamers thread is reading, that's really sad news. I hope Gigi and the rest of the team are able to find some peace. I'll convert the videos into comic pages so we can at least storytime the last parts here
I've updated the website to point to our shiny new board, fingers crossed it attracts some visitors. We also just passed 1.5 million visitors! For any newcomers, here's the link:
I wonder if our other threads will be brought over and if that will include the threads for single series like A Sly Encounter and if that will include the Sonic adjacent comics. Not sure about the non-Sonic threads like the Klonoa one or the Psyn one. >>26 I'll start a new Unofficial Storytime thread later today with an April Fools Day Idol Amy comic. >>27 Nice! Getting more people is a priority, especially after we establish some threads some would like to participate in.
>>28 >Not sure about the non-Sonic threads like the Klonoa one or the Psyn one. I'd say they're honorary Sonic threads. Would be nice to have all the Sonic threads moved over at least, assuming it doesn't break things >I'll start a new Unofficial Storytime thread later today with an April Fools Day Idol Amy comic. Oh boy! >Nice! Getting more people is a priority, especially after we establish some threads some would like to participate in. Yeah, I'd like to do a Tamers thread with a substantial OP that covers most of the lore >>29 I have no idea. I get the feeling that most of the Internet is bots now, but the analytics are too coarse for me to tell what's going on. My guess is there's around 50–100 daily users but this blows up to a few thousand a few times a year. Once I move to new hosting I'll have a much better idea of what pages are being visited and how much traffic it generates. Still not sure who I'll go with for hosting though. The archived threads contain some spicy words and lewd anthro images, which limits options
>>6 SOoC Chapter 003 - Page 069 https://www.deviantart.com/justtheauthor >Rouge's mom Imagine! Oh, and I've been experimenting with DA's image parameters. When you click on an image and then right click to open in a new tab, you get something like this (I've removed the token since it's really long). If you change the jpg part to png, the image will be much better. you can also leave it as a jpg but bump up the quality. I recommend 95 (q_95) or 100 (q_100). We might also be able to fiddle with the resolution of the image too, but I'm getting "forbidden" as the result when I bump it up to the quoted resolution. https://images-wixmp-ed30a86b8c4ca887773594c2.wixmp.com/f/6b2277de-e665-4e75-9c22-a3db86f96470/dh5qs73-2a18086b-06c9-43e6-88d3-293e9143caba.jpg/v1/fill/w_1280,h_1798,q_75,strp/sooc_chapter_003___page_069_by_justtheauthor_dh5qs73-fullview.jpg?token=...
>>90 That might come to be a bit annoying if you want to do full chapter story-timing of comics for comics whose individual pages have been posted previously, like Okida's comics.
The loophole to this, is change a pixel or ad white strip to the bottom when you do a full chapter, but it might be considered bad form.
The alternative would be to not post updating pages of ongoing comics anymore, but I don't think everyone will be consistent with it.
>>92 It's not that hard to do. Thirsposter and I have both done slight changes to pages for various reasons such as getting them under 4mb so they can be posted on 4chan. And I can do updates like I occasionally do for A Sly Encounter in which I save the page at 99% and post it in the main thread. And without thread migration, as long as they're not locked, we can still post the pages in those threads and link them here.
>>103 Top KEK, it hurts but also funny. Sad that becoming gun wielding psychopaths might be an improvement compared to how they been portrayed recently
>>104 Hahahaha But yeah, being utter psycho paths would be better than pretending the characters still aren’t cheer leaders and saying they’re totally better now.
>>92 Please do not try to get around the image duplicate check. It's there because they count as extra space and our space is not unlimited due to no thread purging.
I'd need to do one of the following to get around it: - rewrite the entire media handling system from the ground up so each file is only stored once and duplicates are just links to it. This would either double the physical file count on the server and we'd hit inode limits on the host (if I use symlinks), or I would use rewrite rules to turn /media/hash/any_file_name.jpg into the correct file but then you could also refer to the same file as /media/hash/nazis.jpg or something equally vilifying towards the site. Plus it would turn all existing file links to 404 errors which could inflate our logs fast. - add automatic thread purging. I want to avoid this because it can be abused too easily. Unless I make it semi-automatic, and then it would need a lot of micromanagement.
Additionally, both solutions would be incompatible with the current admin panel which needs a ground up rewrite.

Other than threads for specific larger fancomics and Tamers content, what other threads should be made on here? I was thinking of a SFW horny thread (no nipples, no genitals, no sex) but would people go there to post or would they prefer posting it in the more general thread?
>>34 Move over those Acron genes, it's those Bat genes time! >>36 See, that's what exactly AI should be for >>98 Damn, those end credits are absolutely scathing! I am glad that they captured the fun of the Super Sonic fights at least >>101 I'm just glad the Konductor got >>69 >>109 It's those sluts! And Ray's got the goggles and scarf! >>110 lmao >>122 >Please do not try to get around the image duplicate check. Yeah, fair enough >inode limits Man, those are such bullshit. >rewrite the entire media handling system from the ground up I'd avoid symlinks since it doesn't mitigate the inode issue. I ended up doing what desuarchive does and store the image under the unix timestamp of the first time it was posted, with all later posts linking to that image. It avoids hash collisions and 404ing the existing images, assuming only within-board duplicates are allowed. >add automatic thread purging I agree, it's best to avoid that if possible >>146 I'd like to see a fangames thread and am planning on doing loreposting thread so I have somewhere to dump all my schizo theories about Sonic being the ultimate lifeform and Metal Sonic being powered by lustful thoughts. Seriously, he's powered by a 250cc 4-valve Orgone Fusion Engine. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orgone. I'm not sure a horny thread would be all that useful since we can go full NSFW in /pco/ and /coq/
>>146 I suggest we have a thread solely dedicated to Mordred Hood and his lordlyness...serious answer maybe a thread to talk about what we want to see from franchise perhaps
>>147 I encourage people to make threads they feel like they can contribute to consistently (within reason). >I'm not sure a horny thread would be all that useful since we can go full NSFW in /pco/ and /coq/ I do wonder how often others go to those threads. But the horny thread would be for those that aren't porn but pretty close. Then again, I don't know what mods think of mobian nudity. When I think of NSFW, I think of naughty bits and sex. >>148 Unironically if you got enough content then go for it. >>154 That's a good one! Someone that's really into that should start a thread and do things like recommendations or places to find fanfics. >>155 >Something I think TP said they'd do. Agreed! >>20 >>166 If there are any drawanons that come here often and willing to contribute then sure.
Im kinda worried that this community we are building might fizzle out if we dont try reaching out to other places once in a while. With the /co/ thread on pluschan and 4chan we at least had new anons who could glance at a Sonic thumbnail and join in out of curiosity, but now we are isolated on a separate board.
>>174 It is a shame the Archie Ride ended before we got the board but if anyone was going to come over here they probably would've already. Best thing is to reach out to other places. Preferably not in the bait threads. We can still get more active and post stuff here.
>>178 >if anyone was going to come over here they probably would've already Not to dis on the developer's name play with ussr, but would any newcomer on pluschan see this and think that it is a Sonic board ?
>>219 I understand that it doesnt have to be an issue if a big enough community knows it as that Sonic board with a russian name, basically become part of its known identity. But until that happens we cant depend on onlookers to build that.

Friends do fight from time to time (hopefully not physically) but they always make up and get over it. And of course another bonding moment for Sonic and Tails.
>>148 Well now I'm considering a Remington thread! >>155 I'll let them know when the next episode drops! >>156 >the genesis is only for research Boo! >>161 Sally is 100% playing 5D chess here >>168 >I do wonder how often others go to those threads. Your image certainly makes a good case for that sort of thread! >>180 Nice! >>224 I'll email grabber.zone at least, but here's some places I'm aware of:
https://boards.4chan.org/vg/catalog#s=sthg We all know this one. It's the fastest Sonic general on any imageboard and while plagued by funposting and schizos, many of their anons are actually fun to talk to. I'd recommend reminding them we're around every so often
https://www.sonicstadium.org/forums/ Only had a quick look, but it's been around forever. Lots of posts, but far more clean cut than an imageboard (no naughty words, or posting entire issues of IDW)
https://forums.sonicretro.org/index.php?forums/general-sonic-discussion.1/ I actually used to read this forum a lot, although I never joined since they take themselves a little too seriously. Less active than it used to be, but maintains a core of users. The youngest regulars seem to be in their 30s. I doubt they'd be interested
In the short term I'm hoping we can grow organically and get to the point where this place becomes know for high quality and fun discussions about Sonic. >>231 Cute and canon! >>233 It was on 8chan, but it's been archived and continued here: https://8chan.moe/fast/catalog.html It's pretty dead though. Fair warning, while they're unaffiliated with the original site, I looked at some of the other board names and noped the fuck out >>240 lmao >>241 Nice to see them all getting along again >>242 One of my favorite things that's consistent across most versions of Sonic is that he doesn't hold grudges. And by this I mean he'll let bygones be bygones for characters like Knuckles, Shadow, Blaze, and Silver despite them trying to kill him, since they've settled their differences
>>245 Wow, and I thought I was too wordy! >>246 That's honestly adorable >>248 It'd be nice to see them post here >>249 Oh man, I'm pretty sure it's been deleted now, but I still remember Kuta's post where he zoomed into one of the Sonic 4 images and quoted the rgb values of Sonic's eyes to prove they were green. Pretty sure they banned him after that
>>253 >but I still remember Kuta's post where he zoomed into one of the Sonic 4 images and quoted the rgb values of Sonic's eyes to prove they were green. Pretty sure they banned him after that Holy kek. I can't believe the actual autism over green eyes.
>>27 Some notes in regards, prehaps remove the "Current plus4chan thread" link or make it redirect to the discussion board, i feel it would be a wiser decision, unless there are plans to archive the plus4chan threads.
In regards of draw threads i have some questions: Should NSFW be forced to be descriptive in case of fetish? I suspect people will also post their progress with their fancomics and animations, but would fanfics and Sprite animation be allowed (as long as it has sonic characters in it)?

You can still post links to fapfics. >Fetish stuff that doesn't break the first rule is fine. I don't kinkshame but I know that the Sonic fandom has some... interesting tastes. >Keep posting moderate. Posting several or a dozen at a time is fine but not dozens.

If you can't then that's fine. >You can still hornypost in the general thread. As always, these threads are just for those that want a concentrated place for a specific topic.
>>295 I really enjoyed that. The artist is obviously influenced by jon gray and that's really cool and unique among fan artists. >>296 Ew, water tentacles >>297 Hey, no problem. I literally just stumbled upon it.
>>301 I have no idea what you're implying! >>305 >I really enjoyed that. The artist is obviously influenced by jon gray and that's really cool and unique among fan artists. Shame we never got more. It'd be cool to see another fan revision of the story.
>>255 It's the original "Sonic's arms are not blue!" >>265 Oh boy, Sonic's about to become an accessory to warcrimes! >>274 >Some notes in regards, prehaps remove the "Current plus4chan thread" link or make it redirect to the discussion board I've got it redirecting to this thread now >unless there are plans to archive the plus4chan threads. Everything must be archived! Unfortunately, my 100% professional and not at all cobbled together code's mangling the thread links (probably because I didn't consider boards with 4 letters in their name). Everything else seems to be working at least!
>>282 >>284 Beyond the "gay" aspect, when you are the official voice of a character for what is mainly a child franchise, it is always bad optic to expose to your followers porn of any sort. Even if it was straight porn, he would have probably come up with the "hacking" excuse regardless. That or "my dog accidentally used my phone".

Knuckles and the Chaotix Issue 1 Page 6 https://mobiuscomics.com/knuckles
Super strength, gliding, chaos powers, and he can take a lot of punishment? Knuckles is the full package! And this version of Knuckles isn’t a dummy either. He can be a little gullible and naïve but I doubt anyone will take advantage of that.

>>487 I feel like Eclipse has been getting more popular in the Sonic community over the years. Shame he can never come back because Sega wants to forget Archie existed. >>488 Penders is something else.
>>489 Eclipse was neat, I really like his thing with his evil wisps as for world building wise, those aliens interact and were aware of each other. thats cool. I hope the movies give me some of that alien interactions since it's entirely built off it more than any sonic canon so far. I'd like to see if the owls (who themselves are possibly babylonian) knew about the black arms. all sorts of stuff you could do
So an article from a producer said The ‘SONIC’ films will become 'Avengers-level events' “Big, exciting stories that have a lot of different characters”
What do we think about that and the sonic movie cinematic universe? Honestly if they were to do some Avengers type movie, I think Sonic Heroes would be good for that first real type of that.
How do I get into Sonic? I remember finding the blue hedgehog around internet two decades ago but didn't really put a lot of thought on it, I recently watched the Jim Carrey movies and liked them a lot, I also watched the 90s OVA. What eshould I play/read/watch next?
>>489 >I feel like Eclipse has been getting more popular in the Sonic community over the years. What gave you that impression ? More fan art of him being made recently ?
>>505 Yeah I've been seeing him pop up more than other characters that have shown up more often in Archie. Probably the most popular reboot only character.
>>458 The JoeAdok omnicanon continues to grow! >>464 For all of his sexy art he also draws the cutest Sally >>469 Knuckles looks absolutely adorable here >>477 I get the feeling thiss will get close to 100 pages >Imagine if the curse one was this long.

He's a great replacement for Mephiles since they couldn't use him, and provides an interesting twist on Shadow's backstory >>495 He's just like me fr fr >>497 I like the idea that future films can lay the groundwork for more tv series and specials
>>500 /sthg/ has a good guide on the definitive versions of the games to play here: >Sonic Game/Mod Recommendation Spreadsheet: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1Uk5U8jY_RPZF9m_gmPfSOfCngAOSAxy393dsQVPoOyQ/edit#gid=0 >Perfect System Collection: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1nnOjrAPad6L7Bvi_wKMcVJqD_ql8MLjH/view I recommend playing S1-S3&K, SA1&2, Mania, Heroes, Unleashed, Colors, Generations, and Frontiers at the very least. Shadow and 06 if you want to see the end of Shadow's character arc, Secret Rings if you want more Maekawa Sonic, Black Knight if you want to see the end of Sonic's character arc, and Lost World and Forces to see the conclusion of Tails' character arc that started in colors (and for OC dress up fun in Forces).
The first two Riders games are fun, although the second one is much more accessible to new players (the third requires the kinect). The three racing games are also fun, and Transformed's easily blows Mario Kart out of the water. It's pretty much Diddy Kong Racing done right.
For tv shows, Boom's an easy recommendation, especially the second season. SatAM and AoStH are great too, but complete opposites in tone. If you don't like one you'll probably love the other. Underground's surprisingly solid if you can put up with the songs interrupting the action. It had SatAM's showrunner working on it so it ended up being a lot more continuity-focused than you'd think. DVD order is a must for watching any of these shows.
For Sonic X I'd recommend watching in Japanese since Sonic swears in that one and the plots aren't butchered by 4kids. If you find it boring, you can just skip ahead to the game adaption episodes since they flesh out SA2's storyline under Sonic Team's supervision. Oh, and there's Tamers12345's continuation of Sonic Underground, which is this bizarre mix of Always Sunny, the Venture Bros, and Newgrounds animations. It's not for everyone, but it's unironically one of my favorite shows.
For comics, you can't go past Archie, but Fleetway is great too. The tone's very different and many non-Brits find Fleetway Sonic abrasive and rude (especially to Tails). There's also In the Claws of Robotnik, a one-off French comic that sort of predicted the plot of Sonic Adventure. I'm not really a fan of IDW, but the Bad Guys and Scrapnik Island arcs are really good
>>502 I still can't believe I didn't commission that comic!
>>518 Yes it's great. A lot of suffering and Usagi is a great (and dense at times) protagonist. I find myself blazing through an entire thread of pages. Also lots of good memes.
And this thread has hit bump limit. Still a while to go before we hit image limit as well and have to make a new thread. >>520 Enjoy the meddling protagonist, karma being karma, and FEUDAL JAPAN.
>>522 I think bump limit is 300. Image/video limit is 350. We never have to worry about the former since threads don't get archived or deleted but when we hit the image limit, I'll have to make a new thread.
>shadow getting his own year thing As if he didn't already strangle hold the franchise before hand, and other characters still getting sidelined. Man, this series fucking sucks
>>517 I really need to read that sometime, and catch up on all those TMNT shows and comics >>533 Know I know how Tails fans felt when Knuckles completely upstaged him in the second film ;_;
>>543 That's a pretty cool look at Angel Island. And the Sky Sanctuary! That thing floating alongside it is pretty cool when you think about it, and also is probably alien made too.
>>545 Yeah, I always love seeing artists' takes on Angel Island, especially when they don't show the same front as S3&K. The lenticular clouds coming up from Red Mountain are fantastic, and a cool way to obscure Sky Sanctuary. Speaking of, I'm 100% convinced it was made by the same people that made the Gaia temples. While the other 7 are powered by the chaos emeralds to help Light Gaia fight Dark Gaia, the Sky Sanctuary is powered by the Master Emerald and serves as a literal sanctuary for people while the world is shattered >>549 Genuinely one of my favorite ships. It explains so much about their awful decisions
>>550 With frontiers establishing the ancients made tech that specifically interacts with the emeralds. I literally would not be surprised if they said at some point that was their doing with them learning about the Gaia shit and decided to have some contingency.
you know, while I do kinda like doing this theorizing, i'm still kinda meh on the ancients themselves too. They weren't really that compelling to me in the game. And from what i've seen of the dlc for the most notable ones, they're just expys of the cast. kinda lame
Sonic and the Freedom Fighters Issue 6 Page 3 https://mobiuscomics.com
With the disappearance of the Prower family, why are the Sommersbys still here? Why were the two families there to begin with? Good questions! Maybe they’ll be answered eventually. Anyway, the Freedom Fighters have a lead on where that last chaos emerald is. But who’s that in the last panel? Keep in mind, this is the Prime universe. This character might be different from what you remember.

>>551 Nice to see him branch out of Sonic comics >>552 I could see them being the ones that constructed the Gaia temples, but would've preferred to see the Owls or Echidna doing that, or at least some culture that originated on Earth.
Yeah, I'm not much a fan of the Ancients either. They're yet another ancient civilization with imminence power that got wiped out or disappeared (Echidnas, Babylonians, Owls, Nocturnus Echidnas), and the chaos emeralds not originating from Earth just raises further questions. What did Light Gaia use to defeat Dark Gaia millions of years ago? What are the chaos emeralds really? What's the origin of the master emerald (we know it originated from Earth)? Why would emeralds from another planet be controlled by the master emerald?
The Ancients we do interact with were just expies of Sonic, Tails, Knuckles and Amy. It was handled fine, but didn't really add much to the story
>>580 Best dressed couple! As much as I love the gay duck, I'm way more excited to see Maw get to do things outside of Eggman's influence >>585 Claiming these twinks so they can't help out Eggman! >>588 If only KnuxRouge wasn't already established in this comic ;_; Also, lmao at Sonic's keyboard background >>591 It's bad enough that Eggman's trying to kill Sonic, but suing him as well? Truu farr! >>595 The scenery really is fantastic in this comic >>596 Don't make me post the pregnant Sonic music video again! >>598 As much as I loved seeing Knuckles on the big screen, I'd have liked to have him saved for the third film >We live in a society Imagine if Tails just straight up shot Robitnik! >>599 I was honestly pretty surprised to see Sticks show up. Still, she's a pretty versatile character, and worked well in Okida's comic
>>608 >What are the chaos emeralds really? What's the origin of the master emerald (we know it originated from Earth)? Why would emeralds from another planet be controlled by the master emerald?
When you think about it, the game didn't really explain what they are. Just WHERE they came from, so people expecting more got fucked.
And of course, the Master Emerald, which adds a whole bunch more questions as you said. Literally why does it control rocks separated by lightyears? Does that mean there's possibly more sets? Like I really can't believe the thing was barely elobarated on in a game supposedly to explain those things. Just another shitty "until next time!" teaser shit, which they also did for some god that will maybe show up later or some shit.
Like one thing I honestly kinda thought they would expand on was the special stages and their connection to those. Like I wondered if the aliens knew about that weird constantly shifting places their rocks went to sometimes. But no, there was no acknowledgement whatsoever. So I guess those things really just are gameplay only thing. All of that stuff kinda makes me think they half assed it. Which honestly could explain alot of things about the game
>>608 >Best dressed couple! As much as I love the gay duck, I'm way more excited to see Maw get to do things outside of Eggman's influence And it's pre-metal mouth Maw, too! Slowly introducing characters that later on become Egg Bosses. >>612 Either it was made by a known (or speculated) ban evader or the tolerance for Sonic threads managed to get worse.
https://twitter.com/GyattFORCES/status/1777921264704962936 Can't wait to see this kid do official Sonic comic art after the franchise changes publishers a few times.
>>615 Doubt it. That would mean no Amy or she gets cucked. And then there's the whole "bestiality" thing that made everyone lose their mind when 06 came out.
i had this idea of making a small sonic fan comic jam. would be fun to see people here draw something, even if it's their first time. rules that i would offer would be: >1 page minimum 5 pages in max (pic relate would be the template for the pages.) >1/2 weeks deadline. >it can be about any canon (or combined, but you have to keep it simple seeing you have 5 pages at most.) >No NSFW (Mostly because it's boring, lewds can be used if it's done tastefully however.) I'm not sure how it should be run however, would be better if it was run on it's own thread or it takes place on the General chat.
>>616 Adorable >>617 True, maybe she’ll like touch his chest or something to revive his heart. Something like that. >>618 Not a bad idea, but we would need more people if you wanted some guaranteed entries, and yeah general chat is where the few we got mostly post anyway.
>>626 i actually just made it to post it here. I was listening to "all the joy In life was gone once you left" by sewerslut on repeat while i was drawing because the music fits kit like a glove.
> CinemaCon 2024 only got a very brief look at Sonic the Hedgehog 3 since it barely wrapped production. The brief teaser showed Jim Carry’s Dr. Robotnik in his lab, but he’s gained weight and has let the place go to the dumps with it being full of junk. He’s let his hair go crazy and now has a noticeable belly. Robotnik jokingly says that he’s been binging “carbohydrates.” His assistant, Agent Stone (Lee Majdoub), comes in and says, “We found him.” Stone presents Robotnik with one of Sonic’s blue electric quills, and, as he’s done before, Robotnik licks it and tweaks out. He yells, “Let’s do this!” to Stone’s face, which then cuts to a montage of Robotnik getting his hair cut by Stone and getting a fresh look with his game-accurate mustache, bald head, and depraved-looking eyes.
>The Sonic the Hedgehog 3 footage then cuts to Robotnik and an entire gang of henchmen, all armored with laser guns, waking up Shadow the Hedgehog in a cryotube. Shadow opens his eyes, which are bursting with red electric energy. We then cut to Sonic (Ben Schwartz), Tails (Colleen O’Shaughnessey), and Knuckles (Idris Elba) facing off against Shadow in the middle of a huge city street at night. Shadow is noticeably dead silent as it’s still not revealed who the voice actor is. Knuckles jokes that this new Hedgehog is much stronger than the last one he faced, to which Sonic hilariously replies with, “You Mean me?”
>The real money shot of the footage is Shadow the Hedgehog riding a motorcycle in the night sky over some skyscrapers and then using it to bounce himself towards Sonic, who is flying upwards at him at full speed. We see Sonic’s bright blue power clash with Shadow’s bright red energy in the night sky, looking like it’s straight out of an anime. The final shot of the exclusive footage showed Robotnik and Sonic away from a ring portal on an empty road. They both look grumpy and like they can’t stand each other’s company — implying that they’re going to have to work together to defeat Shadow.

Happy birthday plus4chan! >>639 Tamers thread has been made! Wanted to get it started early since the next episode should drop in a few days >>609 Canon character x blatant self-insert are genuinely my favorite type of ship >>610 I'd be fine with them not explaining it at all, but to just say they're from another planet and then refusing to elaborate is just terrible worldbuilding. That, and knowing they'll just drop that thread in the next game is extremely frustrating. Personally, I'd prefer if the chaos and master emeralds originated on Earth
>special stages 100% agree. These emeralds are canonically (somewhat) sentient and not only are they able to open warp rings to the special stages, but they seem to be doing it deliberately to test anyone who enters to see if they're worthy to hold them. We also see the challenges change from game to game so they're likely altering the challenges to suit the situation. Personally, I think they're trying to help Sonic become stronger and to hone the skills he will later need to save the world >>611 He really is working hard to banish Sonic from the board. I wonder if he's going mad now he doesn't have our threads to shit up? >>613 I actually prefer him without the metal mouth, way less creepy! Speaking of Egg Bosses, I hope Vin Diesel/Axel will be showing up to teach them the meaning of family! >>615 They won't even include Rouge because she's too sexy, there's no way they'll bring up Sonic's human women fetish >>618 Sounds fun! >>631 Sounds like they're making some fairly large deviations from the game's plot, but they did a great job with the last two so I'm not worried >>632 Best girl's back! >>633 He got hit by one too many tiny rocks ;_;
happy birthday to the site >>642 >Tamers thread has been made! Wanted to get it started early since the next episode should drop in a few days Neat! Be sure to tell your fellow tamers fans
>>644 Tamers usually releases new videos every two weeks so I'll let them know when they start their next thread on 4/co/. Our special friend's been shitting up those threads lately too so I'm sure they'd appreciate somewhere comfy to post >>645 Another edgy Silver for the collection!
>>648 >Seriously?! That sucks It's only a recent thing, but there's way more posters in those threads so he gets drowned out. Hilariously, he acts a lot like the previous schizo in the Tamers threads, who turned out to be a 16yo incel from Panama
