      They're squirrels, hence the name Acorn. Sally just lacks a tail for reasons I don't remember.

        Her dad is a squirrel and her mother is a chipmonk. Typical of cartoon logic Sally looks like a clone of her mother and her brother looks like her dad minus the facial hair

        I don't think they ever settled on whether she's a squirrel or a chipmunk.

        That just sounds like bullshit given the last name.

        Aw but remember that Sally's main love interests are a hedgehog and whatever Antoine is supposed to be in this show. The Acorns love their race mixing.

      Only in the TV show, King Acorn was meant to be a fox and the Mother was likely a squirrel or a chipmunk. In the comic, they settled for Sally being a chipmunk, her father a squirrel and her mother a chipmunk.

              No, it's due to a particularly obnoxious fan who prominently put himself in view of everyone and tried several time to be the representative face of the fandom while he was repeatedly banned from different website and forum for refusing to shut up and calm down who also turned up to be a diaper fetishist.

              More organically, SatAM has lead to many people developing furry and mind-control fetishists.

    So how exactly did this and AoSTH wind up in production at the same time? Apparently the animators of each show didn’t know about the other? But that can’t possibly be the case.

      Well, the good news is, you'll get a complete answer today as this guy
      https://twitter.com/SatamHistorian/with_replies
      Is releasing a documentary about the work of Ben Hurst on this show.

      But the short answer is, it was supposed to be one show more in line with what the Archie Sonic comic was at the time as you can see in the pilot, there:

      Bu then it was announced they would make a second show at the same time, so they took the plot of the pilot and gave it a more serious tone, while also starting to make AoStH, with a more silly approach.

          Not the anon, but for me, the concept of Roboticization was fascinating.
          It was a carton show with high stakes. A bunch of rag-team uniting to defeat the power that be was also an instant hook.

          And I loved the banters between Sonic and sally. Also, the half-roboticized design of Bunnie had instantly hooked me. as aten+ something boy, I'll admit the character design of the female characters did something to me.

      He was? I don't recall. I could have sworn Sally was referred to as the leader, but that could be me remembering the comics over the cartoon. But even in the cartoon I remember everyone taking orders from Sally so it's weird they would call Sonic the leader.

        In one episode (the debut of Ixis Naugus in fact), Naugus used magic to hyptnotize Bunnie & Sally to reveal who Sonic is, Sally identified him as "their leader".

        Though I really wouldn't read too much into it: It was probably an executive decision to change the script to make it claim Sonic was the leader, despite the obvious evidence to the contrary.

        They probably thought boys wouldn't watch a show where the girl was the boss and not Sonic.

      I think it speaks volumes of this fandom when you can call the show where Robotnik was an evil overlord that conquered the planet and Sonic & friends are forced to fight for survival as "goofy"

      But the minute you don't revere the color saturated, overly-dramatic, anime inspired 3D games with the super forms & the edgy monsters as "Serious" , you get crucified.

            well, almost all Sonic fans liked the Adventure Games, so...
            Also, it's kinda funny, when you think about it. Fans thought that Sonic was the greatest thing ever by Adventure 2 and many loved the Advenutre game. There was still enjoyment for Battle and Heroes, but when the Shadow game came, it's not just that fans considered bad or that they even predicted it would be bad when it was announced, it's that it was actually expected that the Sonic Franchise was dying and that it was expected the next game would be shit.

            Like somehow, at some point, right after Heroes, the mindset was that Sonic was now a bad franchise. At least that's how I remember it back then, when I wasn't really a sonic of Sega fan, but was seeing it as a Nintendo fan.

            Thinking back about it now, it's incredible how fast the fandom turned sour after the death of the Dreamcast.

                Sonic had no real games to help ease the transition from 2D to 3D. He was more loose and finicky than the Greased Up Deaf Guy in Flickies Island, Sonic World in Jam was a tech demo, and R was just R. Xtreme was stillborn due SoA and SoJ's internal rivalry

          But I'm saying it goes further - like if you dodn't consider the Adventure games P E A K F I C T I O N or pray at the altar of Shiro Maekawa, you'll get fricking eaten.

              Yeah, but in the brief flashbacks you get with the regular characters, you get a sense of what they're all about and they are more or less in line with their game counterparts.

              And then there is Amy who is just
              "I love nature. Nature is great. Don't you think Nature is great, Sonic?"
              Because everyone involved is deathly afraid of making a girl who likes romance or femininity (which is weird because that is what Amy is known for)

    It's an interesting relic of the time, back when the IP wasn't as defined so you could make either a Looney Tunes ripoff or a dystopian adventure story and still have both of them work. As a kid I was kind of confused by it because none of the freedom fighters showed up in the games.

Maybe hate is too strong a word but I generally don't engage people if I know they're fans of the show outside of the people I know in real life, who don't qualify as fans anymore anyway since they're all grown up and have kids now.

      Purple suits rotor so much better its not even funny

      Part of the reason I love the FF is these guys aren't colorful, super powered critters fighting giant robots & cosmic monsters. They are normal furry people against insurmountable odds, carrying the torch of hope by building up tiny victories with teamwork & guile. All of them couldn't take on an Eggman boss fight, but together, they had a chance.

      Even the cyborg bunny had to wait until the comic got cooler to get upgrades enough to qualify as a "valid Sonic character". Until then, she was just a bunny with robot strength.

      The FF, The Chaotix & The Hooligans are my favorite groups because they are the closest thing to "ground-level" story telling that Sonic will ever be capable of. I'd have hoped that one day, SEGA could just import them into the games and just made them a rag tag group of normies inspired by Sonic who you can tack some side missions to.

      And this why I hate Forces so much - not only it failed to do what SatAM/Archie did 30 years ago, but it essentially destroys the need for a Freedom Fighters when any random fricker can pick up a Wispeon and be a Sonic level hero.

      And IDW just re-made the Freedom Fighters but made them worse by filling them with crying lesbians.

      Kinda off topic, but I really don't get why the writers think making them cry all the time is good.

        The idea of moderation is a foreign idea to modern writers. Crying occasionally when under intense sadness is normal, doing it all the damn time makes you look like a baby.
        Personally I blame My Hero Academia and Steven Universe for making them think crying all the damn time is acceptable.

                Since nobody has the imagination to come up with decent movesets for these characters...

                >Bunnie
                has access to boost flight, a rocket punch and a shield but they all cost a lot of rings to use. Can swing from things, Bionic Commando style.

                >Antoine
                Basically Black Knight moveset but with a twist: Antoine can have a "confidence" meter that build up with every successful attack, making Ant move faster, jump higher and have more ways to attack. But you get hit once, and Antoine is back to a coward and he moves slow and has weak options until he fills the meter again.

                >Sally
                I thought long and hard about this one, and came up with this conclusion - Sally could use Nicole to "hack" into badniks to create support drones or riding vehicles.
                See that Motobug? You can ride that Motobug. But they only last one hit & don't last long, plus the hack is very short ranged. By herself, she's Amy w/o the hammer.

                >Rotor
                I dunno. Something to do with snow and ice. Maybe he makes tools & weapons outta ice. Rotor is so weird and situational, he should just be NPC.

                Sally using Nicole as part of her moveset is such a fun idea.
                There's one SatAM fangame where she uses Nicole as an energy gun that also allows for double jumps.
                As for Rotor, walruses are interesting animals, maybe giving him some advantages related to water could work.

              Bark doesn't provide fishing gameplay. He might've also not been made by the main Sonic Team, so he gets the Waluigi tax.
              Rouge is a secret govement agent who also sometimes steals israeliteels, Fang is just a thief/bounty hunter. Also, bat tats.
              Shadow was meant to be in one specific story, but afterwards he was a more hero affiliated rival/resident anti-hero vs Metal Sonic just being a minion for Eggman.

                Ackchyually, Sega of Japan was involved with the manga. Ohshima said Amy was always intended for the games (they said she carries on Madonna's traits and also likely influenced her modern design but I digress), Charmy on the other hand is the manga immigrant who's a lot different.

                I think it's kinda sad people have these fights over characters because of the franchise wide problem of characters just not being used well. It's a real shame this isn't a better series.

                Honestly, people are already upset over their favorite characters being benched/not characterized favorably so I'm not surprised about the opposition to bring in more characters that traditionally shared the main character spot to the fight for the current dim lit spotlight.

                Firstly, I was correcting him anon. But yes, X characters are in the same boat as the others, closed off indefinitely. The most we've ever got from X are references like Vector's crush on Vanilla and Cosmo the potted plant in that official art that can easily be written off as a normal plant. I don't know about Tangle and Whisper, kinda doubt they'll go beyond name drops honestly, but I won't be surprised if they're used for some kind of party game spin off or whatever. They can't even use the ghost trio from the Unleashed short without permission from Marza, they got a small cameo recently in IDW but that was it.

        Which makes it extra weird since Sally is kind of obsolete without the rest of the fighters. Sally without the fighters is always going to be a completely different character; the reboot versions were practically skinwalkers which didn't sit right with a lot.

        [...]

        I don't understand why design is such an important feature to validate a Sonic character.

        I mean I know, autisim about character design is how Sonic got famous in the first place, but you think something more important would be the qualifier...

        like gameplay mechanics or overall function?

        [...]
        That's a big cope, due to the more brutal truth being Sally without the crew is kinda worthless

        It's more like they'd be redesigned no matter what and there were a lot of people who hated the reboot designs (at least back then) and prefer the original. Those same people also think their designs could fit and I agree to an extent but let's not pretend Sally wouldn't be changed. That and how Sally and Bunnie's tuffs are mustaches in game so they'd probably get rid of them or at least not make it a part of their muzzles similar to Tangle's.

        I'm certain they meant Bark's character, he's the muscle who's a neutral character that likes to fight strong opponents and to go snowboarding as a hobby, the only way his and Big's traits are aligned is when you strip them to being the muscle but a lot of other characters share that trait.

          I don't like much of it. There's good bits here and there but a lot is on about the same level as SatAM. Some of it's worse, some of its better. Few bits are genuinely great, like some of the shorts and a handful of games.

          I find it a bit funny too so its not entirely bad

          I mean of course it's not entirely bad. It had good ideas and the character archetypes and designs are nice. The background paintings were usually great. It's mostly writing problems that stick it at "boring at best." If you're aware of other cartoons like it, there's not much there for you. Meanwhile its sister show was "pretty good" and still has some value even if you've watched the classics it riffs on.

                90's Sonic was the peak, this is not debatable.

                >It's been long enough that "game with broken collision, unfinished core gameplay, a bad story, terrible controls, and consists of 10% loading screens" is hailed a misunderstood classic.

                Listen, I'm the kind of person who thinks fan fixes "count" as the original game.
                P06 doesn't just just tweak; it outright replaces entire chunks of the game. And even then it's just okay.

              She was their first furry crush. Same reason why some guys simp for Mineva Mink or why Russia has that one Gadget cult.

                Being voiced by Kath Soucie probably helped with that. Worked for Lola and Betty Quinlan anyway.

                Pick a less obvious euphemism next time.

                Not that anon, but her disposition is part of what makes her back and forth with Sonic interesting, at least personally. She's burdened by responsibility as a diplomat to be and diligently tries to make the most logical decisions. Compare that to Sonic being the living embodiment of improvisational finesse, and you can see them butting heads often; especially when both are big personalities. The spice is that she's a lot more like Sonic than she gives herself credit for, and admires him for being so free. At her worst it can make her look like a hypocritical killjoy (which rubs people the wrong way for a good reason), but most of the time she and Sonic have a mutual understanding of each other. Both in the show and the better written parts of Archie, the two are just as likely to have a genuine heart to heart as they are to snark at each other.
                tl;dr Sally's the planner to Sonic's improviser but they both understand each other in spite of everything, and that's fun.

        SOME people can't understand that appeal can actually be born of respect.
