So I've been told, but I just can't enjoy it as someone who knows these characters and loves em in another form, it just feels wrong and the way they're written doesn't sit well with me
I know Knooklus is the biggest point of contention for people, but I find the other characters are badly written too, particularly Tails
Nah, it's sporadically really funny and worth watching and the rest is generic kids show garbage. Plenty of episodes have 1-2 actually good gags surrounded by unwatchable trash. You'd get the best experience out of watching the handful of episodes that are mostly good throughout and then watching a clip compilation for the rest.
Pretty much this. It doesn't help that the mandated, once-an-episode fights are boring as hell, eat up the runtime, and break the pacing of episodes. If it went full sitcom, it'd be better, but even then, a lot of the comedy falls really flat, and when the jokes aren't just dry humor, the animation can't keep up with the material or voice acting.
I agree with this, there's a good joke or two per episode, so it's perfect for out of context clip compilations. But most of jokes are pretty meh.
I'm also not a big fan of the meta humor and "look at us, don't we suck" gags that the Sonic franchise was doing at the time.
That said Sticks is the sole reason I enjoy this show and I'd breed that badger in an instant.
This is why SEGA stuck with 3D shartoons instead of a doing a higher budget Sonic X/SatAM/AoSTH.
Sonic fans would eat up just anything and call it a masterpiece. They're like Pokemon shut-ins that only watched the first season of the anime and call everything else Pokemon knockoffs.
Animation is expensive. Especially action toons. You can’t profit off a show by itself. The show’s meant to advertise the actual moneymakers ie the merchandise. If the merch ain’t selling, then the show ain’t continuing.
Personally prefer ditzy airhead Amy from Adventure. Those type of characters can still be done pretty well today. No reason why she can’t be written as such anymore.

how so?
I try not to think about it

Breaking news: Cinemaphiletard finds out that a kid's show is a kid's show
Don't be like that. Kids shows can be good, this one just wasn't.
/co/tards don't know what the word "alright" means
It's really not as good as everyone says it is.
Breaking news: Sonic gay realizes nobody is impressed with modern Canadian cartoons.

boom > prime > x > adventures >>>> satam = underground
Why is X that high? I couldn't get through it.
He's a zoomer who seethes that the cartoons that came before he was born were better than the ones he grew up with.
Grounder is literally me. He should give it another chance.
Its more like a bag of sliced carrots but every 5-15 pieces there's a potato chip instead
I don't know what you meant by this
Seems like they meant it's mostly bland but occasionally good.
I like Amy
Her dunking on Eggman with "are you eating your feelings?" is one of my top 5 moments in the entire Sonic canon.
>a regular quip that would be common in any other show is top 5 moments in a sonic show
Sad

this is my favorite variant of her
Glad I'm not alone. feminist strawman voice of reason Amy with some stalker Amy mixed in is refreshing
As opposed to current Amy who doesn't love Sonic anymore.
Personally prefer ditzy airhead Amy from Adventure. Those type of characters can still be done pretty well today. No reason why she can’t be written as such anymore.
Supposidely it's because of Amy being elevated to core-4/replacing Knuckles as the core-3 status.
Why would that prevent her from being written as a ditz?
True
>pretty well written and funny show
Do you also find Cell in Hell funny?
It needed more jokes that weren't meta bullshit
Yeah, it’s a lot better than expected, mainly because the writers didn’t care and did whatever they wanted.
This, some gags come so out of left field that it just catches me off guard. This one's probably my favourite
Western Sonic is always superior to Eastern Sonic. It is known.
Chris-Chan chimped out over this show because of Sonic's blue arms
And they mocked him because of that https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LoFse5vWe_c
>Chris-Chan chimped out
Grass is green.
>I thought your middle name was "The."
>10 episodes later, it actually is
I miss Boom. It's a shame that they only got to use Vector like 3 eps before it ended.
It's a funny show and the best since Adventures. It's not some masterpiece but in terms of stuff you can watch with your kids it's good.
Reminder
She is now canon and voiced by Ventress and possibly Mai Shiranui/Ami Koshimizu in japanese
She's voiced by Aoi Yuuki AKA Tachibana GOD-SLAYING FIST Hibiki.
>voiced by Ventress
ok this was an unexpected voice connection
