When Iizuka decided that only male hedgehogs can go super.
Jack Thompson

Ryan Sanchez

Colton Parker
All three.
Jason Baker

Justin Adams
Claiming best burd.
Nathaniel Scott

Julian Hall
This happened?
Ian Garcia

Easton Hall
She's a bitch, but she's a sexy bitch.
Dominic Turner
Fine then I choose cat.
Ian Turner
Gameplay wise they retconned the Super Tails and Knuckles back in Heroes but the official word wasn't said by Iizuka until like 2013 or something like that.
Honestly I think the only characters that should have a super form should be Sonic, Blaze and Shadow. MAYBE Knuckles since he'd know how to use the ME and all that stuff but ultimately Sonic is the main protag so he needs a super form by default, Blaze is supposed to be Sonic from a different dimension so she gets a super form as well and Shadow was created using Chaos energy and the point in mind to make the ultimate lifeform/weapon and as such him having a super form is also default.
Anyone else having a super form besides Knuckles would just make the whole thing really fucking stupid in my opinion.
Luke Cruz
Mine ! also, best girl
Jayden Howard
unique taste
Chase Jackson
Anyone should have a super form so long as they're the star of a game and the Chaos Emeralds come into play somehow. They're chaos, they are the embodiment of plot devices, therefore if it makes sense for a character to have a super form as a plot device then it should happen.
Luis Walker

All mine!

Logan Young
Not many can claim to look this good and be pushing 50.
Gabriel Brown
are husbandos never claimed because /sthg/ is mostly straight guys?
Christian Evans
It did.
Amy and Tekno get stuck inside a UFO for some reason and end up on Earth, circa 1996. And there's a panel with them inside Number 10 Downing Street explaining their interplanetary predicament to ol' Tony.
I can't remember how that little side story either started or finished, though.
Sebastian Nelson

Samuel Kelly
...
Ethan Carter
yeah, probably
Jose Gray
I wanna be a useless piece of shit and play games with Cassia all day.
Levi Ramirez
Being attracted to anthropomorphic animals is pushing the definition fo both "straight" and "guys". I'm in the same boat, but let's not try and pretend we're normies here
Owen Rodriguez
...
Kayden Robinson
Diamond in the rough if you look past the crazy. Why are there not more fics with her?
Sebastian Martinez
So I suppose everyone in Dragon Ball Z should be able to go Super Saiyan because >plot device.
Caleb Davis
that takes me back. Something about they meet a good old scientist fella who is building some sorta space-door, and Tekno manages to make it work, all whilst they are being hunted down by some mad, alien-hunting loony of an army general. >you couldn't make this shit up
Leo Morgan
>Not many can claim to look this good and be pushing 50. must be the chaos energy, echidnas sure age well
Kayden Sanchez
Actually I think it was Sonic talking to him about a guy Amy and Tekno bumped into trying to conquer Mobius in Earth's name.
Though maybe he showed up twice. Wouldn't be the weirdest thing that happened in Fleetway.
Andrew Ross
nah because you need to be a saiyan to go super. humans cant do that
Alexander King
Gamma is best Waifu
Luis Hill
And you need to have chaos affinity to use Chaos Control. Anyone who isn't Sonic, Shadow and Knuckles doesn't have that.
Chase Young
Silver is Trunks, so he's gotta be able to do it too. Iizuka is basically just doing whatever Dragonball Z did.
Can't wait until he decides to bring Hyper Sonic back, but he'll just make it Super God Sonic.
Jace Cox
Super Saiyans use power from within, and need to be Saiyans. Super Sonic uses the power of the Chaos Emeralds. Not a good comparison.
Nice headcanon.
Christopher Ross
...
Angel Bailey
I guess I'll take her, since there's nobody left.
Jaxson Evans
But Sonic already beat many ancient Gods of Destruction with his regular Super Form
Ethan Martinez
>all the prime Rabbitfus are taken >well not all
Levi Parker
I have no idea why there's so few anons with husbandos. I thought we were quiet rather than non existant, but the survey said differently. I think we were more in earlier times and then dwindled over time.
I personally don't claim because the whole claiming thing can be annoying to some and because I'd feel kind of out of place but I'm all homo for the boys
Logan Hughes
> They're chaos, they are the embodiment of plot devices Usually I call bullshit when the McGuffin is used in obnoxiously inconsistent ways, but the 'chaos' in Chaos Emeralds makes me genuinely OK with it. They're almost SUPPOSED to be inconsistent bullshit that do different things at different times. And they're at least partially a genie-of-the-lamp style wish-granting device (I think?), so the fact that they do what the plot demands of them at any given moment is moderately acceptable.
Cooper Adams
Yep. But now he must fight Soreass! From the planet Earth... TWOOO.
William Watson
which one are you claiming there? mina or nicole?
Nicholas Nguyen
I should think that he's going for the one that still exists.
you are so kind hearted, lil Elise needs loving too
Adam Foster
A robot can't be a waifu. It's not even a living being!
Justin Edwards
Which doctor is better?
Matthew Taylor
A post or two is nothing. As long as there isn't multiple posts of shitflinging over waifus/husbandos I don't see the harm
Tyler Mitchell
>Which doctor is better? remember wily made zero
Elijah Price

Adrian Turner
its just a fun game to play with everybody, i meant no harm
Julian Sullivan
What is your feelings on Humans in sonic? Do you think they should avoid them? If not in what capacity should they exist in? Should the story/plot revolve around them like in the Adventure games and Shadow, or be more window dressing like in Unleashed? Or just go the route of Heroes and lost world that seem to exist in their own world. Or simply go the boom route of animal people.
Benjamin Martin
Yes, but Eggman made the Final Egg Blaster and his grandfather made the Eclipse Cannon.
Ryan Adams
We know that Wily, eventually, won. But Eggman probably had a more successful run while alive.
Samuel Scott
Unleashed route is best, with them occasionally being more important if the plot demands (usually anything to do with G.U.N.)
Adam Flores
Unleashed did the humans best. In fact, Unleashed did a lot of plot-related things best. Unleashed 2: Werehog-less Edition when?
Zachary Russell
I feel like it's too late to avoid animal people entirely, but I feel like they can coexist with Sonic as long as they don't take the spotlight away from the main characters, such as Gerald and the President in Adventure 2 or the G.U.N. Commander in Shadow.
Adrian Taylor
>Wanting to get the electric clap Don't be hateful towards yourself, user, it's not worth it
Josiah Walker
>Heard you were talking shit like I wouldnt find out.gif
Isaac Wood
>its too late to avoid animal people entirely
The main character IS an animal person.
Ryan Johnson
But Eggman is clearly insane and probably more ruthless.
Carson Anderson
Catgirl claimed.
Adrian Brooks
> Unleashed did humans best What specifically was good about Unleashed humans?
Cooper Martinez
...
Jacob White
Damnit, I meant humans.
Justin Smith
They graphically and design-wise looked like Pixar humans akin to Brad Bird's art. Also, every one of them had an easy to understand but still lovable personality, and a few of them actually helped the main characters and move along the plot without interfering entirely. It was genuinely well-done.
David James
Twitter turns them into video files, I used a site to download it as a MP4 then turn it into a gif with another site.
Austin Peterson
I can't actually remember: was she legitimately a catgirl by which we infer that her dad, the fat South American Generalissimo style President knocked up one of Blaze's cousins, or was she just a really committed cosplayer?
Leo Wilson
The president is like...the most unecessary superfluous part of Adventure 2 and it bugs me.
Ryan Lewis
Both the design and the fact that they were mainly background window dressing. It felt like a world that Sonic and friends actually lived in instead of having generic anime people clashing with cartoon animals. Most importantly, it made Eggman look like an actual human again. From Adventure to Shadow he was sorely out of place when compared to other humans, and everyone knows what they did to him in 06 to try and make him fit the pseudo-realistic Final Fantasy look.
Unleashed basically had the best visuals of the entire franchise in the modern era, with Colors as a very close second.
Jordan Wilson
The efforts appreciated, but ouch, it looks like the converters chopped some frames somewhere down the line.
I remember someone was able to get clean rips of the sprite gifs posted on Twitter for Freedom Planet 2, but I don't remember how they did it.
Adam Price
The tail and ears move independently.So I think she's actually a literal cat girl.
Camden Morris
They're both perfect, but for personal preference I'd have to go with Eggman
Leo Carter
Unless it's a specific plot-point that they ended up outside of their usual world, Eggman should be the only one SA2, Shadow, and 06 are the worst at handling humans, no game is particularly good at having them be there. Unleashed has the best designs for them, but I couldn't tell you which is worst in that regard.
Zachary Lee
A cat is fine too
Jack White
Eggman made Metal Sonic though.
Jose Evans
Does this look better
Ethan Young
Looks better now user, unless someone has a sharper eye.
Jayden Ortiz
Do you guys thing Big is too big or just big enough?
Colton Roberts
Remember to vote here for which show we do next. strawpoll.me/10952819 Cut off is at midnight in an hour and a half. Satam is currently in the lead.
Jeremiah Stewart
chimera
Ethan James
>Sketch Turner >Roadkill the Rat >Beat >The Altered Beast Damn, this is good shit. Who made this?
Liam Lopez
Not really. It gives Eggman an actual person to give evil demands to instead of just being some omnious guy on TVs, and it gives an explanation as to why Rouge is a double-agent who still fights G.U.N., since she's working for the President directly and is therefore outside of G.U.N.'s structure until 06.
Brody Brooks
OK, so you're talking in terms of their design and general inoffensiveness, rather than in the sense of "What are we supposed to infer that Sonic's World is like demographically".
In that sense I guess I'd agree that Unleashed's portrayal is the best of a bad bunch. Although personally I'd prefer the S1-S3K set-up, in that humans are just... not mentioned.
If you must have anonymous NPCs I'd prefer the Boom version. Animal people.
Kevin Roberts
Ok, the other just had 10 fps this one says 20 fps
Austin Roberts
Why is bayonetta a catgirl Why is Ristar monochrome Why is NiGHTs bedroom eyes Why do I want a new Altered Beast game made by Platinum Why is Bayonetta there even though she's as Sega as Atlus characters are Who are victy, hope, dux, lucy, Roadkill, Bahn, Grace, and Vanessa
Elijah Ross
That one has 20fps the other one had 10fps
Brandon White
>"What are we supposed to infer that Sonic's World is like demographically". Well, going off of Unleashed's interpretation, a wide variety of cultures and ethnicity similar to our world.
>Unleashed's portrayal is the best of a bad bunch. Why is Unleashed part of a bad bunch in this regard?
