I realized something while watching this review. I, like you, thought Chris' attachment to Sonic was unnaturally strong given how little time he and Sonic spent together, and I thought he should've felt more attached to Tails, Amy, and Cream since he spent more time with them. But then I realized that's exactly why he felt more attached to Sonic. Chris views his mother and father as his parents, even though his grandpa and maid (and also kinda his butler) are the ones parenting him. There's a deleted/trimmed flashback scene from the Japanese version where Chris was waiting for his mother and father to come home for Christmas, and when the door opens, it's not them, but Ella with two presents they sent because they weren't coming after all. I think all that was left of that scene in the dub is him looking sadly at the trainset they sent him, which makes him look spoiled and ungrateful. His natural, biological longing for attention from his mother and father, aggravated by their broken promises, shaped his attachment style so that he craves the attention of whoever pays him the least mind. Just like he wishes his mother and father could be around while feeling like his grandpa and maid aren't his official parents, he wants Sonic to stay and values him as a best friend more than Tails and the girls. Him kidnapping Sonic was him trying to take control in his life. He's never been able to get his parents to stay, so he wants to get someone to stay.

I hate how the dub handled Chris’s episode, making it all like “oh but you’re my best friend, Sonic!” It’s different in Japanese: Chris asks Sonic why he’s been by his side all this time, and why Sonic went along with him instead of going back to his world, and Sonic replies “because you saved my life” Chris gets upset and asks if Sonic has only been with him because he feels like he owes Chris, and questions if they are friends, and Sonic says “friendship is free will” like you can’t force friendship, dude. Chris realises how he’s been holding Sonic back, and notes how in the past few days Sonic hasn’t even been able to run free because of him, and realises that he is a “bad friend” But in the dub he only lets Sonic go because Sonic is like “yOu’eR mY fRieNd, aNd we’Ll sEe eAch otHEr aGAiN”

Cosmo is really underrated. Unlike other original characters in Sonic X, Cosmo was actually useful, as she translated the Metarex language and supported the group, in fact, without her, Sonic and his friends wouldn't be able to stop the Metarex. She is also adorable with an shy and clumsy personality who has air sickness and doubts herself. Her friendship with Tails is the highlight of her character, making the ending heartbreaking. Tails also was kind of an badass when Shadow chased Cosmo to kill her. I do like Sonic X a lot, but the flaws keep it from getting any better for me.

One thing I really don’t like is how undermined and sidelined some characters were. For example, Tails is EXTREMELY nerfed. We barely get to see his friendship with Sonic, he almost never fights (even though we all know he can), and he BARELY EVEN FLIES. It’s really unfortunate because games at that times were giving a completely different image of him. Amy is also extremely weakened (I mean come on they seriously nerfed her hammer and her overall skills) and Cream is shown to be capable of fighting, yet rarely ever does. These characters are sometimes only there to be there, or to end up in trouble and be rescued by Sonic. The only main animal characters who actually get to “show off” in that sense are Sonic and Knuckles. While yes, we all know they’re accomplished fighters, but the show treats the others like they’re nothing and can’t handle anything on their own. And yeah, Chris is an extremely annoying character who mostly stole Tails and (sometimes) Amy’s roles. Edit: also remember all of Tails’ fights in Sonic Adventure? He doesn’t fight any of them in the show. He mostly literally stands there and watches as Sonic fights Eggman and Chaos 4. It’s really sad honestly, since these games were trying to develop Tails as an independent hero on his own. Same applies to Amy in this game and Cream in other character-building moments in Advance and Heroes.

Okay this is coming from a guy who is not that deep in to Sonic yet but while I experienced Tails being a bad ass fighter in Sonic Mania, where he is my favorit character to play as, I found his depiction in Sonic X interesting. Its been a while since I watched the show but I remember a decend amount from season 3 and Tails is redicilioues in season 3. Yes he has little to no combat capebilities in this show to the point that even Metarex grunts are a threat to him but in return his tech geniues thing is brought up to 11. He build a giant space ship, with warp function, an energy shield, a security system, a hangar with multipple space jets, laser guns and that giant Sonic power canon. And Tails serves as both enginer and capt of that ship. What did mania Tails ever do in the tech departmeant? Build a plane? Hack one of Eggmans traps? Its as if Tails rearanged his skill points and put everything in his tech skills. Also the fact that he is not much of a fighter kinda makes it cooler that he still has the guts to fight to his last breath if he is cornered. Its been a while but I remember Tails being pretty dam awsome in Sonic X.

I think it's safe to say that the writers of this show had little to no idea how to write for a majority of Sonic characters. I also have a hunch that they thought kids simply wouldn't relate to them, hence why most of the story seems to be told through Chris Thorndyke's eyes. Putting so much focus of this human kid character was such a big mistake in my opinion! Imagine making a Batman show where most of the focus is not on Batman, but on some kid who goes to school! Then when something bad happens to him Batman just pops out of nowhere, saves the day, and we focus on the kid looking wide eyed and going "Wow!"

The reason Shadow's character arc didn't feel finished was because 4kids (who ordered the 3rd Season get made back when they had the ability to do that) intended for their to be a 4th Season which the company teased until they went bankrupt. 4kids used to be able to get things made which led to Yugioh Capsule Monsters & the Pyramid of Light Movie in addition to everything relating to Viva Pinata. There are actually some fans of Sonic X who believe that 4kids actually had full storyboards for Season 4 Episodes locked inside some vault. I remember the days when people tried to pass off drawings of Metal Sonic in the X Style as being real leaked screenshots. 4kids going bankrupt in 2011 was officially the end of Sonic X.

Sonic X is unironically one of my favorite animes, despite its cheesy dub and other stuff. My favorite episode is episode 19, Sonic’s Scream Test! The haunted castle is my favorite original location in Sonic X, and the Japanese version even has a unique soundtrack! I always wondered why the ghosts took almost everyone hostage and trapped them within some kind of demonic pocket dimension, and why the captives became unconscious upon being pulled into it. The scene where the ghosts begin kidnapping the castle visitors is my favorite for that reason. Maybe the hostages would turn into ghosts themselves if they were kept in that realm long enough? Maybe the ghosts were gonna eat them? It sounds silly, but thinking about things like that is why that episode is my favorite.

I agree with you that Helen should have been part of the main cast and not Chris. Not only is she far more relateble than Chris due to the fact that she isn't rich, but she also provides a nice contras between herself and Sonic. Sonic is all about speed and running fast. Helen on the other hand can't do those things, because she's stuck to her wheelchair. Sure, swaping out Chris for Helen would require a lot rewrites, but I'm sure that would have been a far better end product than the 1 we got in the end.

If I'm being honest, I feel the scenes between Shadow and Chris worked fairly well. I think it has more of an impact if it's a human trying to convince him not to destroy Earth and the only reason Chris is able to convince him is thanks to the resemblance he has with Maria. I think the root of the issues people have with Chris is due to the way the writers mishandled his character. The serious problems he faces are told but not shown or are contradicted a short time later. It's explained to us that his unhealthy attachment to Sonic is the result of his parent's unintentional emotional neglect and because he doesn't have any friends his own age. The latter is almost immediately contradicted by introducing a trio of kids who appear to have been close to him for a while and the former situation is screwed up by the way his parents are portrayed that leaves Chris looking like an unreasonable, spoilt child who doesn't appreciate the efforts of his parents. It's true that he's extremely rich but that brings its own set of problems, one of which is potentially alienating him from his peers and another is that his parents think they can make up for their absence with gifts and toys. Concerning Chuck and the servants, another commenter (ILoveJesusMySavior) explains it better but what it boils down to is that they aren't his parents, and no matter how much they love and try, they just can't fill that void.

Ok so, other than Chris and a handful of characters that have really high pitched voices(Cream in particular,) my favorite thing about the show will always be the voice cast. I really, REALLY miss J Griff as Sonic and Shadow, and Lisa Ortiz as Amy. For what it’s worth Jason probably can’t really voice Sonic any more, but I’d love so much to see him come back as Shadow. Anyways, for the show itself, minus FUCKING CHRIS, I really liked watching through it. Amy was my favorite character of everyone on the show, and the episodes where she got a lot of screen time ended up being my favorite, Sonic’s Scream Test(yes the nightmare fuel episode), standing out to me as probably my favorite episode of the whole show. Oh and, once again, fuck Chris.

The sub and dub are truly such a case of “same name, different show.” If I wanted to get a kid invested into sonic lore and characters through a TV show, I’d show them English Sonic X. If I wanted to get literally anyone else on board, Or if I wanted to change the opinion of any person who only saw the English version, I’d show them Japanese sonic X. It truly is superior in every way. Chris is better (like, obscenely so - the way his dialogue is written makes his character a lot more palatable, among other improvements), the jokes are funnier, the serious moments land better, and the emotions are more authentic. The English dub also made a lot of changes/cuts that make things way more confusing and non-sensical than it should be. Overall, let me be another broken record to say that the Japanese cut is the way to go. It’s definitely still a show that’s fun to laugh at than to genuinely adore, but it’s still a “good” anime in its own right

He also had the *WORST VOICE EVER.* Why was his voice _HIGH_ here??? He has the deepest voice out of the whole cast! Emerl was ALSO made to be a no one because, lo and behold, the Sonic Battle section was *over too quickly.* He was one the best written characters in Sonic game history with *ANOTHER* really sad ending. Now, _his_ voice was a travesty... Because _he didn't have one._ *WHY DIDN'T HE HAVE ONE?* He talks throughout almost the ENTIRE GAME, adapting parts of the personalities of everyone he bonded with... Yet they forgo giving him a voice. They honestly could have incorporated him into an entire season if they had followed the game a *lot* closer. That was a *long* game. A side note, Sonic named him ML *why?* What's wrong with _Emerl?_ Anyway, that's my first internet rant of my life, so yeah. Lol

What I Think It's Least Great About Sonic X 1. It’s my best favorite and just first ever watched Sonic TV show not long after when I just fore the first time both knew about and played Sonic. 2. Anime adaptation of the modern Sonic games, especially just the first modern and my best favorite Sonic game Sonic Adventure. 3. Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles cliché. 4. Showing flashback how Sonic and Tails met adapted the same flashback from the Sonic Adventure game. 5. There were least some CGI effects, forexsample the Spin Attack move, Egg Carrier vessel in few scenes, X Tornado in few scenes, Blue Typhone, Eclipse Cannon, the water, some explosions and blowing leaves in episode 13. 6. Sonic and his friends designs look almost like their 2D modern artworks, most human characters are both realistic and were less off-modeled and Cosmo’s species had great design just designed as humanoid plant alien species who seems they were regular plants evolved into humanoid plants and could be seen as an opposite or a counterpart to the anthropomorphic animals. 7. The english intro and the Gotta Go Fast song. 8. The Sonic head silhouette icon on the title logo. 9. The live action movie probably have been inspirated by Sonic X since both just have most similarities I love. 10. Although I do not like season 3, Dark Oak was least a great and darker and edgier villain who I want also to appear in the main canon game series and there are organic life evolve to robots and robots take over the world cliché plot. What I Think Sucks About Sonic X 1. Most episodes are boring, especially the whole season 3 is boring and only focusing on only one saga, both focusing less on and were rarely funny moments with the protagonist Sonic, not focusing on Sonic’s world, scenes and other anthropomorphic animals in the pilot weren't also in Sonic X and last only three seasons. 2. The series had low budget unlike most other anime. There were lot animation bump, there were little CGI effects, were only few soft-shaded visible and animated objects, the sky have better quality only in season 3, the simplified non-human characters were often off-modeled than the realistic and less simplified characters and both Sonic and Shadow didn’t have six quills even when both Sonic in Super Sonic form and OVA anime Sonic have six quills. 3. Sonic X is the only anime adaptation of the modern Sonic games. 4 It's never revealed how Doctor Eggman ended up on Sonic’s world and why he also have to go back to Sonic's world because of destruction and freezing of time when he's from Earth. 5. Still missing some Sonic Adventure 1 & 2 and other Sonic game elements and sources, characters like Metal Sonic and E-123 Omega, all the main character's backstories, Action Stage locations, level up items and soundtracks. 6. Little anime-esque expressions, effects and feelings. 7. No Christmas episode. 8. Amy is more annoying and even selfish fan girl especially in season 3, although she at the same time still seems kind and caring as her video game counterpart. 9. Sonic’s world and Cosmo’s species’ names are never mentioned. 10. The title name simply just named "Sonic X" and not have same name as the Sonic main canon game series. 11. There’s no“Gotta Go Fast” long song version. 12. The English censored version isn’t as much good as the original Japanese version.

I've kind of fallen away from Sonic X. I've tried to watch it again, but I just can't get back into it. I don't watch the Halloween episode (because I don't believe in ghosts, fight me!). Sonic X was practically childhood, but I guess you fall away from the things you watched when you were a kid. Like with the Wild Kratts for me. I told myself, "I don't think I'll ever stop watching this show!" I stopped watching it 3 or 4 years ago with currently entering my sophmore year in college. It was the same way with Sonic X. I'm still a huge Sonic fan and stay connected to the latest news and stuff about the next movie and all other (the documentary of the making of Sonic the Hedgehog coming to Netflix and such). Currently, the only reason why I would continue to watch Sonic X is Shadow. Shadow is like my second favorite character in the whole franchise (right after Silver). Because of that, I watch a huge majority of Season 2 and 3 because of him. I do like the comedy in season 3 tbch. And to be fair, I can understand why the people mistake Shadow for Sonic, but it's dumb that Amy mistakes it. She just sees a male hedgehog and runs for him. It's still the same in Sonic '06 with Silver. I never really liked Amy from the shows or the games. I like her in the comics. She's not constantly chasing after Sonic but also not acting with complete sass (you know what I'm talking about: Sonic Boom). I'll stop now before I go too far. (Btw, thank you for that beautiful reference SnapCube's fandub. I still laugh so hard from that. 🤣)

It has some heart between one character and the other, and has good moral lessons in it. Chris doesn’t bother me that much because he sometimes helpful, but I could careless. I don’t like when he talks about Sonic not wanting him to leave Earth. I would rank Chris a 5/10. Everything else is great, and I would give this anime a 9/10.

People need to stop reviewing the dub and using its vastly different versions of the characters and storylines as the metric with which to judge this show and its characters’ quality.

Can ANYONE please give Chris a freaking chance and humans in the Sonic world a freaking chance?! Chris, yes, should have been handled better in the Sonic X show however he is not cardboard! I get that Tails and Cream would be a great wonderful stand in for Sonic and they already are but at the same exact time who freaking cares?! I mean don't get me wrong I want Tails and Cream there but we see them with Sonic all of the time as animal friends can't you just imagine if Sonic was friends with a human kid like Chris it show off that Sonic would be friends with just about anybody and not just those who fight alongside him and have high intelligence! Where's the fun in that if that was taken away?! Not to mention but yes I do agree that I wish that Chris' friendship with Tails was developed more for they really did seem like best friends yet one thing bugs me wait a minute Sonic had a stronger friendship with Helen than he ever did with Chris?! Are you freaking kidding me?! Don't get me wrong I want Sonic to have a strong friendship with Helen and I always wished that it was developed more but even stronger than the friendship with Chris?! WHAT?! Does this guy realize how many wonderful moments with Chris that Sonic had with him?! Sonic was there for him when he first rescued Chris from the hands of Eggman and in chaos control and let him hug him as Super Sonic, Sonic came rushing to Chris' rescue in the Sonic Adventure 2 episodes when Chris was up in space and came to his side when he was Super Sonic and Chris was passed out, Chris helped Sonic find the chaos emerald in the ocean in the first season alongside the others, Sonic checked up on him when Chris let Cream down and made sure that he was okay, Sonic saved him from Techno Teacher and Eggman in that one episode, Sonic gave him advice to be a better friend towards Danny at the tournament and turned to him when he had to unexpectedly face up against Amy, Sonic had courage in Chris to help defeat Chaos, Sonic encouraged Chris to get better at baseball, Sonic got super angry that he turned into Dark Super Sonic when Chris and Cosmo got hurt, Sonic was there for Chris in the season finale episodes of the second season and like this video said cried for him, I could go on! Am I missing something here?! I just don't get it and it gets on my freaking nerves that nobody else can see it! :(

Chris is shown to have a strong friendship with Sonic so many times. Remember that one time he literally runs away from his own family with Sonic? He also has put his life in risk so many times. We always see a Sonic x Chris relationship more than Sonic/Tails, Sonic/Knuckles.. which is weird

@@keeithrobinson4909 Exactly I was like wtf Sonic was willing to leave Tails, Amy, and Knuckles for Chris? And he didn't even question him. That was very weird. Chris also had his other three friends from school and chooses Sonic over him.. dude even left his family for Sonic

(My current opinion) and also there might be mistakes on some sentences so beware. I like the characters in Chris mansion and Chris himself isn’t all that bad until like Ep 26 (Super Sonic introduction). Chris is family is okay at best, his mom is fine and is oblivious, his father is caring and I like that one episode were Chuck (I think that’s his dad’s name?) yells at him for leaving work to see Chris who had like a flu or just a cold and Sam is cool and I like how he’s like Sonic in some way. For Chris friends (one I forgot the one Sonic took to see flowers) I like her character, as for the others I feel like they should appear more so. I’m fine with Tails, Cream & Cheese and Vinilla is fine I guess, Amy is the worst since she’s annoying and she never develops, The Chaotix are fun but wish they appeared more, Cosmo is good but personally I don’t care. Sonic is good but he’s more calmer and imo it’s kind of boring but I do like most of his personality as at his best as when he took one of Chris friend to see flowers, Ep51 (I think that’s the episode before Sonic came back to his world). Also the boat episode but I feel like Sonic being calmer and focused (or something) was pointless as Ella (how’d you spell her mame?) smashed Eggman’s ship using the X Tornado (I think that’s the ship). Season 1 was fine I enjoyed it with it’s comedy, Season 2 also but personally not as much and Season 3 idk why but I felt like it was ehh cool but ehh idk why I don’t really care. 4Kids voice acting is alright, censor weakens the story and impact on the characters like Molly.

I’ll just say my piece: I like the dub for this show a lot. The characters sound like how I think they would, and the scripts remain more or less the same as in Japanese. However, 4kids butchered the dialogue (and thus the context) so much that I much prefer listening in Japanese with subtitles because that actually conveys what’s going on. That said, this was only really an issue in Season 3, where they basically shafted the Tails and Cosmo romance despite it being flat out stated in that one literal matchmaker episode. Tl;dr, I like both sub and dub, and I have my reasons for each one.

@@wannabehistorian371 In season 3, the scripts and censored scenes change a bit from the English version to the Japanese in some episodes, much more in the last 10-15 episodes. Dunno the other seasons, because I watched them all in English but then rewatched the last season in Japanese with eng subtitles, and the final ones were much better in Japanese.

20:39 Eggman on full display showing everyone how hypocritical he is with that one line. I remember watching this back in my teens. I may watch this series in it's entirety because I've only watched most of season 1, only bits of season 2 and rare episodes of season 3. It was made from a different time so it'll obviously have it's cheesy moments of screenplay, dialogue and overused cutscene gimmicks like how they do most of the one screen fight scenes like it's a slideshow. As long as it's appealing to me with comedy and emotion done right I'll give it a watch. You can't forget Eggman ways doing the noblewoman's laugh though every chance he got.
