I thought it was about time I posted this lame comic. Finished or not, it’s still a thing.
I agree! That would be pretty neat, especially since the old fans are, well, old now! It's about time the eternally young children grew up a little - even if just a little! It would make things far more interesting than just a minor ""passing on the torch"" thing! I just hope they actually go through with what they started inatead of reseting everything again...
I also hope they acknowledge the whole age thing at some point...like, how old are they now? Are any of them getting any therapy? Or joining a support group? Or getting parental figures in their lives? I need answers!
Hey, has it ever clicked for anyone that Sonic is literally a child? I know some people usually go "teenagers aren't kids, they're basicly younger grown-ups!" But like, that's absolutly not true? Teenagers ARE kids! They're older, they're on the road of BECOMING adults, but they AREN'T!
The point being, I can't even IMAGINE what kind of messed up trauma riddled mind Sonic has at this point. Just- the childhood trauma I've had has been enough to eff me up real bad, imagine what all the stuff SONIC has been through has done to him!
And I know; I know that Japan has a thing with idolizing children that behave maturely and/or takes on a bunch of responsibility, but still! He's been 15 years old for, what, 20 years? And he's been through hell and back and fought several gods and always been the one to stand strong and never give up! Imagine the mental and emotional toll!
As a kid I always thought "wow! Sonic is so cool and mature!" And now as a 21 year old I just get an intense parental need to just- get him therapy and protect him from the world. It's kinda scary how many emotions and instincts media can trigger, actually!
And I know that it'd be pointless to protect him from a lore standpoint; he's more powerful than some human nobody ever would be, but I just-
He's 15 YEARS OLD you guys!
A kid!
And that realisation hit me like a freight train a couple of months ago, and it re-hit me after playing Sonic Frontiers!
Or else...
do u like trains there, pardner
LIKE trains?? I LOVE trains!
Posting old stuff in droves because I want to get it out there before I hate it too much.
Starting with Starzinger because,..because!
I have some better ones I’ll post in just a moment.
Anyway, it’s incredible what some extra lines and a change of colour can do.
Is it Shadespear or Shadespear?
Either way it's MINE now!
