Slightly Scared
I've only seen a few episodes of this series, but I can tell you that this show is not that good.Characters Well, we've got Sonic in there and Eggman (or Robotnik, whatever) Knuckles also appears along with Athair and Uncle Chuck, (Archie Comics) and of course there's Sonic's triplet brother and sister (?) and of course we all remember Sleet and Dingo (?)
What? What about Tails or Amy? Apparently, DIC thought that having the recognisable characters whom we have come to know and love was a bad idea so make way for these forgettable idiots.
Manic, the cactus-green kleptomaniac hedgehog and Sonia, the pink pansy princess hedgehog.
Story
Queen Aleena, Sonic's mother whom we have never heard of, is warned by some freaky reptilian-anteater (I forget to mention that they had aliens in this show as well) that Robotnik will somehow take over the planet of Mobius without actually doing anything. Since Aleena apparently thought ahead and gave her three young children magic pendants that turn into weapons and musical instruments, she sends hem to adoptive families to wait until the time is right. How she knows when the time is right, I don't know, but she just does.
After all three bushpig's families are pwn3d by robots, they meet up and become an underground rock band for some reason. (and yet they play no rock songs) and travel Morbid Mobius to find their mother, even tough she tends to directly intervene with their battles.
Wait, if she knows their exact location, why doesn't she just meet them there and end this awful series?
Animation
NO! I keep hearing people going on and on about how well this series was animated and how great the character designs are, even the people who DON'T like it. Get it through your heads, this series is badly animated. Here's an example. In one scene, while The Sonic Unrground (Yes, it's meant to be said with a The) is in a sewer, some robots come and we see their commander, Sleet the Wolf, pointing at the hedgehogs while standing perfectly still. His mouth is also open even tough he isn't saying anything so it looks he has lockjaw. And Sonic and Manic just look fat. Nothing looks like it should be in Sonic the Hedgehog.
Voices
Yeaaaah....not that great. Jaleel White voices Sonic again like the other series, but he also voices Manic and Sonia. Manic is given a surfer-dude accent, but he speaks to damned fast! Most of the time he sound like he forgets to add punctuation to his words. Sonia's meant to be a girl, so why is she being voiced by a man?
They also have this annoying rule in which they must cram one song into every single episode. I have nothing against musicals, but it just doesn't work as a TV series. If it was a short series, like 6 episodes maybe, but not 40. The special effects they have in these music videos are awful. You could get most of these effects on an 80s computer game! Also, the singing voices sound nothing like the real voices. In short, I like muffins.
score 3/10
