Ian Flynn cooked up one massive Thanksgiving dinner for Shadow's story and the fact that Keanu Reeves himself is voicing Shadow as DLC simply makes Sonic X Shadow Generations one legendary remastered collection.
The fight scene in this episode is actually insanely beautiful, the amount of effort put into the impacts and choreography is absolutely wild, not to mention this thing is 3D animated and doesn't even look it, I didn't even notice until it was pointed out to me
I can't. It's too short. I need MORE. How can SEGA create something this amazing, then only give us so much of it at a time?? I go now to wait for the next episode. Am sad till then.
I'm a 16 year old Sonic nerd (have been one since I was 6....wow, a whole decade) and I'm hyped since I grew up with Sonic comics, shows, and movies (particularly the 90s Saturday Morning cartoons: Sonic Underground, Sonic SATAM, and Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog, as well as Sonic X (came out in the 2000s), and Sonic Boom (came out 2011 or so), and the Sonic Archive comics, as well as the one Sonic x Mega Man crossover comic. Saw all these when I was 5-10 years old.) I went crazy when I saw Gerald's execution, GUN storming the ARK and killing Maria....The preview to the prologue of Sonic x Shadows Generations made me excited since the animation was so amazing, and Emerl made a comeback. Now that episode 1 finally released, I'm more excited of what's to come, especially seeing just how close Maria and Shadow were.
No it's the Time Eater that's doing this, may i also remind you that Maria is PURPLE the same colour as the TIME EATER. The more Shadow stays in this state the more the Time Eater is eating away at his existence, what Dr Eggman is doing is far too dark and the so called "im going to erase all my loses", it's consequences are finally being shown..
@@groudonor12pretty sure this is all doom. my guess is before the time eater attacks black doom was already preparing to return, then once it attacked doom took this as a chance to strike shadow. im guessing the purple you see is with lightning strikes? i think that was more for style, don't think its the time eater yet.
I like to hope they give Alyla Brown enough screentime as Maria in the movie! Because so far they only showed two scenes with her. The first I guess was one of Shadow's and Maria first meetings. And second is - she lays there on the ground unconscious.(dead) I'm really rooting for her to become a big actress after her performance in the movie, she's like a ray of light, and a fantastic actress for her 16! When it comes to this short, feels like events directly tied to events of the game. Seems like Time eater and Black Doom teamed up distort reality and break it apart. And first thing that changes - is peoples memories of different events? And then reality changes happen. My theory is that in the game Shadow would try and save Maria but because that change would imply further reality distortions he's probably just going to say final goodbye and allow Gerald and Maria to go back to their timeline. Another theory - there's also different version of Shadow from Sonic Adventure 2 events and he warns 3 of them about what's gonna happen on the ARK, by warning them he saves them in their timeline. But Maria stays dead in his. That's how I would write this. But we'll see what Ian Flynn cooked for us!
I'm happy that you are doing more Sonic content the past month or so. You do good work on both sides. It's a good mix. The Mario and Sonic series, that is.
I AM ABOUT TO MAKE YOUR DAY!!! When watching EP.1 have a separate youtube tab with the helldivers theme at 0:16, then at 3:03 in EP.1, hit play on the theme!! makes the fight x1000 times awsome!!! th-cam.com/video/R5hCkh2AH58/w-d-xo.htmlsi=obcnwSibGCCRQtzz&t=16

Agreed! Looking forward to the future of the Sonic franchise right now
they really trolled me at the beginning 💀 i thought it was the ark invasion
That was done so well, yeah.
Oh my gosh yes!😭
I literally thought they were immediately going to start off the episode with the Ark invasion as well!😱
@@GraceGootee Please Project Shadow full short film Reacton video ok?
I literally almost cried because this was just so perfect 😭
The fight scene in this episode is actually insanely beautiful, the amount of effort put into the impacts and choreography is absolutely wild, not to mention this thing is 3D animated and doesn't even look it, I didn't even notice until it was pointed out to me
Aurora borealis?! At this time of day in this part of The Ark? Localized entirety within earths atmosphere?!
Yes
May I see it?
@@darkshadowssonic No...
@@LongplayScrapbook
"Shadow! Emerl is attacking the Doctor!"
@@JustaLamborghiniCountachWhoCom No Maria its just the northen lights.
The music hits hard in this.... between this and the Knuckles animation we got, they need to invest in making an anime of this!
@@Brithoveen Absolutely!! We need a 2D/3D animated Sonic series in this style!!🙏
@@GraceGootee I agree!!! This was wonderful!!
This type of cgi needs to be used more in anime
I can't. It's too short. I need MORE. How can SEGA create something this amazing, then only give us so much of it at a time??
I go now to wait for the next episode.
Am sad till then.
IKR?! It might’ve been a short episode but it really had me on the edge of my seat!🤩
Looking forward to episode 2!!🙌🖤❤️
Even tho it’s the first episode, SEGA COOKED WITH THIS
FOR REAL!!!🔥
My boy, Shadow, has so much backstory. So much trauma that makes him justifiably edgy. I mean, he lost everything that he held dear to him.
But did Shadow put his past behind him?
BRO THE HANDS THAT WAS THROWN BETWEEN SHADOW AND EMERL IS ILLEGAL HOLYYYY
3:51 Shadow Did the Super Hero Landing 💯

This was one exciting episode, like I said before, the hype train of Shadow has just STARTED!!!! ❤❤
P.s. It was emotional as well 😢
Black Doom the GOAT and most underrated Sonic villain actually being a REAL menace to Shadow psychologically?..... Hell fukin yeaaaahhh!!

4:30 4:35 4:36 4:44 I know that it’s just a show and game, but to me…. It’s still sad.

This was pure perfection in my opinion
Agreed!!

You’re not crying, I’m crying!!! 😭😭 lol 😂
Literally this was the best ❤ Amazing video Grace!!
Ngl no hate or anything (AND RANDOM THING) but if Sonic BOOM had this TYPE OF ANIMATION COMBAT?? Nah...
Great reaction, Grace. Would recommend you check the Project Shadow fan film if you haven't already. It will get you right in the feels ❤
The beginning of the episode…..
Do you need a hug since you cry I know how you feel
Maria
I saw this on FB 🥲
