I get it now. When Kirk talks fast, his Shadow voice goes a little off. I just heard the video of Shadow’s voice clips from Forces, he talks a lot more slowly, so it’s perfect. Also, there’s more tension put in his voice, hence it’s a race. In forces, it’s calm.
Kkaebsong 95321 Finally! Someone who agrees with me! 7:57- 8:00 For example. If you listen to Saix from Kingdom Hearts 3 and Jin from Samurai Champloo, their also voiced by Kirk but they almost sound identical to Shadow but the voice isn’t gruffly, just calm.

What I noticed that Kirk's Shadow sounds off during moments when he is doing something exiting, like taunting, being an ass, being cocky, enraged, or having fun. But the "right" way he sounds when he is serious and overall showing genuine emotions. Like there is a difference if he calls you useless in his Forces voice and the same thing in this type of voice (I'll call it Boom voice). In first case he doesn't see potential, "leave me alone,big disappointment", in second he is being an ass for the sake of being an ass, taunting you into improving, "git gud noob". I kinda learned to appreciate that side of Kirk's voice because you can notice a pattern and tell where Shadow is serious, and where Shadow is a D for the sake of being a D. Team Sonic racing is a tournament, so no need to be serious or constantly on edge. Like a giddy kid playing videogames calling people names and overall getting too into the game/competition(would explain he actions towards Rouge and Omega in racing game cartoon. That's not something serious and more of a leasure activity). At least that what I see when hear Kirk's impression.
I really think Kirk's come a long way as Shadow. I think he's at his best when Shadow's speaking softly. Whenever he has to raise his voice, it sometimes sounds too gravely in my opinion.
@@lezzdenden No, that explanation doesn't fly when Omega clearly cares about Rouge and Silver even is like:"Why dude, we were partners once!". They clearly knew that they could write non-antargonistic lines, yet still did it anyways.

5:19 Shadow: Dont tell me what to do Sonic! (Flashback) Black Doom: YOU DISOBEYED MY ORDERS... Shadow: Yeah? Well i told you, no one can tell me what to do!
People really forgot that this is what Shadow is like. They're forgetting his self confidence and competitive nature. And now that they're driving fast cars for fun?! He's gonna cut loose. That's why he and Sonic sound like kids when they interact in this game.
Lmao it’s funny cuz he said in sonic 06 that he will fight others if they turn on him so this basically means that he doesn’t make friendships he’s just acquaintances with them
4:39 At one point i thought Shadow was being like an edgy gremlin while also calling a wisp "Wispy" but still i cant get this mishearing out of my head
This video has always been proof to me that what Kirk really needs is better voice direction. He sounded really good in forces, but he sounds a bit to gruff here.
@@ZtarvoK amy is only interested in hedgehog with a free spirit which is sonic because sonic is the only hedgehog in the universe with a free spirit and thats why amy can't stop being in love with him sooooooo she doesn't like other hedgehog but sonic
I preferred his direction on Forces, sounded more like Griffith, here is regressing with that "I smoked too much and probably have lung cancer" voice. I love his expressiveness, not how Shadow is written in this game though
All improve or lose interactions with Shadow: 0:13 'Chao, you need to take this seriously.' 0:28 'If that's your best, Amy, you might as well quit.' 0:35 'Sonic, you're disappointing me.' 0:41 'Zavok, I thought you were a competitor.' 1:12 'Silver, are you even trying?' 1:36 'Knuckles, you're not trying hard enough.' 2:51 'Rouge, you need to focus!' 3:42 'Metal Sonic, you belong in a junk pile.' 4:43 'Are you trying to sabotage the team, Doctor?' 5:52 'Big, stop goofing around!' 7:54 'Tails, you have to play to win!' 9:19 'Vector, your performance is pathetic.' 11:52 'Blaze, you know this is a race, right?' 13:12 'Omega, race like you want to win!'
I’m ok with shadow being more of a jerk to people as long as it makes me at least giggle. But I don’t think they should make him attack omega and rouge, sega needs to at least somehow make them a team and friends at the same time
Love this portrayal! Many people forget that Shadow is a very competitive character, he wouldn't be crying about Maria during a race. This shows Kirk's range with Shadow, a strength Jason and David lack. Also, why is Shadow's face green here? Is it a copyright thing?
Hmm. I love Shadow as a character, and he's my second favorite racer in Team Sonic Racing, but his voice is a bit underwhelming. I think that Kirk Thornton is a good Shadow VA; his performance in Sonic Forces was top notch. Here, Shadow sounds a bit too gravelly most of the time, as if he has a lozenge in his throat. This isn't enough to get me to hate Shadow the Hedgehog, though.
@@digitalbath2301 Well, I like many of the heroes as well, including Vector, Sonic, Tails, and Blaze. That said, my favorite Sonic character overall is Metal Sonic.
I like how Shadow is pissed at anyone who attacks him, but when Blaze doing this, he's trying to be polite and calm.
Cause she's a princess

Dang what happened shadow is soean now what happened to the old shadow like in sonic x, sa2 and sonic heroes, he literally just called omega dumb
9:34
Hmph, slick...
Vegeta the edgehog
I like how Shadow's nice to Rouge!!! But I wish he was nicer to Omega.
Shadow:
I won’t forget this Sonic! 😠
I heard a lot of ones about Amy 😏 also “this paint job is edgy..” EEE
Shadamy?🤔
Shadow needs to chill out
This is shadow in a low stakes, highly competitive environment. Why chill?
When you can get mildly annoyed by grass.
He not just ruined he got killed by Sega
Shadow the hedgehog: the guy whose only job easier than finding the DAMN fourth chaos emerald was taking down that DAMN four tailed gorilla.
4:16 Shadow: “Come on Punch it Punch it!!” Best lines ever!!
Accelerate!
Hm... *Archaic...*
All improve or lose interactions with Shadow:
0:13 'Chao, you need to take this seriously.'
0:28 'If that's your best, Amy, you might as well quit.'
0:35 'Sonic, you're disappointing me.'
0:41 'Zavok, I thought you were a competitor.'
1:12 'Silver, are you even trying?'
1:36 'Knuckles, you're not trying hard enough.'
2:51 'Rouge, you need to focus!'
3:42 'Metal Sonic, you belong in a junk pile.'
4:43 'Are you trying to sabotage the team, Doctor?'
5:52 'Big, stop goofing around!'
7:54 'Tails, you have to play to win!'
9:19 'Vector, your performance is pathetic.'
11:52 'Blaze, you know this is a race, right?'
13:12 'Omega, race like you want to win!'
Shadow was flanderized in this game like in Free Riders. He’s became a competitive, cocky and brash hedgehog kinda like Sonic but worse
Why is shadow's head green in the thumbnail?
I’m ok with shadow being more of a jerk to people as long as it makes me at least giggle. But I don’t think they should make him attack omega and rouge, sega needs to at least somehow make them a team and friends at the same time
agreed, but Shadow was always a nice person just more of a Batman character than a knockoff Vegeta
I'm assuming the meaner lines are when you do a standard race
@@Astroniko003 you’re right
Kirk Thornton was getting better is Forces. What the fuck happened lmao
Love this portrayal! Many people forget that Shadow is a very competitive character, he wouldn't be crying about Maria during a race. This shows Kirk's range with Shadow, a strength Jason and David lack.
Also, why is Shadow's face green here? Is it a copyright thing?
David lacks that? Oh hell no. When it comes to Shadow, Humphrey has it all.
All I heard was Saïx from Kingdom Hearts before I realized they are the same voice actor lol
Lol I hear that as well as Kisame from Naruto.
Hmm. I love Shadow as a character, and he's my second favorite racer in Team Sonic Racing, but his voice is a bit underwhelming.
I think that Kirk Thornton is a good Shadow VA; his performance in Sonic Forces was top notch. Here, Shadow sounds a bit too gravelly most of the time, as if he has a lozenge in his throat.
This isn't enough to get me to hate Shadow the Hedgehog, though.
Who's your first favorite?:)
@@digitalbath2301 Zavok, oddly enough.
Truthfully, I always liked Zavok.
@@TheMack625 haha so you're into the bad guys then? That's cool, I never minded Zavok tbh.
@@digitalbath2301 Well, I like many of the heroes as well, including Vector, Sonic, Tails, and Blaze.
That said, my favorite Sonic character overall is Metal Sonic.
I love Shadow the hedgehog
Kirk Thorton is brilliant as Shadow
Those 50 years of being in suspended animation are very notorous in his voice
4:03
This is Shadow, breathing down your neck!
WHY IS HE GREEN-
I just hear kirk Thornton doing a vegeta impression
Ian Hanlin as Shadow the Hedgehog.
