Man, the fact that Omega has exactly 2 lines and both are excellent: "Face me, inferior models!" "I CALL DIBS" Between him and Emerl I'm so happy to see the robot characters getting some respect.
3:21 I love how when rouge is talking about how she convinced Omega to come and meanwhile he is just destroying eggpawns in the background having the time of his life.
“Omega, I’m going on a GUN mission… wanna come~?” “NEGATIVE. I HAVE ONE OBJECTIVE AND ONE OBJECTIVE ALONE.” “It’s a raid on one of Eggman’s supply depots…” “MY ONE OBJECTIVE SHALL BE PURSUED. HECK YEAH IM IN.”
I just dawned on me how brilliant Rouge's request is, she wants Shadow to come to Sonic's birthday party, and that's how Sonic Generations started, a surprise party
@@Choctopusfunny enough this is a retcon, cause Shadow didn’t attend in the original game. He’s there at the ending, but not at the beginning. But damn his reaction to the condition is gold.
@@dollmaker6599I mean if we consider the sequence of events, then it makes sense as shadow would probably be stuck dealing with black doom while sonic has his party. Wouldn’t be a retcon in that scenario
If you read the comics, you'll find him to be the funniest and least professional/technical character. He says shit like "I will never surrender!Victory or Death!" like he's some Asgardian
Choctopus: Oh God it's the Egg Breaker. I can't escape this thing! I fought it a hundred times in my Shadow playthrough. Eggman: You know what they say: The more the merrier~
this is sick. Shadow is portrayed as a very powerful being (as he is); Maria most likely single handedly stimulated Shadow's heart to be, if not "good", at least "just", thereby saving Earth from his wrath; the whole "Shadow the Hedgehog" lore is respected, where he turned out to have alien DNA; Shadow's power goes in parallel with Sonic's: the former draws strength from anger and sadness, whilst the latter has his friends and an easygoing attitude to feed his power. I love this characterization, fits so well. Red and black forever. Shadow is rightfully getting the attention he deserves these days.
@@isplat927unconfirmed but since it wasn’t shown it’s implied he didn’t. also when we see that giant silhoutte of maria in ep 1 she says “shadow remember”.
You didn’t remember “Abe’s” name because it was never given. He was called Abraham Tower in the Archie comics, but this is the first time we’ve been given a name for him in game continuity.
G.U.N soldier: Mr president Tower’s been hit. President:😱 G.U.N soldier: *realises mistake* No sir you misunderstood I meant they hit General Tower. President: 😑 G.U.N soldier: With a bullet. President:😦 G.U.N soldier: In the arm. President: 😐
I cannot get enough of Omega blowing shit up and taking care of business. The shot of him sliding while blasting the Egg Breakers leg off is so satisfying to see. Can't wait to see them raid the G.U.N. base next week.
It’s great to see Maria finally getting the characterization that she deserves which makes her death even more tragic and Shadow’s story and more hurtful that he lost not not only his one friend but a friend who’s soul was so pure.
I feel like the way she's being written is still pretty two-dimensional... but at least it's fully consistent with what we know of her. So they are doing a good job where it counts.
I'm just appreciating the fact that Shadow seems to have his personality back. He was never one to overly express his concern for others, but he never had this absolute contempt for everyone that he's had the last decade.
It’s in Archie. Ian Flynn gave him that name but it was never brought into tej games. In the games he was always just “The Commander” so it’s nice that Ian got to put something he did in the comics in canon now.
My favorite Omega moment is "Unleashing Stockpiled Wrath". Everything from his death stare to his "Do not patronize me" afterwards just tickles me. That or Omega and Sonic's debate on whether or not Zombots count as Eggman robots and he therefore shall tear them limb from limb
ian flynn really knows how to write a good omega. he has two lines in that entire animation, and they're both gold. makes me really excited to see the finale. (that's not the only thing that makes me excited to see it obviously, but it's one of them!)
A fun fact about Abe, and likely why you didn't know his name, he literally didn't have a name till this animation, he was just the GUN Commander before this point. Interestingly in the Archie Sonic Comics, back when they were around, DID give him a name, Abraham Tower, if we assume Abe is just a nickname then most likely they've canonized that name to the games as well.
How love how they show Rouge caring about Shadows social life by bribing him with a birthday party. Such a small detail that gives her more character. Well, more than the mainline games ever have recently at least.
so wholesome of rouge to be like " I'll help but you have to attend your friend's birthday party " I don't belive SonicTeam whenever they say TeamDark aren't friends when they clearly are
What it amazes me is that all of this is made in 3D and we came so long with the tech that it almost seems we are staring at 2D anime. It's so beautiful ❤
0:35 I would love a second ova like a modern version that mixes the comic lore with the games or something like that. It honestly would make sense to do aswell because there’s a lot of new fans that know very little about the franchise and lore. So having something that gives them all the important information in one go would be very nice to see. Plus it would mean they wouldn’t have to rely on the fans dumping 30+ years worth of lore/history on them through mostly TH-cam comments.😂
That was so peak sega took inspiration from the manga again and the fight scenes were amazing the flashback was absolutely heartbreaking I don’t like seeing shadow confused and upset Maria does not deserve to die what did she deserve to be shot and killed
The action that they put into these animations is just insane. They really need to make a small series using this art style. I also saw someone else mention that Rouges' eyes light up after seeing Shadow. Just goes to show she can have a serious side, but doesn't show it when she's with someone she knows too well. AUUGH THE DETAIL! LOL
Loved this episode, once again animation and looks are beautiful, voice acting is great and the characters interactions are so good. Super happy we got more time with Maria. Seeing the Gun commander as a kid again and a returning boss from Shadow the hedgehog game, super cool. Do wish the episode was a bit longer and didn’t have an abrupt end, nevertheless still fantastic. 🖤❤️

Shadow channel.
peak cinema i gooned to this
definitely not a sonic channel That’s for sure
Can u do partners in time?
Mr choc will you ever be considered a sonic channel someday?
Not a sonic channel it’s a shadow channel
Man, the fact that Omega has exactly 2 lines and both are excellent:
"Face me, inferior models!"
"I CALL DIBS"
Between him and Emerl I'm so happy to see the robot characters getting some respect.
Just like Samus on Metroid Dread. Only two lines, but more than enough.
Its Ian Flynn's magic he writes a fantastic Omega
I ACTUALLY LAUGHED AT THE I CALL DIBS 😂
It sounded like "face me, inferior butt-holes" XD
@@mikdan8813 face me, inferior pronouns!

I know right shadow and rouge is just talking to each other meanwhile omega is doing all the work destroying all the egg pawns
@@HaydenPrometheus45I CALL DIBS
Why did they make Maria so likeble?!
Also Omega saying: "I call dibs" just made my day
Because when the inevitable happens it hits harder.
if she's unlikable would her death be impactful or would people cheer for it, and not exactly in the excited way we seen before?
Bc Maria has always been so likeable in the games, Maria is basically Shadows anchor and what brightens his whole world.
Because Ian has plans for this story that will make us cry.
She’s been likable 😂
I love how Rouge doesn't even move her wings when she flies. She just... LEVITATES.
I was wondering if I was the only one who noticed. Oops.
Probably the wind that lifts her up when her wings are sprouted Idi ignore those details besides rouge usually glides in games like SA2
Just like her "Sonic X" counterpart. Most of the time in anime, characters who have wings don't flap them and they just levitate
@@imanobody7911 Yeah I honestly don't mind it as a toon physics thing, but it made me laugh seeing it for the first time

I think what Shadow meant to say was:
“Discusting Black Creature!”
Get out of my seight😡

That is not true, Shadow gets his power from similar sources but in different methods.

I know right for real we have the old shadow back he has his personality that he had in SA2 06 heroes and prime
They actually never say the commander’s name in shadow the hedgehog. He only gets called Abraham Towers in I think chronicles and Archie
Shows how Choc really is a Sonic channel at heart❤
So uhh…. Let’s hope Ken isn’t pissed about that one lmao
Yeah I was going to say technically he was unnamed and the fact she calls him "Abe" prob means the name he had in Archie Sonic is prob canon now.
@@ZiggatonYeah, let’s just hope sega doesn’t lose this time if it happens again (I doubt it because Ken is probably broke anyways(

5:47 maria slowly fading away hurts me so much.

That was the funniest part. Not the peakest, but definitely the funniest.
A full show like this would go hard
Huh, just realized that double eye colored kid is the future GUN commander 50 years later.
Yep.... Abraham Tower!
I find it interesting how Kirk sounds a lot more like Jason in this one
Sega make an actual tv series in this style. I'm not asking. You're going to do it.
These animations make me so teary eyed 🥲
Up until Omega said "I call dibs!" 😅

Omega really just said “I call dibs”
The more the Egg Breaker appears the merrier we will be
You know what they say.
LIGHTS OUT!!!
Everybody’s talking about Omega’s “I call dibs” line but him Deja vu sliding in the background is even funnier
The part where Maria hugged Shadow and consoled him was honestly super sweet.
Omega saying “I CALL DIBS” has just made my entire week. He’s genuinely one of my favorite characters in the series
“I fought him a hundred times in my Shadow playthrough!”
Well, Choc, you know what they say...
"THE MORE, THE MERRIER!"
