  • Dragon Ball and Sonic go hand and hand for me.
    I just can't have one without the other.
    Let's gush over two of my favorite things and discuss some of the more obscure parallels these two series share.
    Concept for the DBZ Sonic design was created by my friend devalogann, check out his Instagram page:

      I wouldn't try to disprove Sega was aping DBZ, they surely were, but to begin with it wasn't nearly very original what DBZ had to rip off from. The son Gokuu legend is THE pervasive fantasy setting in Japan, so a lot of the tone was typical in ALL Japanese media. Then there's Super Sonic, but that's also is arguable. Like, "yellow" is literally "kiiro" or "ki color" in Japanese. Any power-up is easy to signify first as a color change, and, the yellow color is about as obvious as blue electricity would be in the west, but we don't say that Sonic Movie rips off Back To The Future. They are just both examples of kinda going for the obvious thing.

      Janemba, would be the movie, and that "dark form" is indeed called "false super saiyan" or "incomplete super saiyan". The reason it exists are many, but that specific scene in the Janemba movie was just bad communication in the production, he was supposed to be a normal super saiyan. It was either that or they delibrately chose that so Goku wouldn't become ssj before his fight with Pikkon, I can't remember which, but the reason it was called false super saiyan is because Goku enters a similarly unfinished ssj transformation in the Lord Slug movie.
      However, not a single Dragon Ball Z movie (except maybe the Bojack one) is chronologically possible. All of them assume certain events in DBZ did not happen or are happening simultaneously, and Z Broly no diffs Cell, despite happening at the same time and Goku killing Broly with a mini spirit punch

    Chaos Emeralds - and Super Sonic - being tied to the plot... remember when that was a thing? At least there's that fan radio drama Sonic and Tails R - featuring Ryan Drummond and Mike Pollock - that bring them back, and put importance on them for the first time since Unleashed. Yes they were also in Generations, but that barely had a plot, being instead more focused on being a greatest hits. There was also this I remember seeing that shows the Black Goku arc from Dragon Ball Super is basically just Sonic 06

Because Sonic is compared to Dragon Ball I thought that Sonic works better as a Shonen series rather than have JRPG and Saturday Morning Cartoon plots, One of My favorite Sonic fans animation is Sonic Nazo Unleashed and how Chakra X took inspiration from Dragon Ball and applied it to Sonic such as the fast pace combat and the fact that Sonic and Shadow can fuse into Shadic.
    Here's a bit of fun fact The Character Monkey Khan/Ken Khan from the Archie comics is based off of Sun Wukong and Dragon Ball was a huge inspiration from Journey to the West.

    I like pointing out Neo Metal Sonic and Cell, and even Heroes and the Android+Cell Saga as a whole. Metal scans and copies the abilities of Sonic, Shadow, and Chaos (through Froggy and Chocola), and Cell was created with the DNA of Goku, Vegeta, Piccolo, and Freeza. Both were created by archetypical mad scientists to be their ultimate creations, and while it was a different creation for Gero, both were betrayed by their own creations. Hell, both Metal Overlord and Super Perfect Cell couldn’t be defeated by the protagonist by themselves, with Super Sonic needing Tails and Knuckles while Gohan was stalemating against Cell until not only Goku’s otherworldly motivation, but Cell getting distracted momentarily by Vegeta during the Kamehameha clash.

    Sonic is the 3rd party franchise to need another representative. There are 3 possible characters to become fighters: Shadow, Tails, Dr. Eggman. In my opinion it should be Shadow to break the (-) stigma on Sonic as campy & annoying playstyle. To also break the mold of having TWO spin dashes (just why did they do this?).
    We see a patern in Fighters Pass 2, that the characters are from the same company from Fighter Pass 1. We have Nintendo with Byleth & Min Min. We have Microsoft with Banjo & Steve. We have Squire Enix with Hero & Sepiroth. Now we three slots left. So far the two other companies Altus & SNK & third slot for fan favorite.
    Joker from Persona franchise which is owned by Altus franchise which is also owned by Sega. So Sega can add another Sonic representative in Smash.
    Shadow can be added in a way that Sakurai tells us the Assist Trophy Shadow is a "Shadow Android" & gives the possibility for the real Shadow to be playable. I think Shadow should be the one to break the Assist Trophy "fan rule".
    Shadow can be sort of a mix between Sonic & Mewtwo with a hint of EDGE to the hog. A character who is nearly as fast as Sonic with Chaos powers that can teleport, throw projectiles, can even create a huge explosion (Chaos Blast). This time Sakurai needs to bring moveset from SONIC BATTLE to Shadow's moveset. Make people appreciate the Sonic Franchise.
    Not to mention that Sonic's 30th anniversary is right around the corner. What better way to celebrate than to bring in "The ULTIMATE LIFEFORM" in Smash Ultimate.

    Which "Assist Trophy" character deserves to be the fighter? It's either between Waluigi or Shadow.
    Honestly Shadow the Hedgehog has a much better moveset potential over Waluigi. Not to mention that Shadow is much more important than Waluigi in the role of his franchise.
    I need to relive the moments of Super Mario Bro Z with all the main characters including the Ultimate Lifeform to be a part of the ULTIMATE SMASH BROS.
    The ULTIMATE LIFEFORM should be the one to break "fan rule" of Assist Trophy being upgraded in the same game.

      Metal Sonic can also “copy” data or absorb data from the others similar to how Cell absorbed bio-extract from humans in DBZ and became stronger from absorbing the Androids, yes.
      Then there’s the obvious similarity between Perfect Chaos and Perfect Cell, and Cell/Chaos in general with multiple forms being revealed after they absorb something (Emeralds/Androids).

    Not as much comparison as to dragon ball but there can be funny references if you wanna call them that you can some what point out Zelda in sonic. Sonic unleashed released not long after Zelda twilight princess where they both turned to wolves. Princess Elise is zelda. Sonic and the black night duh. Sonic rush adventure where it can either be like Zelda wind waker or links awakening since they both involve exploring an island/islands in the ocean. Yes, sonic and tails were stranded in one of the islands just like link and had boats to explore the ocean. Rush adventure came out somewhat soon after wind waker. Sonic frontiers which is like botw. Also links corrupted hand from the botw sequel and Sonic’s corrupted hand in frontiers.
    And there was this very very vague one where in a dlc in sonic lost world, sonic was wearing a green outfit which was very hard to tell but it looked similar to links outfit. Yeah, very vague, only 0.1% of people notice
