Got to be honest I don’t blame Shadow for assuming that the virus can’t infect him. I mean Project Shadow was designed to be immune to all diseases so that his blood could be reverse engineer to cure Maria. Sadly it seems that his assumption was wrong.
I agree to a certain extent since although shadow was the ultimate lifeform he is only immune to biological diseases the metal virus appears to be a somewhat a nano tech virus where it converts organic material into programmable metal, and I think that he let alone Rouge would understand that this was out his league and his status ain't gonna help him(unless he has some sort of doomsday trait where what effects him once won't work a second time but that's beside the point) here they just make him look arrogant and reckless, I understand that he had to be written out because of his power but it would have been better if he did something more akin to what happened to Tangle maybe a zombot snuck past omega and tried to go after Rouge a resistance soldier or a refugee and it just got a lucky hit on him and because sonic was gone he had to deal with the zombots omega couldn't handle and he got overwhelmed
fair enough but that still doesn’t excuse them for acting like an idiot and just keep pounding away when he should’ve try running it off like sonic, even if it didn’t work you should’ve at least done something rational, I’m sorry for complaining about this but I just don’t like the direction that shadow is being taken in our days, thank you Saga
@@scodeknight3178 It's all about perspective, you're thinking as someone who would analyze the situation fully (like Tails). Shadow isn't that person, he's more of a Jotaro type, punch until the job is completed. (I know I'm being a hypocrite but meh, don't care)
@@KatAlystsStage Oh my god I wasn't expecting that!! Not gonna lie you are a perfect rouge who is one of my favorite characters! So yeah, excellent job and looking forward to more!!
Holy crap, Shadow sounded really Good. Trev managed to capture the anger and pride of Shadow in this issue, especially with how Shadow really did think that he was above being infected, only for it to backfire and get him infected.
I love Omega's lines and voice actor it's so hilarious and in character. Especially when he asks Sonic to specify if zombots are robots caused by Eggman.
@@TechnoCinemaMusic Excellent job on voicing Omega! His portrayal in comics have made him my favorite character, seeing him brought to life with great voice performances gives me such joy.
"I will kill you so hard you will die to death!" and "Die so I can kill you!" I give credit for that second one to someone I'm close with. They said that while we were gaming, and they've never been able to live it down since (mostly thanks to me XD)
Alright, this thing's starting to feel less and less like a fandub, and more and more like a professional production. It's been amazing watching this whole thing improve over time, everything from the music, to the voice acting, to even video editing has gotten so, _so_ much better. This one was wild, keep up the good work, guys.
@@Darkkurr Duuuuude, me either! The hype is unreal. I'm _especially_ excited to see how they handle the bit with Super Sonic beating the ever-loving shit out of Zavok.
Trev's voicework for Shadow is absolutely on point here. From the opening arrogant-filled "Shut up" to the terror-filled screams at the end, he nailed every moment. This was quite the emotional rollercoaster of an issue and everyone did such an awesome job!
Can we just appreciate the awesome piano version of Team Dark's Theme " This Machine " for a moment, it really set up the mode from start to finish for this issue.
Fun fact: the scene where Shadow is holding back the zombots Flynn had planned for Shadow to take off his inhibitor rings and use full power but in the end still lose to the infection. However, that plan was scrapped by Sega because they wanted the story to focus on Shadow’s and Sonic’s rivalry 😑
Wouldn't that also contradict the end of the story where Sonic gets rid of the virus by going Super? Both Super Sonic and Uninhibited Shadow both project the same kind of energy, chaos energy.
@@deadlysilence7474 Considering Uninhibited power pales in comparison to Super form and it also lasts even less than the Super form would, it'd be much like Sonic running it off, but wouldn't cure him of it
@@deadlysilence7474 More it would be foreshadowing to how they could cure it. Uninhibited Shadow can’t produce the same energy as a Super Form, but it would produce enough to slow it or even reverse it…before he runs out of energy and gets dogpiled
@@LegendPurpleDragon152 That sounds a lot more better and would have improved the whole story. It would make them acknowledge the Super Form as the ultimate plan instead of just using it cause why not. Makes it feel less of a dues ex machina.
The thing that interests me is how Shadow thought he was immune, but how wrong he was. I feel like the reason why he was susceptible was because the virus _isn’t_ a disease. It’s all mini-nanobots designed to mimic a virus. With everyone labeling it as a “virus”, Shadow couldn’t have known that it was artificial, let alone not even a disease at all.
That actually makes sense when you think about it. The Metal Virus also doesn't have any symptoms aside from it consuming you when infected. The Nano Bots are also really small. So when Sonic burns them off. I assume some of them survive his speed. Which is also why burning them off doesn't cure you. The Nano Bots probably hide deep in your body, maybe in the blood. Considering fully infected Zombots can regenerate from even the most severe injuries, the Nano Bots after consuming the host, just converts them into a sort of biological Robot. It could also be, since the Metal Virus acts like a virus, it can reproduce and clone itself enough to just regenerate the Host from damage. Kinda like Iron Man's nanobots for his suit. Being able to undo the damage done to it. Also infection happens immediately after contact with a Zombot, probably because the Zombots are covered in those Nano Bots. They stick to a non infected by the slightest touch.
Watching Sonic actually talking to (heck, even ACKNOWLEDGING) other Sonic characters is just so refreshing! It's just something we don't see enough of in the games these days! Seriously Sega, stop listening to haters and detractors who whine about "Sonic's Stupid Friends!" Trying to appeal to them simply isn't improving the series at all!
Exactly; the deeper the lore and the more diverse the range of official characters, the better. One thing I love about the Sonic fandom is its ability to use characters from multiple continuities to craft a deeper and more multi-faceted world.
@@legoferrari14 The sad truth though is that there are people out there who just don't give a monkeys about the lore or storytelling of the Sonic games, and just want nothing more than running through loops and jumping on robots! These are the types of people who seem to get what they want, and yet fans who want to see better characterization, more in depth stories and some actual continuity that makes sense are treated like an afterthought, or just straight up ignored! "It's called Sonic the Hedgehog! So why should the games waste time focusing on all those other stupid characters who no one even likes?" I hate that kind of mentality! It's just not doing the series any good!
@@panch3470 True, but there's a part of me that thinks that Sega don't really care! If they can make money from people's nostalgia then that's all that matters to them. Christ, I don't think they even care when their games get bad reviews. They're probably just thinking "Well people are still buying our games, mostly so they can poke fun of them and accuse anyone who likes Sonic games as being weirdo furries, because they think it makes them look cool and clever! But we'll still make money, so who cares, right?" At least that's what it feels like!
While this is my least favourite issue of the comic because of how Shadow was written, your performances were great. I am so glad you chose the Sonic Heroes voice for Omega. I also like that Sonic and Shadow's voices got more robotic as the infection spread
@@mugen1777 In fairness, he genuinely thought his weird ass physiology would make him immune, and he says later on that he completely misinterpreted Sonic and Rouge's warnings. Still really dumb though.
@@mugen1777 It wasn't just Shadow's pride. The second we saw him in this issue, you could tell he was NOT happy, even more so than usual. Everything that's happened was because he didn't end Eggman in Windmill village, at least from his perspective. Even though it wasn't stated, he probably blamed himself as much as he blamed Sonic, and that only fueled his anger. His anger and pride kept him from thinking straight, which led to him being infected. That's at least how I see it.
Who ever voices Sonic, does a really good job at capturing those moments when he faces his limitations on helping someone of the people. It really shows how it affects him mentally and emotionally
@@LandyRShamblesI like to imagine in every scene with dialogue, you were doing Sonic's exact face to give the mood. I'm two years late, but you still did an amazing job!
To those who don't know, the original plan was for Shadow to unlock his inhibitor rings and instead use the energy output from those to combat the infection as an alternative to running. But Sega vetoed it, as they wanted Shadow's characterization to be written in a specific way (an overconfident rival, ala Vegeta). Hence why he's so OOC here.
it would be so much more badass if he went "cowards run, i win" and then took the inhibitors off and would really add up to the threat of the metal virus, how sega can manage to both love and hate its fans at the same time its a mystery to me
HOLY GUACAMOLE!!! Shadow's transition to a zombot was absolutely BONE CHILLING!!! The terror and panic in his voice was OUTSTANDING!! BRAVA BRAVA!!!👏👏👏👏
I think the immunity assumption makes sense for Shadow, given the whole 'Ultimate Cure' thing from Archie. I still would've had Shadow acknowledge it's too late for him instead of being stubborn.
The amount of fear in shadows voice in his last moments is just so beautifully portrayed same with Rouge and Omega they’re voices fit their characters so well its all just amazing
5:29 really get some cocky David humphrey vibes here, this is still easily the best dub of idw I've ever seen. Super well edited with fitting voices and great acting.
this is getting more and more serious and i actually love it,we don't really see this level of seriousness in anything sonic (as far as i know) and it's a really really nice breath of fresh air for me,and watching this very much so puts that into prospective, keep up the amazing work people
Civilian: Do we have time to thank that robot for saving us? 1:50 Omega: EXTERMINATE, EXTERMINATE! Me: Unless you want to get in the way of him exterminating all Eggaman robots, I say "no" Sonic: He's not the type of guy who doesn't need thanks.
2 things, first, PERFECT Omega voice. Really sounds like his Heroes incarnation. Second, I like how the voice work here sells the idea that Shadow's stubbornness came from a place of frustration with himself and Sonic rather than "Saiyan pride" like the comic. It's the more generous take on the scene, and makes it more palatable for me at least.
You know, even if Shadow was kinda out of character, he did have every right to be mad at Sonic. After all, Vector, Espoo and many others weren't entirely thrilled that Sonic spared Eggman either. The voice actors here were ace as usual.
4:39 This line is infamous because, well, it's just so bad. But the way it was executed here was -- hooooly cow, it made it feel so cool lmao. Huge props all around!
Can I just say, SONIC'S VOICE IN 4:14 and 4:19 IS SO AMAZING....The CRUNCHY voice is everything man, and also Shadow is made of Black Doom's blood, can that be infected cause I don't know for myself
Awesome job as always, everyone brought their A-game with this one. While I also have no love for the Sega mandates for Shadow's personality I did hear a great fan theory explaining some of his abrasiveness. It goes that since the last time he let a villain go, said villain, Infinite, became a world threatening terror. He was indirectly responsible for creating the deadliest foe he and his allies ever faced, witnessed him and Eggman take over the world, using replicas of his own image no less, and in the end he only played a supporting role in his defeat. The Sonics and the hero fixed his mistake. All things considered Shadow becoming more rash, prideful and violent due to the events of Forces don't seem too far-fetched.
That would make sense. Maybe he doesn't want another case like Infinite to happen again. Sonic's reluctance to kill his enemies reminds Shadow of how him not killing Infinite led to the Jackal becoming a nightmare
Really glad you noticed! Back then I was really stuck trying to figure out how I wanted to portray the character, but now I'm finally in a place where I know how I want to take him.
it was already pointed out but Shadow is getting the Vegeta treatment here aka someone just as powerful if not stronger in some ways is made to do something to put them out of action so the main character can be the one to save the day, he would not be this stubborn or even capable of contracting the virus if they wanted him in the story for more than a corrupted rival fight, that being said you guys killed it with the voice acting!
Honestly Sonic must be the most mentally tortured being in the world, he literally HAS to keep moving mentally and physically because if he ever really stopped to consider his life and his actions and all his losses, he would mentally break.
YES!!!! THIS MACHINE!!! HECK YEAH, I love the ost in this series!!!! And Team Dark's VAs? Perfection (are they new or am I imagining things?). Really like Shadow's voice, a very original take that fits very well (not too deep and slow like the 4Kids and SA2 voice and not too edgy and try-hard like the current one, just right). Rouge's voice is also a highlight, sounds very mature and serious with that hint of sexyness and playfulness that fits her femme fatale character. Omega tho? Nothing to say other than chef's kiss, the robot voices are always good (the sound mix on Sonic infected voice is godly). And we flawlesly passed the most infamous episode in the series. Shadow my friend, you got beaten by your own overconfidence, and Sonic and Rouge's poor choice of words (you know how Shadow gets at the mention of retreat, "run" is the last thing you need to tell him).
Holy smokes man, what can I say except the usual hahaha. Kat really did amazing, her direction was spot the heck on and exactly how I read it when the issue came out. But MAN Trev's performance!! I can't even comprehend just how perfect and then some he did, SPECIFICALLY with how he took on Shadow's transformation (seriously, were the shouts from anger to terror improvised?? Holy geez man). Anyway, great episode guys! Can't wait for the next one!!
I love how when shadow was fighting the Zombots We could hear the battle noises in the background and listening closely you could hear a Crack and after that The terror in shadow’s voice starts.
For those curious as to why Shadow let the Zombots touch him, as the Ultimate Life-Form, his initial purpose was to be immune to all known diseases on Earth. That way, his blood could be used as a miracle cure. So naturally, he would assume he'd be immune to this virus as well. Thats why he was shocked when he got infected.
Yoo that was super good! The audio and voice acting as always is on point! Also hands up for Omega because he's the best and none can convince me otherwise
A lot of people talked about the writing of these issues being angry with how Ian had written Shadow (even with the guidelines for SEGA) but I keep coming back to this dub because you guys did such a great job to make Shadow sound at least more in character. Everyone in these dubs do such a great job here. I appreciate all of the team on this!
This is so damn good lol. I binged this and now I'm sad cause I want this to be the way I experience this comic and its over for now. I've been spoiled by how professional this is
you know, first reading this i REALLY thought shadow wouldn't be able to be infected (what with the whole "you can't infect the ultimate lifeform" like or whatever). honestly, that should've been a major plot element that really could have used shadow in an interesting way, not to mention with a good explanation as the infection "can't spread to processed material" (as he was made in eggman's lab)! that would've been awesome to see, totally should've done something with that.
I personally love the development of each and everyone of these dubs on IDW! These are truly fantastic! The music, sound effects and transitions makes this way more visionary in your mind imagining these comics happened for real instead of still images.
Man, I love this saga and the dubbing and editing of you guys pleases me a lot, so much so that I feel like I'm watching the series for real!! A great job everyone!!
But honestly, you guys at Adrinaline Dubs are amazing! Ur voices are perfect and they fully express the tone of the situation and the characters. Keep up the fantastic work. 👏 I

@@gambler942 and that is why I said,as far as I know since I never read the Archie comics
Sonic SatAM
Civilian: Do we have time to thank that robot for saving us? 1:50
Omega: EXTERMINATE, EXTERMINATE!
Me: Unless you want to get in the way of him exterminating all Eggaman robots, I say "no"
Sonic: He's not the type of guy who doesn't need thanks.
2 things, first, PERFECT Omega voice. Really sounds like his Heroes incarnation.
Second, I like how the voice work here sells the idea that Shadow's stubbornness came from a place of frustration with himself and Sonic rather than "Saiyan pride" like the comic. It's the more generous take on the scene, and makes it more palatable for me at least.
6:40 - Outstanding work from Landy. These transitions are god tier with the voice direction, sound, and music.
I legit heard the fear in Shadow’s voice
I can *FEEL* the fear in that scream.
omega is the best robot ever lol. His lines are perfect
"We are not friends, you just stand in the way of my massacre"
"URGE TO MAIM-RISING!"
You know, even if Shadow was kinda out of character, he did have every right to be mad at Sonic. After all, Vector, Espoo and many others weren't entirely thrilled that Sonic spared Eggman either.
The voice actors here were ace as usual.
God, that was dark, in the coolest way possible, this one was the most fun to watch!
Damn Shadow's VA freakin *KILLED* it, man! Outstanding work from everyone!👏🏽👏🏽
4:39 This line is infamous because, well, it's just so bad. But the way it was executed here was -- hooooly cow, it made it feel so cool lmao. Huge props all around!
Yeah. Especifically regarding to how this is not faithful for what Shadow truly represents.
@@elmemearana Don’t blame Ian. SEGA literally makes him write Shadow like this because of their idiotic mandates. At least that’s what I’ve heard.
@@rockamillion2002 yeah, I know. I mean, Stanley is the main writer now, so practically SEGA wants he makes Shadow the way that she wants. It's sucks.
@@elmemearana I think the Sonic fan base should sign a petition to force SEGA to get rid of their mandates.
it wasnt bad
1:05 Yo! This Omega voice is on point! Sound like he's straight from his debut in Sonic Heroes.
Can I just say, SONIC'S VOICE IN 4:14 and 4:19 IS SO AMAZING....The CRUNCHY voice is everything man, and also Shadow is made of Black Doom's blood, can that be infected cause I don't know for myself
Awesome job as always, everyone brought their A-game with this one.
While I also have no love for the Sega mandates for Shadow's personality I did hear a great fan theory explaining some of his abrasiveness. It goes that since the last time he let a villain go, said villain, Infinite, became a world threatening terror. He was indirectly responsible for creating the deadliest foe he and his allies ever faced, witnessed him and Eggman take over the world, using replicas of his own image no less, and in the end he only played a supporting role in his defeat. The Sonics and the hero fixed his mistake.
All things considered Shadow becoming more rash, prideful and violent due to the events of Forces don't seem too far-fetched.
Yeah, that game was hard on everyone. LOL
"You have a bad habit of creating your own worst enemies "😂
That would make sense. Maybe he doesn't want another case like Infinite to happen again. Sonic's reluctance to kill his enemies reminds Shadow of how him not killing Infinite led to the Jackal becoming a nightmare
Shadow's voice has really improved since the issue #6 dub.
Really glad you noticed! Back then I was really stuck trying to figure out how I wanted to portray the character, but now I'm finally in a place where I know how I want to take him.
@@TrevZed Your shadow
voice is kinda a mix between the sa2 shadow voice and Jason Griffith
@@NoNamex1412I said the same thing! Love it!
This was certainly worth the wait! What a dub this was!
The only downside here was shadow being a douche.
it was already pointed out but Shadow is getting the Vegeta treatment here aka someone just as powerful if not stronger in some ways is made to do something to put them out of action so the main character can be the one to save the day,
he would not be this stubborn or even capable of contracting the virus if they wanted him in the story for more than a corrupted rival fight,
that being said you guys killed it with the voice acting!
No mf just doesn't wanna listen
Love the voice for shadow it fits him alot better than most! you guys are all doing an amazing job!
3:53
Sonic: "Hey is that the truck that-"
Truck: [Rams a mob of zombots]
Sonic: *"Yep."*
4:36 I waited about a year to hear TrevZed say that line. He did NOT disappoint!
The minute I saw this on my feed, I didn’t hesitate. I just clicked on the video, and went right onto it!!! 🔥🔥🔥
Same
Bruh, the infected voices sound AMAZING. Sonic and Shadow sounded superb!
🖤❤️
@@TrevZed
Seriously bro, I think you might be my favourite Shadow Fan-Voice.
Omega in the background of 1:36 saying "I will hit you so hard you will die to death." is a golden reference. xP
That "Shut. Up." was so clear-
TrevZed's giving Shadow kind of a new voice, I see...
Not really, though?
@@HypeVoiceActing I get your point. I meant it being kind of a new performance.
Honestly I like this VA for him. I invision him with a deep voice but this one is just *chefs kiss*
Honestly Sonic must be the most mentally tortured being in the world, he literally HAS to keep moving mentally and physically because if he ever really stopped to consider his life and his actions and all his losses, he would mentally break.
This version of the song "this machine" playing in the background really fit the vibe and amped up the urgency I love it
YES!!!! THIS MACHINE!!! HECK YEAH, I love the ost in this series!!!!
And Team Dark's VAs? Perfection (are they new or am I imagining things?). Really like Shadow's voice, a very original take that fits very well (not too deep and slow like the 4Kids and SA2 voice and not too edgy and try-hard like the current one, just right). Rouge's voice is also a highlight, sounds very mature and serious with that hint of sexyness and playfulness that fits her femme fatale character. Omega tho? Nothing to say other than chef's kiss, the robot voices are always good (the sound mix on Sonic infected voice is godly).
And we flawlesly passed the most infamous episode in the series. Shadow my friend, you got beaten by your own overconfidence, and Sonic and Rouge's poor choice of words (you know how Shadow gets at the mention of retreat, "run" is the last thing you need to tell him).
🖤❤️
1:22 Omega’s flawless logic in an argument. Also Shadow you fool, you were warned several times, you even saw it happening to you.
Holy smokes man, what can I say except the usual hahaha. Kat really did amazing, her direction was spot the heck on and exactly how I read it when the issue came out.
But MAN Trev's performance!! I can't even comprehend just how perfect and then some he did, SPECIFICALLY with how he took on Shadow's transformation (seriously, were the shouts from anger to terror improvised?? Holy geez man).
Anyway, great episode guys! Can't wait for the next one!!
AHHH THANKS BRO! I really wanted to capture that transition so I'm glad it made it into the final cut.
@@TrevZed Ofc man! You're always knocking it outta the park!
"is it my turn to say i told you so?"
that got me XD
because shadow became reckless and got infected and he says i told you so
nice voice acting
Loving this ALOT! The emotion in the voices are impeccable, makes these dubs so good. Keep it up guys!
Shadow’s acting was so good. The dub is amazing!
Holy crap Shadow’s Scream at the end sent chills down my spin massive props to Trev
Rouge’s VA is really good, she adds the level of seriousness and classy charm…Good job!!
@@KatAlystsStage you’re welcome
I love how when shadow was fighting the Zombots We could hear the battle noises in the background and listening closely you could hear a Crack and after that The terror in shadow’s voice starts.
4:36 *"Cowards* run. *I* win."
**A few minutes later**
6:40
Awesome job, everyone. I loved the pacing and editing for this one, you guys really nailed the horror of this issue
For those curious as to why Shadow let the Zombots touch him, as the Ultimate Life-Form, his initial purpose was to be immune to all known diseases on Earth. That way, his blood could be used as a miracle cure. So naturally, he would assume he'd be immune to this virus as well. Thats why he was shocked when he got infected.
So glad you guys let me lend my voice to this episode.
This is honestly a dream come true for me.
You guys rock!
thanks to you
The voice a thing has no right being this good
Shadows guttural screams were so eerie!
The scream from Shadow when being pulled by the zombots gave me chills. Amazing work!
Yoo that was super good! The audio and voice acting as always is on point! Also hands up for Omega because he's the best and none can convince me otherwise
Oh my god Omega sound AMAZING! The voice acting and editing is on POINT!
A lot of people talked about the writing of these issues being angry with how Ian had written Shadow (even with the guidelines for SEGA) but I keep coming back to this dub because you guys did such a great job to make Shadow sound at least more in character.
Everyone in these dubs do such a great job here. I appreciate all of the team on this!
This is so damn good lol. I binged this and now I'm sad cause I want this to be the way I experience this comic and its over for now. I've been spoiled by how professional this is
That scream shadow made was so realistic 6:51
As I was waiting for it, with each video that is released, the quality of your work improves more and more
The editing. The voice acting. All of it are sheer perfection. Totally Patreon worthy!
Shadow: "Well, there goes my character development."
you know, first reading this i REALLY thought shadow wouldn't be able to be infected (what with the whole "you can't infect the ultimate lifeform" like or whatever). honestly, that should've been a major plot element that really could have used shadow in an interesting way, not to mention with a good explanation as the infection "can't spread to processed material" (as he was made in eggman's lab)! that would've been awesome to see, totally should've done something with that.
Oh my freaking goodness. I just found this dub series and MY GOSH.
This is better quality then most modern movies.
I hear that this machine in the intro!
I love what you guys have done an incredible job with this
Also love Shadow's performance
3:56 I didn't know Shadow had a driver's license. 🤣
1:54 "EXTERMINATE! EX TER MIN ATE!" This is just hilarious!!! 🤣
I personally love the development of each and everyone of these dubs on IDW!
These are truly fantastic! The music, sound effects and transitions makes this way more visionary in your mind imagining these comics happened for real instead of still images.
6:05 does anyone know from where this music came? (It's Amazing)
Man, I love this saga and the dubbing and editing of you guys pleases me a lot, so much so that I feel like I'm watching the series for real!! A great job everyone!!
This is the funniest issue of the whole run, Omega and Shadow are both comedy gold here
First dub I've seen on your channel in a while and oh my gosh, the voice acting is incredible. It's so dramatic and real-sounding, gives me chills!
3:58 Enter the Edgehog...
I love that angry face on Shadow in the thumbnail, it looks so feral and nothing but engaging, it's perfect
Shadow should pose like this more often
Man you guys are just killing it with these dubs.
WOW the editing just keeps getting better and better. This is seriously impressive.
I love the voice acting for Shadow, other people often take it too far, but you did a good job
THIS IS ABSOLUTELY FANTASTIC, KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK YA’LL!
But honestly, you guys at Adrinaline Dubs are amazing! Ur voices are perfect and they fully express the tone of the situation and the characters. Keep up the fantastic work. 👏 I
Shadow dub is incredibly amazing, especially his soreal and terror in his screams
It gives me chills
Rouge and Omega Dub is on point too. I can't believe this is a fandub honestly
outstanding work per-usual. you're all knocking this series out of the park, making sonic dubbing history.
The part when shadow was struggling gave me shivers up my spine and it was terrifying
