Trip the Sungazer is, in my view, The most underrated things about Sonic Superstars! Her character, backstory, Super form (A golden dragon!) and budding friendship with Amy Rose all make for some very interesting possibilities for the Sonic the Hedgehog series going forward! Trip adventuring with Amy? Trip treasure hunting with Knuckles? The potential stories are endless. And it really helps put to rest the old "Sonic's stupid friends" narrative.
The Sonic series is packed full of deep and interesting characters, and it was an absolute pleasure to deep dive into the character of Trip. I wasn't expecting the level of depth that she got, both in character and backstory. So let's get after it, and discuss!

Trip deserve rainbows and happiness! 😊
She really does!
True that.
Agreed
True
She deserves kindness and appreciation she’s an small child 😢
Trip is adorable and I love her.
She’s totally adorable! I see some endearing stuff ahead, with her and Amy.
@@AceCardGaming Yes that's true. Sadly I can't get the game so I watched a playthrough, but when I saw her meeting Amy, I was like "Aww...", and same when she blushed and put her helmet back on with a smile in the ending cutscene.
We need more Knuckles and Trip interactions too.
In five years of being a Sonic fan, I've had a hard time answering the question of who my favorite Sonic character is, but I think Trip has a chance of being exactly that. At the very least, I can't wait to see more of her.
I want to see more of trip and she's just wonderful!
I've had lots of favorites and started to enjoy them as a whole
I think the one person I was closest to having a hatred or dislike for was Shadow 😂
I have that same problem in 30 years of being a fan
Trip is probably the best Sonic character since Tangle and Whisper. I love seeing someone who is fresh and new. The series needs more new characters like Trip.
Considering Amy was talking about inviting trip out for their anniversary, We can get a Modern Trip very soon!
If I recall correctly sonic team and Flynn have confirmed that superstars is after the classic games but before adventure so it’ll be interesting to see how they explain her absence in the modern timeline
Or how they add her in! I’m looking forward to seeing it happen.
It's probably just gonna be that's she's busy guarding her island :p
@@Potatoboii2you are right!She protects her island
It could just be that they haven't run into her in Modern Sonic yet. Remember that backstories aren't necessarily consistent between Classic and Modern timelines, because they are technically two separate universes. Things may be possible in Modern that are not possible in Classic.
@@SBabyNope it's been confirmed that classic Sonic is simply Modern Sonic's past self not from a separate universe or dimension so the events of games like Superstar are canon to the modern game.
I really love Trip. She has a great story arc, and I'd love to see her modern design as well. I've seen fan art of it, but I want SEGA to expand on it. Maybe even have her interact with Knuckles since her backstory is akin to his.
Petition to make trip a continuous character in the sonic franchise
I’d sign that!
Trip instantly became a fave of mine. Back in my tot days I had a sonic charcter that wa a fox/wolf that super form was a silver dragon.
Later in life I made them a character for DnD as a silver dragon in a beast person glamour to assist good hearted people.
Trip feels like that character relized to me. And i hope she get folded wholesale into Somic universe.
I kinda wanna see Trip and Tikal interact in someway! Chaos Emerald and Master Emerald girlies! It's kinda like a simple retelling of Sonic Adventure to me ^O^
trip immediately became one of my favourite characters in the series, i love her to bits
Trip is baby and must be protected at all costs
Trip’s design is really weird considering she exists in the same universe as Vector…but hey, she’s several steps up from “Infinite”, being well written and all.
It’s not weird at all considering sungazer lizards aren’t that big. We have espio after all
@@ROT695 Actually, that’s a fair point.
@@vengeflyking2722 I want to know why Big is so huge compared to Blaze. Dude had an amazing growth spurt 🤣
@@ROT695he’s a different breed
To his credit, Infinite looks and sounds fantastic. It's just a shame that his writing is so weak next to his design.
Out of the recent Original Character the Sonic Universe has made with Tangle, Whisper, Lanolin, Surge, Trip:
Trip may be my favorite.
I totally relate to Trip. I especially love that she's a reptile. We need more of those.
Just like with Mighty and Ray, I really want to see a Modern version of Trip and Fang, i always love when classic characters transition over into the modern timeline of a game series.
And you're right, it'll be interesting seeing just how Sonic Team will bring her over to the modern games.
Fang is his snarky and clever self in this game, I wonder what a modern version of him would be like?
Fang would be amazing in the modern timeline. He was so expressive in Superstars and that was with zero voice acting. I’d say if they nail their choice in VA, he’d be a top tier villain.
Yep and I say go for Fred T or Robbie Daymond as the voice for Fang. ^^
@@erindelgado9639nah I always felt that Fang had a more Meowth kind of voice to his character
@@almir-chan9570 Fair enough. :)
She is so adorable 😊
I sort of would like to see her interact with the Chaotix, Trip learns Fang is up to no good again and wants to stop him while running into them because Vector wants to capture Fang for the reward money. I think she and Espio in particular would work very well together.
Trip wields the power of cute really love her design and surprisingly she’s the first dragon character in the series 😮😮😮 hope this isn’t the last of her 🥰🥰🥰🥰
She's pretty much Knuckles without what makes him, him.
In a way, I'm happy Trip exists because she made me realize how KNUCKLES is incredible and how I've been downplaying him for the longest time. When I see her, I see how Knuckles could've have been. They both have kindness and sense of duty, but also loneliness [with no other humanized animal to hang with] and burdened at staying where their ancestors lived. But Knuckles was stronger in these times. He had to do what he had to do even without friends because he couldn't be weak for the sake of everything he knew. Trip even cares about making friends when we met her, while Knuckles didn't give af about friends and was chill with being on his own.
[in the classic game not movie, He didn't want Eggman's friendship or was open to it, he just immediately trusted him because Eggman made it believable Sonic was the bad guy and not him. I doubt he cared at all about his "friendly" connection with Eggman before his betrayal]
He's everything Trip is, but better.😂 I'm not throwing shade at her because I really do like her, but being 'cuter' isn't gonna put her higher than Knuckles for me.
But I thank you for helping me see Knux in a better light, Trip the Sungazer😊
Trip is adorable, and I want to adopt her! I love her story, and she has the coolest super form of all!
Fantastic video as always! Definetly want to see more of Trip and an adventure with Amy would be amazing!
Trip is such a great character and I can’t wait for trip’s future experiences and Trip’s introduction was very good and I feel bad for trip that Trip doesn’t believe into herself while always I love Trip character in Superstars. Great video Ace)
Glad you enjoyed it!
Well you heard it, the quiet and humble person that nobody pays attention to that I am is the best !
All joking aside, it's true that I'm quiet and humble... well... mostly humble, even borderline self-deprecating sometimes, and that nobody pays attention to me.
I wish people paid more attention to me and what I do because I put passion into it, but I always go unnoticed.
She baby. If we ever do team stuff again Trip Amy and cream would make for a cute Team Rose. That is if Big is busy.
Trip is precious and must be protected at all costs because Fang is a jerk, she even cooked him pancakes and gave him the good ones and she kept the burnt ones
What do you expect of Fang? He's a criminal
He suck as a person and as a character
I love her
I'm going to say this. I hope the end credit scene of frontiers gives us 4 new games, a girls game where Amy solidifies herself and she goes on a "roadtrip" with her gal-pals (maybe including trip?). A tails game, where we get to see our favorite boy grow again (sa1 & sa2 we're great), a knuckles game bringing forward some peace and closure from frontiers, and 1 where they all meet again as a sequel to frontiers.
All hail Trip
Trip is really a loving character acecardgaming and I love her story about her! ❤😍
She’s the best character!
I do hope that Trip can eventually appear in the modern timeline, and maybe if she does well, it could allow other classic characters who have been stuck in that timeline to come over and get modern designs. But even if Trip is the only classic character to get a modern design, I'll be fine. The modern characters have already mentioned Mighty and Ray in TailsTube, so at least they exist. It'd also be neat to have a conversation between her and Blaze, as they're both guardians that share a connection with Amy, just like Knuckles. I'm glad that so many people are enjoying the new characters added into the new games as of lately. Before Frontiers, we got the Avatar from Forces and Dodon Pa from TSR, both just kinda mediocre characters (though I did kinda like the Avatar). But now, characters like Sage and Trip are already becoming fan favorites, and I like them a lot too. Can't wait to see them more in the future, and I'm definitely wondering how the new character in Dream Team will resonate with fans. Also, it Trip does get moved over to the modern timeline, would her super form get an update too? Could be pretty cool to maybe see a more grown up version of her super form. At least after we get modern super forms for Amy, Knuckles, and Tails. Please Sonic Team.
I love to see trip on a new adventure with sonic in a new game!
Huh, how very interesting, you covered this very well.
I feel like Trip is the Sage of the Classic Era, ‘cause similar to Sage, I am wondering if we’ll see her again and when we do? Maybe she get her own Game?
By the way, which Classic Characters would you like to see in the Modern Era the most?
Every one (Mighty, Ray, Fang, Bean, Bark and Trip), Break Takashi Iizuka's Classic Sonic spit and make the timeline whole again.
she is cute and id like to see her and knuckles do gaurdian stuff together
6:51 Sea of Stars music used
Always happy to see people recognise peak. 😁
I really like Trip, hopefully she and the other Classic Era characters are allowed to make a reappearance in the present with new older designs. (Just want to clarify thanks to the new lore council that stupid retcon from Forces was done away with, we're back to one world and one timeline)
Honestly I feel like the two timeline thing is less convoluted. Timeline wise if they keep doing classic games and just shoving them somewhere between it’s going to get confusing. If they just continued the classic timeline as there own it would of been easier
@@ROT695
Just because something is easier doesn't make it good, nor is being convoluted automatically bad. It robs Sonic and co. of any character development, cast of returning characters and weakens Sonic's core differentiation from Mario, its continuity. Running from this to please Mario and Sonic fans is what caused what many consider to be a true dark age the Meta Era. Classic is already separated by a time skip, there isn't really much confusion to be had in relation to the Modern Era and the Future Era. (where Silver is from) Even if it was its own timeline with enough games it was going to become convoluted regardless just because Sonic is a long runner.
Two worlds. remember, the Sol Dimension is still a thing.
@@kennyholmes5196
The two worlds specially refers to the widly disliked idea of a human world and a mobian world that Sonic crosses over from even though the games require 1 world to make sense. If you want to be that specific than its 6 worlds. Earth, Little Planet, Sol Dimension, Lost Hex, Planet Wisp and Planet Donpa Kingdom
@@TheSwordsman100 Funny story about that bit about the two-worlds idea as you stated... It's a mistranslation. SEGA themselves have confirmed that the Mobian cultures are found on the frontiers, while the humans all live in more concentrated areas.
But yes, there are indeed six worlds, and they are the ones that you listed, plus one additional one: Special Space/Timeless Space/Null Space. You know, the dimension that the Chaos Emeralds hid themselves away in during the Classic Era.
09:23 that's literally how i called him the first time i fought him
I JUST LOVE 7:24 SO MUCH
Trip 👉👈 Ogerpon
Being precious little girls with masks
No wonder I got attached to both as comfort characters quick
Trip is superstar best character
Another great new female character to the roster... let's see if ariem from sonic dream team can keep the combo going
11:47 what is going on with Knuckles here
I think he likes chewing on his hair. Thinks it makes him look cute.
7:05
I guess even shy people have their limits
I don't think she was pleading with Fang so much as saying "I won't LET you do this anymore, she already knows he can't be reasoned with but just need a last little boost to DO something about him.
Funny that she's only relevant on the middle last part of the playthrough
Most of the time she just trips (like her name suggest)
She's incompetent as a villain but op as a hero
How ironic lol
4:40 - I've heard some rumors about Modern Trip. If they turn out to be generally true... Well let's put it this way. D&D fans, remember the War of the Lance? Yeah...
What if fang be that dragon ? Maybe her dragon form was sealed , Then he tries to retransform. That Wold be her reson to Work
to eggman.
I enjoy watching a new female character from sonic the hedgehog
Tbh, I'm not very fond of her character design, but she's a very charming addition to the cast 🧡
HELL
*Y E S*
🦎🧡💛🐉
I feel like Trip's a great character with an extremely scuffed introduction.
Like, considering that the main sourse of anything related to her is a mural, that shows up for two times is a bit weird. The game doesn't even focus on it or anything: it just appears as a background element. And that makes later game stuff extremely out-of-nowhere to ost of people. Plus, i find the extra game mode a bit disappointing. Like, for a game mode, which focuses on the brand new character, you'd expect to learn a bit about her past, maybe see some interactions with previously seen foes, concidering her character development. Yet, the only unique moment we get here is the final boss.
Hope we get to see her in a newer games.
Also, Might/Ray/Trip teamup for life.
I think because they literally made her campaign work basically the same as Knuckles’ in S3&K, I didn’t go in expecting anything more.
Yeah, understandable.
Thanks for putting spoilers on the thumbnail sweetie
0:00 Well then, why do you have Trip’s unmasked face on the thumbnail?
@AceCardGaming 8:55- No, not purple. Pink. Purple is Frenzy. Pink is Spikes.
Ok!
