Funny enough Ken Penders, the artist for the Archie Sonic Comics, paraphrased a famous poem about the holocaust to make it about the echidnas. It was already canon before this show, Sonic is crazy.
The candle scene and the musical episode will never convince that this show doesn't have passion. Hate it all you want, but I wouldn't call it soulless.
This is the same franchise thats about to gun down a 13 year old girl in space in order to give a black hedgehog voiced by John Wick some character development.
@@COSun25 Considering they kept Knuckles backstory virtually intact and only basically changed Sonic's which was like one of the only Sonic characters with no backstory then... Yeah that child is dying one way or another. Either getting gunned down by the government or because of Space Aids (which I think was the reason Shadow was even created in the first place)
@@diegomedina9637 yeah, and then there was that post with Maria's actor in a body bag giving a thumbs up, which seems like some sort of confirmation. maybe they might not directly show her getting shot if the movie is still PG rated, but I remember even in the 4Kids dub of Sonic X (which was TV-Y7, so that's lower than PG) they do allude to her being killed and just cut off footage of her being physically shown getting shot. like the 4kids dub did cut out a lot of stuff to achieve a TV-Y7 rating, but allusions to death or some rare cases of on screen death did happen. Like this ranges from robot characters who have a conscious (Gamma and Emerl) , events in the past like the disaster that happened between the chao, the Echidna tribe, and chaos(I am wondering if Chaos would be a thing in the movie series seeing as how the Knuckles tribe seem to be eliminated by owls instead), Maria (they just don't say die, but Gerald Robotnik and Shadow refer to her in past tense and say she was taken away or how they lost her), Yellow Zelkova (who's death is actually shown on screen and interestingly references Metal Sonic's death in the Sonic OVA), the flashback regarding Cosmo's race being harmed, and then there's Cosmos herself dying and taking Dark Oak with her. The interesting thing about Sonic X is that they actually even added a character, the man who shot Maria, and they go into the implications and the regret the man has for shooting her, confirming she was killed with phrases like "she was so young." I think it's better shown than said, but here's an example: twitter.com/MegaMaster1021/status/1753497491973001266
7:16 the first images of this show was knuckles and the mom drinking coffee on the porch next morning and just thought that was the show. Like each sonic character was staying at a different human's house and knuckles just lived with and old lady
Well I mean, didn't he copy a holocaust poem for the echidna tribe in one of the issues? "They came for the hedgehogs, and I did not speak up, because I was not a hedgehog. Then they came for the echidnas, and there was no one left to speak for me."

So, are they going to talk about the master emerald? Maybe talk about the origins of how he became the guardian of the master emerald? Will they show the floating island? Heck, maybe he might even develop the chaotix team or maybe he'll fight against rouge!.... Wade's private cardboard cutout?.... THAT'S A SONIC UNIVERSE STORY I'M FAMILIAR WITH!
That wasn't the point I was trying to make. Also, I agree with you because they never mentioned it anyway. My point is that they weren't focusing on Knuckles but instead focused more on Wade, even though the show is called 'Knuckles.'"
@@HellfireComms So, I watched the show. I did like a lot of it, especially when Knuckles in it and the characters aren't that bad. With that being said however, I still do think they should have focused more on Knuckles. I also think some scenes got a little too weird. For example, Wade jumping out of the bounty Hunter's cage. I knew somehow he'd escape, but how the heck did he jump so high? That didn't make sense. As weird as the Chief scene was with Wade, I can at least accept the fact that he was unconscious and that Chief was speaking to him thru his unconscious state, which actually makes the rock valid more believable because it's something Wade would imagine, so that scene didn't bother me as much as the scene where he jumps out of the roof of the cage. I didn't see the part where Wade obtained chaos energy. I think that all that aside, having a show that has also cool scenes as well kind of makes up for it and it's neat that they made a show in the first place, they didn't have to. I think they could also salvage some of it by maybe having a second season which focuses a little more on Knuckles perhaps. Who knows where this franchise is going. The last episode was much better than I thought it was going to be! Very ending meh, but the post credit was interesting, he found his jam.
@@dishonorabledimensions1683 It's not, but it is like Ted, but that's how both Sonic movie's are as well and those did really good. Also, having people in the movies kind of makes sense since there are human characters in the franchise such as Sonic Adventure, Sonic Adventure 2, Sonic X, etc. They also have to try to make it entertaining for those who weren't familiar with the franchise, so I kind of get what they're going with. The third movie I hear is more geared toward the fans, so I'm looking forward to that one a lot.
I still love this show. Episode 3 is knuckles realizing “tribes” like his aren’t just training to be warriors but can be actual families so by the end he realizes he likes having a family and isn’t just about training all the time. The holocaust joke made my jaw drop when I first watched it but I did like the Jewish rep. It was very tasteful and wasn’t just “haha greedy Jews” or some bs like rhat
Knuckles trauma bonding with an old Jewish woman about the Holocaust and Wade’s gooner arc were not what I expected from episode 3 after enjoying the first 2
It would've been better if the climatic bowling alley was videogame-themed Just like they did with Wade's musical, where he was dressed as Knuckles and was "playing" the games
As much as people hated the episode 4, it was one of my favorities, I loved how out of nowhere it was and how it was NOTHING like the episodes before it, I love this show. 😭
14:05 It looks like 2007 RU-vid 🤣It came full circle to being funny again using puppets like those videos of sonic/mario that get millions of views. I want more of wades mom pull of The Raid chorography 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
What Knuckles went through is arguably worse than the Holoc*ust, his entire tribe and species was genocided and there was nothing he could do about it (also his father died in front of him). And don't forget the fact that all the pressure of having to get the Master Emerald all alone, when his people failed to even with whole hunting parties
You know. If i were to get a nickel for every time I saw a movie or series that mentions American Gladiators, I'd get two or three nickels. It's not a lot. But it's strange that it happened to me twice.
I'm kind of curious to what it would look like if they made sonic puppets and had them interact with the actors I think it could look really cute if done well, probably not for an action movie but maybe for a short series
The more i think about ken penders the more weird coincidences i keep seeing. His stupid movie pitch, the echidna Holocaust reflects in knuckles finding Judaism...yikes
