PRIORITY Q&A

Outside of Metal Sonic (or Shard by extension), who is your favourite Sonic robot seen in the games? I've always found the potential for the other Sonic 'bots to have stories of their own unique from Metal Sonic interesting and wanted to know if you guys have any pet favourites. (sonic bot as in Robot Based On Sonic)

Is stuff from the Sonic movie like Longclaw off limits? Or has it not even been brought up yet? Speaking of which, is there anything from the movies that you would like to use (you don’t have to say what if you can’t), and what are your thoughts on it getting a sequel? I’m feeling the hype!

Was Norse Mythology an influence for Drogune? And a quick followup, what were other influences for Drogune?

I used to like Sonamy but now I see the relationship as abusive and unhealthy. What’s worse, Amy obsessing over Sonic is what Sonamy fans like about the paring. Amy's behavior is not a good influence on girls. Think about it, if SEGA does decide to make the pairing canon, they’d be sending a terrible message to girls everywhere, which is stalking and obsessing over their heroes will be rewarded. What do you personally think of this?
STANDARD Q&A

[...]I would like to ask for your help and advice. Initially, I thought I would send a collection of CGI animations to Sega that would be the "cutscenes" for my story. But I've realized that realistically this wouldn't happen, even if by a miracle my story was accepted. My only plan now is to somehow catch their attention, perhaps by making animated short stories and becoming a part of the official team. Maybe then I could share my idea in a presentation of some sort. But I still feel lost and worried that I can't achieve this. Thus, that brings me here. I want to thank you again for taking the time to read this email, and for listening to my personal story.

-Q: Is Silver a tricky character to write given the fact that he's very overpowered and is arguably one of the strongest characters among the Sonic cast?

-What will you be planning for Sonic’s 30th anniversary in comics? And if Sega were ever to do a Sonic Adventure 3 or Sonic Chronicles 2, what would they be about?

When it comes to Sonics World, how does it look like with education? Are there public schools in the world or is it more of sort of a home schooled system?

Kyle what was it like setting up a Podcast? Are there any tips you can give to people starting up a Podcast?

Also, I completely forgot to mention that I was fully aware of Amy's change in character in recent years, it's just, again, that one was for the fans who don't think Amy and Sonic should be an item despite what I just mentioned. The mindset of me not wanting Sonic to be with Amy was when I got back into the Sonic series sometime around between late 2014 to early 2015 where I began relooking at the games and rewatching Sonic X and seeing how much of an unpleasant brat Amy was on that show, and even in some of the games during that era, and people say that Chris was the worst character in Sonic X. As a result of all that, I started shipping Sonic with different characters like Blaze and Sally, even going to far as to ship Sonic with an OC, I was so unfaithful back then. But since then, things have changed and I'm quite surprised, but at the same time proud that Ian is doing her character some justice, even if it is in a comic book. Hopefully, we'll see more of that Amy in the future (the not-crazy-stalker,-obsessive-fan-girl-but-instead-the-independent-optimistic Amy,-not-the-Sally-clone Amy) if you get what I mean.
Thank you for asking answering my question I was only asking on behalf of the fans who still see the ship as toxic, no matter how much Amy’s character has improved. In fact, what got me to want to ask this question was Lord Danny’s video on why SonAmy should not be canon back in October 2019, he’s a good Sonic-tuber and he’s done some great videos besides the aforementioned, so please don’t take this the wrong way. But now, not only me but to everyone else who is concerned about this, our minds will finally be at ease. And about the previous question, like the one with Espio’s family, and the questions about the deconstruction for the modern Sonic game, I'm not sure if you got my tweet so I’ll just say it here, what I was asking from you is if Espio was raised under a ninja clan in your head-canon, not the fact that Constant Vigil is Espio’s mother, and what I meant was a deconstruction that was similar to The Simpsons Movie where the seasons starting from season 9, all the way up to the recent season at the time of the movie’s release with “jerkass Homer”. Also, “Robotnik” isn’t a Russian word, it’s Polish. “Robotnik” is the Polish word for “worker”, but yes, I can definitely see the rivalry between Sonic and Eggman being an allegory of US Capitalism and Russian Communism is just so mind-blowing, so bizarre.
