Sonic X- Down under.

[Krazed Kitsune]

WOAH! Stop the press, everyone!
What's this I hear about Sonic X's final episode in America being no.26 or something?
In Australia, we are currently up to episode 35 or something. It's the 'Chaos' season or whatever its called. It's just a cartoon version of the games.
Don't get your hopes up. Seriously, guys, this is TERRIBLE !! The episodes are too short, the characterisation is bad... everything bad about sonic X just gets worse!
SPOILER--
We all remember the bit in Sonic Adventure where Tails had to race Eggman to get to the missile and stop it blowing up, right? Well, that bit's in the series... and they blew it, big time!
Eggman drops a box which folds out to become a missile That's the first WTH of the episode. The the missile takes off, lands and instead of being point detonating like in the game (It malfunctioned), its a bomb-like missile.
Instead of there being a powerful, moving scene where Tails gets some confidence, he has a twenty second whinge and runs off to defuse the bomb in less than ten seconds.
Now, why did Eggman even make a missile, if it was going to go straight up and down? Why wasn't it point detonating? Why didn't they take Tails' little scene seriously?
Man, Sonic X SUCKS!!! Naka, you are a fool!!!

I'm pretty p*ssed that Yuji Baka...er, Naka, and the Sonic X crew didn't take Tails seriously!!
Tails and Sonic are the most liked characters in Sonic, because they are the oldest. Can Naka see this? Nope.

Once the cartoon of the game gets to you guys, tell me if you notice something: to fit in with the games, is it me, or did they try (failed miserably) to focus more on Tails?

I will admit, though. I can't wait for the cartoon of SA2 and Heroes.

Oy... thats pretty bad... So they take it EVEN MORE away from Sonic Adventures... nuu! its just like when robotnik gave Chaos 2 emeralds right in the beginning, and when did Chaos become "Electric"? I dont remember that...

I say someone should make a new Sonic Series, based off of SaTAM! no more Sonic X puhlease! its annoying!

Sonic X is doing very good though and it follows the story almost perfect. It was made as one of those "all ages" shows so that sorta ruined it for older people. I hate SatAM and Underground so I hope they continue the path they are on now. A new series with no human would be cool, maybe a story about how things were happening in the Genesis games. Seeing the old Robotnik and Knuckles being bad would be really cool if you ask me, espically with no humans to get in the way. New Sonic X trading cards are comming too, two different types from two different companies.(as seen in link)

You just found out about Sonic X being in Australia? Here what I posted on the Tails2k board back on Sep 14 2004.

At the start of this week Sonic X was shown on Ten's Cheez TV. They are showing five episodes a week. There are a few differences in the Australian version from the American version. For starters the Australian version has a new, and better, intro aswell as new credits.
The intro has a new song which I don't remember and the credits music is just a remix of the American intro. When I get my video decoder working I'll put them both on line, and by that I mean I need help.
I have noted a few differences between the versions on episode 3.

Jap Version:

* The best intro of episode 3.
* While hanging onto the planes ladder you can hear the plane.
* The weapons at the end sound like machine guns.

FR Version:

* I have not seen episode 3 in this version.

US Version:

* The worst intro of episode 3.
* While hanging onto the planes ladder you can hear crummy music.
* The weapons at the end sound like lasers.

AU Version:

* An alright intro of episode 3.
* While hanging onto the planes something happens which I don't remember.
* The weapons at the end sound like silenced machine guns.

Yeah, I've seen the American version of Ep3. Yes, the theme song, 'Sonic X' (original name, not) is cooler than the American 'Gotta Go faster'.

Hey, Kogen, what's wrong with SatAM? Why do you hate it? I'm just curious.
SatAM is REALLY good, if you haven't seen the entire series.
Sonic X's fancy animation and stuff DOESN'T make it superior to SatAM. They just look try-hard! Sonic X WOULD be better than SatAM, but the single area SatAM OWNS everything in is its plot.

Hey, Kyran, ur info was correct. We watch Sonic X on Cheez Tv at in the mornings, but they MAY or MAY NOT show five a week... once they only did two in a week.

So in the different countries, they have different sounds? and in japan, they sound like machine guns, not friggin lasers!? W00t!? I thought that they just made it sound like lasers just for the kids, but the guns actualy sound more REAL!?

and why do you think SaTAM is stupid? Thats the only sonic show that actualy HAD a huge plot in it! Sonic X didnt have a plot really. They find out about an emerald, robotnik sends a robot that his slotmachine picks, starts beating sonic, finds a way to destroy it, gets emerald, wins. Not much plot there, but it is kind of funny, especialy in the episode where sonic ticks off knuckles when he was persuaded that sonic is bad (For the god dang 3rd time! jeeze!). "Your brain is even slower than your feet!" "Huh!? *suprised look*"

In SaTAM, there was actualy for once a great story-line. Although it didnt have Tails in it too much (Hes only 4 years old), cause really, if you think about it, Tails is real young in that show, so its by nature that kids get scared a lot, thats why he stays in the village... If you want to see Tails a lot, watch the episode "Sonic and Sally". (available on DVD).

Overall, im disappointed SaTAM had to end and about Sonic X as well, since it gets too repetative and no plot really...

You don't see Maria die in the English versions.
