Added Alliterative Appeal: In the dub, every Previously On is a mass of alliterations.The traditional Badniks only appear in the comic book adaptation.The Metarex instead take their place as antagonist in Season 3. The Black Arms who made their debut in Shadow the Hedgehog do not appear in the anime.While all three characters appear in the anime at one point, Chaos, Gamma, and Shadow are removed from the Sonic Battle arc.
Absurdly Youthful Father: Chuck, Nelson's father, is 55 in the first part of the series while Nelson himself is 43.Tanaka end up with Topaz? Is the same President still in office? Did Sonic leave a long-lasting impact on the world? What about Chris's friends? There are no answers. There is no exploration of how their lives have changed six years later. After Chris travels to Sonic's world, his friends and family are only occasionally shown being concerned about him.The closest thing to an explanation was a line or two somewhat implying that Eggman convinced them to come back. After that episode, this was pretty much abandoned for no clear reason. The episode after this suitably showed the two living at the Thorndyke mansion with the rest of the gang and helping out around the house. A small character arc involved Bocoe and Decoe getting sick of Eggman's evil activities and doing a Heel≯ace Turn, aligning themselves with Sonic and his friends.This plot line doesn't go anywhere and we never learn how he ended up on Sonic's world. At the start of the Sonic Adventure 2 arc, Eggman realizes that he must have been born on Earth after finding government records of his grandfather.It even gets even better when you figured out that the 3DCG animations was produced by TMS' subsidiary studio, ufotable. The Egg Carrier was also rendered in CGI in most of its appearances, but it was toon-shaded to closer resemble the traditional animation. 2D Visuals, 3D Effects: The X-Cyclone would often appear as a highly-detailed and rather realistically shaded CGI model for shots that didn't have the characters in the cockpits or standing on its hull visible, and several times with traditionally-animated vehicles in the same scene.Gotta go trope! Gotta go trope! Gotta go trope, trope, trope, trope, trope!!
