You need to make more videos like this, also what do you want in sonic movie 4

I recommend many fans to watch sonic x with the japanese audio and subtitles. There's so much who was missed thanks to the localization and in general to search about sonic in it's original form (japanese) Japan has a different culture than the west and that includes romance and how Amy was created. Hoshino (one of Amy's creators) never created her to be "obsessed" with sonic. She was created to be a girl with qualities such as being spunky, energetic, full of love abd life, desire of adventure haste boredom, all this qualities Sonic has so they can match. That's why Amy doesn't have a title or is princesss so she can be alongside sonic and co for adventures. Loce how sonic and Amy are so simmilar yer different (Amy believes your destiny already exist (ex, real soulmates), sonic believe you have to create your own destiny. Or like the fangirl one, also never planed to be that, it was a terrible consequence of localization A fangirl is someone who admires someone in a big level, a person who doesn't have a friendship with the other one, almost like a parasocial relationship, that's nor what Amy is. Since adventure amy and sonic are friends, the japanese version sonic is so soft with her in which never showed her to be annoyed by her but showed to truly want to help her on the contrary with USA who made him an asshole(???) I think so many fans specially sonamy fans are missing so much juice from this ship. Sonic cares for her, he has a crush with her. He id more an action guy than a word guy.

Gotta say as a SONAMY FAN I completly disagree with each one of your points Sonic Boom is a parody of the characters they are not more mature than the game cast in fact they ARE THE opposite in favor of humor, Amy's characterization changing the most and no is not more mature in fact the show made jokes like how she has a real height Sonic doll who knows what for, and how she doesnt treat her friends very well once she is in charge there is whole episode about that Game sonamy dynamic works because Sonic is more a force of nature who does not want or need to stop, he is always on the move Naoto Ohshima made Amy to make up for that, a girlfriend for Sonic, Sonic not having to stop because there is someone who is already Following him wherever he goes THAT DOES NOT MEAN sonic cannot open to her since episode 52 of Sonic X shows exactly that, how Sonic decides to go his way to visit Amy and reveal his feelings to her after a long Adventure where nobody knows what happened to sonic after he dissapeared ua-cam.com/video/U3ZUCCcrs5c/v-deo.htmlsi=TV88AhypuixZeJzv Shadow as character is actually designed to not open his heart, only key moments of his own character arc, character arc where Amy is only a plot device and NOT key character on his own journey

I think this is a good space and i try to understand the appeal of shadamy as a sonamy fan. I would love to read differents POVS I think what i don't understand is the FANON POV, i feel many fans care so much that shadow has someone that only gives him love, someone that fits him, his lifestyle his philosophy but I feel many fans forget about Amy in some kind of way. Amy in almost all shadamy spaces has to adapt to shadow, treat Amy as soon to be shadow psychologist thanks to her kind nature, write her as a "I can fix him" girl and I feel fans only see a "bad boy x good girl". I think so many forget shadow is an unstable guy with so much trauma to heal, a guy not to open with feelings, who doesn't understand it less romance. He has like almost the same flaws as sonic but in a more traumatic level. If sonic already has a lot trouble to understand romantic feelings shadow is worst 😂 he won't be that "uwu bad boy that's actually a good guy but has so much trauma the girl has to fix his problems" at this moment , I can't see how shadow can treat her better, it needs more than ticket concerts 😅 But I can see a beautiful friendship towards shadow and Amy. Shadow can see Amy is sincere with herself and she truly cares for her friends and he appreciates it. Maybe 'cause i headcanon shadow as asexual 'cause I feel he hasn't showed romantic interest in no one. my nad if this ended being a long thread :D

I think majority of fandom truly missed the point of boom. Sonic boom is a parody of the franchise and in general topics. The characters act the other way around to the real versions (Game version) That's what boom!Amy is so different from og Amy. And seeing how fandom and many sonamy fans thinks she is better than og Amy for dumb reasons (not being "obsessed" [girl has a gigant Sonic plushie but yeah not obsessed 'cause jOKes but fandom couldn't handle the physical comedy of Sonic x] made fans believe she is the "boys mom" of the group when she is the one who starts chaos in canon alongside boys. Like that girls has so much energy Sonic feels overwhelmed by her, she loves adventure, has so much hobbies like tarot, baking, kickboxing, gardening all this showed in the games and Sonic x, she is not obsessed with Sonic she has life outside him I swear, i don't mind boom, i I'm worried about misinformation

I sometimes feel left out by the same sonamy community (specially the west one) 'cause I don't agree with many general opinions about Amy (long thread sorry not sorry ) As a non English speaker, I feel so many from English sides tend to always put in a pedestal the american version of everything from Sonic (the localization, the one who truly affected Amy's character) and say "Amy was always an obsessive girl" or that she was always a fangirl (not true) and no. Amy never was created to be obsessed with Sonic, that was a consequence of the terrible localization for the western public And it truly makes me sad how SO MANY FANS Even sonamy fans celebrate how Amy is now "more mature"(noticed how fans always want the girl to be mature and the boys never get this😬) But as a general question... why you want Amy be the mature one? So she can be the "group mom"? :/ Since the beggining Amy was created to be a silly, spunky, energetic girl (like, that's what she was called Rosy the rascal)

I don’t know the canon age of classic Sonic but the canon age of classic Amy is 8, modern Amy is 12 and modern Sonic is 15, taking that logic back classic Sonic should be 11 give or take

Sorry chat I feel many sonamy fans don’t truly like sonamy but more shadamy :’( nothing wrong with that bit it hurt seeing how many say shadamy fits more with Amy and I feel that show many don't understand the core aspects of sonamy

Sorry, I don’t agree with the shadamy part. I think majority of fandom misunderstoods shadow as this “uwu sweet bean that needs to be protected” and forget he is still learning from his past and his own person and he is not that sweet boy, he is like the second least open character next tonsonic who many times end being an asshole conscious or unconscious (thanks to him Sonic forces fiasco happens) On the other side, I think many western fans misunderstood so much Amy and sonamy (including this video sorry imo 😢)

37:27 ok I agree with everything you said about sonic in this video but in Sonics defense Amy was starting to push it with the jealousy aspect a bit but that’s just what I think

This was a fun video, but as a person who’s read IDW, I personally believe Sonic is still a great fit for Amy. First of all (no offense to any Shadamy shippers) Shadow would overwhelm Amy and she’d have to use so much of her energy to keep him happy. Shadow would benefit from it, but Amy might be emotionally drained with Shadow. She needs someone who’s on the same wavelength as her so she can emotionally function properly. Someone who can share the same brain cells. Not saying this works for everyone of course but for Amy, to me, Sonic is the best choice. Second, in IDW you can tell the pink and blue hedgehog don’t always have to fully express themselves out loud to know how each other is feeling. Amy can read Sonic like a book and I don’t think she minds him being shy. In my opinion, they wouldn’t need Sonic to have a love confession or anything because Amy will accept him regardless. I'd think their relationship would just…happen. The apple of Sonamy is their subtly after all.

This modern era of the Sonic franchise seems to convey 2 things: 1. Less is more. Clearly, SonAmy fans (and even non-shippers in the fandom) are loving the more passive, slow-burn portrayal of the ship we’ve been getting recently. It ironically makes the notion of their romance more thrilling than when Amy was so direct with her feelings toward Sonic in the past lol. 2. A girl can only be forward for so long before the guy needs to man tf up and take initiative. And on that note, I can agree with you that SonAmy may not properly work until Sonic emotionally matures. But to be fair, they *are* still pretty young lol, and girls tend to mature faster than boys at that age anyway. Overall, I think the writers should keep going in this direction for these two; keep building up their subtle, slow-burn moments in games/shows until hopefully, at some point in the future, it feels like they're wholeheartedly ready to commit to each other. Not sure what approach they'll take with the movies though; ideally a similar one, especially if the rumor that even the movies are "growing with the audience" is true.

6:22 Thank you! It is such a breath of fresh air to watch a video essay where someone understands what Amy is talking about in this scene. Just about every other video essay I've seen that brings up this scene either disregards it as the game being overdramatic or says that it makes no sense. I always thought what she said was pretty self-explanatory, but apparently not.

With Capcom I have no hopes they have it be only platonic for reasons I don't understand but Sega has loosen up a little bit they may surprise us but I don't undestand why companies would go to such extents not to have canon couples just look at spiderman . 😬

HaHa! SO toughtfull of her. Amy is king and toughtful, thanks for purting it into words. One notices these things bus is unable to say them.

7:24 TBH I read that line from Sonic as “I support you and even if we can’t be together the entire time, when you feel you’re done with sharing that love I want to meet up and hear your stories”

I like sonic boom the show not the video game that sucked and it’s too bad it never got a season 3 🫤

Does anyone remember that one Sonic Boom table read from 2014 and there's a moment where Sonic thinks Amy is going on a date with someone and starts panicking?😭

In the context of the episode in Sonic Boom where Sonic tries to impress the purple girl, basically the episode is the three of them giving their perspectives on what happened, this is Sonic's perspective. Amy's is that the girl is basically a whore, pretending to be hurt to attract the attention of boys who, in Amy's perspective, act completely stupid towards her. As for Knuckles, he paints himself as super strong and cool while Sonic is a complete idiot and Amy is into him. In the end it is revealed that none of these perspectives are real and it is all just a fantasy that the three invented in their heads based on the initial impressions they had of the girl, She's the one who explains what really happened to Tails and even flirts with him (which is a little weird because in this show he already has a girlfriend I think?)So, Sonic is kind of acting weird because everyone else is acting weird the whole episode, with Sticks being the only character the whole episode only appearing for a second in every story saying some different nonsense and then running away screaming.

I can see why he talks about the twins and stuff, and it can honestly be a cover to not let others know he likes Amy, yk? Like, trying to refute that type of claim, he talks about other girls. SonAmy for life tho.

16:00 Amy: Clearly she fell off her bike and hurt her arm. Then you said that Sonic is gaslighting Amy when he said don’t be jealous. Ok listen lady if you pay attention to Amy’s body language, face gesture and tone when she said that line, it kinda gives it away that she looked or sounded jealous. Believe me, my parents have been after me about my body language and it’s so irritating. But that’s how life is and we got to be careful on how we say it. In other words, Sonic can read Amy like an open book.

I really hope they make sonic and amy actually in a relationship in the future games, how do u think amy and sonic will be like in sonic movie 4?

💗

There is something about being obsessed with toxic ships that we like just because we want one of the characters to be happy

Girl, I would invite to a pijama party, drink something or a spa day, just so we can talk about how Amy and Shadow relationship

They are so cute💕❤ also in comic there is a lot of their comic which so sweet 😆☺️💞💙💓 Sonamy is one of the best ships 💗💖💝

Yeah I agree You Get gril Finally talk about thank you I love their moments especially in sonic boom I love them so much I feel the same especially because he is shy and afraid show his emotions to her and he was sometimes mean to her in game or in sonic x of later it 's change which so sweet but the fact they still not official couple is so annoying even so I love the ships so much 🥰😊😖 I still kinda see she deserves better I really wish see them couple and more moments and more character development in future ❤💗💕💞

Shadamy deep dive 👀

On of the reasons I love Sonamy (specifically Boom!Sonamy) is because they remind me SO much of Amy Santiago and Jake Peralta from Brooklyn nine-nine. They’re so precious.

Don’t lie to me shadow is Sonic’s gf in Sonic Prime

17:51 We gotta remember this is how sonic saw the situation when they met Percy. Meaning he viewed them that way.

THIS IS WMAZING TYYYY

Should do some sonic reaction the content would blow up I think Watching sonic boom, SonicX and same for sonic prime

Yess i saw it when it came out on 20th and then I saw it a week later on 27th, so good 😭 can't wait to see this review This is like the first time that a movie made me go back again, instead of waiting for it to be on streaming services

0:19 yes! Ive said this for years, it was my favorite representation of sonamy and Amy (honestly i feel like its what set off alot of the new change years later), her personality was able to shine more too. 27:25 girlie youre so right but dont feed my delusions 😭

✋🤚 Facts I see Shadow and Amy having a Big Bro-Lil Sis while with Shadow and Sonic I see them at Rivals-Frienemies but who massively respect each other and Shadow being the Protective Father or Big Bro to Amy and will be happy if she gets with someone…and her best one is Sonic and Shadow will probably even agree

Bitch literally stood there listing sonamy shit

GIRL! Have you seen that the JP VA's of Sonic and Amy sang a song together about confessing their feelings??? IT'S SO CUTE!!!!!

25:20 This is what I tell myself everytime I see Sonic and Amy interacting in such a new way. But for real though, this video is absolutely everything that I think about when I go to sleep or daydreaming. I swear, I sometimes just get riled up whenever I think about these two fictional hedgehogs. Since knowing her character, Amy has been my number one favorite character. I love her SA2 personality because she is just A GIRL 💕💕 I used to have a bit of a difficult time getting in touch with my "feminine" side when I was a kid and still kinda do, but I've always been a romantic. So just seeing Amy not being afraid to express her most vulnerable emotions such as declaring her love to her friends and Sonic is so awesome. There's this one episode in Sonic Boom where Sticks even names the village to honor Amy ( I think Hedgehog Village) and before Sticks even told the gang why she named it "Hedgehog Village", Sonic immediately thinks its about him. Like BRO 😭 That's why I loved when you called out Sonic because it is SO TRUE. Amy deserves someone who will value her and respect her. She is such a good character who has her flaws but will always do what she believes is right out of love. She doesn't have to lose her feminine or romantic side to be a badass character. Boom (Show) and Frontiers Amy is definitely my favorite because she is mature, silly, sweet, lovable, and independent but I still love her in the older games because she is just so adorable <3. Sonic and Amy's dynamic overall makes me so excited for what's to come in the next sonic movies if they even decide to do something. I know Sonic doesn't know how to express his romantic side to Amy, who has usually taken upon herself to make the first move, but maybe Sonic will end up falling first in the next movie at the end?? That's my wishful thinking ToT. I enjoyed Prime Sonic because he really showed how his feelings don't change toward his friends. Even in different universes, he always sees the best in almost everyone and I can see how Amy would think and do the same as him. And I think in that way, Amy and Sonic compliment each other because Amy wants to share love and Sonic wants help even when having the "chill, cool guy" persona. In the end, friendship and purpose is important to both characters. And lastly, I personally didn't think that Shadow and Amy would have made much sense but a few months ago, after of giving it some thought, I was like "maybe Shadamy isnt so bad " 🤭 I like to imagine that Shadow has a sweet spot for people that are sincere and genuine like Amy and Cream. I loved hearing how Shadow would prevent Cream from feeling sad in that last STT. I just know that he knows that those are the kind of people Maria asked him to protect. Shadow and Amy are awesome as friends but they'd be super cute together as well! I'm a SonAmy fan, but scrolling through Pinterest and ShadAmy fanfiction is destroying me 😫💕

I get the feeling they're adapting themes from Sonic CD next. Metal Sonic represents a bad future. Amy and those metal Sonic clones might be from the future. If so, that could mean something bad happened to the future Sonic. I'm thinking Future Trunks coming back from his dystopian future to find the past Goku who is still alive. This is just a guess of course. I think they like to do references to other franchises like Dragon Ball Z so it's likely that could be what they're doing. Also it reminds me of Terminator and that guy from the future going to the past to find Sarah Connor. Maybe Amy was the last surviving hero of her future.

I can't speak for all guys but I think men feel fear. They feel fear of breaking the illusion. Sonic is just afraid that once he opens up to Amy, the way she sees him will change.

FYI your hair looks so cute in this video! It had to said 💁🏼‍♀️

Honestly there are just so many things wrong here, but basically you’re both a fake Amy fan and sonamy fan because you don’t get the character or their dynamic at all! Like are you serious using sonic boom that is completely disconnected to the main versions and some stupid sitcom and saying it’s the best version! Amy is a completely different character and Sonic is a parody of himself same with the twitter takeovers. The worst part is that you claim Amy only character trait was liking Sonic before boom which is not only wrong it’s disrespectful. You are clearly just one of thoses people who love the idea 💡 of sonamy but not the actual characters or their relationship. Sonic doesn’t need to grow up neither do Amy . And news flash every Amy fan under sun hates boom Amy because she just a generic nagging mom of the group with annoying feminist tendencies, not the bubbly go getter high energy friendly girl we love. Things like sonic x and unleashed actually showed Sonic and Amy relationship well with Sonic even admitting his love in Sonic x. And frontiers was so lame for Amy she lacks any energy she so generic, tails and knuckles don’t feel like this but she does. Basically this was a terrible deep dive because it doesn’t dive deep into their relationship at all! You didn’t go over their history or conception or even anything before boom. Not to mention newsflash sonamy in boom was a joke literally in qna with people behind the show admitting it. You literally chose all the worst things to show sonamy, no sonic x no Sonic idw no unleashed or even 2006. This was just a disappointment.

To me I think there is another reason why he doesn't admit his feelings is because he doesn't want her to be the main target for all the enemies he has because he knows how strong she is but doesn't want her to be in great danger without him knowing

Fun fact: Sega Channel and a book from Sonic Team confirmed that he is, in fact, interested in her. He's just shy around her. Like, he does have feelings for her, but for the life of him, he can't admit it. 🤭💙🩷

This was a great essay! I am also very happy to find more female creators that can match our level of freak lol Here's my hot take: personally I prefer the Japanese dub in Amy's case (since it's the only other dub that can be considered official alongside the English one). I find her more believable as a 12-13 year old and there's a certain cuteness and sweetness to her delivery that makes the character come off as much more likable to me, even with the same dialogues. I also hope movie Amy is able to keep her own unique quirkiness and her feelings for Sonic as opposed to being turned into a more "mature" version of herself. I feel like it would be too easy for her to end up turning into another version of the same cookie cutter animated female leads we've seen so often in the last decade (see Rapunzel, Anna, Moana, Asha, movie Princess Peach, etc.). Mildly quirky, badass fighter, longs for adventure, radiates positiveness, believes in the power of love...she already shares those traits, but she stands out because she's also quick-tempered, she acts before thinking, is very open about her feelings (be it sadness, anger, happiness, embarrassment...), is stubborn, etc. When portrayed fairly, those traits are actually great qualities. And when they're flaws, if portrayed correctly, they actually make her more relatable. But I have hope in the writing team since in movie 3 I noticed especially with Knuckles they did a fantastic job by giving him moments where his flaws were portrayed as positive traits.

You nailed it so well. It's so tricky because as you've said, I don't see Sonic maturing or even giving Amy what she needs in a relationship. She deserves better and I wouldn't blame her if she moved on, even if it would break my shipper's heart. I also really enjoy Shadamy mostly because a healed Shadow looks quite compatible with a matured Amy. Ultimately, Amy deserves to receive as much love and dedication as she gives to everyone. Shipping is so much fun ❤

"Men piss me off" I mean, as far as guys go, this is ULTRA best bro behavior

I agree with the Shadow and Amy. Amy just seems like she would make him happy and if but I don't ship them like lovers I hope they become bestiesss and amy doesn't seem him as a villain. Also Amy and Shadow being very close might spark some jealousy from Sonic and could get us more scenes where Sonic hints at having a crush on Amy.

On another note, I think (?) she has the headband? I see something vaguely on her head, but no joke, I made a tweet about wanting Maddie or even Sonic to gift her the iconic headband in the film, so hoping I’m wrong and she doesn’t have it lol
