Ya
I think it should
It should
No. Simply no
I think it’s ok I guess…?
i find it so funny to hear sonic characters curse, something about a blue hedgehog cursing just makes me laugh
Yup seeing all my favourite characters swearing in the JP subs of my childhood animes (Sonic X, Yu-Gi-oh!, Pokémon, etc) never ceases to make me chuckle.
I actually got a nose exhale when Silver hit me with a _"Oh, crap!"_
@@jamiegioca9448 Same. I wasn't expecting Silver of all characters to yell crap, but here we are.
I mean it makes sense Sonic is a teenager
Same
7:55 Honorable Mention: In Sonic Movie 1, Sonic was initially meant to say: "We are a couple of badasses, just living by our own rules." But in the final, Sonic says: "We are a couple of loose cannons, just living by our own rules."
Don't forget about when Tom says; "I'm the donut lord you son of a b-"🤣
Piece of shiitake planet!
-Robotnik
Also Robotnik said “Who the hell do you think you are?”
@@depthstrider68 Thar's what I thought
@🍁 Autumn Leaves 🍁 praise the holy sherbert
the sacred holy holiness of the sherbert
In the Japanese version Sonic Forces, Sonic also calls Infinite a "Masked Prick" which is the funniest fucking thing I've ever heard.
Well if this is true, this is the most obvious one😂
LMFAO WHAT
Sonic: Masked Prick? When did i say that?
Infinite: On your japanese version dumb dumb!
Masked Prick is actually crazy 💀
Shadow the Hedgehog is an example of how *not* to implement natural swearing. The characters will say "damn" and only "damn" in every sentence and it's so obviously forced lmao.
That is in the english dub
@@themissingbits6375 that's the dub I was referring to
@@themissingbits6375 lmao what a weird thing to say
@@alwaysabiggafish3305 Im not english
Damn isn’t even that bad of a curse word anymore
I remember the days when I thought "stupid" and "shut up" were considered profanity to me. What an interesting time. For the series while I think we can all agree it's a little weird to even hear a "damn" out of these guys, "where's that DAMN fourth Chaos Emerald" is an excellently delivered line.
Ikr
*where's that damn FOURTH Caos Emerald?
@@yall_girl_eve actually YOU spelled it wrong.
I like how the subtitles say “damn FOURTH” even though Shadow clearly said “DAMN fourth”.
You can see it at 1:17
Given enough time, I wouldn’t be surprised if twitter police began seeing “Stupid” and “Shut up” as profanity.
I swear what's considered profanity is so ludicrously subjective, for example I always thought "heck" wasn't considered as foul language but seeing multiple folks react to Cream saying "what the heck!?" in the IDW comics, in a state of sheer shock kinda surprised me tbh.
It was weird that people cared so much about that
Heck is the censored version of hell so I don't get that either.
Isn't Cream like 3 to 5 years old
I guess it's only surprising because Cream was the character that said it, someone who's known for being innocent and never using any profanity or profanity substitutes. If someone like Shadow or Knuckles said it, people wouldn't care.
@@VTRcomics would u consider Naruto family friendly and yes this counts for both uncut dub and the English subtitles
I never understood why "damn" is a considered a swear word, for me it's always been a way to censor "fuck" and it's variations, like "shoot" for "shit" and "heck" for "hell"
Well, "darn" is the censor for "damn" really, but yeah I 100% get what you mean, I've literally *never* seen "damn" as a swear word in my entire life while I always have seen "shit" and "fuck" as swear words
@@Alex-ABPerson Oh yeah i forgot about darn, i never ever saw it as anything swear releated until recently so i tend to forget
"Freaking" and "frick" is used to censor "fucking" and "fuck"
@@flyingstapler1241 And I remember as a little kid _that_ was a swear by our standards so "flipping" and "flip" became a censor for _that_
Heiney/Fanny/Booty/Butt/Rear for the A-word.
Another kinda instance I could think of was a line that was removed from Sonic Forces. The original script is available for viewing online and in the original, Silver says “B.S.” instead of “lies” in his meeting Infinite scene.
Should’ve kept that, that would’ve been badass LOL
Zamn
Silver: Does anyone but you believe in your bullshit.
Oh hello tails😂
"Does anyone but you believe your BULLSHIT?"
Fun fact: Junichi Kanemaru didn't even know he was swearing in Sonic X. He just thought he was saying the English word for "kuso". By the time he learned the truth, it was too late.
Proof ?
@@PipimiOden sauce ?
@@markofthewolvessucks8930 i sent the link to it in the comments but that's been filtered out by youtube
@@PipimiOden Darn
Wait, isn't "shit" the equivalent of "kuso"?
It usually is translated to "merde" (shit) or "putain" ( kind of "damn' but litteraly means "whore") in french, so I assumed it was the same in english.
It's not a curse or swear exactly, but I was a little surprised Vector gets away with calling Rouge a broad in Sonic Heroes. Like I said, not really a swear, but most consider the term derogatory, so it's still crazy to me that they got away with it
"Who's that bat-broad over there?"
Vector became my hero with that line.
It's so out of place too lol
"female of questionable morality"
My older brother said the exact same thing when this scene played while he was watching me play the game 😆 I didn't think much of it but he was like naw he pretty was calling her a hoe lol. It's especially apparent now given the way Vector says it and the way he motions 😆
"oh my God" is also exclaimed by Amy a few times in Heroes
5:58 I always thought Sonic was doing his iconic finger wag, and the animators just didn't feel like fully drawing the individual fingers and flipped his hand to get around this.
Fun fact: In Shadow the Hedgehog’s opening cutscene, Shadow was originally supposed to say, “Just what the hell was that all about” but it was changed to “Just what was that all about.”
I was really surprised to hear things like "bollocks" and "Bastard" in Crash 4, despite its E10+ rating!
The narrator even says "Kickass" at one point, I really hope this means the ESRB is playing it way more loose with the profanity ratings cause I really wanna hear Sonic curse for whatever reason 😭
YOOO Al the Boi's here!
The entirety of Cash Banooca 4 was very nearly PEGI 16 material.
@@stanb1455 Dude speaking of, FF7 Remake was also PEGI 16 and I was hearing Shit and Bitch every other sentence, that was wild
There's a scene in the Sonic Boom show where Sonic is ranting and fully expected Roger to just swearing.
It would have been awesome
sonic should be the one cursing more than any other character except knuckles
All of the swearing really makes sense in the context of most Sonic characters (especially the anthropomorphic ones) are all teenagers. And teenagers are most notable for swearing like a sailor with their friends and such
they’re also always in the middle of battle, about to get their heads blown up at any point. Gotta let some things slide when your life is on the line
@@snowbird1381 yeah, you can't be cracking jokes all the time when you're being hunted down by a scientist 5 times smarter than you

And now we got Sonic Frontiers' Vandalize with its "F*ck the pain away" and "Are you fucking crazy" lyrics
Those are the original lyrics not the lyrics being used for the game

Hearing Sonic say "it might open a portal to Hell" will forever hold a special spot in my memory.
And at that moment... Doomguy just smiled.
Don't forget that Tom was about to say "Son of a bitch" in the first movie but got interrupted by Robotnik elbowing him. And in the second movie, Rachel called the commander an "A-hole"
Since when did Rachel said A**hole? I don't remember that in the 2nd movie. I never heard it.
@@kamicab715 it was after when it was revealed that her wedding with Randal was just a set up. She referred to the commander as "A-hole" when demanding what was happening
@@epicmaj8r oh ok I'll look for that video and listen
There was also a deleted scene in the first movie where Rachael calls Toms cop buddy (forgot his name) after she finds her car totaled and demands to call Tom where she says my ass.
That's South Park Levels of Vulgarity,
To add on the video game examples of swearing in JP, in Lost World, Zazz says "Go to Hell" to Sonic and Eggman while the EN version had him say "Too bad for you".
Ikr
In addition, in the JP version of forces, Sonic calls Infinite a masked prick
In EN version, he just says "you got to tell me the secret of your power, I insist"
@@obeyabe8613 Did he outright say "masked prick" in English in the JP version?
@@spongebobfan78 nah he said it in Japanese, but that still shocked me 💀💀
Swearing is not in Japan.
personally swearing in sonic doesn't affect me that much but I could see it affecting kids. Maybe they could include some sort of censorship system for songs and dialogue that you can turn on in the settings of their future games, I don't feel like swearing is necessary though, I do think Sonic could work without it but at the end of the day it's up to SEGA.
1:40
Sonic: "Don't let the black creatures get away!"
Whatchu' mean by that man?
Honestly I think it makes sense that Sonic characters curse because they're teenagers, and when I was a teenager pretty much everyone I knew sweared, so it wasn't a shock. However as a kid, my parents/family knew I loved Sonic but were protective of me from viewing adult content and that included swears, so when I heard Sonic/friends swearing I had to make sure I'm alone or kept the volume down, thankfully I wasn't caught as kid. Now as an adult knowing a bunch of Sonic character cursing is just really funny to me for some reason.
When I heard Junichi's Sonic actually say the Engrish word, "Shit!", in the JPN version of Sonic X, I was shocked and almost laughed the first time I heard he says that! That scene kept replaying in my head for years.
Pretty sure Eggman swears too when Sonic breaks out of his ambush.
5:18 what's a bit funny is that the Zeti are supposed to be demons...But they barely look the part. so him threatening to send you to hell would be something he'd at least say to anyone
for 6:19 a common east coast taunt is to thrust your fist or finger in the air to say "up yours!" thats always what I thought he was doing.
Probably my favorite instance of swearing in the Sonic series is from Sonic X in the Japanese dub where Sonic says Shit in English (full line was Shit 行くぞう which means "Shit we gotta go!") and it just feels like it came out of nowhere and it made me laugh so hard when I heard it the first time. The line was replaced in the English dub with "Cream, Hang on". I'm so glad you mentioned this in the video since it was my favorite one
Every time I hear it it is just funny 🤣🤣🤣
Yes that’s also my favourite
And in season 3, Sonic even said "Damn" in one of the alien planets.
This was because the character that means shit in Japan, kuso, is much less profane, comparable to crap, but it still directly translates to shit.
And that’s why people like the Japanese version more.
The Japanese version of Shadow the hedgehog doesn't swear NEAARLY as much surprisingly enough. The bulk of the swearing is from the MASSIVLY butchered English localization of the game. Idk who made the decision on that team to do that but it made a genuinely good (if not partly confusin) story into an OVERLY edgy swear-fest where almost NOTHIN MAKES SENSE. Now ppl have a skewed opinion on the games story cus they barely know and def DON'T UNDERSTAND THE ACTUAL STORY. I'll admit tho, I'll always unironically love "Where's that damn fourth chaos emerald" lol
I gotta see a modernized localization now
@@Sing_LoveWRS Def. But THERE ARE cutscenes released on UA-cam and If u have the ability u can mod the game for the Japanese version with direct subs. It'd be cool if the game got remade but I have feelin if they did they'd be pressured into changin things unnecessarily and we'd get a COMPLETELY diff product than the OG intention. But if the game jus had better localization for a rerelease that'd be awesome
@@nightlydata2181 based
OH yeah, People who say shadows character was destroyed in this game are clueless about the actually game. Those edgy lines come from playing the bad routes. The good ones he acts like he did after SA2
@@jurassicarkjordanisgreat1778 THAT'S NOT WHAT I MEAN THOSE AREN'T HIM EITHER
4:54 This made me laugh so hard for some reason.🤣😂 I’m assuming he said: “the f***?”
You know I was just thinking to myself, "Where's that damn NEW Chaomix video?" and here it is.
"Where's that damn FOURTH Chaos Emerald?" Still cracks me up when playing Shadow the Hedgehog.
"Damn" and "Crap". True swearwords indeed. For real, I'm surprised the guy called them "swear words" instead of "inappropriate language" lol
What about the word "Sexy" from the lyrics in Wild Canyon?
@@madden8021 yeah, there's that. I'm just kinda annoyed over him over him mentioning every damn "damn" in the damn frenchise
"Damn" is a swear word.
@@fishactivation5087 OK thx 4 stealing an article from Wikipedia, you must feel so damn smart right now, don't you? P.S Damn is not an explicit swearword.
@@aiiscool6118 Might I ask, what is your religion and nationality?
8:25 I would like to put out a mistake, holy crap is not a curse word.
Another honorable mention is Shadow's 2P intro line in the Japanese audio track of SA2. That one did draw concern from my mom until she realized the characters weren't speaking English.
To be honest, “damn” isn’t that bad of a swear, hell, it’s not even considered a swear word over here in the uk
Funny thing is hell can link to the bible and sometimes means it does not count as a bad word. Pokemon started censoring names if they had bad words in them but to date Hellfire works as a name as they let that pass because of the bible. So hell is allover the place on if it counts or not over here.
@@cartergamegeek The word hell isn't actually in the Bible
@@cartergamegeek true the word hell in its self is no swear word when it;s used it the context of hate or rage then it's a curse word
Even though that's not literally the case, I like to think Shadow the Hedgehog was the reason we have an E10+ rating in modern gaming.
It's funnier to me that the ESRB wouldn't dare let a 7 year old play Donkey Kong Jungle Beat and made a new rating for it
7:27 Wait crap is a bad word!?...WHAT! I did not know that.
It used to be
2:33 well he could be saying darn it
Something else to mention here is that the characters would often say "kuso" in Sonic X, including Tails at one point, a term that translates in English differently depending on context. It's mostly translated in the subtitles to "damn", though.
If anyone's wondering, Tails says "damn" near the end of season 2 when he's fighting Eggman back on Sonic's World shortly before Sonic arrives home late. It was kind of cathartic to see the best boi swear, not gonna lie.
Another honorable mention would be when Tom says "I'M THE DONUT LORD YOU SON OF A-" in the movie
6:09 Nah, Sonic ain’t flicking the bird.
I thought at first, too, but if you look closely, that little ‘lump’ next to the pointed finger is his thumb.
There would be another lump signifying an index finger, AND THEN his thumb if it were his middle finger. (I love to draw and constantly look at anatomy… had to use my own hand for reference to check this one lmao)
Ok I saw it
I think he's POINTING AT Metal Robotnik
I honestly wanna see something like Shadow the Hedgehog again: Dark and mature. I wanna see the dark side of the Sonic universe.
The mild swear words, to me, are damn, hell, crap, and maybe bastard.
I also wanna see the Director's Cut of Shadow.
Yup
Damn. I never knew “damn” was swearing
Same
Damn, same
It’s definitely a swear in my experience
I knew some folks consider "damn" swearing but I was surprised that "heck", "crap" and even "shut up" were also considered profanity in certain cultures and social circles.
Yeah... as a kid I had really protective parents so they consider these swears. It never bothered me but I had to make sure no one heard these words. Now as an adult I just find it funny.
"Sonic from the first movie: We (Tom and Sonic) are just a couple of loose cannons, living by our own rules."
According to Pat Casey, one of the writers, he said that originally the line was "We're total badasses", but they were informed that you can't say the word "Badass" in a PG movie. Someone would then tweet at him, saying that Paul Blart Mall Cop is PG, yet they said the word (That tweet was deleted, but shown thanks to Palette's youtube video about The Sonic Movie Iceberg). Casey would then respond with "WHAT".
Also, a storyboard of the first film has a moment where Ronotnik drops the f bomb on Sonic. The storyboard artist did it as a joke, and it obviously wasn't proposed.
I'm sure there are more curse words throughout the franchise, but thought I'd share a couple I remembered.
5:09
Some unused gems of voice clips within Sonic Boom.
6:36
Fun Fact: This resulted the Japanese dub in that episode getting removed on Netflix if you go to a kids account
I know that you already mentioned Japanese Sonic dropping some swear words in English, but in the Japanese versions of other Sonic games, there are minor swear words, even said by characters other than Sonic. Also, believe it or not, the Japanese version of Shadow the Hedgehog has less swearing than the English version. Sure, it still has it, but it's less frequent.
I didn’t even know people considered damn or hell as “swears” or whatever.
some people consider "shut up" as a swear
@@KilosFoxo that's kinda weird
Maybe "hell" is considered depending on the context. But yeah, "damn" literally have no effect in me lol
@@elmemearana It took me two years after hearing everyone say it before realizing that it’s considered a bad word
@@bluecherries5901 the "hell" word?
In some copies of Sonic Rush Adventure, Marine the Raccoon says "bugger", which more or less means "fuck". This is why some European copies are rated 12+ and others are 3+.
Some people have also claimed Rush and/or Rush Adventure's soundtracks contain profanity, but I can't tell because the songs tend to be about as indecipherable as the Kingsmen's cover of Louie Louie. The sound compression really doesn't help with that.
2:38 I’m sure sonic is saying shoot Just to let you know.
3:40
Tails: uh... knuckles? You ok?
Sonic: I think he played too Much GTA
I played this in 1.5 speed
Also you forgot one, in the Sonic Movie 1 Tom says this line to Eggman during the final battle: "I'm Donut Lord, your son of-"
Don't forget the joke about shitake
@@Ultimatedogfan oh yeah LOL
I always laugh at parents who are always concerned about "adult content" being viewed by their children. They are gonna find this stuff eventually
There's a reason for that. Children's minds are still forming and there's some things that should not be in their minds yet. I saw something on TV when I was ten that affected me into my thirties. Children are still having their foundational development, there are certain things that they cannot process properly yet.
@@TazHall yeah but that is why we have parental blockers and tv ratings so parents know "Hey this Show/cartoon/anime/video game is probably not safe or too scary for your 7 year olds fragile mind". Don't show kids things they are not ready to see and hold them accountable for their own actions. Also let there be adult-oriented animation. The world doesn't revolve around your kid(s).
@@TazHall it is amazing how we have an entire web of information to look this all up yet many parents still don't use them
fr i mean seriously UA-cam has it all. it doesn't matter if they try to sway them away from it it will eventually meet their eyes and they'll know the truth
I honestly never thought about the fact that 4kids did the Shadow voice work. Just ironic coming from 4kids

8:55 early childhood isn't even used anymore lol. (I only know this because of AntDude because I am Australian and we use ACB)
"Sexy" is considered a swear by some, and is found in Sonic Adventure 2 in one of Knuckle's songs
"Rouge? Yeah, she's sexy and smooth."
That's word is also in one song from the 2014 movie, The Book Of Life.
All swears are risqué words, but not all risqué words are swears
There is a line in sonic movie 2 where eggman says "piece of shitake!"

Crap used to be considered swearing but not anymore. A cartoon on Cartoon Network, Adventure Time used it all the time uncensored.

So much for a more family friendly franchise huh? SEGA will always stick to the more "serious" things in games whenever they can imo.
11:09 it already did in Europe this game is pegi 12 which is the European equivalent of Teen rated and also Sonic Rush Adventure and Sonic 06 are also pegi 12
In the japanese Sonic Frontiers, while the music Vandalize plays, there's a part where they say: "Fuck the pain away"
6:36 I heard Jun'ichi adlibbed that bit in Sonic X, as if he wasn't already the GOAT, that only further cements his legendary status as THE voice of Sonic. He truly is the best there is, the best there was and the best there ever be.

This probably doesn’t count but there’s also Rouge asking if Topaz if she was into S&M *too.* in the Japanese version of Sonic X. not only saying that at all, but also implying Rouge herself is into that stuff.
4:19 welp I heard that before,and it was hilarious.
I haven't read the comics, but I remember reading there's a scene where it seems like one of the characters is about to call Rouge a b1tch (only manages to say "b-"), and she punches said character in the stomach before saying something like "bat, that's right".

4:05 HIS WORLLDDDDD
"Wheres that damn 4th chaos emerald" is one of the lines ever
one of my favourite sonic songs of all time, 4:10. I've always wondered how that word slipped by..
Tangentially related, but even as a kid that actually liked Edgy the Hedgie, I remember being shocked that a Mega Man X game got away with implying an actually pretty hard swear, in Command Mission, the boss fight after you get Massimo in your party starts with him mocking the original Massimo, from who your party member got the armor from, and Massimo decks him in the face, and says "Feeble Massimo?! *_FEEBLE MASSIMO!?_* YOU SON OF A--" and is interrupted by the loading screen transition.
Even I was shocked by that one, and I thought they should've gone full hog (heh) and had Sonic say "They really pissed off GUN" instead of "tick off" like in the final game.
I’m inspired by you man. I feel ashamed by the things I like some times and here you go with your unabashed love for sonic which I also share. Thank you for making your videos man
In issue 19 of the Archie Sonic Universe comic, Tails says "Dammit" in French on the cover. The French word for "Dammit" is ,"Sacrebleu" if you didn't know. For context, Antoine is working with Tails and he was muttering it under his breath because Antoine was annoying him.
It also seems like "Damn" is really the only swear word that Sega seems consistently okay with using in English versions of the games. It's infinitely more common, "ass" only appeared once, and "hell" appeared less than 10 times.
Really? Wow. American media loves that word for French characters 🤣🤣🤣
Although that does make the chefs song from the little mermaid a bit confusing
Man I really wish they’d give other Sonic characters their own games again. Shadow definitely deserves a second chance with a sequel and a Blaze and Silver game would be really interesting to play.
Fun fact: Eggman was the first sonic character to swear because in Segasonic the hedgehog that arcade game where u play as mighty Ray and sonic at the end of the game when u reach up to egg man he actually says dammit but u have to translate it from japenese to English to get it
Character accurate
I never knew about Sonic Swearing but it was a nice video about The History of Bad Words in the Sonic Series!!!! (also your music is good)
I mean it makes sense teenagers they curve sometimes
"You're DAMN right Knuckles" at 3:09 had me CRYING
7:55 In the second sonic movie Dr. Eggman is talking about how terrible the mushroom world is while he's there and he says "So I can finally leave this piece of shiitake planet!"
(You know, referencing the s word)
Honestly I don't mind a few swears here and there in Sonic games, as long as they don't overuse them like they did in Shadow the Hedgehog.
Na, Shadow just forced it
Technically hell is no longer profanity and it's always been that way since 1993
True. It's heard in Judge Claude Frollo's Song in The Hunchback Of Notre Dame (1997) with the line, "Destroy Esmerelda and Let her taste the fires of Hell, or else let her be mine and mine alone.".
i remember first mishearing a line espio says in sonic generations and bringing my dad in to ask if he heard it too, to which he just laughed and said "well, back in the 90s, sonic was for teenagers. it wasn't really 'for' little kids, so i'm not surprised if they curse." I don't think he knows how right he was, lmao.
Speaking of the Zeti, in the Japanese dub of Sonic Lost World, when you damage Zazz enough times, he'll transition to another phase by screaming "GO TO HELL!!".
^-^
In the Japanese versions they swear in like every game
I'm kinda used to it personally since I watched sonic x in Japanese

I'd like to imagine 'damn' is one of the only actual swear words that exists in the Mobius Universe, forcing everyone to use it when they want to swear
8:15 (Rachel) This is still my day and someone it's going to explain me what the 🔥 is going on here?
I feel like Shadow the Hedgehog is like an alternative universe where Sega is like "yeah everyone is allowed to swear"

I aint that old yet com on man
I wasnt Suprised that Shadow mostly does swearing
I hope they let Shadow swear a little bit in the third Sonic movie. It would be a nice touch given the profanity in his game, especially since I've heard the movie is taking inspo from his game as well as SA2.
