Just wanna point out that it can be platonic or more depending on how you interpret it, however be respectful too. People dont actually need a reason to ship two characters or just have a different perspective 👌 Personally I do hate Shadow seeing Amy as Maria since that would mean its throwing away Amy's individuality, everything she worked hard for to just be simplified as compassionate 😔 If anyone thats gonna be compared to Maria, its gonna be Cream who actually acts like a literal child n isnt paying rent like Amy. Also, if you don't like the ship, y even press on the video??? If you're gonna be immature, start growing up.
I can't wait until new guys replace them. Not because they're doing a bad job. But because I want to know how they really interpret character relations without Sega's restrictions on their neck.
@juxtaposedlime2734 Yep. While it won't be official Sega property or canon, we'll know what they intended and they can always do fan works based on their interpretations.
@mill2712 Iirc, this is also the case with EmuEmi's Sonic and Tails R. Because she hired Mike Pollock as Eggman, therefore SEGA has to oversee production because she's using their active talent, as opposed to Jason Griffith, Ryan Drummond, etc. as they no longer work for SEGA.
Didn't Amy herself persuade Shadow in SA2 to not give up on humanity, which lead to later realise his mistake and remember Maria's wish, leading him to cooperate with the rest? I thought they both had more special connection.
@jin1p777 YUP! They do in the sense that Shadow has only ever listened to Amy when she has spoken to him. No one can convince him to get out of his comfort zone but Amy. He definitely has a soft spot for her n cream.
It’s implied but never really expanded on, like many things in the franchise 😂. Amy’s like the one person besides Rouge (sometimes) that Shadow will listen to.
I feel that is what he is talking about, Amy reminds Shadow of María and she already got him out of the very dark place he was in in SA2 so if anyone can talk him down is her, maybe even more than Rouge
@carso1500 I think it's more of respect Shadow has for Amy, and it would be awful to throw away all of Amy's individuality with him viewing her that way. He points out that his keeping his promise to Amy AND Maria. Maria and Amy are compassionate, just like the majority of the cast. If anyone is to be viewed like Maria, it would be Cream since she acts like an actual child while the rest don't.
@@pberry-daki that is what I was talking about, someone can remind you of another person without you seeing them as that person, I was saying that in the case of Amy she reminds Shadow of Maria's compasión and heart and it seems like Shadow reacts to those kinds of emotions the best
@ScatterbrainPete His restricted as well unfortunately (I think) on what to write 😔 a lot of it is just for fun, but I'm happy to hear what he has to say other than what I've seen in games which has been a huge disappointment to me.
It's interesting to think that due to Sega having a tight leash on characters, a writer may go, "I'd like Shadow to just pat Cream on the forehead to show affection before he runs off to fight... but I'm not allowed to do that." Thank goodness for fanfics.
Honestly, I watched this part in the podcast, and I honestly believed he always cared about Amy---I mean, she's the one who helped him remember Maria's TRUE wish in SA2, and in MOSTH, Shadow was the only one who knew that Hot Honey was Amy's favorite band. The ONLY one. AND he buys her the Hot Honey tickets on top of this. And when Amy told him he's attending the concert with her, he didn't really argue---He basically said "I don't know if I should". If this was ANYONE else, Shadow would've said "No." just downright "No." and wouldn't have came to the concert. Of course, since Shadow has a soft spot for Amy, he was just hesitant because he couldn't bring himself to say "no" to her. Also...Shadamy confirmed...? 🤔 (Don't kill me pls, I know he's just saying he views her as a close friend). Anyways, Shadow having a soft spot for Amy is canon to me now. ALSO ALSO, amazing animatic! 😊
Yes, I agree! Whether the emotions he feels for her are platonic or romantic in nature, I think it’s important to highlight the connection the two characters have. They’ve been through so much separate and together, so we should acknowledge it :)
YYEEESSS!!! You know, I'm surprised that the sonic community isn't giving the BumbleKast the same amount of attention as the take-covers.. It's technically more available than that twitter stuff - and we get WAY more incite on where these characters are going from what's on that podcast! 'Cause, y'know, one of the hosts IS the Head Writer For The Entire FRANCHISE!! .... Or at least one of the big ones! 'Come on guys where have you been all this time!!
It's best to be cautious with the Bumblekast because it's a mixture of actually canon material, Ian's personal headcanons, and the two hosts just goofing off. Fans have taken it the wrong way before.
"More available" dude the Twitter takeover IS FREE! You have to pay to Ian flynn to answer you, and even then he said so himself that his answers may not be accurate!
I do like to imagine Shadow and Knuckles have a very lowkey friendship. Like no one could guess that they’re friendly with one another, let alone tolerate each other. I like to think Shadow is genuinely interesting in Angel island and asks Knuckles about it to which Knuckles excitedly explains its history and shows him around.
I wouldnt call this "Shadamy" this felt more like he was saying that Shadow just feels a pull to protect Amy and maybe Cream and he is nicer to them than he is to the boy characters. He definitely cares about any young girls who have a good heart and remind him of Maria. But he also seems to be friends with Amy if the Twitter Takeovers are anything to go by. 😂
In Dark Beginnings we see Maria tackle hug Shadow a few times. Only person to do that sides her is Amy. Any wonder why he sees Maria in Amy later on. Its why I ship the two. Plus they get a lot of wholesome fan art.
It's kinda sad that the "edginess" is forced on Shadow sometimes, specially when it comes to his relationships. Like, in Sonic Adventure 2, Shadow has lines where he acknowledged Sonic as a "ultimate lifeform", basically saying that he recognize Sonic as his equal, and he was also able to change his mind about letting the earth be destroyed because of Amy, who not only made him remember about Maria's true wish but she also made him feel as he was not a weapon that is only doing what he does because it was his "guideline", also, Rouge was the one to help him understand that he isn't alone, as she would be there for him anytime in Sonic 06. So, making him being totally indifferent towards everyone feels forced, along with the argument that he has no friends (which, pardon for saying this but, is a dumb argument). My headcanon is that Shadow does have softspots for some of the characters while remaining indifferent towards those he doesn't interact frequently, like: Sonic (view him as a annoying immature brother), Tails (respect for his intelligence, but still see him as a kid), Cream (remembers him of Maria, as sweet and caring child, so he has to protect her), Knuckles (simply respects him, but also think that he is dumb), Blaze (respects her, nothing that deep), Silver (sees him as a naive but powerful ally), Rouge (his best friend and the one to keep his mind from being consumed by his own demons), Amy (I see their dynamic more like older brother and younger sister, she also remind him of Maria and is probably the one that does understand that he is more complex than just edgy), and Omega (his other best friend, someone that he knows understand his problems as a artificial being that doesn't know if his desires are truly his or just a part of his programming; you could also saying the same about Emerl, but in a smaller scale as they are not that close).
I like to think of Amy and Shadow in the way of Enid and Wednesday from the Netflix series: The walking ball of gothic darkness is willing to let just a little bit of sunshine into his life. Violent threats are at the tip of the tongue, to everyone EXCEPT her. And any rare hugs are not given, they are EARNED.
Yes. Young girls seem to be a weakness for him. He seems to see Maria in any girls younger than him that have a good heart. And he can't bring himself to be mean to them, so he seems to cave to their whims.
amy you queen please succeed. be happy and be yourself. at first i was opposed to shadamy... but what the hell is wrong with me? first off. i don;t even ( and shouldn't) care about ships and 2nd off. it is fan canon (as far as i know correct me if i'm wrong) and 3rd off. it's all fan opinion and good wholesome fun.. i can be a "sonamy" person and coexist with any other person.. shadmay. . i wish you all the success of the universe sorry for being so dramatic but.. i need t say that.... thanks
I swear, it just makes sense, but they won't utilize Amy anymore for some reason. She's the one making friends and allies. Like, how many times has Amy indirectly saved everybody by being a sweetheart and telling the opposition What's what? But they don't let her bonds with people stick out. Shadow, Blaze, and Silver are part of the family because of Amy. But they don't exchange dialogue after. It's so weird.
@ekeditz20 There's none. Shadow is ageless and his situation is just like the last air bender and Futurama. Plus all characters ages have been removed 👍
Nobody said they were lol. They didn't say "Shadow has feelings for Amy," they said "Shadow TRUSTS Amy." That can be completely platonic. Do you have friends of the opposite gender that you trust?
@@DOYOUGOTGAMEONYOURPHONEShe isn't 😭 she's girly but she's far from immature and is on the same level of emotionally maturity as someone older like Sonic or Knuckles. They're all around the same age, she's not a kid.

Ian Flynn is pretty good as Shadow
AMY HUGGED HIM AND IT ALMOST FIXED HIM OML
You know I noticed that Shadow tends to gravitate more to Team Rose outside of Team dark 😂
Team dark is shadow’s work friends
Shadamy may be canon soon,best shipp after all.
AGREED
