February 28th, 2024 Question Timestamps:
-------------------------------------
1:27 - Recently, you answered a question about the possibility of a full LEGO Sonic game. A major appeal of LEGO games tends to be their giant playable roster with multiple deep cuts. The differences in character playstyles is most comparable to Heroes, with things like Espio being able to turn invisible while the other Speed types can't. Characters having abilities like free flight may be too much, but a workaround could be having specified areas they can fly over. With this in mind, how would you design the roster and abilities of a LEGO Sonic game?
3:37 - Why stop the Antiverse questions at Sonic? Name some of your favorite series and some anti ideas for that. […]
7:31 - […] So I ask Ian, what do you believe makes a good sidekick, what makes a bad one? Along with that, how should one approach the challenge of them still being the "next generation" of heroes, while knowing they can't necessarily be able to grow for multiple reasons/status quo?
11:37 - When it came to Geoffrey St. John, you show him having an artifact that connects him to Nagus as a kid. Which begs the question, which one of the parents was part of the Ixis cult: Ian St John or his wife?
12:43 - Sega decides they YOU want to expand on the world of Sonic! And of course in their infinite wisdom, they refuse to let you develop any existing concepts! […] How do you go about creating something of that scale with zero direction and everything aside from the general cast off limits? How would you integrate it into the existing Sonic mythos?
15:13 - Fozzie Bear went Super Saiyan, and he’s going to destroy the world. The prophecy says the only way he can be defeated is if Sonic and Shadow kiss. That’s literally what the prophecy says verbatim, Tails couldn’t believe it. Explain the next seven minutes.
17:07 - Another shipping Scenario: It’s a pair of boisterous bruisers with a thing for fingerless gloves and athletic tape (at least for one incarnation of one of them). It’s Mighty x Tangle, how does it go?
19:20 - Is the future for humans in Sonic media looking bright?
19:33 - […] For the sake of clarifying any misconceptions, my question is this: Is there any truth to the claim that SEGA says the Master Emerald canonically has no special powers and if so, does that mean Super Mecha Sonic from S3K falls under the same rules?
20:49 - We've seen the Master Emerald give some kind of "indications" or "visions" to Knuckles both in Superstars (with the M.E. telling Knuckles to go after Eggman) and Adventure (with the M.E. showing Knuckles the last pieces of it on the Egg Carrier). […] Are those visions on the Master Emerald, Tikal's doing? Are those visions the current "official" or in-universe explanation as to why Knuckles goes on adventures with Sonic and the squad (both in the Classic and Modern times)? And, are Tikal and Chaos still alive and wandering on Angel Island? Or the stuff we've seen on the prologue are just some easter eggs?
22:06 - After Advice from vector, silver becomes the CEO of "Rizz." What are the cheesy and borderline bad pick up lines he uses on: Blaze, Whisper, Jewel, Surge, Tikal, Tangle and Espio (please use the silver voice while doing these pls) and what are they're reactions to silvers attempts?
26:04 - We Amy fans are very excited about the tarot card stuff coming this year! The Art produced by Evan and team is beautiful. But may I ask? Will there be any mini comics or any kind of story associated with the cards release? hmm HMMMMM?
26:58 - Since you said in a previous bumblekast that Kit would like magical girls, is he a fan of Sabrina the Teenage Witch? Which Version does he enjoy the most?
29:35 - […] When you were writing Sage, were you envisioning her being a villain in a "doesn't know any better" way where she doesn't fully grasp what will happen to the planet if Eggman wins, or is she 100% understanding of the consequences and just doesn't have the capacity to care about anything beyond her family? I'm curious since she does show the ability for sympathy towards others when Sonic's cyber corruption worsening makes her upset.
30:58 - So Lanolin decides to do a teamwork exercise for the new Diamond Cutters by having a game night of Lethal Company. How badly will it go?
34:19 - My question is about relationships. If you could pair any Archie Sonic character with a character from the IDW run of Sonic comics, who would you pair and why?
36:38 - It's a dark and stormy night at the Restoration HQ and Tangle is up late practicing her trick shots. Suddenly a pair of shadows darken the door and it turns out to be Rough and Tumble here to beg Tangle to help them find dates! Is Tangle wingwoman enough to help them find dates or are Rough and Tumble hopeless after all?
38:13 - Just for fun, how would you go about taking the sonic never can’t meaningfully lose mandates and using them to make him win fights or contests he has absolutely no business winning, like he has a biting fight with surge, a brooding contest with shadow, or a swimming contest with eggman? […]
39:39 - Quick question, who paid the Chaotix in Sonic Rivals 2? Last I remember, Vector did say they were already paid, but like... who did that?
40:30 - Since Metal Sonic has currently no voice due to downgrades, do you think it could learn ASL? At least to insult Sonic in sign language, for fun :)
41:16 - So! It seems that everyone in the main universe, without exception, hates Starline (Correct me if I'm wrong), but what would happen if during his isekai adventures, Starline falls into an universe where everyone is in LOVE with him instead? (Kinda like those Shadow questions haha) What shenanigans would ensue and how would he handle this excess of attention?
*42:22** - PedantiCat is the best*
42:38 - Love is in the air and now it's Tangle's turn to be pursued by various characters who are suddenly in love with her! How would Tangle react to the likes of Shadow, Silver, Jet, Rouge, Blaze, Sticks, and Whisper now being in love with her?
44:37 - Archie Sonic critique time, Ian. In Tails Adventure, Tails should’ve defeated Speedy when they first fought. Not letting Tails win added nothing to the story. In fact, the story would be better if Tails beat Speedy. You can have the Mole Mech be what forces Tails to retreat instead, building up the threat of the mech for the final fight. Why couldn’t you just let Tails win? He went toe to toe with Sonic in House of Cards and Mecha Sally later on, but couldn’t land a single hit on Speedy? That makes no sense and it’s so unsatisfying. Why are you incapable of letting Tails win a fight against a major character without resorting to tools or gadgets? […]
48:35 - So.. with how vastly different the two of them are.. just for funsies. Boom Tails and Satam Tails swap places for a month. How does it go? How do they feel about their experiences when they return to their home dimensions?
50:33 - could the hedgehogs get their quills stuck in the walls if they hit the walls just the right way, or are the quills too weak for that?
51:34 - Considering the blanket "manuals aren't canon" statement of recent years and Origins' implication that Tails learned to fly immediately preceding Sonic 2, does that mean the current view is that Tails Adventure takes place after the Death Egg saga, or is Tails flying in that game just one of those "smile and nod" moments?
52:02 - I realized that most of my questions are reasonable, so it's time for a silly question: Do you think Sonic uses lip balm? I mean, all that running and the wind hitting your face hard can seriously damage the skin of your lips causing cracks, and what flavor of fruit would he use?
52:58 - Rouge, eager to see her definitely-not-friend-and-only-coworker Omega get a new hobby, convinces him to try going on a blind date. When he arrives, it turns out his date is Eggman Nega! Rouge (probably dying from laughter internally) *somehow* convinces Omega to go through with the date, and Nega goes along with it for reasons our inferior intellects could never understand. How does it go? Do they bond over their mutual hatred of Eggman, or does Omega immediately open fire as soon as they finish paying the bill?
54:17 - Silver and Whisper hanging out more, like the idea?
54:28 - Following up from last week, Eggman now decides that an AI generated commercial for Eggman Land is just the thing to improve its branding in the public eye. He asks Sage to put one together. How does it go? How well does she work with the prompts she’s given? Would this just be a lost Boom episode?
57:12 - So if Tangle and Shadow went on a secret mission and came back with their personalities (as in dispositions) swapped who would be more of a problem?
58:25 - Happy leap year!

51:34 yeah… I think Eitaro Toyoda’s approach to this is the best compromise of it. He said that the manuals and materials for the games are correct but what’s in the NEWEST games are the “most” correct.
Essentially: New material overrides the old but where it doesn’t update/contradict/etc they are okay to use.
If someone wants the exact quote I’ll provide (I think it’s in Japanese though?)
Since the total character count exceeded 10,000 (and 11,000), I’ve had to trim the questions down to fit into a single UA-cam comment. If you want the full questions, there’s always the Master List.
Also, there are only 7 romance questions (not counting the one about Super Fozzie) out of 31. Huh. Felt like more.
Question:
What if all of the Restoration got into a war against all of the Archie Freedom Fighters, Sonic and friends included in both sides respectively. Who would win?
Can yall just pay him to make your timestamps or something
@@RaiginAnimator Nah I've been repaid enough considering I get episodes early and was given free access to the Discord.
26:58 The idea that Kit is only ever this assertive and pedantic when magical girls are brought up kills me.
Right? It's so good! Love that he's ascended into magical girl elitist
I choose to believe Ian actually secretly loves ship questions lowkey. 😏

Steamed Hams references this episode: 0
Total since count began: 10
Total references to counter: 1
Whisper asks Tangle to meet her family. The lemur is surprised to find Whisper’s old man is the legendary Solid Snake, how does the meet up go?
"Why didn't they account for that?"
"Well cus... Shuddduuuuuup."
That's the best answer given this episode.
Love the Pedanticat callout and payoff in the sane episode, lmao.

Sure, please provide the quote

@@themightofgeburah5882 There is nothing more admirable than a person that cites their sources. Good job.
@@tonycorona8501 glad I could help.
When the ian is flynn
Lost Boom Episode: Sage ends up in the world of Sonic Boom, finds that dimension's version of Eggman, and as the doting father who'd give his alternate dimension daughter the world, he suddenly becomes a competent villain! What happens next!?
Mombot becomes a grandma? Steve becomes an Uncle?
...I kinda want this now. So wholesome. Like one step sideways from a full Addams family parody.
Edit: Excuse me. Rethinking tbis. Cubot should of f course be Cousin It. Metal Sonic could be Lurch.
...wait....did we just make Orbot the Mortisha of this parody? Or should Starline have that role?
Sonic: Did Metal just call me a paranoid little weirdo in Morse Code?
These always make me die of laughter their so good. Ive been resurrected 2 to 5 times at this point their so funny
Havent seen the episode itself yet but I saw the thumbnail, choked, and in the same moment cried out FOZZIE NO so I think the thumbnail artist is doing something right
When eggman reaches Pixar with the goal of taking it over, he must contend with Disney’s greatest mightiest weapon…Fozzie Bear himself
Boom Tails in SATAM question and answer made me laugh haha
43:55 I imagine Sticks is just doing so because everyone else is and that's very out of character for them. Like, Amy? Tangle looks nothing like Sonic, she's not even a hedgehog! Rouge? She doesn't look anything like a shiny gem! Shadow?! Okay something's going on here and she's gonna find out. It's definitely just for reconnaissance, she totally doesn't have a crush on her at all and it's she's not an Eggman robot pumping out invisible love radiation and she'll schedule as many dates as it takes to figure that out and- Oh God when did she start writing their names together in her notes surrounded by hearts?!
I think we should all include an apology to Ian every time we ask a shipping question. It is STRESSING himself to know end! His reaction to PedantiCat is the best thing ever though. 😂😂😂
Aw.
But we haven't even asked who or what he'd ship Sega with yet, have we?
How would Blaze go about courting someone? Let's say... Either Amy, Sonic, and/or just pick someone else
Clearly, Blaze would just find a diplomatic reason to park the entire Sol dimension in their back yard. Right?
Antoine and lanolin doesnt sound bad
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Ooo muppet time
👍
Still going over the master list, so I hope this one hasn't been asked yet:
1. Alright, guys, as we know, Shadow's story arc for his lost memory/identity concluded that, yeah, he was Gerald and Black Doom's creation and Maria's surrogate sibling. However, Sonic X added another twist by saying Maria launched more than one pod from the Ark during GUN's raid. And considering his lack of backstory and how similar they are in-universe, some theorize that Sonic himself is another of Gerald's creations/Shadow's brother. I'm aware that's probably not the case in the "main universe," but I wanted to hear both of your thoughts on this theory?
As someone who has been through it too many time to count, I don't think this question has ever been asked.
@@J.R.Unbound
That's cool to hear, and thank you for the quick reply.
@BKQA Hey Ian, I started thinking about what would happen if some of Eggman’s former henchmen formed a team, so I selected a few and wondered how you would write a team dynamic between Dr. Starline, Snively(post-boot), and Infinite? I feel like Starline and Infinite actually have enough common ground to become actual friends since both of them clearly have self worth issues and hate the same people, although I can’t imagine either of them liking Snively. It’s just evil Diamond Cutters with the two close friends and then their one third wheel friend. Want to make it clear that none of them work for Eggman anymore in this scenario.
In case anyone sees this, I’m basically imagining Starline and Infinite having a relationship similar to Vox and Valentino from Hazbin Hotel, Snively can be their Velvette.
So, Here’s my opinion on the worlds of all the Q&A scenarios, if there are Infinite Parallel Realities (IPRs) of Every Continuity of any franchise, as well as the alternate universes within each continuity.
So, in that case, Every 1990’s and 21st Century animated television series (both american and japanese; ova counts), all comic series (both preboot & reboot for Archie; also the mangas), the original VGs and spinoff games and the movies of the sonic franchise have non-canon IPRs of those worlds, and those realities are the questions and answers of the bumblecast to keep the made up scenarios becoming part of the original versions of those worlds. What do you think of this little headcanon, do you think it kind of makes sense?
