Suspiciously Master Emerald Shaped (Sonic Shorts 9)

AKA "the new haircut"
Animation and BGs by me, Knuckles voiced by DingDongFan53, Rouge voiced by CashlinSnow
This was a really big highlight for me, and I'm eternally greatful to have my work be a part of this project! It was actually a happy accident that my Sonic Shorts retrospective came out at the same time as this

Why does this animation feel like something out of Ed Ed and Eddy

[@thebloodedge284]

It's giving me crash bandicoot vibes.

[@cringeopedia]

RIGHT..

[@venomfan2020]

Ed, Edd and Eddy
Haven't heard that name in a while

[@BBK113]

It's the outlines right

[@circuitrionjuliusbreaker9924]

Well, considering Rouge can *swallow the Master Emerald whole and keep it in her cheeks like a jawbreaker* here...

[@SnowyMe1od_y]

“We outta emeralds”

[@SmokeTheHorsehog]

That final sentence implies that Knuckles is going to figure it out, eventually.

roll em up and pop it out like a roll of toothpaste,in short a lot of yowch

whats funny about this is you make rouge the the fool knuckles is the smart one here just being sarsatic, "I GUESS its not here"

[@mikekazz5353]

Nah she definitely got a new haircut.

[@floppsiemates]

“Where did my emerald go????” Suspiciously emerald shaped rouge

[@buttermati0ns649]

it would be funny to imagine if she accidentally swallowed it down her having a popeye style transformation gaining big ass arms

[@pufflepoint]

I saw the thumbnail before reading the title, so I though Rouge's head was just shaped like that, lol. Great skit and artstyle!

[@WhoCrappedInThisShack]

Yeah, I thought it was a Oney/Speedoru thing where the character just randomly deforms lol

[@Froggycolouring]

Same I also thought the stone column was a part of knuckle’s face 😭

[@springystarscout]

WAIT THAT WAS YOU????

Her art style was familiar.

my favorite part in Sonic Shorts 9 lol

[@dragoncross42]

This is awesome, love the art style of this animation. It was funny seeing Knuckles search for the emerald!! Amazing job on this short~!!!

[@theonewholaughswithinthede1377]

Girl: it my first time.

[@mantheray6109]

I love the way you drew Knuckles in it. It’s so silly and cartoony like it’s look like from a cartoon network show back in the 90s

[@Treydemark]

i almost instantly recognized that you made it because of the eyebrows

[@TrashEater2729]

The sonic sounds for the expressions 10/10

[@EmpressAlligator]

Ahhh I love this!! Great use of sound effects and expressions! Keep it up Shunks 💖

[@thegalaxyinapaperbag]

knuckles and rouge’s voices are so soothing to listen to

[@JacobBraun-di3ki]

Knuckles looks like red from angry birds with those eyebrows

[@theanimatormustachegrunt3307]

I really expected to her swallowing the entire chaos emeralds like one episode of spongebob when squidward eat a entire massive Gary food 0:14

[@masterplay148]

This short was so funny. Also, I feel like this short is a reference to something but I don’t know what.

[@mariahs6]

I agree Knuckles, Rouge totally did something new with her hair, it looks so… shapely.
Fantastic job all around!

[@Lucky_Lyra]

I feel like she would..

[@buttermati0ns649]

it would be funny to imagine if she accidentally swallowed it down her having a popeye style transformation gaining big ass arms

[@superkirby49]

When I first watched, I honestly didn't even realize until a few seconds after she opened her mouth

At least 5 different friends sent this to my DMs yesterday

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHH

"Hey, where did my Emerald go?!"

Congrats on making it in volume 9

[@Dom_Maretti]

Jerry cheese wedge pic vibes...

[@nataliab7754]

Love the style, it gives me Nickelodeon and Cartoon Network vibes!

[@darkdoctor1915]

I had no idea you made a short on there, I’m really happy for ya

[@jackantonio7647]

Just be glad she didn't swallow it or we'd have some real problems there.

[@jaggerguth4391]

Cream: I wonder Miss Rouge... How did you managed to put that whole emerald into your mouth?

[@damand6826]

(rouge spits the master emerald out of her mouth to knuckles)

[@yells-of-the-not-so-danged]

YOOOOO THIS IS SO GOOD

[@AmbiguouslyAwesome]

Ed Edd and Eddy-ass bit. Love it

[@hellthehedgehog]

Love the Sonic sound effects being used like they would in a cartoon, just makes it more amazing

[@kittygardenva2741]

Rouge's new haircut really suits her

[@floppsiemates]

I love the animation and its style 😭😭

[@F1Krazy]

The algorithm showed me this before it showed me the actual Volume 9 video so I was like "wait, there was a Volume 9?"

[@KhakiCap]

A wonderful surprise to see you in the new Sonic Shorts Vol.

[@BeachioSandschannel]

I think it’s in the… Uhhh… Wow, this is hard! Rouge must have it somewhere.

[@be_nice2008]

This is the most Looney Tunes thing I've ever seen for months.

[@Thatoneratty]

I love the artstyle
It looks so good

[@Lenachan3ko]

Oh my god YOU animated this? I loved this short so much!!! You did such an amazing job!! when I saw your upload I got so excited because I love your content and didn't know you liked Sonic too!

[@garfeldi_gaming]

this is very 2000s

[@WeakieDaveDesk]

I think knuckles stayed at the bird island for angry birds along with red for way too long. Those eyebrows could punch a hole in a home.

[@md7294]

Love the sound effects

[@SnivezSnivy]

I was so ecstatic to see Shunks on sonic shorts 9. I grew up watching sonic shorts, but only recently got into MLP. I found Shunks through their MLP content. Then for no reason, they're on sonic shorts. I flipped seeing a creator i follow nnow being put into a cartoon I watched as a kid, it was wild....

[@jackantonio7647]

Wow, nice work, I hope I see more sonic shorts on your channel 👍

[@SakuraStardust]

I love this pls make more

[@bakufan0658]

I was surprised u got involved with volume 9

[@silvasoul8938]

Using random sound effects from the game was a hilarious choice

[@ItYaBoiGreen]

This video reminds me of that stupid Sonic 3 image where the captions are something like: “So Sonic took the emerald I guess I’ll work with you” and then Eggman is just shaped like the master emerald

[@francoalmiron5107]

Love the Cartoon Network vibes this animation gives me!

[@larsthememelord3383]

“-oh yeah and one more thing.”
-columbles the echidna

[@greenlight4star]

I honestly can’t tell if Knuckles is being sarcastic or not at the end, and that makes it even funnier. XD

[@HealthGage0336]

You know what's scary about this? People have been inspired by this animation, and I'll leave it at that

[@haydenibbott2350]

You know, the previous Sonic Shorts never really did anything with Rouge.
Kudos for using her in an actually good skit.

[@AeizzatToha]

Rouge the Bat, why did she just swallowed the Master Emerald?

[@bebecranney8740]

Excellent

[@buildertherobloxian4731]

No, you aren't Stupid, Knuckles. Rouge is for coming up with this Hare-Brained Scheme.

[@DoneDragon1]

Pretty sure knuckles would propose if rouge was emerald shaped

[@superrupee]

Shadow elsewhere: I feel like somebody, somewhere, is looking for that damn 4th chaos emerald

[@Davtwan]

I wonder if she did it only to get him closer to her lol.

[@NecoArcPilkEnjoyer]

“Knuckles dear, we need to take you out off this island more often…”

[@e-mananimates2274]

Rouge is taking lessons from Kirby and his Mouthful Mode.

[@doggone_dogman]

Fun fact: Emeralds are the naturally occurring compound of Beryllium, a very toxic soft metal of the periodic table.

[@SleepyLuigi]

I love all of the sound effects.

[@javierrc5794]

One of the pillars has a lenny fface at the bottom 0:16

[@Alpha-oo8]

Hmmm, nothing suspicious here

[@SK-ib5hi]

I love this so much

[@noirua]

I dunno if this has been said already (I can't read), but this style of humor and storyboarding seriously reminds me of Courage the Cowardly dog for some odd reason lol. Love it

[@SuperCicabnOfficial]

Brazil 🐱🇧🇷: is in the Rouge's mouth duh! Also Hi Shunks can you tell @CashlinSnow when i say "I saw i saw a Pussy Cat".

[@Noah_PIayonroblx]

Why did she eated it lmao

[@goldprime118]

Average emerald stealing shenanigans

[@emerald.6156]

why was i half-expecting her to swallow the emerald

Bro got the Angry Birds eyebrows

[@emersonawesome3778]

This is hot

[@stickmanschannel734]

“where the emerald” *rouge’s suspiciously emerald shaped head*

[@nicholassgourakis6020]

This reminds me of when Squidward ate all of the snail food.

[@wishfulranger22]

this rocks so hard

[@commonwriternext]

I think this skit suffers the same issue as many of the other shorts in volume 9 where it lasts too long the joke would've worked better if it ended at cutting to Rouge with the emerald shaped head

[@Shunks]

I actually agree, that was the original plan but I was given suggestions to make it longer. If it had ended there it would have felt a lot more in line with the original batch of sonic shorts.
