byan, laying on the floor and staring up at the ceiling (high? sober? your best guess is as good as mine): existence and sentience are both a curse. this is the fault of the woman who gave birth to me; she forced this burden upon me. and for what? to feed the machine of capitalism? to make some pawn within feel better about himself, about the insecurities he's garnered as a consequence of this pathetic and manipulative society as he beats the shit out of me for not fitting the mold dictated of me upon birth? why couldn't i have been born a cat... so easily satisfied with life after a simple nap in a spot of sunlight? finding enjoyment in chasing creatures smaller than me rather than being doomed to think about the meaninglessness behind it all?

Prskfacts 2nd anniversary!

Today (March 13th) is the second anniversary of when I started posting trivia! Thank you so much for the support over the last two years, it means a lot and I'm glad people continue to enjoy the blog!

As of today there will be some changes to how this blog is run. Posts will continue to be daily, but most days will be reblogs of old facts instead of new ones (new ones will still be posted sometimes). It has been incredibly hard for me to keep posting daily over the last year and a half and I feel like the quality of trivia has been declining recently as I've been running out of things to post. I don't want that to continue, so I'll be focusing on quality over quantity from now on. Plus, it's been a long time and a lot of people weren't here for the older posts, so they'll be fun to revisit.

I will still be answering asks, but don't expect me to be as regular with this. It will probably continue at the rate it has for the past few months. This is just to give me time to focus on uni and personal life over this blog, which was getting to the point of being like a job for me. I will also be emptying my inbox today because it's got like 800 unanswered asks in it and I need it to be more manageable. Sorry to anyone whose questions I didn't answer, but feel free to send them again (submissions have been put on the queue).

Sorry this is a bit of a downer anniversary post. To reiterate, I'm not fully moving away from prsk or this blog, just reducing my activity. I hope you continue to enjoy prskfacts for the next year!

So in January 2024 I explained what 4kids was to an anon and said this:

and someone said this in the tags:

i decided explaining shadow the hedgehog lore in depth was the funniest way to semi-retire from this blog that wasn't posting "sayonara you weeaboo shits" or posting my shitpost drafts and going radio silent afterwards. so thank you to the person who said that you gave this blog a slightly less unceremonious death. also if ur a new sth fan who got in bc of the movie this might be useful idk i mainly just wanted an excuse to talk about shadow the hedgehog

So 50+ years before the events of peak fiction Sonic Adventure 2, we have Gerald and Maria Robotnik, Eggman's grandfather and cousin respectively. Gerald was a revolutionary scientist/roboticist (and archaeologist, this will be relevant later) and one of the greatest minds of his time, making huge scientific developments with the goal of bringing hope and happiness to humanity. One of his greatest inventions was a space station for scientific research, the Space Colony ARK, which served as his main lab from then on. The construction and operations of the ARK were partially funded by the United Federation (in-universe USA), but primarily funded by GUN (Guardian Units of Nations, the in-universe US military).

So SA2 is an extremely anti-military game. That's going to become apparent from here on out. So, GUN wants weapons in exchange for funding, and they're starting to get annoying about it. Obviously this is not what Gerald wants, so he asks the President of the UF if he can intervene, since the govt is the other source of funding. So the president says he'll do that, but he also sucks and decides to ask Gerald to invent immortality. Gerald hates the idea of this just as much, and shoots it down immediately, not to mention it being an impossible task.

However, back on Earth, Maria gets sick, and is diagnosed with NIDS (neuro-immuno deficiency syndrome (EN) or native immunodeficieny syndrome (JP), either way it's clearly based on AIDS), a terminal illness. Gerald manages to get Maria brought up to the ARK when treatments on Earth are failing so the team up there can do assessments and research treatments. The low gravity on the ARK also helps to keep the illness' effects at a low, for the most part. Maria's family back at Earth isn't exactly happy about all this though (the Robotnik family drama isn't actually too important here I just wanted to talk about it).

So the president keeps pushing for the immortality thing, and Gerald figures he can use this to find a cure for Maria, so decides to go forward with Project: Shadow, named as such because "the concept [of immortality] is as intangible as a shadow". GUN still wants weapons as well, which is where the archaeology thing starts coming into play. So to tie SA2 into its predecessor, there's these robots that look like the god Chaos from SA1. Gerald had researched Chaos in the past, and builds robots based on it to give to GUN.

Okay now we're finally getting closer to actual Shadow stuff. The scientists are using a Chaos Emerald in their research into immortality, and develop Chaos Drives using the Chaos Energy from the emerald. Gerald also supplies GUN with these drives so they can use them as a power source to try and appease them (they still use them 50 years later to power their mechs, GUN robots drop them when destroyed in SA2). The staff test out these drives on a salamander when they feel they're developed enough to be used on living tissue. Some time later, the salamander being used in testing has such rapid cellular growth that it can't survive on its own, and it becomes violent and uncontrollable, prompting Gerald to build it a life support pack and seal it away in the ARK's basement (functionally). This is the Biolizard, the prototype Ultimate Life Form and the final regular boss of SA2 (also one of two characters with a confirmed birthday, that being January 27th).

More Robotnik family drama stuff just bc I feel like mentioning it, you can skip this paragraph. So Maria's been up on the ARK for a while now, enough years that some scientists on the ARK think she was born there, and Gerald isn't making any progress with creating a cure. Some of the scientists are even starting to doubt that Maria is even ill, since her symptoms are invisible most of the time. Also, the rest of the Robotnik family is losing faith in Gerald and it's getting to a point where they want either a cure or for her to be sent home to be with her family. Gerald cannot yet provide a cure, but he also does not want to send Maria home because she will die. See now Gerald has a pretty big ego. He constantly talks about how much of a genius is and has boundless confidence in himself, which only now is being put to the test. He keeps biting off more than he can chew, and it's starting to cost his family.

Here we fucking go. Exactly 50 years prior to the game Shadow the Hegdehog, the Black Comet passes by Earth. This comet it the home of an alien race called the Black Arms, led by this demonic looking alien guy called Black Doom. Gerald makes contact with the comet, and strikes a deal with Doom, who was interested in Gerald's work with the Chaos Emeralds. Black Doom lends his DNA to be used with Project Shadow, and it reacts well with the Chaos energy. See now Doom has this plan to invade Earth next time his comet comes by, and he wants the thing Gerald is making to be able to do that for him essentially. An Ultimate Life Form is pretty appealing when you want to conquer the Earth.

Also fun thing that originates from a 4koma but was brought up for the first time in English in Shadow Generations: Maria is the one who named Shadow. He originally called the project "Project Shadow" out of mockery as mentioned earlier, and also thought the name sounded too dark for the project he was using to help develop a cure to Maria's illness. However Maria said that he should name the hedgehog he created "Shadow", because a shadow shows the way to the light. Maria also designed Shadow's shoes and inhibitor rings to try and reduce the strain his body will be under from the alien DNA and Chaos energy (Gerald's Journal specifically refers to them as mobility and focus aids). Fun fact 3 if you hack the camera during the lab cutscene in Shadow 05 there's multiple failed Shadow prototypes in the room.

So why is Shadow a hedgehog? It's not ever been confirmed, but it is heavily implied that Shadow was based on the Hidden Palace mural from Sonic 3 & Knuckles. This is an ancient prophetic mural that depicts a blue creature glowing gold fighting a robot that has the Master Emerald. It's depicting the true final boss of the game. We know Gerald visited Angel Island and, while it's never mentioned, it's likely that he saw this mural and made Shadow in the blue/gold figure's likeness (which is why Shadow looks like the Adventure-era Super Sonic design specifically).

We're gonna have to go back to the archaeology stuff for a bit. Years before Project Shadow one of Gerald's sons (presumably Maria's dad, since it's stated that the other son is a roboticist and it makes sense for him to be Eggman's dad) discovers this robot built by an ancient civilization while doing some archaeology shit. Gerald finds it in a warehouse some time later while on the ARK. After researching into it more he discovers that this robot is a weapon capable of mimicking the combat and abilities of other people and weapons as well as being reactive to the chaos emeralds. Presumably Gerald puts the robot back into storage because his Journal (the shadow gens one) doesn't mention him again for ages.

So fast forward to Shadow being in-progress. Gerald is researching the robot again and discovers that it is called a Gizoid (he is later given the name Emerl in Sonic Battle). Emerl can establish a "Link" to a person, becoming completely loyal to them, provided they have some sort of power (Gerald shows Emerl a gun). As mentioned, Emerl is a weapon programmed to be very destructive, but currently Gerald has him under his control.

Although, GUN gets demanding again due to still not having results for the immortal super soldiers they wanted. So Gerald hands over Emerl, knowing full well the risk of GUN just giving him something more powerful than the gun Gerald had and developing a Link with them instead. GUN doesn't really give a shit about Emerl though and asks for something else. Gerald uses this as an opportunity to give them a massive, planet-destroying, Death Star-esque laser cannon, called the Eclipse Cannon. Obviously, GUN can never use it, but it's a big powerful weapon and they're the US military so they're happy with it. Its true function is actually for Shadow to use it to blow up the Black Comet when it comes back past Earth in 50 years, because of that whole deal about Shadow being used by Black Doom to conquer Earth. (Gerald does apologise in his journal for kind of actively ruining Shadow's life before he's even been born, but y'know he's kinda on a streak of making bad decisions at this point).

Shadow is finally awakened and quickly becomes incredibly close with Maria, developing a sibling relationship. She tells him about her love for Earth and he takes care of her and looks out for her when she's struggling. Dialogue in Shadow 05 and Shadow Generations suggests that aside from testing and combat training, Shadow was treated like a fairly normal kid. Maria mentions running around the ARK and playing with him, as well as going to school with him (fun fact: Maria says in Shadow Gens that he never handed in any of his homework).

(To get Shadow age discourse out the way: he's physically 15. This is stated in his character bio in the leaked Sonic 06 script, which admittedly is not entirely accurate, but there's also other information to suggest this, such as him having the same height and weight as Sonic (15) and Silver (14) while Knuckles and Espio (both 16) are taller and heavier. And yeah there's some sources that put him as ageless and that script is the only thing to ever give him an actual age and all the character ages were removed from the official bios anyway due to a timeskip between Forces and Frontiers but you get the idea he's physically the same age as Sonic. Also no he did not age while frozen. Go win internet arguments or something)

Gerald also comes to think of Shadow like a son, which is funny because at this point in the Journal he stops referring to Maria's dad as his son. Likely because he and his wife had another child, which reads like they've lost hope in Maria being saved and are starting over. I mean yeah that's very clearly what's going on.

Unfortunately shit starts to go downhill from here. Emerl absorbs enough weapons to make him go out of control and he goes on a destructive rampage across the ARK. He's shut down and Gerald reprograms him with a 'soul' to prevent this from happening again, and a self-destruct function just in case it does. However, the rampage causes those Artifical Chaos robots I mentioned earlier to go out of control as well. Those are taken down as well but an SOS has been sent out to Earth by this point (there were also other general safety concerns bc of the evil demon aliens and. the military blaming other people for things they asked for)

So GUN and the government kinda go "fuck we need to pretend like this isn't out fault" so GUN goes up to space and shuts down the colony. By raiding it and killing almost everyone on board, covering it up by saying there was an accident. Only three ARK residents are known to have survived: Gerald, Shadow, and a kid called Abe (who is the GUN commander in present day). Considering that they spared the only other kid on the ARK, Maria was probably shot because she was with Shadow and was helping him into an escape pod.

Shadow is found and put in cryo and Gerald is arrested by GUN and made to finish his research under supervision. Gerald learns Maria died and goes insane with grief. He becomes immensely hateful towards humanity as a whole and secretly reprograms Shadow's memories to make him think that Maria's final wish was for him to avenge her (by literally destroying the Earth) instead of what it really was, which was to protect the people of Earth. Gerald is then executed by firing squad.

(Additional Robotnik family lore: Takashi Iizuka confirmed not too long ago that Eggman was born after Maria died. Eggman also mentions that he didn't know Maria in one of his unlockable memos in Frontiers, but reveals that her death was felt throughout his childhood. Apparently the attention was never really on him due to everyone always focusing on how great Maria was. Knowing Eggman this may be a slight exaggeration but yeah there's speculation that the Robotnik Family Drama will be relevant at some point since they keep bringing it up in recent materials)

Fast forward 50ish years to SA2. Eggman finds his grandfather's journal from his supervised work while he was being held by GUN and learns about his work on the "Ultimate Life Form" who can destroy things. Eggman wants to conquer the world and he's like yeah I want that so he breaks into the GUN base where Shadow is in cryo. Eggman is also the first person in 50 years to try the password "Maria" to free Shadow (Gerald got to set the password for whatever reason they've rewritten the lore a couple times don't worry about it).

Also Shadow being freed is so funny like you gotta remember he's 15 and an emo bordering on theatre kid and also the last thing he remembers is his sister getting shot and he sees Eggman, probably didn't even clock that it wasn't Gerald for 30 seconds, and is like "I'll grant your wishes bring me the chaos emeralds and meet me on the ARK lol bye" and what he means is "we're gonna blow up the Earth bc the military killed my sister like 3 hours ago as far as i'm concerned" but like he doesn't tell Eggman this so Eggman's just like "fuck yeah let's take over the world". Eggman goes to meet Shadow on the ARK and Shadow explains the Eclipse Cannon and Eggman's like "cool I can use this to threaten Earth until everyone has to submit to me".

Also Rouge is here because she works for GUN as an agent and they want her to investigate Eggman and Shadow. Also GUN is stupid and keeps trying to arrest Sonic because he looks like Shadow and Shadow robbed a museum bc it had an Emerald. They literally have newsreel footage of Shadow and everyone's like "no this is Sonic" (this makes way more sense if you consider that Shadow's original design as when he was being developed as "Terios" was way closer to Sonic's). GUN arrest Sonic twice in this game, and attempt a third time. Sonic escapes police custody twice and evades arrest on the third one. He also says he doesn't like cops this is important. Anyway he and Shadow keep trying to kill each other. Sonic wants to know what the deal is but that doesn't stop him from trying to fight Shadow constantly. Shadow wants to blow up Earth but this also doesn't stop him from fighting Sonic constantly.

Eggman, Rouge and Shadow go to GUN's Prison Island where they send everyone they arrest and then steal the Chaos Emeralds that GUN has and blow up the island. Using the six Emeralds they have, Eggman powers up the Eclipse Cannon and livestreams himself blowing up the moon with it. The Heroes go to the ARK as well and there's some whole drama there but this ain't about them. Eggman gets the seventh Chaos Emerald and puts it into the cannon, which activates Gerald's doomsday plan that Shadow did not tell Eggman about. The ARK sets off on a crash course for Earth so now the Heroes and Eggman and Rouge are trying to turn it off.

Also there was a whole thing where Rouge looks into Project Shadow and all she can find is stuff about the Biolizard so she thinks Shadow is lying or delusional. I mean we know he's telling the truth but back then this was like adding to the mystery. Not that relevant in retrospect. Moving on.

Back to Shadow. His goal is fulfilled and he's kinda just standing there looking out the window as the ARK falls. Amy got left behind when everyone went to go shut down the ARK and she happens to find Shadow and asks what his deal is. She talks about the good of humanity and manages to partially say the exact same thing as Maria said when she put Shadow in the escape pod when she was dying. Shadow remembers Maria's wish for him to give everyone a chance to live and be happy, cries very briefly, and then runs off because he has his real memories back now and needs to fix this shit.

Sonic and Shadow go Super and use Chaos Control to warp the ARK back into orbit and stop the doomsday program. However Shadow isn't accustomed to using a Super form and is weakened (there's this whole thing about Shadow realising that Sonic might be the true Ultimate Life Form if you take long enough on the final boss). Sonic warns him to return back to the ARK but he doesn't, and ends up losing his super form and falling to Earth, presumably dying (Twitter Takeovers are noncanon but #5 says that Sonic tried to save Shadow but Shadow let himself die because otherwise Sonic would've fallen with him and as far as he knew then, died with him. This isn't shown or mentioned in the games but is likely what happened given that Sonic comes back to the ARK afterwards with one of Shadow's inhibitor rings).

Shadow was actually meant to stay dead and SA2 itself was actually pretty vague about what really happened 50 years ago. Pretty much everything I mentioned prior to the SA2 summary was lore introduced in later media (this will be relevant later). But, Shadow ended up becoming the most popular character in the franchise so Sonic Team decided to bring him back for Heroes and write more solid lore for him.

In Heroes, Rouge is stealing some shit from Eggman and finds Shadow in A Tube so she lets him out. He's being guarded by a robot called E-123 Omega, who decides to fight them because he's angry and loves violence and killing things (not a joke). Rouge manages to stop the boys from fighting each other and is like "let's go find Eggman" so they do and also they're called Team Dark now. She wants his treasure, Shadow has amnesia and wants to know who he is and why he's here, and Omega wants to prove to Eggman he's the best robot ever and also kill and destroy things. I dunno why Rouge doesn't think to tell Shadow anything. I assume it's because this was the first third party mainline title and they wanted to keep things simple for new players who hadn't played SA2 which was only available on Dreamcast or Gamecube, neither of which sold well compared to the PS2 or Xbox.

During the story Team Dark finds a Shadow Android, and later, shitloads of them in Eggman's warehouse. Shadow and the others aren't really sure if he's the real Shadow from SA2 or if he's another android who's just gained sentience. At least now Rouge is somewhat justified in not telling him anything since she's not sure if he's real now. Cue Shadow having an identity crisis. This plot carries over to the next game.

Shadow 05 takes place exactly 50 years after Gerald's deal with Black Doom. The Black Comet comes back to Earth and Doom and the rest of the Black Arms start invading and fucking shit up. So Doom wants Shadow to work for him and conquer Earth so he finds his son and asks him to go get the Chaos Emeralds. He also does not tell Shadow that he's his dad he just tells him what to do and leaves him to work it out and Shadow just does this without question because BD clearly knows who he is so he might be able to tell him who he is.

Shadow 05 is infamous for its choose-your-own-adventure story so to quickly list off the noncanon endings he can:

Destroy Earth (Pure Dark/Dark)

Conquer the universe (Pure Dark/Hero)

Side with his dad (Semi Dark/Dark)

Kill Eggman (Semi Dark/Hero)

Decide he's an android and kill Eggman (Neutral/Dark)

Decide he's an android and kill Eggman BUT take over the Eggman Empire and lead and android uprising this time (Neutral/Hero)

Stay on the ARK and become its protector (Semi Hero/Dark)

Have implied suicidal depression (Semi Hero/Hero)

Go insane with power?? idk what's going on (Pure Hero/Dark)

Say he's gonna kill his dad and presumably does it offscreen (Pure Hero/Hero)

The true ending (that doesn't actually lead from any of the previous so who knows how we got here) has Shadow obtain all the Chaos Emeralds and then BD uses them to bring his Comet into Earth's atmosphere so he can start destroying things. BD then loredrops that Shadow was made to help him conquer Earth and he processes this for like a minute then decides to kill BD. BD then loredrops that he's Shadow's dad and Shadow gets really close to crashing out over this one but the Chaotix manage to find an old tape from Gerald just in time and play it for him that helps calm him down a bit and tells him how to kill BD. Also it reminds him of the promise he made to Maria again.

So he goes Super, kills his dad and blows up the Black Comet destroying the entire Black Arms race. Also if you take really really long on this boss fight then Eggman mentions that he found Shadow after he fell to Earth, confirming this is the real Shadow from SA2 and not one of the androids. After BD is killed Shadow seems to have mostly remembered everything and decides to move on from his past and become his own person.

I'm assuming Sonic Battle takes place after Shadow 05 because he knows he was made by Gerald in this game. So Sonic finds Emerl, that Gizoid robot from earlier, and everyone befriends him but is also trying to work out who/what Emerl is. Sonic says that although Emerl is a weapon of mass destruction, he has a heart and he trusts him to not destroy things, just like Shadow. Shadow has a mini crisis over this and is wondering why he has a soul and feelings if he was created as a weapon and Rouge sits him down and tells him that Gerald didn't want him to be a weapon. Shadow still has Feelings about this but that's kinda it here.

06 isn't canon and also barely makes sense but it had good Shadow characterisation. So we're gonna cover this as quickly as possible. So Shadow works for GUN now (for some reason?? it's only in this game whatever) and he and Rouge go to get The Time God of Italy. or half of it. this half of it is Mephiles, who takes the form of Shadow's shadow. Mephiles and Shadow keep fighting during the game and Mephiles taunts him that hundreds of years in the future, humans blame Shadow for the apocalypse (caused by Mephiles. who looks like Shadow. so) and put him in cryo again (oh yeah Shadow's immortal I don't think I ever clarified that but you probably worked it out). Anyway at the end of Shadow's story he says this raw ass line "if the world chooses to become my enemy i will fight like i always have" and then he takes off his inhibitors and blows up Mephiles. But Mephiles doesn't die and then kills Sonic and then fuses with the other half of the Italian Sun slash Time god and then there's the bit where a human girl kisses a dead Sonic and now he's alive again and triple S go super and blow up the Italian Time slash Sun god. Sonic then erases the god from existence and bam 06 isn't canon anymore praise be.

Is anyone still reading this. Why? I'm not even taking this seriously anymore I'm enjoying this way too much.

So allegedly Sonic Prime is canon and it probably takes place somewhere vaguely around here. Sonic Prime actually doesn't fit on the timeline due to ooc and also Cubot and Orbot but it's "after Sonic Advance 3" so it's either before or after 06. Anyway Sonic accidentally breaks spacetime and is now hopping around the multiverse. Shadow is here too so that he has someone to play off of. They're like. Really gay here like there had to be at least one sonadow fan on the writing team why did they do the SA2 falling thing again that's evil. Also there's one line at the end of season 2 iirc that got translated into. actual romantic language in some dubs kinda like the destiel confession adding in the line for Dean in the Spanish dub. does this mean sonadow is destiel 2. i need to start calling buddie destiel 3. Shadow breaks the sound barrier 3 times in the finale to save Sonic's life while bridal carrying him. love wins. Sonic Prime is pretty mid but bonus points for good yaoi 7/10

In terms of the next big Shadow lore game we have Shadow Generations. The Time Eater sends Shadow to the void but manages to send Maria and Gerald there too from a point in time not too long before shit went down on the ARK. Shadow kinda has the worst day of his life in this one. Also Black Doom managed to regrow himself but he's not at full power. He wants to use Shadow as a vessel due to him being the Ultimate Life Form and so activates all of Shadow's alien biology, making him "perfect" so BD can take over his body. In some ways this acts as closure for Shadow since yknow. He's had amnesia TWICE since he knew them and also the Gerald here gets to tell Shadow all the stuff that he'd only heard previously in recordings about the Black Arms. Gerald also finally Apologises to Shadow directly. Shadow gets like really angry at BD but Maria comforts him and tells him to not give into BD and his anger, since he exists to show the way to the light. Shadow kills his dad for a second time. Gerald and Maria are sent back to their time and Shadow tries to stop it and almost has a panic attack (for the second time this game he has one in the prequel) but Maria comforts him again. Shadow cries again and that's the end of the game.

So by the time we get to Sonic Forces he's kinda just doing his own antihero thing and sometimes works with Team Dark. He kills (? at least beats the shit out of) Jackal Squad, a mercenary team that was working for Eggman at the time. He spares the leader and calls him weak and pathetic and leaves. And this GROWN ASS MAN throws a fit over this and decides he has to prove he isn't weak. So he agrees to be a test subject in Eggman's latest experiement with this rock called the Phantom Ruby that has incredibly inconsistent properties but the big one is Virtual Reality (this in itself is presented inconsistently). So Infinite is infused with the power of the Ruby and wears a mask now because his previous weakling face was unsightly or something. He then decides to shut down Omega and torment Shadow (who doesn't remember him) for calling him weak. He then tells Shadow he's gonna go kill Sonic for some reason. And then does (or at least everyone thinks he does). This is all in the prequel DLC. Shadow shows up halfway through the main game to help the heroes and that's about it.

And that's kinda it. There's the IDW comics in terms of what I'd consider major appearances but I'm like 2 years behind on those so idk what Shadow's up to in those now. There was also the July 2021 Sonic Channel story with him that kinda altered my brain chemistry. Not entirely sure when it takes place. Pre-Forces maybe? You can read a TL of it here.

Oh yeah I should clarify on what was said in the 4kids post. So in that I talked about how the dub in avoiding an onscreen character death actually caused Shadow MCD. Sonic X is interesting because it was developed at around the same time as the "Shadow arc" of games in the early 2000s and ends up taking a different approach to the truth of 50 years ago. I haven't watched X fully yet but from what I know about it Maria never knew Shadow. All of that stuff was made up by Gerald and put in Shadow's brain. Like Maria did exist and there's a whole episode where they meet the soldier who shot her but she didn't know Shadow. Iirc it was something to do with the escape pods she sent down being empty thereby implying Shadow was created entirely on Earth post-GUN raid.

Following the game's SA2 adaptation and his later return, Shadow meets a girl called Molly in season 3. She's a fighter on her planet that's at war and mostly destroyed. Iirc she wants to keep fighting, but her friends are growing hopeless and think they're all just gonna die in battle and never get to live. Long story short, at the end of the episode, she sacrifices herself and charges her fighter ship straight at the enemy and is killed when it crashed into the enemy ship. In the series finale, Shadow helps Sonic fight Dark Oak, the main antagonist of the season, and isn't seen again afterwards, presumably having died. However, he shows up during the credits, visiting Molly's grave, confirming he's still alive.

4kids obviously didn't like the child death, so at the end of Molly's episode she ends up just flying away and says she'll come back someday. The scene of her grave is cut from the series finale for obvious reasons, but in turn makes it seems like Shadow died in the previous episode. Good shit.

If you made it here. Good lord. Uh. I love my son he has every disease. He's so cute here I want to throw him at a wall.

Watch Love Live it's really good please just watch it. And then watch LL Sunshine because it's even better.

Hey fellas!

So quick update, motivation has been lacking for AM recently due to just life stuff. So for now the main story/comic is gonna chill till I’m ready to work on it again ^^

Patreon will still be getting exclusive arts/fun lil mini comics. In addition I’ll post the Finale Animatic in its current state on there as a sneak peak. However, for here, I’ll be sticking to ask inspired art and shitposting as I feel like it ;]

To clarify, the comic is not cancel, nor is this really a hiatus. Just a:

“we’re going fun goofy shit while my brain decompresses from intense comic production”

Forcing myself hasn’t really produced the quality I’m after, to the point I can’t even write normal dialogue… it was bad, fellas, real bad. So I’m taking a step back and gonna do transformers stuff and let my brain refresh those creative cat juices! What I was making wasn’t up to par, and I’ll be DAMNED if I let quality dip for sake of production. We ain’t Pokémon Scarlet and Violet.

Anyways that’s all! Not a big deal, just a slowing down for a while and letting the soil gather its nutrients back by planting some different crops ^^

[hot-claws-420]

OOC: kinda also want to get into Lancer RP posting, but I'm not sure how. you're really good at this so 8 want to ask two questions:

how do you keep track of all the interlocking story arcs going on at once? do some of you know each other IRL or what?

is it cringe to bring in a homebrew license? because I came up with a weird striker/support I call the HORUS Unicorn and kinda want to bring it in, but that might be *too* weird.

OOC:

I keep track of storylines by having the characters rotating in my brain constantly.

On a more serious note many of the people in the community have become really good online friends of mine and we talk on discord quite a lot and plan some of our stuff there. But those I don't know on discord I speak to over Tumblr dms. Speaking OOC about intent in a storyline can really help things flow! If you're scared to dm someone just send an ask first but I've found that the vast majority of people here are chill. My DMs are always open as long as people are nicies to me! Lol

On the topic of homebrew, pretty much everyone i know is ok with it. As long as you're open to friendly balancing critique if you try to actively use it mechanically most people will be down to roll with it.

My friend @corsair-news-alliance has an absolute PEAK homebrew LCP, as do a couple of my other friends in the community. I am very big on encouraging that type of creativity!!!

But yeah all in all just hop in!! We don't bite!!! I have a couple of relatively big? blogs in SINGED and Rosie so I can answer questions and stuff but like. I got my start by just jumping in and shitposting with Rosie!! It's very fun!!!

Also DJJDJDJDJFIF thank you for the compliment I try djfkfkfjf

About "Tweets aren't canon"

One misconception that one seems to be nearly guaranteed to see brought up by someone whenever discussing Undertale/Deltarune lore with people who are not particularly invested in it is that "Toby Fox said tweets weren't canon".

And, when you first hear it, it actually sounds quite convincing, because this tweet is in fact real and does seem to say that.

So... What's actually going on here with tweets and with this one in particular ?

The actual status of tweets

Before mentioning what's really going on with that specific tweet, i'd like to lay some groundwork first.

For instance, regarding the fact that this tweet dates back from November 2016. And that if the tweet were to be taken seriously, it would mean that no tweets especially after that date are to be treated as canon.

Something that is rather explicitely not the case.

There are several examples for this, although the Gaster tweets which introduced us to Deltarune and directly link up to the game's "Goner Maker" introduction sequence are i would say prime offenders.

Here in these tweets, we are not yet connected, then we are given a way to connect.

Then, we pick this back up where we left it in Deltarune, where we are then asked wether the connection was a success.

This has of course been pointed out to Toby (although he never responded to those messages), and yet it did not prevent him from re-doing the exact same thing a few years later for chapter 2.

In short, the situation is that, to this day, Toby Fox still purposely uses tweets in order to provide important canon-accurate information about his games, with the Spamton Q&A as recently as last year.

In light of that, using that one tweet to say that any information coming from tweets is invalid just can't be right... So one might wonder :

But then, why did Toby say that ?

The problem comes from the fact that this quote is usually cropped like this when people try to share it around :

Which is greatly misleading !

Obviously, Toby Fox's popularity comes mainly from Undertale and later Deltarune. Due to this, and due to the majority of the fandom nowadays being teenagers, many in the fandom are not aware that ever since his own teenage years, Toby Fox has been for the lack of a better term, a massive shitposter. A habit that only started to die out after Undertale's release and in the year that followed. (Though he still shows glimpses of it from time to time)

I mean, we are talking about the person who kept on posting memes on twitter for nearly a decade and who made "a goast poot on u" at the end of the Earthbound Halloween Hack, his first semi-serious game project.

Why ?

Because he's just that kind of "funny guy" and felt like it. His words, not mine.

This was, up until not so long ago, the kind of person that Toby was online.

When taking all this into account and looking back at the un-cropped version of that quote, it becomes pretty obvious what's going on here.

Toby Fox found a bootleg nursery rhyme video of Undertale characters, found that hilarious (As the "funny guy" that he is), and decided to make a shitpost about it. Joking about how this weird thing that he found, right here, was the peak of official Undertale material and might just be more canon in his book than the kickstarter or tweets were.

The post that started this whole thing in the first place was just that, a shitpost, a joke, not something that Toby ever actually meant. Which honestly should have been pretty obvious in the first place, i mean, this is still a post about Toby trolling bootleg nursery rhymes, people. It wasn't meant to be taken seriously...

Besides, that tweet's statement would have been self-contradictory anyways. If tweets weren't canon, then this tweet would not be canon either, etc... Leading to one of those silly paradoxical loops rather than to an actual statement about tweet canonicity.

So then, that brings the question : Why ?

Why do so many people still claim that tweets aren't canon ?

The reason is likely the same as the reason why this misconception was created in the first place : It is a rope to cling on to for some people to defend certain headcanons that Toby had debunked via tweets.

Because yes, between late 2015 and late 2016 Toby used to once in a while answer a question about the lore of the game on tweeter. Leaving some people with their headcanons turning out to be wrong.

(A few examples of headcanons that Toby denied on twitter were that Undyne killed the green soul human, or that ghost monsters used to be humans, for example.)

It was some of those people, in the first place, who started cropping this tweet to make it seem like their headcanons were still on the table and started the mess in the first place.

This rumor, at its origins, was not just a mere misconception but rather a deliberate attempt at misinformation from some fans that weren't happy with the way Toby had taken the game, which is unfortunately still being shared around to this day due to how sensible it seems at first sight.

Sherlock SHITPOST Here’s how I’d fix magically fix bbc Sherlock in a magic world where moffat threw s1-s4 scripts at me… Pt 1???

- We’re keeping the cozy feeling of the pilot. Also that was PEAK fluffy Ben hair.

- WE ARE NOT HAVING BACK TO BACK MAJOR STORYBUILDING EPISODES. where bbc fucked up is they made these episodes way too long, and couldn’t have a longer season to pace it out better. ALSO, I feel og acd Sherlock worked to begin with because it had a more ,”mystery of the week” kind of feel.

- In my Sherlock, I’m making the episodes 60 minutes long and each will have an individual mystery each episode that audiences can actually follow along with.

- Johns going to the damn er. Hes a combats trauma doc??? Are we being for real Moffat?? You stuck him in a clinic for work??

- Sherlock smokes weed as an alternative :) to narcotics

-Mycroft and Sherlock like each other , but have frequent arguments.

-making Adler an opera singer again

- Sherlock has got a million chem degrees on his wall. A few from Barts and that’s why he has access to the lab there. He has some sort of connection from his undergrad/postgrad at the school.

- I’m slow burning Johnlock, but it’s happening. Butttttt, this may be controversial, I’d definitely let Sherlock and Irene hook up at some point ….

- Sherlock gets more time with dogs for cases. Don’t know if we adopting or if lestrad just has a dog on the scene that Sherlock likes more often there.

-no secret sister, or sad sherlolly, or saw 221, or playing with your heart that moriarty it back.

I’m losing my mind goodnight fucks

[epicsause-official]

please elaborate on junko enoshima being george bush because i am so invested and would love to fully see the vision here

im glad you asked. but before we start, some disclaimers: - this will discuss 9/11 conspiracies, the bush and obama administrations and danganronpa (all three games) spoilers -i gotta say that just because i assert some political conclusion is to be derived from the games doesnt mean i agree with it. im not a 9/11 conspiracist nor do i think politics is some meaningless theatre controlled by the deep state. the theory is just the conclusions one would derive from the games if they looked at it from the "junko is george bush" perspective. - this theory is one big shitpost. i dont actually believe danganronpa is about john kerry, but its entertaining to pretend it somehow secretly is.

alright. so the junko enoshima is george bush theory hinges on the assumption that junko's plan that started the plot of the games (that is, orchestrating the original tragedy of hpa by killing the student council, and using the despair of that event to plunge the world into unrest) is meant to allude to the 9/11 truther conspiracy perspective, which asserts that the then george bush-led us government staged the 9/11 terrorist attacks in order to justify the us invasion of iraq. now this may seem as a stretch, but when you look at the finer details, the critiques of varioud aspects of the bush administration become more apparent. for starters, junko's destabilization of hopes peak academy could be seen as an allegory for bush's No Child Left Behind act, which according to many critics overall damaged the us school system. during the tragedy, junko worked close with her sister, mukuro ikusaba, the ultimate soldier; while being the potus, george bush obviously lead the us miltary, which many say is one of if not the most powerful in the world. in the danganronpa games, junko interacts with the characters primarily through monokuma, an animatronic who acts as the judge, jury and executioner in the game's class trials. thus, through a puppet junko has control over the courts. this is a jab at bush vs gore, a supreme court case that many felt bush only won because the justices at the time were biased towards him. finaly, the biggest clue comes from the thing that took down junko in the 6th trial of thh: hope. the same word used in the iconic posters of barack obama, the president proceeding george w bush.

now with thh, this is where the story would end. but what drv3 offers to the george bush thoery is fascinaing in its own right. the themes of the game become those of feeling betrayed by the obama admin and the political system as a whole. to recap, the main reveal of v3 is that danganronpa is an in-universe tv show running for 53 installments, each one continuing the fight between hope and despair witch no clear conclusion, all while the killing games also continue. the mastermind of v3, tsumugi shirogane, stands for neither hope nor despair, but continuing the danganronpa franchise. in the junko is bush framework, the message of the game becomes clear: tsumugi is meant to be a deep-state like figure controlling both major parties, and no meaningful change will come as a result of that. i mean, tsumugi is beaten when the survivors refuse to vote between hope and despair, knowing both outcomes benefit tsumugi, so the message of both parties serving one deep state is obvious.

knowing what we know now, through the image of the future foundation throughout the games we see a deteriorating trust in the obama administration. in sdr2, we see the future foundation failing to prevent another killing game, but still fighing the alter ego junko and saving the remnant survivors. at this point, there is still trust in the obama admin, but they are shown to be slow in delivering change due to the circumstances around them. in v3, this trust is gone, as makoto is shown to be but a character written by tsumugi used to perpetuate the killing game in trial 6, or as we established, a puppet of the deep state.

in conclusion, nagito komaeda is the "i got a crush on obama" girl.

[real-fire-emblem-takes]

going here because i have a post cooking about this but it isnt ready yet. anyway, FEHs writing has fucked over a lot of characters but i will genuinely never forgive them for KAREL especially. like hoooly shit dude. masterclass in scooping out every interesting/compelling piece of his character in fe7 out with a spoon and turning out another murder memeslop character like what happened with henry in awakening's peak. i will admit his penchant for gay innuendo in heroes is very funny but thats not the point rn.

this is part of a wider issue i have with general Discussion about FE7 karel really but its just... incredibly bizarre in heroes especially. as a whole he's written to be a fair bit more outwardly aggressive than he is in FE7 (the fact he all but threatens to kill the summoner for no real reason multiple times is esp bonkers to me considering the parallels you can draw to how he acts towards both mark and lucius, neither of whom he's all that nasty with relatively speaking), and for some reason they also really hone in on the mentions he makes of the "feast" in pale flower of darkness... which is the only time he ever makes any use of the term in his home game. exactly twice at that. but it's all he can talk about in heroes? it is bizarre.

and like. i don't know. it's genuinely very sad to me that any trace of the kindness and gentleness he shows to lucius and karla especially is just Gone. and for what reason? genuinely, why? his level 40 quote is so strange for this reason because making it essentially a rehash of his A support with lucius wouldve been the easiest shit in the world and i would've been fine with it. but nah, we get. checks notes. a conversation where karel threatens to kill the summoner again. for no real reason?

i'm realizing now this is getting really long for a tumblr ask on a half-shitpost blog, so i apologize. it's just a topic i get very passionate about very quickly. TLDR: When i get that fucking owl.

[malleusmaleficent]

took a look at thorfinn karlsefni stuff here on tumblr just for funsies (vinland saga is peak btw go watch/read it) and i was pretty stunned at the differences between the sorts of stuff people make for thorfinn vs. the sorts of stuff people make for killua zoldyck of HxH

because their arcs are insanely similar right? children that became murderers against their will, became jaded and definitely sort of insane to cope with it, eventually sobers up and decides to change into a kinder and more caring person

like it's nearly a 1:1 comparison, broadly speaking

but all the fan content for killua is cutesy stuff with the odd thoughtful character study here and there and occasionally a few shit posts (dont mean to sound demeaning here i love cutesy HxH shit im just autistic and too tired to find a better way of putting this)

for thorfinn though like half of it is shitposts and like another 30% of it are sober reflections on his character

one has to ask why

i imagine it comes down to a few things:

1. packaging- we the audience are explicitly shown again and again that killua is cute and childlike, while for thorfinn it's always portrayed as explicitly negative and deeply troubling

2. target audiences- chances are the sorts of people interested in making cute stuff of their favorite characters are not as likely to check out vinland saga as they are HxH

3. maybe some other thing idk im tired, if you can think of another reason why that might be lmk cause i do think it's interesting

Well, I made a few bad decisions and stayed up half the night making questionable Pokemon fusions, because I go down strange rabbit holes when I'm bored.

Anyway, I thought it'd be funny to make a 'highlights' compilation of my madness. Proceed with caution on this dangerous and mildly amusing journey of sleep-deprived discovery.

The very first thing I discovered was that Gloom fused with anything is hilarious and I will not be arguing about that.

Just look at these idiots. Peak shitpost material.

There were a bunch that were actually cute, Goomy fusions in particular.

Goobasaur NEEDS to be a starter this instant. Gooblast is just here for the lols.

Goreeffa and Clebyss are like the two mean girls from a classic indie coming-of-age movie. Goreeffa's the one who gets pitted against the quirky MC for no apparent reason, and Clebyss ain't too bright. (We all know she's just here to vibe.)

Moving down the list, Feeboot is very silly and I would die for Drudsprout. It looks like a mook from a classic side-scrolling arcade game or 90s rpg.

Anything fused with Cosmog is also super cute, and that isn't profile pic bias, I swear. (Ik I made more than one Bulbasaur fusion. Can you really blame me?)

Hoobat. Must I say more?

Then we have a few of the... stranger ones, including an aquatic reptilian, a shady search engine, a goth spider, Typhlosion 2.0, a deer who ate a bee and is now in process of becoming one, and another word for schmenis

Google seems particularly poignant, since Smeargle's whole gimmick is that it 'tracks data' from other Pokemon by copying their moves. (Don't come at me, Google. For legal reasons this is a joke.)

This one's just unfortunate.

A few went absolutely hard, though, which was a pleasant surprise.

Lastly but not leastly we have the worst of the worst, the creme de la creme, the haunter of my nightmares, the most reprehensible man in the entire universe:

That will be all folks. Thank you for your time.

Hmmmmm...autism (I'd say don't ask but from what I can tell I'll just get a nod or smth /lh)

cool

nononononononono (shaking my head)

what it seemed like to my friends when I fixated on finding Hidenori Tokuyama's discography and searched through every possible nook and cranny (I'm still holding out hope for the puresoul album...and Gift and FakeRing (from Aiuta)...and Future (from Stray Child - the 2nd eroica album),, and ano hi no kimi ni..- ok yeah that's it I have everything else 👍)

Ohgod there's two of them.

DAMN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! OKAY!!! SLAY 🙏 you go, Shinnosuke, that was really cool

omg this takes me back..Gavv 🙏 (<- as in my first KR show LMAO...and takes me back to December ig) starts singing the crab Granute song (linking it bc I genuinely love that song LMAO) also saying sings it was a joke at first but I did end up listening to it and singing it...banger 🕺 ok ENOUGH- thank you Adri for pulling me out of the song looping cause I kinda forgot I was watching the episode 😭 bruh

HEARD THE FIGHT OST PLAYING AND VERBALLY WENT "PEAK!!! BANGER BANGER BANGER BANGER" I really like this song can you tell... ngl!! it has the vibes of Ghost's opening :0 which I also really liked,, I'm bad at picking up on genres but whatever it is, it scratches my brain (jrock/jpop I guess? but I specifically mean that vocal style mixed with that,, early 2010s vibes 😭 idk how to describe it but that's the vibes it gives me)... Ok I caught myself listening to the op on loop lmao uhhhhh let's finish this episode shall we 🥹

his (my) ass is NOT paying attention /lh /hj

anyways. Chase you're cool 👍 I like him already and it's 100% bc of the information I know about his character arc already. I'm just so excited to witness it and get happy whenever he shows up on screen.

Wait 😭...I thought I was already on episode 4- it took me THIS long to watch one episode? my brain......spreading misinformation (told Adri I was on ep 4 in dms but I guess it was ep 3 still...NOW I am on ep 4)

THE LITTLE KISS WAS SO CUTE 😭 "Vegas!" *mwah*

LMAOOOOOOOOOOO

HE'S SO CUTE!!!!!!!! LOOK AT HIM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! LITTLE GUY!!!!!!!!!!!!! (grownass man)

Ok so my dad called me while I was watching the ep and he's still on the line as he searches for stuff in the store, so I can't continue watching for now. I'm unsure if it was the Drive opening that reminded me of it, or if it just started playing in my head, but this Hidenori Tokuyama's song has been on loop in my head for like 8 mins now someone please turn it off /lh /hj

sh-shadow...Yagur-//SHOT

Chase is so

yeah

HE'S SO CUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUTE

Ok wait..picture limit lmao I'm gonna make another post

what are your thoughts on more rarepair undertaker ships… like lautaker (lau x undertaker) and wolftaker (wolfram x undertaker)

Lautaker is loltaker. Day six. Two chaotic neutral trolls in love, it's a beautiful thing. This is probably my third fav undertaker ship just for the pure shitposting energy those two bring. I would love to write them but I think the levels of fuckery might break my brain and prevent me from being serious ever again.

Wolftaker I had not even heard of. no thoughts, head empty.

Ryan Stoker x Undertaker is one I can get behind, excellent suggestion I tip my hat to you. Peak "medical malpractice, not to me, not if it's you".

Also Abberline x Undertaker. Sebastian was hella jealous of Abberline. This moment is actually incredible, why is Sebastian so bothered by some rando being effortlessly funny???

I am always going to be first and foremost a ClaudiaTaker hoe but we are starving out here. Grelletaker is sweet, underthello as bitter exes cracks me up, sebtaker is growing on me. Your art of Sebastian picking Undertaker up by his antenna is 👌👌👌👌 ya cooked, chef's kiss, adorable, flowers tossed your way. Never thought that ship would be cute to me but there you go, that's the power of fanart.
