I’m absolutely convinced that there’s a tie between being neurodivergent and liking Sonic, and I think it has to do with the implicit characterization of most of the characters being neurodivergent themselves.

Sonic himself is very commonly written with ADHD. I’ve seen a lot of headcanons that have an Autistic!Shadow and I really like that analysis just looking at him and his fanon (and superior) characterization. I feel like it fits. I feel like Tails is neurodivergent, but I haven’t seen enough of him as a main character in fics to know for sure what he has.

Also, funny guys make brain go brrrrr

I can’t think of any others off the top of my head, but I’m really curious to see if anybody else has noticed this trend. I’d love to hear any other headcanons you have or have heard!

#funny guy make brain go brrrrrrrr #I’ve also noticed with very limited data that neurodivergents are probably more likely to be obsessed with Sonic Frontiers #because they like the open world style #and also the positive stimulus provided by the kickass mind blowing music #and also the epic boss fights #sonic fandom #sonic the hedgehog #shadow the hedgehog #tails the fox #miles tails prower #sonic characters #sonic frontiers #sonic franchise #shadow the toddler the most iconic blorbo to ever blorbo #me when my blorbo is toddler size angsty teen lil man #blorbos #its the neurodivergency #neurodivergency #neurodivergent #adhd brain #adhd #autism
