#especially blaze and rouge (and tails and espio to a lesser extent) who sometimes get relegated to being the one with common sense

[sonic-adventure-3]

literally one of my favourite things about the sonic series is that all of the characters are overflowing with personality and immediately noticeable deeply warped worldviews. like a character with truly baseline “common sense” does not exist. not a single character that can play the straight man in every situation. and i love that! cause it makes for such memorable and recognizable characters in personality alone, and then you heap on masterful and iconic character design on top of that!!
