![]() ![]() At least, that's what I figure ("OMG, that's the thing Sonic said in the Black Knight game"). The anime did a better job giving off a sense of momentum when it came to Sonic's speed and that show had the disadvantage of being given a smaller budget than most anime leading to more economical animation than what was common at the time. ![]() The characters look appealing and are expressive but budget limitations are holding this show back, especially when Sonic has to show off his super speed, where he looks more like he's jogging. The animation's okay given that it's a CGI TV show released in 2014. I'm not too big a fan of the character designs, especially Buff Knuckles, but they do look better than the Crash Bandicoot cast's redesigns in Crash of the Titans where the titular hero had an outdated mid-2000's appearance and only N. By no means a masterpiece of comedy and some of the jokes, mainly meta ones relating to his games, are ones you might have already heard on the Internet, hell, on Sonic's official Twitter page which has quite the sense of humour about these kinds of things, but fun. On its own merits, Sonic Boom is enjoyable. I've never played the infamous Rise of Lyric due to my defection from Nintendo to ultimately join the big boys over at PlayStation land but luckily, the TV show goes out of its way to distance itself from one of Sonic's biggest disasters since the 2006 game, which seems to have been all but declared non-canon to this universe. While I don't feel as strongly about this show as some other people might and, thanks to being a comedy-first show, is lacking in action, especially as somebody who binged most of the first two seasons of Sonic X back during a time when I was more obsessed with the Blue Blur, Sonic Boom is a decent cartoon. ![]()
