Sonic Boom (2014)
Hillarious, great fun, not too serious and relaxing.
Dr Eggman is not that evil, they all live on an island together. Dr Eggman is always attacking the village, but he never tries to 'robotosize' people like he often does in other series and games (pretty dark for a kids show). I forget why he even attacks the village all the time, but I suppose it doesn't matter.
Unfoutunatly I have to revoke 1 star from the 10 as the creators do towards the end get a little lazy. They should really have a steady stream of new characters and different robots. But it also makes for less lazy writing in that the writers come up with new and creative ideas for each episode, without merely relying on a new fancy looking enemy or robot, or shallow 1 use character. Inevitabley the ideas do kind of dry up. Eggman terrorises the village in a plethora of amusing and unexpected ways almost every episode. Also the explosions are lazy, they use the same animation for each, towards the end that is. Also they start breaking the forth wall a bit, but in a not very good way, degrading it to a bit of a pantomime.
Sonic Prime (2022)
Not funny, every episode on a cliff hanger, fraught with conflict
Its not the sonic i wanted. I watched the first few episodes, then just skipped to the end because I was upset at the characters not being friends. But still wanted to know what happens.
The first episode is nothing like what the rest of the three seasons are. And basically the whole of the three seasons are based around that thing.
Its got sonic underground vibes, at least the first part does. I feel the writers yank me about and don't let good relationships form between the characters. But that is what I watch these shows for. Not for politics, and conflict, but the banter between friends, this is awfully lacking here. Also i don't like knuckles, voice. I mean the voice actor has a cool voice, but I feel it does not fit with the character.
