>>131917938When did the whole Sonic is trans meme started?
>>131924136>Knuckles' Jamaican clothes, hair, use of rap adjacent theme music in one of the games and now voice actorDon't get me wrong, I love Idris... but I knew his casting was only going to be fuel to the fire for the whole "Knuckles is black-coded" shit.
The same with guys claiming he should be Mesoamerican due to the SA Echidna backstory.
Whenever I read those comments, all I can think of is how the character was created in 1994 by Japanese people, who thought the Jamaican flag was a nice color combination for the character's shoes. Talk about projection.
>For Shadow and Rouge I don't know whyRouge is because the port of SA2B made her (and Knuckles') muzzle very dark (apparently that doesn't happen in regular SA2), thus she must be black.
Regarding Shadow, well, let's just say it was a bad idea to release a Happy Meal Toy at McDonald's with the "black" character playing basketball.
