>>136053481>The islands theory doesn't pretend that.It absolutely does. You can't have most of your planetary population relegated to islands because of spacing issues and the usual issues that islands have supporting populations that are too large. And Mobians have even wider levels of genetic diversity than humans do, which would make things worse.
>the islands theory doesn't contradict that either.It absolutely does.
>And it's not strictly, it's mostly.The exact quote from TailsTube is almost exactly that "X people live here, and Y people live here". There is no way to split that and make it so that only a nebulous 'majority' lives on islands.
>It's where they comes from. They are not "bound". and the classic game set the origin of Sonic, Tails and Knuckles on Islands too.The only mentions of Islands that those characters come from are Christmas Island (which is no longer considered Sonic's birthplace per SoJ), West Side Island (which was never a home to Tails, merely his place of birth), and Angel Island, which Knuckles is duty-bound and mandate-shackled to never leave.
>Again, not really in contradiction with "humans and Mobians have always lived on the same planet".That is not the point being made. See point 1.
>Wait, wouldn't the "two words" theory actually imply that there should be less mobians everywhere and humans less used to seeing them?Both theories are shit for the exact same reasons. The "Islands theory" is just obnoxious, because it's still clearly Iizuka trying to be a spiteful bitch over Two Worlds getting nuked.
