Oooh. The plot thickens.

*Really needs to watch the 6 or so episodes he has which he wont watch until subbed... or take the files to work and beg the resident French speakers to translate :p *

Wow, I just heard that Ep 64 (which aired in France today) is "Sonic vs. Shadow" and apparently Super Sonic and Super Shadow fight! Maybe the footage from the second Japanese opening for last season was intended to be used for this episode?
Can't wait to see shots of this one :]

That would be impossible since that was drawn up a year or so before they knew that episode would exist.

Don't anybody get too excited. I hear tell that the C-team responsible for Episode 27's Sonic/Knuckles Vs. Chaos 0 slugfest animated the fight.

...

Yes, you should be worried.

I'd just heard about that too <_<
Why couldn't they get one of the decent animation teams to do that one? It's a Super Sonic episode for crying out loud!

Dang, after the way they ruined that battle, I thought no one would ever let them near the franchise again.

I'm almost afraid to see it now...

Almost.

Indeed. It reminded me of Ron Lim art.... **Dies**

I'll have to retract my earlier statement. Having seen both #63 "Base of Mettarex" and #64 "Sonic Vs. Shadow", I can safely say that 64's quality, while not up there with the best Sonic X has to offer (26 & 58, for example), isn't quite as bad as it was made out to be. The only gripe is that the battle between Super Sonic and Super Shadow doesn't quite live up to its potential (they crash through some walls and throw a few punches). Par for the course.

Actually, episode 63 has the better team animating it: nice, fluid movement during the action scenes and sharp, on-model characters.

That was my thought exactly when I saw that. I noticed it even more when I played the episode slowly in order to make my regular summary and translation back there at the Moogle Cavern...

Just caught up with the latest subbed eps bringing me to episode 60.

I really enjoyed 58 and 59, to see Cream and Tails both flying in one ep does my heart good, especially as 58 was a Team Jubilee character building ep and had their fly formation and Team Blast :D

And Cream pwned the Monkey Metalex with Cheese :D

59 rocked because of Chaotix. Also like the way Cosmo accuses Sonic and Chaotix of being egotists when their testosterone contest is getting too out of hand.

*Has a screen cap of Charmee saying "Nothing stops Vector once he goes nuts!" and shall abuse it to tease our glorious webmaster* :D

Unfortunately, Ive STILL only seen 53, but thats having dial-up and your one source going *eck* for the time being!

Anyway, from screenshots & SRT files Ive looked at Cream seems much more active this time around. She's much more part of the team than before.

Also watch her hurl Cheese at foes!

This season is awesome... 12 episodes and no bad episode, unlike the first season. ^^

I watched #64 and didnt see ANYTHING strage withe the animation, just the 2 scenes with Sonic vs. the Metarex wasnt perfectly draw, but the animations was very fluent. And I liked the Super Hedgehogs part.

I cant wait for #65 to #78! @_@

So new Sonic X has started up again, this episode see's the Chaotix stop by for some random repairs. And Vector is suddenly obsessed with getting Tails and Cosmo together, with all sorts of wacky hijinx involved, one of which is Vector prophesizing a fantasy meeting between Tails and Cosmo featuring the best image of Tails ever:

At the end of the ep Tails and Cosmo are all smitten and whatnot. So, if Furry couplings caused you a headache before, Fox-boy and Plant-girl?

Sigh, they grow up SO fast....*sniff*

Too bad the style used in that fantasy sequence isn't the primary one for the series...Man, THAT would make an awesome Sonic anime...

Btw, not sure if this has been asked yet, but one question has been bugging the heck out of me...

How exactly did Japan not end up getting these new episodes first? I've noticed that Jp. screens are pretty much impossible to come by right now. Not that I'm complaining or anything (heck, I still gotta see the rest of the first series :p ), just really curious. Any ideas? Or did I make a wrong observation? <<;

BIG Surprise for episode 67

What. The. Hell.

I thought the 'new' intro was the surprise Solly mentioned (Sonic Drive sung in french + 2nd Japanese opening = WHOAH), but the way episode 67 ends is completely out of left field.

In a nutshell:

Spoilers (Select To Read)
Chris gets cut down by the Mettalex general and Cosmo imprisoned, causing Sonic to go 'Shadow' on two lesser Mettalex:
Pic 1
Pic 2

I suppose it might have something to do with the fake 'dark' emeralds lying about underneath. Can anyone who understands french elaborate?

We all had to see this one coming though...come on...in almost all the series, the good guy has to take a turn down the dark path sometime...shocking yes, shockingly cool in a way...maybe...thank goodness Sonic doesn't look like Anankin in Ep. 3...

Despite natively speaking French, that one part with black Sonic confused me as well. All I can tell is that Sonic ended up letting hate and anger control him. (Thanks to Eggman for clearing that up in the episode. "Sonic, I do not want to see you controlled by your hate and anger.")

It could be the same 'anime' effect we've seen with Knuckles in #3 and Amy in #52, establishing extreme anger (an anime staple). Though this time there seems to be more to it than that.

Holy crap; didn't see that coming! O_o

Though, guess it is about time that things've gotten at least a little darker.

Also, Chaos' method of absorbing the emeralds comes to mind....

Hmmm... They did play Chaos' music theme right around then as well.

Wow, seriously? Oo

Dang, this brings to mind a pic I did years back of a rendition of if Sonic absorbed all of the Emeralds' energy...

Makes me wonder what really WOULD happen...

Holy crap, Tails is pimped out! XD

Man, they're really pushing this Tails/Cosmo thing, aren't they?....And my God, his head is huge in that second screen.

Though, it is kinda neat that the animators seem to be exploring various styles like this, even if they are just fantasy sequences (well, I'm assuming that one is a fantasy sequence...either that or someone's stoned as heck :p ...)

Seriously though...that is so cool! Tails looks cool in his new duds! Seems he's been taking lessons from P-Diddy...I'll try to find a pic that conveys my feelings better...

I have to wait till Sept to see 'em, or until the site with them on starts to work again! ^^;

Interesting.A Dark Sonic, Tails and Cosmo (here hoping they end up like Kim and Ron from " So the drama" movie) and Shadow get a new human girl to be angst about. Look like this season keep getting better and better.:thumbsup

Just wondering, but where do you get these episodes? Is it against the rules like ROMs?

It's against the rules to link to them directly. If you want them you'll have to find some other means.

Darn you SatAm SONIC, you've sent me into a giggle fit for the rest of the day with those pictures (which remind me strongly of Fabio).

This plot sounds... interesting. I mean,

Spoilers (Select To Read)
we've all probably seen "Dark Sonic" characters about a billion times, but now it's actually in the show... I wonder if it could work the other way around too? And Chris getting axed is a surprise.

I should probably censor that. Curses for my only source of episodes being down, otherwise I'd actually have an opinion. =_=

Im glad this new season has more plot than the old one, they're coming up with better ideas to make it more interesting. The creators must have given out surveys to the people to ask what they want and thats just what they got.

Okay, Chris gets stabbed. Sooo... then what? Are they dragging him around while he recovers, or is that it, and Chris dies? Just, very, very suddenly?

Well, it's assumed he's stabbed. We see no visible wound, only something that looks like a fleck of blood splatter against a white background. He magically feels better by the end of the ep.

Okay...they bring her around for a few episodes then axe her...so that means they'll bring her back for Season 3 just like Shadow!

Am I the only one who thinks it looks like they're setting up Cosmo to die toward the end of the season?

Maybe I'm crazy, but I'm skeptical about them deciding to give Tails a permanent love interest. I think at the least she'll leave.
