Woo I am finally back if anyone even remembers me lol. I just finished downloading most of Sonic X downloads. I must say the series surprised me although some eps were fillers, however the series overall is well done and probably my most favorite sonic series to date.

Spoiler
I think the way they treated E-102 gamma's death and Shadow's death was excellent because while I am one of the few fans that actually cared about the robot, it seemed that his/her death in Sonic X provided a more dramatic ending to our e-102, beta and gamma dying as friends was beautiful.

Also in Sonic Adventure 2 game I actually didn't feel bad for Shadow's dying in the series, maybe it was because of the voice acting or maybe because the plot was at times ridiculous but Sonic X-38 ending to that adaptation not only fixed some of the plot holes but also made you sad for black hedgehog and I think thats something special.

In other note, I hope they don't bring Shadow back in the 2nd series even if they were to do a Sonic Heroes adaptation, it would ruin the ending of Sonic adventure 2 Adapatation and I think that anime team should be given free reign in shaping sonic heroes story. I am happy that its an alternate universe plot line which means that they can provide a better storytelling for Sonic Heroes then what sonic team did for that game -_-. Also I can't wait to Metal Sonic: D.

On a special note, I like to thank Neoremington for the reviews, I been using them for downloading eps that I thought would be good enough to watch, thanks

Quick question: Was this meant for the US thread, or are you referring to the Japanese episodes?

If so, surely you would know that Shadow is infact dead and now a ghost, we get confirmation in episode 50 I believe, when he and Maria hold hands, and the ARK springs to life, helping Tails and friends get home while Sonic and the human decide to destroy two worlds to preserve their friendship.

Actually I am downloading the japanese eps but I didn't know that fact since some downloads are taking too long and some won't work so I am basically piecing them together :nn; . Yes I know Shadow is dead but I didn't know he was a ghost interesting, I am glad to hear that he won't be coming back in Sonic Heroes adapation*sighs in happiness*.

Don't assume there is a Sonic Heroes adaption, that's just speculation. No one's confirmed a thing.

Even still, no one can guarantee that a Shadow Clone wont make an appearance, as there were quite a few of them running around, but at least it would be a dead cert that the real Shadow is well, dead.

I reckon if they did a Sonic Heroes adaption they'd opt for the same path as the Sonic Battle one and just do a story roughly based upon it, but not actually following the game at all.

Well I always thought the shadow in Sonic Heroes was a robot copy but anyway at least he is resting in peace*shrugs*. Yes it was mere guess on my part but with sonic adventure series adapation and battle, it seemed fair to expect them to make a Heroes adapation later,I want metal sonic damn it doesn't matter heroes adaptation or not :b . Is it a fair bet to say that the next one will take place on the earth again or it hasn't been confirmed yet.

It's really nice my reviews are helping people. Brings a tear to my eye, really. Tear of happiness, that is.

Oooh, and thank you for the links to the download, Sam!

[downloads songs for listening later] Much appreciated, lady Samanfur ^_^

Wish I could read kanji (or Japanese for that matter :P)...is that page supposed to be a time schedule or something?

Yea. It appears to be a Japanese station with Sonic X going up to Ep 39.

Thankies!^^ You are a very nice person, lady Samanfur. I've been looking for these! Getting back on topic though, what planet do you think this will take place on this time around? I'm hoping for Sonic's homeworld, and an actual name for it! All we know is that it's "Sonic's World", they never really mention the name "Mobius". What do you think a good name for the planet would be?^^

Meh, as long as it isn't cheesy or a name that's been used hundreds of times, anything could work for it. Wouldn't mind it being called "Freedom" or "Mobius", though...heck, if there's a need to even give the planet a name.
After all, plenty of games out there make do without a name for their world (the characters of FF VII just called theirs "the planet") 😛

I believe it was implied that was Earth, though, judging from the scene where that old guy was explaining the Lifestream having a very similar solar system AND from Sephy's Supernova (and how the planets it "obliterates" are from OUR solar system - I believe the only planets left untouched would be Uranus and Mars).

Well, actually, one of the posters/promo pages for Advent Children stated the planet's name was "Gaea" (wow, how original, eh? :P). Not sure if that's still true, or if it's even stated in the movie, but anyway...(I'll try to find the page).

Finally listened to the two songs; some really pretty tunes there. Any idea where a lyrics page could be found, btw?

[gets urge to run around state in search of soundtrack <_<]

They use the name "Gaia" pretty often in the Final Fantasy games, and in the movie.

I think the only time the planet itself was referred to as Gaia was Final Fantasy 9 (Terra and Gaia), in Final Fantasy 7 I believe it was speaking about the Life-stream, in the same way the movie refers to Gaia as the life-force of the planet, which fights the phantoms.

Really? If you can then please do so. That will be of much help again, Sam. Thanks.

I'll definitely download them once you upload it. I always wanted a chance to get an MP3 of those two themes.

Much thanks again, Sam. As I already said this is of much help for me. Soon I'll have an MP3 of these three songs, once I'm done downloading them, which I'm doing right now as we speak.

Oh, MUEY MUEY, I love you, Samanfur!! XD [smacked for Jar Jar reference]
Definitely a real treat to be checking these songs out; be hearing most of these for the very first time ^^;

..Man, I have got to track down the albums one of these days oo;...[patiently waits for the day the local gamestore imports in Sonic X soundtracks...]

I have no information about it, it seems to include a new character and a mecha design.

That character looks awfully like Lumina to me...

 
(@manaita)
Posts: 28

Yeah, she is similar to Lumina.
Her name accidental to the character is "COSMO".

And, the name of the mecha is "Blue Typhoon".
I suppose that may be the weapon of Sonic side, because the name has "Blue".

Wow.

Typhoon? Maybe a mecha designed by Tails.

 
(@manaita)

Maybe. The front top part of Typhoon seems like a road in front of Tails's house in SA, or a road in front of Chuck's workshop in Sonic X.
It might be a airstrip for X-Tornado.

Hm, I wonder if the newer designs there are for the next series, or stuff that was canned :/

Either way, the 'Blue Typhoon' looks like Tails' answer to the Egg Carrier (geez, how long did it take to make THAT thing, then?!)...

Oh dear... I really hope that is concept art from the original series, with a few designs which went un-used. I don't like the brat being in the same pile of sheets as stuff which might feature in series 2...

That's what I think of it: unused character designs for characters and props that never came to be and/or were dropped. But that doesn't mean it can't be looked into again when this mystery new season finally gets off the ground.

You'd think after a year of having the rights to make another 13 episodes that they would have at least finished enough to give some teasers and such.

I mean, I remember getting info about Gundam SEED Destiny while the original series was still airing (though, admitedly all we had was "a new season will be airing from the first week of September" and then started getting screens, concept sketches as little as 4 months later, and a video of the intro about 8 months after announcement.

With Sonic X, we're already at the 8 month mark and still haven't heard anything...

Has anyone tried running that Auction page through a translator? I tried it but all I got was random symbols.

I posted the link elsewhere and everyone's saying it's fake cos they don't know what it is. XD

I tried translating the page through Google and this is what I got for the final result here.

It looks like some kind of bid to me for that concept art.

Thanks Sam, you're a genius! Though does anyone have the third ending theme? The one that's a bit rock and starts off with a basic animation of Sonic until he gets refined right up to Sonic X appearance?

For people who were wondering where to get the soundtrack (which includes Sonic Drive and Mirai, but unfortunately not the other stuff Sam uploaded), I got my copy online from YesAsia.com. Their shipping seemed pretty reasonable and as far as I can tell the CD's legit (given that I don't read Japanese!) - it had adverts for the official DVDs and some toys etc. on the inner sleeve.

The CD has most of the incidental music for each episode, including Scream Test (yay!) and themes for the S-Team, Shadow, the Master Emerald, Eggman-sama, the X Tornado etc.

Hope this isn't too far off-topic,

DW

All I have to say is FINALLY!!! At long last some news about the mysterious 26 new episodes of SX! Now all we have to do is hope and pray that Chris is not in these new episodes.

Well on the bright side, Cosmo is now going to appear, which means they are no longer shy about introducing furry (or at least non-human) original characters. Also interesting as Cosmo looks sort of like Void and Lumina.

Also, that final scene probably means Sonic Heroes... and that Shadow is returning...

Though I have to wonder WHY THE HELL ARE THEY BOTHERING HAVING ROUGE FIND HIM WHEN ALL OF THEIR CHARACTER INTERACTION SCENES WERE STOLEN BY THAT HUMAN BRAT!

Not only is Chris's return unneccesary, it is also illogical, unless he is an adult in this new series, which is doubtful.

But at least we have official information on the new Sonic X series. Wonder when it will run...

I'm guessing around mid-year '05 in Japan. Maybe sometime in April.

I doubt it'd be that early if this is the first news we're getting of it, this time next year is the earliest I can imagine it surfacing. Unless they lock people into the development room like they did with the Sonic Xtreme guys and girls.

well, THIS is a turn up for the books innit!?

i was expecting info next month, same as the season1 info popped up last January.

The first link doesnt work, so I used Manaita's link.

I dont mean to spoil anyones hopes but...

1] why would TMS auction/sell designs of Cosmo/Blue typhoon BEFORE the series they appear in is aired??

2] where did this info come from? Like I said, the first posted link doesnt work. And I dont remember seing anything on that on manaita's site either. Just wondering!!

Im translating the script from manaits site to english via: babelfish. If anyone wants I can PM/email it to them when its finished. Or post it here...can I do that?

as for chris, going by the stargate thing at the end of ep52. I would say it seems pretty likely that Chris wil reappear.

theory:
Chris uses the stargate to perform CC. It sends him to sonics world..BUT...say a few days/months after Sonic returned home.

as for chris family....*shrugs* ...good question! *puts thinking cap on*

**1 week till Sonic X 40 airs in the UK....jan 1st!!!

EDIT:
hope this is OK, but heres the translated version. Translated using Google. [Hope you dont mind Manaita.]
Translated script.
