I love it, Ian really brought up a good point (not saying you didn’t) that she should love for the world and show love all around. Sonic will protect the world Tails will learn the world Knuckles will watch the world Amy will share goodness to the world THOUGH, it feels like she doesn’t have a core trait anymore, but I believe that they are just expanding the character and will go more into it, especially after Frontiers, Dream Team, and that Sonic Friends website thing.

And even if we write off that scene as just playful, Amy would slowly begin to just being interested in sonic as the games went on.

I think a simpler take would be that Amy loves nature and fell for Sonic for being a protector of it.

She still loves Sonic but also wants to focus the other thing she loves, similar to her Adventure 1 story.

She can still have her passion and be a dynamic, expressive character without that being dependent on Sonic. Character assassination was forcing her to be nothing but an obsessive stalker, and it screamed of bad writing or someone that doesn’t know how to write female characters. Amy has always had potential to be more than that, and I’m glad we might finally get to see that. I’ve been with this series from the beginning, so it’s nice to see her start to become actualized and have her own life that doesn’t revolve around a guy. Her story doesn’t need to do that. There is such a thing as having an unhealthy attachment to someone that can prevent you from growing as a person, and I feel like that’s where her character was stuck for a long time.

Amy was never an obsessive stalker, her chasing sonic was just a fun cat and mouse chase dynamic between the two that was only just them joking. It’s like how sonic and knuckles have their rivalry and how sonic tends to annoy him at times Literally all they’re doing is stripping away part of her character, Amy spreading her love for other and those around the world isn’t a new thing at all, she’s been doing this since the Dreamcast era. In sa1 she protected the flicky from getting captured by zero, her love of others managed to rub off onto gamma and start his character arc, and she’s stands up to sonic and butts in before his kills gamma. In sa2 she actually had a one to one talk with shadow and her empathy for humanity managed to rub off onto him and make him realise what his true promise to Maria actually was and thus completed his character arc. This is actually a big thing for Amy as a character since compare her to sonic through out that game all he did was just fight shadow as another enemy. And then in heroes she helped cream and big find chocola and froggy And that one scene where she says there’s no way out of marrying him is just her joking, besides the heroes team battles have bad writing anyway, rouge started a fight with the chaotix for treasure they weren’t even looking for yet she doesn’t get any flack for that so why does amy? The fact that Ian sees sonic and Amy’s dynamic as just a “will they won’t they” is honestly concerning, the answer is obviously no, sonic and Amy being an actual couple would ruing their dynamic The cat and mouse dynamic is just a thing between the two characters, let them joke a little

[@lucas.n.carvalho.artist]

I very much like how she is now because it feels like she has grown up, but still retains her core traits. Like he said, previous games have shown Amy as a inspiring character and a great hero in her own right(Adventure 1 was probably her best showing, with SA2, the Advance games, Unleashed, and 2006 also being great depictions), but the problem, and why some started hating her was because of moments where she went too far. In Heroes, she wanted to force Sonic to marry her and her goal was solely that. In X, there were moments where she was way too aggressive, not just towards Sonic but towards everyone(To be fair, Sonic himself had some questionable moments aswell. And both had excellent moments too), in Rush she was unreasonably jealous of Blaze and overall unhelpful, and, worse of all, in Battle, she was even more violent and bossy, and even had a very problematic plot with Cream about unhealty exercise. She had bad and good portrayals back then, but now(Especially with Sonic Boom raising her popularity considerably!), she feels, like most of the cast, that she has become a young adult. In Forces and IDW, she's strategic, intelligent, knowing of the stakes at hand, decisive, and determined, all this without being toxic or bossy or violent. On the other hand, she's still the bubbly, kind, emotionally smart, and fun-loving Amy we all know and love. Frontiers was a more serious, melancholic story, that's why Amy feels subdued, and why her arc works! Her decision to leave Sonic and "spreading love with the world" feels like an expansion of what she was doing in IDW. Be a hero that, while the likes of Sonic and Shadow focus on adventure or personal goals while protecting the innocent, is more about inspiring and helping people in more emotional and smart ways that don't always involve action. It always felt very clear to me like this. And something to keep in mind: She still loves Sonic, we constantly see that in IDW and more recently in Murder of Sonic. But he isn't her sole goal anymore, her relationship with him evolved into something more mature and less "playful". Besides, the more Amy grew, the more Sonic himself has shown to have a crush on her, despite always choosing his freedom first and foremost. Like Ian Flynn said, this "Will they, Won't they" won't get an canonical resolution any time soon, but Sega and their creative team has not forgotten about the connection between Amy and Sonic, if anything, they expanded into something more fitting for the stories they want to tell now. Tl;Dr: I disagree with the notion that she is ruined. Amy was and still is a great character. She had bad and good portrayals in the past. Now she feels like she's grown up and more mature while still keeping her core traits. And her love for Sonic remains but in a more subtle, mature, and even mutual, way, without outright confirm or denying it.

[@heroicgangster9981]

ALLOW FEMALE CHARACTERS TO HAVE FLAWS! If people want a competent female character that is not concerned over a boy, just check out Blaze, Cream, and even Sticks when they adapt her. Maybe even Trip if they adapt her into future stories. Being a simp is honestly valid for a character, especially since she is a cartoon character.

[@33pandagamer]

Not only that, but Amy can help teach young girls that it's ok to have feelings and to admit those feelings. That liking someone and admitting that you like them doesn't make you any less cool.

She can still have flaws without being outright stalker-level obsessed with Sonic. Why not bring in her fiery temper from the comics? The problem with simp characters is that they end up coming off as annoying and creepy regardless of the fact that they're fictional.

I get the characters repeating their arcs, which isn't great, but keep in mind back in the day that was Tails first time doing heroic things without Sonic, whereas in frontiers and forces he had been capable on his own before and for whatever reason lost his bravery for a while i feel like it was necessary for Tails to bring this up and try finding himself again cause at its best these characters feel like real people and a real person i feel whould have a tremendous amount of guilt with how he froze up like that in forces

Well Amy’s writing can be all over the place. But she has been mostly well during the 2010s, though admittedly outside of the Boom series and IDW series, she was mostly a generic nice girl. The end of Generations foreshadows her dynamic with Sonic changing. We haven’t seen too much of 2020s Amy, she doesn’t seem much different from 2010s Amy. Frontiers Amy was written as a response to criticisms as A lot of the things she references are either 1. She doesn’t follow through with. And 2. Hasn’t been a problem in a long time.

Sonic isn’t a ripoff of Mickey. He was designed to compete with Mario. As for Amy, The Creators ADMITTED that they took inspiration from Minnie when designing her. Thus, Why she originally looked like Sonic if he was a girl. And by the way, All of Mickey’s stuff has been for preschoolers since the 2000s. Sonic and Mickey have pretty much nothing in common.

[@gleamingroses2952]

As someone who has Amy as their favorite Sonic character, I really do dislike how she's been butchered and nowadays has become another example of how modern female characters are both treated by critics and fanbases as a whole in an odd double standard. As well as course correction response to said people. For me, I don't dislike Ian's take on Amy in that interview in that "Sonic and Amy's cat and mouse game can't go on forever" because it's clear by the direction these characters are older. I DO take issue with him using antagonistic, when there wasn't anything about it in that way. For me, I think what Ian/Sonic Team should have done was simply have Amy grow to approach her advances toward Sonic in a different way, instead of just 180 she doesn't like him anymore. Now sure, that's not to say people don't get over their crushes on people, they do it's a natural thing. With Amy though there's nothing to suggest that this was the case, when IDW still established it from time to time, they just act like it's not there when it comes to the games. Keep in mind, IDW is canon! Regardless, I think a more suitable approach would have been manifesting her aggressive advances brought on by immaturity into playful teasing whenever the moment arises to do so. The maturity would come from the fact that she doesn't see marriage as really a thing she wants to do with Sonic, her chasing him is just something she does in the moment, while she has other things happening on the side or likes the adventure. Amy's arc in Frontiers should've been about wanting to find a way to approach her feelings in a different way, while setting her own path with other goals. It's like if Nintendo decided Princess Peach wasn't a Damsel in Distress by making her Movie Peach and all of a sudden, she needs no man. Not only that, but her love for Sonic also had nothing to do with her other characteristics that all got thrown away in the crossfire. Amy was always someone who was established to have HER own life, I mean that's what she's doing in her opening scene in Adventure 1, she's stopping taking about the mundane of her life and in the opening of Heroes she's just chilling on a beachside with Cream and Big, her fantasizing about Sonic is simply because reading that news article made her wonder what he's doing. Otherwise, she's chilling with HER friends, Sonic just gave them a reason to have an adventure. It's worth noting something people NEVER mention is that there was always a sense of a period of time between their previous adventures in older games, Amy being excited for Sonic could be her way of manifesting that sense of "It's been forever" combined with her obsession of him. Sonic is also someone who is always on the run, so I never understood why Amy gets referred to as a stalker, because a stalker would mean she spends her time wanting to know every nook and cranny about Sonic and spend every single day with him, when she's only seen chasing him whenever they cross paths, and even then all she does is seek to simply force her love, not actually stalk him. But also, its simply because it's the ONLY reason Amy would have the chance of interacting with Sonic, she's simply determined to make it happen. You also never had to think much to get Amy entangled with the group, she could show up to fawn for Sonic, then next moment she's now a player in their adventure. What I find ironic are how many detractors and critics say Amy has matured and now has character, but all anyone does when it comes to modern Amy is compare her to how she's not like her older self to say she has character, there's never any comparing or contrasting or stating simply what's better about her, but go on about how one note she was and how "her love for Sonic was her only defining trait" yet in doing this they are stating Amy HAD A character, even if one dimensional it's still a CHARACTER meanwhile I never hear anything said about modern Amy in terms of personality or characteristics. My retort to these kinds of comments is, people say Amy's goal was ONLY Sonic, but like what is exactly is her goal now? In IDW she doesn't have an established goal and her only form of interest is now Tarot Cards, what does she do as a hobby or anything? Yes, Frontiers says she wants to spread love, but the vagueness of it makes it directionless because that could mean anything. Is she wanting to express the love she has for Sonic to the world itself? Is she wanting to simply give people hope and a sense of love? Idk, and that's the problem, all people do is interpret that phrase. And I feel this also leads to people overexaggerating her older persona. Especially in Sonic Heroes, especially when I find Rouge's scene with the Chaoxtix worse because she decides to callout Team Chaotix and then has her and her teammates JUMP them out of furious paranoia, which to me is WORSE than Amy's scene in Heroes, which just amounted to people overreacting to a scene that's not even intending a form of abuse of any kind and acting as if her focusing on Sonic is a bad thing, when at no point does she do it to the detriment of her friends. Even in Sonic X Amy is hated for being overly aggressive and gets the same stalker label there, yet not only is her being a stalker nullified by the back she LIVES with Sonic, Tails and Cream in the Thorndyke residence, but is often seen accompanied by Tails on adventures. And even then, her focus on Sonic was toned down in the Metarex saga outside of a few notable examples. It is also ironic to me how people unanimously praise Boom Amy for being a mature take on Amy, when their reasons are misconstrued and missing the point entirely. Not only is it an unfair comparison simply done out of cynicism for her older persona, but Boom Amy isn't even a mature person. Her crush on Sonic is just done in secret, but that doesn't mean its mature when the show will reference how creepy her crush is with various jokes, the only difference is she's doing it in secret rather than letting it be known and Sonic obviously likes Amy. (Not to mention, the whole "I secretly like them, but don't want anyone to know is a cliche, even more than Amy's hopeless romantic character people say is cliched) But also, Boom Amy's entire character was convincing people she was a proper lady, when she's actually a bossy hypocrite with temper issues, I don't think I would call that mature (it's worth noting she was even shown to be jealous of Sonic liking other girls, yet she would crush on random guys). It was an intentional purpose of the character, like how older Amy's intention of chasing Sonic was clearly the point. By no means am I saying this makes Boom Amy a bad character, she's not, that's why I think her having flaws was nice, and it's weird how she's liked for having the same flaws older Amy did like having a temper, but older Amy was criticized for it. Despite displaying those traits in the same way outright. Even toward her friends. Boom Amy was supposed to be a different version of her, and now Modern Amy is just a diet version of Boom Amy with all of her traits outside of Motherly and kind stripped the VD also doesn't help. I feel people insert political agendas or systemic issues WAY to much in media to create narratives that aren't there, like the whole "female abusing male thing" sure its a real thing and there are media that does do it, but this has devolved into people inserting it to where ANY type of female that shows aggression or anything toward a male they get this label slapped on them. Meanwhile if a male character were to display similar characteristics of aggression it would be seen as funny or loveable jerk kind of way, unless they are written to the point of an in-your-face Hate Sink. They create double standards while ranting about them. Hell, this is just female characters nowadays period, they are in this lose/lose situation. If they are passive, they're weak, if they're aggressive their "promoting gender double standards" if they kick butt "girlboss". It's like Princess Zelda being playable in the new Zelda game, people wanted this, now all of a sudden its "woke" and "ONLY Link should be playable". This is why I hate how passive Modern Amy is, because her only character now is she's a boring mother hen character with no flaws whatsoever, the generic passive female voice of reason who's only defined by kindness. Which is not only MORE out of date than the obsessive fan with a crush but is what solely defined females back in like 70s, 80s or even early 90s, critics criticized female characters for these, but its progressive for Amy? When they weren't just the person the protagonist had to rescue their only trait was, they were passive and kind. Which is further notified by how less her Piko Piko Hammer is used (even in Dream Team) and in Frontiers is replaced with Tarot Cards a more passive form of attacking that just reskinned moves utilized by her Hammer. Not only is this regressive for Amy, but fans who use to criticize Amy for having a temper are basically saying that her being passive and motherly as a direct correction to that is progressive, which to me feels sexist. It's basically treating Amy (a female) as having a temper is bad and that she's ONLY good if she's as good as YOU want her to be, and Sega appealing to this further condones that because it makes no sense to change Amy to appeal to people who don't even like the character to begin with, especially when nothing was ever said as an alternative solution they just complain about her existence. In Sonic Dream Team, Amy's only personality is that she's a female Sonic, which is another dose of double standards because people criticize her classic design for being Sonic, but girl, yet her modern personality of Sonic, but girl is fine? Another example is Misty from Pokemon who got the "she's too aggressive, let's make her passive" treatment.

A lot of people pin that one moment in heroes (and i honestly just feel uncomfortable watching that scene) but I just like her personality being more like a carefree girl rather than the boss. She doesn’t need to be in love with sonic every second but also doesn’t need to be the alpha. She is independent and very strong but isn’t the smartest. And that’s okay.

[@juanmorrison8794]

Personally I feel a bit divided, since I see both sides of the argument. I also feel like the writing teams for the different games played a large part in this since there are some games in the past where she's more independent, but then in the next one she's back to being obsessive. I'm cautiously optimistic though, since while the storyline for Sonic Frontiers wasn't perfect, to me it felt like one of the best stories we've gotten in a long time, so it's definitely a step in the right direction. I also feel like Sega will observe fan reactions and continue to fine tune her character in time to come while still keeping her true to her roots, especially since they're trying to make everything more meaningfully connected, as seen by them hiring a lore manager not too long ago. Great video!

[@tiagomoreira8905]

I don't think an Amy that is constantly talking about her love for Sonic and chasing him is a good character, but one that hides that love entirely is just as bad. Her love for Sonic really is a key trait of hers, but doesn't need to be her sole defining trait. I like the early IDW Comics in which she blushes or waggles her tail in Sonic's presence, and sometimes admits her feelings and tries some way to get a date or something, but I also like when Amy has other interests and is proactive and badass. Balance between those aspects is the key.

Hi. I’m from the alternate timeline where Sonic Team chose to make Amy’s tarot card hobby her one defining trait for years instead. Honestly, it got just as annoying after a while. She occasionally dabbles in being an environmentalist, and we get maybe a reference to how she has a crush on Sonic every once in a blue moon. I have also visited the timeline where they made her love of nature her only character trait most of the time. She ended up turning into a radical environmentalist right around the same time she went full on “threatening Sonic with violence if he doesn’t marry her” in your timeline. Environmental extremist Amy made for a fun little villain arc later on though.

It’s just she’s focusing on herself right now and her own aspirations. Also, if you watch the entire clip and not just the small section presented here, it’s brought up that Ian intended for this to lead to potential character arc where we see how sonic reacts to an Amy who isn’t chasing him and he actually misses that back-and-forth. (Hence the “I should’ve made up my mind sooner” line from the files). Also, just because Amy is focusing on herself, does not mean that she doesn’t love sonic. Her character bio right now specifically says that “he’s still number one in her heart.”

In an era of bad character writing, this was a diamond in the rough, especially since Pontact and Graff were the ones who wrote Lost World, supposedly.

[@kariminal2999]

I think to be fair to Ian he has said that this is course correction and it needed to happen because a lot of younger fans are probably unfamiliar with amy in the adventure era where she wasnt a one dimensional stalker. Flynn also has said that she was bland in frontiers because it was the first island where they had no idea if they could even win and things seemed really rough. Equally I do want the more firey and passionate side of amy, she should still love sonic but within reason in how she acts imo. Plus we need angry amy. Ive also interpreted love for the world as helping others. Also to be fair flynn has said on other bumble casts he didnt decide on the love for the world thing and a lot of the story did come from sega so...

There is something very suspicious in that article in that Disney magazine where it says that Sonic is just shy... did you notice that it says that they asked Team Sonic's headquarters when we all know that that group calls itself Sonic Team and not Team Sonic ? That is basic information, and how come the name of the person in the group who was asked that question is not mentioned? someone like Takashi Iizuka? And how come they don't say where the "headquarters" is located? I mean, how are we so sure that this article is genuine and not something one of the magazine's writers made up?

[@NonNonNonNon]

I feel like they were trying to take like what good aspects Amy had in boom, and implement them into the mainline story. Trying to end that whole endless chase for sonic makes me kind of scared now because they literally removed the only thing she has had in the entire mainline story, and wants her to spread that affection around the world. It sounds good sure since it now sounds like she's grown up and matured a bit but, how is that going to work throughout sonic's adventures going forward? Now it feels like she's going to become another redundant character like almost every other sonic character in the sonic universe. I may have yapped a bit but it's true that she almost has no real purpose now. Removing that "I love Sonic" part just seemed like the wrong move imo. We'll just have to wait and see I suppose.

Amy’s has always been my fav character since I was a kid and honestly I agree with both sides. I think they can expand her character/give her more to do and still keep her hopeless romantic side for sonic. I think they should focus on her love for nature and magic(fortune cards). If we had more backstory like where she got her hammer and stuff like that. It would really make her feel more fleshed out.

[@TheDynomiteGuy]

I agree with what you had to say. I liked Amy's character more back in the adventure days. She was in love with Sonic, but that wasn't her whole personality imo(like passion and spirit). It seems to me that SEGA just flanderized her character like they did with some of the others(like Tails in Sonic Forces and Knuckles in Sonic Boom). She and the rest of the characters also felt like they had more attitude with each other. That was something that I missed from Sonic stories from around the time after Sonic and the Black Knight. I just thought that it all made the story more fun to watch.

My favorite portrayal of Amy is in Sonic Boom. She still has a crush on Sonic but keeps it to herself. She loves to read and does research to help others (as she did for Sticks in Unnamed Episode.) She has her anger (though not to the extreme of Sonic X, also ironic when Knuckles lacks his in favor for the idiot personality) which can lead to funny moments (like when she was teaching Tails how to impress a woman then when he asked where he could find one, she shouted "I AM A WOMAN!") and some great moments (like when she stood up to T.W. Barker after he was going to take Knuckles' house away.) And she's very sympathetic towards others (such as when she hired Dave to work at her restaurant after Eggman blew up Meh Burger and when she adopted one of Eggman's Bee Bots because she felt sorry for it.)

Who stays interesting and never loses her will to throw down with whoever messes with her, but learns to think and process information more intelligently over the course of her main adventure and going on to become a well renowned hero with her true love. Estelle Bright, the main player character for Trails in the Sky First Chapter and Trails in the Sky Second Chapter.

EDIT: I wrote this comment before finishing the vid I’m surprised our views lined up as well as they did lol Personally I feel like them attempting to remove this “fangirlness” is also erasing her very explosive passion and personality. I really don’t get the argument of her now “becoming a real character” when she was always a real character. She redeemed gamma, she beat the hell out of zero, she redeemed shadow the hedgehog. Cause of her simple and sweet beliefs it was beautiful imo it was a lot like how sonic motivates his friends, but in girl power pink it was coo. Amy was only a damsel once in her debut in CD. And with heroes the story in general is very cartoony, exaggerated, and all over the place. That’s what makes heroes work though. Idk man I just can’t fully get behind them erasing that part of her character cause if anything it was charm, it was her and Sonic’s bit I always thought it was just a little funny gag but some people get irritated as hell over it I just don’t get it. If they do go through with this I just hope it’s better written than frontiers. Remove the “fangirl” if you want but you gotta make the fiery passion stay it is essential

Amy Rose? Total garbage, ripping off Minnie Mouse just like Sonic is a pathetic copycat of Mickey. Sega? A joke. Nintendo? Right there with them. Disney and WB? The real deal. They've created icons, legends, and unforgettable stories. So, if you're still wasting your time on those rip-offs, it's time to wake up and accept the truth. Minnie Mouse, Mickey Mouse, Disney, and WB are the true champs. Amy, Sonic, and those wannabe companies? Irrelevant losers

[@neodragonwyvern]

Amy already had her best development in SA1. She showed she could be a great hero because of and despite of Sonic. That obsession was part of who she was and what drove her to be who she was. You dont have to take away something from a character to add to them. I think Ian missed the mark with Amy a bit. Also those who hated or found that annoying about her only focused on that one trait about her, even when they were adding to her. It just seems girls cant be boy crazy anymore because of some prenotion that that makes women look weak.

[@Nightsoulgaming0925]

I think the problem is that Amy is more of the Japanese region where they see girls as feminine and cute while in western /America goes for the tomboy masculine route of females because they think is sensitive and insecure about not being strong like men and don’t need men for attention

@@Emoghost_Buck120 Sega is absolute trash, just like Nintendo. But here's the kicker - Disney and WB are on a whole different level. They're not just good, they're legendary. Their characters, stories, and overall impact on the world are just incredible. So if you're still holding onto that sad little hope that Sega and Nintendo are anywhere near the level of Disney and WB, then it's time to wake up and face reality. Disney and WB are the true kings of entertainment.

[@luigiboi4244]

In my personal opinion I like this new direction for Amy. To explain why I like it, I visualize it as a linear approach. Amy caught a glimpse of Sonic both at young ages in CD and it was love at first sight, then as the games progressed, she had to mature with them to match their age, however she still had the “Disney Princess marries Prince Charming mindset”, and continued to pursue Sonic. It was only until the events of Sonic Forces and the IDW comics that she really gave thought about what she was doing. She was still in love with Sonic yes, but she also loved the world, the animals, the people, and she wanted to help them all. However I do see the problem that some people will have, and that’s accessibility to all these parts of the story. Physical Comics are a dying artform, and it’s getting harder and harder to find a comic shop or a place that sells them just to keep up with a story, and in Sonic’s case, most of the ongoing story is based in the comic. So unless someone had enough time and money to buy all issues of the Sonic IDW comic (which I recommend, it’s REALLY GOOD), they are only going to be getting the story through vague snippets through the games and maybe the animated series.

No. People just wanna bitch and complain for no reason lol.

[@Preteristboy]

Very excellent points! In my opinion, Amy's main trait may have been loving Sonic, but she's also assertive and headstrong and willing to push herself to help and protect her friends. We see that side of her in Sonic X, Heroes, and Battle. Also of note, she thinks with her heart, not with her head. This is why iterations of her where she's just the intel person (Sonic Lost World and Sonic Forces) feels off IMAO. But what's commonly forgotten is her idealistic, hopeful, magical view of the world. Sure, tarot cards are one aspect of it, but there's more to it. There's the idea that there's good in people. There's her speech to Shadow. In Sonic X, she believes that when you confess your love under a rainbow, it will come true. In Riders, she connects the tradition of making wishes on stars to the Babylonians hoping for the Ark of the Cosmos to fall to Earth so they can return home. But at the heart of that is her believing in Sonic with all her heart and in the power of love. In short, if Sonic has the heart of a boy, Amy has the heart of a girl. I believe this is important to keep in mind with Amy, and a point that is commonly missed these days.

[@kendraroth1276]

Yep. Amy was always meant to be Sonic’s female counterpart. Thus, why she is written the way she is.

She's literally better than ever in my opinion.

I just have to accept that what I want is not what the fanbase wants, what a damn shame
