Not to be that guy, but you may want to remove the word "the" before that abbreviation. The T in it already stands for "The". You're basically saying "the The Murder of Sonic the Hedgehog."

Has anyone noticed how simular amy's shoes are to what knuckles usually wears?

[@michaelcarlton1484]

They are strap sandals. They do not have metal plates that look like LEGO bricks on them. I don't see any similarities.

[@erikbihari3625]

@@michaelcarlton1484. Amy wore something like it in sonic boom, and here, it looks like it and a fusion between knuckles' regulars and some versions like in game sprites and boom's(where the heel area is yellow instead of red giving it the appearence of a clown's shoes). Also wich one's are you talking about now specifically?

[@michaelcarlton1484]

@@erikbihari3625 I'm referring to her shoes in 'The Murder of Sonic the Hedgehog' and Knuckles's regular shoes. There are no similarities. Even Amy's normal boots aren't even remotely similar.

[@erikbihari3625]

@@michaelcarlton1484. You seem to have misunderstand my comment. What I was trying to say, is that while Amy Rose's mainstream stories after sonic adventure one are about gaining independance from her male peers, her design can't help but subconciously convey submission with design cues, weather indirectly or intentionally feeling derivative and in some cases inspired by those aformentioned ones(red foot wear with white racing stripe,geen eyes,ring like bracelets,spiky hair facing downwards,hammer)! Sure there are minor differences(she wears boots not racing shoes and stripe is vertical not horizontal and across the feet area, but still has a sock looking fabric on top,she has a bob not dreadlocks/five head quills, her rings do nothing,) but overall combined with her red dress with white highlights and hammer to simulate knuckles' appearence and strength, she blends in too mutch, rather than being complimentary yet distinctive like everyone else.(Heck, now that I think about it, she's basically sakura's furry o.c.!🤦)

[@DarkElfDiva]

Shadow singing now that is something you don’t see every day, also knuckles being black is the cherry on top

Excuse me, but is it alright if my friends and I dub this scene with the characters' voices? I've seen quite a few people online wondering what it would be like if the characters actually sang this in their own voices, and I figured my friends and I could try it out because we do a lot of Sonic dubs, but barely anything actually animated (we usually stick to the IDW comics), but it'd be a fun challenge to try something like this
