Another reason Chaos is a perfect sonic villain: he is literally made out of sonics biggest weakness.

That whole part about Dark Gaia was straight up wrong, the people were shown all the time to be concerned about the planet being split apart. That one ice cream guy was the only person really trying to stay happy despite everything and honestly he probably didn't even know the planet split. The townsfolk in Spagonia all danced around because they were possessed, they weren't just not caring about the planet breaking. The clips in this video are cut in a way that purposely misleads the whole story of Unleashed, they never play it off or act like we shouldn't take Dark Gaia seriously. They do the exact opposite and always picture him as the gigantic threat he is. Furthermore I can just tell this guy is another typical "Meta era is Satan's spawn and villains must be super in depth and have book like motivations" that mindset is just really bad.

[@Powerman77775]

11:58 “He’s just a poor man’s Chaos” That’s cause he literally is. The Biolizard was modeled after Perfect Chaos while Shadow was modeled after Super Sonic.

[@Lolxlol21_]

8:34 I fully agree. That OST feels like it’s your back up to the wall, no way out. Open your heart feels like the 2nd chance and we are going to make the most of it. Having it the opposite way feels very odd, like sonic was wining, but then lost, when in reality it’s the other way.

[@WelcomeToTiltedTowers]

Tbh would be cool if the first phase of perfect chaos was the second phase song, and the thing you had to do there was collect 50 rings for super sonic, then when you turn super open you heart starts playing

[@Lolxlol21_]

11:18 My theory: They originally wanted something big to literally crush the opposition with, hence they made the Bio-Lizard but soon discovered due to its size, power and overall animal behaviour, it was difficult to control (Just imagine trying to transport that thing to battle). They then decided that something smaller, intelligent, more likely to listen to commands and still powerful would be better route....hence shadow was created. Although how the Bio-Lizard survived for years with no food or water is beyond me (Perhaps it’s Back-device acts like food).

[@theminecraft2516]

Eggman is definitely my favorite villain of all time. He is timeless like the Joker.

[@superfandesonic1]

Those transitions between games were really cool!!

[@ArynBacklogDragon]

I would argue that, if you're gonna consider Metal Sonic an extension of Eggman, shouldn't the Biolizard be considered an extension of Gerald? Also, Merlina is 100% a villain. she's a tragic villain, and I think a very well realized one, but a villain nonetheless.

[@cofagrigusfan24]

i honestly think that Zavok is very underrated calm, calculative, honorable, ruthless, strongest mortal Sonic ever faced as for those who say who is evil for the sake of being evil well... yeah, he is based on a demon or oni, they are evil in nature also IDW that shows that it wasn't Lost World that was the problem, it's writers that are the problem

[@ArtFromHer]

IDW Zavok is amazing

[@ediblemonster4219]

[@trevorsmusicvideos]

The editing in this video was crazy good. Too good😂😂😂 got me rolling

[@MrAppleSalad]

Why you done did my boy Ix so dirty? I thought he was a cool villain, he's basically an evil dictator who's so powerful and menacing that he scared an entire dimension of convicts into serving him unconditionally. He emotionally manipulated his entire kingdom to the point that Shade was convinced of his pure intentions despite how obviously evil he was, and even when she was broken out of his grasp she still was unable to really lead a normal life, needing to follow someone because that's how she was raised. Also despite not really having any "forms" Ix is one of if not *the* strongest base form character we've seen, so that's gotta count for something. I think he deserves more credit then you're giving him.

[@adverseresolve8142]

Imo I find Erazor Djinn to be intimidating as a villain. Though thought his E rank segment was hilarious.

[@ljthehedgehog2342]

The irony is that Eggman and chaos came out before beerus and Dr gero

[@hydrocityshark]

Unpopular opinion: Erazor Jinn is an actually alright villain for me. I think the arrow heart was an interesting of keeping suspense through Sonic’s journey, as it’s a race against time before his death. I don’t think Erazor’s motivation was bad in any means. And he has history with Shara that could be further explored.

[@noobkilerv2]

Honestly my favorite 'modern' Sonic villain was Time Eater....purely because of the theory it's actually Mephiles. ^^,

[@TheProswagonist]

I think for SA2, Gerald is more of the villain than the biolizard. Cause the events of that game only happens because of his mission for revenge for what happened on the arc. He manipulates Shadows memories to carry out his plan, leaves a vague journal that "coincidently" made its way to Eggman so that he'd find and wake Shadow up and re-purposed the ark and biolizard to destroy the earth. All to complete a plan that wouldn't fully be carried out till 50 years after his death.

[@mitchellbambam5926]

I feel like Neo has to be the coolest boss of all time, an evil robotic doppelgänger gets so sick of getting his ass handed to him by the being he’s supposed to defeat that he kidnaps his own boss, upgrades himself with the biggest emerald of all time, copies the powers of some of the strongest life-forms in the universe, becomes a giant metal monster for the sole purpose of punting sonic into the sun. Not to mention the song ‘What I’m made of’ is written for him. It’s like all of Metals goals and drive to succeed put into one song! Epic.

Good video!! I don't agree with your standards fir what counts as a villain (I can get excluding Shadow, but Malenia definitely counts, she's just a sympathetic villain), but your style is great, abd your opinions are also good (metal sonic is factually awesome).

[@BlueStride]

I definitely see Merlina as an antagonist, but not a villain. The difference between those two terms is that an antagonist is someone who is in opposition/serves as an obstacle or threat to the protagonist, while a villain is a character whose evil actions affect other individuals or the plot itself. Thus, all villains are antagonists (unless said game narrative takes place via the antagonist's perspective making him/her/they the protagonist), but not all antagonists are villains. Hence, because Merlina's actions can all be steemed under "good but drastic" and she is against Sonic's efforts towards the end of Black Knight, she passes the antagonist requirements, but not the villain one. Or at least, that's how I see it. But even still, she's a great character none the less that I feel for.

[@rhyperiorhunter7339]

honestly I kanda like Erazor Djin, mainly because of how good a job he does of making the player hate him he constantly insults sonic, puts him on timer to bring him the seven world rings or he will die, and even kills Shara while trying to kill sonic, this makes his final defeat where he's forced back into his lamp all the more satisfying

Kind of a hot take but I kind of like Erazor….I mean at best he’s still d or a lucky c but I kind of enjoy the fact he’s just a flat out ham onscreen (I mean you still get better in that department with eggman but you can still get worse in that field *coughs in infinite*). Plus he does unironically have a cool design and his battle as Alf Wayla Wa Layla is the best boss in secret rings…yeah low bar I know. The big problem I have with him is that Secret Rings does nothing in regards to elaborating his ties to Shahra which could’ve gone somewhere interesting….but they just say she wants to be with him for some reason and that’s it.

This was probably already commented, but it would be cool to also see you do a video with villains turned rivals/allies Not sure if doing it exclusively with their introductions would be best or if seeing the whole gallery would be better, the thing with that is that not every character gets the same amount of representation in the series Which is kinda a double edged sword seeing how a character with a great introduction like Shadow kept gradually getting worse until he actually got his own game, then got an actually good showing in '06, then kept switching between either being a background character or being mean for the sake of edge for several years
