*Jun'ichi Kanemaru voice* OK. Let’s go!

2:38 This dialogue in a nutshell: "You're all gonna become a joke" "No u"

[@YourUncleBenis]

Me when I watch with my fingers in my mouth as the Eggman Fleet conquers the world.

[@edward18517]

Thank god we get your Sonic Heroes stuff again

[@xtremespotzu]

I'm loving these updated translations!

[@potomtale]

伏線がありすぎて気づかなかったな。特にテイルズのエッグマンのメカじゃない、依頼人はなぜ偽物なのかを知ってたのかとかね。

[@potomtale]

あと伏線もう一つあった。ハングキャッスルで裏世界状態にするとメタルソニックの石像が見える。（表世界ではエッグマンの石像）

[@Thephoenixofstories]

10:28 “I shake my fist at you, Eggman Decoy.”

[@harryenchiladas8826]

12:56 An interesting dialogue, I don't remember that Rouge was "stubborn" in this story, but that dialogue reinforces the possibility that this Shadow is the real one. (That at least he remembers her)

[@TheNemesis432]

She's stubborn because she goes after the prize she failed to acquire last time. And yeah this line is probably the strongest one as a hint, but there are others in Heroes (and Shadow) which hint at Shadow memories returning. Shadow (as in the game) tries to imply what probably all of these memories were implanted by Eggman (how else would Sonic Team expect us to interpret Shadow remembering his own death and concluding he has to be an android) Frankly Shadow possibly being an android was an interesting plotpoint (which is proven by fans latching on to it so much), so it's disappointing what they didn't really do much with it (or Androids as well).

[@AccelerateHedge]

I think that line is more meant to show that Rouge DID fill Shadow in on what happened.

うわぁ『ソニックヒーローズ』懐かしい､僕の家にゲームキューブ版を持ってます。 初めは楽しみにしながらも時々は慣れていくまでは難しかったけれど､何回も失敗して､ようやく慣れてから得意になってきた気がしましたから､結構楽しかったですよぉ😂 もちろん途中で流れる“CGムービー”が楽しみでたまりません､ありがとうございました😊 そして､去年12月に発売20周年を迎えましたね､おめでとうございます‼️🎉👏😶🙂😀🐇🐢

[@sentrogaspers9813]

9:35 The music somehow fit the scene despite still in theme of casino stage. Tension but on beat? Count me in!

[@socheata643]

I Love this game!

[@proximaeon]

I love how Omega shows to be more allied and become 'friendly' towards Shadow and Rouge. Initially stating that he would have attacked Shadow and Rouge if they got in front of him, to later accept Shadow's request to hold his revenge due Eggman potentially having done or knowing something of Shadow's memories.

[@glitchedblood]

they kept the broad line in both English and JP but not seduce. Interesting

[@juiceDpunk983]

If Team Sonic are following Team Dark in hang castle, that must mean that Dark won the battle. That's what I always thought anyway lol.

[@Nighterac]

I always wondered what the "canon" versions of the fights in SA2 and Heroes were Like Shadow beating Sonic on Prison Island but then losing against him on the race to the Eclipse Cannon. Or Tails beating Eggman on board the ARK after he lost originally on Prison Island as well Team Dark probably wins both, Team Sonic beats Team Rose and maybe Team Rose defeats the Chaotix

[@deniedred]

4:52 im losing it over these lines “we have a date with eggman too!” “die” “no u” 😭😭 theyre so aggressive and for what. i kind of like shadow’s eng line better??

[@Nighterac]

Yup in some places, English is actually better. Compared to other games around this era (looking at you Shadow), Heroes is very faithfully translated, to the point it can sound a little awkward The "stubborn and full of surprises" thing from this same cutscene is straight from JP SA2, when the English version said "I die hard" instead.

[@deniedred]

@@Nighterac yeah i heard about that! i kinda wish we got that callback in the eng version, but “i die hard” is such a fun line by itself anyway, ryan drummond really sells it

[@Nighterac]

@@deniedred Yeah Sonic really should have said something like "Talk about dying hard.." in the English version because by it being accurate to the JP line, it just comes across as an awkward line when it's supposed to be a direct callback to something Sonic said himself back in SA2 lol

[@deniedred]

@@Nighterac yeah exactly!!

[@LargeToastie]

I have been playing the Sonic games in Japanese recently trying to familiarise myself with the language more and it's quite interesting seeing what the differences are. Like how 4:36 is a callback to SA2 where before the final Sonic vs Shadow, Sonic says that his stubbornness is a virtue (or something to that effect) and here he's basically saying Shadow is too. The English line in Heroes is the same, but they never said that in English SA2. So while the line makes sense, it's a shame the line in Heroes isn't about "dying hard" to accomodate.

[@atasker7432]

24:42 "Ready to form Metal Overlord!" 24:50 "Form feet & legs!" 25:06 "Form arms & body!" 25:18 "And I'll form the head!" (Edit) He is returning in Shadow Generations.

SO, WE ARE 🇬🇧 SONIC HEROES 🇬🇧

[@PikachuGamerSMT]

Something I never understood was that the sonic wiki says that Neo Metal has copied all the Teams’ data when he only copies Team Sonic’s alongside Shadow (just him) and Chaos

[@WindiiGitlord]

@@PikachuGamerSMT the wiki is wrong about a lot of things

[@TheTrollingPokémon247]

One thing I want to point out that I noticed: Interestingly enough they used Ryan Drummond’s Metal Sonic scream for the Last Story cutscene for the Japanese dub, which is strange since the English cast had to have dubbed after the Japanese cast since the Japanese actors were the first ones to receive the scripts. Am I the only one who noticed this?

[@WindiiGitlord]

@@TheTrollingPokémon247 The English script is translated. But the voice acting was done first so the CG cutscenes could be animated to it.

[@TheTrollingPokémon247]

⁠@@WindiiGitlordright, I’m aware that the English scripts were translated and how that works. However I found it confusing that the first dub of the game would use something from the second dub even though the English cast recorded their lines before those cutscenes were animated, rather than having Jun’Ichi Kanemaru record another Metal Sonic scream for the Japanese dub instead.

[@WindiiGitlord]

@@TheTrollingPokémon247 They probably didn't do it because Ryan's roar sounded good enough already.

[@lemon5000-tj6nv]

Just realised that ppl complain about Amy following sonic calling her a stalker when tails literally did the same thing at 27:36 lmao She’s completely fine in this game, whenever ppl complain about her it sounds like they’re speaking a foreign language to me I just don’t get it

[@Nighterac]

Sonic fans in particular love to overreact about this game. You're completely right

[@trashboat5388]

It’s mostly the dubs fault

[@cyan.6399]

part of me was hoping the "Kneel before your master," part of NEO Metal's first line of dialogue wasn't adlibbed in the ENG dub, since it would've been fun to think about in regards to the theory that Sonic is the Ultimate Life Form, but it seems like it was edited by the official translation.. the game still contributes a lot to his character regardless

[@feliciaroseantonia]

Jun'ichi's "So, we are! Sonic! He-roes~!" at the very end of the last cutscene omg 😭💞 Also, I just looked up his age (I actually wanted to just make sure I was spelling his name correctly, & so I just happened to see his age as well), and, doing the math... turns out he was just about FORTY YEARS OLD while recording voice lines for this game. I say that since this game is turning 20 this year, and I'd imagine the voice acting was done about a year prior to the game's release (since that's more or less what happens with at least live-action films as well, of course). I don't know why, I always thought he started voicing Sonic (not too long prior to this game, of course) when he was, like, 18 or 19, or perhaps in his early 20s or something. I guess it makes sense, though. Sure, some people perhaps just don't really look their age in general per-se, but Japan in particular is known for having excellent health care, and thus longer lifespans for people on average. Though, then again, there's also a toxic over-working culture there that's arguably even worse than ours over here in the U.S., which is saying something for sure... but still. That reminds me, iirc, I think it was Morio Kishimoto who had overworked himself quite a bit while working on this game in particular. I learned about it last year and was quite concerned for him about it, even though it's already been like 20 years or so since then. I love Sonic so so much, and Heroes is arguably my favorite game, if I had to choose one. (Adventures 1 & 2 are tied for a close 2nd place, and Frontiers in 3rd for me personally.) So it feels a lot like when I learned about the first two Spiderverse movies having had similar over-working environments. I love the product, but it's not worth it to have anyone's health be put at risk. Thus, even if it means we have to wait years for the final product to be released, then ultimately, that's still what should happen. If it means people are safe and healthy, then that's what should happen, because that's all that matters. Health matters more than other people's entertainment. -(coughDeltarunefanscough)- I dunno. That got kind of off-topic, I guess, but it's not something I've seen people talk about a lot regarding Heroes, so I figured I'd mention it since it came to mind.

[@WindiiGitlord]

The Japanese voice acting for this game was done in July 2003. It was also Iizuka who overworked himself.

[@romalapin8648]

Hmm, I see English translation is changed.

[@Thephoenixofstories]

For some Reason If you Pick English then it will have the subtitles that the created put in the video, but if you pick English (Auto Translate) then it doesn’t actually do auto generated, the text is slightly different.

[@WindiiGitlord]

don't pick the auto translate one, ew

[@Um_idiota_qualquer870]

I was a little upset that in Egg Emperor, Eggman doesn't say "Time to meet your maker"

[@WindiiGitlord]

If it makes you feel any better, Shadow says it in SA2.

[@greenD7244]

Did you delete a video for the in-game dialogue (not idles, stuff like boss dialogue)? I remembered you made one already, I was looking for it to check Metal’s monologue stuff in JP. Was it simply inaccurate/old?

[@WindiiGitlord]

cutscenes are clearly originally in English, but hey, the Japanese voice actors are paid tons more

[@WindiiGitlord]

@@concreteman03 Maekawa's script still came first.

[@AccelerateHedge]

Man, the English version butchered this with all the stuff about the power of teamwork. Here, it reads more like using teamwork to show their enemies how powerful they are, which is better imo. Just another common Japanese language W

[@atasker7432]

I can't stand english dub of this game.

[@AccelerateHedge]

@@atasker7432 Yeah it's not good

[@Nighterac]

Honestly Heroes dub isn't so bad. It's actually pretty faithful at times somehow when even SA2 and other games tend to deviate. Sometimes lines are the exact same in English (like Espio saying "Our client's adversary, perhaps?" is the exact same in both languages) It's Shadow's dub that's the problem

[@AccelerateHedge]

@Nighterac Nah I'm sorry I can't stand the localization of this game, Shadow def had it worse tho

[@Sage-H26]

I mean I don’t really see what’s the difference both are still talking about team work, it’s just the Japanese version said it in a different connotation.
