Sonic Rush - All Bosses (S Rank)

[@UltraSTH]

When you think about the fact that Sonic and Blaze are both playable and they're also bosses: *you feel cooler knowing that you're playing as a boss character*

[@KookieStar]

Basically, another of way of saying: *You're playing yourself*

[@ubilwilbur4775]

Additional note: Blaze is already a princess and the guardian of the Sol Emeralds, while Sonic is one of the few people who has canonically maintained control of the Chaos Emeralds' power for a non-sinister purpose. (Bonus points for the fact that Sonic later goes on to become a legendary knight and king)

[@xdan-]

Then you play as boss characters in almost every Adventure era game.
