The character sonic the hedgehog is the title character and the protagonist of the sonic the hedgehog video game series published by sega, as well as numerous spin-off comics, animations, and other media. The character sonic the hedgehog is a blue anthropomorphic hedgehog who can run at supersonic speeds and curl into a ball, primarily to attack enemies. In most games, sonic must race through levels, collecting power-up rings and avoiding obstacles and enemies. Most of the games are developed by Sonic Team. The original sonic the hedgehog game was released to provide Sega with a mascot to rival Nintendo's flagship character Mario. Sonic was redesigned by Yuji Uekawa for Sonic Adventure, with a more mature look designed to appeal to older players. The sonic cypher is one of the world's best-known video game characters and a gaming icon. His series had sold more than 80 million copies by 2011. In 2005, Sonic was one of the first game character inductees into the Walk of Game alongside Mario, Link, and Master Chief.

[@theminecraft2516]

I mean most people like Mephiles as a villain

[@veloxdrake1025]

The biggest issue with 06 was the gameplay was broken everyone knows and agrees with that. The story wasn't horrible, some people didn't like the fact he was paired up in a romantic manner with a human (despite the fact that wasn't even the first time). I haven't tried the fan remake of it but it seems to be solving a lot of the problems... As the person above me said, people like him as a villain. I mean the fact they gave us a villain that actually kills Sonic says a lot even if it's temporarily. Honestly, I'd say he's probably the only genuine villain in the series because his motivation isn't forced, controlled, being hired, or built by Eggman, he doesn't shift sides as Eggman himself commonly does to defeat the "bigger bad guy" He was pure evil from start to finish.

After a few relistens I found something I REALLY like in Mat4Yo's part Metal Sonic's end line is "I'll show you who the devil is" then Mephiles opens with "The answer is Mephiles" and I thought these two were connected (due to the similar rhyme scheme) but then I realized that Mephiles end line is "Who's going to leave you Sonic O'Sixed" which means Mephiles first line is him answering his own question at the end of his own verse. Such a meta way to show off Mephiles time travel powers.

[@300IQPrower]

I wrote up a bunch of reference explanations to explain to a friend, so I figured I can put it here too for anyone not as versed in Sonic: From Dan as Eggman: The 300IQ line off the top ain’t just a boast, it’s a canon fact that Eggman has an IQ of exactly 300! “I am the Eggman” also isn’t just a reference to Eggman’s name and the Beatles song, it’s verbatim the hook to Eggman’s official theme, E.G.G.M.A.N. The abundance of gun bars for Eggman is also a nice nod to how a staple of Eggman’s robots is firearms and he used to even carry a gun himself back in SA2. The “Whole Zoo when i talk with llama’s, ask Shofu” bit is a reference to both how most sonic characters are animals and to Scru Face Jean’s worldwide cypher that had both Dan and Shofu in it. From Zach B as Metal Sonic: “Never lag behind in a race, the road's dusty” is a reference to Sonic CD where Metal debuted and how the stage you race metal in CD is StarDUST Speedway. “I'm starting to think you're the fake, hmmm, you must be” is in reference to Sonic OVA based loosely on CD and Sonic 3 where Metal is so obsessed with his perfection that he believes _Sonic_ is a copy of *Metal.* “I’m basically another you, with everybody combined” is about how in Sonic Heroes, Metal becomes Neo Metal Sonic, who can shapeshift into anyone he scans and the “devil” part later on refers to how he ends up becoming the godlike Metal Overlord that takes everyone working together to beat, complete with visual of a sprite based on that form! The “no one’s repelling this” line before that is also a reference to the Black Shield, a unique defense matrix Metal Sonic has that repels any and all incoming attacks, and lastly “I'll take the ones that you love” refers to how Metal is somewhat of a serial kidnapper between Amy in Sonic CD, Sara in the OVA, and both Froggy and Chocola in Sonic Heroes. As for Mat4yo, oh boy. Mephiles is the villain of (the very bad) Sonic 06 and Mat packed a TON of fantastic references into a character most people probably wouldn’t have taken so seriously. He’s from the future and is basically in a Cell situation where he’s made incomplete so he goes back in time to absorb his other half, which is where “for centuries I've been on the ledge of an experiment” comes from with how he was sealed away in 2 parts. “In the shadow of shadows, I'm underground” is how Mephiles starts out as this being made of pure darkness but possesses Shadow’s shadow for a body which is why he looks a lot like him. “Rapper, the master, spitting flames of disaster” is a reference to his other half Iblis, basically a lava kaiju known as The Flames of Disaster. Mephiles also uses telepathy and so he _literally_ doesn’t “even need to open my mouth” (as well as a cheeky shot at 06’s animation). The aforementioned Iblis is the body of the world-ending sun god Solaris and Mephiles its soul which is what “You've got a one-way ticket to oblivion, Feel the burning sun rays, this kid invented them” is about. And the last line about 06’d is a triple play. There’s the obvious 0-6/six feet under meaning but in the game Mephiles actually DOES succeed in killing sonic before he abducts Elise, and Sonic has to be brought back to life (“Kill the King, steal the heart of his princess”) AND Sonic 06 was a game so bad it was decried as the death of the franchise at the time. There’s also one bit of pure wordplay I HAVE to mention: “Came back from future to tell you the answer’s Mephiles” isn’t just a reference to time travel, it’s not just a loop from the question “who’s gonna leave you Sonic 06’d” but it’s even a response to the last line of Zach’s verse, as the name Mephiles is derived from the *devil* Mephistopheles. Pete definitely didn’t have much to work with for Zavok but that absolutely didn’t stop him. “I'm boxin baddies and crackin eggs” refers to how Zavok hands Eggman his ass to the point he asks Sonic for help. “King of my clique…all six ahead” is a nod to him being the leader of the alien-like race known as Zeti, and the “conch” mentioned is the Cacophonous Conch that acts like kryptonite to Zeti. Shwabadi as Chaos: “Six forms, and I'm open-minded” is both a reference to how Chaos’s brain is visible at all times and how by absorbing chaos emeralds he can change his form. Although there are 7 emeralds and Chaos has a base form without any, we only ever seen Chaos 0, 1, 2, 4, 6, and Perfect Chaos, so it’s still six forms rather than eight. “You should bow down, ask Chao, I'm a god” is a reference to both Chaos’s title as ‘God of Destruction’ and him being the guardian of the Chao. “All I’m seeing is green, like cash rules” is about his green eyes of course, but the reason he even has them is he was both granted power and sealed away inside the Master Emerald that Knuckles guards, literally seeing the entire world through a green lens. “Everything, but no cream, I snatch up” is a nod to Cream the Rabbit, one of the only characters in the series who is direct friends with a Chao and thus exempt from Chaos’s wrath. Shao Dow as Infinite: “I'll twist the world to my wishes” refers to this thing Infinite has called the Phantom Ruby that lets him warp reality itself to any of infinite possibilities, hence his name, and the matter cubes, and the excuse Forces uses to bring all the villains back. “I hold the truth within my chest, it's fused to me” is talking about said Ruby as Infinite fused his body with it to fully absorb its power. “Fuck who I used to be… Scared? Weak? No I refuse to be” Infinite was part of a mercenary gang of jackals hired by Eggman who got the absolute shit kicked out of them by shadow. Infinite was realllllllly not happy about that… ”Mask on never mask off” …and so he got his dr doom mask game on and decided to completely start anew as someone twice as ruthless who wouldn’t ever feel so weak again. “And I should've been the last boss” Rather infamously, despite having every right to be the true villain, Sonic Forces’ garbage story made Eggman the final boss after unceremoniously casting Infinite aside entirely. (It’s also nice foreshadowing here that Sonic.EXE is gonna happen). “Think you're fast I surpass hogs” isn’t the kind of line I'd normally read into but considering it's Infinite specifically, it's warranted enough to mention: this isn't just a brag either. The bad writing also resulted in a meme worthy exchange that shows just how much the game REALLY wants you to know Infinite is threatening, ham-fistedly having him introduced with other characters explicitly saying he’s faster than Sonic like he’s a badly set up Flash villain. “The mercenary, I hurt so many / Your team I bury, extremely edgy” is about how Infinite has this entertainingly edgy backstory, design, and theme with him being a grizzled ex-mercenary who’s a lot like what people meme Shadow as, but that’s OFFICIALLY what Infinite is like and it’s played straight. “I move these cubes like a Rubik's / Infinite jackal beings, death like Anubis” The main manifestation of the phantom ruby’s power is these matter cubes Infinite manipulates, and he’s a jackal like the Egyptian death god Anubis. As for Cam as Sonic.EXE, it’s easier to just explain WHAT it is cause after that it’s all self explanatory. Sonic.EXE is a creepypasta of a “Cursed” sort of Virus-Sonic from 2011 that gained a ton of notoriety due to actually being well made for a creepypasta with custom spritework and a short freeware ‘game’ in the graphical style of Sonic 3, where a demonic Sonic teleports around hellscapes pursuing Tails, Knuckles, and Robotnik and kills them all in gruesome ways (gruesome for genesis sprites anyhow), before having a high detail close up of its face with “I AM GOD” written in blood while Kefka’s laugh from Final Fantasy 6 plays, something that plays at the end of this track. Dont know if anyone will care to read all that but if it helps anyone get the deeper cuts then I’ll be happy! This probably isn’t even all of em cause I seem to find a new one with every listen, and it certainly isn’t even getting into any of the actual wordplay that everyone brought in SPADES. Seriously, this is one of the all time greats in every way. I lost count of how times I’ve listened _days_ ago. Bravo to every single person involved, Freshy with their incredible mixing included!

Why is no one talking about Dr Robotnik's Sonnet?

[@JooshReact]

Got two amazing things to point out that I haven't seen anybody talk about yet. 1. 0:14 Dan opens up with "Speak in a haiku, got a 300 IQ. See what I might do?" That right there is a haiku. A haiku is a form of poetry that consists of 5 syllables on line 1, 7 syllables on line 2, and 5 syllables again on line 3. It's lyrical genius. 2. 1:25 Mat4yo did a similar thing here, but it still blows my mind. Mephiles starts by saying "Came back from the future to tell you the answer's Mephiles." Keep this in mind. "If you last to the end of this, then I'll ask what the question is." Meaning 'if you can survive my rap attack, I'll reward you with the knowledge of what the question is that has Mephiles as the answer'. 1:50 "When it comes to villains in the history bins, who's the one that's gonna leave you deep Sonic 06-ed?" This bar completely wraps up the whole mystery of what the question was that he referenced to at the start, which is just chef's kiss writing. This verse was written in such a way because Mephiles is arguably the most confusing time traveler in the entire Sonic franchise, so the fact that Mat4yo wrote the 06 question bar in reverse and said he came from the future just proves that he is one of the most intelligent anime rappers out there. Dan Bull is also one of the smartest, as shown by his haiku bar, amongst other things.
