I wouldn’t be surprised if Shadow came out as gay.
Unless it was aimed at anyone outside of Sonic.
And Big is an Aroace in a platonic life partnership with Froggy, and I refuse to believe otherwise.
My personal tier list:
Where’s Antoine the escargot aficionado? He’d be in not surprised.
Edit wow apparently Bunnie is his wife. I’ve been living a lie this whole time
I only included characters from the games because if I hadn’t I’d be here all day.
GIVE ROTOR
Rotor is canonically gay. I don’t even have to rank him.
I mean you have a section for Canonical Breeders. Which I guess means they’re always pushing Snaps onto people?
Does it say anywhere it’s a guy? But also him not caring either way is enough to prove your point.
I… Need to watch more of this because what is this video. I guess a promo event for that game? I don’t know why it feels so out of place to me for a Sonic game.
The twitter takeovers are game promo events where the voice actors answer twitter questions in character; realshadowfan01 is an actual guy on twitter. Sega’s recently been having fun with sonic ‘canon’ outside of serious game plots (eg one of the gags in the takeovers about Shadow eating coffee beans with a spoon was referenced in the Murder of Sonic the Hedgehog)
why tf would sonic surprise you more than charmy
charmy is like the straightest male ever, like in 10 years you know he is going to become a frat boy, and as for sonic… even putting fanfic aside, I don’t know if you’ve seen how sonic has looked at Amy in any of the games where she has a crush on him…
Sega has a bunch of mandates regarding how Sonic is allowed to behave, so there’s meta reason for his placement. They don’t even let him cry, so coming out of the closet would be enormous.
TBH, I didn’t know what to do with Charmy, since Team Chaotix doesn’t really get that much development. I stuck him in the middle just to be safe.
sonic canonically coming out as gay? sure, that would surprise me a ton.
any of the sonic cast canonically coming out as gay would surprise me a ton. sega’s not really that sort of company. but if we’re within the realm of headcanoning characters as gay based on how they act…
“All I’m sayin’ is, I’ve never seen a straight hedgehog deepthroat a chilli dog.”
Heavily tongue in cheek, but I don’t disagree. I think he’d happily let Knuckles search for his “Master Emerald”.
My original idea was “If Sega decided one of these characters is gay tomorrow, who is it going to be?”. It morphed into the list you see before you. I took into account both actions and how Sega treats them, as well as just general vibes.
The bat obv goes with girls as well, at least for attention
I didn’t say that it was a tier list based on how surprised I’d be if they came out as Bisexual, now did I? Strictly gay.
