And oh my gOD THE FIGHT SCENES-
Before Sonic 3 came out, there was debate over who would be the one to change Shadow's mind since at that point, there was no solid indication that Amy or Rouge would appear. I was a fan of the idea that maybe they'd have Jojo be the one to remind Shadow of Maria's wish, since she was an established character from the start and fits the profile like a cheerful, caring, and optimistic girl.
However, seeing that in the end they made it so that Sonic was the one who talked to Shadow and convinced him to fight to save the world, surprised me and at the same time fascinated me infinitely more. Because they managed to make the change organic by connecting it with narrative elements that were also raised and developed from the beginning; Sonic's grief over losing Longclaw and his paternal relationship with Tom, making this moment something special and significant for both of them:
It is a moment of connection and understanding between two people who have lost the person who was once the most important in their lives, who loved them when no one else did and gave them a home,
That for a long time they had to deal alone with the pain and guilt of having been the trigger for their deaths but, as they emphasize in the film, While Sonic was able to find a family that would love him and help him get better and cope with that pain, Shadow was alone and the only person he interacted with after awakening, only manipulated him in order to fulfill his revenge.
Until this moment, where Shadow finally meets someone who not only knows his pain perfectly but has also learned to move forward and not let it corrupt him even in the most difficult moments, and who in turn motivates him to do the same.
All of this contributes fantastically to their connection, as it is no longer just that their personalities and ways of acting are opposite, but also the way in which their stories correlate and at the same time distinguish each other, creating a new and emotional parallelism between them: They are two sides of the same coin, two extremes that ultimately come together to bring out the best in each other.
Which is beautifully reflected throughout the final battle. Sonic and Shadow display effortless synergy, supporting each other, backing each other up, and even casually joking around.
A good reminder of the great chemistry and dynamism they used to have years ago. Unlike now that they make it seem like Shadow barely tolerates Sonic, before they both had a friendly rivalry where they respected each other, valued each other and helped each other without problem. And I'm really glad the movie brought back some of that dynamic and reflected it in such a natural and fun way, and I hope that continues for future SCU projects instead of sticking to the current direction.
And I'm not just saying this because I'm a fan of Sonadow, but because I genuinely believe that this is the most natural direction for their relationship after all this time.
Hey everyone, so for those who knew me by my other blog, this is a new one! and here’s some explanation of why I deleted it and for those who felt worried about me.
Basically, I was just simply and mentally deteriorated by this place and felt incredibly pressured and just not well whatsoever engaging in fandoms I’ve thought it would be best to restart and repost my art again if possible.
Hope you understand and thank you for those who support me :)
Some space woody+buzz doodles for ya

Do you think the science side of tumblr could explain why we asexuals are fawning over an animated romantic comedy?

Fan illustration based on a fanfic that told the backstory of Andy's dad getting Woody and his life onward through the toy’s pov. It's called "A Dark Evening in the Fall" by Peach Wookiee on fanfic.net Definitely one of the best but also saddest fics I've ever read. (That it even made me cry in the process 😭) Totally recommend those who would want to read it. Genuinely a beautiful and emotional read. (don’t worry there’s comfort)
