The Sonic characterization "debate" is so weird.
It's just fans voicing legitimate concerns about the mischaracterization of Sonic, only for an ignorant person who doesn't understand the characters to add something that has no bearing on the discussion at all.

I aint never said people who disagree with me are ignorant! I said that ignorant people will engage in an argument when they don't know what they're talking about, instead of understanding why people want the JP side, they throw insults and random loose evidence.
@ckforbesX
It’s probably because you guys think people who disagree with you are “ignorant”. You are allowed to like sonic, I do too, but the character is changing and it’s most likely staying that way because the main majority like him
@ckforbesX
They do that on purpose to derail the discussion. I just ignore them and block/mute if they're rude.
We can't have meaningful discussions because insecure people want to create strawmen, act obtuse, or be dismissive because some can't accept some choices of writing and…
@ckforbesX
Also hate when ppl get branded as a “Jp purist” as a result just because they have a preference to how sonic was written in the country he was created in
@ckforbesX
Well... The "legimate concern" ... Sometimes yes, but sometimes not
The problem comes when someone doesn't know how to defend what they like, and we only have people who are offended...
For example: I have reasons to say that US Sonic in Frontiers is in-character.
@ckforbesX
Dude. Same here. İ am arguing with people a lot about sonic's characterization.(Ian) and telling people why his Sonic isn't realy Sonic but something else. And people just... Does not want to understand me at all. İn my opinion kishimoto shoud be the writer for the games-

It can feel like that falls in the area of "he acts in a way that please me, so inconsistency doesn't matter as long as i get what i like", but perhaps some just don't care at all.
@ckforbesX
Can’t stand the people who will look at Prime Sonic and Black Knight Sonic and go “yeah they are the same character”.
Not every space is for everybody. If you don’t get it, fine. But don’t undermine legit criticism with “nothing’s changed” because of YOUR narrow understanding
@ckforbesX
No one wants to analyze anymore, just consume and dog pile on anyway who disagrees from the main narrative.
It’s not just Sonic, it affects other fandoms, especially Marvel Comics and Star Wars.
@ckforbesX
You are misunderstood this‘debate’ is so misunderstood although not by me you see, I understand that sonics character is not what you define it as and that ‘sonic’ from sonic 1 is different from sonic from adventure and that sonic from adventure is different from sonic from prime
@ckforbesX
It feels like people don't really focus at that at all, they're more concerned on what's new with the series or what someone has to say about it
