@@TheRealRustyIsHere dog you gotta be dog levels of intelligence sage looks nothing like infinite she’s literally human and he’s an animal 😂 what are you talking about?
Honestly that ending made me feel really bad for knuckles, like I already feel more emotion in a animation prologue for sonic frontiers then all of sonic forces
I’m still really sad about the missed story potential for that, 06, and Shadow The Hedgehog. They didn’t HAVE to be bad: imagine if Sonic’s first level after the tutorial was him making an escape… and then instead of a goal ring, the level ends with him slamming into the Cell wall, never having actually broken free to begin with. Or maybe if the custom character were designed as a sleeper agent by Eggman, only to turn against their master, even if it could cost them their life 06 honestly could have just been made better if Elise were less boring. The Ice princess idea is sensible, but she’s more macguffin than human because of it. What if she was normally calm, but occasionally, the embers of Iblis’ power leaked out, when she was really pushed up against the wall? Or what if she took on an attitude or not really caring if she died, or caring about much of anything, effectively telling Eggman to go screw himself, and just all around having a bit of “Fire” to her.
I like the direction they're taking to include the lore of sonic adventure and make the echidna ruin's connected to the plot of frontiers. I love the idea of exploring the echidna lore, and I can't wait to see how they connect to the game's lore
I’m hoping for a small, subtle connection to Unleashed as well: the Gaia Temples having the capacity to heal the emeralds and Vice versa seems almost too perfect.
also the IDW series,don't forget the sweet sweet IDW series and also some Archie but Archie was so different from the games so I don't really take it into account
I’m just happy to hear Knuckles with some serious, but not “that’s why it’s called war” lines again. I know the first part isn’t entirely the fault of the dialogue writers, since knuckles hasn’t been IN a lot of serious story games with voice acting since Black Knight (kinda), but you get my point: he really CAN act
2:50 Everyone wants a series animated like this, it's just this sort of animation is *exponentially* more expensive to produce than 3D. I'm not sure if it's feasible to make an entire animated series of this quality in terms of return on investment, but I could be absolutely wrong. I think a series animated like this could do exceedingly well if the writing was solid, especially with the recent success of Castlevania's animated series.
A fun example is Rise of TMNT, it has insanely beautiful animation- especially the fight scenes, but I don’t think it did well. I wonder how much money went into the animation and how well the payoff was
@@nemi9217 It didn't do well because of Nickelodeon and the old TMNT fans, not because of the animation. I think if a Sonic series were to be made with this type of animation, it probably would get invested heavily thanks to the IP behind it.

I always wondered where the Chaos Emeralds came from. In SA1's flashbacks it was implied the Chaos Emeralds, Master Emerald, and the Chaos were living there on Angel Island prior to the Knuckles Tribe, and their leader (forgot his name) was unaware of what they could do. Chaos was a mutated Chao that used the Emeralds' power to protect the Emeralds to fall on the tribe's hands. Tikal protected the Emeralds because she befriended the Chaos and knew the shrine was important to them. It seems Frontiers will expand on the Chaos Emeralds lore and tie with Knuckles' backstory from Sonic 3, SA1 and SA2. Sega has been doing a lot of house cleaning regarding the games' lore with Tails Tuber and re-explaining things from way back the Dreamcast era.
Knuckles is actually amazingly portrayed here! I love the flashbacks to Tikal and Pachacmac, the Chao in the Sky Sanctuary felt like a Bait and Switch and honestly I found that funny and silly, I wish we could get more of these kinds of cutscenes/animations, Tyson Hesse, Tee Lopes and everyone deserve a special thanks!
Tyson was just the director for this specific animation. IAN is in charge of the story for Frontiers. If you read the IDW comics, this may be a great story.
This was so good, animation is fantastic (I want to see a sonic series like this) and the music is beautiful. Makes me happy seeing Knuckles shine. At first he wasn’t one of my favourites, but over time I really appreciate and enjoy him. This gets me so hype too, so many questions… all the references too are real nice. ❤
God this Short is so cool It makes me really want a Knuckles Game (or at least a game where you play as him) based on exploring angel island in 3D I know Sega are committed on this "open zone" stuff But a Open World Angel island with playable Knuckles would be so damn Cool
6:49 *ian flynn is doing the story (he also did the one for the prologue animation) so we'll be getting a consistent knuckles and other characters in frontiers
According to Ian Flynn, SEGA says that Knuckles doesn't let anyone else watch the Emerald, and the 2022 IDW annual shows that Knuckles takes breaks to go exploring and stuff.
I love how they’re not only bringing back focus on the history of the Echidna Tribe but also connections to the classic games through Sky Sanctuary.(what else could those floating ruins be but Sky Sanctuary?)
I so desperately hope that Sonic will not be the only playable character. They acknowledged Knuckles' existence, and this clearly has something to do with the backstory behind Angel Island, this would be a good game to at least let us play as Knuckles and/or Tails as well as Sonic.
The best part of this animation was Knuckle’s characterization imo. In the games, he’s been an absolute dumbass for the past 10+ years, so it’s nice to see him get his old style in the games again. Plus, I really liked the deep questions he was asking at the beginning, showing it is possible for him to have those deep thoughts when he isn’t punching robots to smithereens.
THIS! This is the Knuckles we all know and love! Divergence is a beautifully animated and compelling animated short that captures the true essence of Knuckles as a character and the lore of Sonic perfectly. The great callbacks to SA1 and how Sky Sanctuary and Angel Island are going to be connected to the Starfall Islands is just incredible. This is truly something special we have here. The Sonic Renaissance is here!
The fact that Tikal is officially acknowledged to still be around is amazing to me 😃. Maybe she watches over Knuckles while he’s on break or resting, like a secret second guardian along with Chaos while their chilling in the Emerald, you never know… 🤔
thanks again for the incredibly meaningful and deep commentary such as "yo he just hit him with a rock and he fell off the cliff" and "so it looks like knuckles is trapped at the beginning of sonic frontiers" choctopus
4:20 That's the same as the "if people like baths, then why do they avoid rain?" argument. The difference is consent, and the feeling. If I don't expect to be teleported, then I'll be pretty startled. Especially if this teleporting feels like being digitized or something
you mean Ian Flynn is doing the story, Tyson Hesse is the animation director, he's basically the one who saved the sonic movie way back when and has made all these great animated shorts including Sonic Mania Adventures and the Origins Cutscenes
I do want Chao’s back. I love the DC memory card integration back in the day. I actually carried it around with me a few times. I wonder if they could do something like the Pokémon Pokéball controller for the Let’s Go games. Pretty sure I’m enough of a nerd to to shell out some money for something that feels like a good figet toy in my pocket but let’s me carry around a Chao buddy to train.
6:42 "I am really happy that tyson is doing the story" BRO 😭😭😭IAN IS BEHIND THE SCRIPT WRITING NOT TYSON (story was already finished before Ian started his work on it - he is just the script writer and refiner of what's already been set)
This seems to be implying that the ancients of the Starfall Islands created the Master Emerald shrine, maybe even the Master Emerald itself, and that Angel Island and Sky Sanctuary were originally their settlements. That would be crazy if true cause it would give us a center piece for so many plots in the series. Perhaps they syphoned energy from Light Gaia to create the Emeralds causing an imbalance during the awakening and giving Dark Gaia the monstrous form we see in Unleashed. Then to prevent the world's destruction they created the Gaia Colossus to give Light Gaia the means to fight it.
@Choctopus they confirmed that Sonic would be the only playable character. They ALSO said that they wanted to do paid dlc for this game, so maybe you and I both will get to play as our short tempered red friend.
I'm assuming you haven't seen the recent gameplay and cutsences because of how little you know but it's good you're saving it for the full game Unfortunately I am weak and have seen all the leaks...
@@Choctopus I have too, on the off-chance it is a really good game, i'll want to go in as blind as possible, since a really good Sonic game is a big deal for me as I've waited over a decade for one.
I like to think sometimes Sonic or Tails will give Knuckles a break and watch the Emerald for him. Rouge offers occasionally, but Knuckles knows better than to make that mistake. They should make a Sonic animation where Tails builds Knuckles a security system but Eggman hacks it immediately.
Yes Knuckles put the gear in the slot and was teleported, but he wasn't aware it was doing that, he expected it to vaporize him or something, now he's on the alert thinking Egg Man is up to his old schemes again. It's not only perfectly on par with how Knuckles would act, but perfectly reasonable to think anyone who know this series would react.
I thought that Sonic Frontier new enemies looks so jarring and out of nowhere. Too futuristic. But if it was because they were the inheritance of Knuckles' old tribe, then that make sense. Because Knuckles tribe were separated into two. And the other one is basically an Atlantis a.k.a modern technology, more modern than even nowadays technology Anyway, I'm just so happy that this is the year of Serious Kncukles. First movies, now game? Thank u sega, for giving him the respect he deserved TwT
Love the Knuckles voice acting. I thought for a moment that it was a different actor, but I think it’s still Travis Willingham and they’ve just given him the opportunity to play a more serious performance as opposed to the goofier Knuckles we’ve had recently.
Fun fact: if you listen closely at 1:40 you can hear the lemotif of knuckles theme from sonic and knuckles And at 2:12 you can hear the motif of sky sanctuary

Hoping that this'll be the golden age of the Sonic series, because the sneak peeks are looking the cleanest they've been in at least a decade
this would be more of a renissance since Sonic 2/3&K to SA2B/Sonic Heroes is already the golden age.
Edit: forgot an S in Renissance
You cant imagine how much i hope that's the truth. Sadly i got no lower level anymore to get disappointed further with sonic games.
trust me, it will be not, Sonic is so varid that's just not gonna happen. but I belive this is gonna be a pretty decent decade.

sonic generations is about as good as unleashed so i suggest you give it a try but after that the series goes stale

very happy with Powerhouse studio’s animation. I’ve been loving them since Castlevania and seeing this really makes me want a full series by them
1:10 in one of the japanese sonic twitter take over things, it is shown that because knuckles isn't currently on angel island Amy took his shift.
Beautiful animation. Hopefully the story elements are in that art style
If the game can be as much quality as this prologue, I think we could be in business
I love how they’re not only bringing back focus on the history of the Echidna Tribe but also connections to the classic games through Sky Sanctuary.(what else could those floating ruins be but Sky Sanctuary?)
“I do things on my own and that’s just how I like it. I don’t need anyone else to get by”
“But sometimes…”
Can't wait for choc to play it
1:09 No, Knuckles just leaves the Master Emerald unprotected either whenever Sonic needs his help, or whenever he feels like it.
I mean we literally see just saw Knuckles ditch the Master Emerald to go to Sky Sanctuary.

BRO WHY DOES THIS RHYME SO WELL
this prologue singhandly fixed my favorite character and I couldn't be happier of that fact
this was so sick
I think Knuckles prevents anyone from exploring Angel island. Other than himself
This seems to be implying that the ancients of the Starfall Islands created the Master Emerald shrine, maybe even the Master Emerald itself, and that Angel Island and Sky Sanctuary were originally their settlements. That would be crazy if true cause it would give us a center piece for so many plots in the series. Perhaps they syphoned energy from Light Gaia to create the Emeralds causing an imbalance during the awakening and giving Dark Gaia the monstrous form we see in Unleashed. Then to prevent the world's destruction they created the Gaia Colossus to give Light Gaia the means to fight it.
Aside from the movie, this is the best representation of Knuckles we’ve gotten in roughly a decade. They brought our boy back!
4:26 keep in mind, that door teleporter was different than the usual, I mean he's not even on his island anymore
People in 2017 wouldn’t believe us if we told them the next game we’d get would be the most promising game since generations
