''Sonic The Hedgehog'' is the [[Darker and Edgier|more serious]] [[Sonic the Hedgehog]] cartoon adaptation made in the 90s, which inspired the [[Sonic the Hedgehog (comics)|Archie Comics series]] that's still ongoing ([[Animation Lead Time|though the comic book came to the consumers first]]). It is very a sharp contrast to its contemporary and [[Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog|much more comedic weekday counterpart]] where Sonic was a drifter [[Walking the Earth|traveling the planet with Tails]]. Also known as ''
The series featured Sonic as a resistance commando, fighting against Dr. Julian Ivo Robotnik, a [[Emperor Scientist|dictator]] who has already enslaved most of the planet Mobius and [[Polluted Wasteland|turned it into a cold, urban, metal nightmare]]. Unlike other versions of the character, Robotnik's armies are comprised of factory-assembled [[Mecha-Mooks|robot shock troops]] rather than from animals trapped in robot shells; said trapped animals underwent [[Unwilling Roboticisation]] and served as forced laborers instead. Also, Sonic is [[The Lancer|not the actual leader of the resistance group, but serves as their most reliable soldier]]. The leader, Sally Acorn, lost her father, while Sonic lost his uncle as one of the mindless robots. The show dealt with much more mature subject matters than other parts of the Sonic franchise, (as well as most mainstream Western Cartoons in general) such as coping with loss and the trials of war.
Despite being an [[In Name Only]] adaptation, the series is still highly regarded by its fans and is critically acclaimed, though to a degree that in recent years has caused a great deal of friction within the notoriously [[Broken Base|broken]] wider Sonic fanbase over how much of its style (if any) should be adopted by modern Sonic works.<ref>
In addition to the aforementioned [[Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog]], this show also should not be confused with the other [[Western Animation|western animated]] series [[Sonic Underground]], the [[Anime]] [[Sonic X]], or the [[OVA]] [[Sonic the Hedgehog The Movie]].
{{tropelist}}
* [[Action Girl]]: Bunnie, Sally, and Dulcy.
Line 162:
** Not really an example, as Julian ''did'' put on a convincing act, and being instrumental in winning the Great War for the Mobians probably earned him a few brownie points as well. Until the King left earshot long enough for Julian to talk about his plans, the main reason viewers know that he's evil is that they already know [[Forgone Conclusion|what he eventually becomes.]]
* [[Humanoid Female Animal]]: All of the females except Dulcy.
* [[Humans Are
* [[An Ice Person]]: Dulcy, who can shoot ice beams through her nose.
* [[Idiosyncratic Episode Naming]]: Every episode in Season 1 (except for the pilot, "Heads or Tails") had "Sonic" in the title. Super Sonic, Ultra Sonic, Hooked on Sonics, etc.
Line 307:
{{quote|"Get that hedgehog! Get him! GET HIM!" }}
* [[Villain World]]
* [[Weaksauce Weakness]]: In one episode, Antoine is being held captive and interrogated by Snively. Antoine insists that Snively can visit whatever horrors he wants upon the beleaguered
* [[We Come in Peace, Shoot to Kill]]: Type 2, with [[Humans Are
* [[Well, Excuse Me, Princess!]]: Sally, to Sonic.
* [[We Need a Distraction]]: Sonic's role in missions often boils down to this. Robotnik hating him so much that all of his robots have Sonic listed as "Priority One" tends to help.
