So since it’s Valentine’s day, I figured
I’d shed some light on why I love the characters I do so much. (This is what I
do when I have no actual Valentine to talk about. XD)
Why do I love this speedy blue hero so
much? To be perfectly honest, it’s not just one thing, and there are so many
things I love about Sonic that when a friend of mine asked me last week why I
loved him so much, I didn’t have a good
answer for her! *gasp* Here are a FEW of the many reasons why I love Sonic the
Hedgehog:
He’s a great person all-around. Sonic’s
view on the war with Robotnik have changed over the years and in his four TV
series, but his opinion about friendship and loyalty haven’t changed one bit.
Sonic is always there for his friends. He would never betray them and, as he
has proven several times over, would give his life to save any one of them.
He’s also got a great personality: optimistic, energetic, happy, and, as
always, funny. Very rarely do you see him angry. This makes him a great role
model, too. Then, of course there are his quotes. Sonic the Hedgehog, quite
simply, has got the best quotes in the entire universe. My favorites include:
“When you have time to worry, then run.”
(Sonic the Hedgehog 2006) This is probably his most famous quote. Every Sonic
fan knows this quote, whether they know where it’s from or not. Since I own the
game, I know where it’s from. :)
“Just smile.” (Sonic the Hedgehog 2006)
“Nothing starts until you take action.”
(Sonic the Hedgehog 2006)
“I just got to do what I’ve got to do.
That’s all.” (Sonic and the Black Knight)
To sum things up, Sonic is the most
way-past-cool hedgehog ever created, and with luck they will still be coming
out with Sonic games and TV shows when I’m 100 years old. (And I’ll still
scream like a fangirl, just like I do now!) I hear they’re coming up with a new
game in which Sonic and Shadow have to work TOGETHER! That would be so totally
awesome! :D
First off, I love Leonardo because he is an
excellent leader and brother. In every series you watch, he is always there for
his family and friends when they need him, no matter the personal cost (as was
proven in “The Shredder Strikes Back” from TMNT 2003 and again in “The Alien
Agenda” from TMNT 2012.)
Second, I love Raphael (the most, I admit)
because he taught me that it’s okay to be angry as long as you can control it.
Anyone who watches TMNT or reads the comics knows that Raphael is a total
hothead, meaning he can blow up over anything (and does, quite often). Watching
this happen continuously and then watching him turn around and calm himself and
apologize inspired me to do the same. I love Raph because I can relate to him
the most of the four turtles. That, and he has some really awesome quotes, too.
Third, I love Donatello because of his
intelligence. The things this guy comes up with as far as attack plans and
gadgets are just awesome. It’s also neat to hear him talk about things because
you can really learn from him.
Finally, there’s Michelangelo. I love Mikey
because he’s just so funny! I LOVE the 2003 version of him. Every other word
out of his mouth has me laughing out loud. I’d tell you what my favorite of
all-time is, but it would take too long to write here. Instead I’ll have you
watch “Meet Casey Jones” from TMNT 2003 and keep an eye out for when Mikey is
sent to hang up the sign. Funniest thing ever!
Then, to wrap things up here, there is
Master Splinter. He’s a cool teacher. I think I’ve learned more about Japan
from listening to his stories and instruction and from watching TMNT than I have
in school. How awesome is that?
There are too many characters to elaborate,
but I love this show in general because of all the adventures there are! If
you’re ever looking for some great action/drama/romance/mystery/semi-horror,
this is the place for you. The HyperForce covers practically every genre. They
travel to the ends of the universe to tell you the story of Shuggazoom and
unravel the mysteries surrounding each of the individual characters, as well as
the team as a whole. My favorite episodes are in the last part of Season 3 and
entire Season 4 because it really offers a close look at each member of the
HyperForce and their relationships with each other. And, for the record, the
season finale is AMAZING. Betrayal from within! Dun-dun-DUN! XD
So yeah. I think that covers everything. I
just love being a nerd. C:
