There's Something About Knuckles (Part 6)

Amy Rose and the rest of the Sonic Superstars guarding the walled city are furious with Tails: he knew Sonic the Hedgehog was Sonic the Kaiju and the fox never told them at any point while they were trying to make the monster go Sonic BOOM. Now the truth is out, Knuckles the Echidna is determined to venture forth outside the city, boldly going towards Sonic frontiers (one could say), and he has a plan to get his friend back.

This ain’t no Sonic game – and it’s certainly not a Sonic the Hedgehog movie. This is serious business. The kaiju has truly gone Super Sonic and is looking to take down all of the Blue Blur’s pals. But, don’t rule out Knucks and co. This fight isn’t over yet.

    There's Something About Knuckles will return in December!
  • @AscendedEmperor
    We gotta acknowledge how smart Eggman is here he basically was suffering from the deadilest cheese touch imaginable and pulled a 300 IQ play and gave it to Sonic ensuring his arch enemy would be plagued forever.
  • This just proves the sonic cast is infinitely adaptable to any setting. It’s why the storybook games stories were so good.
  • The way Amy and Tails screamed at each other while arguing absolutely destroyed my heart Top-tier voiceacting and dialogue, can't wait for the next part!
  • @davysamir2289
    1:30 The way Tails screamed totally gave the Maniac Tails vibe especially considering how he wants to see Sonic dead just as he wanted it in the other something about season
  • @Jonathan_Collins
    Leave it to MASHED to give 1000% more than they had to for this series. The voice acting, the animation, the drama, it's amazing!
  • Im seriously flabbergastered by Tails' voice and voice actor. Switching voices between normal Tails and SH Tails when Tails gets angry or smth, is a really nice touch on a emotion part.
  • @andre_601
    Man.... Knuckles' one-liners are really nice. Amy: "He's alive" Knuckles: "And boy does he look pissed..."
  • @coyotix
    Every single bit of this series is absolutely incredible. The writing, the voice acting, the animation. The way each character is written is fantastic. Knuckles has realistic anxieties for the situation, but is still his usual strong self. Amy's feelings of betrayal are heartwrenching to watch. Tails is REALLY starting to make me nervous again, I see the Secret History in him. He seems so casual about the Kaiju being the curse, but not about Sonic's "death."
  • @user-mj5jp9hl2u
    Tails yelling even scared Blaze. That’s how you know that that’s unusual.
  • @lunarartist3817
    "boy does he look pissed" damn, that scared-shitless-yet-calm delivery was perfection ✨️
  • I think this series hit harder after Sonic Frontiers, because at the end the gang realize that they needed to improve themselves by distancing from Sonic, at first I tought it was sad but then I remember this series and realize that could if they become dependent on him, their worst flaws (Tails's need of his friendship, Amy obsession and Knuckles need to prove he's better than him) would only get worse over time and consume their entire character. In order to grow something we need to distant ourselves from others that keep us in their shadow, even if it hurts.
  • 6:16 Props to Knuckles for leading the team while the voices continue to plague his mind. That must be difficult. Also, same to the voice actor if you're still going through that. Keep on fighting, soldier. Beat those negative thoughts into the ground.
  • So we're all in agreement that tails is the mastermind behind this whole series, right?
  • @TheTransBlender
    1:19 this entire scene has me waiting for the moment where this part of the "theres something about" series shows its true colours.
  • @mwawadoshanga
    Can we take a moment to imagine just how PAINFUL it would be to have two sharp crystals jammed into your eye sockets?
  • @oneupdawg
    Damn, Knuckles is cool as hell in this series. He's dealing with this own insecurities, and hopefully overcoming them.
  • @igorneves49
    1:45 It seems that every Amy has this capacity for insanity and her eyes turn red. It will be her true personality.
  • Oh God, not only does he look more pissed. He looks...more like Sonic. WHY IS THIS SERIES SO GOOD???
