Sonic X looks great if you just saw the poster. However if you sit down and watch it you will find it's not what it seems to be.
1. The story is pretty awful. For some reason the Chaos Emerald transport Sonic and his friends to Earth (I'm getting Smurfs vibes) and stays with some kid named Chris until he and the others return home. When they do return home soon after two seasons they have to go up to space. The story doesn't fit well with the setting. Why can't the characters be on Mobius? There is so much story potential there and not some clique E.T. rip off. Plus the story hardly focuses around Sonic. It's mostly involving the annoying human character Chris. Why would you name the TV show after the main character but give that character so little time on screen.
2. The worst quality of this is the characters. The voice acting to start with is terrible. Tails sounds like a girl (I know a female does the voice but look at Fairly Odd Parents) Knuckles voice sounds too deep and gruff for him, Sonic sounds very off, Amy has an annoying voice and Chris is just a bothersome to listen to. The characters themselves are all bland stereotypes. Sonic is good, Egg- man is evil, Amy is the fan-girl, Tails is a sidekick, Knuckles is the hot head and Chris is the annoying kid that nobody likes to watch. He can't do anything without Sonic and he adds nothing to the story. He's a worthless character, period.
3. The best part of this is the animation. It's pretty to look at flows well especially with the action sequences.
This has tons of potential to be remade and told right! This proves that just because it looks nice doesn't mean it is. Get rid of the humans, focus on Mobius, get some decent voice actors, get more character development and continue with the good animation and you would have a great show.
Just leave this show alone and watch the 1994 Sonic The Hedgehog cartoon or read the comics. Those didn't waste their potential.
