Not this well.

Since writing that they've also introduced Erazor Djinn/Majin Buu and emeralds being used to wish people back to life.

Being a fan of something prevents you from having any valid opinion about it! DUUUUHHH.

What's there to believe? Whether intentional or not the parallels are there in black and white, and you'd be pressed to find another franchise that you can do that with so easily.

Actually your analysis impressed me. FINE ZETA. FINE FRIEZA.

Still. I'm going to reserve judgement on the werehog being Oozaru until we play it. And sonic and the black knight is certainly not a nod to trunks. Or hell maybe it is. christ.

It's on the page after that post, under the Guest user. And here's the paper if you're curious.

I also doubt it's an intentional Oozaru reference, actually. This game belongs to God of War. Unless you can make him untransform by cutting off his quills, or something.

That's what I meant.

Also Dr. Slump > Dragon Ball.
...Sonic is Arale and Robotnik is Dr. Mashirito! And Tails is Gatchan! It all makes sense now! :PP:

I bet Sega was all like "Hey Nintendo turned Link into a werewolf!, lets turn Sonic into a Werehog!"

Werewolf includes people turning into wolves and wolf-men, not just one or the other.

Sonic unleashed is obviously a homage to altered beast.

The line between "homage" and "desperate cash-in on trendy motif" is apparently mighty blurry these days.

I dunno... how can a mix of Ristar, Altered Beast, Street of Rage and Sonic not be considered so crazy it isn't a lame cash-in?

Seriously. I am so sick of every other rip off being toted as an homage these days.

I bet everyone noticed this, but "Weresonic" looks like a character taken from a Crash Bandicoot game... from FIVE YEARS AGO!

I just saw that and was hoping there'd be more info here. Maybe it's just a character added to the comic?
