#and was like wait lemme fix this

I love Sonic Boom but the amount of damage that series has done to how people perceive the characters, particularly Knuckles? Omg.

The show has been over for like 5 years and yet people still panic at any clip or scene that dares to portray Knuckles making a mistake or a joke as him being written like his boom counterpart.

There used to be a time where Knuckles was allowed to be gullible, hotheaded, and have jokes and nobody would ever say he was OOC because it was all part of his personality. But for several years now whenever Knuckles isn’t just being a brute and shows more sides to his character, in media that isn’t even Boom, suddenly he’s dumb and “ugh he’s just boom!knuckles now.” It’s ridiculous.

Yes, Sonic Boom is meant to be a comedy so a certain aspect of every character is heightened but we’ve reached a point where if a character shows that aspect at all in other media almost instantly people are making comparisons to Boom even though those are alternate versions of the characters that we aren’t supposed to take seriously.
