Plot

During a battle with Dr. Eggman, Sonic shatters the Paradox Prism, a crystalline artifact with reality-bending powers. This drastically warps reality and creates the "Shatterverse", a new section of the multiverse with five alternate dimensions called "Shatterspaces", each of them formed by one of the Prism shards and inhabited by alternative versions of Sonic's friends (Tails, Knuckles, Amy Rose, Rouge and Big), but lacking their own versions of him.

Sonic first arrives in New Yoke City, a futuristic dystopian version of Green Hill ruled by a group of Eggman variants who call themselves the Chaos Council and used the power of its shard to conquer it. After learning of the Prism's existence, they seek to conquer the Shatterverse by obtaining all five shards, but are opposed by Sonic and a resistance formed from the City's inhabitants. While attempting to reassemble the Prism and restore his reality, which became the dull and lifeless Ghost Hill following the Prism's shattering, Sonic ventures to other Shatterspaces to retrieve the shards before the council can, including the Boscage Maze, a jungle world with feral versions of his friends; the No Place, a flooded world with pirates; and the Grim, a barren wasteland. Along the way, he befriends the respective versions of his friends and helps them with their problems, including Nine, the New Yoke City version of Tails who has grown bitter and untrusting due to not having Sonic to help him with bullies, Rusty Rose, the New Yoke City version of Amy who was converted into a cyborg by the Chaos Council and struggles to figure out her loyalties, and Dread, the No Place version of Knuckles whose obsession with claiming his realm's shard as his personal treasure ends up alienating him with his crew. Later, Sonic's rival Shadow, who managed to avoid Green Hill's destruction by using Chaos Control, reluctantly agrees to help him. Once the Chaos Council's plans for domination begin to endanger the Shatterverse, the natives of each world join the war against them and work with their counterparts.

Eventually, the Paradox Prism is reassembled, but Nine, worried that restoring the primary universe could destroy the Shatterverse and out of anger at Sonic for projecting the original Tails onto him, takes the Prism for himself, wanting to use it to terraform the Grim into a new home. However, use of its power threatens the stability of the other Shatterspaces. Believing that the remaining Prism energy from Sonic's body could be the key to stabilizing the Prism, he creates an army of robotic versions of Sonic and his friends to hunt him down and extract it from him, although it will kill him in the process. This forces Sonic, Shadow and the rest of the Shatterverse's inhabitants to form a truce with the Chaos Council to stop Nine. Ultimately, after a climatic battle, Sonic and Nine make amends after the latter realizes the consequences of his actions, Rusty sides with the resistance after bonding with the other Amy variants: Thorn Rose and Black Rose, Dread lets go of his obsession and appoints Black as the new captain of the crew, and the Chaos Council are banished to the void for their misdeeds. Sonic then decides to use his energy to restore Green Hill and stabilize the Shatterspaces, allowing them and their inhabitants to continue existing, although doing so nearly kills him. After saying goodbye to the Shatterverse denizens, Shadow gets Sonic to the gateway in time and they return to the battle with Eggman before the shattering, and manage to stop him from obtaining the Prism.

While fighting his arch-nemesis, Dr. Eggman, Sonic the Hedgehog destroys the Paradox Prism, an ancient artifact with immense power. This causes a ripple in the space-time continuum, separating Sonic from his friends and sending him to New Yoke City (pun on New York City), a dystopian version of Green Hill in a parallel universe ruled by the Chaos Council, a group made up of five Eggman variants (Dr. Babble, Dr. Done It, Dr. Deep, Dr. Don't, and Mr. Dr. Eggman). While traveling through his new surroundings, Sonic discovers he has absorbed the Paradox Prism's energy, but his equipment is unable to handle this power. He encounters Nine, a variant of his best friend Tails who constructed mechanized tails to fight back against his childhood bullies due to not having Sonic to help him. Sonic earns Nine's trust and he modifies Sonic's shoes and gloves to attune to his newfound powers. However, Sonic and Nine are captured and Sonic is taken for tests run by Rusty Rose, a variant of Amy Rose turned into a subservient cyborg. When the Council threatens Nine, Sonic pushes his powers to the max, causing him to generate a massive amount of energy. However, he notices what seems to be a hallucination of his rival Shadow the Hedgehog during the surge and flashbacks to an earlier confrontation with him.

22"The Yoke's On You"Erik WieseMan of Action & Erik WieseDecember 15, 2022 (2022-12-15)
In a flashback, Shadow receives a vision of Sonic causing the world to shatter after feeling the impact he caused when he attacked Eggman's Badniks. Shadow questions Sonic's actions and attempts to stop him from reaching Eggman to prevent the impending catastrophe. However, his hostile tactics and cryptic warnings make Sonic misunderstand his intention, and they fight before Sonic slows him down enough to reach Eggman. Back in the present, Sonic's energy surge creates an electromagnetic pulse that causes New Yoke City to temporarily black out and causing the Council to realize it could be a source of power. They come to the decision to dissect Sonic and strip him of his powers. However, resistance fighters Rebel Rouge and Renegade Knucks, variants of Rouge the Bat and Knuckles the Echidna, arrive and rescue him and Nine, but are cornered by Rusty Rose and the Badniks.
33"Escape From New Yoke"Erik WieseMan of Action & Erik WieseDecember 15, 2022 (2022-12-15)
After destroying most of the Badniks, Sonic, Nine, and the Resistance decide to take the opportunity to steal the "Crystal" that gives the Council supreme power. Nine successfully takes over Rusty Rose's programming, making her fight alongside them. When closing in on the power source's location, Sonic and Nine are separated from Rebel, Knucks, and Rusty who buy them time by fighting against the enemy while Sonic and Nine get the power source. It is revealed that the Crystal is a shard of the Paradox Prism, and Sonic realizes that he caused the world to change after he destroyed the Paradox Prism. Sonic refrains from touching the shard, but does so at Nine's insistence, sending him to another universe.
44"Unwelcome to the Jungle"Erik Wiese & Kiran SangherraBrittany Jo FloresDecember 15, 2022 (2022-12-15)
Sonic is sent to the jungle world of Boscage Maze, where he meets Prim, Hangry, Gnarly, and Mangey, feral versions of Rouge, Big the Cat, Knuckles, and Tails who live in the trees in fear of a "monster" down below. They decide to use Sonic's speed to distract the monster long enough to get food and falsely promise Sonic they will help him find a shard of the Paradox Prism in exchange. While looking for food, the monster drives them away and leaves Sonic to face it alone. It is revealed to be Thorn Rose, a variant of Amy, and her giant bird, Birdie. Thorn explains that Prim and the others are scavengers who have ravaged the jungle, so she is fighting them to protect it. During the fight, Thorn notices the light from Sonic's shoes is similar to "The Great Green". Believing it to be a shard of the prism, Sonic convinces Thorn to escort him to it by promising he will leave afterward. The Great Green that Thorn refers to is actually a coconut tree that Sonic recognizes from his world, empowered by the Prism Shard. Sonic digs the Shard out from beneath the tree using his gear, but Thorn deems him as another scavenger and claims it.
55"Barking Up The Wrong Tree"Erik WiesePatricia VillettoDecember 15, 2022 (2022-12-15)
Sonic tries to grab the shard from Thorn, who uses its powers to make the jungle impenetrable for the scavengers, but fails and is forced to retreat. Sonic decides to persuade the scavengers to make peace with Thorn, but they reveal that they and Thorn were once friends until she became disgusted at their abuse of the natural resources and grew obsessed with protecting the forest, driving them away. Sonic arranges for both sides to meet up and talk, but the scavengers seize the opportunity to attack her instead. Realizing that the only way to get the two sides to make peace is by making Thorn see the harm she has done to the jungle after noticing that the coconut tree has withered due to lack of sunlight, Sonic tricks Thorn into fighting him. He then knocks her hammer and the shard through the branches, revealing the condition of the tree and healing it. This helps Thorn realize the error of her ways and reveal her side of the scavengers' story; she tried to warn them about their abuse, but they ignored her, eventually causing her to snap and attack them, which she later came to regret. This leads her to reconcile with the scavengers, who also agree to help conserve the environment. Sonic goes to get the shard, but after coming into contact with it, warps to another dimension.
66"Situation: Grim"Erik WieseMarcus RinehartDecember 15, 2022 (2022-12-15)
Sonic is rocketed back to the war-torn New Yoke and learns that weeks have passed there since his departure. It is revealed that after he vanished, Nine fled with the shard, leaving Knucks and Rebel at the Badniks' mercy, with Rusty returning to her original programming. As a result, Rebel and the Resistance are distrustful of Sonic. After he is taken to the Resistance's hideout, Rebel shows Sonic their version of the coconut tree, the only natural tree left and a symbol of the life they deserve. The Chaos Council tracks Sonic's position through the traces of the shard's energy from him and attacks the Resistance's hideout. Nine appears in an airship powered by the Shatter Drive, a machine that allows him to use the stolen shard's powers to open portals between the Shatterverse, the void between the worlds, which he calls Shatterspaces. Nine takes Sonic with him to a barren Shatterspace called the Grim, where he intends to rebuild the world and their lives. Sonic refuses to abandon the rebels and Nine reluctantly sends him back to New Yoke, but has a change of heart and joins them. While Sonic and the Resistance successfully defeat the Eggforcers attacking them, the Chaos Council unleashes their flying fortress, the Mothership, and captures Nine.
77"It Takes One to No Place"Erik WieseOmar SpahiDecember 15, 2022 (2022-12-15)
While searching for Nine, Sonic sees an apparent apparition of Shadow, who managed to escape the universe's shattering using Chaos Control, but is now trapped in the void, telling him to keep going. His Shatter-boosted powers kick in and teleport him into another Shatterspace, the deep seas of No Place, where he meets Batten, Sails, Black Rose, and Catfish; pirate versions of Rouge, Tails, Amy, and Big led by the legendary pirate Knuckles the Dread. They welcome Sonic into their crew, as they find his speed useful, and he helps them defeat Dread's former crew. Dread explains that he was a feared pirate who, along with his former crew, aimed for a treasure called the Devil's Lighthouse, which is actually a shard of the Paradox Prism. However, they ended up shipwrecked and Dread's former crew deserted him. Sonic insists on getting the shard, so Dread makes him the captain. Rusty Rose and a group of Eggforcers unexpectedly arrive on a submarine and attack the pirates.

Meanwhile, in No Place, Sonic and the pirates attempt to fight back against Rusty Rose. After replicating the Prism energy compass mod from Sonic's sneakers to find the Shard, Rusty prepares to destroy them, but hesitates and leaves after seeing her Pirate counterpart. As the ship begins to sink, Sonic convinces the runaway Dread to return, and after realizing that succeeding where he failed would restore his reputation, he resumes command and sails to the Devil's Lighthouse. While Sonic and the pirates defeat and capture Rusty, Dread, obsessed with getting the Shard, is ambushed by Badniks and knocked off the mountain. Sonic saves him before touching the shard and disappearing back into the Void. He is confronted by Shadow, who reveals that their original universe no longer exists because of Sonic's actions.

After Sonic is sent back into the Void, Shadow finally confronts him and tells him that he destroyed their reality by shattering the Prism and can teleport himself by amplifying the Prism energy in his body when he uses his speed. After explaining his situation, Shadow takes Sonic to the Prism's resting place in Ghost Hill, where a shard is located, and explains that he believes bringing the shards to this world and connecting them could restore their main universe. However, refusing to trust Sonic and Nine, Shadow decides to take Sonic's regulators and find the shards himself. Sonic and Shadow clash throughout Ghost Hill before Shadow returns to the Void, with Sonic gaining control of his Prism energy and pursuing him. When they both see the Chaos Council's mothership heading for Boscage Maze, Shadow unsuccessfully attempts to follow after it.

Nine infuses Sonic with more Prism energy to match the Titan's and destroy it. After the battle, Sonic sees that Green Hill is still not restored, and Nine reveals that there is a Shard in the Grim. He also reveals that he never truly intended to help Sonic restore his world and that he needed the Ghost Prism as a blueprint to use the Paradox Prism to turn the Grim into a new home. Sonic tries to convince him otherwise, since he thought Nine would see things the same way as Tails would. However, Nine, believing that he and the rest of the Shatterverse would disappear if he restored Sonic's original universe, berates Sonic for his recklessness, which resulted in the shattering of his reality, and for not considering others' feelings. Deciding he can trust no one but himself, Nine betrays Sonic and takes the shards for himself before leaving for the Grim, leaving a betrayed and depressed Sonic and a vengeful Shadow alone on the mountain.

Sonic apologizes to Nine for his actions, causing him to relent and realize the error of his ways. After Sonic urges him to find a solution to the matter, Nine suggests draining the sliver of energy from Sonic to restore the Prism, but warns him that he may cease to exist. Despite this, Sonic agrees, siphoning his Prism energy and destroying the reactors on his gear. With the Prism fixed, the Chaos Council double-cross the group to take it, but Sonic lures them into quarrelling over who should get control of it, allowing the denizens to catch them off guard and banish them into the Void. With a gateway to Green Hill open, the Shatterverse denizens part ways with Sonic before helping him reach the gateway. Running low on time, Shadow carries Sonic to the gateway before he fades from existence, returning him back to the battle in the cave moments before he shattered the Prism. Happy to see his old friends and arch-enemy again, Sonic cooperates with them and they defeat Eggman, before Shadow arrives and teleports himself and the Prism away to an unknown location, foiling Eggman's plot. Later, as Sonic has a picnic with his friends and plans to recount his adventures through the Shatterverse, a large shockwave occurs, and a large unknown enemy appears, sending Team Sonic into battle once again.

Production

Sonic Prime was officially announced in February 2021, [15] though the development of the series was initially revealed in a deleted tweet in December 2020. [16] [17] The series has 23 episodes overall. [18] [19] [20] Colleen O'Shaughnessey, known for portraying Miles "Tails" Prower since 2014, responded to a tweet on Twitter that she would not be reprising the role in the Netflix series, due to Canadian content and union laws meaning that a large portion of voice actors portraying roles in Canadian television programs have to be Canadian. [21] [1] In May 2022, it was announced that Deven Mack would voice the titular character for the series. [10]

The series is made by Man of Action and WildBrain Studios, in their second collaboration on a video game based series after Mega Man: Fully Charged , along with Netflix Animation and Sega's animation studio Marza Animation Planet. One of the writers, Duncan Rouleau, stated that the series will be set in "the video game universe created by Sonic Team" and that "possible Sega crossovers are not ruled out." [22] [ better source needed ] According to executive producer Logan McPherson, the series is canon to the games' timeline. [23] In June 2021, concept art of the series was discovered on a now deleted artist's portfolio. [24]

Duncan Rouleau later confirmed that Ian Flynn, who has written for the Archie, Boom , IDW series and the newly released Sonic Frontiers , would be a consultant. [25] Additionally, The Willoughbys director Kris Pearn worked on the series as a creative consultant with My Little Pony: Equestria Girls director Ishi Rudell as an episodic director.

Reception

Audience viewership

On December 20, 2022, Netflix announced that Sonic Prime was ranked number five of the top 10 on English television to be watched with 27.7 million hours watched between December 12 and 18. [29] [30]

Critical response

Sonic Prime received generally positive reviews from critics with praise given to the voice acting, story, and animation; but some criticized its writing, with a few calling it "repetitive". On Rotten Tomatoes, season one holds a 60% approval rating based on reviews from 5 critics, with an average score of 6.3/10. [31]

Polly Conway of Common Sense Media said that it is a fun, frenetic animated series that touts teamwork but that it features violence. [32] Kennet Seward Jr of IGN gave season one a score of 8 out of 10, calling it a "fun and family-friendly" show for new and old fans, said "Sonic Prime is a fun and overall entertaining, family-friendly show. Sitting tonally between the 1993 Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog and 93’ Sonic the Hedgehog – which features a similar 'freedom fighters seeking to overthrow a cruel leader' vibe – it offers an exciting look at the past while presenting some new ideas. It has some issues concerning pacing and the abrupt ending of the first season won't do it any favors. That said, Sonic Prime should be well received by new and longtime franchise fans." [33]

Joshua Kristian Mccoy of Game Rant gave Prime 3.5 out of 5, labeling it "very good" and also calling it a lot of fun: "Sonic Prime is yet another argument for Sonic as a TV star first and a game character second. Sonic fans will love the showcase for their favorite characters and the fast-paced action. Despite some weak writing and a bit too much repetition, Sonic Prime is a lot of fun. Enjoy the Blue Blur's journey into the multiverse." [34]
